I should point out that the Pokemon (Jigglypuff and Lucario) were accidentally revealed in a trailer, during part showing off Stickers (One of the stickers was only usable by Pokemon, so the Jigglypuff and Lucario icons were displayed along the bottom. Ness was revealed in the same way.)

So it wasn't so much a "My dad works at nintendo guiz, look at dis" as a "Hey, pause the trailer and look! They messed up!"

From what I've heard (not verified), Wii Fit Trainer and the others were leaked hours before the E3 presentation. Pokemon from XY and Chorus Kids were also leaked hours before the April Direct.

That's been known to happen. When Marvel Vs Capcom 3 was coming out, most characters were "leaked" right before being officially confirmed - though that game did have a different major leak that listed all the characters way ahead of time as well.

[up]Although that one wasn't a "leak" as much as a goddamn dam breaking down to pieces. The characters were spoiled by the official site for chrissakes!

Interestingly, I don't think there was any credible leak regarding Rosalina, meaning even if the Chorus Kids leak is true, there still may be some surprises.

"Pokémon from XY" is really, really vague. Part of me wonders how it's possible to wind up with a bunch of specific characters... and then something that cryptic.

[up] Many theorize he got his information during the development stages. X/Y was still in development, and they didn't get the exact Pokemon from Gamefreak yet. So that could've just been literally what it said.

Also, anything changes during development, which is why if the leaker says "they'll appear at this date", that could be changed without them knowing.

It doesn't help credibility, but it should be kept in mind.

I'm sorry, but what exactly are the "Chorus Kids"? I haven't been following up with the rumors and leaks lately.

[up]Oh, those? I'll admit that I'll be pretty upset if one of them was a playable character. They seem to be better suited for an AT or stage element role.

On that "leak". Well, the guy predicted representation for two of Nintendo's most prominent franchises without prior playable representation, either the first or second-most-requested Assist Trophy character (Little Mac), and a range of over 100 different characters. Forgive me if I'm not impressed.

I have a message from another time...

What would a moveset look like for the Chorus Kids though? I haven't played Rhythm Heaven, but given its subject matter, the Chorus Kids would incorporate singing and music into its hypothetical moveset, plus unlike Rosalina/Luma and the Ice Climbers, they'll be a 3-in-1 character that share the screen together.

I've seen some people suggest that they get Musical Gameplay, and get bonuses based on how well they keep to the rhythm of the background music.

no items, battlefield, Chorus Kids only, main theme only

I was talking to someone about Smash, and I brought up the time I hurt an opponent with a headless hammer stick. I made video of the happening some years back and just remembered it today.

You put some messages too close to the top. When I have the video paused, I can't see them.

[up][up]The Direct already said that Pit would be powered up to make up for his gliding going away. I wouldn't worry.tongue

So, you guys think gliding is totally gone, or only gone for Pit?

I sure said that!
