Sounds like obvious DLC to me. Paid is the real question at this point to me.
Anyway, the Ganondorf reveal was from an official Japanese commercial. Basic Nintendo slip-up. I don't count the Dark Pit thing as a good way to say "he was teased". Mr. Game & Watch was fairly obvious to come back anyway, and the Wario slip-up is logical.
I'm not counting leaks and such when I say any of this, of course. That said, it's a cool fansite, at least.

Yeah, what would count more as a tease is DP's Amiibo on Sakurai's twitter.
Or Famitsu talking about Dark Pit "how will he appear?"
Although I think that picture of all the figurines could've been further back than Sakurai's idea to take alts and turn them into characters like he did with Lucina.
That said, if you guys feel this is too close to leak talk, we can always move the conversation over to the leaks topic.
Shadow?Dark Pit being a unique character bothers me more actually because it means Sakurai can't use the "clones are easier to make than unique characters" excuse. It's just him promoting a palette swap from his most recent game over more deserving characters. He could at least use a villain like Medusa or something.

I guess I'd be fine if he was a Roy-type clone; has some clear differences, but mostly the same.
If he was a Wolf-type clone (almost entirely different) or a Lucina-type clone (not different at all), I'd be really bothered then.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerDidn't Miyamoto once cryptically comment that he "couldn't imagine Mario being something like a doctor", hinting that Dr. Mario is in fact a different guy?
Then again, I could be severely misremembering (and Nintendo has refereed to them interchangeably in the past anyway)
Don't PM me. We don't like being PMed.
