We all had visions of Shulk revealed. Then suddenly:
"The future's... changing!"
Anyway, cleans:
just imagine if shulk somehow wasn't revealed
The gematsu leaker stuck his head out and everything
How dumb is everyone going to look if it's not Shulk
(It's totally Shulk)
Sooo dumb.
Maybe Lucina is a Chrom clone, and the leaker source thought Robin was Shulk. Which means we're getting no Shulk LOL.
People are a little too eager in discounting Shulk...
Basically, that last one. I wouldn't write Shulk out just yet; he has a few things going in his favor, even without being revealed
today.
That's it. Roster complete.
Nah, there's still room for improvement.
I TOOK THE 3 TOP NON-SHULK RELATED TITLES INTO A NEW POLL!!! VOTE NOW!!!
FUCK, I DIDN'T REALIZE "Against the Odds, We Choose to Hype!" WAS A XENOBLADE REFERENCE!!!
Hee hee
*starts writing erotic fanfiction*
Keep this shit out of here.
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U | Falchion Punch!
Man, this is too perfect a pun.
I'm not sure the Gematsu leak is incorrect. But the idea that the person who has been feeding him information may be using outdated info is certainly a possibility at this point.
Gematsu never said Chrom/Shulk/Chorus Men were the last 3 newcomers, he just said they would be in the game and playable. Chrom is clearly NOT playable
I still think that the rest of Gematsu's leak will come true (Shulk/Chorus Men). Him being wrong about one character doesn't automatically mean that he's a fraud and that none of the info was ever legit. The leak is partially real, I think it's foolish to say otherwise at this point, it's just that his info is not as 100% as we've been taking it.
I still say Shulk and Chorus Men are in.
Basically my stance.
So who else assumes Sakurai told the Xenoblade guy to retweet?
Actually? Yeah, I think so.
He caught wind of the leak, and how people were getting totally unsurprised by his reveals... so he basically made it very explicit how he was going to reveal Shulk today, telling Bandai Namco as much, and even getting a Monolithsoft employee to retweet the announcement. This made the leaker extremely confident in saying "it's gonna be Shulk
" to Sal. However, Sakurai kept the truth close to his chest - that he was revealing Lucina/Robin today - and all of this was A) an attempt to surprise us once more (he succeeded, that's for sure), and B) an attempt to smoke out who the leaker is so their ass can be shown the door.
(This probably isn't the truth, but it makes for interesting reading.)
So what's the title for OT 10 now that the Monado express is late?
Looks like a less-direct
Xenoblade reference is winning:
"Against the Odds, We Choose to Hype!" (It still works in the context of today, so sure, why not?)
