You're not exactly refuting anything with the first sentence. That and Spainkiller never specified what "version" they were in. He just said "they were in the game".

Like, I don't really believe him and I don't buy that his words is gospel. But the fact that the game still has unaccounted for space and a bunch of DLC hints in the cart is really hard to ignore.

How does DLC hints suggest he has any credibility? Tons of people predicted DLC. That doesn't mean it'll be the characters he suggests, or that he has insider information. It's literally one of the easiest claims he could have made. And the I'm aware of the "unaccounted space", but that could easily just be for future patches, or just a mistake. The fact is that we know exactly how much space is on the cart, and in that space the stuff he claims is missing. And given that he claimed his source came up with the unlock theory and not himself, I can't really accept that the source wouldn't know that it was dlc (especially since according to him his source was part of european localization)

I never suggested it gives him credibility. I suggested it's clear evidence of DLC. Which it honestly is.

Calm down.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Dude, calm down. Nobody here is absolutely latching on to it. Its just part of a fake hype thing for fun. Spainkiller stated that his source saw them in game. He never specified if it was the 3ds version. He's had his account since 2004 so I doubt he'd just give it up like that. Also, he apparently works for Power Unlimited. Googled his name and found his linkedin account.

Fair enough. Although even still that doesn't give him credibility, especially since the reason he stated for the leak to be real was actually from a seperate leak that had been available for ages

To clarifying something, Spainkiller answered someone's question in private message that his source saw those moving models in 3DS version.

Also I'm not sure if it's good idea to link someone's linkedin account here.

 

[Kandinsky]

I'm hoping for an opening movie.

Sounds extremely silly, I know, but man the opening for both Melee and Brawl are fun. Gets me in the mood for some Smashing.

Yeah, if 4 doesnt get a proper intro I'm going to burn my disc!

When did I ever deny DLC though? I really don't get the point of bringing that up in the context of the conversation if you don't think it provides spainkiller with credibility

Fair point. Also, edited out the link.

Agreed. Poor form to bring someone's outside life into GAF.

EDIT: Thanks for the edit, Inaba. Hope I didn't sound too harsh!

nah, its good.

 

[Hello.]

That would be exceedingly silly if he was banned over that. For all we know he may be legitimately passing along something he legitimately heard. Whether it pans out or not -- who cares. We'll know the full contents of the game in mere weeks.

Why would anyone get banned over that? This forum talks about speculative and rumored information all the time and posts threads spreading it without sources.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Alright, let moving the discussions about Spainkiller, DLC, etc to it's proper thread, and let people hyping in peace.

 

[NotLiquid]

My first quote towards you wasn't even disagreeing with you. It was pointing out that there's evidence that DLC/additional content can happen but that there really is no saying when it might happen. The only thing I disagreed about was about content availability when linking both versions, as it's possible to restrict price/discounts per what games you own, or in this case, have linked between versions.

 

[Neiteio]

I don't know why anyone would get banned over something so incredibly harmless. But apparently some people here think that Emcee saying "okay" is a threat rather than just him saying "OK, well, that's a lot of something."

 

[FreedomFighter]

What are the chances of Bayonetta in Smash as a late entry?

Would be cool if both Bayonetta and Shantae were in it.

Bayo is coming. BELIEVE.

GAF is often cited as a source for information. If that information turns out to be false, GAF loses credibility as a source of information.

So if you claim you have reliable information about something, you better be right.

 

[Growlie19]

On the one day I don't have school?! HYPE!!

 

[Fandangox]

Thing 50.5: Wonder Red DLC

I will never need another Smash game if this happens.

 

[J@hranimo]

Actually one thing I'm looking forward to the most now that I think about it are better looks at stages we've seen a bit of like the Kalos Pokemon League, Oribtal Gate, GAMER, that Wuhu Island type stage in the PotD today and....oh why not, good 'ol Temple in dat HD!

The guy was passing along something he claims he heard. That's harmless because it goes without saying it's unproven and should be taken with a grain of salt. It's different from, say, representing something in an OT's OP as though it were bullet-point PR from the company itself.

I better move up my tee time to be safe.

Man, I thought I was the only one hoping for a intro movie, I am also hoping for some small CGI videos of nintendo characters just fucking around.

I'm most excited to see the Great Cave Offensive. Really interested to find out how that stage works. If nothing else, it should have a great sense of place.

 

[Sadist]

It ain't silly, brah. It feels kinda sedated, starting up the game without an opening in the 3DS version, doesn't it? With an opening, I hope we get a new composition of the main theme or a brand new one as well.

Same here.

Yeah, if 4 doesnt get a proper intro I'm going to burn my disc!

You are good people.

I need the announcement trailers of the game on the disc as well.

Smash direct will end with a Chorus Kids trailer, just watch!

so you can laugh at it when I'm wrong.

Oh yeah! That stage is gonna be crazy. Especially with the hole you fall through like in the PotD.

Ugh Thursday where you at?!?!

 

[Hot Coldman]

I wonder if there's any chance the Wii version has more alt costumes. Mario not having any is pretty strange.

 

[Seik]

You're not silly, I want one too. Wait...maybe we're both silly?! :|

Something awesome would be to get all the characters announcement videos. CG Nintendo is Pixar worthy stuff. I'd like to be able to watch those in 1080p whenever I want.

 

[Mistle]

I'm sure the Wii U version will have a proper intro and the whole deal. There's so much CG work done already.

The 3DS doesn't have one because it's meant to be pick up and play. Snappy, quick. You aren't going to want a big intro when you're out and about (or at least that's their mentality).

 

[PRjumpman124]

I just want the announcer to scream out the name of the game.

 

[zroid]

He does, they just gave it its own character slot ( ͝° ͜ʖ͡°)

I think this is better

He said he did a recording for that, so it will probably be in the Wii U version.

WHAT?

Source, now!

 

[Kouriozan]

It don't feel like Smash Bros. without the yelling.

 

[Letterbomb]

The Smash Bros. 3DS menus are ugly to me. Especially that "challenges" button. Really scrunched the text there...

The Wii U menus are gorgeous though. Night and day IMO.

 

[BGBW]

If I remember to log onto the voicechat room I'll make sure to provide all the shouting you need during a match.

It's in the comments of one of his videos. He was asked about it and said:

I don't know for suuuuure if it'll be in the Wii-U version, but I did record a bunch of takes for that

Haha this is amazing

 

["D"]

I agree. I haven't liked the menus since Brawl. They seem too loud and over-exaggeratingly kiddy to me especially with the huge font and simple designs/color scheme (despite it being a game with friendly Nintendo mascots, yes I know but that's just how I feel)

I enjoyed the menus from the 64/Melee versions, with Melee being my absolute fave. Serious looking as you would expect from a "fighting game" but still nice on the eyes.

Hmm, tempting

 

[Crayolan]

WHAT?

Source, now!

On his youtube channel in a comment to someone asking about it:

I don't know for suuuuure if it'll be in the Wii-U version, but I did record a bunch of takes for that, so if it is not included with the Wii-U release then I will do that for sure!

Nah, I agree. I feel like the Wii U version is gonna get one simply out of tradition. They probably either didn't have enough space for a huge CGI movie on the 3DS version or simply wanted to keep the games pace quick from the moment you start the game, like many other 3DS games.

They definitely didn't make those huge CGI trailers for nothing.

 

[BakedYams]

SOMEONE HOLD ME PLEASE! I CAN'T CONTROL MYSELF!!!

I wouldn't worry about it personally. Pretty confident there will be an opening video.

OMG!! this made my smash-direct-announcement-day I missed too much that particular bit, because screaming the title at the start has become a kind of stample in the series

On his youtube channel in a comment to someone asking about it:

What's his youtube channel?

Edit: I'm dumb.

 

[GamerSoul]

I hope they bring the hype back because they're basically trying to get a a fair amount of people to buy another version of the game. Soooo your move, Nintendo.

 

[Neoxon]

My body is ready.
