Towards the end of 2007, the [http://www.whobby.com/ Whobby Game Festival] occurred in Japan; among its primary points of interests was that a playable demo of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' would be available for play by attendants. Due to the event taking place only in Japan, a region with relatively little representation in most English-speaking websites, such as [[Smashboards]], updates on the game were sparse and difficult to confirm. The most well-known claim, however, stated that [[Assist Trophies]] of [[Rosalina]] from ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}'', [[Duster]] from ''{{s|wikibound|Mother 3}}'', and [[wikipedia:Mole Mania|Muddy Mole]] from ''Mole Mania'' would be featured in the game.

Amid an increase in English-speakers that played demos at events, as well as the release of the game, the rumor was proven false, and further hacking of the game proved that no such evidence of the trio were even planned to be included. It is unknown if the trophies were mistaken for other gameplay elements (such as [[Gardevoir]] being confused for Rosalina) or if these claims were deliberately hoaxed to fool players.
