Talk:List of leaks/Archive 1

Should I edit the page with a list of the leaks such as that website that leaked the Subspace emissary bosses and characters? User:KoRoBeNiKi

I think so. Maybe make a list out of it. User:Malefix

uh

Why do we need this? It could easily fit on Lucario's or Brawl's page. BNK ^[E|T|C] 22:22, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Currently, yes, but if/when the next Smash Bros. game shows up there may be leaks about it, so I'd say having its own page is a reasonable idea. Toomai Glittershine 22:24, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

What's wrong?

I tried to make a link that direct here. But, it's still on the orphaned page list. Is there something wrong? Kirbythe Amazing 14:09, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

What are you talking about? MegaTron1XD 14:19, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

The maintenance pages don't update immediately. After some time passes, it should update and leak should be off the orphaned pages list. Omega Tyrant 14:47, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

So uh where are the examples?

The only "example" on the page is just another rumour, not a leak (the concept of a leak means it must be true). Where are the actual examples? Toomai Glittershine The Orchestral 17:29, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

Agreed. I don't think "some guy in 2007 said Sora and Geno would be in Brawl" is particularly noteworthy. Also, the only "leaks" I ever remember seeing (that ended up being true) was a list of the playable characters a few weeks before the game was released in Japan. Maybe that should be added to this article? -BrothersNotBros (talk) 18:02, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

Yeah it should, we just need to find it. Toomai Glittershine Da Bomb 18:52, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

There's also the video showing off the stickers that leaked Lucario, Jigglypuff, and Ness as being playable characters. Omega Tyrant 18:57, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

Shouldn't this be added?

I know I'm new here, but has anyone here caught wind of this imgur album filled with screenshots from the ESRB reel? http://imgur.com/a/PzeCw --Trogdorbad (talk) 15:12, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

As per SW:NEWGAME, images of this nature require community consensus. At the moment, I'm neutral on the subject of these images. Miles (talk) 15:23, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

My vote is that they're legit. They're the exact kind of thing the ESRB would want to rate a game on (the most objectionable content), and the sheer volume of them makes it extremely implausible for all of them to be fake. Toomai Glittershine The Steppin' 15:26, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

We're getting close enough to release that legitimate leaks are likely to start appearing, plus the amount of evidence here is comprehensive enough to call this the real deal. Whether or not that means we should document it officially is a different story. I've been of the opinion on Bulbapedia that Hoopa and Volcanion deserve acknowledgement despite the lack of official reveal; similarly, I believe that we should at least document what is clear in these leaks, but hold off on any debatable info until official media can clarify it. VinLAURiA (talk) 16:05, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

I'm of the opinion that it should all be considered official. But, it's probably more official to use the things that are clear: Junior, Ganon, and Shulk. ...a new Nuttais approaching... 16:09, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

Just as an update: the videos that correspond with this data have been removed by a copyright claim by Nintendo themselves, and there's word going around that the leaker has been fired and being sued. I say there's no reasonable doubt left that this is legit at this point. VinLAURiA (talk) 20:44, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

It's still a rumor, although violating a NDA is a big deal. Wouldn't be surprised. That said, I agree that the videos' removal is strong additional evidence in favor of their legitimacy, as Nintendo wouldn't have any interest in removing a fake. Miles (talk) 20:50, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

And judging by the addition of the new pages, I'd say we've reached a consensus that this is legit? VinLAURiA (talk) 20:52, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

We've only decided the videos are legitimate. The screenshots are a related but separate issue and should not be used as evidence at this time. Miles (talk) 21:16, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

Fair enough. Lock and load. VinLAURiA (talk) 21:18, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

All-Star Mode

One of the leaked screenshots from two weeks ago had the menu for All-Star Mode shown in today's Pic of the Day, and it looks exactly like it. Should this be noted on the page, or should it be left out? Nintendocan (talk) 17:42, 2 September 2014 (EDT)
