Hello guys I'm sorry I haven't uploaded in a bit I have been sick for the last week :(

[herrsteinr]

I kinda like the name “Universe” better than “for Wii U “

[EPMTUNES]

Never forget about the Mario but sitting on a chair hoax

[stevegoblin]

"Ness' render Did get posted online but it turns out that is actually."

I would've love to have Takamaru in, and have a reboot of Mursame Castle because of his inclusion, just like Pit did.

[MarkH]

I still believe Shulk's trailer was titled "Looks like we don't have a choice!" because Nintendo was salty after the leaks

[thrrr]

2:57 hey isn’t that Link’s old DashAttack from Brawl?

[zachariahdearing]

This is all pretty new information to me, having only started to follow the prerelease leaks and reveals during Ultimate's cycle. That one leaker seems to have been scarily accurate though.

Smash 4 was wild, lots of rumors about the newest characters!When they release a character, it gets hype!

[gianlucacolangelo]

They should have left the name "universe" better than "for Wii u"

[Flamingpaper]

I'm pretty sure the Gematsu leaker just got early information, since Chorus Kids and Chrom were at one point considered and Greninja was based on early concept art from Gamefreak

[LuciusTY]

I thought your name was Aaronimator, like a Dr. Doofensmerch invention...

[gsvproductions]

One of my favorite Smash 4 "Leaks" was the Professor Layton Leak.
Someone had edited the Smash 4 IMBD Page to include a credit for Christopher Robin Miller as Professor Layton.

When asked about this in an interview, he responded saying something like "I geuss I'm in that, then." and a lot of people took as confirmation that Professor Layton was to be one of the, at the time, upcoming DLC characters.

Everyone: lmao that fake

*did actually happened*

Everyone: *pikachu surprise*

[drewwy_draws]

They missed the change to call Sm4sh Universe (U) and Dimensions (3D)

[Chokun-Gaming]

1:56 "untitled smash game" *honk*

[seanbroderick]

You are one of my favorite Youtubers ever.

[pickedceasar]

The one "hoax" that you spent a majority of the video covering sounds like the guy had very early information since Greninja was literally just "X and Y Pokemon" till they had a name and design for him

You really dropped the ball on that one

[otaking]

*Sakurai:* "You want Rayman and Shovel Knight in Smash as playable characters? Okay, I'll add them in as trophies because screw you"

[mds_]

I think Gematsu was real but outdated, there's no way he would have guessed the WFT and the Mii Fighters' name otherwise, not to mention that characters like PacMan or Shulk were not a given back in the days.
There's also solid proof of Chrom and a Rhythm Heaven character being planned but scrapped later on (interviews, game data, the Smash Run enemies, etc), and Sakurai confirmed that they referred to Greninja as the "pokemon from X and Y" early on.

So it'd be really cool if you dedicate an entire video on it like you will with the Rayman one.
Also, a video about the mewtwoking leak from Brawl (which turned out to be true) would be cool too, since it was a big deal back in the days.
