i know they're fake but all these pretend banjo leaks are making me feel way more hopeful than i should
The thing that bothers me most from that big "leak" from last couple pages is the broken English.
It isn't hard to pretend you're bad at a language because it's not your primary, but there are nuances to it that will make it more or less believable. Randomly adding/removing conjunctions, over-using possessives, or randomizing past/present tense isn't enough, doing that looks fake as shit. Think about the sentence structure of the language you supposedly speak as your primary, and try to build an English sentence using that structure, or at the very least, pretend you don't know English at all and build a sentence that makes sense in this other language, then run it through Google Translate or something.
imagine if the roster was only ever decided by the quality of fake leaks proving the popularity of certain characters
If Banjo was in the game and that is real, then why isn't he the current Microsoft design? The gross boxy one? That's the only way we seen him used by Microsoft, outside of the XBLA ports of BK and BT.
He had the boxy design in the menus of Rare Replay (2016) aaaand I think that's the last time MS used him (or Conker for that matter)
Pac-Man and Simon technically aren't their current designs either. Also Microsoft did release a Banjo statue with his old design on his anniversary. I still think the leak is bullshit though
Not iconic enough, same reason why they went with Simon's Barbarian look and Richter's anime look instead of this:

Remind me again why people thought these were legit?

I actually heard the Roblox OOF when I saw this pic
Although Ken and Isabelle were obviously . . . . . lacking . . . . . their attempts at Agnès, Isaac and Shadow as 3D painted from 2D and it clearly was decently enough executed to fool people.
Kudos to them for trying a bold way to test their might and getting the internet in a tizzy.
"Issac stabs!
... his back?"
I'm not mad it isn't real.
I'm mad that WE WOULD HAVE CHORUS KIDS IF IT WERE.

someone just mentioned this potential teaser in another group, dunno if its old but if you recall this is also how they teased pac-man in greninja's trailer for smash 4
I want Rayman in so we can Lum Remixes in and songs like this

No it isn't. Pac-Man was playable in Smash 4 and there just so happened to be a vaguely Pac-shaped cloud in Greninja's trailer. These two facts weren't related.
Remember when they teased Ridley as a playable character in Brawl by hiding him in the clouds alongside Bowser and Ganondorf?

wasn't someone just joking about seeing characters in clouds on another page lol.
i said it before and I'll say it again, Sakurai just needs a framed ink-blot in the background of the next direct because good lord people will go absolutely ham with it. that cloud looks like nothing.
i dont think they teased ridley as playable, those are a handful of the villains of subspace. thematically they make sense to constitute the ominous clouds.

Closest thing I can get to a character from that cloud is Dry Bones? Not Getting Rayman from that at all.
i'm seeing this face in the cloud

but i'm not going to read into it. it's like postal said, it's basically an inkblot
they would never add wart, he'd have a terrible matchup against peach, daisy, and olimar

big if true
Yes but if you multiple the number of scales on K-Rool's left knee by the number of bandages on the mummies in Simon's trailer you'll discover a number combination that means that Geno is in.
