Smash Bros 44-character list leaked?

Claimed screenshot of the character select screen reveals a fair few surprises
A supposedly leaked screenshot of the Super Smash Bros. Brawl character select screen reveals that the full has got an massive 44 playable fighters.

So far only 25 of those have been confirmed on the game's official site, but if this screenshot turns out to be genuine, Nintendo has been keeping a fair bit secret, even when we thought it'd all been revealed.

The screen (pictured below) shows characters like Baby Bowser, King K. Rool (DK Country), Krystal (Star Fox Adventure), Ganondorf and more as fully playable characters.

Take a look for yourself and get all excited. March 9 is the US date. Europe can't be that far behind (it had better not be).

I think I just made a mess. Midna's in there? I didn't know that, that's an awesome Zelda additional. Also is that the Black Bull bloke from F-Zero?

Sweetness.

I reckon it's fake....
The images of the characters look a bit random and just thrown together from various box art and the like... especially how some are illustrations, some are renders and some are game graphics.

I prays to teh GODS!
I hope this is real. I think that cartoon zelda's litlle pic would probably be an illustration anyway due to his.. well... cartooness. This kind of image wouldn't be too hard for photoshop ninjas to make though.... i guess i'll have to just wait! Crying or Very sad

But just as a precaution of this character list actually being a reality, I just made some love mayo in my undercrackers. don't tell anyone. I don't need that kind of press.

The fact that this is the Jap version and he's called Koopa does lend it some authenticity, I thought he still had that name over there.

Fake.

I'd love to believe that's real....

I'd prefer Ridley to Dark Samus though.

The image was confirmed as a fake yesterday.

Yeah, it's a blatant fake!

Who's that between Olimar and Lucas? It looks like it says something "...man".

I still wish both Mega Man and Bomberman would be included. Still, there's hope for download via VC...though Nintendo, you'd be better releasing some patch or hard drive for all this type of stuff!

Samus on 23 Jan '08
I remember the time it took me to finally choose and then perfect my best character on the original Smash Bros... But it looks like I'll be MIA until christmas with that many characters!!!

Fake.

They'd make there only Charcter Models and Pics for the Select Screen, and any uncofirmed Charcters have previously seen Pics.

As I said, Fake.

Good thing it is fake. There needs to be more MGS and Fire Emblem characters.
ianfosse on 23 Jan '08
We'll know soon enough. It's out in Japan in like, a week.
