The one year anniversary is tomorrow for Source Gaming, so we figured we would celebrate through an AMA. Source Gaming is a website dedicated to collecting and organizing various Smash information. It’s focus is on the development, history and culture of the Super Smash Brothers series, a part of the fandom that hasn’t been properly researched. If you would like to donate to Source Gaming please consider checking out our patreon. We don't run any ads on Source Gaming, and rely 100% on community funds.

Here are some examples of our posts:

Does anyone believe on the Gematsu Leaks?

If you could add a character into Sm4sh that was scrapped in Melee/Brawl, who would it be?

[u/Spoogymonkey → u/HellfireSky]

To your first question, I don't believe it (can't speak for everyone though). Actually, I wrote a lot [On Smashboard] about why I thought it was false. One benefit that Sal had is he wasn't a typical forum goer, so he had a fresh perspective. Most of us wouldn't have said Villager since Sakurai stated he didn't add Villager in Brawl because wasn't a fighter. The characters Sal missed were ones most people weren't looking at (Rosalina, Robin, Duck Hunt). But go check out PushDustin's and TheAnvil's Point, Counterpoint on it if you haven't already.

EDIT: Guess I'm the minority

For your second question, Wolf is the only appropriate response.
