yes! Where have you been? JK. Hope this helps...

1. Pacman is very iconic, so thats a good candidate so far

2. Namco is co developing this game

3. A Leaker says he's in the game. THIS Was the guy that got WiiFit Trainer correct, many find him very reliable

4. Namco items in the game ↓↓↓

that makes it about confirmed fake, but there is still a chance :0 (not that i believe it, but you never kno!)

you know, I never realised this until you pointed it out, definitely fake. That asides, simply presenting hidden characters like that on Smash Bros feels...off,  Brawl and Melee (with most of its cast anyways) showed no sign of how many unlockable characters through the character select screen

I see but still... ugh...

I see, hadn't realized pacman was namco's property, well i did know but it just didn't click, still why pac man? he doesn't make any sense, it's ugly and his games are pure shit, he's also ugly, i mean c'mon, isn't there any chance of havin ANOTHER namco character? ANY character and have this ugly ass yellow ball abomination of the original cute pacman as a thropy or something? u_u

Looks like a 50-50 to me, the design seems good but what is the point of showing the all slots

They wouldn't have the default characters so few and far between. They would be bunched together like they were in the first three installments. 

I guess you are famous over at best buy.

And Pac-Man is awesome as well as one of gaming's biggest mascots.

I'm not feeling it. I'd love it to be true, but if there were 50 characters then more would have been announced by now. I'd be more than happy with 40.

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!

Would like Mewtwo to return!
