Talk:Rumors and leaks

New Super Mario Sunshine Rumor

Recently, a new SMS DLC rumor has emerged, but I wasn't sure if I should add it or not. Opinions?

I believe these were confirmed to be fake. Either way, I wouldn't post any leaks on the wiki until they are confirmed. ~SuperHamster Talk 21:13, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Now that I look at it, my link might be debunking something else - but I still wouldn't recommend posting something so unconfirmed and potentially fake. ~SuperHamster Talk 21:14, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Permission was given in the Skype chat, so I went ahead and added the images. If you would like me to revert the page, let me know :) Thesquidsisters (talk) 22:52, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Looking at the page, it looks all right - nice job :) My only worry is having the page turn into a giant list of too many fake leaks. Ideally, leaks that are reputable and covered by trustworthy Nintendo news sites are what I think we should cover. But until that becomes a problem (if it does), I won't argue it. ~SuperHamster Talk 23:53, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

We could employ another rule: only leaks that generate massive discussion are allowed. If somebody on the depths of 4chan posts a blurry 64x64 image, and all the replies it gets are 4 people calling them an idiot, I hardly think we should try to cover that. – Espyo^T 08:01, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

Possible Sunshine Leak

NWPlayer123 posted a picture of this a while ago. https://twitter.com/NWPlayer123/status/652299052025942021 Luma Party (talk) 18:29, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

August Update/DLC datamine

We know that the gatling gun and the paint bucket was confirmed from the Japanese testfire commercial. Some person (I don't think it was NWPlayer123) had already datamined Splatoon again. It revealed more information about those upcoming weapons (Sheldon's weapon description, sub weapons and weapon specials). All can be found here: http://pastie.org/pastes/10310878/text. Discuss.

So the Ink Bucket is actually the Bloblobber that was revealed in the previous datamine. I don't think we should use this new information on pages, because it's still a datamine and against our policy. - ShrimpPin 14:03, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Brace yourselves, NWPlayer123 is at it again. The update has apparently been datamined already. I listened to some of the ripped music some minutes ago. AmbientDinosaur (talk) 23:57, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Slosher Machine

NWPlayer123 Once again leaks a new weapon called the "Slosher Machine". https://twitter.com/NWPlayer123/status/656646169179779074 https://twitter.com/NWPlayer123/status/656645221980114944 — Preceding unsigned comment added by WoomyLuma (talk • contribs) 03:01, 22 October 2015 (UTC)‎

Shouldn't this be updated?

What needs doing and can you not edit the page? User:Kjhf/Sig 21:36, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Well, there are two "ongoing" rumors that I'm pretty sure were resolved. And yes, I can, but I don't have the proper information. Now dat's a nutty kid. 02:19, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

Squid Sisters amiibo rumour

Now, we have a latest rumour regarding to the unconfirmed/unannounced Squid Sisters amiibo shown in the game's files. Could someone please add this rumour to the article? Also the ongoing ones were already confirmed months ago. -InfiniteMusume (talk) 09:31, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Kay, I got it. Thanks for the source! --Bzeep! talk 23:55, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Splatoon 2 boss rumor confirmed

I can confirm that Callie does indeed show up as part of the "Octobot King II" battle, having been brainwashed by DJ Octavio's "Hypno-Shades". Link to confirmation is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-1b541wFSg

It also reveals the existence of the fourth boss, the Octo Shower, and the Hero Brella. Splatzoner (talk) 22:39, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Following up on this, I've found a second video verifying the above and confirming the Octostomp to be returning as the third boss. As it is from an established YouTube user known for reliable information in the past, it should be safe to begin adding information to the main pages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaFZ61sEwTQ Splatzoner (talk) 00:52, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

New Weapons and Gear Confirmed?

During the Splatoon 2 section of yesterday's Nintendo Direct, it looks like some of the leaked weapons were shown. In the part when they show the player ranking up to Rank X it looks like they are holding Custom Dualie Squelchers. And when they are showing player on the various new stages, some inklings appear to be holding other new weapons like the H-3 Nozzlenose D, a Brella type weapon, some form of Tetra Dualies possibly the Light Tetra Dualies, and possibly the Clash Blaster Neo. Also, when they were showing off some of the new gear you could see certain pieces like the Squid Nordic, Squid-Stitch Cap, and the Gas Mask. So, does this confirm these things? And should we update the page or wait? 14:27, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
