In addition, leakers claimed that five new characters could be unlocked when the 3DS and Wii U versions were connected. The five implicated characters were [[Ridley]], the Chorus Men, [[Dixie Kong]], [[Mewtwo]], and {{s|zeldawiki|Impa}} from ''The Legend of Zelda''. Notably, the first four characters were previously implicated by leakers in the ESRB leak, though the list was intentionally fabricated by the ESRB leaker in order to identify copycat leaks. As a final note to readers, the leaker also claimed that stages and characters would not be unlockable in the game, with all of them being available from the start. However, there were some notable oddities in these leaks, such as the fact that Ridley has no wings on the ground but can sprout them in the air, something that never happens in the Metroid series, and it also said that Mewtwo would make "generic grunts". | In addition, leakers claimed that five new characters could be unlocked when the 3DS and Wii U versions were connected.

The screenshot showed the roster with characters such as {{SSB4|Mr. Game & Watch}} completely absent, still needing to be unlocked by the player; also worth noting, however, was that Masahiro Sakurai [http://www.gamnesia.com/news/sakurai-considered-having-all-fighters-available-from-the-start-in-smash-br had originally planned] for all the characters in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' to be available from the start. The [[Nintendo Direct]] presentation on 23 October 2014 further refuted the rumor; while an improved Stage Builder was confirmed in the presentation, the Tower of Smash and Boss Rush modes went without mention, no information was given on [[Magicant]] or [[Mute City]] being shared stages, and all other implicated characters were absent. Furthermore, Ridley was confirmed to be a stage boss on [[Pyrosphere]], and the Event Matches were confirmed to be returning for the game. While {{SSB4|Mewtwo}} was revealed as a playable character, it was revealed to be a downloadable character, not an on-disc transferable character. Additionally, only 32 new stages and 21 past stages appear in the Wii U version, six of which need to be unlocked and nine of which are obtained via DLC. | ||
