Who's NOT in the game? De-confirmation thread

Wayne from Lost Planet was also deconfirmed (I almost forgot about that one, lol).

4:43 here, [media=youtube]43RaVCP3RL4[/media]

Can’t believe I’m missing de-confirms in my own links! Cheers.

I request captain commando, mack the knife, mack is one of my all-time favorite character.

post that in the suggestion thread…:wonder:

Er, where did Gill get deconfirmed? All I’ve seen mentioned of him officially is Niitsuma saying he liked the character in a tweet.

Yeah, I’m kinda confused myself.

Niitsuma deconfirms more franchises, characters for MvC3 : News : EventHubs.com

Eventhubs interpreted that tweet as saying “No Gill”. I suppose I haven’t tried to translate it myself, but that’s why people would think that.

EDIT: Guess I’ll try and translate it here:

Original: ???
Romaji: Gill ii desu yo ne!

From: http://nihongo.j-talk.com/kanji/

ii: (1) good; excellent; fine; nice; pleasant; agreeable (2) sufficient (can be used to turn down an offer); ready; prepared (3) profitable (e.g. deal, business offer, etc.); beneficial (4) OK

Desu yo ne is just like, “is”, kind of. “Gill is ‘ii’, you know?”.

Depending on how you translate the “ii”, he could be saying he thinks Gill is a great character, or he could be saying something more along the lines of “he’s cool but no”, or “that’s all right.” Kind of like “thanks, he’s great, but no thanks.”

Since it’s got an exclamation point, and he seems to always be in a happy, joking mood, I’m thinking it’s more along the lines of “thanks but no thanks.”

My Japanese sucks, though.

Thanks for the help pal. I understand a wee bit better now. :tup:

So no news on the Black Panther link Disconfirm? good because black people need to be in something

Storm: she’s black and african, married with Black Phanter, living in Wakanda where she’s first lady. Blacker than this I don’t know (lol, Black Heart?)

Hold on, here’s the full sentence he replied with in the twitter-
???
Translating it thru Google Translate (yes I know it’s not the best, but it translated the first part similar to what you’ve posted), it comes out as something along the lines of “Gill is an interesting character, and I personally like him”.
So he seems to be giving his personal thoughts on Gill rather than confirming or deconfirming him

black panther was a stream decomf. imo nycc… When the translator guy and jgonzo were on the mic.

I still need verifiable links for Gambit, Black Panther, Silver Surfer and Megaman X, so if anyone know out there knows where these guys got the verbal axe (I believe Gambit was the NYCC stream right?) give me a holler and I’ll search for the video/article.

Ah, not sure how I missed that part. Thought I grabbed it straight from the Twitter.

Anyhow, that leads me to believe it translates more to something like “Unfortunately no Gill, but I do like the character.”

Need to get someone who speaks Japanese in here.

I was the ‘source’ for no Gambit and SS, and yeah heard it during one of the NY stream interviews. Pretty sure it was Saturday, but not 100% sure.

For SS he was compared to Ghost Rider and N said they gave up on him because they couldn’t implement the board in a way that worked, I don’t remember for sure the context for Gambit unfortunately :frowning:

I suppose I could just replace ‘verification needed’ with ‘Trust Wind cuz he’s kewl’. :lol:
Unless there’s a recording of the stream kicking around like there was for Day 1 and the other Unity stream?

I will not be hurt if you pull them tho’, ‘only with proof’ is always a good standard :stuck_out_tongue:

For what it’s worth, you are a reliable source in my book.

I’m currently considering whether to remove Gambit and Silver Surfer as ‘Unequivocal disconfirms’ until links appear as it’s just not helpful for those not already in the know. I was gonna add Black Panther because people were mentioning stream de-confirms, but then someone started saying that it was a confirm! I hate stream de-confirms! They make editing this thread annoying!

Obviously I trust Wind, it’s just a case of keeping this thread tidy and useful. I think I’m only gonna put de-confirms up once I have links to source them with, even if I personally witness a stream disconfirm I’ll wait for a video or article to surface.

God knows I’m awesome :smiley:
