Trials of Coldsteel III (Sora for Smash)

"Trials of Coldsteel III (Sora for Smash)" is a leak LaxChris covered on January 23, 2019. This leak has been proven fake by the poster's own admission and the fact that a Nintendo Direct has not occurred, except for Trials of Coldsteel III was real.

Content of Leak
What I've said:

Jan-16th

Coldsteel III will be announced for English localization on the 17th of January

Also Sora will be announced for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as the second fighter pass character.

Post CSIII announcement:

I did this to prove a point that just because someone claims to have inside info guess one thing right doesn't mean everything else they say is real. I did know about that game's announcement early and threw the Sora part onto it and people believed it.

Also should note:

Based on my industry connections with Nintendo and other companies, we sometimes do know of Nintendo Directs ahead of time if our game is featured in it... however, we do not get to see the Direct early, nor even our part in it. So if any leak claims to have seen the Direct, it's most likely fake. I have in the past known about a Nintendo Direct 2 weeks earlier than the public due to these connections back during the Smash 4 days, but I did not know the contents of the Direct. So it is possible for a date of a Nintendo Direct to leak but no the contents of it.

Also new update: can't tell if my brother who works at this company is messing with me or not but I told him "I feel like we are going to get a Direct this week" and he replied "yes". Typically, he says no when I take guesses about a Direct. Not only that but I pressed on and asked "do you know something?" and he ignored. Could be something this week.

LaxChris' Thoughts
He pointed out that while this leak does have stuff predicted real, the Sora stuff was fake. LaxChris says the Nintendo Direct leak might have had credibility though because of her real connections. He called this leak real.
