Roy and Ryu leaked as characters for next Super Smash Bros. update.

Apparently confirming rumors from April, video from the latest Super Smash Bros.update on Wii U depicts Roy from Fire Emblem (above) and Ryu of Street Fighter (below) as new fighters available for the series.

Two YouTubers — TripleXero and MemeScreen — posted these videos early this morning, saying they were mined out of the Smash update which briefly released ahead of time.

Miners said that the update also includes audio files of Xander calling our Ryu, Roy and Lucas, crowd chants for Ryu and Roy, and Kirby shouting "Hadouken!" They also found images of Ryu's Street Fighter 2 stage for the game and the official render of Ryu.

In April, data miners found sound files from the 3DS version of the game, which seemed to point to Ryu and Roy as characters on the way.

It's likely Nintendo is waiting until E3 to officially announce the new roster additions. We've reached out to a representative anyway. Any comment will be updated here.

Update: Nintendo said that the two will be in Super Smash Bros. U and the 3DS version. What do you guys think about this? I actually didn't mind the fact that Roy was removed TBH....
