I think that there will be a Canadian delay, but not an American delay..just like Rock Band.

Here is a list of sites and release dates:

Walmart.ca does not list Brawl.

Gamestop.com / EBgames.com 2/10/08 - http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=230015

EBGames stores in Canada have a March date for Brawl on their in store computers.

GameFly US: 3/10/08

My gut feeling is that the US will see a delay, but I would love to see it out in Feb.

 

[Cowie]

I always thought anyone caught giving false 'prophecies' should be permabanned. why do we need a discussion thread about bored teenagers making shit up?

 

[Haly]

I have a feeling that Leon is going to be Capcom's character and there will be a Resident Evil stage that will take place in the first Resident Evil mansion. That is sort of cool I suppose.

It'd be nice but, Snake already has the whole grenade, rocket launcher, non-firearm ordnance thing. What's Leon going to do, bust out his martial arts skills?

 

[Jetku]

Gamefly and Gamecrazy seem to be the only US retailers reporting a march date. I dont know why the same retailer (best buy and tru) would report different dates for US and Canada unless it was true.

 

[JCX]

The first set of rumors would make me unhappy that marth is gone, no pokefloats 2, and no saffron city.

 

[Greatness Gone]

I'd rather have Soma than Simon. But, if Simon is in this game, Soma would undoubtedly be an assist trophy.

 

[jarrod]

I still want Chun Li... but I'd settle for Strider. PLEASE no RE fools Capcom!

Super secret 4th 3rd party character is totally Slime!

 

[cvxfreak]

That would be awesome, and the Spencer Mansion would make for a great stage.

 

[layzie1989]

I heard those hunters from Half Life 2 are in the Subspace Emissary

 

[A Link to the Past]

Decided to say what's definite bullshit.

rapscouter

Rapscouter is possibly the most famous one of the bunch, he was the one who leaked a number of things about Pokémon Diamond and Pearl before it was released. He returns with a number of predictions, however, GameFAQs seems to keep deleting his posts, but I have Notepad files of all his predictions, and I will post them here, instead of posting a link.

For each set, he has stated that three things within are lies.

-There's really a forth third party character that's gonna blow minds, don't who it is because my friend wouldn't even tell me.

I mean, really, four third party characters? As if.

-There will be DLC new levels and possibly items, ATs, and characters.

I could see for levels, but new ATs and characters?

-Roy, and Marth are being taken out and being replaced by characters from Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. (disagrees with jhonnyturbotic & Vatro Xu))

I would be very surprised if they took out Marth, especially to have three FE characters from the same game.

-Leafeon, Vaporeon, and Jolteon will be pokeball pokemon.

If he means just them, then no. That'd be a completely random choice to pick only two from the first gen and one from new gen.

-The third 3rd party character is from Capcom.

After Inafune said MM was not in, I doubt they'd go for a different Capcom character.

-After you get all the cds, you can supposedly upload your own music via memory stick.

I shouldn't even have to explain.

-Monty Mole, and Professor E. Gadd are assist trophies.

Monty Mole AND Muddy Mole ATs?

This can only be true if he mistook Muddy Mole for Monty Mole.

Lack of Muddy Mole on list of ATs

Yeah

/QUOTE]



Im pretty sure the qoute on third party characters was 2 to 3 more in addition to Snake. So its possible

 

[The M.O.B]

I heard those hunters from Half Life 2 are in the Subspace Emissary

Gordon Freeman Confirmed?

maybe my friend can get in it also.

 

[cvxfreak]

Isn't Marth in the DS Fire Emblem?

 

[Sweedishrodeo]

Gordon Freeman Confirmed?

Gordon Freeman with Portal gun ... drool

 

[turk128]

Companion Cube item would be badass.

 

[super funk]

I would rather just wait for the game than try to read and analyze all of those rumors.

 

[PkunkFury]

I thought GAF was better than this

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I thought GAF was better than this

You thought wrong.

 

[Synless]

I thought GAF was better than this

They are, SSBB has powers to do this to people.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

I think that there will be a Canadian delay, but not an American delay..just like Rock Band.

Why would there be a delay? There was a delay on RB for a reason.
Don't trust those placement holder dates esp. on Bestbuycanada's site.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Reminds me of the good old days...

 

[JohnTinker]

Everyone getting to hyped up over fake lists are going to raise hopes for things that aren't in the game, and will only lead to mass whining and griping when the real list of playable characters, assist trophies, and the like are released.

Patience?


edit: hay guys lets ask aries

 

[Jiggy]

Isn't Marth in the DS Fire Emblem?

Yep, yep, it's a remake of his game. I'd basically write off any rumor that says he's not in, just for this reason alone.

 

[ggnoobIGN]

Ridley will be revealed tonight. In spite of all of you.


Actually, probably not, seeing as he will be a secret character.

 

[Zek]

The only "leak" that is remotely credible is ChaosZero's, because of the Dragoon prediction. That's unlikely to be a coincidence. But there's still no guarantee that he didn't make up everything else. Other than that every single one is just some guy typing words with nothing to back them up.

Of course, that's probably what the real roster leak will be like too, if there is one. For all we know we really have seen it and it won't be taken seriously until release. That's what happened with Melee's roster apparently - it was leaked a month in advance, nobody believed it because it was so stupid, even after the screens started to come out.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Yeah, unless the Japan roster is different than the American Roster, we will know EVERYTHING in just a couple weeks. I mean, literally minutes after the game comes out in Japan, one guy will quickly hack it, or use Action Replay/Gameshark and tell us all the hidden characters.

 

[DDayton]

Wakka wakka wakka wakka.

 

[diablopanqueque]

I'm so hoping Jill Valentine (or Nemesis) will be playable as one of the other 3rd party characters.

 

[zoku88]

Gordon Freeman Confirmed?

maybe my friend can get in it also.

It's not your friend.

Spoiler

You murdered it ;___;

 

[nightside]

It'd be nice but, Snake already has the whole grenade, rocket launcher, non-firearm ordnance thing. What's Leon going to do, bust out his martial arts skills?

he will throw plagas and zombies....

 

[SantaC]

Duke Nukem is the 3rd party character

Spoiler

I can dream, cant I

it would be cool with an iconic western made character though...

 

[Alpha_eX]

I hate being stuck in PAL land, at least I can import Phoenix Wright and Layton, i'll have to wait for Smash Bros. You guys are going to have an awesome February with all the new games

Canadian websites are always poorly update with information about release dates. This is nothing new.

 

[HotByCold]

-Removed-

 

[kottila]

Maybe you shouldn't out him like that. You have limited your "source" down to only a few people.

 

[HotByCold]

He already broke the NDA when he told me and it's not like I'll tell you guys who he is.

 

[AniHawk]

He already broke the NDA when he told me and it's not like I'll tell you guys who he is.

Is it Batman?

 

[Grecco]

He already broke the NDA when he told me and it's not like I'll tell you guys who he is.

Its not like theres alot of translators anyways. :lol

 

[TheKingsCrown]

lolz what's up with all these peepz who don't know how to correctly implement their avatar?

 

[kottila]

I screwed up when re-sizing Marioized avatar and now I'm stuck with this text forever

 

[[Nintex]]

So, I know this guy who is a translator for the Uk version of the dojo and this is what he told me:


That there will be an detailed explanation of the power up system in SSE this week,
he don't have the exact date since they translated the updates in a groups of 5, and yes it was translated several months ago

If this prediction of his turns out true I'll add some of the other stuff he said( crazy stuff)

So edit Op and add me as a prophet.

Ask him for the European releasedate!

 

[Cynar]

Is it Batman?

Clark Kent!

 

[g.r.e.]

I hope that Ashnard will be in the game.
(sorry for my poor english, but why can't I hope with you, guys:lol ?)

 

[Kenka]

You know, I could totally see Ryu from Street Fighter in SSBB.

Not a bad guess. Ryu in SSBB would increase the hype for Street IV. It wouldn't be Capcom's worst move ever. But still, it's very unlikely to see a Capcom character after what we heared from Inafune.

 

[_Alkaline_]

Is it Batman?

No, he's a scientist.

 

[HotByCold]

Ask him for the European releasedate!

He has no idea.

 

[Sp3eD]

It won't happen, but if this game really does have the 65-75 levels.....holy shit.....

 

[Stumpokapow]

I hope that Ashnard will be in the game.
(sorry for my poor english, but why can't I hope with you, guys:lol ?)

Your English is fine
