Christ, the more Pokemon that appear in the game, the more fun the pokeball item is going to be.

And the other franchises HAVE their own pokeball-like item. It is called an ASSIST TROPHY.

19. It's the number you get when you add 5 to 14.

A) You obviously have never played a Pokemon game, Pokemon Diamond is probably one of the highest quality games for DS out at the moment.
B) You may be 3 years my senior but Pokemon is a huge part of my childhood. The franchise is over 10 years old now.

Whatever. Kids are kids.

Actually, at 18 you are considered an adult in many parts of the world. In my province, you are considered an adult at the age of 19. This means that there is in fact a difference between 14 and 19. The statement "kids are kids" does not apply here.

OK, I'm a little confused here. It seems Speevy is worried that there will be too much emphasis on Pokemon in Smash Bros, but I'm not sure what he's using to balance it against.

OK, right now, we know of two characters from the Pokemon series, right? This matches the number of characters from the Donkey Kong, Metroid, Zelda, and Kirby series. So, what? Is he suggesting that Pokemon is not as prominent as these?

From Mario, we know of five, this, being Nintendo's flagship series, is to be expected.

Oh, and until a character is revealed, anything more is pure speculation...so is Speevy just upset that there exists a single item from the Pokemon series?

I'm still confused.

But the main problem I have with pokemon in SSBB is that there is no equivalent to pokeballs for the other franchises (Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc). The presence of pokeballs at the expense of appearances of recognizable characters/objects from the other main games makes SSBB seem like some kind of Smash Bros/Pokemon hybrid game, not a Smash Bros game where every franchise gets its time in the spotlight.
Assist Trophies, anyone? I don't know about you, but to me they seemed exactly like the rest of the franchises' answer to Poké Balls that you're talking about. And I get the feeling that there will be a lot more Assist Trophy characters than Poké Ball Pokémon. Just think of the two as one item that has two appearances.

Can we stop the pokemon discussion already? It's almost time for a new update :D

I agree :D In my opinion, for such a large francise, It is pretty balanced among the other ones. In Melee, I never though of Pokemon being that big. It was a decent level. Also, shouldn't we be predicting by now? We've gotten off schedule guys, come on! :lol

Are downloadable versions of those new songs going to be made available at some point? Just curious.
Chances are Nintendo will release another compilation of the songs, preformed by the New Japan Philharmonic Concert, and it will be better than the actual tracks used in game.

If they repeat Melee, then the tracks can be played separately from the main game and a rip can be made.

Nice logical fallacy there.

I don't really know why you goes think that Ness isn't going to be in the game. He was in the last 2 and everybody sence the first one is probably going to be in this game like melee.

You might argue that Lucas will replace him. Hmmmmm... Might, but I really doubt it. Look to who they are marketing to.. There are really two groups:

1. The "oldies"-type guys that stuck it out through the kinda rough spots of Nintendo. This game is almost ( Please don't yell at me) like fanservice to fans. YES, I relize it is not. Beleve me I REALLY want to play brawl, it is going to be awesome!

Maybe 13....14 kinda 15ish +

2. The kinda youngish maybe younger brother/sister type people. They look it up and Ness is nowhare to be seen, replaced by some other guy "of the same series" . Ness has really only won popularity in America because of SSB. Honestly. Earthbound/Mother has never been made in America.

6...7...8.. to maybe 11ish

Why make a change if they don't have too? I honestly don't care either way. I hope this is kind of cleared it up. Can we now stop argueing if you think either side? It doesn't really matter anyway. It is just a game. Literally. :D

EDIT: Ready for you guys to yell at me... :lol

Why do you think there won't be anything new about the Fire Flower? Maybe it'll shoot fireballs instead of a flame cone this time (or something)?

There's still 6 hours until the update. Plenty of time to bitch and moan.
Now you're just being a jerk.

ROTFL!!!! :lol
 
I hope they don't put every item/pokemon on the site before its release date; would be kinda disapointing to already know everything about the game before playing it.

I predict stage.

btw, it should be noted that predicting stage = you have no fucking clue wtf is coming, so you predict stage.

My only day off this week is tomorrow. That means I get to stay up and witness the update first-hand.

And that almost invariably means: Crappy item

These predictions are all too vague. Worthless. What stage? Which character? What part of how to play? One should at least predict the franchise the stage/character/etc. is coming from.

Otherwise, it's just too weak.
