If I lived in Europe, I'd have imported a US Wii because I'd want to import every single game from the US and have them all earlier... Wouldn't be able to get a Japanese copy of Brawl.

Unless I just bought a Japanese Wii too. And I'm trying pretty hard to tell myself it's not worth it as it is. D:

Mod Chip baby

How would the online work?

would it still work against other people here.. or would it work against people in japan.. or friends only?

Don't care, none of my mates have it yet and I'm not playing random matches with the great unwashed that is Smash Bros pro players.

On this screen, you can also select which character you start a match with when playing as Pokémon Trainer or Zelda/Sheik.

Does this mean we can't start off as ZSS? There's no mention of Samus here...

EDIT: beaten... twice
 
Well. We've certainly gone full circle.

From listing our starting songs, back to the first day's list of all the musicians to savor over.
And now from "The Basic Rules" to basically, How to get Started.

How to get started indeed!

Though, I wonder what this leaves us... are we still getting daily updates?
Is it sporadically random now? What I say??
 
Same Jiggy. Changing to Stock was always a pain. Same with changing to Friendly Fire on for team matches.

I'm still hoping that Zero Suit Samus is an unlockable or something or I won't be using her much at all once I get bored of Final Smashes.
 
I would have went BONKERS for this update if not for all the leaks we already had! :(

Did he just deconfirm selectable Zero Suit Samus?

He specifically mentions selecting Sheik and the initial Pokemon Trainer Pokemon, but no ZSS...

This was the very first thing I thought. It's going to be SOOOOOOOOOOOO lame if you truly cannot select ZSS from the start :( No ZSS playable when smash balls are turned off? Seems like a huge huge oversight...
 
On a happier note and so that we can at least get some joy out of tonight, this comes from the last Iwata Asks (and Iwata Asks has been linked to by the Dojo, so I think it should be safe territory for this thread, and needs to be read since more people visit here):

I mean, we’re only on the third title in the series and whether or not you’ve played a previous version is not that important.
Stealth confirmation of Smash Bros. 4? I hope so. :D

Bloody Brawl. Why couldn't he show us something other than something we all know.

The item screen is nice, as is choosing your pokemon. These are things the leakers didnt look at

However, while the quick stock/time change is nice, I hope there are more ind epth options, like stock with time limit.

Mario's gonna die.


And hey, you can turn off exploding crates!
 
Actually I believe the "select your Pokémon" thing was leaked last night. This update is one of those that just has to be there, though, ya know?
 
I'm disappointed by the random thing. :/ I often used it in Melee when I couldn't decide which of my eight mains/secondaries (Jigglypuff, Falco, Luigi, Ganondorf, Dr. Mario, Captain Falcon, Pikachu, Ice Climbers) I wanted to use: I'd just select randomly and go with whoever it landed on first.

With Brawl adding Meta Knight, King Dedede, and Pokemon Trainer, and probably buffing up Zelda, I would have just as much of an issue this time around even if they removed Falco, Ganondorf, and Dr. Mario and Captain Falcon--and I've always said that I think Doc's the only one of those who's leaving the roster. Possibly Falco too, but probably not. And then there's still the possibility that I'll actually like some of the characters who aren't on the Dojo, and/or that I'll end up really enjoying some of the characters I've kind of written off.

I guess I'll just have to play each of my ~15 mains/secondaries every time I turn on the game, or something. D:

Edit: And that's not even counting Charizard and Ivysaur separately. D:

Actually, someone who played the store demo confirmed that.

We just didn't know it applied to Zelda/Sheik as well, since she wasn't playable in a regular multiplayer battle then.

Are they really considered "mains" if there's 12 of them?
I did say mains/secondaries. :P Brackets = unconfirmed for Brawl.

Mains: [Jigglypuff], Meta Knight, Kirby
Secondaries: Zelda, [Captain Falcon], King Dedede, Ivysaur, Charizard, [Ganondorf], [Falco], Ice Climbers, [Luigi], Pikachu, Sheik


Edit: And I had gone back and edited my figure up to 15 to account for the unknown characters.
Edit 2: I forgot Sheik! D: I want her as a secondary too now that she's probably not broken like before.

I'm one of those people who like to use a random character and I am most pleased with the change. In melee and other fighting games that told me what the random character is sometimes I'd get someone I'm terrible with and wuss out. This way I go into battle with no regrets.
 
I'm not terrible with Link, Donkey Kong, Fox, or Yo--well, with the first three, anyway. It's just that I hate their fighting styles and don't want to play them. >_> Same with Wario probably, although obviously I have no idea how good or bad I am with him yet.
 
There had BETTER be some way to use Zero Suit Samus at the start of the match. If there isn't, that's a terrible decision on Sakurai's part.
 
I bet Deku Nuts will stun opponents for a few seconds if they're within a certain distance. Just in case that wasn't completely obvious.

Doooesn't look like it.
This post could go on by saying something else, but that would...
 
Ugh. Anyone else keep accidentally (honestly!) clicking the spoiler thread, instead of this thread? Luckily a lot has died down by now so I didn't get spoiled too much, but I can't be alone...

sp0rsk being a no-show by now? he must've gotten it... right??

Yes, I've done that a few times, but thankfully realized it, averted my eyes, and closed that tab before seeing anything. It gives me hope that people are saying that all the new stuff they're learning is sapping their appreciation for the dojo updates, though. I was sort of worried that the dojo had given most of the good stuff away.

I'd love to see a spoiler-free impression thread, though.
 
It's the 37th game mode, there are no days of updates left before the Japanese release, and that's it. Nothing else to say. Really.

Kind of sad, in a way. =(

Well, we can still burn with jealousy for Japan highly anticipate our own release!

Come on, there has to be something else.

"Uh oh!"

"Is everyone all right?"
