[JohnTinker]

There had better be an EarthBound themed update tomorrow.

I think I'll stay up for this one, just for the heck of it

 

[SuperAngelo64]

After looking at those Kirby hats it just makes me want to say something I've said a billion times:


I only want Young Link to return in Brawl so his Final Smash can be transforming into Oni Link.


That would be quite possibly the coolest thing in the entire game.

 

[ivysaur12]

Tonight is obviously when they're going to reveal that Guillo is a playable character and that Diadem is the stage.

Obviously.

 

[SantaC]

Okay, I dont want to start a new thread for this. But if you could pick two characters from every 3rd party developer that could (had to appear on Nintendo console) star in Smash Bros, what would you pick?
Bolded are confirmed.

Konami (Solid Snake, Simon Belmont)
Capcom (MegaMan, Viewtiful Joe)
Squeenix (Kefka, Terra)
Namco (Lloyd, Kratos)
SEGA (Sonic, Vyse)
Tecmo (Ryu Hayabusa, Tecmo bowl character)
Ubisoft (Prince of persia, Rayman)
Midway (Sub-zero, Sonya Blade)
Blizzard (Olaf, Kyle Blackthorne)
EA (sorry cant think of 2 interesting characters :/)




Then let's see who is the closest of getting their characters right when it is all revealed

[sprsk]

Today's a national holiday, so there is a chance that the site won't update today. I think the site has updated on a national holiday before though, so I wouldn't be too worried.

I can see it now.

The update is late:

Half of everyone here interprets it as "OMFG NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHING UPDATE" and the other half interprets it as "OMFG WHERE'S THE UPDATE SCREW THE HOLIDAY"

 

[SuperAngelo64]

Konami (Simon Belmont, Cormano)
Capcom (Megaman, Ryu (his special moves are perfect B-moves))
Squeenix (Sora, Cecil (to plug the upcoming FF4 DS))
Namco (Siegfried, Xianghua)
SEGA (Sonic, NiGHTS)
Tecmo (Dana (Solomon's Key), Kasumi)



Ubisoft
Midway
Blizzard
EA


..........lol

There.

 

[Servbot #42]

How long until the update?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Tonight is obviously when they're going to reveal that Guillo is a playable character and that Diadem is the stage.

Obviously.

Man

I hope so

 

[grandjedi6]

How long until the update?

1 hour and 13 minutes

 

[SantaC]

There.

Dana from Solomons key would be awesome. 1+ for you.

 

[ohamsie]

I'm going to guess Zelda final smash for tonight. We haven't had a final smash in a while.

 

[EktorPR]

Konami (Solid Snake, Simon Belmont)
Capcom (MegaMan, Viewtiful Joe)
Squeenix (Kefka, Terra, Crono)
Namco (Lloyd, Kratos)
SEGA (Sonic, Vyse)
Tecmo (Ryu Hayabusa, Tecmo bowl character)
Ubisoft (Prince of persia, Rayman) NEITHER
Midway (Sub-zero, Sonya Blade) NEITHER
Blizzard (Olaf, Kyle Blackthorne) DON'T KNOW WHO THE FUCK THEY ARE
EA (sorry cant think of 2 interesting characters :/) ME NEITHER

EDIT: Happy, Raging Spaniard?

 

[grandjedi6]

Tonight is obviously when they're going to reveal that Guillo is a playable character and that Diadem is the stage.

Obviously.

YES PLEASE!!!

 

[HolyCheck]

Japan time waits for no holiday!

something special would be nice, to celebrate.. me.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

His name is Crono, not Chrono (thats the title), no "h", anyways:

Gimme Megaman, Crono, Simon Belmont, Pacman, Sonic aaaaaaand that River City Ransom dude.

Thatll make me more than content, never happen though.

I predict disappointment, happens often after character reveals.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Konami (Solid Snake, Simon Belmont)
Capcom (MegaMan, Leon Kennedy)
Squeenix (DQVIII Hero, Edgar)
Namco (Lloyd, Klonoa)
SEGA (Sonic, Billy Hatcher) - You have no idea how much I want to beat the shit out of Billy Hatcher
Tecmo (Ryu Hayabusa, Pangya Girl)
Ubisoft (Prince of persia, Rayman)
Midway (No)

 

[Jiggy]

Okay, I dont want to start a new thread for this. But if you could pick two characters from every 3rd party developer that could (had to appear on Nintendo console) star in Smash Bros, what would you pick?

Okay, I'm assuming this is a wishlist instead of predictions.


Konami (Solid Snake I guess has to be in, Goemon)
Capcom (Mega Man, Firebrand)
Squeenix (Rena*, Celes)
Namco (Colette, Milly)
SEGA (Sonic, NiGHTS)
Tecmo (Kasumi**, I have no idea who else)

*She was in Star Ocean Blue Sphere, so she was on a Nintendo system.
**Well, she was kinda sorta a costume type of thing in Super Swing Golf...

I have no investment in games by Ubisoft, Midway, Blizzard, or EA.

 

[Firestorm]

Capcom: Mega Man
Square Enix: Geno or Crono
Sega: Sonic & Tails combo character BELIEVE
Namco: Pac Man or Klonoa
Hudson: Bomberman
Ubisoft: Rayman

That's what I see as the possible choices.

I expect just Sonic

Spoiler

& TAILS COMBO CHARACTER

and Mega Man. Maybe Geno.

 

[Hero]

It's going to be the Ice Climbers special moves. B, forward B, and up and B. I expect all of them to be new or slightly changed.

 

[Firestorm]

It's going to be the Ice Climbers special moves. B, forward B, and up and B. I expect all of them to be new or slightly changed.

Why though? They didn't change the rest of the characters' moves too much from the looks of things.

 

[Jiggy]

Tonight is obviously when they're going to reveal that Guillo is a playable character and that Diadem is the stage.

Obviously.

At least you'll always have Ivysaur.

 

[Hero]

Why though? They didn't change the rest of the characters' moves too much from the looks of things.

I don't expect major changes but slight variations such as Link's attacks.

I just expect up and B to become more useable outside of them trying to recover onto the stage.

 

[vareon]

I predict someone's special moves, if there's going to be an update today.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Its funny how the IC hate is palpable, but sooo many people seem to want another 2 characters-in-one fighter.

It's one of those things I guess.

 

[Greenpanda]

i'm gonna go with the ICs' Final Smash as my prediction (assuming there IS an update)

 

[Firestorm]

Its funny how the IC hate is palpable, but sooo many people seem to want another 2 characters-in-one fighter.

It's one of those things I guess.

I think it's just me. I liked Ice Climbers and I would love a Sonic & Tails combo character because:

1. Tails is my favourite game character and I think this is the only way he's getting in
2. Ice Climbers are hands down the most fun character to watch due to their crazy combos and I feel S&T would be similar
3. It'd be a great throwback to the Genesis games

 

[fusoya59]

Since everyone's in predict mode, I may as well join in.

I predict that they'll announce a Screenshot/Replay mode. This mode will allow one to record a battle and distribute them to his/her Wii Friends. Moreover, one will be able to pause and capture any moment of the battle and share that screenshot through the Wii message board.

 

[grandjedi6]

Capcom (MegaMan)
Konami (Snake)
Hudson (Bomberman)
Ubisoft (Rayman) or (Jade) -- I wish
Sega (Sonic)

 

[sprsk]

It's like, grandparents day or something, so maybe we will get something with a grandparent theme.

 

[Verano]

 

[grandjedi6]

It's like, grandparents day or something, so maybe we will get something with a grandparent theme.

Cranky Kong confirmed?

 

[Baryn]

Predicting Jack Kerouac "newcomer"

 

[Jiggy]

I'd love to see that mode. At the same, I fear for the things Amir0x would do with screenshots of Ness.

 

[JonathanEx]

When was the last Story Mode update? They had a pattern, might be one of those today or Friday...

 

[Kelsonk]

Predicting Abe

 

[hoverboarder]

Mallow would be ill.

 

[SuperAngelo64]

Predicting either:

- New Song

- Boss character

- New character (Ganondorf)!

Mallow would be ill.

Don't get my hopes up. Mallow and Geno even as ASSISTS would make me... well.. that's not appropriate to talk about..

 

[PkunkFury]

Konami (Simon Belmont, Goemon)
Capcom (MegaMan, Chun Li)
Squeenix (Black Mage, Mog, Chrono)
Namco (Mr. Driller/Dig Dug)

 

[Jiggy]

When was the last Story Mode update? They had a pattern, might be one of those today or Friday...

7-20 - This World
8-3 - Subspace Emissary
8-21 - Subspace Army
8-24 - Petey Piranha (if you'd like to count him)
9-3 - Pit's Descent

 

[PunjabiPlaya]

I'm saying that there's gonna be something story-wise. Maybe another character video like the one we got of Ike, but this time Samus maybe.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Why do I stay up for these updates? Its 2 am and I have school in the morning....DAMN THE ANTICIPATION!

 

[Jiggy]

Golden Hammer? Well, okay.
Edit: Should have stuck with my original prediction. I would have had the "item" part and the "Mario" part correct. >_>

 

[JonathanEx]

SQUEAKY HAMMER!

 

[AndoCalrissian]

Ugh... new item. Really? We needed a MORE powerful version of this? This is the item, above all else, that is always set to off.

 

[PkunkFury]

hammer that also lets you fly? :\

 

[ohamsie]

Is the golden hammer from any specific Mario game? It looks kind of like one of the hammers in Paper Mario.

 

[HolyCheck]

Squeaksqueaksqueaksqueak!

 

[Chumly]

Golden Hammer! Looks like fun I love playing with items.
