GUYS LOOK AGAIN AT THE CHARACTER SELECT SCREEN!

New characters confirmed!?!

Hahaha, oh yellow guy.
 
Wifi is a fantastic addition. Glad to see it make it in.

After the Famicom Detective Club 2 statue in Melee, I'm actually pretty sad Brawl won't have any FDC love at all (at least, nothing has been revealed so far). :(

It's one of my favorite niche nintendo series. :(
 
Damn you UKer's man.

It's sooooo freaking easy to Mod the drive on this console and import.

There really is no excuses.
The money i saved on Super Paper Mario and MP3 paid for the Mod itself.

Also mines mounted outside the console so i can just unattach it for Euro games and attach it again for US games..... Easy
 
We’re planning a number of services that make use of Wi-Fi, but we’ll reveal them gradually with the other modes. Enjoy.

Amazing...simply amazing!
 
I haven't really gotten a chance to look in the topic just yet (especially as it grows and grows with the requisite and well-deserved "OMFG"s), but it looks like US names are up to five characters now, all the ones shown previously in shots were just four characters, to my recollection.


Edit: Beaten by :Motorbass. Still, for reference:

Which one is yours? Last time i heard there were compatibility issues with those mods so it's not guaranteed it'll work with Brawl amirite?
 
Yes Wifi! See, it was more advantegeous for them to do it as an update instead of a presentation bullet point.

I hope the 4 dpad directions have different poses and not just different messages. That would be exactly what I asked for and more.

Cool shit, game of the year.

WiiKey
MP3 plays okay, as do all import i have so far.
Its a drive chip and therefore can't be detected

The new Wii's now being released are anti moddable for these kinds of chips, but the first batch of Wii's are open to anything.

Duplicates a few channels on my system, but i can handle that to play MP3 and Brawl early!
 
Also, the reason for no rankings with random play is so people don't wuss out and disconnect.

You know it would have happened.

It also discourages hacks for score. Most of the time hacks are done for score. If no one else knows of your victory, what's it worth?

That is the hacker's mentality.

Wait, so...

Is it randomly picked who gets to choose the stage, is it voting like in MKDS, or what?

HA HA! Nobody believed me or Nintendo! I told you all that it would still have WiFi and there was nothing to worry about, they announced it 2 friggin years ago! if they said it's gonna be be their flagship online game then they wouldn't welch something like that!

Look, player 3 is choosing a stage, obviously it's done either by voting like in MKDS or it's done in a kind of loser/winner chooses next fashion.

HOT SHIT MIIs CONFIRMED, please please please be a playable character! (Probably likely since all the icons are of playable characters!)

Great little touch there!

YAY! possible DLC? great to hear more use of WFC and Wiiconnect 24!
 
My biggest concern laid to rest, now I just hope the PAL version is delayed into the next century and I'll be 1 happy chappy

Is damn not a cuss word in Japan?

Well it actually says "Shimatta", not literally 'damn'. It's just something you say when something that sucks happens.




Also, I'm looking at the 'avatar select' window and it looks like it's basically every character that's been announced.

So is that it for the default roster?

Actually all the playable characters have a light blue background and generic icons just seem to have a white background.

I really REALLY wouldn't count on Mii's being playable combatants.

No
There's a scroll bar on the side, so plenty more there. and they wouldn't show everyone now would they!!
 
For those wining about win/loss stats, there will probably be a ranked mode that records stats. There has been an option for ranked matches in every single WiFi game Nintendo has ever made, I doubt they're suddenly not gonna do one for their flagship WFC game on Wii! And if that happens, you'll get to see people's names as well!

For those worrying about lag over long distances, don't worry about it! Mario Strikers (Which is probably almost as or just as frantic as SSB) runs flawlessly cross continental over a decent connection (I imported a US Wii and the US game to the UK and my connection runs flawlessly, why they disallowed cross region play, I have no idea!)

There's tons of space for more characters! (Look at the slider!) but I hope that's all the default characters cause I want loads of unlockables :D
 
Nice that they dont give ANY information about your opponent, i hope this will prevent people from disconnecting and other lame behaviour!
Now that SSBB is online this game's sales are going to sky rocket even more!:lol can't wait!

This is awesome news. Hopefully they build in a penalty for disconnects.

The only ranked matches are against your friends. So if your friends disconnect, you are in charge of penalizing them and enforcing justice as you see fit.
 
Great to see the Smash-not-online whiiners can finally shut up. ;)
I'm not big with online gameplay... I love local multiplayer modes, how else are you going to suckerpunch someone who just did something extremely stupid? Just kidding, I welcome the addition. So, not quite as enthusiastically as some others:

OH. HELL. YES.

I just know I will get my ass handed back to me in online fights. I can't compete in Tetris, Mario Kart, Hunters, or Strikers. :lol
