I would buy a Wavebird if I'd find a good deal. Dealing with the GC controller cables is getting annoying after playing with wireless controllers for so long.

I had my GCN at a friend's house for about a year since we played there more often. 4 GCN controllers, 4 PS2 controllers, and 4 Dreamcast controllers all in the same little bucket. That was a nightmare.

Edit: Dreamcast, not GCN again. Stupid brain.

That's my prediction.
Going after the things confirmed in the first trailer, eh? Not a bad strategy.

I'm still predicting Peach's final smash.

God, that would drive me insane. I'm not a neat freak or anything, but tangled controller cables annoy the shit out of me.
 
so, what was the consensus on Ridley being confirmed as a boss??

as I was listening to the old music updates, I noticed something odd, the name of the SSBB version of ridley's song is called Metroid:Boss Battle Music(Ridley Fight), this was before we knew about boss battles right?

if this song wasn't for a boss battle in the adventure mode it would be called something like Metroid:Ridley Fight (Boss Battle).

The real question now is if some boss characters can also be playable, I wonder if Sakurai will ever tell us that in a update or wait for the game to be released



oh, and has anyone requested Phanto as an assist trophy? Then I'll be the first

ASSIST TROPHY: PHANTO, PLZ SAKURAI

Odd, as at the bottom of the screen we see that Super Smash Bros. is the only series from which the player has collected any trophies.

I read that as "Page 1/1 of the Super Smash Bros. series section", myself, but could go either way.

I'm fairly confident Ridley is a boss character now, not a playable character. I think they would have to alter him immensely to make him a fair playable character, and that would be a rather swift kick to the balls of Ridley fans the world over. Maybe.

Halo 3 thread stands no chance confirmed.
They ain't gonna pass us in views. Maybe posts, temporarily, but the Dojo thread will overcome it in the end. This thread has legs.

Just wait for the inevitable Sonic announcement.

Look at the top poster for Halo 3. Holy shit.
How many posts does he have?

And how do you get that list of number of posts by each member in a given thread anyway? Never figured that out.

you have been away for a while, so you might not know, but Lynn is a playable character in Halo 3.
 
Hi, Zeed! Welcome back!

I own

2 'chucks
2 wiimotes
1 classic
and a lot of Gamecube Controllers

Although I have no idea how many work, probably like none. :p
Not was much cool stuff as you guys, but it works, so I'm happy. Either way, when my friends come over, they usally bring their own wiimote.

Holy fucking shit.

Buttonbasher - 929

DoctorWho - 711
So there's one guy with 20 less than me, and another with about 200 more. Halo fans are insane confirmed.

Anyway I'm trying to pick up a few extra Wavebirds cheap for Brawl. Once you go wireless it's really hard to go back.
 
Wave-birds are nice. Although the port is kinda chucky. It makes it hard sometimes to plug it in, especally is it a Wii and on a shelf. It is better than not a Wave-bird though, so I should stop whining :lol It's a great improvement to the GC. I agree with Zeed! I really hate my cord ones now..

I'd seriously post more in this thread if it wasn't so damn incoherent

Plus, I've already called SB awesome, what more can I do?

Ridley really is the perfect fit for a boss character. It's hard to envision him as a playable, but he's so iconic that he has to have a prominent role in this game.


And yeah, some of those Halo fans are pretty scary. That said, you're not much better yourself, Zeed. :p Gone for two weeks and still ahead.

Maybe it's an awesome item. Like... Tingle's balloon: allows you to float through the air, just like a certain 35-year old fairy.

At that price you should've gotten four.

Hell you should've gotten a dozen.

Damn, that's a steal. I guess that's the point where I break down sobbing, admitting that I'm in Europe. The thing is ~30€ and upwards, if you can find one. :/

I'll keep checking our European equivalents for better deals, though. :)

What's your favourite feature out of the things unveiled so far? Got a prediction to share with us for tomorrow?

I dunno. What's worse: 20k posts of an update thread that's lasted for a months for a game that's still over 2 months away or 20k posts made in 2 weeks for the biggest game of the year?

Stop answering your own questions. 20k in two weeks without system wars. Insane.

I know I'm being AniHawk'd right now but I'd definitely say that 20k posts spread out over several months is definitely a lot less insane than 20k posts within 2 weeks.

No way I could pick a favorite feature. Do we know if the 20 chars shown so far are the final roster, or if there could be more? Same with the stages?

Also, how much is known about the single player? I don't *really* care about it, but I'm kind of curious, since there seems to be so much other random stuff packed into the game.

I'm trying to figure out how you guys went all this time without gathering Wavebirds... I've had FIVE Wavebirds for the past several years, thanks to GameCrazy's standard price of $20 for a used Wavebird.

Oh, Platinum Wavebird...

The only single player mode revealed up to this point is Adventure Mode: Subspace Emissary. There's a storyline this time, including cutscenes to tie everything together, and there's apparently a much bigger focus on action/side scrolling stages as well as an original antagonist faction.

We've got no updates focused on one of those side scrolling stages specifically- only many shots from completely different areas in separate updates - even one with a locked door. Multiple characters are playable through it, but the method of choosing them (or if the character is determined by the storyline) still isn't known.

There will be more characters, and more stages.

The question is, from which franchises will they come?

How can anyone not want Ridley as a playable character? Bowser, Mewtwo and Ganondorf need some more "boss" friends! :D

A playable character-sized Ridley would be cool, sure. But a Petey Piranha Boss-sized Ridley would be so much cooler. :D Ridley just has to be huge and epic, imo.

It has to be that way. I guess the Prime trilogy spoiled us. :D

You mean Ridley and Giga
maybe Meta
Ridley? hm, I guess it's possible.

I'm not seeing it, but I won't deny the possibility. First of all, let's hope that he's in the game in some form at all (aside from being a trophy/sticker only).
