I'm going to be very busy this holiday. Zack and Wiki, GH III, Mario, Trauma Center, and Fire Emblem are the Wii games I'm getting, and it doesn't account for the 360 titles I'm picking up or the DS games. Like what happened with GTA IV, I'm glad that it was delayed. Gives my wallet some time to breathe, and me some quality time with each game (hopefully).

well if the jpn delay is any indication the US delay wont be long. Maybe only a month.

Ah yes, in the early 90's you either were on the sega side or the nintendo side. Genesis vs. SNES, Mario vs sonic. It would be a fantasy if the two would duke it out in a game, but alas you knew this would never happen. And so time goes on, the playstation joins the race, the n64, and then later sega fans get the dreamcast. As the dreamcast is at its gamming peak, the ps2 enters and destroys it.

And so the rumors of a third party sega go around, many sega fans deny it. But then It happens and sega goes third party. One of the Megathons of its year. So it's official, that the blue blur would make his debut on a nintendo console, with sonic adventure dx. After the smash brothers melee, rumors go around that sonic could enter the next game, where even EGM did a april fools joke about it.

Again time goes on and the next melee is now a brawl. Rumors once again revolved around sonic being in the game, especially when solid snake was announced to make an a apperance. After than anything could happen.

Then mario and sonic at the olympics is announced. Sonic has to be in brawl, yet we are still skeptical. Then it happens. As I refresh the Dojo page every 3 secs as alot of us did, i see the "warning challenger approaching" with a few scroll clicks down, my childhood gaming dream has finally come true. Thank you nintendo and sega from the bottom of my heart..

A brief history of Legendary.

Actually, I do, very much.

Beside Super Mario Galaxy, the Wii is heading into another lackluster holiday season, and I don't care for sales. I want games.

They'll probably rely on Super Smash Bros Brawl to take care of the first half of 2008, and the rest will be an empty void, as always.

And because you guys are so used to this, it's normal, it's fine, and now that they sell a lot of consoles, you can spin this the way you want : But, as a gamer, I give a damn about the delay.

Am I wrong?

Agreed. It's not wallet or games I'm concerned about. It's time. This is my most anticipated game. My time to play it is in December. I care if it misses the time period I really have to play it.

The real question is how Sakurai can possibly follow up last night's announcement.
Mega Man.

Megaton total overload if it happens.

Mega Man Legends alternate costume, Mega Man X alternate costume plz
 
I think, as inevitable as it may have been, is the biggest, most exciting, megaton to come about it ages.


I mean....Sonic in Smash Bros?! That is something we were talking about for the last 5-6 years!
 
i dont think itll be delayed in the US.. theres just been so much confirmation of its release date. pretty sure the kirby final smash update with the japanese only cooking mama song stuff was an indication of perhaps some japanese only content.

Well this game gotta have a few megatons left since there is still some time for the release. I expect atleast one more fantastic 3rd party character.

Not likely. Snake is the designated Konami-boy this time around (as much as I would have preferred Simon).

So, my gut instinct? It's either going to be Mega Man (Capcom) or some one from the Square Enix stable that could be feasible for such a game like this (Black Mage would be an idea, I would think, plus it would speak more about FF as a whole, rather than just using any one character from the popular games).

Exactly. For Wii-exclusive gamers... this is bad news. For the rest of us it's good (rooted in the soil of heartbreak, of course, but still good.)

a FF6 character would be sweet. I want Terra (Tina). More females.

Honestly, this is the high point of the game for me. Having Sonic in this is just...wow. 12 hours later and I still can't believe what I'm seeing. :lol

I'm going to guess online co-op for tonight, and perhaps a new stage. At this point, we've been getting so many double and triple updates, I'm beginning to wonder if they'll just be happening all the time now.

Crono will never appear in a video game again, sadly to say.

I doubt Konami will get two characters, so I doubt it will be him.

I say if we get one more third party character, it will be Mega Man.

And just to spit in our faces, it will be the Star Force version.

In my honest opinion Sakurai deserves just a LITTLE more time to complete his dream project. I think a lot of Smash Bros. fans will be grateful for years to come once the game is out, so what's another month?

Gripe about a game where delays are a REAL problem, like Too Human or something.
 
As Mario and Smash Bros. were the only two games I was anticipating this holiday for Wii, I'm pretty disappointed about a potential delay to January.

In the long run though it won't matter. This will be one of the greatest games ever created.

My honest opinion is that the game has been essentially finished for a month or three. They might make tiny changes, but they could go gold any time they want. The delay is entirely for marketing, schedule, and retail purposes.

It is Mega Man's 20th anniversary. What better way to celebrate than to put him in Smash.

And announce MMPU2

I honestly don't think Nintendo would intentionally skip out on the holiday season. If it was ready, it'd be out before the holidays.
 

Jea Song

Did the right thing
Melee itself, even without snake, sonic, and online would of been great. But nintendo has gone way above what is expected. I cannot believe the amount of content in this game. I expect this game to be the best selling wii game in its life cycle. The replay value is unlimited.

I dont know about that. Im sure the game could go gold now if they had to, but I guarantee they will improving and adding on to whatever they have until the last second before they release it. Think about the online mode...this is a HUGE undertaking and the extra time can be used to polish it. Also they can spend the time cleaning up the graphics and balancing the game (improving, tweaking movesets). Lets not forget the sheer scope of this game....Im sure they are not sitting around twiddling thier thumbs.

That's exactly what I think, too, but that might be because I'm bitter or angry. After all, we still have Super Mario Galaxy... but, still...

DEMO

What's this? A demo?

[Screenshot: Demo Press Start Screen]
It's just like the real thing!


It means... it means you can play the game!

Click-Click!


It looks like it's up right now! WOW!

I say the Sonic update pretty much confirms Megaman as well.

Yes, you can quote me on that.
I'll agree with this.

I'm a big support of the list theory, as well. I'd be shocked and appalled if Mega Man does not make it.

*goes to watch the Sonic video again*

I'd play a demo even if it involved nothing but playing 1vs1 Mario mirror matches.
Hell, I'd even play that thing with the sandbag during loading times.

Well I expect a Capcom character, but there is plenty to choose from. Megaman, Viewtiful Joe, Leon Kennedy, Jill Valentine, etc.

I don't think anyone has the right to be shocked and appalled at anything in this game anymore.
 
Even with this I'm still scared about this upturning Halo 3. It's huge (and fun). A lot more than I thought it would be. Will Brawl have a chance? I hope so...

P.S. I got it and it's awesome...I feel so sinfull
