Smash Bros Brawl Dojo Official Update Thread: Goodbye, Cherry-don

Not open for further replies.
Strictly speaking Canvas Curse is also highly significant in that it, along with Meteos (thanks Sakurai!) ended the Nintendo DS drought and absolutely validated the touchscreen at the same time. It was completely stylus controlled and was perhaps the first DS game that absolutely could not have been done on another system. It singlehandedly vindicated Nintendo's philosophy for me. Setting hands on it for the first time was a nearly revelatory experience.
 
SPECULATION ONLY:

Let's just say that the character select screen at E for All was from the final version of the game.

Hypothetically.

If we consider that Luigi and Captain Falcon are automatic shoe-ins then the addition of Dedede fills up the entire roster for extra character.

Technically, IF the E for All did have the right dimensions for the character select boxes, it would be filled up.


NOTE: THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO LOOK FANCY! I THREW IT TOGETHER IN MS PAINT:

I approve of this update. Sakurai has yet to introduce a stupid character (at least this time around).
yet to introduce a stupid character? Did you not see the lucas update? :P

No...

With so many newcomers, this game will not have less playable characters than Melee. Even if it is just speculation.
 
Why oh why, of all the updates, did I end up sleeping on this one.

King DeDeDe!!!!

Awesome!!!

That is all. You may now return to your regularly scheduled thread.
 
Lol, every newcomer announcement will trigger a Krystal argument. I dislike the character myself, but it's pretty hilarious how much people get worked up over her. The Krystal haters seem to passionately hate her as much as furries seem to passionately love her (O_o).

But anyway, now that Dedede's on the way, that's 99 per cent of the "predictable newcomers" out of the way. Here's my list of possible newcomers, based on popularity and 'significance'.


Extremely Likely:
Captain Olimar
Krystal
Lucario


Pretty Likely:

Tom Nook/Animal Crossing Character?
Tingle
Ridley
Bowser Jr.
Takamaru
WW Link
K.Rool


Might Happen:

Midna w/Wolf Link
Micaiah
Black Shadow
Mona
Paper Mario

Seemed Likely, but Chances Have Sunk Extremely Low
Wolf
Sigurd
Dixie Kong


Little Mac was a very popular choice, but got knocked out (pun intended) since he's an AT. That increased Takamaru's chances. Probably.

Can't believe this thread is almost 700 pages long.

It'd be quite funny to see it hit 1,000. Will GAF shit itself..?

Someone needs to chronicle the entire thread and sell it as an eBook.

actually this makes me hope they got rid of kirby's mallet move
It was in the E For All video when Kirby fights Petey, used in the air, but it looked like it had better animation and power than before.

Squeak squad outsold canvas curse? wow
"Outsold" is understating matters; it destroyed Canvas Curse. Going by Media Create, Squeak Squad is almost surely a million-seller in Japan alone by now, while the last thing we saw of Canvas Curse it was hovering around like 350,000.

Bufbaf, ffs, im gonna kill you ;-;
I CAN FIND MOAR IF YOU WANT THEM!

I really think, she's a pretty cool character. And I don't run around and accusing you of wanting to bang Mario, just to make sure you won't write what you want to write right now. Right?

edit: lol@above =)
 
So Dedede will be into the party too. Nintendo has created to many characters, that it is impossiblt to include them all, but Sakurai is damn close to reach that impossible !
 
What the hell is up with all these Mandrion wannabes.

First Myke Greywolf, and now Bubaf. It's like every time you ban one two more sprout up in its place.

Now we wont get another veteran for another 2 weeks :( or a New challenger for up to 2- 3 weeks. Just speculation from Jiggly's data.. I think?
We went ten days without a character between Sonic and King Dedede, true.
...But that's also the longest period we've ever had without a character, so we might get another one sooner.
...But then again, maybe character updates have to slow down because of the delay. It's really hard to say where things will go from here. >_>

So do you want to go out with me? Your sense of humor seems to be extraordinaire!

edit oh for fuck it was a JOKE people. Calm down.

Believe it or not your shtick is old and unfunny. Mandrion did it a lot more convincingly (and even more annoyingly) than you could ever hope to. And he only threatened to post erotic pictures of Krystal.

wtf did you just say? Did you even get my posting?

oh, whatever.
 
Between Sakurai and Iwata there is too much Kirby bias at Nintendo nowadays. :lol

I've vaguely hated Kirby ever since I played his first game, Kirby's Dream Land, and beat it unbelievably fast. Game for babies. Zzzzz.

I played the sequel, which had animals you could ride and was much better, but missed out on all his GBA and SNES games.

Kirby Canvas Curse was totally awesome, but I don't think Nintendo is ever going to do one of those again.

I guess I just think that the Kirby franchise is average and forgettable but gets waaaaay too much support and games from Nintendo. It might just be because Kirby skews younger and the games came out after I was past that target audience so I have no nostalgic feelings for the character.

I got everything you said, and I'm going to tell you the same thing I told Mandrion before he got banned - you're being not funny or edgy, you're just disgusting. Let it go.
 
Tails was confirmed as an assist trophy during E for All. He follows you and picks you up if you fall. It was fairly big news as it confirmed third party assist trophies.

Luigi though is going to be playable, for sure.

Go download ZNES then play KSS and you'll see what the fuss is about. Co-op platformer of eternity (until Brawl comes out anyway).

These two things probably go hand in hand. Dreamland on GB, Dreamland 2 on GB, Dreamland 3 on SNES, and Crystal Shards on N64 are pretty blah games.

On the other hand, Kirby Super Star on SNES, Kirby and the Amazing Mirror on GBA, Nightmare in Dreamland on the GBA, and Squeak Squad on the DS are all excellent. (Though Super Star is still head and shoulders above the others.) If you enjoy Smash Bros, which you probably do since you're in here, I don't think it's possible to not also enjoy Super Star at the very least. That's where a great number of the SSB mechanics came from.

What the hell, I AM not even a damn furry, and I don't like to be called one. If I can't even make a single joke post, clearly related to the krystal discussions one page before, to make Zeed come up and insult me, fine. But then let me say: You've got some serious problems up there, dear sir. And you should read spoilers, too. Geez.

Actually, it was fairly small news compared to what it should have been. I only ever saw a few posts about it here and never saw anything on it elsewhere. Do you have a link to where it was confirmed?
