Try it out with Samus - the differnce IS very slight, but it can be enough to keep you alive.

I seems uncomfortable using the control stick to jump in a direction. To me, it's a lot more responsive if you just use the buttons to jump and tilt the control stick which ever way.

Awesome fighting music, I just listened to it while playing Melee to see if MrNibbles was full of shit.

I didn't see any difference in jumping, but I only tried it with Mario.

I'll try again with Samus later.

God I love that song.

Anyhoo, my prediction for the mornin's update is...something either item or character related.

Nope. >_>
Give me... a few days.

Annnnd we find a new way to use your obsession to our amusement. Thanks, Jiggly.

And pulga, I have high hopes for you.

My prediction, as I missed the comic gold of predicting wide screen, is still difficulty sliders.

The first time you said this, I told myself I'd reply once I figured out why you picked December 6th. But I still haven't figured that out. It's not a Friday, it's not the original US launch date. Is it merely random in the spirit of the randomness of Sakurai himself?
Because I expected Dec. 3rd + a few days of updates, anyway, leaving Friday for people to enjoy the game (hypothetically, since it's not happening now). I'm hoping he ends it there, anyway.
 
I'm starting to get the feeling the character select dimensions on the demo were the true dimensions.

That means no more new characters aside from Luigi or The Knee.

There must be a stage with Galaxy´s mind fucking gravitational ups and downs. I´m thinking one of those 2D stages where the gravity flipped according to the arrows.

After sitting out many (probably all) megatons and about 5 months of updates, it feels good to be able to post now.

Anyways, my first ever official Dojo predicition will be:


media-medical-hw-n5551159.jpg



Oh yes, you guys better BELIEVE.

I like this.

I'm gonna say we'll get another How to Play update. Air Dodge/Walking and Running. Or better yet, Title Screen, just to get those out the way for the best Month of updates ever, December. November can't be saved. :/

Damnit, now I really want Hector in Brawl.

More blue you say? He would be interesting but Ike is pretty much what he would be but with a sword. And I'm sure people will be confused enough with 2 blue-haired FE reps. I love that Armads CRIT.
 
I fall into the camp that thinks that the only unlockable characters that we'll see before launch are third parties', since they can actually boost the sales of the game. It seems like Sakurai has taken a fair amount of influence from SSB64 (entrances, slightly slower pace, etc.) and I think this will apply to characters as well. I think that any character that has been unlockable in the series before will be secret characters in Brawl. However, it's possible that characters like Jigglypuff, Luigi, and Captain Falcon may get shown before launch because they are popular series staples. I think that the only characters we are likely to see in the next few weeks are Sheik and another third party or two (even though I would love to be proven wrong by the triumphant return of the Knee).

Bah, I'm sure they can make a moveset with an axe-wielder different enough. Plus he wears heavier armor, and has a different haircut then Ike, no one would get confused.

I figure that, if they were going to have a Fire Emblem axe wielder in Smash, they would differentiate him from the sword wielder by making him heavy, slow, and powerful while keeping the sword wielder quick and light. But from what I hear, Ike is heavy, slow, and powerful, so having an axe wielder would be a bit redundant. I mean, yeah, he could easily have different moves and such, but why have two heavy, slow, powerful characters from a franchise that offers the potential of so much variation?

I was really talking about the confusion of their relation to each other. We know they are not related but they could easily fool people who don't know. Marth, Ike, and Hector: teh FE brothers! They look like brothers anyways. :P

A moveset wouldn't be a problem, but balancing Hector could be a bit difficult.

People thought Marth and Roy were from the same game. Just because some new to the series won't recognize the characters right away, or make wrong assumptions about them, doesn't mean the game is going to sell less, or drive people away.

But really, I just want more FE representation. It doesn't have to be Hector, I'm just saying it would be cool.
 
I'll predict something big tonight, so I say new character. Either that, or a Sonic stage, which also qualifies as a megaton as long as it's not just some floating platforms with some sonic-related background, like 99% of the stages so far seem to be, at least the stage-creator should be more than enough to fix that tho :D

It would be cool if you could put gaming-related backgrounds in your custom stages now that I think about it...
 
Lots of Metal Gear love in those new screens. I think I'll change my prediction to Snake's final smash tonight, just because. Updated OP is looking really nice, too. Keep up the good work, guys.
 
Good job with updates Cosmonaut X.

For tonight I predict a new character.
please Sakurai make it happen

I haven't actually made a serious prediction, so it's time to cue up the G.U.E.S.S.--the Greatly Unknowledgeable Estimation System Service. The G.U.E.S.S. tells me that tonight we get our F-Zero stage. This stage will be one of the famous cylinder levels and the cylinder will rotate as you fight on it. Yes, yes.

I'd love an F-Zero update. What happened to the series :(

on the topic of the widescreen update... it is kinda a good idea to put that circle in the back, i mean its such a small thing but its very helpful

Little touches are a Nintendo hallmark, Smash just happens to have a lot of the big touches too.

I think FE deserves 4 slots. It's not gonna happen though. :lol
I can see 3 reps tho, Marth, Ike, and [insert female]

3 to 2 probably... I have a feeling that Mario is going to have a lot... I really hope not anymore though. They have, at least in my opinon, used the cream of the crop already.

I don't mean to be mean, but no Geno please. Nobody really knows who he is. He does have a really good AT chance though.

Please don't flame me... ):

I think there is an outside chance that Brawl just happens to have about the same number of characters as MvC2.

Think about it, what if the entire Melee cast was in+the already announced characters. Sure, that would leave quite a few hidden characters, but considering the high point this game has already hit, I wouldn't be surprised.

Marth+Roy+Ike+someone from RD. Sounds decent enough.
 
If Lyn didn't get in as a female FE representative, I (unfortunately) don't really see anyone else making it except possibly Micaiah. Mia woud be a real dark horse just because she was mentioned so frequently in that one poll, but she's seriously not an FE headliner sort of character...

How many times must I tell you? Your weapons will have no effect on me
Well, that's kinda obvious: there's nothing there to hurt.
 
Smash Brothers melee made it to the top 4 of 10 in best fighting games at screwattack......I guess Smash really is a fighter. Never thought of it as a fighter myself though.

The game has a lot more depth than many people think. I don't even like a lot of the tournament "moves" but if you play Smash on a regular basis you'll see that it is deep enough to be considered a fighter, albiet an unconventional one.

I don't know a damn thing about FE but I know Micaiah is a cute mage chick so that's kind've an auto-win in my book.

if it isn't a fighter... what is it?

THIS is fluid animation. Path of Radiance is not fluid animation. The Game Boy Advance has better animation than the Gamecube.

weeps softly

Give them time, PoR was their first go at a full 3D game. RD already has improved animations over PoR anyways.

She is probably one of the most wanted females now. She would be a cool little suprise. Sakurai, just make her fast as hell and nothing like Zelda. :D
