Why must we keep having to go back to Delfino? That was soooo last gen.
Nice update! I'm disappointed that there is no mention of downloadable events or online leader boards or video sharing like with "Smash the Targets". Certainly not a dis-confirmation but you'd think he'd mention here if at any time. Of note is that the Dark Link Match has both players at 200 HP. Does that mean starting HP can be changed from 150 in Stamina Versus Mode? (I would assume it would be but I think this is an argument in favor of that).
-The second-to-last day of Novembust brings us something that's... not a bust! The triumphant return of Events marks the 19th game mode, bringing game modes back in the lead for second-most-common update type.
-Incidentally, there have been three game mode updates this week: Controls, 16:9, and Events. Do you dare predict one for Friday? Decide as you will.
-40 days (and 40 nights) of updates before the Japanese release date. If you feel like you're wandering lost in a desert until you can get your Brawl on, you're not alone.
-Just one more day and we'll have gone a full month without a character profile or a Poke Ball.
-25 days with no character and 31 with no Poke Ball, but actually, as a tangent, neither of those are records: we went for 35 glorious days of no normal items between the Golden Hammer and Items from Previous Installments.

Yes, I know it was 40 years.

Unless they're the masterminds of the Subspace Emissary (which is possible, though I'm doubting that this is the case), I think the Hands will stick to Classic mode (where at least Master Hand will be the end boss) and maybe a token event.
Perhaps even more noteworthy, the Link/Dark Link event is a stamina match but they're at 200 HP, which wasn't possible in Melee... And we also saw the old 150 HP standard in the Special Brawl update. I hope full health customization is allowed in that match type, seeing as it could have been pretty excellent with that feature.DaMainman said:

I prefer to think of it as Smash Lent; forty days and forty nights of sacrifice and purification before the glory that is the second...er, third coming of Smash.

Dreavus said:Cool! I was waiting for a confirmation on this.
That Meta Knight scenario is awesome. It's just like Kirby Super Star!
Ah, the memories. I remember how absurd it was how Team Meta Knight still tried to kill Kirby even after the Halberd was destroyed.
Now I get to re-enact Revenge of Meta Knight from the other side.

Great update, I was worried events could be gone, but alas Sakurai comes through again
Rockin' update! Event mode's comeback looks slick
I still stand by the belief that all characters revealed on the Dojo prior to the Japanese release are starters with the probable exception of the 3rd party characters (Sakurai said they would be unlockable but that was a long time ago now, and things change... especially when 3rd party contracts are involved)

I'm liking this update. Event matches were my favorite part of Melee's single player game. I hope this game has tons more.
Edit:
Ugh. Man, the premise of that movie was totally ridiculous.

But, but, the difficulty selection mechanism we've been presented is clearly of the button persuasion, rather than a slider device.

All of them stayed to fight Kirby except the bird captain, I think. (He evacuates the minute Meta Knight offers.) The four guys who fight Kirby flee after you defeat them one last time. I actually think the Waddle Dee went down with the ship; he stays to watch the fight between Kirby and Meta Knight and we only see one entity abandoning the Halberd in the ending sequence - Meta Knight.
Truly Waddle Dees are bastions of courage and fortitude.

I got used to Bowser's more cartoony look (colorful and big eyes) in SMG. SSBB Bowser looks a little strange to me now.
I like both though.

I think the slightly more muted colour scheme on Brawl Bowser fits with the style of the game, though I wish the flame effects were as bright and vibrant as his fire in Galaxy.

Don't forget to throw his weirdo Melee-look into the comparison:
I'm really happy with how he looks in Brawl. In Melee they went too far with the monstrous/realistic look... Brawl is a nice medium between realistic and cartoony.
OH also (SUPER MARIO GALAXY END GAME SPOILER >>>)
Your SMG screenshot of Bowser... does that ever happen in the game? I don't remember him ever breathing a stream of fire (instead of fireballs) or ever having any part of the Bowser fights taking place on the top of the castle.. Thats a shame if they cut that out

Melee took Bowser too far away from his standard design. I like how Sakurai is pulling out no stops when it comes to Giga Bowser in Brawl, though; that thing has a pretty terrifying appearance. He looks downright scary.

It really has hasn't it? Maybe this is Sakurai's plan... to whittle us down with lame updates, to make us appreciate the more humble posts; the ones that aren't quite megatons.

I think SM64 Bowser is the strangest design.
Yeah. I think Bowser's apperance has improved greatly, especially in SMG and Brawl, and Giga Bowser is freaking cool. This is a good gen to be a Bowser fan.

It would be awesome if we could design our own events. Hey, Sakurai gave us user-designed stages, I think he can give us user-designed events, too.

I kind of like Bowser's silly portrayal in the Paper Mario games. It's not something I'd want to see carried over to the mainstream Mario games, but it fits the niche of Paper Mario.
Sunshine Bowser was pretty terrible, though. The voice was a big part of it.

*rubs chin* Too true, too true. Difficulty Sliders update is hereby back on the market!
MrCheez said:I agree about Bowser in Paper Mario... 'Dumbass Bowser' was awesome. :lol
Also, when I read that quote I can hear the awfulness in my head.
I absolutely love how clueless Bowser is in the Paper Mario games. I actually miss that portrayal in SMG :lol

I actually prefer Bowsers SSBB version over the SMG version. That was a little to colorful.

I actually prefer everyone's SSBB version of their respective game's version.
