As loathe as I am to agree with Suburban Cowboy, he may have a point. Galaxy was in development for quite some time and we know Sakurai has no compunctions about using material from unfinished games in Smash. (See: Roy) The Galaxy and Brawl teams can't be that far apart, and they've had a very wide window of opportunity in which the Galaxy team could have given assets for Brawl.

 

[Insaniac]

I'd like to point out that Metroid Prime 3, there is a Super Mario Galaxy bumper sticker for Samus' ship. And Prime came out before galaxy.

 

[Jiggy]

I thought Prime 3's bumper stickers came from whatever pictures were used for the save data in the Wii menu...

 

[flipping_heck]

Just imagine it now, its almost Dec 3rd, we should be salviating the thought of playing this game in just a few days time.. man, with November being a totaly letdown in terms of megaton updates (and characters), December 3rd update is going to be something very very special!! A new character reveal + announcement on an apology for delay or something else!

Ugh. Don't remind me. I thought of that every few hours at work this week. It did not make the day go better, but the humor at how awesomely bad the updates could get did, so it was kind of a toss up.

Dec 3, demo + video blowout

[crowphoenix]

On december 3rd, we will get a pokeball, Lucario to our dismay.

 

[Jiggy]

Clearly December 3rd is set to bring us:

-Lucario, Mewtwo, and Jigglypuff in Poke Balls
-Ness, Falco, Sheik, and Young Link as assist trophies
-Cream the Rabbit as the most common trophy and sticker in the game
-Confirmation that there's no playable Animal Crossing character
-An announcement that there are no more third-party characters in Brawl
-Playable Pichu and Krystal

Switch those around and I wouldn't care.

 

[Insaniac]

there's too much Krystal hate in this thread

 

[Dina]

Switch those around and I wouldn't care.

Falco is pretty generic as well. Just Fox from the Starfox series will do, actually.

 

[Dice]

No matter if you are a big fan or not, Star Fox is a less signifiant series and the characters have little variety. There is no reason to have more than Fox.

Or, you know, they could keep them and make them different. But, I am a fan, so...

No, Jiggy, no!

Megatron Prediction Dec. 3rd:

I could see Sakurai doing this one:

Cure to Death

Smash will feature something never seen before!

As long as you play smash, you can never die!

Doesn't that mean you could play this game.....FOREVER...

MUAHHHAHAHAHA!

Megaton confirmed?

Spoiler

The only bigger megaton would be the return of Ness...

 

[Jiggy]

The irony was meant to be that Pichu came back while Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, Ness, Falco, Sheik, and Young Link went away. I suppose I should have expected that a few people liked Pichu. >_>


Edit: For a serious megaton prediction (but not for December 3rd--I'll predict that tomorrow), maybe some day will bring the news that Super Smash Bros. Brawl will come bundled with 2000 Wii Points so that players can experience these characters in their own dedicated games.

 

[Linkhero1]

Doesn't matter, has to be Falco. I will cry if he's replaced. :'(

It would be funny if the update is just Sakurai telling us the game was supposed to come out on Dec. 3rd and has been delayed till February. He's going to poke fun.

Spoiler

I believe in Decemberton 3rd

 

[Jiggy]

In terms of personality, I think Fox is far more generic than Falco. Falco, at least, plays the role of the cynical and sarcastic, but ultimately reliable wingman, where Fox is just a bog standard well-intentioned and optimistic hero destined for greatness.

I'm hoping Monday's MEGATON update is:

Yeah that's actually true. Falco's badass

 

[KevinCow]

I've always hated Falco. What a douche.

"HELP FOX SAVE ME BECAUSE I'M A WORTHLESS ASSHOLE AND CAN'T FEND FOR MYSELF!!!!"

You save him:

"What the fuck is your problem? Mind your own business!"

You don't save him:

"What the fuck is your problem? Why didn't you save me?"

I always shot him instead of the dude following him. Same with Slippy. Peppy was alright though, I usually saved him.

 

[rollingstart]

im starting to think that there will be no more third party characters announced anymore, and I doubt they would be hidden either because Third Party characters can only add to the appeal.

also, while Mike Jones deserves to be in Smash, I doubt he would ever be announced on the website and would be left as a hidden character also.

the hidden characters are going to be so interesting to see when Smash finally comes out, its just too bad they will all be announced/leaked/spoiled by those picking up the game in Japan.

 

[Emotions]

are Captain Falco and Ganondorf selectable characters?

 

[Crushed]

:| Last I checked Fox was the one who needed the saving in SF:A

 

[Keru_Shiri]

I'm thinking that any remaining third party characters are going to be a.) hidden and b.) relatively obscure. I'm also anxious to see what the unlockables will be, since melee's were so cool, Brawl is bound to have somebody awesome waiting.

If you saved him he said:

"well I guess I should thank you"

BUT HE NEVER THANKS YOU! WHAT A BADASS!

Hell Yeah!

 

[Iam Canadian]

He's like Han Solo, he comes to respect Fox in the end.

After defeating Andross (on the hard route) he says "That's our leader!" Of course, subsequent Star Fox games negated that and all other character development in SF64.

 

[Sciz]

Hopefully we'll get a Sonic tune soon...something retro, like a Green Hill remix would be sweet.

Because the dozen other times Sega has resurrected GHZ in the past seven years clearly haven't been enough.

Pick a different zone Sakurai, please.

December 3rd Megaton:
"I was just playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl when I realized today way the day that it was supposed to be released in North America!

Wow. It would have been quite a day wouldn't it? Well, in mourning, I think we should have no update.

W-what's that? A demo you say? Of course there's a demo.
For me. I'm going to back and play the game now, I hope you all enjoy it on February 10th!"

I'd want the Wing Fortress. You'd start the fight on the back of the and then do a quick free fall to the flying battleship. It'd be awesome.

I agree. Let's have Casino Night Zone or Flying Battery Zone. Death Egg would be nice, too.

Does "it" refer to the demo? Um, yes. Actually, Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been delayed again. I apologize, but I hope you'll understand. Please enjoy the demo, available on Wii Ware on February 10th for 1500 Wii Points.

There we go.

If he did that everyone would curse at him in protest for a few days knowing full well they're going to buy the game anyway. =o

 

[Man God]

The only chance I'd give to a demo is a pack in with February's Nintendo Power. Honestly, I don't see it happening.

 

[Jiggy]

I was actually surprised that Brawl preorders started without any bonus at all, whether a demo disc or whatever else... The Zelda series consistently gets pretty cool bonuses, Brain Age 2 had its stylus set, and even Galaxy, which needed less help selling than Zelda and BA2, at least had a coin. But then, I suppose Brawl needs even less help selling than Galaxy, so maybe it works out.


Edit: Still, I do find it strange. >_> Even Metroid Prime 3 had the two weeks of VC leading up to it, and Wii Play of course is bundled with a controller. But nothing for Brawl? Hmm.
