Month of November - Music, Pollyanna (I Believe In You)
Q: Why does she believe the morning sun is always gonna shine again and why does she believe a pot of gold waits at every rainbow's end?
A: Is there anything WRONG with believing in make-believe and fairy tales and lucky charms?

I BELIEVE IN MAKE BELIEVE TOO! *runs off sobbing*

Okay, I know Captain Syrup, but who're the other two? Is Ray 01 a Custom Robo character?

Yes Ray 01 is a custom robo character. Lip is a character in Panel de Pon

 

[flipping_heck]

"100TH UPDATE SURPRISE!

This is how you take a break!








Look at that! Whee!"

 

[GamerSoul]

Yep he's from Custom Robo

I also ran into this.

and Lip

Probably. I mean, his birthday update was Subspace Emissary iirc.

 

[Frozen Fire]

Tonights Update:

Gameplay mode: The Credits.

Spoiler

actually, I hope the credits are fun again...silly little thing, but I liked them

I hope they do! I always loved that no matter how many times I played. I hope they add a new feature like...... ummmm.......eeerrrrrr..... Sakurai think of something!!!! :lol

Spoiler

Maybe Wii controls or special guns or something? Unlockables for high scores?

Be hopeful!

Gamefaqs people says that 25th, 50th and 75th update were characters

25th Samus
50th Ike
75th Diddy Kong

hmm..

 

[grandjedi6]

50th Ike
75th Diddy Kong

hmm..

Having two character updates this close together isn't out of the ordinary

EDIT: Gamefaqs is wrong. Samus is the 25th update if you count double updates but Ike isn't the 50th update if you count double updates

hmm..

If 25th were Pokemon Trainer or something and not Samus I'd be more :O'd.

 

[flipping_heck]

Well, technically, Samus wasn't actually part of the lineup, just her Zero-Suit version... yeah.. im stretching it..

hmm..

25 is indeed Samus, but 50 is Samus' final smash (Ike is 60), and 75 is Subspace Army (Diddy is 76).

 

[grandjedi6]

Still having something for the 100th update isn't too crazy to speculate. However will Sakurai base it on the actual 100th update or the 100th DAY of updates?

Well, teach me not to trust on Gamefaqs again..

 

[Scribble]

We'll get a character this week, either way.

And it's gonna be Lucas.
Yes.
It's finally time.

 

[GamerSoul]

I'm predicting a character or a story update.

 

[Firestorm]

or both

 

[grandjedi6]

I'm predicting that but for Tuesday. Tonight I predict either a character moveset or an item.

or both

We can wish

 

[Scribble]

By predictions, you mean guesses, right XD

 

[AMUSIX]

any chance of another Music Update? That might take a melody...something simple as can be...and give it some words and a sweet harmony?

I think if that were the update, I would like it very much...even moreso than the credits.

 

[Starchasing]

maybe he will do like the simpsons and go for the totally random number anniversary show...

 

[JohnTinker]

I think the Ray 01 would be a pretty neat addition to the game as a playable character

After the epic Smash Bros Theme, I'm looking forward to hearing more music.

I REALLY want to listen to Yuzo Koshiro (Actraiser, Streets of Rage, Shenmue) and Yasunori Mitsuda's (Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Xenogears) songs. They are like, the best game musicians ever!

I wanna hear music tracks from Yuzo Koshiro
Kenji Yamamoto (Super Metroid/Metroid Prime)
Yuka Tsujiyoko(Fire Emblem)
Motoi Sakuraba(Golden Sun) One step closer to Issac

i expect great things from these guys.

 

[KevMurda]

There are already 12 Vets announced on the site.

Might only be 5 more New Comers. Well 4 since we know one is Snake.

 

[Twig]

Reading comprehension is obviously not your strong suit.

Pot calling the kettle black?

Yeesh. You people love to get worked up over nothin', don't you.

We'll get a character this week, either way.

And it's gonna be Lucas.
Yes.
It's finally time.

I sure hope so.

Or Jeff.

 

[Firestorm]

Pot calling the kettle black.

I'm brown you racist.
And don't call me fat.

 

[Haunted]

oh shit, I won't change my prediction

Spoiler

Adventure mode update, believe

, but I just realised that we'll get an Earthbound themed update tomorrow.

I'm brown you racist.
And don't call me fat.

I highlighted expecting to read: "

MARIO KART STAGE

What are you going to do when they DO finally unveil it, and that night you had guessed something else?!

ah, I'll probably shrug it off. no biggie.





OH GOD WHO AM I KIDDING I'LL BREAK DOWN CRYING LIKE A SMALL CHILD

 

[ant1532]

New stage.

 

[-WindYoshi-]

It may be a little farfetched, but i'm willing to bet that tonight we'll be getting a character, stage, item, how to play, game mode or music update. Perhaps even a new notice.

Don't take my word for it, though.

 

[SuperAngelo64]

I'm brown you racist.
And don't call me fat.

I'd say you're more of an orangey.. lizardy...




My prediciton for tonight:


BOSS UPDATE! (You guys forget about those, ah?!)

 

[MrCheez]

OH GOD WHO AM I KIDDING I'LL BREAK DOWN CRYING LIKE A SMALL CHILD

:lol

Or watch, instead of the Mario Kart Stage being a stage, it will be an.... ASSIST TROPHY!! (dun dun dun)

JUST LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO LYN

 

[LegendofJoe]

Today is respect for the aged day in Japan, wonder if they'll still have an update b/c most ppl here are off work.

 

[MrCheez]

OK guys, I still think Tom Nook has a 90% chance of being in the game. (And he will be awesome! He could throw apples, hit you with a shovel, etc)

BUT who would be the best character EVAR to include from Animal Crossing? (C'mon, we KNOW there is going to be an AC character since we got a stage...)

K.K. SLIDER!

I was just thinking today about how awesome he would be. Imagine a Smash character that fights by hitting people with a guitar! :O So awesome.

Of course his chances are super slim since he appears on the Smashville stage as a special event on Saturday... but I was thinking... what if witnessing that special event is the way you unlock him?? It would be awesome because then no one would be able to unlock him until a week after the game came out. :lol (Well, unless they change the Wii's clock )

They could so easily make it so that if someone is playing as K.K. Slider on Saturday, the event doesn't happen...

Would be so great! Of course it won't happen, but it's fun to dream.

Oh, also check this out:

[grandjedi6]

That picture is pretty sweet, the damage to the guitar is not though

 

[AMUSIX]

Why don't people suggest Cappy as the Animal Crossing playable character? He's a freaking sailor...and a cabbie...of course he'd know how to handle himself in a tussle.

Plus, he's got his own theme music.

 

[SuperAndroid17]

slippy as a playable character.

Spoiler

That would really suck

:lol

 

[Davidion]

OH GOD WHO AM I KIDDING I'LL BREAK DOWN CRYING LIKE A SMALL CHILD

Sigh, let's not get all overzealous, we're all adults here

Spoiler

who just happens to enjoy screaming like little girls at video game announcements.

But really, I think we're overreacting a bit here. Calm tempers out to prevail

Spoiler

until I see the full roster of 50+ combatants in this game and proceed to soil my trousers.

 

[Oblivion]

Just thought I'd ask, but anyone else think the interface looks extremely shitty (well, at least in comparison to melee)?

 

[Jiggy]

Since tomorrow's the 100th update, today's will be fairly mundane. We haven't had an item since August 27th, so my prediction tonight will be...

...the blue shell from Mario Kart. Yeah, let's go with that. Targets whoever has the highest score, the most lives left, etc., but has a large explosion radius. The red shell and green shell will also be confirmed in a roundabout way by being in the screenshots.



Edit: Wait, I take it back. We only haven't had an item since then if I'm not counting assist trophies or Poke Balls. However, we haven't had a Smash 101 or techniques update since August 30th, so I'll predict... an explanation of the crawling mechanic.

 

[MrCheez]

Just thought I'd ask, but anyone else think the interface looks extremely shitty (well, at least in comparison to melee)?

I do like that its white rather than black... but so far, yes, I think it looks a little too simple and bland. I think it might be too early to judge, though.

For some reason seeing the character select screen is my most anticipated update, even if it contains no roster surprises. I just want to see what its going to look like... Hope it looks nice -- think about how much time in the future you will spend looking at this screen. :lol

I'm going to be so disappointed now if that Lip Kirby isn't in. As if not having Lyn Kirby wasn't bad enough.
Come to think of it, I wonder if even a Panel de Pon character being in SSBB would convince Amir0x to play as someone other than Ness or Lucas.
