"About Smash Bros. Brawl...now, we already have Zelda, Snake, Mario in our game, but we're looking to pursue..."


"Master Chief?!"

E3 2006: Fans Asked to Fill Smash Bros. Roster.
Nintendo of Japan launches online survey.
by IGN Staff

May 10, 2006 - Right along with the recently unveiled Smash Bros. Brawl trailer, a consumer survey of sorts went up on Nintendo of Japan's website. The poll is designed to give gamers a chance to help build the next chapter in one of the most anticipated franchises in Nintendo's arsenal. After clicking the bottom link on the opening page, a submission form is brought up, allowing fans to write in desired characters or music themes.

We can only imagine what kind of buzz this will cause for the gaming community overseas, as Nintendo has literally opened its mail box for suggestions. While it is only available to Japanese fans, we'll continue to hold our breath for Nintendo of America to release a similar poll here.

You can see the Japanese site by clicking right here.

Keep checking back at IGN Wii as more develops. We'll be sure to link you to the American version if and when Nintendo makes it available.

Ug, I bet they completely neglect North America for this. Good old Nintendo.

This is what I wrote

I am a huge Smash Bros. fan, and furthurmore a huge Nintendo fan. Smash Bros. 3 just became my number one most anticipated title until its release. Here are some cool ideas if you are taking them:

-Super Mario Bros. 3 airship as a playable level.
-An item can be Lakitu's cloud or Bowser's flying circus cart thing on propellers.
-Sonic and Tails as playable characters.
-8 Bit versions of the popular characters in the game (Mario, Link, etc.)
-Playable character: Ash Ketchum/Misty/Brock?

Thanks for taking my ideas into consideration, and I look forward to learning more about this game as information is revealed.

-Aaron

[tapedeck]

[soundwave05]

Vote for Captain N! Make it happen people!

I don't think the designers in Japan are even aware of who Captain N is :lol

I would like to see

Little Mac
Megaman
Simon Belmont
Sonic
Cloud
Sephiroth
Ryu
Ken
Pac-Man

Make it.

I'm guessing Animal Crossing character(s) may be a lock.

 

[Tornado Condor]

Everyone vote for the head of dr kawashima.

*votes*

 

[ThirstyFly]

I don't think the designers in Japan are even aware of who Captain N is

ニックネーム

[soundwave05]

I'd like to see a pair of Street Fighter 2 characters in ... that franchise sorta has a special place in the hearts of many Nintendo fans, I think it would be fitting.

 

[jamesinclair]

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD

Nintendo has taken E3 by a mile!

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

whats with mario and kirby cooking midway through the begining part of the movie.


And what the fk.. if they showed this at the conference.. the roof would have exploded in the kodak theatre.. MAN I WANT TO SEE A CROWDS FIRST REACTION TO THIS T__T

 

[el jacko]

Hahah, I just spent ten minutes writing in Japanese asking for Dr. Kawashima.

Let's hope they listen!

 

[Jiggy]

I think that's Kirby's super move when he picks up that Smash Bros. logo item.
Cook has been one of Kirby's kill-everything-on-screen one-use-only powers throughout the series. The others are Crash, which is boring because it just blows up the whole screen, and this microphone one that I forget the name of which is... interesting, but not as Kirby-ish as Cook.

 

[Error]

that place where this game was revealed must've gone nuts when they saw this trailer.

 

[Greenpanda]

Yay for Wario and Pit!

And ... OMGWTFBBQ SNAKE

 

[soundwave05]

Honestly though I'd want Mr. Yamauchi.

That would kick so much ass.

Wasn't Nintendo joking around that they might put Mr. Miyamoto and Mr. Yamauchi in the GC or N64 versions?

 

[..pakbeka..]

LET'S SPAM THOSE BASTARDS WITH REQUESTS FOR SEGATA SANSHIRO



it's せがた三四郎 in case anyone wants to join me in my quest

"fatality"

 

[hoverboarder]

Do you guys like the suffix "Brawl?" I think Melee sounded more epic and mature.

Maybe that' just me?

The game looks fucking amazing otherwise though.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

"fatality"

:lol

 

[sloppyjocro]

Well.. I just read almost thirteen-hundred posts. Not sure how I feel about that, but I do now know that I can maintain a Nintendo-induced erection for approximately three hours. Kudos, Wii!

 

[..pakbeka..]

Until your fingers break! Until your fingers break!

 

[psycho_snake]

I just found out about this now becausde i didnt have the chance to use the computer yesterday. This is unbelievable. There is nothing more I could want. I cant believe that Snake is in this game. Seeing snake in Brawl has been one of the greatest E3 momonets for years.

 

[norinrad21]

A man can dream :lol :lol

Since it has the double-meaning of a big party and non-Nintendo characters are in it I think it fits pretty well.

Isn't it just called Mike?

 

[VultureDude]

what type of games are Japanese Nintendo fans likely going to choose? are they like North American Nintendo fans? or are they an entirely different breed?

if they're trustworthy, then we should all just leave this up to them, rather then spam a ton of people reading the responses that likely don't speak engish
