I'm still praying for...

Don't let me down Nintendo!

WILSON PUNCH!

 

[BGBW]

WILSON PUNCH!

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIILSOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!

 

[Furoba]

Now you mention it, an Electroplankton stage would be awesome. Creating music by hopping from platform to platform, colliding with planktons, etc.

Spoiler

Might get annoying after a while, but WHATEVER.

Imagine having the audio recording fish in a stage. Recording character's death voices and mixing those tunes would be pure awesomeness.

Tututu ... tututu... tututu... UUUAAAAAA!

 

[Crab Milk Mickey]

DR. ****ING KAWASHIMA

Then I'm sold.

He, combined with the Hands, should be the end boss. Cackling Dr. Kawashima = best boss EVER.

 

[Ramenman]

Don't be silly.Bug nets aren't violence. They are funny play-around with your happy neighbours who you deeply love because they make even happier your happy life in the happy world of Animal Crossing.

Spoiler

And Tom Nook is lame

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIILSOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!

It's MONDAY, my friend. MONDAY. And smack dab in the middle of a huge Nintendo media event that's supposed to take place next week.

 

[Ramenman]

Well, so :

Edit : Wow, that means the site will be online at Monday at 5 PM for me, I'm quite happy I'm not being screwed by the time zones

 

[JDSN]

Monday at 10:00 Am for me then.

 

[Ashodin]

First Starcraft 2, and in 2 days.. MEGATON DROP AGAIN

 

[JDSN]

What if Kerrigan is one of the new characters? :lol

 

[Haunted]

Well, so :

*high-fives* Glad you're holding the tradition up.

Returned characters

Solid Snake
Metaknight
Pit

Semi-confirmed

Yoshi(He has a stage but hasn't been shown yet.)

-------

Sakurai said all the characters from Melee (26) won't be in Brawl probably. He also said he's not putting any Manga characters in. So don't think you're going to be playing as Goku.

He also stated that the third party characters that will be in the game(which he said he was thinking how many he should try and get in. His quote went something like this
"maybe 3 more?" The characters would have to appear on a Nintendo console in the past also.

 

[Baron Doggystyle von Woof]

so many characters yet to be revealed..

 

[ant1532]

Yep the main thing I want as for characters would just be Links ability to change into a fox.

 

[dkeane]

Agatha from Zelda: TP would be a nice surprise. She's such a cool character but probably (definitely) won't make it in.

2 DAYS!!!!

 

[NotWii]

Playing as a wolf sucked in TP, it would REALLY suck in SSBB.
I'll switch to another character if it happens.

 

[donkey show]

Andross and Kawashima tag-team bosses in the end. That would rock.

 

[ant1532]

If you think he would just have one move like in TP then you think more of Sakurai's team.

 

[Ikael]

That's a big departure from his initial position. If I don't remember it bad, Sakurai used to be adamantly against the inclusion of third party characters.

 

[MasterMFauli]

If you think he would just have one move like in TP then you think more of Sakurai's team.

If anything, Link would lose one attack because of the transformation down+B >_<
Transformation suck, i want the full possible move-set for every character.
But why not make Midna a character combinde with Wolf-Link? This way Midna would have her appearance in the game AND we´d have a Wolf-Link with all his attacks.

 

[ant1532]

Um, lose one attack and gain hella more. It's 2 character move sets in one.

 

[WastingPenguins]

Yeah. The Zelda/Sheik transformation was kind of one-sided because, well... Zelda sucks. A lot.

Also, this "Sakurai said there would be three more third party characters!" stuff is total BS. The true quote hinted that there MIGHT be 1 or 2 more. Basically, there is no real confirmation that there will be any more 3rd party characters, and there DEFINITELY won't be 3 more.

After reading this I get the feeling we might get a Snake clone (literally :lol ) and that would be the other 3rd party character.

 

[WastingPenguins]

Yeah. I'm guessing there will be 1 more, and that would likely be Sonic. Based on the actual evidence (i.e. true quotes and not the BS rumors that spread like wildfire), I'd be pretty shocked to see more than that.

But who knows! Two more days!

 

[MasterMFauli]

No, that way you have 2 charaters wih each one missing 1 attack. And transformation-time can decide a match, if you´re playing against a strong enemy. I just want unique full-flegded characters, not combinations. How about Yoshi transforming into another color-Yoshi thus gaining new abilites? No, please not.

But hey, it might beat Zelda for best down+B move in the game. Or beat Sheik for one of the worst down+B moves...

Eh, it doesn't really bother me because a LOT of characters have utterly useless attacks. Take Ganondorf's warlock punch or his up-tilt (the one where he raises one leg real high for a minute and then slams it down)... both completely useless, except maybe against a sleeping Jigglypuff. So Sheik/Zelda "missing" an attack is fine by me.

 

[ant1532]

I never said that Sakurai said "There will be 3 more third party characters"...

I said

His quote went something like this
"maybe 3 more?"

based on memory.

Here is the direct quote

"Anyways, at most we'll add another 1-2 characters [after Snake], maybe?"

and there DEFINITELY won't be 3 more.

And why do you act like he thinks like a robot and can't change his mind? Developers are ALWAYS changing their minds and doing things differently from what they said they will do. And Sakurai didn't even say it in a sure tone.

 

[BrodiemanTTR]

Oh god, two whole more days. Let's all stop arguing and just hug.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

I was hoping there'd be at least 4 third-party characters. I want Snake (obviously), Sonic, Kefka (my god that would rock), and Megaman.

 

[WastingPenguins]

ant1532: I wasn't talking specifically to you. There have been a bunch of posts in this thread with people saying, "Yeah, Sakurai said he was going to put three more in!!! So I want Pacman, Cloud, James Pond..." etc. I'm just saying nothing is confirmed.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Zero Suit Samus (not confirmed if she's a transformation of Samus yet)

I'm almost positive this was confirmed on the website before it went kaput.

Something like "Under certain conditions, Samus will lose her armor and become Zero Suit Samus."

Sure, that could mean "Under certain conditions you unlock her," but it seems to me it's more of a transformation, perhaps an involuntary one.

It did say something along those lines, but as you pointed out... "under certain conditions" could be interpreted in any number of ways. It's far, far from confirmed either way.

Ahh ok, I was going to say... Well I did lol.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

True enough. The reason I personally feel it's a transformation is because way too many of Samus' moves are Sheik's. The whip, the needler-style gun, even her hand-to-hand combat is similar, judging by the last trailer. I think they'll use Twilight Princess Zelda and make Samus the transformer.

 

[Somnid]

From the trailer it would seem Samus becomes Zero-Suit Samus once her super attack finishes.

I hope Midna (true form) will make it in. I doubt it, though...

 

[Dolphin]

I wonder if the reason we haven't seen some of the characters is because they're starring in new games, and SSBB uses the character models from those respective games. Like Yoshi.

 

[Kevtones]

an EXCITE TRUCK needs to be one of the new characters

 

[Haunted]

:lol


I'm sure it'll be a trophy though (are trophies even confirmed for the game?)

 

[Visualante]

Can someone explain to me why Smash Bros. can work online but Virtua Fighter 5 can not?

Also they really need to confirm control methods.. GameCube controls were confirmed.. are they going to re-release the WaveBird to work with Bluetooth or are they going to just manafacture more controllers?

Will there be a bundle with the game? Classic controller support seems a bit dodgy. It's a game where rumble is nice.

 

[Kafel]

It could appear like a Nintendog and drive on one or many characters targeted.

Either re-release it, or release it in a slimmer form for the Wii.

I'm betting they're going to package a Classic Controller with every copy of the game. Would be the best idea.

 

[MasterMFauli]

Well, how about Midna´s shadow mask form :lol
10 times as big as any other character ^^

 

[laserbeam]

Imp midna would be a pretty cool character to include. use the helmet for the pickup and throw move etc

No...you are right...it was stated it was a transformation on the site. You don't pick Zero suit as zero suit.

I think many of you are mistaken.

Sakurai said that the main mode of the game won't use the specifities of the wiimote. But of course we will be able to play with the cross and buttons of the wiimote/nunchuk, without doing any movement or pointing.

And it will be possible to play with a GC controller and most likely the classic controller.
