Thanks for post this info. I get blocked while at work and my internet is down until this September at home.

So I'm officially back, and will continue to update this thread. Thanks for tuning in.

Anyone else a little annoyed that they keep posting the REALLY obvious character choices? I mean, everyone pretty much knew that DK, Yoshi, and Bowser were going to return...

Suspense. Ninty wouldn't be bland!

Yer that really brings my p*ss to a boil :evil: :twisted:

come on now.

Ike is a NEW CHALLENGER!

www.smashbros.com

I guess I spoke too soon.

http://www.beyondbooks.com/ush12/images/00012268.jpg

Ike wil probably be my third character of choice, after Pit and Link.

Ike

I am so very happy with the August 1, 2007 update! Gooo Ike!
P.S. He will most likely be my most used character in the game. He is my favorite character from my favorite game, el hinto to why he would be my main huh?

Just speculating, but I think that the really BIG announcement come at the beginning of the month (starting with July, I don't think Delfino Plaza stage on June 1st was that big of an announcement. :wink: ).

In July, it was assist trophies and now for August it's Ike. I just hope that we won't have to wait another month for the next new character...

I'm just assuming the next confirmed newbie will be Diddy Kong or Krystal. Just going with Sakurai's interest and the japanese gamers' most suggested.

They'd have to evenutally. Besides, this lets us see their new looks. ;D

It's also nice to know that they will definately return

Also, it means the can save the big, unexpected, announcements for close to release. That way people will be excited by the announcement and then rush to the shop in a matter of weeks, rather than stewing over it for months and deciding that it's not worth the wait.

These updates really are driving me mental...

Doesn't anyone else think it's stupid that Nintendo are making us scavenge for info about a game we're spending our money on?

I checked the updates for about 2 days, then I just couldn't be bothered. Whatever I hear I hear, whatever I don't, I'll find out when I buy it.

I feel that way too. But I've saved it as a bookmark and I cant resist the temptation to check the site on a daily basis.. haha

I'm a little disappointed that there are still no real details about Meta Knight... :(

I may be a little OT, but it feels so lame to open a new thread for a silly post like this one.

Well, the fact is that I never got into Smash Bros. and all of my friends make fun of me when we play: I'm generally watching the wrong part of the screen, and my character is being rudely pwned in another place of the gamefield.
But it's a great game, I always loved it, even if I was far from being an average player.

So during this weekend I asked a friend of mine to lend me Melee to train myself and being something more than a sparring partner when Brawl is released.
Of course I'm enjoying it a lot, and I'm finally understanding the moves, the times, and all the game mechanics.

Ok, it was just to say: watch out for a new challenger (me), hope I'll be good enough for taunting all of you in Brawl.
Happy waiting, I still have ALL Melee to have fun with (...he, he, bad guy I am...)

Have you guys seen the new challenger? 'Pokemon Trainer'.

And I thought all the Brawl characters would be unique. *sighs*

Yeah. At first I was a little *.* but then I got into the idea. My second main most likely.

I actually really like this post. I'm blocked at work and my internet is down at home so I rely on what I hear here. I think the Pokemon Trainer would be cool if his special moves are throwing out pokemon for help.

Pokémon Trainer
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/images/spacer.gif http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/images/spacer.gifhttp://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer.jpgNo way! The Pokémon Trainer has finally arrived. And it looks like he doesn’t do his fighting directly.
Instead, he uses the three Pokémon with him—Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard—to do the fighting for him.

Thank you very much! I'm even more pumped for this game. I can't wait to give the trainer a try.

And here are the several other pics I have not posted here yet:

POKEMON CHANGE!
The Pokémon Trainer watches froThe Pokémon Trainer watches from the background.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070813e-l.jpg
He needs to use his three Pokémon to fight. So the only ones who fight directly are the Pokémon.
I guess you could say using this character is like playing three for the price of one!
And the Pokémon Trainer uses a special move called Pokémon Change to switch between them.


<Down Special Move: Pokémon Change>
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070813f-l.jpg
Good job, Ivysaur! Come back!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070813g-l.jpg
The returning Pokémon tags the next Pokémon.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070813h-l.jpg
Charizard, I choose you!

They swap out in a set order: Squirtle→Ivysaur→Charizard.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070813i.jpg
They all share the same damage meter, so they don’t recover from damage during Pokémon Change. But they also have another stat, which you might call stamina.
If you keep fighting with the same Pokémon, or if you change them out too often, it’s not so good for the Pokémon.
If you want to be a good Pokémon Trainer, you’ll need to learn these kinds of ins and outs.

Surely the Trainer should be able to have some kind of effect on Pikachu?

God all of this is driving me nuts!!! I dont know what to belive or not, I think I will just have to wait for launch to find out about the game.

This has been THE WORST UPDATE WEEK EVER on the Dojo in my opinion. Have you seen the latest?

"I’d like to introduce a new collection element to the game—stickers.
Yes, the ones you slap on your notebook or skateboard or whatever. Stickers.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various03/various03_070815a.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various03/various03_070815a-l.jpg)
This...is a sticker.
Stickers are easier to get a hold of than trophies. Just play the game and you’ll start to earn them as rewards.

Stickers get filed away in your album.
There are big ones and small ones, all with different kinds of artwork. There’s a ton of variety."

There you have it. Sakurai thinks all smashers are babies.

i'm gonna be the first with a complete sticker album! :D

I like the look of the stickers, kinda like the trophies except you can play about with them and create stuff

this has been a great week so far IMO, an awesome new character, a new assist trophy and a new game mode added, none of the "here's one special move of one of the characters" we tend to get

i hope they just reveal metaknight, snake, peach and that mario kart looking track soon, then it will be all new after that

Post whatever you hope is in SSBB.

Me, well...


Crono

http://www.opcoder.com/projects/chrono/Crono0.jpg

He would be perfect for SSBB. A great swordsman.

Final Smash: Luminaire

http://www.opcoder.com/projects/chrono/MagusLair2.jpg

Who do you guys want?

I'm crossing my fingers for Ridley from Metroid and Simon Belmont from Castlevania. Of course, 3rd party characters like Simon are not very likely, but this is wishful thinking after all!

Those Chrono picks you posted look like that independant fan project when some people were trying to remake Chrono Trigger in 3d. They did a fantastic job before they got the **** beat out of their project by various companies. I would like to see Poo from Earthbound/Mother 2.

There's a good chance of 3rd Party characters coming.

Even if they're not annoucned yet,
Sonic, Bomberman and Mega Man are most likely to join.

I hope for a second MOTHER character.
Just to have more Earthbound stuff (arenas and music) in SSBB.
Additional, more people get to know this series,
and it increases the chance that Nintendo eventually translates MOTHER3 at last.

The new one should be Flint http://walkthrough.starmen.net/mother3/image/characters/flint.png from MOTHER3. Yes, a cowboy is what's missing in Smash Bros :D


http://starmen.net/eb64/images/manor.jpg



http://files.fobby.net/0000/27fe/flint_port_oz02.png

I'm kind of hoping "Mii" will be a character, when you select it, you get to pick one of the Miis you made.

I want to beat up Mario...with myself!

Captain Olimar, Diddy Kong and Sonic seem likely to me, but for now they'll remain as wishful thinking.

Well What I want is kinda what mad_doggie wants. i wanna use miis but i hope they suck. well no i mean i hope you can make your own character like a mii. but at first they suck so the more you fight with them the stronger they get. and if you play the games lots you get points witch you can use to upgrade your Mii.

3rd parties that are deep in touch with Nintendo
Would be great if everyone of them is sending one of their mascots into the fight.

Konami : Solid Snake (confirmed)
Sega: Sonic (strong rumor)
Hudson: Bomberman (strong rumor)
Capcom: Megaman (strong rumor) or even Ryu from Street Fighter! lol
Namco: Pacman maybe ;) Or Mitsurugi from Soul Calibur :D

Oh yes, I'd also like to see Little Mac from Punch-Out!!

Even though there's less than a 1% chance, I think Bonk would be a fantastic character to include. His headbutting would be a great attack, and hid Final Smash/Special Move could be where he becomes invincible and/or gains improved attack when he obtains those little hunks of meat. And graphically improved Bonk would look great too, even though there's no chance... :(:(

Also I'd really like Sonic to be included, that would be really cool.

Yes those pictures were from Chrono Ressurection... too bad it was cancelled.

Simon Belmont is an incredible idea.

I'm still hoping that they'll announce Sonic as a playable character just before release. I also like the idea of importing your Mii as a character.

Miis are a great idea. That way, if someone whines about some impossible character not being in Brawl, they can always make that character.

Sonic & Knuckles please, not tails. Icecap or hydrocity zone as the levels, the possiblitys are amazing.

I dont think any street fighter characters would be right at all tho.

Toad, and make Luigi less gay.. wtf

I actually like the sound of these stickers, it's just another cool feature that'll be a good method of longevity in the game :)

Diddy Kong fans unite...

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/diddykong/diddykong.jpg

I guess I sopke too soon about Diidy Kong. :)

The five characters I want to see in Brawl the most now are Black Shadow, Captain Olimar, Sonic, Little Mac, and Simon Belmont.

I quite enjoyed that update, actually.

I'm continuing off of what Pit 42 has...

Donkey Kong’s pal has finally joined the battle! Unfortunately, screenshots fail to truly capture the way he moves.

He scrambles around the battle, using whimsical fighting moves while wielding both his Rocketbarrel Boost and Peanut Pop Gun!

Ok, this won't happen. But TC (Topic Creator) said, you can dream/wish right?

Good character and hopefully a lot more to come

This could be way off, but if you look at the music page, and click list of composers, the famed Chrono Trigger composer, Yasunori Mitsuda, is on the list to help with SSBB.

Crono or better yet Frog in SSBB... that's just :lolo:.

Crono would be my new fav :D

Heheh, Ike and PT are a little better in my opinion but, Diddy makes it in my top 5 fave new characters.

Ah yes, good ol Yasunori-san. Although, his involvement with Brawl's music just doesn't cut it for me. I would love for Crono to be in the game but, the chances are against him. Well, lets just hope Will from Illusion of Gaia (Nintendo of America published) makes it! I actually did like Illusion of Gaia better anyway, sorry.

Crono would be cool in Brawl. I never played the game before but hey, whatever keeps unwanted characters out of Brawl.

I'm still hoping for Little Mac.

I would scream like a little girl if any CT character (Crono, Magus, Frog...) was included...

Even just a Chrono stage that, during the fight, occasionally warps you to a different time period.

Hell, even just Chrono Trigger music would be awesome!

Wow! It seems that recently they've been showing 1 new challenger and 1 returner per week. This is promising... someone calculate how many weeks until release so we can find the number of new characters!:D

I saqw somewhere that there was 70 or so weeks until Decemeber 3rd, but I don't think there'll be that many characters.

Now that I think about it, they may not include Chrono simply because he looks a lot like Pit's revamped look.

I've posted this a couple of weeks ago in a couple of different posts but I would love to see Little Mac. I don't want 3rd party characters. I always thought it was great that Nintendo made this game where you can fight using just Nintendo created characters. It's cool when Nintendo uses characters that I really didn't know. For example: Ness, Ice Climbers, and Marth/Roy. I'm not excited to use Solid Snake. We better get an original Wii Metal Gear game out of this deal, and I'm not talking about another port.

If not, there's always The Twin Snakes for GC.

Plus, I'm sure the original Metal Gear game will come to the VC soon, even though it is an NES game.

I saqw somewhere that there was 70 or so weeks until Decemeber 3rd, but I don't think there'll be that many characters.

Maybe 70 week until next December 2008. It's about 14-15 till December. I doubt there will be 30 more characters added to the roster. I wouldn't be surprised if there are only 10 or less characters left to be added.

Err...yeah...I must've ment days. ;)

It's not about looks.

You know there are "clones".. Dr. Mario / Mario - Pichu /Pikachu etc.

and then there's chars, that look close to each other:
Marth / Ike.
Jigglypuff / Kirby
DK / Diddy

and Pit / Crono --- they're different enough.
They just have the same hairstyle and that's all.

Well, I don't have much hopes up for Crono,
but IF Nintendo is gonna make dreams true, this would be the most outstanding secret character.

I support 3rd Party support. ^^

Yes, there should be more of everything. Of course much more Nintendo related characters.

But I like the idea...

With Solid Snake, Goemon, Belmont, Sonic, Megaman, Chun-Li, Crono, Bomberman, Bonk, Pacman and Mitsurugi...

After all, it would be a better and bigger game and more people would like to get it!

But 3rd party characters should always be secret, but that's imo.

If I did support 3rd party characters in this game, I would like to see.

Arthur
Mega Man
Leon S. Kennedy
Belmont
Rayman
Sonic
Aiai
Bomberman/Bonk/Master Higgins

It'd be sweet but probably won't happen. He just composed the music for Chrono Trigger. He didn't create the game or characters. Square owns all the rights to that and they would have to license the character out to Nintendo in order for anyone from the game to make an appearance in Brawl.

I know but each character has their own stage, right?
The only people we know that are working on SSBB are the musicians.
A lot of the people that are on that list compose the music for that stage because they composed the music for that game. And I don't believe he worked on previous Smash Bros. So what else would he compose?
Not Xenogears, that PS1.

Those are really his main and only works.

Wow, Crono would be cool. I have low hopes though. Square prolly owns the rights. Plus I'm not too keen on too many thirdparty chars.

Andross


http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828.jpg
It’s the old enemy of the Star Fox team, Andross! He appears here in his original form, the one with the most impact.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828a-l.jpg
Whoa! He's huge.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828b-l.jpg
He swiftly moves to the back of the screen...

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828c-l.jpg
And begins inhaling...

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828d-l.jpg
Then he spits polygonal panels out of his mouth!

Like a meteor storm, these panels come flying from the back of the scene to the front. Um, what am I supposed to call these things, anyway?

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist06/assist06_070828e-l.jpg
They just keep flying out like crazy!

"Only I have the brains to rule Lylat!"

Uh...OK. He said it, not me...

Four Special Move Types
The actions that really define the personality of each character are special moves! In Brawl, you can do four different moves with just one button and different directional tilts on the Control Stick.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/basic/images/basic05/basic05_070828.jpg
These are the four types. Control for each is quite simple.
<Standard special moves>
Many of these are basic attacks, like the firing of a weapon.
(Normal Special Move: Mach Tornado)
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/basic/images/basic05/basic05_070828a-l.jpg
<Side special moves>
(Side Special Move: Triple Dash)
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/basic/images/basic05/basic05_070828b-l.jpg
These are bold attacks that launch in the direction you tilt the stick.

<Up special moves>
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/basic/images/basic05/basic05_070828c-l.jpg
These are crucial. They’re used to do high jumps and for recovering when you’re falling off the stage.
(Up Special Move: Shuttle Loop)

<Down special moves>
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/basic/images/basic05/basic05_070828d-l.jpg
Many of these do unusual things, like reflect enemy attacks.
(Down Special Move: Dimensional Cape)
Our model was Meta Knight.
To enjoy more of the depth of special moves, try holding the button down longer to charge up attacks, rapidly pressing the button repeatedly, or tilting the Control Stick while doing the moves. You might also want to try them in midair.
Surprisingly, there’s a variety of hidden uses for many of them.

I wonder what them decide to use the older version of Andross instead of his SF64 look...

I'm guessing maybe they're not posting any unlockable characters on the Dojo. It would also explain why we haven't seen any updates with Snake in them.

Well, I find it very far fetched that the Pokemon Trainer would be playable from the start. They would have to seriously nerf Charizard for that. Although, look what happened to Kirby in his SSBM incarnation compared to his god tier SSB one!

The Pokémon Trainer commands three types of Pokémon. His down special move is a Pokémon Change (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/pokemon_trainer.html#pokemon_change), so each Pokémon has three special moves!
That’s nine in all. Amazing!



<Squirtle Up Special Move: Waterfall>

Squirtle splashes up the water torrent.



<Squirtle Side Special Move: Withdraw>

Is this the turtle’s so-called shell? It slides along the ground.



<Ivysaur Standard Special Move: Bullet Seed>

It fires a rapid seed barrage straight up in the air!



<Ivysaur Up Special Move: Vine Whip>

It can grab the edge with its whip! That was TOO close

<Charizard Standard Special Move: Flamethrower>
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070829e.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/pokemon_trainer/pokemon_trainer_070829e-l.jpg)
We just had to have this. It is Charizard, after all.



<Charizard Side Special Move: Rock Smash>

It smashes rocks with its head. Bam! A solid hit from this delivers a mighty blow!!

I'm still not quite sure how this thread is useful given that people can just go to the site but whatever. I betcha sometime in the next week we get a new character. :O what if Starmen from Mother were playable?

I actually really like this post. I'm blocked at work and my internet is down at home so I rely on what I hear here. I think the Pokemon Trainer would be cool if his special moves are throwing out pokemon for help.
Does that answer your question Spore?

P.S. Starmen, I can't see it happening, not for a playable. As for next week's new character, I'm betting its a new Mario or Zelda character...

Thanks again.:D

Me? I'm going to play through classic mode. *murmur-asLinkorIkeprobably-murmur* That's what I have done since SSB, so it's like a tradition.

Thanks again.:D
Haha, no problem. :D

Found this on NSider and decided to post it here and on GameFaqs...

All bosses, CAN be programmed to be playable. Period. Think I am an idiot, well read on...

The thing with bosses, is that bosses are like characters in almost every way. The exception? They are not made playable for a reason. So far, here is what we are sure caused them not to be playable of the three known bosses from games:

Crazy/Master Hand: Self-explanatory. It can fly, and cannot be beaten by normal means (or percentage).

Giga Bowser: Size. If he was resized however, it would be just like Bowser, therefore no point in resizing him.

Petey Pirahna: Moves use the cages, causing some moveset issues. Some size issues too. Also, to our knowledge, Petey may not be defeated by normal means.

HOWEVER, that does not mean they are not playable. It means that you cannot play as them without using the, well, they you-know-what (AR). Using AR, at least in Melee, allowed you to play as each respective boss. This knowledge is pratically telling us that, but applying a script that allows them to be controlled with the controller (which is likely a universal/general script, not a specific one). The point is, even though the method wasn't legal, they could be played via debug menu.

Which brings me to my next point. Don't bother proving that they are a boss in an attempt to prove they are NOT playable. Making a boss into a character is so easy, it takes hardly any development time. It would be better to prove that they can ONLY be a boss, like by adnormal means of defeating it (IE requires stamina). Also, keep in mind what can be changed. Statistics (IE, weight, power, etc.), are well, just that. Statistics. They are very easy to change.

So the problem isn't if they are a boss, but is if they can function as a playable character. If they CAN function as a playable character, Sakurai is missing an incredibly quick and easy method of making a character playable. So, just keep in mind, if a boss can also function as a playable character (don't say that they weigh too much and take barely any recoil or overpowered, or other statistics, they can be changed), they will likely be a playable character. It isn't may not be because they are significant enough or anything, it is because the oppurtunity if avaliable for them.

The best example I could think of is the Black Knight from Path of Radiance. Now, we can pretty much agree he is not significant enough to get in. BUT, if he is made into a boss, his chances rose from near nothing to near-garunteed. Why? He won't be bigger than Bowser obviously, and if weight (or lack of recoil) or power issues exist, they can be adjusted. Just apply the script that allows him to be playable, and just make him unlockable after the boss fight. Boom, within an hour probably you made a boss into a playable character.

So, in other words, any boss CAN be playable. The problem comes down to is if there is another reason that makes them not a likely addition. So stop saying "Ridley can't be in Brawl because he has a boss music." Go with the traditional (and admit annoying, and easily countered) he is too big, because that is what matters. Not that the may be a boss, but that he cannot be playable due to size (disclaimer: I believe that Ridley can be playable, and that size is not an issue, but I am just proving a point that the song is useless proof). Or find osmething more intelligent. Generally, just prove that Sakurai won't make them playable for XYZ reason. Saying that they are a boss (via speculation, not confirmation) doesn't cut it, because that fact in isolation it is meaningless and proves nothing.

OK. But if we could play with Giga Bowser (ok, we will) in Melee, facing that boss on adventure wouldn´t be so "special". Some bosses just have to be bosses. Period.

Honestly sonic needs to be in this game. for the people who played the secret rings you'd know how sonic would look and fight. He wouldn't be very strong but would be really fast and a good dodger.

Sonic IS the most wanted 3rd party... honestly, I'd rather want to see Ryu or Ken in.

I'll go with Sonic if I had to pick between the two. I can't understand why people want to see fighting game characters in this game? I mean, can't you just fight with them in their game? I love the SF series but come on!

I know besides i think it would be wierd seeing Ryu, Ken or any (SF char for that matter) in Smash Bros

However Sonic & Knuckles (not together) would be so SICK. The possibility for stages are endless.

Knuckles could have the Lava Reef Zone. 1) It would look sick. 2) The music owns.

Sonic could have Icecap Zone/Hydrocity Zone for the same reasons.


Mario - Underground from the 2d Mario games

Luigi - Luigi's Mansion

Earthworm Jim - Buttville (Queen Slug for a butt can appear in the background in a similar fashion to the Brinstar depths design)

Bowser - any bowser castle from the 2d games, or a Bowser castle from the Mario Kart games

That is all for now

I'll go with Sonic if I had to pick between the two. I can't understand why people want to see fighting game characters in this game? I mean, can't you just fight with them in their game? I love the SF series but come on!


No! Link was in Soulcalibur II,
so a Soulcalibur character should be in SSBB!

And I don't want Jigglypuff in any Street Fighter game.
But E. Honda in Smash Bros would slap ass.

Sonic could have Icecap Zone/Hydrocity Zone for the same reasons.

I think a cool Sonic level could be Casino Night. The level could do a lot of pinball features that would be a blast on smash bros.

Yeh I forgot about that zone

I was mainly thinking of Zones from S3&knuckles but Casino Night with the music from Casino Night 2 player would be good

Too bad Nintendo aren't reading this, and probably wouldnt include this stuff neway

That new warioware stage looks awesome! That'll probably end up being one of my faves...

That stage was awesome. I can't wait to try it out.

And no character updates this week? C'mon! I live for character updates!

Earthworm Jim - Buttville (Queen Slug for a butt can appear in the background in a similar fashion to the Brinstar depths design)


I think they would use the first level of Sonic as I believe it is its "trademark level". What is it? Green Hill or something? I don't play much Sonic. Oh, and of course they would remix the theme to that level.

As for Earthworm Jim at Buttville, that would pretty much be a dream come true. Considering he has an obvious moveset (head whip, booger pack, blaster, head spin for slow decent) it would be epic. But... It's just hard to see that happening :(

Yeah man & Queen slug for a butt could pop up in the background like Brinstar Depths. Its wishful thinking but can't a guy dream.

Downloaded content like stages and new costumes would be SICK

This could be way off, but if you look at the music page, and click list of composers, the famed Chrono Trigger composer, Yasunori Mitsuda, is on the list to help with SSBB.

Crono or better yet Frog in SSBB... that's just :lolo:.
soundtracks gonna be SWEET.

Glenn or Crono, or Magus would be damn sweet IMHO.

or perhaps another char from Square: Duran or Hawk from SD3(j/k, like that'll happen)

wouldn't mind seeing Sabin Figaro as a Char. Or Maybe Cecil or Kain

I think Sonic is a likely challenger.

has it been announced that we'll be able to play people over the wifi?

has it been announced that we'll be able to play people over the wifi?
Yes but a long time ago before the game went into development. As a result, no one but 'The Studio', Nintendo, and the one and only Mr. Masahiro Sakurai know.

WarioWare

In the WarioWare games, you must master a variety of microgames in 5 seconds, making them the fastest and shortest games ever. You might want to look into it in more detail.
In trying to recreate that atmosphere in Smash Bros. Brawl, we’ve created an outrageous stage!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831a.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831a-l.jpg)http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831b.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831b-l.jpg)http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831c.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831c-l.jpg)

Wh-what the heck is this? What is going on? What kind of joke is this?

For each challenge you clear, there is, of course, a reward.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage10/stage10_0700831d-l.jpg
The typical screen looks like this.

Ah, what floor would you like, Smash?

Sorry about this post being so late. The following quote comes to mind:

I said my clock's early cause I know I'm always late.

So, regarding stages, which Super Smash Bros. Melee Stages (two of them) and Super Smash Bros. Stages (three of them) would you like to see in Brawl?

I'd like to see:
Temple (Melee)
Big Blue (Melee)
Kongo Jungle (64)
DreamLand (64)

AND

Planet Zebes (64)

All old stages + 50 new.

...I'd like to see all of the stages in Brawl. They don't have to be enhanced like the stages in brawl we're seeing, they're fine the way they are, I'd like to see them, and It wouldn't take much additional coding to put them in there.
Maybe space though :-/

Yes I could begin to see space on the disk as being a problem. I believe the Wii disks hold 4 gigs of data while a double sided disk can hold 8. This is a farcry from blu ray though. That behemoth can hold over 50 gigs.

Space COULD be a problem, which is why I am only seeing about 5 past stages in Brawl if any. Ah well, then.

You know what would be fun? Two+ Pokemon Trainers on Pokemon Stadium! :D

But if you hold it down too long, the gun explodes, so be careful.

Double Update Today!

Pokémon Stadium 2

The previous game, Super Smash Bros. Melee, featured Pokémon Stadium, but it’s been upgraded for this game into Pokémon Stadium 2.
This time around, you’ll see guest Pokémon appearing in the background.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage11/stage11_070906a-l.jpg
Ordinarily, it’s a fairly orthodox stage when nothing special is happening.
But as time passes, the terrain transforms into four different types:
"Electric," "Ground," "Flying," and "Ice."
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage11/stage11_070906b-l.jpg
When it transforms into Ice, things get extremely slippery!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage11/stage11_070906c-l.jpg
A mountain of earth appears in the middle of the screen for the Ground stage!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage11/stage11_070906d-l.jpg
On the Flying stage, everyone’s jump abilities get boosted!
For these four transformations, we’ve chosen types that were not present in Melee.
Terrain that changes suddenly makes fights excitingly unpredictable.

Hose ‘em down! Blast those enemies away.
It does absolutely no damage—it’s just for sending opponents great distances. You can even charge it up while shielding. It’s best used in critical moments.
Huh? What happened to the down special move he’s had up until now—the Mario Tornado?
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/mario/mario_070906d.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/mario/mario_070906d-l.jpg)
He still seems to have this move, though.
Eh? Is it a normal attack?!

I'll do more on FE in a few..

So what you're trying to say is that there is a 72.5% chance that all of those characters will be in Brawl? You're dreaming too much:D. Like I said, I would be willing to bet that Ike will be the only playable character from the FE series. I don't even think that half of the characters you listed above will even be in the game period.....not even in the background. Chances of me being right = 90%.

No I'm not dreaming too much. Did I say all will be in? If there chances are the same, well then, they will have to compete for the spot, wouldn't they? You misunderstood me. :p Although, its sort of my fault for not elaborating. :(

I wouldn't mind at all if there was only Ike. He is my favorite game character. :D

If there was only one FE character however... why not go like this?

Fire Emblem:
Ike

Famicom Wars:
Andy

Golden Sun:
Isaac

to even things out? :eek:

If there are 4 playable Fire Emblem characters in SSBB, these are the ones:

Ike (because he is confirmed)
Marth (because he was in SSBM)
Roy (because he was in SSBM)

And why didn't you even mention him? Sothe

He is the leader in the new Fire Emblem for Wii and he was one of the most popular characters in Fire Emblem for Gamecube!

Have you played the game yet?

Sothe was actually the one of the main lords in Radiant Dawn. Just read up HERE:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_characters_in_Fire_Emblem:_Radiant_Dawn

If one has to be considered the main, I would say its Ike. Although since hes confirmed, I'll bring up Micaiah who is the leader of the Dawn Group. Sothe is the second-in-command of that group.

TRIPLE FRIDAY UPDATE!

MY MUSIC
With the "My Music" feature, you can enjoy the music of our many musicians any way you like. Choose freely from our diverse selection of famous songs!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/music/images/music08/music08_070907a-l.jpg
This is "My Music" in action!
The battle stages of Super Smash Bros. Brawl feature a diverse line-up of game worlds. For example, there are stages based on the Mario universe.
Basically, there is only one song that plays on each stage. But even among the myriad songs of the Mario universe, people probably have different favorites.
Plus, while there may be people who stepped into the Mario universe in the original Nintendo Entertainment System days, surely there are some who first experienced Mario on the Nintendo DS.
With that in mind, I think it’s a bit of a waste to limit that whole universe to just one song.
So we’ve prepared many songs and will let you choose the likelihood that any given song will be played.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/music/images/music08/music08_070907b-l.jpg
This is "My Music" for Delfino Plaza.
For songs you’re particularly fond of, you can increase the likelihood those songs will appear. Then, when you brawl on that stage, the chance of your preferred songs being played increases.
Of course, if you want to, you can limit a stage to only one song, or make every song in the game equally likely to appear.
I’ve asked our reputable list of musicians (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/music/music01.html) to provide many songs for this particular game. But that’s certainly not because I just wanted to cover all these songs.
I’ve asked them to choose the songs that match their personalities and tastes!
Here you will find the best of the best—something you can very rarely get a chance to savor.
If your motivation behind your song selections is simply because you like them, then that’s just fine. Choose your settings as you like.
Just so you know, there may be songs from other games that are left as is, without any new arrangement.
Oh, and by the way, there’s an item in the game called a CD.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/music/images/music08/music08_070907c-l.jpg
This is a CD.
Regardless of which mode you’re playing, if you see one of these, be absolutely sure to grab it. If you want to know why, it’s because CDs are the way you add to your music selection.

Pokemon: Pokemon Stadium (Gym)/Evolution
"Pokémon: Pokémon Stadium/Evolution" (1:21)

Composition Supervisor: Junichi Masuda
Arrangement Supervisor: Kenichi Okuma
• The copyright for this music is held by Nintendo, Creatures Inc. and GAME FREAK inc.• Check your volume settings.
This is the song for Pokémon Stadium. Some games in the series call this song "Gym." We’ve changed the arrangement some from the original Pokémon Stadium, transforming this into a new song.
The part at the end is THAT song. Y’know...
"Look! Samus is evolving!"
...Yeah, that one.

"Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Main Theme" (2:03)

Lyrics Supervisor: Masahiro Sakurai
Lyric Translation: Taro Yamash(i)ta
Composition Supervisor: Nobuo Uematsu
Arrangement Supervisor: Shogo Sakai
Conductor: Taizo Takemoto
Soprano: Oriko Takahashi
Tenor: Ken Nishikiori
• Copyrights for this song are held by Nintendo and HAL Laboratory, Inc.• Check your volume settings.
This is the main theme for this game that was unveiled on the preview site! We’ve made you wait, but you can listen to it once again.
You’ll be able to hear this song here and there throughout the game. It’s such an important song, you could even call it the core of this game.

LOL! The auto-fisher censored some the men's names! So I went back and edited things up a bit.

Anyway, the My Music feature is very awesome. One of the best updates yet! Plus, they reveal quite a few songs such as The Dark World and Delfino Plaza, some of my favorite gaming songs ever!

Also, for those of you that don't know, (dk_xcalibur) here is the full list of musicians:
This is dangerous. It's a little risky.
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, it's the line-up of musicians who are contributing to Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Just take a look at this list!

Seriously?! To have so many of these individuals providing music for a single work may very well be an historic event in the history of video-game music!
It's almost unthinkable!

Of course, Smash will let you enjoy music from a wide variety of Nintendo games.
A number of individuals have put their touch on these arrangements.

Using the game music that has entertained so many as the base for new arrangements by so many famed musicians... Not too shabby, eh?

Here on Smash Bros. Dojo, we will share that music with you through occasional trial listening. Since this is my first post, I thought I would give you an arrangement of the song you probably heard most often in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Menu 1.
Motoi Sakuraba headed up that arrangement!

• The copyright for this music is held by Nintendo and

We've asked our group of arrangement supervisors to listen to an elite selection of Nintendo music and asked them to arrange several of their favorite songs...which means there will be quite a number of songs.

You'll have to look forward to which ones.

what do you mean by that? of course i have played the game.

but you mentioned 65% blah blah characters that are pretty unknown.

Sothe is 90% so you should have put him in.

That music update was amazing:)

MUNCHLAX
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/mball/images/mball04/mball04_070910a.jpg
Munchlax is the pre-evolved form of Snorlax.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/mball/images/mball04/mball04_070910b.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/mball/images/mball04/mball04_070910b-l.jpg)
It slowly walks around.
It’s extremely carefree, but it’s said to be the glutton of the Pokémon...
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/mball/images/mball04/mball04_070910c.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/mball/images/mball04/mball04_070910c-l.jpg)

Don’t eat that!
I guess Munchlax is a bit of an item hog. Any item it gets, it eats! It’s kind of hard to tell it to stop, though.

Oh, some of you'll be torn up by this one due to non-PC-ism

LYN
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/items/assist/images/assist07/assist07_070911a.jpg
A young girl from the Sacae plains, Lyn (whose true name is Lyndis) makes a guest appearance from the Game Boy Advance game Fire Emblem.

Lyn descends gallantly. She looks tough.
She wields what looks like a classical Japanese sword, so she’s similar to Samurai Goroh, but her sword strokes are a little different from his reckless slashing.

Battleship Halberd
It has arrived! The Battleship Halberd! It’s Meta Knight’s battleship...isn’t it?
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912a.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912a-l.jpg)
This warship’s bow is dazzling!
This stage begins in a hangar on the high seas. The platform follows the Halberd as it departs.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912b.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912b-l.jpg)
Ooooh. It’s so dynamic!
Eventually, you land on the ship’s deck.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912c.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912c-l.jpg)
What you see in the background is a double-barreled battery. With an arm.
Use extreme caution near the double-barreled battery! It launches beams and missiles and even attacks with its arm.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912d.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stages/images/stage12/stage12_070912d-l.jpg)
Dodge it well and try to make it hit your foe!
The Battleship Halberd appears not only in multiplayer Brawl stages, but also plays a very important role in The Subspace Emissary. That role is something you’ll have to look forward to.

Special Brawl
What is Special Brawl?!
This is a mode that lets you apply special rules to normal brawls to customize your favorite ways to play!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913a.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913a-l.jpg)
This is the Special Brawl Screen!
As you can see, you can apply a variety of rules at the same time. Before, you could only choose one, like Giant Melee, so this is a pretty cool step forward.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913b.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913b-l.jpg)
First, let’s try putting on the Bunny Hood.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913c.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913c-l.jpg)
And then add metal...
When you do this, you apply that characteristic from the start of the match to the end.
You can see the effects on the side of the screen, which is kind of fun. And getting the caption up above is also nice.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913d.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various04/various04_070913d-l.jpg)
It’s a Stamina Mega Flower Curry Heavy Slow Angled Brawl!

And that’s how you fight!
Please try out a variety of different Brawl settings.

These two move as a pair, with Nana automatically following along. There’s safety in numbers—protect and be protected!

The flash of a blade!
You’ll get helplessly cut down if you suffer a solid blow from this blade. If you call her forth as your ally, grab your enemies to make them easier for her to hit.

Who do you guys still want for Brawl? My most wanted, Ike, has already been confirmed however, I have some other wanted characters... They are:

(Post pics!)

MOST WANTED FOR PLAYABLE:
FIRST PLACE:http://www.the-nextlevel.com/previews/gamecube/zelda_wind_waker/wind_waker_link.gifYoung Link: Reworked into WW Link with a completely unique moveset.

SECOND PLACEhttp://www.gamed.nl/messages/19816.jpgMicaiah from Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.

THIRD PLACEhttp://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/c/c7/250px-BowserJr2.jpgBowser Jr.

Out of those three........Bowser Jr. would be cool.

LAME!!! ICs are in Brawl. Let the puking commence.

LAME!!! ICs are in Brawl. Let the puking commence.
So sad, you are one of the many that 'hate the ICs'.

damn, i din think it was possible, but this game keeps looking better and better.

Super Smash Bros. = best party game of all time?

damn, i din think it was possible, but this game keeps looking better and better.

Super Smash Bros. = best party game of all time?
No Mario Party i--- *slapped*

I was kidding! Smash Bros. is the best party game of all time! :D

Brawl WILL be the best video game of all time, and ICs inclusion has just got me thinking that if the developers really didn't have enough space for characters then they would've have included ICs. Therefore, we should have many more characters to come. Here's to hoping at least 40.

whats the I stand for?

whats the I stand for?
Ice Climbers... lol.

Good to see Ice climbers back lol. I hope all the Melee characters return actually

In melee have any of you got to fight that big huge bowser?

In melee have any of you got to fight that big huge bowser?
I did. I lost the first time as Jigglypuff so I changed to Marth, replayed the Adventure Mode, and kicked some ass.

Also, I played as Jiggs again recently because I remembered his sleepy fire thing special move and KO'd Giga Bowser in two hits.

"This game supports Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. If you connect your Wii to the Internet, you can enjoy linked battles with distant people!
For details, click here (http://www.nintendowifi.com/).
But because this form of communication is greatly affected by the distance between you and your opponent, your brawls may not run smoothly if you’re really far apart—like, for instance, if you’re connecting between Japan and America.
The more distant you are, the worse your connection becomes, and the slower it feels. I apologize, but I hope you understand.
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/wi-fi/images/wi-fi01/wi-fi01_070918a.jpg (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/wi-fi/images/wi-fi01/wi-fi01_070918a-l.jpg)
This is the main menu for Wi-Fi!
There are two primary connection methods. The names of these methods are "With Friends" and "With Anyone." The menus and structures of each method are pretty different.

YES!! WIFI!! Brawl's gonna be the greatest video game EVER!!

YES!! WIFI!! Brawl's gonna be the greatest video game EVER!!

Right... :sleepy:

Just like Halo?

Come on, games coming out are fun, but the antisipation ruins it. Everything gets overhyped and then the actual game seems not as good as everybody says it is.

But I am glad it's coming out soon.

I actually think it will seem as good, which is a scary thought alltogether. But realisticly, everyone pretty much knows what to expect from SSBB, since its gameplay is the same as Melee, but with just more characters, items, modes and other additional content. And SmashBros.com is telling us exactly what these additions are. People hype about it, but they aren't hyping over fantasies and hopes but over fact, things that'll be exactly the same on the disc this december (or... Q1 08 for EU grrr:mad:).

..........then don't go on a video game related website!

I was able to check the update site out this morning so I got a chance to see Snake. After checking him out and seeing his moves I can say that I could care less if he were in the game. In my opinion, he doesn't fit in. His missle move sounds dumb. I might have said this before, but I think Nintendo should have told Hideo Kojima to take a flying leap! Where is the Wii's Metal Gear Solid 4????? Nintendo hooks Hideo up and in return gets a couple of ports that were released on other systems a year earlier:confused:

Next to these revealed projects, Kojima and his team are also working on a game for the Wii (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii) console. After the revelation of the controller, Kojima showed interest and excitement about its possibilities and later stated that he will be making a game to utilize its features specifically for the Wii. No further details have been revealed on this project. It is possible that this is the aforementioned Project 'S'. Kojima has stated that he would rather make a game for the Wii rather than continue on with MGS4.

Kojima personally requested for Solid Snake to appear in Super Smash Bros. Melee (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Smash_Bros._Melee), and got his chance with the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Brawl (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl) for Nintendo's Wii (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii) console (the former could not have been done due to the fact that Melee was already far in production at the time of the request). It is confirmed that he will be working on Snake's stage for SSBB. He commented on the game after playing a build of it with the game's director (Masahiro Sakurai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masahiro_Sakurai)) and said that if it were to be released now, it would sell millions.

After reading the above, I changed my mind about my earlier comments. I still do not believe Snake fits in though.

....Snake's ok I guess. But I wish Kojima had asked for Django & Sabata to be there as well....they just seem more Nintendo-ey. They could've had a stage set in that vampire city....:p

*Starts daydreaming about the Gun del Sol*

I've never played a metal gear game...what does Snake actually do anyway?

He is a special forces operative....guns, grenades, missles, sneaking around.

i got to say it the new subspace update only brought one thing to my head SUB SPACE GENERALS

Subspace Generals could very well happen... as for the emissary, I don't think it is Meta-Knight. I believe it is really the Ancient Minister, forcing others to work for his master's cause. (Meta, Petey etc.) The master, its too obvious isn't it?

Subspace General Ideas:
Petey Piranha (Confirmed)
King Boo
Marx
Medeus
Meta-Ridley
Pokey in Mech

I hope that at the end of the Subspace Emissary, after beating Ancient Minister of course, his true form is revealed...and he is an enemy that will blow us all out of the water...

Anyhow, anyone hear about Lucas being in? He is not too intersting in my opinion but Mother has never really been too exciting to me... here's to another character next week! Hopefully it'll be a better newcomer! Also, Lucas was an obvious choice but, will he replace Ness due to that ominous "Will he even surpass Ness?" We don't know if it means Ness will be nerfed in this game and Lucas will be unlockable or if it means "Will he even surpass Ness... whom was in the older version of Smash?"

Mothers not intresting because there to lazy to realease it here.

Every characer has there own story aparently and they could fit anyone in.

I'm excited about it, but I'm not AS excited about it as I am about Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Mario Kart Wii etc.

Really? I find Brawl the most anticipated game of the decade for me.

if everybody has there own story how is diddy kong gonna fit in. how are the ice climbers gonna fit in. HOW is the POKEMON TRAINER gonna fit in:lolo:

Here is my take on things: (originally posted this on another forum)
Kirby + Peach or Zelda:
Kirby brakes one of the Petey's cages, freeing one of two princesses, obviously Peach or Zelda. These two team up to look for the canon-balled away Mario.

Mario + Pit:
Mario is still flying while Pit is flying to the arena and eventually hits Pit, sending them both into Skyworld. At Skyworld, they find that the Subspace Army has heard of Palutena's directions.

Link + Yoshi:
Before the Subspace Army reached the Arena, Yoshi and Link somehow team up. Link goes through the dirt tunnel, (under the well perhaps?) defeats a Subspace general, and saves Yoshi. (probably by breaking a cage) This also explains them watching the Halberd after it engulfed the arena in Subspace; they obviously followed it!

Samus + Meta Knight:
Fox is sent a distress call from the Arena right when it is being engulfed, as does Samus. They make chase after the Halberd right around the time after Link and Yoshi see it at the hilltop. Fox is eventually shot down but Samus boards the Halberd. She is captured by the Ancient Minister, who forces Meta Knight to battle her. She defeats Meta Knight and knocks his senses back into him. The two then attempt to fly away in Samus's ship, only to find that it is out of fuel. Samus's ship crashes to the ground, leaving them stranded and having to find their way back to civilization, only to find more of the Subspace Army.

Fox + Pikachu:
Fox is shot down into Kanto, where he helps Pikachu by defeating the Subspace Army members in the area.

Ice Climbers + The Other Princess:
The Halberd lands on Icicle Mountain and the Ice Climbers investigate. They are eventually caught and sent into a prison cell in the Halberd, where they find the other princess. These three start out the level smashing down the cell door. After the door is smashed down, alarms sound off and they have to fight their way to the deck. On the deck they find another K Rool guarding a flying ship. Once K Rool is defeated, the three all fly far away from the Halberd. There are other characters in other cells located throughout the Halberd. If you save these characters, you will obtain their trophies when you beat this level.

Donkey Kong + Bowser + Diddy Kong:
DK, Diddy, and Bowser have no choice but to work together in their respective world as three subspace generals, King Boo, The Black Knight, and Vaati (Eye Form) are now controlling the area.

Wario + Lucas:
Wario is riding through the desert on his bike like in the first trailer and Lucas is also riding in the desert on the Saturn Runner with Boney the dog. Wario speeds under the Saturn Runner, making it nervous, and eventually falling over on top of Wario's bike. Wario and the others are sent flying a few feet and says "HEY! YOU IDIOT!" and the two get into an argument. Pokey then falls from the sky. His mech's foot stabs Wario's bike, making it explode. Wario yells "MAMA MIA!" and runs after Pokey. After running a few feet after Pokey, he started noticing that it was too exhausting to chase after Pokey on his own two feet. He runs the Saturn Runner and kicks its side, making it start running with him, Lucas, and Boney on board. Boney doesn't fight but he does appear as an assist trophy once you beat the level.

Ike + Snake:
The Halberd is attacking Tellius, leaving Ike and the Greil Mercenaries fighting the Subspace Army. Snake jumps down from the Halberd, challenging Ike to a battle. Ike wins and Snake commends him, offering to join him in his battle against his old master. Ike obviously accepts and the two fly off into Shadow Moses by holding onto Snake's cypher as it floats forward. Snake moans "This is going to be a long trip... have any lizard?"

Pokemon Trainer + Jigglypuff:
Pokemon Trainer finds Jigglypuff hiding in a corner. Jigglypuff moans and Pokemon Trainer sprays some potion on it, restoring its strength. The Jigglypuff now follows Pokemon Trainer wherever he goes.

<Cook Kirby>
Kirby is quite the glutton. He apparently even does his own cooking.
