Samurai Goro, Hammer Bro and a Nintendog as assists... that looks nice. But on the other hand, why do we still have Pokéballs, anyway? I mean, the Pokémons could count as assists as well, couldn't they?
Also, it's nice that Sakurai revealed one more fighter, Zelda. And she looks great! When I saw Goro today, I thought he was another fighter revealed as well... that's a pity...

2. Well, Nintendo people said they want Sonic in it, Sega people said they want Sonic in it, the players said they want Sonic in it. Someone's got to be really stupid if Sonic isn't in it, after all...

I like the brunette look w/ darker clothes alot. It seems like they will be keeping her slow but they will (hopefully) be making her more powerful. I wonder if anything will confirm my prediction that Sheik won't be in the game. I'm also curious about what her Final Smash will be.
Since she seems based on TP Zelda, I'm pretty sure Sheik won't appear. That means she could get all the attacks she used in TP, that is, sword, magic and bow attacks. In fact, after TP she has a decent movepool to pick from. The Final Smash?... Some kind of big magic, Triforce-related, probably.

Figures. Also, I think Zero Suit Samus is going to wind up wth most of Sheik's gameplay which will help both ZSS and Zelda since a move doesn't have to be wasted on the transformation.
The roster is shaping up pretty well. I'm glad Meta Knight, Wario, and Pit made it in and I hope that Diddy (especially with the Melee rumors). It would also be cool if King Dedede and Little Mac and/or his coach made it in but I doubt it.
If the rumour about the Ice Climbers being absent from SSBB is true, I'd love to see Diddy and Dixie teaming up like them. Plus, this is probably the only chance of Dixie being a playable character (although she has a good chance of becoming an assist trophy, I guess).
Is Little Mac the guy from Super Punch-Out!! ? He would be great, as well! And maybe some character from PilotWings... Ibis, maybe?

As much as I'd like Diddy (and Dixie) in, I'd be mad if the trade off was to remove Popo and Nana. The Ice Climbers were a really cool choice from way out in left field and while they do need to be toned down, they shouldn't be kicked to the curb.
That's true... probably the Ice Climbers will remain, Diddy will be added as a regular fighter (come on, he's one of Nintendo's most popular characters!)... and if Dixie is lucky, she'll be an assist trophy...
I hope she doesn't get left out in favour of Tiny, though... BTW, what's up with Tiny's new design?? She was so cute as a little monkey and the child of the team, and suddenly she gets older than her older sister Dixie, grows up and starts dressing herself like Candy Kong... not a nice change.

(please, no clones).
I'll take as many clones as they want to give me, as long as that doesn't reduce the number of non-clone characters. A game like this is all about being able to use your favorite character, so the way I see it, the more characters the better. I don't particularly like Ness, so I wouldn't use him, but if they made Kumatora as a Ness clone, I'd probably use her all the time. (of course, this is hypothetical since we don't even know if Ness is in.)
As for the music...I love what they're doing with the different composers, but none of the stuff they've presented (short of the opening song) is nearly as good as the soundtrack to the last game, if only because it isn't orchestrated.

Now his Egg Toss can work as a third jump (finally!), and he looks exactly like his Mario Party/Super Mario Sunshine/etc incarnations. I've always preferred his original SMW design and his bark/squeak (?) sound. Rumble Falls takes the place of Icicle Mountain...why?? That stage is such a nuisance that my friends and I disabled it from random select! Hopefully the vertical scrolling is at a slow, steady pace because you had to focus more on keeping up with the stage than fighting.
edit: No more DK rap?
Yoshi was a quite obvious choice, actually. His music was one of the first released ones, and one of the already revealed stages is based in his games, as well.
I hope Sakurai decides to reveal soon the new characters. The really new ones; we already know Meta-Knight is in it, and some characters from Melee are obviously returning (Captain Falcon, Luigi, Peach...), so their comeback isn't exactly a surprise...
About the DK rap, it would be a great addition. But if it's the DK64 rap, its composer needs to rework the lyrics (I mean, Diddy may be a playable character, but Chunky, Tiny and Lanky will most likely be out of it).

I like the DK rap, and the lyrics are perfect the way they are. I mean, c'mon, "Walnuts, peanuts, pineapple smells. Grapes, melons, oranges, and coconut shells?" It's so campy! I'm thinking Rumble Falls will have stage music taken from DK: Jungle Beat or a remixed composition of the original tune.
Another update: Skyworld (Pit's stage) and footstool jump. The description is pretty vague so I could be wrong, but it sounds like every character can do a meteor smash while performing this technique on a mid-air opponent
GAME OVER?? But I beat the game!

Sure, I'm not saying there's anything wrong about the DK rap melody or lyrics. It's just that it would sound weird when it comes to the parts of the song that refer to Chunky, Lanky and Tiny, when other Kongs probably have more chance to be in it (even as Assist Trophies) than them (i.e. Cranky, Dixie, Funky, Wrinkly's ghost...).
Oh, and speaking about Assist Trophies, it seems that Knuckle Joe will be one of them. I have no idea about who is he, but it seems he's from Kirby's games.

| "New adventure mode + another character" , posted Fri 3 Aug 21:24
Today, the SSBB revealed another game mode, called "Super Smash Bros. Brawl: The Subspace Emissary". It is described as a robust side-scrolling action game, it has a storyline told by quick movies, and it also emphasizes character development. Quite cool, doesn't it seem?
Oh, and we can include Princess Peach among the characters now. Although she wasn't described yet, nor her render has been shown, but she appears in the new video, along Mario, Zelda and Kirby.
(speaking about character files, isn't it weird that Meta-Knight is confirmed but didn't get one of his own yet?)

The Pokemon trainer is a cool idea, especially from a gameplay perspective. Unfortunately, his pokemon are lame and he looks like crap.
But then again, what do I know about Pokemon?
Still...new characters! I finally hunted down a Wii, so when Smash Bros comes out, I won't have to kill myself.
Well, the pokémon trainer is basically the same as the one in the first game / Ash from the anime. However, I wish he used different pokémon, too. Squirtle is lame, and Venusaur could be replaced by something cooler, like Sceptile. Charizard is a fine choice, even if it's maybe too over used everywhere.

Hah, this, I wasn't expecting: A new character, called "Pokémon trainer" who doesn't fight, but rather controls 3 different pokémon: Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard, and remains in the background himself. Can be interesting to use.
Okay, so he doesn't fight... but can he be beaten??
He's beaten when he runs out of Pokemon; chances are you have to beat all 3 of them in order to win.
And overall its an interesting choice-- trainer from the first game, using the three starters, each in a different stage of evolution (initial type Squirtle, 1st evolution Ivysaur, and 2nd evolution Charizard)
I found Kagami's sword in a junk yard.
I will rule the world and find that truly good cup of coffee.

Strangely, IMO, her face looks less detailed now than it looked in SSB:Melee...
I wouldn't necessarily say that. If you compare it to, say, http://www.ubergaming.net/games/Melee/images/Peach.jpg.
She's a bit differently shaded, it seems, but apart from that it looks like she's retained her plastic-y, doll like looks.
Well... yeah, maybe.
Still, I liked her Melee render better than this Brawl one. There, she actually looked less plastic and more human; you could add spiky ears to her and she could perfectly fit as a Legend of Zelda character. Now I don't think she looks as good as Link or Zelda.
Although this doesn't make any difference to me; I dislike Peach anyway... (Daisy and Pauline rule!!)

I'm not sure what rules about Pauline. She only has 2 traits.
1) She is a victim
2) She kind of looks like a hooker (?)
Yup, that's the second trait that makes her so special...
...Just kidding! I think she looks nice, and she could be better developed into the Mario games. After all, she's the first lady to be paired with Mario, right?
Anyway, Daisy is still my favorite among the three of them. It's always great seeing her into the sports/party games, but it would be nice if she could appear into a real Mario game (like the Paper Mario series, for instance).
quote:
As for Diddy, I hate him and I think he looks like garbage (poorly-rendered generic little boy monkey?). So much like garbage that he's stinking up the game, but that's only my opinion and if people are happy to see him in the game, then it was a good decision to include him.
Well, Diddy isn't a favorite of mine either, but the reason I'm glad is that until Brawl, DK was the only Kong featured in the Smash Bros. games, and that was unfair to a very popular franchise. As I said, I think Dixie would be a much better option (or even Lanky Kong, who is kinda cool), but Diddy is the most popular Kong after DK, so...

Yeah, I agree. I wish they'd make a Mario game that incorporated lots of the characters. Like, maybe each world would deal with a different character set with Wario and Waluigi as recurring villains/nuisances.
That would be great! Wario, Waluigi, Daisy, Birdo, even Toadette... all these characters deserve to be in at least one real Mario game (real = not another Party or sports game). Since the Paper Mario series has an RPG environment with a lot of characters, maybe they could appear on the next game. But even if they are in the sequel to Super Mario Galaxy, that would already be great!
quote:
What about Pauline, the girl from Donkey Kong?
Sure! Pauline should take part of it, as well.
Actually, she would be an interesting addition to the Mario regular plot; it would be nice (and funny) to see how Peach would react to a girl that flirts with Mario all the time (and as we saw on Super Princess Peach, it's not a good idea to make Peach get angry...). That wouldn't work with Daisy, since she was established as Luigi's love interest (and he as hers).
Plus, Donkey Kong could kidnap her constantly, just to keep up the gag.

Now, the Sonic video... I love Sonic, but him coming and pushing Mario for no reason (and later beating Mario, DK and even Peach) was quite rude... I hope Mario "returns him the favor" later.
The Snake video was essentially the same thing and nobody complained about that one.
Yeah, but Snake's video was more of a gag of Snake's way of acting, making comments on Nintendo's characters and all... he even compliments Mario; plus, he doesn't hit Mario in the CG, only in the gameplay videos.
Sonic hitting Mario in the CG video is just rude. If he passed by, then Spin Jumped at the Goomba and kept running, leaving Mario confused about what happened, THAT would be funny.

Only a BRIEF stint in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the GBA. And that wasn't even a FF game.

I doubt it. Snake was able to get by because he's actually had a few games on Nintendo platforms, but Cloud never made any sort of splash amongst the Nintendo faithfuls.
If Square-Enix was destined to get that last spot, I would think that they would use some one who would be able to better strike a chord with the Nintendo fan base. Any one from Geno (SMRPG), a Black Mage, or some one from FFs 4 and 6 would probably be fair game in this light. Hell, putting in Kain from FF4 would probably be a nice way to advertise for the upcoming remake on the DS...
Even so, my heart of hearts wants to see Rockman. The ORIGINAL model, too, not X or any of the would be pretenders.

Actually, Meowth is not playable. He's just one of the Pokémons that can come out of the Pokéball when it is thrown. Although he would be a better character than Pikachu (yes, I know, Pikachu is the most famous Pokémon and all, but maybe because of the anime, I consider him quite boring...).
BTW, there doesn't seem to be really a difference between the Pokéballs and the Assist Trophies, is there? Well, except that the Pokéballs summon the Pokémons, and the Trophies summon everyone else from Nintendo.

I meant to say something sooner, but I've been crossing my fingers for Chun Li (well...and Sonic) since way back when the original trailer was revealed with Snake and Nintendo mentioned they intended on having more third parties. Even had a daydream with Peach calling together a meeting/war room scenario/tea party with all the other female characters (with Nana sneaking off from Popo) to reveal her "secret weapon", only for Chun Li to call and cancel since she's already in the field beating the mess out of most of the (human) male characters.
That would be BRILLIANT!! Wow, I can even imagine the promotional video (like the ones for Snake and Sonic):
In a pink room (probably Peach's room), we see Peach in front of some curtains. Facing her, are Zelda, Samus (with armor on but without the helmet), Nana, Lyn, and any other girls that appear in Brawl either as playable or as Assist Trophies.
Peach speaks (not sure if she would really talk or just move her lips while a subtext appear below, since most characters in Melee didn't have exact conversations) something like this: "The Super Smash Brawl has always been treated like a boys' game. But this time, we girls have a secret weapon on our side to put us girls on top! Ladies, I present you... THE STRONGEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD!!".
Then the curtains open, and reveal... nothing. Then a phone rings, Peach gets it, and the scene changes to Chun-Li, in one of the Brawl stages, saying: "Sorry about the delay, I'm a little busy right now...". She throws off the phone and engages into battle with Mario and Link (not actual fighting, just them running towards each other).
Finally, some gameplay demonstration with her, and in the end, she appears at Peach's room making her "yata!" victory pose (no jumping, though), while the other girls salute her, cheer and give her applauses.
Capcom, please consider this idea! It could even work as a brilliant way to keep the hype for SF IV...
MegaMan and Ryu are cool, but Chun-Li is THE STRONGEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD... consider that.

I don't care if it is broken; SSB:Brawl so far seems to be the most promising and most interesting fighting game I have seen in years.
I mean, look at that Subspace Emissary Mode: unless it is very short, it could even be released as a different game for Wii! And we still have plenty of characters (and unlike Melee, no clones so far...), stages, great music, the "Break the Target" and "Home-Run" minigames, online multiplayer, online tournaments and, today, the Classic mode was revealed, which seems to be simple but fun!
If Nintendo just adds Dixie Kong as an Assist Trophy and either Chun-Li or Harry Potter as the third non-Nintendo fighter, it will be my dream game come true! And even if Nintendo doesn't do it, it'll still be a definite must-buy game!
edit: BTW, according to JEUX-FRANCE, the voice actress of Krystal (from the recent Star Fox games) confirmed that Krystal will be in SSB:Brawl. But she didn't say if Krystal will be a playable character, an Assist Trophy, a regular trophy or just a cameo...
