how is there not already a smash bros brawl thread? i know we all expected to have the game by now, but its been delayed TWICE. it's gonna be a great game so let's discuss it. any new surprise characters you're hoping for? which character do you think you're going to start out with? anyone you're hoping to come back that hasn't yet been announced? etc. the game is gonna have online play and a stage creation feature. who else is ready for this game?<br><br>remember to check out www.smashbros.com for updates every weekday.

I'm a big Kirby fan and I can't wait to play with Sr Meta Knight (and I believe King DeDeDe is also included?). They better release this fast..

I just can't believe it's pushed back AGAIN. March 9th is too long to wait and by that time I'll be knee deep in theatre with no time to play anyway. *sigh*
At least it will be really awesome. And I also hope Jigglypuff comes back. She was my number 1.

Apparently in 1 of the japanese trailers, when they are introducing the stickers, in the sticker info for Groudon, you can see the icons for Pikachu, Pokemon Trainer, Jigglypuff, and Lucario, making people think that Jigglypuff and Lucario are in the game

I wanna use Sonic for fun value and Pikman just cause he's in there

WINDWAKER LINK BETTER NOT BE A RUMOR.

Fracture · « **Reply #7 on:** January 30, 2008, 02:16:45 PM »

^ He's confirmed.

Roxasu · « **Reply #8 on:** January 30, 2008, 04:03:24 PM »

based on a screenshot at Serebii.net
the complete list is:

-Start-
Mario
Fox
Link
Zelda
Peach
Bowser
Pikachu
DK
Pkmn Trainer
Olmar
Diddy
King DeeDee
Lucas
Kirby
Ice Climbers
Metaknight
Pit
Samus
Yoshi
Ike
Wario

-Secret-
Sonic
Snake
Jigglypuff
Game and Watch
Gannondorf
Falco
Capt. Falcon
Lucario
Ness
Marth
Windwaker Link
Robot

The screenshots on the official SSBB site for the char select screen doesn't show the already confirmed Sonic and Snake, meaning they are hidden somewhere

Also, in the case of Pkmn Trainer and Zelda you can choose which form/pkmn you wanna start with at the char select screen

Looks like a pretty nice list.

I wonder if there are further hidden characters.

Sweet!

I'm super excited to see Marth back in action as well. I don't dig Ike that much (mainly because I played that Fire Emblem... and enh, he wasn't my favorite). And what's the deal with the Robot? I mean, it looks pretty cool... but what!?

eglue · « **Reply #11 on:** January 30, 2008, 06:28:51 PM »

i hope link/wind waker link, captain falcon/ganondorf, fox/falco, and mario/luigi are not copies of each others movesets. it'd be cooler if they had their own set of moves instead of just being copies except faster/slower/stronger/etc. falco was my character in melee though so thats cool he's back.

Yes! I f*cking love that Link! I was disapointed because I heard Young Link wouldn't be in brawl, but Windwaker Link definitely makes up for it. It's still Young Link (Toon Link in this case) in a sense

btw, thanks for making this thread eglue. I was so close to doing it about 2 days ago, don't know why I didn't

Complete List : http://www.videogamesblogger.com/2007/07/03/official-super-smash-bros-brawl-character-list.htm
35 characters total.

The roster is insane!! Fox was my fav in Melee so i cant wait to try out Wolf. Im also excited to try out Meta Knight, Windwaker Link, Snake, and ROB just for kicks. Cant wait till March 9th!!!!

So what kind of controller will you guys be brawling with? I personally am I mixed between the GC controller or the Wii classic controller. I'll prolly go with GC cuz im familiar with its controls and it has rumble features.

Just got my hands on it and had my first shot at the story mode. Sorry, since I haven't played the earlier game, dunno what's changed.
Pretty fun so far. But I really need to get another controller and a 2nd player.

Here's some pics of the character section from the manual.

I didn't know about Sheik, from one of the newer zelda games? (i only got to link to the past...):

For all the Kirby fans:

Samus and Fox (samus switching to zero-suit after finishing move, which i remember is the same as before):

Here's the vs character select screen. Only 21 characters to begin with, so I'm sure the other characters are all considered secret and must be unlocked (including snake and sonic etc...).
A tiny bit of fanservice from the big N. Color-change (using A or B) also added cosmetic changes for 2 characters, like PikaAsh!

:

...and Evillink

:

Finally the photo mode (hey, it's my hobby!).

Win fights, get coins, shoot spaceships game with coins, get character trophies and stickers. My first photo (note to self, need to buy an SD card...):

Mugen · « **Reply #15 on:** January 31, 2008, 09:13:21 AM »

Fox was hella cheap in smash bros lo

Ayabie · « **Reply #16 on:** January 31, 2008, 10:10:26 AM »

Judging from in-game footage, I'd say Pit and ROB seem interesting.

And winner, how's Wario?

winner · « **Reply #17 on:** January 31, 2008, 01:29:11 PM »

Stopped with story-mode, and played the "classic" mode option next to it. Tried Wario, Link and Pikachu.

Inside were a lot of nice stuff. like:

1. Special characters appear (I think they're all NPCs). Like metal wario, giant pit.
...and like some people guessed, the boss is:

2. You get your selected character's trophy after beating him. You also get coins, and also rewards in a glass shelf.

3. Even the end-credits after the boss fight is a shooting mini-game...

4. Then you'll see this:

(Dunno if all are like this) Beat the challenger, and you got a new select character! (just got C. Falcon)

===========================================================================================

Update: glass shelf only comes up after you've done a specific challenge (like complete destroying all targets the challenge between rounds in classic mode). Don't use the hammers found at the bottom, they are scarce and should only be used for the rewards with the harder challenges (too late for me though....)

Unlocked characters: C. Falcon, Marth, Luigi

Gamefaqs already has the way to unlock some of the newcomers:

Sonic seems so far away now....

Update: just got Sonic in classic mode too, so gamefaqs is not totally correct yet~ Cos I'm nowhere near the end of SSE.
