Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Gen. Discussion & Info

I love pikmin. I played through the first one four or five times and have yet to get the second b/c im a CAG and cant find it for less than $30.

THis update makes me very, very, very excited. I expect to use him extensively.
 
Yeah I see no reason for this to be delayed at all, and if it were the collective Smash world would have a heart attack. Anyway a list of characters most wanted in Japan:

Geno(5)
King Dedede(5) -confirmed!
Diddy Kong(4) -confirmed!
Ike(4) -confirmed!
Ridley(4)
Olimar & Pikmin(3) -confirmed!
Krystal(3) -confirmed to at least be in the game
Takamaru(3)
Windwaker Link(3)

Seems like Ridley is a shoe in!

I also had a discussion with some friends about additional third party characters and we came to the conclusion that Yoshimitsu and Ryu Hayabusa would be excellent choices. Yoshimitsu for Nintendo's work with Namco and Link appearing in Soul Calibur 2 (though Namco would obviously pimp out Pacman) and Ryu Hayabusa for the Ninja Gaiden series that originally appeared on the NES and has another installment coming to the DS. I would actually be quite happy with either character and both would make for very cool additions.
 
Now that is a motherfucking update. Now give me my Hector already![quote name='RelentlessRolento']other than the king dede update, this has to be my favorite.[/quote]Level. Creator.
 
[quote name='lilboo']There's NO reason that this game should be delayed. From what I know, the game is COMPLETE.[/quote]
Yeah it seems like the Japanese version is done, but maybe they had problems getting everything translated on time, or don't want to put too much stress on the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection by releasing both at around the same time.

Normally I wouldn't really care about rumors like this, but the fact that several retailers have a March date when the February date is very well known, with Gamefly, which I guess doesn't really care about NDAs since they have put up unannounced games on their site before (like RE4 Wii Edition) , gives it some credence.

I really hope we don't have to wait an extra month.

Yeah, I agree. I'm actually worried that the Level Creator is going to distract me from unlocking stuff in the early bonanza.
 
[quote name='lilboo']Everytime we get an update now.. I'm going to be checking the release date first.. :cry:[/quote]
I hope it gets delayed for a year so they can finetune the gameplay.
I have enough games to play right now.:cool:

No...just...no.
 
[quote name='Rig']With 12 shots, they can't be doing much damage?[/quote]

Not necessarily. It depends on the implementation. Maybe each shot is hard to hit with, and then you have that timer on you to force your aim. A direct hit and not the splash damage could be trouble.

If the US version does get a delay I'm sure they'll give us a really good update, like a new character (or even a new third party character).
 
This is pretty cool, it looks fun to do.
I wonder if you choose to do the Wii Remote/Nunchuck, if you'll be able to point the screen with the remote..that'll make it hella easier!

Good question. People playing with the Wiimote and Nunchuck could have a huge advantage if they can use the pointer. Maybe they'll get less time.

This seems like it will be almost impossible to pull off since everyone can see exactly where you're aiming. But, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Yeah it's weird how Snake turns green and flies like that, the first thing that came to my mind was the Green Lantern.
 
I went to Florida for the new years and I've only just been able to get my computer back on.

So I think the good thing about Olimar being revealed now is that it shows there are still characters they never planned to show on the site before launch. That gives me hope for the obvious cues like Luigi, Shiek, and even some of other vets like Ness, Ganondorf, Falcon. On the other hand we do have nice square character lists now.
 
Wow, Olimar... that was unexpected. They always end up surprising the hell out of me with some of these updates.

Feb. can't come soon enough.
 
IMO Peach sucked, Sheik was decent though. It will be fun kickin people's asses into outerspace with little flower...um...pikmin. It just seems like it could be so comical.
 
The generally accepted tiers has Sheik in the very highest tier along with Fox and Marth, with Peach, Captain Falcon, Falco, and Samus in the tier directly below that one.

Something like that anyway
 
According to Tony of Lion Games, his expected ship date is now March 12th with the official release being Sunday, March 9th. That's the date he's getting from his distributor. I think it has been delayed, again. Gah.
 
You know, I've come to be able to give you the benefit of the doubt once I realized "he simply must not have anything better to do."

But when your entire gimmick is based on the premise of "I'll only come back and be a dick when things happen that are annoying to Nintendo fans, and proceed to rub it in their face," it's difficult to want to not see you as nothing more than a mindless troll.

If your kicks are totally coming via shadenfreude, maybe you should just apply electric shock to wherever your little nuts are, since I have doubt you have much to offer to the rest of the world.
 
While it does seem mean spirited to take joy out of what causes others pain, I LMAO at "(Diabolical laughter, throws smoke bomb, vanishes.)"
 
Shiek confirmed and Zelda Smash

Zelda's Final Smash has been leaked. Her Final Smash is the Light Arrow. The reason we know this is not her B move is because the background around her is dark and she has the "Final Smash aura" around her entire body and bow. This means the move is not a special move. As said in a previous update, we wouldn't be reporting on any of the leak stories unless we had confirmation, but this seems like its real.

Zelda's four specials are listed on the front of the card as "Din's Fire, Nayru's Love, Farore's Wind, and Twilight Change." The thing is, Zelda doesn't have a twilight change in Twilight Princess. The translation for the final Special move reads: "Twilight Change (Original Twilight version of Shiek transformation)" A rough translation says "Twilight version Seek Transformation". Seek is the Japanese version of Shiek, so there ya go. We have multiple translators confirming this.

about fucKing time, I was starting to get worried she wasn't going to make the cut
 
Surely that kind of thing must be reportable. The guy even trolls the Wii in the deals forum. Truly a master of the arts.

The game is done. The only way I could see a delay is if that disc shortage problem that seems to mainly be plaguing Europe is more serious than initially reported.

The Japanese date isnt changing for sure, given that they recently started running commercials with the date in it.
 
Green glow aside, Snake's final smash looks pretty damn good. How well it works, especially against lone opponents, will depend very heavily on the speed of the grenade and his rate of fire.
 
I'm thinking there might be a one-second delay from when Snake fires and when it hits. If there was any longer of a delay, then it'd be plain awful. If it was faster than that, then it could be overpowered. Not that that would be a terrible thing, of course, but I'm just saying.

Agreed. A US delay would be due to only some sort of supply error, or all of NOA's translators died of some ill fabled disease. It's not like they haven't done any work on the game up until this point and are bogged down.

Snake is going to be awesome, green glow or not!
 
This has been a pretty good week (overall). Hopefully they can end it well, too.

^ tonight's update.
 
i could not be happier that captain olimar will be in the game.

i had hoped he would be from the beginning but had given up hope.
he should be an amazing add to the mix. throwing pikmin around. to completely cover someone with pikmin and carry him away. oh man. i can't imagine what crazy abilities they are going to give this guy.
i hope that enemies will be able to kill each and every pikmin like killing the ice climber girlfriend. this is a perfect smash brothers character. adding a good amount of craziness to the fight.

and olimar's mighty punch. i hope it does more damage in smash brothers then it did in pikmin. so good.
