Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Gen. Discussion & Info

[quote name='Zen Davis']Apparently the single player mode takes 240 hours to run through with all the characters.[/quote]
And to think it took me 2 years to get to be 10 trophies away from completion in melee...

I will be working on Brawl nonstop all year and I still won't finish it.
 
[quote name='Zen Davis']Apparently the single player mode takes 240 hours to run through with all the characters.[/quote]Holy fuck, that is crazy, we are talking WoW commitment here to get everything :lol:
 
I'll finish it....in 2020. I mean I haven't even finished RE4 WE yet. Or SMG or Z&W or Elebits...the list goes on. I play half games and then come back to them all the time and play bits and pieces.

oh ill just translate everything

·some figures will appear as assist trophies if you gain them

· A boss in Submissary is from the fire emblem series. He does not fight but he summons monsters.

· Boss rush mode after clearing Submissary.

· You will need 240 hours to clear submissary with every character available.

· Bowser, Dedede and Wario also appear as bosses in the submissary mode.. they are beeing mind controlled

· If you have a save data of ssbm you will get special trophies, BGM etc.

· same with super mario galaxy and some other wii games
 
[quote name='Zen Davis']Look up.[/QUOTE]


ehh it doesnt seem like a reliable site, though I could be wrong. I will wait for something a lil more official before a i request 10 days off from work

[quote name='Zen Davis']· A boss in Submissary is from the fire emblem series. He does not fight but he summons monsters. [/quote]Hmm... the only prominent summoner-ish characters in the recent FEs have been in FE10.
Izuka, Lehran, and Ashera
.

I may have caled it already, but I'm gonna do it again. When you get to the last boss in Emissary, you're gonna have a character select screen with all the characters, just posing and lookin' badass, right before you fight El Last Boss.

Really? Nice. It would be awesome if having a SSBM save got you one or more free golden hammers.
 
Now is Nintendo's chance-they need to make it so having a melee memory card in when you turn on brawl not only give you stuff in brawl, but also the missing 3 trophies in melee! :pray:
 
48 characters in the game.

Japanese Newspaper Translation

My translator gave me a summary of that the image says. Here's what he had to say: The top paragraph simply says that compared to Melee's 25 character roster, this time around Brawl will have 48 characters, nearly twice as much as Melee.

The next paragraph talks about Snake being included in the game and how it's sort of a crossover in fighting from a different series and not just Nintendo. But it mentions he was in a similar crossover fighting game a while ago called Dream Mix. Then it mentions Sonic and how he's also in a Nintendo/Mario game (Olympics). And Lucas is mentioned as he was going to be in Melee, but because the game didnt come out for the GBA in time, he wasn't in Melee.

We're not even sure if this image is real of rake, but that's what the text says. Supposedly, this image is from Oita Godo-Shinbun, a Japanese newspaper.
 
48 characters, huh? That would be quite satisfactory. I'm sure there are quite a few clone characters in that number, if it's true, but 48 still leaves room for several more unique characters, I imagine.
 
11 days until Brawl is out in Japan....and I can't find a cheap Used Wii anymore! X(

And I saw TONS of them for 15,000-22,000 yen (about $145-210) last month. :shock:

*sigh* Maybe I'll just pick up a new one..
 
[quote name='MarkMan']That article is fake. 100%[/QUOTE]
Agreed. The translation has nothing to do with what's really on that paper.
 
You know what I just realized? I realized that my expectations for this game are higher than pretty much any other game before. I just realized that my single greatest fear with this game is that it will somehow incorporate Shadow the Hedgehog.

I think that's a good sign.

I didn't think used Wiis even existed in the Japanese market. I always assumed Japan has the same supply issues the U.S. does. Or did you mean your local stores had an unusual surplus off Wiis?

That is a good sign. I also have almost unparalleled expectations for this game.

I think my greatest fear is that the game will somehow incorporate Tingle. Well, he was in Termina Bay, and that was one of my favorite stages in Melee. So if they bring that stage back, or have him in another stage in a similar fashion, I'd be okay. But if this game has a Tingle assist trophy, or *shudder* a playable character, I'll be irritated.

Actually, now that I think about it, there is one way (and only one way) a Tingle assist trophy could work. When he pops out like the crazy, startling fairy that he is, any nearby players can't help but continually attack him for the entire time that he is on the field, thus leaving the players open to attack by the person who used the trophy. He'd be like the SSBB equivalent of WoW's Target Dummy. It's the only logical way to do things.

Yeah, that would work.

[quote name='The Crotch']They let him exist in the first place. No more benefit of the doubt for them.[/quote]
The took Knuckles' personality, beat it to death, and gave it a gun. What could go wrong? Oh wait...

And to think I used to like Sonic... *cries while playing Sonic Mega Collection*
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']I think that Sega is smarter than to let Shadow sneak his way into the game.[/quote]
I'm sure Sonic will have a Shadow color scheme.
 
[quote name='Kaijufan']I'm sure Sonic will have a Shadow color scheme.[/quote]

He'd still be Sonic, though. Which would make it okay.

Which reminds me: this game should have Mr. Game and Watch style Paper Mario and 2D Sonic available as characters. That would be fun.
 
^I don't think a 2D Sonic would be necessary, especially since I don't want to see more then 1 playable character per third party franchise, but I would love to see Paper Mario as a playable character.
 
Since there isn't anything else to do, why not have everyone post their ideal Brawl rosters?

Mario Series:
Mario
Luigi
Peach
Bowser

Yoshi:
Yoshi
Baby Mario / Baby Luigi (like the Ice Climbers)

Link
Princess Zelda/Shiek
Ganondorf
Wind Waker Link

Donkey Kong:
Donkey Kong
Diddy Kong
King K Rool

Metroid:
Samus/Zero Suit Samus
Ridley


Pokemon:
Pikachu
Jigglypuff
Pokemon Trainer
Mewtwo
Lucario

Kirby
Meta Knight
King Dedede

Star Fox:

Krystal

Earthbound:

Olimar
Ice Climbers
Captain Falcon
Mr. Game and Watch
Paper Mario
Animal Crossing Character (Villager or Tom Nook, I'm not a huge Animal Crossing fan)

Out of Left field obsecure character or two (maybe the main character from Startropics, I'm sure people can think of someone better)

Third Party Characters:
Snake
Sonic
Leon S Kennedy (Resident Evil 4)
Sora (Kingdom Hearts)

Edit: Thanks to the Crotch for reminding me of a few characters I fogot to add.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']I think it'd be both funny and lame to put R.O.B in the game in some fashion. I wouldn't put it past Nintendo.[/quote]
I believe he is an enemy in single player.
 
[quote name='Kaijufan']I believe he is an enemy in single player.[/quote]

Yeah, he was definitely featured in one of the first videos from the single player mode.


Also, I think there needs to be a little more Earthbound/Mother love. Another playable charater, or at least have Pokey as an boss in single player.
 
[quote name='Kaijufan']Since there isn't anything else to do, why not have everyone post their ideal Brawl rosters?
[/quote]Man, oh man, do I ever have things I should be doing instead of this. Important things, too.

First off, I want every single character from Melee back. New characters after that?

Mario|
Geno
Paper Mario

Fire Emblem|
The Black Knight
Hector
Caineghis or Skrimir (Think about it - it would be awesome)

Metroid|
The Last Metroid (AKA, "The Infant Metroid", "The Baby Metroid", etc. This series is really lacking in characters, y'know?)

Donkey Kong|
Cranky Kong

Zelda|
Wolf Link
Wind Waker Link

Chibi-Robo|
Chibi-Robo
That toy robot superhero guy.

Other|
Miis

Third Party (Yes, I know Square owns Geno - shut up)|
Viewtiful Joe
Kain (FFII/IV)
Zack & Wiki
Travis Touchdown
 
^The Wolf Link in your post made me think of some other characters I was considering the other day. I'll add them to my original post.

Kain would be a cool character, and Final Fantasy IV is my favorite Final Fantasy

I'm not sure how a Metroid would would work as a character.

I hope Cranky Kong at least makes it in as an assist trophey.
 
Speaking of Sonic games and Shadow, I think Sega should retcon all but 90% of the Sonic Universe. It's too cluttered with clones and characters nobody cares about. The series has really hit the floor. I think it needs a franchise reboot, and the best way to do that is concentrate on gameplay and Sonic Vs. Robotnik endless struggle. Nintendo's has already used this successful formula for years with Mario Vs. Bowser (with a few deviations in between). It will never happen though because a lot of developers seem to not remember how to make a good Sonic game at Sega.

Here's my list of wants for SSB characters:

Mario:

Wart
Tatanga
Fry Guy

Metroid:

Ridley!!!

A lot of people did many of the characters I want, so on to a more interesting list.

Third Party Randomness ... I wanted to be diversified:

Auron
Dark Knight & Paladin Cecil
Tommy Vercetti (from my favorite GTA game)
M. Bison
Magus (CT)
Chris Redfield
Tyrant or Nemesis
Sigma (MMX)
Gaia (BA: Toshinden 1 boss)
Ryu H. (Ninja Gaiden)

[quote name='Kaijufan']I hope Cranky Kong at least makes it in as an assist trophey.[/quote]Well, he made it to "silhouette in the background" in Melee. I wouldn't be surprised.

Just pretend that Amy, Shadow, the name "Eggman", Bigs the Cat, etc. never existed. Just start everything again from the mid-Saturn era.

[quote name='opportunity777']Ridley!!![/quote]Actually, this is one that I don't want. It would just be weird to have Ridley shrunk down so much to fit in Brawl.

[quote name='opportunity777']Auron

Chris Redfield
Tyrant or Nemesis

Ryu H. (Ninja Gaiden)[/quote]I was at least keeping mine realistic... though I forgot about Mega Man. And Max from Advance Wars.
 
I'd like to post the list but I can't. If someone else leaks it before me, I'd gladly confirm it though. lol. But I really wish there was some more iconic characters from 3rd party games (like Solid Snake)...

You're going to have people making random guesses for you to confirm or deny.

At least we won't hear anything about WW Link, Ridley, and Bowser Jr., what with that old rumor being shat on what, how months ago?

Do you work for Nintendo, or did you happen to get the game early somehow?

Just curious as to how you can make such a claim.

Has anyone here played Sonic Robo Blast 2? It's a fan game, and it's in 3D, but it's better than Sonic Adventure I'd say.

And WTF is up with "Eggman"? It seems like after he got that name he stopped with the evil plans and started just making easily defeatable situations.

I know exactly what I'm saying... And I won't confirm anything or deny anything in here, I don't want to start a shitstorm of angry Nintendo employees hawking the forums like they do other ones...

No I don't work for Nintendo BTW.
