Nintendo Counts Down to Super Smash Bros. Brawl

[JKTrix]

First run through on 'Subspace Emissary': 86% clear, 8 hours 13 minutes. Everything on Normal. 32 characters unlocked. I finished it much earlier today, but then I fell asleep

It's worth noting that my 'time' before the final, huge stage was less than 6 hours, and my clear rate was around 60%. The last stage is huge. Spoiler for what you do in the last stageIt's structured kind of like Metroid (or perhaps Kirby) where you have to explore multiple areas, and you have to fight not only all the bosses you beat before, but shadow versions of nearly all the player characters. Once you beat it, before the credits, you get the game's theme song played for you with an English translation. About 'shoot the credits'There is 'shoot the credits' after Adventure Mode. Credits just runs a bunch of the video clips from adventure mode with the scrolling names. It's in Classic mode, though.

Stickers are more effective than I thought they'd be. You probably don't really need them for Normal mode, but I imagine they'd be very helpful on harder difficulties.

You can spend hundreds of coins very easily on the Coin Launcher. Luckily, the stickers and trophies are fairly plentiful. If you hold the 'shoot' button for a second before you let it go, the coin will shoot faster and fly over whatever holes pop up on the board.

I've been trying to use the Classic controller, but it's definitely gonna take some getting used-to. I used a GC controller through most of the adventure mode.

If you use one of the control configurations that involve the Wii remote, you do get some noises coming from the remote that you don't get with the GC controller at all. For example (the only one I've heard), when you choose a character, they would say something or make a noise through the remote, while if you're playing with the GC controller they don't say anything at all.

That's it, 'til more people get it.
