Super Smash Bros. Brawl

[Jessweeee♪]

Ooh I heard there was a trophy and some other thing with Trace Memory characters! Is this troo?



OMG


...so I walk into my first period on friday, AND THE STUDENTS ARE PLAYING BRAWL ON THE PROJECTOR! I was soooo jealous ;_;

I haven't bothered buying it because I won't be ungrounded from my Wii for months xD

The main character of Trace Memory appears as a trophy, and there are some Trace Memory stickers.

I can take pictures of them, if you want.

The Dojo posted it's farewell today. Kind of sad, since we've been following it for 11 months.

Aside from the note from Sakurai, don't miss the actual update for today. Little bits of trivia. :P

But:

Also, there’s always a chance that I will need to update sometime in the future with some kind of announcement.

DLC confirmed for Brawl. :P

[Monol]

Krystal for brawl

[Evastio]

I guess now would be a good time to make an exaggerated (and sarcastic) letter expressing our thanks to the Dojo:

Dear Dojo,

We're all very sad to see your updates come to an end. Well, except for me since it means no more annoying Snake and Sonic updates.

When it came to revealing things about Brawl, you were always there for us (except on weekends, traitor). During those 11 months you were being updated, we had our ups (2 player solo mode updates) and our downs (certain characters and delays). Although at times you put down our hopes for things we wanted (like Marth and Ness) the good updates more than made up for it (like the Super Cosby Bros Brawl musi... wait. That was the Mojo. Never mind).

Also, even though we hated you for telling us about delays you made up for it by, uh, no wait. You didn't. Yeah, you suck for being the bringer of bad news.

We'll always remember you in our hearts. Unless of course we have amnesia or if we forget.

[KentaRawr!]

Speak for yourself on the Sonic and Snake updates.

[Shoeberto]

Watch this video and then play Brawl.

It's hard not to quote it all the time.

[Evastio]

Speak for yourself on the Sonic and Snake updates.

I did. For the first part of it.

The certain characters part doesn't necessarily apply to me. There're some people on EoFF that are still against the idea of certain characters being in Brawl (namely Ness, Marth, and Falco). Personally I don't agree with that. Falco is Fox's most reliable partner (Peppy is too old and Slippy is a little too clumsy. Krystal is also reliable but Falco's been there more for Fox than Krystal has, no offense Monol. They're like a Mario/Luigi duo.) and not wanting Ness and Marth in because they're clones of Lucas and Ike is just ridiculous. That's like saying Mario and Link should be kicked out because they're clones of Dr. Mario and Young Link.

On a lighter note, here's an interesting story of what a guy did with his copy of Brawl.

Also, here's another version of that SSBB Dancing Video that includes all the characters (Mr. Game & Watch's is extremely funny).

[Roto13]

Ike isn't even close to a clone of Marth. He has, like, one similar move and that's it.

My favourite bits of trivia:

The attack you can perform when climbing up from a ledge changes when your accumulated damage climbs over 100% or so.

Every once in a while Pit will utter "I’m done for..." as his death cry.

If you charge Marth’s neutral special move to it’s max in midair, Marth will rush forward while attacking, making it a useful recovery move.

Use Snake’s neutral special move, the Hand Grenade, and allow the device to explode near him. Snake will cover his ears.

If you hit the opponent with Snake’s side special move, the Remote-Controlled Missile, Snake will do a quick fist pump as if to say "Yes!" On the other hand, if you miss, Snake will do a quick pose to show his disappointment.

Approximately one out of every 6 C4 packs Snake uses will be a C3 butterfly explosive. The power of the attack is unchanged in these instances.

Brawl’s director, Masahiro Sakurai, provided the voice for King Dedede.

The Coin Launcher is set up so that there is a low probability of trophies appearing that you haven’t yet collected. By defeating little groups of enemies you raise the likelihood of new uncollected trophies appearing. Therefore, trying to be sneaky and bailing out without trying to shoot down missiles or enemies will only end up hurting your chances of completing your collection.

When summoned, the Assist Trophy Dr. Wright has a 1 in 10 chance of calling forth a massive skyscraper. The damage it does is appropriately massive.

If you attack the Assist Trophy Mr. Resetti, he will occasionally grow angry and cause an explosion. If you hear him yell "Quiet down, will ya? I’m talkin’ here! HEY!" or something to that effect, it’s your cue to flee.

If Mr. Resetti appears on a fall-away platform or a platform that moves off the screen, he’ll get angry with you as he disappears.

The Subspace enemies known as the Primid change their expressions each time you turn on the game. There is quite a variety of faces for you to discover.

[.:kerrod:.]

well i'm in australia and i would kill at least 2 people for this game (or maybe 3 if two were small children ) but anyway, i want the PAL version, so i'm not gonna import. my real question is: you're all giving out friend codes, but does only one person need to add the codes? because i have a wii and my friend and i tried to send messages to each other, but we had to add each other's codes before any interaction could occur (like, i had to add him AND he had to add me). I was wondering if it's the same with brawl, etc? because how can you possibly add each other when you're just adding random people? and on that note, can i play people from the US and such when this is FINALLY released?

[Roto13]

The friends codes are pretty much there so you won't be added by random people. Both people need to trade friend codes.

[Monol]

That story is so romantic! I love brawl even more now

Id disagree with the falco krystal thing evastio...but to each its own ey?

Kerrod lag or no lag we should play. I demand to be your first match

[.:kerrod:.]

haha YAY! i'm in, i'll pencil you in for 2012 when it's released here and im assuming we CAN play other countries...cos you're in the U.S.
so, out of curiosity, who do you main?
and do you want to exchange codes? or would you like to put off your impending ass-spanking until a while after it's released here?

P.S. although my sig is based around the MOTHER series, Ness isn't exactly my main, it's just that they went with the picture in the middle (which i find funny, and smurf anybody who doesn't though i am a bit bias seeing as i made it :rolleyes2) and Lucas is looking good in brawl

[Roto13]

Lucas is better than Ness is most ways. :P

As for who I main, when I want to win, I'm either Marth, Ike, or Pikachu. Otherwise, I usually put it on Random and just have fun with it. I kind of wish there was a random character switch, though.
