Nintendo Counts Down to Super Smash Bros. Brawl

[Skyblade]

(Looks at everyone expecting me to be disappointed)

I was actually hoping that I'd eventually get to hear the Halberd music. I'm glad I finally got to today. It brings back so many memories. It's just a shame that they didn't upload the whole song.

I'm also glad that they did two updates since updating Meta Knight's moves was a little redundant (at least I know how the Triple Dash Drill Rush and Dimensional Cape work now).

Also, has anyone noticed the incorrect date for Meta Knight's music on the Music Page?

Indeed. It reminded me so much of the SNES Kirby Superstar. Which is, really, the basis for Super Smash Bros. Seriously, go out and play the game. The controls are nearly identical, and there is even a Master Hand battle in that game.

And none of the full songs are on that page. It makes me sad.

I am soooooo excited for this gaaaaaaame.

I'm excited for this game, I love how the website is updated so oftenly.

Spectator! Now with Gambling!

Why limit the betting to spectator matches though? It should be an option for online matches as well!

Standard rules of games. Participants aren't allowed to take part in the betting. Keeps things honest. Wouldn't want people to throw games to get coins.

yes and no

I want some plain old boring levels, where I'm not more worried about the stage killing me than other people

THE JACKAL

Actually, once you get used to the stages, it won't be as much of a problem as you make it sound. I mean... sure, regarding the F-Zero stages, I agree with what you said. On those stages I also usually get killed by the stage rather than by my opponents. But on stages like, for example, Pokefloat you can just memorize where and when all the pokemons will appear. Then you won't have to worry about the stage randomly killing you anymore. I'm never (or atleast very, very rarely) stage-KO'ed on Pokefloat, Rainbow Ride, Corneria, the metroid stages etc. So it's not that bad with a moving stage, really.

That said, I do agree that some more non-moving stages wouldn't hurt. But hey, we got the freaking STAGE MAKER (aka god's greatest creation)!

[KentaRawr!]

Y'know, I wonder if we'll be able to create moving stages. That would be interesting indeed.

Looks like we finally get to see the Ice Climber's Final Smash. I don't exactly get how it works though. (How are you suppose to freeze people with the iceberg once it comes down? Is the iceberg suppose to replace the level or something?)

As for the betting, it's something that wasn't exactly needed but oh well.

hey, anything that means i could get wind waker link in the game works for me

Unfortunately, your last hope for that seems to have been shot down. Alternate colors this time include several alternate costumes. For example, Dark Link, Fusion Suit Samus... Unfortunately, looking at Fusion Suit Samus, you'll see that it is actually the Varia Suit with the Fusion Suit color scheme applied to it. While this combo looks awesome, it means that other alternates will work the same way, and cell shaded Link is too different stylistically from the more realistic Links for me to think he'll be brought in. Sorry, Craig.

Melee had Young Link in it, he could easily have a 'costume change' to fit Celda Link. Unless they make him a character all his own separate from/replacing Young Link.

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about how I'd like to see a Colour Edit mode in the game. Super Mario Galaxy has (small spoiler) Flying Mario, and it would be awesome if I were able to use the Flying Mario colour scheme in the game. If it wasn't included in the preset costumes, I'd have liked to be able to mix n' match the colours myself. Today's update seems like that won't be happening though, so I really hope they include Flying Mario's colours.

Sorry, Craig.

I was actually hoping he'd be a completely seperate character with his own move set including stuff from Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass, or maybe stuff from the other games with that style of Link like all the Four Sword/Minish Cap games.

But that doesn't seem likely either because I don't think 2 Links would make sense in Subspace emissary.

But hey, at least we got that Dark Link guy right?

Young Link was most definitely a clone character, however, and clones were supposedly removed from the game. And, if my reasons for it not being a costume swap are valid, then he can't show up.

Dark Link's ok, but I'd prefer him if they didn't give him red eyes. He didn't have red eyes in OoT...
