The Official Super Smash Bros Brawl Thread

^ Ah, yeah I know. I worded that wrong, sorry.
And I thought after you did those starting minigames (shown on the site), you would have that permanent stage...? Or do you think it will be like Rainbow Cruise, where it "rotates" around the entire place?

^ That's possible, but if it picked up speed every "turn," then that would take the fun out of the stage, right? (Kind of like Big Blue... >> )

I like how zero suit samus's gun can turn into a whip. It's realy creative thinking from nintendo

^ Saw it just a second ago. Looks sweet. :D

I wonder if other "major" characters will have their intros this way...? That may explain Zero-Suit Samus's picture a long while back, when they first introduced this adventure mode (also had the picture of Pit with the goddess, an Arwing being shot at by the Halberd, and Link and Yoshi persuing the Halberd).

Today's update: More special moves???

<Diddy Kong: Special Moves>

Standard B: Peanut Popgun -- Hold B to increase its speed... but don't hold it for too long, or the popgun just may bust! Also, when the shell cracks open, you can eat the peanut inside to gain some health back!

Up B: Rocketbarrel Boost -- Charge it up before you use it, and you'll get more of a boost! You can even tilt the control stick to choose your direction. However...

If you're attacked, you'll lose your barrels... and they can sometimes go flying away on their own!

Discussion!

Today's update: A Newcomer. Or an old Newcomer. Whichever you prefer.

<Meta Knight>

"It's Meta Knight, whose introduction was delayed for some reason." Yeah. Nice one, Sakurai.

Sakurai got one thing right: That cape and sword combo DO excude coolness.

Discussion!

I reckon this game is going to overthrow Halo 3 and all those other games, because this is an award winner for Nintendo.

Twilight Princess was good, but that aside, BRING ON BRAWL!!!!

Are you ready to... brawl!!!!!

Images?I can't access it in school.

The Pokemon Stadium 2 stage is looking nice...
Wait... He said in today's post that "guests" would be appearing in the background of the stages, correct? Have you noticed he hasn't shown the Electric battlefield yet? Could it be possible... that Pichu is the "guest" for that stage, which is why it hasn't been revealed yet?
Just a thought.

I would have never guessed F.L.U.D.D. would make it on here! That gives the Poltergust some chance for Luigi, yes?
It's going to be interesting using Mario's new Down-B. And I noticed how he used something like his old Down-B from the trailers... At least he kept that. Now Luigi has a chance at being a bit more original in terms of a moveset.

having pichu would be awesome
he is always my choice in melee when i feel like pissing people off with his thunderbolt thing

Woah... Three part update today! All of which is related to...
MUSIC.

1st update:
<My Music>

With the "My Music" feature, you can enjoy the music of our many musicians any way you like. Choose freely from our diverse selection of famous songs!

The battle stages of Super Smash Bros. Brawl feature a diverse line-up of game worlds. For example, there are stages based on the Mario universe.

Basically, there is only one song that plays on each stage. But even among the myriad songs of the Mario universe, people probably have different favorites.

Plus, while there may be people who stepped into the Mario universe in the original Nintendo Entertainment System days, surely there are some who first experienced Mario on the Nintendo DS.
With that in mind, I think it’s a bit of a waste to limit that whole universe to just one song.

So we’ve prepared many songs and will let you choose the likelihood that any given song will be played.

For songs you’re particularly fond of, you can increase the likelihood those songs will appear. Then, when you brawl on that stage, the chance of your preferred songs being played increases.
Of course, if you want to, you can limit a stage to only one song, or make every song in the game equally likely to appear.

I’ve asked our reputable list of musicians to provide many songs for this particular game. But that’s certainly not because I just wanted to cover all these songs.

I’ve asked them to choose the songs that match their personalities and tastes!
Here you will find the best of the best—something you can very rarely get a chance to savor.
If your motivation behind your song selections is simply because you like them, then that’s just fine. Choose your settings as you like.

Just so you know, there may be songs from other games that are left as is, without any new arrangement.

Oh, and by the way, there’s an item in the game called a CD.

Regardless of which mode you’re playing, if you see one of these, be absolutely sure to grab it. If you want to know why, it’s because CDs are the way you add to your music selection.

-With this feature, there'll be no need for custom soundtracks... :D
