At least Super Smash Bros. Brawl has an actual release date instead of DNF's "it'll be done when it's done" excuse.

So . . . the release is on a Sunday?
How's that gonna work?

*Goes to Gamestop on Sunday*
"Brawl please!"
"Sorry, we don't get that in until Tuesday."

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Good point. I mean, not like release dates are pushed back. Oh wait.

Ah. Touché.

It's useless, no-one checks this thread before the site. Sure post a couple of the screens, but straight copying the update is idiotic.

I don't ever check the website and the only way I get news of it is from this thread, but that's probably because I don't have a permaboner for SSBB.

Ding. I forget to check daily, so when I browse these forums, I see what people are saying. "Oh, a new update."

I found about the latest DNF'ed here. Not the site.

I'm the other way around, I check the site when I get to work, and THEN head here to see reactions and other miscellaneous stuff later.

"Look Smithers, Garbo's in town!"

Edit: Stealing more scans from NeoCrap forums! Famitsu's given it 40/40.



It's as good as Nintendogs (WOW)!

Nice to see an actual Shiek scan. I wonder what Final Smash she could possibly have.

I'm staring at this for about 5 minutes trying to figure out how this shows that the game was given 40/40. I'm an idiot.

Ugh, there goes any hope of friendly play. If I beat my friend while he's using Sheik, it'll either be that my character was broken or that I was spamming >.< (or I could just avoid him altogether).

40/40 in Famitsu? Delay? Oh gosh, I hear the collective drop of jaws followed by angst and despair of the impatient. Drama.

Anyhoo, the delay doesn't affect me :D. My bro gets to Japan on the 3rd of Feb. No more delays please!

But at least in spite of this delay, when the Japanese get their release, they should at least give the US a demo so it could hold us over until our release. :|

To no surprise, today's update is Sheik.

To go with Zakiller2000's update, here's the screens :)

At least Sheik looks awesome, so it's a good thing. :3:

So tomorrow we can expect Sheik's Move List

And then Friday we can probably expect either

A) Another Zelda Stage + Music
B) Sheik Final Smash

Nope, her moves are already there if you haven't checked it... So is her Final Smash.

So I'll be content with the music update if that happens.

LoL My bad then.

So yeah, I'm feeling possibly another Twilight Princess style level

All the characters profile pages have been updated with their moves, BTW.

More than likely because the latest Famitsu lists them all so anything revealed in there ought to be in the dojo as well.

Holy eff, I really did think they were cutting Sheik out this time! Well that's a pleasant surprise. Am I the only one who would love to see a cell-shaded Wind Waker level?

So, with a total of 25 characters (as of Sheik). How many characters do you guys think we may have in this sequel?

Well at least we know that Charizard's Up Move is just a regular Fly move... Hopefully we can't hurt people with it or something...

I think you can hurt people will Fly somehow, since Fly is an actual HM techinque in Pokemon.

As for how many characters we'll have, the current ones I'm thinking about are:
Mewtwo/Lucario (one or the other)
Captain Falcon

Well I can't really think of any others at the moment that should definetly make it in. I wouldn't think we'd just be looking at 27 characters with this massive delay anyway.

EDIT: As an added note, Shiek's eyes look pretty hot in this style. Her needles also looks intensely long and sharp. It seems like her overall gameplay will be the same as it was in Melee, which isn't bad news I suppose.
