[Wii] Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Besides unlocking Jigglypuff and Luigi in Melee... Nope.

FELIPE NO

Well, it's only reasonable to assume that if they don't announce a particular character, there's a chance they'll be returning anyway, as a hidden character. I'm personally hoping that's how Sheik returns...

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Actually, I could see the update now for announcing how hidden characters
will be revealed:

"[GAME MODE] - A CHALLENGER APPEARS!

<Image>
"Eh? Is this another new character?

Not exactly. At various points during Smash, you will
come across an opportunity to fight against a hidden opponent,
who will join your ranks should you be able to defeat them!
Some of them are new and some of them are returning veterans.

For this update, we have decided to unveil Luigi's return to Brawl!

Luigi's silhouette!

And here he is on the Battlefield Stage, pitted against his brother, Mario!

<image>
I-Its an Epic Duel.

So, be on the lookout for Challengers when they appear, or you might not be able
to get all of the combatants! I wonder who else will appear?"

Jam it back in, in the dark.

^ I could see how that would work. They have been getting pretty specific with the game features lately. An explanation on how hidden characters work might be coming for sure.

That's totally how he'd say it, too.

Also, since we didn't get an update today, I'm going to do one of my own! 'Cause I know how much everyone looks forward to these things. There were a few Pokemon revealed a while back that we never saw on the main Smash page:

Kyogre and Torchic were seen in a game-play video during Nintendo's press conference event on October 10th. Kyogre flies in and blasts everyone with water, while Torchic just stands there and looks cute until it spontaneously combusts with all the fire energy the tiny bird can muster. Snorlax was apparently also sighted.

Here's Entei from an snapshot someone took from E for All earlier this month. His attack seems almost identical to the one he used in Melee. Resetti, true to form, shows no concern whatsoever about the giant fire dog about to blow the arena to bits.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Fixed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Haha, that's spot-on. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see an update like that.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

A somewhat useful update. Good to some smash users, I suppose.



It's all about how you can configure your controls to your preference when you enter your name. So if you want to have some really un-conventional way of jumping using the B-trigger and the 2 button, so be it.

Another great addition is profile and controller configuration transferable via Wiimote. So whenever you smash somewhere else, you always have your profile name and your control scheme with you.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I guess no one gives a damn about controls...

Anyway...



Widescreen support and Donkey Kong music.

Not much else to say.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

This is going to be a boring week.

FELIPE NO

YES. DK song has his GURNANT GURNANT GURNANT smiling sound effect in it, best song in the game confirmed!

Most amazing jew boots

This is actually an incredible update. The Donkey Kong track was arranged by Hirokazu "Hip" Tanaka himself. He hasn't worked on a single track in over a decade for Nintendo, and is currently the president of Creatures Inc. (formerly, Ape, Inc. a company jointly owned by Nintendo and HAL Labs). Simply amazing that he's come back to do this track for Brawl.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

For the music junkies, I suppose this is good news. I never keep track of that kind of stuff, but the track itself sounds awesome.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

HAHAHAHA

OMG that track seriously reeks of awesome! Do you think they'll have a traditional donkey kong themed stage?

Is this Bioshock all over again? o_O

...and I like the DK theme arrangement.

He did some musical work on Pokemon Channel, actually.

FELIPE NO

Oh man, borked widescreen? Surely Sakurai is fakeposting.

THe best line on the controls update:

Wow. I hate to say it, but we really have thought of everything.

NOT TO BRAG OR ANYTHIN'

Jam it back in, in the dark.

SIGH. This week's updates are really pushing the boundaries. What's going to come up tomorrow?

"In this game, your cursor is a hand. L-look! It GRABBED the P1 icon! Oh my!"

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I know they've got to stretch things out until February, but damn. Couldn't they just throw together some gameplay teaser movies or something?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Or characters for that matter.

Really? The GameCube game? That's pretty neat.

That DK remix was prety damn fantastic. Takes the edge off of that sub par Meta Knight theme.


Totally unrelated, but mad props on that Av/sig, Infernal. Easily one of the most entertaining games ever made.

Back to the meh updates, it's Wario's final smash.

IT'S WARIO MAN!!!



Wario is probably the only character you can normally control in a final smash. He has the ability to negate attacks and his midair moves make him fly. His special moves are also powered up. Oh, and don't ride the bike.

Other than that... <_<
