Well, to nitpick, there IS the option of using Japanese characters in Smash Bros Melee, along with the Pokemon Games IIRC.

"Zenigame" is what Squirtle is originally called in the Japanese versions of Pokémon games.

Hmm, seems odd they would have that specific name in Japanese while you have ICECLIMBER and MARIO, etc., in English.

Don't you mean Pokémon Stadium? :P

Gym, Stadium, same difference.

You're thinking about this way too much. It's most likely just three people playing as the Pokémon Trainer, each with a different Pokémon out. The other person is playing as Yoshi.

Well now it makes perfect sense. I guess I was trying to see something
more then was there, because it struck me as odd. (It stood out).

Yeah, I couldn't find it either. I tried pausing right at the start of where the Lylat Cruise was being shown in the second video. But either I wasn't fast enough or the guy that mentioned it was seeing things.

That reminds me, I forgot to mention this, but I looked through the other two trailers for the parts that featured that stage and I STILL couldn't find anything. A screenshot from whoever mention that would be helpful.

With the Dragoon in play, I wouldn't be surprised to see the chaos Emeralds being brought into play.

The only thing I can see that would even look close to a chaos emerald shape would be in the first video.

But thats the fan

On the right is a Fan, on the left is Lip's Stick (Which when struck onto an opponent, causes a small flower to grow on their head).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Hmmm... Your right, it is the Fan. I could have sworn that it Looked like a Chaos Emerald for a second.

FELIPE NO

Got some updates for you guys

January 7th, 2008
Item of Monday: Melee Stages - 2

Yoshi's Island


The steep slopes on either side are its defining characteristic.



That central platform screams "accident!"



Corneria



Battle atop the Great Fox!

Onett


The offensive and defensive struggles on the buildings of Onett return!



Whoa, whoa, whoa! Watch out for cars.



Brinstar

It’s the dreaded, legendary ocean of acid!



The rising and falling ocean of acid changes the field of play greatly



Rainbow Ride



Tour the course in this forced scrolling stage.



The boat sinks mid-trip and you embark on a roundabout tour!

This is amazing! Is this a lavish feast or what? I can tell you that for everyone working on this game, the amount of content has been surprising to say the least.

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

Bah to Rainbow Cruise. I could careless about that stage and I never was a fan of the music.

With Hyrule Temple, Onett, Yoshi's Island, Corneria, Brinstar, and Rainbow Cruise confirmed, that puts a lot of danger (consider them out) onto Great Bay (good riddance), Fourside, Yoshi's Story (good riddance), Brinstar Depths(bummer), and Peach's Castle (bummer).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, the only stage that seems to be of interest to me from these stages was Corneria and Venom (that is if Venom also gets profiled as well).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Corneria is the only stage I really like out of that group. Otherwise, I'm kinda pissed that they didn't surprise us more with the update today.

A new year should've started out with a bang. This update is only lighting the match.

And with Onett's return to the Brawl, wouldn't that kind of hint that Ness is still coming back for reasons that his game is still in here?

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

You do realize the game is coming out this month, right? I don't think they'll be giving us any huge spoilers any time soon. (Then again, I might be proven wrong...)

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

At least one character update, of any kind, would be nice.

The news of Ness, Falcon, Falco, Jigglypuff, and for god's sake, Luigi would do that website some justice.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well, the 200th update is coming up this week, so it's possible they'll have something of interest then. The 100th update was the confirmation of Wi-Fi support, though I think it may have just been a coincidence.

Not that today's update was bad, I'm glad to see other Melee stages returning, but it'd be really nice if some of the original Smash Bros. stages were remade.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

wait so how many metroid stages do we have now

How ya doing, buddy?

They still need to make a Metroid stage where you have to escape the spaceship/planet in 5 minutes or whatever. To anyone who's never played a Metroid game before that plays Brawl they're going to think that all Samus ever does is spelunk inside of volcanoes. It's like she's the fucking opposite of the Ice Climbers.

3 So far. The Frigate Orpheon, Brinstar (which's today's update) & Norfair.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's five if you include the SSB version of Brinstar and Depths.

Most amazing jew boots

Yoshi's Island - Eh, it's the best version of the Yoshi stages from the previous Smash games so welcome back. Hope it comes with the SMB3 music.

Corneria - Meh, I never liked the Fox levels in Smash. You were always battling on top of Great Fox which I guess is the only way they can classify Fox levels from other levels.

Onett - Never having played an Earthbound series title, this stage has been alright. I love seeing the cars smash my opponent and then that charcter ricochets off a house and off screen. Classic.

Brinstar - Fucking A, Brinstar is back. It's also safe to say that the awesome rock track is back as well. It is definitely one of my favorite levels from Melee. Nice move, Sakurai.

Rainbow Ride - Ugh...no, just no. Poke Floats is awesome, but this one I don't like so much.

So in addition to those, we have Hyrule Temple returning as well. That's a pretty good selection of stages, we're up to 25 that have been confirmed. Now they could spoil us and bring back Mute City, Super Flat Zone, and Poke Floats. XD

Oh man, I went back to the Hyrule Temple map and listened to the music they came up with it that has Great Temple in the beginning and then goes off to the Temple music I love so damn much. That's something else I'm excited about in this game, the music. February 10th can't get here soon enough, dammit.

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

From what I read at smashboards Sakurai is bringing back one stage from each major franchise. I can see Fountain Of Dreams being one of them. I'm hoping Saffron City and Big Blue also return.

As for new stages this is what I would like

Mushroom Kingdom 3
Bowser's Castle
Luigi's Mansion
Any of the Mario Galaxy levels
Float Islands
Casino Night Zone


Here's the music I'm hoping for also

I'll be lucky if even a quarter of these get in.

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

Is it me, or is this game still not able to be preordered?

Most amazing jew boots

It's just you.

Where are you preordering from, anyway? As far as I know, places like Gamestop, Toys R Us or Amazon have been accepting preorders just fine.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Miniface's journal is awesome.

Sorry to burst your bubble. But if Brinster is returning, then so is the theme from Melee.

Zeta..didn't they recompose the song from the Temple stage which was also a returning stage from Melee

Well you never know they could have some alternate music like they did for some of the stages in Melee.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Man, I understand that more doesn't always equal better, but I was hoping they'd significantly increase the number of characters for Brawl. I'm not a hardcore smash player and just play with friends and it gets boring after a little bit when you run out of characters to play. Still looks to be shaping up well though.

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

^I'm pretty sure there will be plenty more characters. I think we just have to accept that we won't be getting any new characters updates until after at least the japanese release date. More possibly not until it's released everywhere else.
