Super Smash Bros. Brawl thread v2. wii want it now

Woo!

Soon we will know the final character roster! No need to visit the damn site everyday and get destroyed emotionally.

=d busts in through the wall OH YYEEEEAAAHH!!!

very very interesting read…one thing i’m gonna say is THANK GOD FOR SAKURAI. Especially after reading that Iwata would have done if Sakurai had said ‘naaaaah’

joined! The hedgehog is comin!

oh lord…someone got the game already? checks his watch it ain’t even the 31st yet!

I hope the big characters are viable in this game, but right now I’m totally undecided about who I’m going to play. Also, I hope they keep pushing the game back until summer so I don’t have to wait until break to play it while everyone is figuring stuff out about the game.

I don’t even have a Wii yet man, and I really don’t feel like camping somewhere to get one.

:shake:

With 4 Olimars, Pokemon Trainers or ICs.

I’m sorta undecided on who I want to use, probably Bowser, Meta Knight, and Pokemon Trainer before the inevitable unlock of Capt. Falcon.

I’ll join the group once my greedy little hands are on the game, then I’ll hand some ass kickings out.

Lmao, We should do a tag team of Pokemon Trainers Vs. the Olimars. Would be…chaotic to say the least.

didnt really check the updates until now. cant wait for it but ts damn hard to find a wii. lol at yoshi

Y’all make me so happy that I got a Wii at launch.

I’m happy I got my wii a year ago.

Lots of talk about a roster leak from 2chan (apparently not 4chan?) today. I’m pretty sure that despite the pictures of the character select screen and the disc, the leak is fake.

Here’s the pic of the disk: http://www.brawlcentral.com/images/news/2008_01_22(1).jpg

And here’s the description of the supposed “leaked” roster as well as the picture and video of the character select screen (with only starters)

A few things wrong with the leak:
*The Zelda select portrait is different from the one previously shown on the dojo (in one of the coop updates) and now has Shiek in the picture too. This might just be something they didn’t want to show us until Shiek was revealed, but it seems a little odd to me anyway. (Personally I prefer the select screen that shows Zelda & Shiek.)

*Some people on smashboards have said that the announcer in the video is the same sample used in melee, not a new announcer.

*The “leaked” roster includes R.O.B. as a playable character, but the NES R.O.B. has already been shown to be a part of subspace emissary, and the Starfox Rob64 was shown as a trophy collected in the coin launcher.

*My big concern is that though they took a pic of the supposed starting roster, no one has bothered to take pics of the previously unannounced characters, even though people know that THAT’s what would get people’s attention. If you have the final version and are unlocking characters, why only take a pic/vid of the character select screen before you’ve unlocked anything and not once you’ve got some more characters?

Now this roster could be legit, and I’m happy to be proven wrong, but I’ve seen so many fake rosters in the last month that I’d rather just wait til I see legit pics of the character select screen and the characters in action.

…seriously.

Also, that c. falcon pic is from melee.

Yeah, the picture of the big select screen is a mock-up of the supposed leaked roster. No one is claiming that pic is actually real.

…seriously.

There is no Megaman.

That is a lie. Someone just needs to leak this shit already. It’s great to see that De3 and some of the more interesting new characters are unlocked right away.

If I remember correctly, Sakurai (or someone that high up) already said no Megaman.

Lies. :shake::shake:

I think it was kenji infune. the creator of megaman

No more 3rd party characters at all would sadden me though. I was hoping for Megaman/Pacman/Cloud.

…seriously.

So who’s the odds on last Third party character?

Theres supposed to be three right, theres already two announced.

I can think of characters that would fit, but I really can’t predict what that crazy mofo Sakurai is gonna do. I’m kinda hopeful for Bomber-man.

Bomberman, Pacman, or Megaman would be dope.

Bomberman would be sick.

Actually, we were never guaranteed three. When asked about 3rd party characters in addition to Snake, Sakurai said, “Maybe 1 or 2 more at most”

So Sonic and Snake may be all we get.

…seriously.

Most likely candidates by far are either Pac-Man or another Sonic character.

The chances of anyone else are like less than 1%.
