Got a Melee tournament today, maybe some one will be recording and I’ll post some videos
Also yeah, holy crap at the graphic upgrade
fuck a competitive level, if all levels are just stagnate battlefields with 3 platforms and all the stage changes and whatnot occur only superficially in the background, it’ll take away some of the games excitement. Its good to have a few levels like that but i wouldnt want more than a few, and even those id rather be like samus’s original level where lava and shit effect the game, and not just like melees battlefield where its straight up
i hope ALL the characters from the past 2 games return, i hate when a games sequel includes less playable characters then the original. Sequels should take whats already there and expand on it. I hated some characters like mr.game and watch and peach but rather than get rid of them they should just retool them, id be seriously disapointed if they got rid of any characters
that would be awesome i need to see how good players play cause i suck
also i cant wait for this one snake is gonna be awesome
more matches from a pretty recent tourney; these are just casual team matches:

They probably will, though. It’s just realistic. Some of the “clones” have potential, like Ganondorf and Roy and Falco (maybe), but others like Pichu and Dr. Mario are most likely fucking doomed.
However, you won’t have to worry about less playable characters than in the first two since I believe it was said there would be around 50, which is pretty much twice as many as in Melee if I remember correctly.
Roy is a clone of Marth? Aren’t they two of a kind since it’s not like Marth was on SSB64 or something…
Sorry man, the guy who was supposed to record didn’t bring his recording stuff D:
But I did place 4th using mostly Link, and a bit of Falco. I’m happy
wow 50 characters? thats confirmed? shit, they are reaching MvC2 like proportions, with that many characters they probably won’t eliminate any of the previous ones.
It would be hard for nintendo to come up with 50 nintendo made characters, they were already stretching it a bit when they put in obscure characters like ice climbers, with that many characters they are bound to start pullin characters out their ass, or puttin unknown characters from some 80’s arcade game in. Or alternatively (the option im hoping for) they’ll have to put more 3rd party characters in, hopefully some that fit in with the game.speaking of which, I wasnt particularly feelin snake, he seems to realistic to fit in with the game, id have opted for sonic since sega and nintendo are on such good terms or someone like diddy kong
either way, If they have 50 characters I hope they balance em and most of them arent just palette swaps i’d rather have 5 or so new characters with all new move sets than 20 “new” palette swaps
Roy is a Marth clone, but the only reason he IS a clone is because they put him in SSBM to promote FE6; as in, he didn’t have a fighting style of his own.
If you see Roy in FE6 with the Sword of Seals he fights VERY differently. As in, “uses flaming blade iai-jutsu” different.
Well, it was stated something like “No more than 50 characters.” But yeah, it’s gonna be awesome.
I’ve come up with lists of like 100 characters easily…so I really don’t think it would be too far of a stretch.
They said no more clones. So don’t worry about that.
did anyone notice how big pickachu and kirby are in the pictures showing that sunshine island stage… in 1 pickachu is as big as link or almost… what’s the take on that… weren’t they smaller in melee
Um, 50 characters came from those rumors of that recent Nintendo conference (I posted a link to those rumors here about 2 pages back) and as far as I’m concerned it’s a rumor and nothing more.
Though yeah under 50 is a good number (like 35… that’s under 50. 
)
Sakurai talked before on how they stuggled to get 26 characters for Melee. I really doubt he will just about double that number with 50… you never know of course but I kind of doubt it. And he did say that not every character would be returning so it’s not a case of just adding 24 to the 26 either…
Someone asked if Marth is one of the original 8 earlier. He was not.
Tomorrow’s update better be a character. And it better be one of the following: Simon Belmont, Megaman, Captain N, Erik the Swift, Terra Bradford, or Pichu. :nunchuck:
Yeah, Simon Belmont is on my list of OMFG I WANT HIM IN GAME characters. Having Konami’s Solid Snake just solidifies it, and the director wants a few more 3rd party characters in this game
I’m sold
Yoshi’s Story ending music up…
I thought this was a really cool update and more than I was expecting. At least we know that Yoshi is in it. 
YoSHI! eeeeeeeyyyyaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyooooooooo
Eeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyaaayyyyyooooooo
This game might have the greatest collection of music EVER collected!
If the Ice Climbers aren’t in it, I’m going to have to figure out a new main character.
( Pit perhaps? )
EEEEeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyooooooo!
Well Yoshi’s symbol is number 11, so I do believe that disqualifies the alphabetical theory I mentioned earlier. Oh well. It was a nice thought.
what a waste of an update,
honestly this shit is taking to long and is getting frustrating, especially when they consider stage music an update, they need to speed things up and start dropping big info like characters ,even though i bet they’ll do some bull shit like the next character update will be wario or someone we already know about, and more stages
