I would continue that joke with Peach, but someone might link to Andy's horrifying site.


What is this site you speak of, I must know.  For research purposes of course.

His default costume would be the original, 2nd would be X, 3rd would be Legends and 4th would be EXE.

Most of the charactors in Melee had four costumes so this would fit Megaman perfectly.

I agree, out of all the third party charactors Megaman is the most deserving to appear.  Most of his games have games have appeared on Nintendo systems and his best selling and most popular games were all on a Nintendo system as well.  

Plus last generation the Megaman games on the Gamecube sold better then the Megaman games on the PS2, showing where the Megaman fanbase is.  Inafune himself has said that the Wii will be the best system for Megaman games this gen so hopefully that will also have some effect.

I can promise you Red Steel will bomb in Japan like all FPS do there.  The only way a non-Japanese third party charactor can get into Brawl would be for them to have been in a game that's sold many millions in America and Europe.  So it would be worth taking a risk that might anger the Japanese since that fanbase in the rest of the world would easily make up for it.  

The only two non-Japanese series that have that kind of success would be Halo and Grand Theft Auto, which we know have no chance in hell of appearing.  So unless Red Steel can gain Halo level success in America and Europe in this next year, chances of a Red Steel charactor appearing are very low.

The problem with Ubisoft charactors is Ubisoft games aren't popular in Japan.  The only third party charactors that are going to get in will be Japanese third party charactors since there's alot that are very popular in the US as well as Japan.  There are no none Japanese third party charactors that have the kind of popularity that appeals to all markets including Japan, since only Japanese third party charactors are really popular in Japan.

On the issue of Final Fantasy, this is why we need to be watching the Mario Basketball website very carefully.  If you go to the charactor page on the website, you'll see there's a third page but it hasn't been added yet.  Since it'll be the last page to be revealed, the charactors on the last pages are usually the big secret charactors that suprise people.

If Cloud is revealed to be one of those charactors, then I'm afraid he has a good chance of appearing in Brawl.  The requirement is the charactor must have appeared on a Nintendo console, and if Cloud is in Mario Basketball then he's offically appeared on a Nintendo console in a playable form and they can use that as a reason to include him.

Now Cloud is one of the last charactors I want to appear since I found him to be a very poor charactor but because of the huge popularity he has and how Square is milking FFVII for all it's worth, if there's a way they could get Cloud into Brawl they'd do it.



Let's just hope this doesn't happen though.  If there's a Final Fantasy charactor I'd like to see though, it'd be Setzer Gabbiani from FFVI.  He was one of my favorite charactors, plus since he fights by throwing cards he'd make a very interesting charactor in Brawl that'd be very unique as well.  

There's also the fact that he appeared in Kingdom Hearts 2 which makes him the only pre-FFVII charactor to appear in any of the Kingdom Hearts games.  Meaning he's the only Nintendo era Final Fantasy charactor to have appeared in a recent game that was very popular which could help his chances.  If Cloud doesn't appear in Mario Basketball then maybe Setzer might actually have a chance.  But I wont be getting my hopes up.

4008
What makes it more scary is it's probobly true.  On the website there's still a third page which will have more charactors.  And we know how Square has always loved Cloud and the huge fanbase he has.

Oh God, we're all doomed!

Also, pretty much every SSB character was playable in their original games; neither KK Slider or Mr. Resetti fit that, and the main character from AC is too generic (and customizable) to work either. I do think that it should have Balloon Fight-like representation, with stage music and items and all that.


Updating charactor designs isn't a problem.  Look at Pit, his last game was for the Gameboy and they had no problem updating him.

In the case of being playable, it's no different then the Pokemon charactors.  The main charactors in the Pokemon games that you play as aren't used in any of the Smash Bros games.  Instead they use the popular charactors like Pikachu and Jigglypuff since ever knows about them.  

Now me personally, I'm not into the whole AC series so I'm not hoping for an AC charactor but since the recent one has sold 3 million copies in Japan and done quite well in America also, the chances of an AC charactor appearing are very high.  

Plus if they were able to give Caption Falcon (A charactor that was only known for driving a fast moving vechicle since he's the main charactor of a racing series) a moveset, they're capable of giving any charactor a moveset.

Even though the Dragon Quest rumor doesn't sound right, the Wii probobly will get Dragon Quest IX in the future.  The Dragon Quest series is the most popular series in Japan and Enix now SquareEnix will only put it on the most popular system in Japan.  From everything we've seen the Wii is looking to easily win the Japanese market.  If the Wii becomes like the DS and just dominates sales in Japan over the PS3 over the next year then Dragon Quest IX will be announced for the Wii.

Sakurai said in one of his responses on the Japanese website that since 3rd party charactors are guests, they will need to be unlocked.

Even though with Melee, Nintendo didn't offically start revealing secret charactors until the game was released, I get the feeling they'll revealed Sonic is in the game sometime before it's release just to get the videogame world going crazy and create even more hype.

Considering Hudson is working with Nintendo to bring TurboGrafx/PC-Engine games to the Virtual Console, Bomberman has a very good chance to make it.

When Sakurai says 1-2 more most people think Sonic and Megaman, but when you think about it, Sonic and Bomberman would be more likely since Sega and Hudson are both involved with the Virtual Console.  Plus since Konami owns Hudson it would make the perfect connection between all the third party charactors.

I rented it, but never owned it.  I still feel like a complete idiot for not buying it when I had plenty of chances.  I wonder if it'll be on the Virtual Console, because as Nintendo showed with the Mario Advance games,they want us to buy all the Mario games seperately so they can maximize profits.

Of course I'd still download the NES versions as well since I'm the kind of person who likes having both versions.  But I'm sure alot of people would just download Super Mario All-Stars to save money, which would anger Nintendo.

NES - Christmas 1991
SNES - July 1995
Gameboy - Christmas 1996
N64 - Febuary 1998
Gameboy Color - June 1999
Gamecube - July 2002
Gameboy Advance SP - Summer 2003 (This is the only one I cant remember well)
DS - July 2005 (I bought it when they released the special blue version with Mario 64 DS bundled in)
Wii - Spring 2007

There's still several Gamecube games I'm playing right now and with Super Paper Mario and Zelda TP arriving on the Gamecube this fall, I really dont need to spend between $200-250 to buy a Wii right away.

I'll buy one in either Febuary or March for Metroid Prime 3 and Wario Ware.  Plus when I buy one I plan on just downloading as many classic games as possible for the first few days.

I actually thought of something else I don't want to see have to Smash Brothers.  It isn't bad enough to get me to stop buying the game, but I believe it will hurt the experience...and has a potential of happening.

Too many characters that are TOO similar.

Melee contained clones which were rather uneventful characters to unlock.

However, something else more horrible could happen.  Original characters that all play so similar in structure that it doesn't really matter who you pick.

Everyone is wanting every single Nintendo character they can think of in the game...but I believe a character should only be included if it can truly add something to the game.  

Some characters need to be unique and exciting boss battles (Ridley)

Other characters need to be axed because they would be too similar to exciting characters.  (Star Worf could be an example.)

While still some very unlikely characters need to be added because of very unique gameplay mechanics.  

Olimar is a great example.

And yet, some characters I am worried about their inclusion until Nintendo proves they will play differently than other characters...Pit, MetaKnight examples.

Don't get me wrong. I love the inclusion of the above mentioned characters...I just hope that the design team works hard to make them unique and play differently than all the other characters.


I dont think we'll have to worry to much since Brawl will have a longer development time then Melee had.  As we've seen with the games Sakurai's made, he's very talented and with a long development time he and his team should be able to make most of the charactors unique.  Plus the fact Sakurai has said they'll be reworking the existing charactors from Melee when they appear in Brawl, I think it's safe to say he's working very hard on this issue.

The Trident boomerang would be a great idea.  I think a good moveset for Ganon could go like this.

B (Fire Bats)  For this move he'll spin his Trident and Fire Bats will start appearing.  The longer you hold B the more bats will appear and when you release B they'll go flying around in the direction your facing.

Forward B (Trident Boomerang)

Up B (Bat Transformation)  His ability to turn into some type of bat would work great for a third jump.

Hmm, the only thing I cant quite think of is what a good Down B move would be.

Ganon should be the slowest charactor in the game if he's in.  I mean so slow that if he's running he'd be moving at the same speed as Bowsers normal walk.  But his advantage would be his A attacks with his trident would have a longer range then any other weapon on the game, plus he could create his fire bats for a great long range attack.

This would be a great way to balance him out.

TalkBack / RE: Sonic on GBA for 15th Anniversary
« on: June 23, 2006, 11:52:05 AM »
I think it's a great idea since I find Sonic 1 to be the best of the Sonic games.  It actually had a challenge to it and could be considered a platformer.  Sonic 2 and 3 while still fun games, were just rollercosters where you held right on the controller the entire level and watched Sonic run.  Only the later levels in Sonic 2 and 3 actually made the games exciting again but it doesn't help that I was bored playing through the first 75% of the games before getting to thoughs.

Sonic 1 on the other hand has never gotten boring.  The levels were designed in ways that your not holding right the entire way, plus there's plenty of traps and challenges that actually require skills to get through.  Which makes it fun everytime I sit down to play.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: New Tales game maybe announced for Wii
« on: June 20, 2006, 12:14:25 AM »
Well the big annoucement turned out to be just that Namco's going to remake Tales of Destiny for the PS2 and Tales of Phantasia for the PSP.  Plus their releasing a new Tales of the World game for the PSP.

So all it ended up being was that they wanted to milk the series with even more ports and remakes.

Here's the link

Well we shouldn't be expecting any big updates on SSBB to soon.  According to one of the translations from SamuraiPanda at Smash Boards, Sakurai says that when the charactor poll ends on June 9th which would be tomorrow, he'll be devoting his full time to development of the game.  

He says that sometime in 2007 when the game is more complete they'll give the game a real introduction and do something similar to what they did with the offical Melee website where he'll reveal one charactor every week and show us how they play.

Oh no, now several other websites including 1Up are reporting the rumor as actual news.  And they're source is the same LiveWii french site that Mario posted.

Now when I first posted this rumor last week my only sources were Smash Boards and Gamefaqs Smash Bros board but both boards after some disscusion decide the info was false and stopped talking about it.

The thing that everyone decided makes this false was the part where Ice Climbers and Game and Watch would be removed because they weren't popular.  Sakurai has said on the Japanese Smash Bros website that charactor popularity will play no role in deciding who stays or goes.  He also said that having all famous charactors would be boring and that having non famous charactors can be more fun.

I'm guessing someone at LiveWii most have been looking around the web and found this on a message board and didn't realise this was a fake rumor and decided to post it thinking they had breaking news.
