For Me:
Mickey Mouse Playable
Bugs Bunny Playable
Unique Peach (non-clone non-color) Playable
Post by: Adrock on November 01, 2007, 12:45:07 PM
1. Simon Belmont to complete the Captain N team (other Belmonts as costumes would be nice)
2. Palutena playable
3. Voice-chat for online multiplayer
4. Costumes with customizable attire
5. Character creation mode
6. Boss rush mode
I'll hope though I don't see a single one of those things happening. If one or more of them did, I'd be pleasantly surprised.

In any case, the Bowser stage needs to include the Koopa Clown Car somehow. I was really hoping that it'd be Bowser's match entrance intro thing.

There wasn't much evidence of Sonic besides the Olympics game thing and I'm not sure that even counts as evidence. It was just more obvious than anything.
Also, I'd love to see Viewtiful Joe.... but Mega Man still seems far more likely.

Derek Stiles from Trauma Center would be a megaton in my mind because I doubt anyone would see it coming.
Not only has he been on Nintendo platforms but he has ONLY been on Nintendo platforms.

Sora
Downloadable content for future updates allowing character, AT, and stage additions.
Post by: Spak-Spang on November 02, 2007, 01:57:29 AM
New Characters Available by Download to SD Card
Mega Man Playable
Bomber Man Playable
Voice Chat Added
DS Compatiability and DS game being created
Classic Controller Bundled in game/or even another Wiimote bundled in game.
An Announcement saying 50 characters (including hidden characters) are available in the game.
Costumes that give slightly different attributes to the characters (Kinda like clones, but better)
Gannondorf that can turn into Ganon as a final Smash and stay that way.
Music Downloads so that the game can always have the most modern Nintendo Music to play Savable on the SD Card.
Finally the big one:
Nintendo shipping this game with a hard drive and a new firmware update.

VJ3 as Wii Exclusive would be a megaton in and of itself.

Sora would be an absolute megaton with me.
Sora AND Roxas would be even better, but then the clone babies would cry.
Whatever. I guess they could do an alternate costume form of Sora that is Roxas. That would rock too.

Thinking like that will only get your hopes up and set you up for a huge letdown if he is not playable. Dont expect anything and everything is a megaton, in regards to third party participation.

Pale is my favorite staff member ever CONFIRMED.
Roxas WOULD be awesome~! Though I would be a little dissapointed if they just put in Roxas and no Sora. . . that sounds pretty realistic though considering the next KH installment on the DS stars Roxas. . .

A megaton update for me would be a completely unexpected third party joining the Brawl.
Capcom, Namco, Hudson and Square are pretty much in considering their relationship with Nintendo and the fact that fans want their characters in Brawl.
However, what other third parties are left? That's where the megaton updates lies...
Let's see, to me the surprising three would be...
- SNK: They are supporting Nintendo like crazy now, with Metal Slug Anthology being a launch title for the Wii, the Wii shop featuring Neo Geo games for sales, the DS games (including the infamous witch touching game) and the upcoming anthology games.
- Tecmo: Their support isn't as big as SNK's but its certainly there. Super Swing Golf was a launch title and a sequel is in the works, a Fatal Frame game was announced a while back (its done by Tecmo, right?), the Ninja Gaiden games are available on the VC and of course a Ninja Gaiden DS game is coming soon. I think they will either use Ryu Hayabusa or one of their Super Swing Golf games.
- Ubisoft: To be honest, the rumor about Ubi submitting four characters (Rayman, Jade, Sam Fisher and the Prince) for Brawl approval is so old that I think its not true. However, it would be very megaton if one morning we see Rayman's profile up along with a trailer featuring the Rabbids as assist trophies.
So in short, a surprising third party joining the brawl would be pretty megaton.

They're not even remotely "pretty much in." We're only getting one more third party character.

And since when does "Megaton" need to be something almost impossible? What ever happened to being pleasantly surprised over characters and things you actually like?

What Bill said. Megaman and Geno are on both Sakurai's list and on the Japanese poll so Capcom and Square are going to be represented. I agree that Namco and Hudson may or may not happen but you never know. I don't see them adding more than 5 third party characters but there won't be less than 3.

I remember getting verbally mauled in the face after suggesting that last year. "But Sakurai said...." Anything could happen.
I'd love to see Rayman or Ryu Hayabusa though if Snake's fake neck-snap move was a problem for some people, imagine what Hayabusa would bring to Brawl. Almost every move he has involves dismembered limbs. Also, if any Ryu makes it, I'd bet on that guy from Street Fighter.

Yeah, Hayabusa's a VERY M-rated character. However, they could base the character off the old NES games or the new DS game.
The Rygar guy could also work, unless he too is extremely violent.

If they weren't willing to base Pit on his 8-bit games (and thank goodness they didn't due to his current awesomeness), I doubt they'd do so with Ryu Hayabusa. Sakurai's team seems to be basing characters on their latest outings anyway (i.e. Link and Fox). Like you said, they could base him off the DS game, Dragon Sword, though by extension, that's just basing him on the 3D Ninja Gaiden titles since the DS game takes place between the original NG on Xbox and its upcoming sequel on 360.

I think it's the magnitude of the announcement which makes such a huge difference.
"Pleasantly surprised" and "WHOAMG!!11" are two very different things.
There are a lot of characters I like but would never expect to see them in SSBB: Alex Roivas, Phoenix Wright, John Raimi, Leon Kennedy, Zack & Wiki (would make a cool combo character), etc.
I think "Megaton" needs to be something you didn't expect and it happened.
Honestly, Sonic was a megaton for me because his inclusion was so obvious that I expected Sega to be the idiots that they usually are and not do it.

Especially since Sega kept shooting it down, saying stuff like "There are no plans" and "Mario and Sonic at the Olympics is a far more appropriate cross over project".

A MEGATON is an announcement that sells games and/or systems. Most of these don't qualify for that because they're not going to get anyone interested in Brawl (or Wii in general) who wasn't already planning on buying it. It doesn't matter how surprising it is or how much you want it to happen; the only thing that matters is that it expands the user base of Brawl and/or Wii.
To be fair, this thread was asking what everyone's personal megaton would be. I agree, for the most part, with your definition of megaton. So far, besides the announcement of the game itself, the only "megaton" announcements have been Sonic and Snake since their inclusion opens the game up to fans of those characters.
Post by: vudu on November 06, 2007, 07:11:56 AM
QuoteI'd add that a truly fleshed-out single player experience and online play are also game-selling features to a lot of people.

Everyone wants Ridley as a playable character, but to me he/she is a perfect boss encounter for the game.
Post by: Michael8983 on November 27, 2007, 01:30:55 PM
I think popular characters from Nintend-friendly developers like Capcom, Namco, and even Square are a sure bet.
If not as playable characters then AT LEAST as assist trophies.
I'm going to make a prediction right now.
Playable: Megaman. Pacman. Moogle.
Assist Trophies: Viewftiful Joe, Chrono, Dracula.

SSBB online will bring back quite a few nonbelievers.

Well I doubt any major publications will show it.
