Nope, this WAS a worthwhile update.

This confirmed 2 things, that smash balls can be deactivated in the item switch and that music can come from any game, not necessarily franchises represented in the game.

True, but...

1. Did you really believe that there wasn't going to be an option to turn the smash ball off? I'm sure Sakurai realized that FS can annoy some players so he made the option to turn them off was available. Plus, the E4A demo confirmed that you need to pound on it before you can use it.

2. The music thing already happened in Melee. Both F-Zero stages had that one song from Mach Rider (or something like that..,). Besides, don't you always say that music updates aren't good because you are too busy fighting to notice the music? :P
The update was useful, yes, but its still filler material.

But hey, if you don't want those popcorn balls I'll take them!

Nope.  Music Updates never make me go sigh.  They are one of my favorite updates on the site.  This Song wasn't one of my favorites, but still a good update.  

And I agree it is good to know 100% Smash Balls can be turned off, and it is was a good description about what is going on with the Smash Ball logic and design in the game.

My prediction for Dec. 6 the same:

General: Subspace Emissary Update
Specific: Movie shown
Super Specific: Sheik's reveal through movie as part of Zelda.

Possibly Second Update.

General: Vet Character reveal
Specific: Sheik
Super Specific: Still a part of Zelda.

1. People were speculating that final smashes would be necessary for character balance. This throws that idea out the window.

2. This means that Ashley's Theme being in the game has less influence on her chances for inclusion than we thought.

It wasn't a character reveal, but these were two pieces of the puzzle for us.

Dec. 6, 2007 Prediction:

(General) Character moves
(Specific) Princess Zelda - Final Smash
(SuperSpecific) Considering how Samus operates I'm going to say that Zelda transforms into Sheik after a powerful blast of magic.

I'm being generous also. Sonic's final smash was revealed ago but I keep predicting Zelda instead even though I will likely end up with less points compared to a good chance at 12 with Sonic. Just a little tip for those who are hoping to move up in the rankings. I'd say GP's previous predicting of Dedede's final smash also has a better chance at showing up before Zelda.
Whoever said, "Cheaters never win" must've never met Khushrenada.

Date of infamy -- an infamous character.  It makes perfect sense.

Dec. 7 - Character profile - Ridley - shown fighting Samus.
Second update - Game Modes - Subspace Emissary update - Ridley's introduction.

Wow.  Khush is able to push another 2 points out.

Man, I got too wrapped up thinking we would get at least one really good update this week.  And yet nothing. I won't give up though.  

My prediction for Dec. 7 the same:

General: Subspace Emissary Update
Specific: Movie shown
Super Specific: Sheik's reveal through movie as part of Zelda.

Possibly Second Update.

General: Vet Character reveal
Specific: Sheik
Super Specific: Still a part of Zelda.

Wow. I was right about Dedede coming up. By the way Spak-Spang. I should have recieved 4 points, not just 2.

General guess - correct - 2 points out of 2
Specific guess - half correct - right move wrong character - 2 points out of 4

So, that means I should be ay 56 points.


This time I'm not so confident in my guess. The update tonight could be many things. But, I'm going to follow GeneralTraag's line of thought and go with an old game mode.

Dec. 7, 2007 prediction:

(General) Game Modes
(Specific) Coin Battle
(SuperSpecific) Pictures show Wario and King Dedede fighting it out. The Coin Battle mode is the same as in Melee.

2nd prediction:

(General) Items
(Specific) Assist trophies - Jill (Drill Dozer)
(Superspecific) Jill moves across the stage in her drill dozer damaging people she drills into. Picture of her injuring Wario.
Whoever said, "Cheaters never win" must've never met Khushrenada.
