The way I see it is they'll probably release the original Metroid released on the same day as Metroid Prime 3.  You have to remember that Nintendo included the original Metroid in both Metroid Prime and Zero Mission, and so releasing it again on the same day as Prime 3 just seems so obvious.  Plus it wont harm Primes sales since the original Metroid is so horrible most people will stop playing it after 5 minutes anyway.

Considering this game is Nintendo's third biggest game of the year behind only Mario and Smash Bros, there's no way it's going to be released in limited quality.  Even Metroid Prime 2 sold over 1 million copies, and considering Nintendo says they want this game to do much better then Prime 2 did, there's no way they'd ship less copies.

If an EB employee tells any of you this game is going to be limited, I suggest you FALCON PUNCH them right in the face for being a no good dirty liar.

Actually they treat the handheld's like crap as well.  Just read my old topic related to this matter here.

Even though it's the Nintendo audience and the GBA and DS that have been keeping the Castlevania series alive over the last several years, IGA says that the Sony audience is where the real fanbase is at and that us Nintendo fans are all young kids that are scared of Ayami Kojima artwork.

To Konami, anything that's not a Sony system is pretty much second rate and not even worthy of their time.  Of course after Metal Gear Solid 4 bombs horrible because the PS3 is pretty much a dead system and everyone at the company losses their shirt, maybe then they'll rethink their policies on who to give support to.

Marth's moves were from the Fire Emblem series.  His move set was a combination of attacks different sword users used in all the different Fire Emblem games.  Just because he didn't have anything big and flashy like Aether doesn't make him any less true to his series then Ike is.

I was right, it was a character related update tonight.  Well it looks like Ike is the replacement for Roy with his standard B being pretty much the same, but his Up B is different and looks sweet.

Plus I like how Sakurai says Heavyweight characters will have moves where they wont flinch if hit.  It looks like Smash_Brothers dream of a much improved Bowser will be coming true.

I think the problem with Dewy might have been poor advertisement on Konami's part.  Now I don't live in Japan but when a game sells that low, something has to be up.  It's like last gen when companies would quietly release their Gamecube titles with little to no advertisement so no one even knew the games existed.  Then they'd go on to blame Nintendo for the games failure, even though it was the Nintendo fans that actually bought the game because they were the ONLY people that knew the damn thing even existed in the first place.

I'm guessing tonights update is going to be either a character related update or a music update.  That should get people more excited then item ones do.

Who cares what people expect, the characters aren't supposed to be 100% accurate.  If that was the case then Ganondorf wouldn't be playable because only the Master Sword can hurt him which means he should be invincible against all other character that aren't Link.  Or Caption Falcon shouldn't be in Smash Bros since we never play as him outside of his racer in the F-Zero games.

Plus shrinking down Ridley doesn't affect his character one bit.  It's Kraid who was all about size in the Metroid games, not Ridley.  Ridley fought by shooting fire balls and other energy projectiles, swinging his tail, slashing his claws, and charging at you.  Guess what, he would still be able to do all of that even if he was smaller.

The Gameboy Advance is just has much of a console as the NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube and Wii are.

Says who? You? I hate the fact that people on the Internet spout crap as fact. You have no idea what Nintendo plans on doing with 3rd party characters and the fact that you like a character does not make them a likely candidate.


How is what he said crap?  Out of all the third party characters Sora has a much better chance of appearing then many others.  He's a well known character from a very popular series and his game Chain of Memories on a Nintendo system sold over 1 million copies which is much better then Snakes Twin Snakes for the Gamecube which couldn't even hit 500,000 worldwide.

If a Square Enix character appears in the game then Sora has the highest chance of being that character because he's the most popular Square Enix character currently that's appeared on a Nintendo system.  Unless a Final Fantasy VII or X remake is announced for a Nintendo system before Brawls released then I'd put good money on Sora being the Square Enix character IF a Square Enix character was to appear.

Popularity is one of the most important factors for determining who's going to appear in Brawl, and so it's only natural that the most popular characters from a third party company are going to be the most likely candidates if that company was to have a character included in Brawl.

That's no problem, that's what they did to Bowser.  Look at how big Bowser is in the Mario games.



Yet they're easily able to shrink him down to a playable size while still being big and powerful looking.




All they have to do is make Ridley Bowsers size and he'll work just fine.

General Gaming / RE: Rockstar has a new game called IV

Well Nintendo has now won this holiday season easily.  This pretty much kills the PS3 this year but it's also going to hurt Microsoft big time.  They needed this to go along with Halo 3 this fall in order as a combination that would be a sure killer app system seller.  But now all Microsoft has is Halo 3 and that's coming out in September, two months before the holiday rush.

Now I'm sure Halo 3 will get good sales in September and October but when November and December come around it's hype will have died down and without GTA to help them, Mario Galaxy and Smash Bros are going to be the dominate force this holiday.

I'm pretty sure Ike will be playable from the start.  Sakurai probably put the Challenger Approaching sign there because this is the first new character we've seen since E3 2006.  In other words, it was just Sakurai being funny on the main page, because if you look at Ike's character page the sign isn't there at all.

Yeah, I get the feeling Marth will still be in.  The fact that he's the icon of Fire Emblem in Japan is what I think will keep him in the game.  According to what I read years ago the reason Marth was put in Melee was because there was such overwhelming request from the Japanese fans to have him in.  Even though Smash Bros is more popular in the rest of the world then Japan, I don't really think Nintendo would really take a chance to anger a percentage of their Japanese Smash Fans.

Plus Sakurai said in one of his responses that they wouldn't include any Japan only characters, but then he added since the Fire Emblem characters (Marth and Roy) were so well received by the rest of the world there might be an exception.  This leads me to believe that he might keep Marth in the game as well.

Of course poor Roy's as good as gone.  The best he can hope for is to appear as an Assist Trophy, which I could see Sakurai actually doing.

3771
For anyone that doesn't know, Ike is the main character of Fire Emblem: Path of Radience for the Gamecube and returns to become the main character for the second half of Goddess of Dawn for the Wii.  Ike is my favorite character from the Fire Emblem series.  I predicted him to be in long ago but to see him officially just makes me beyond excited.  



I think I just found the character I'm going to play as first.

3772
OH F*CK YEAH BABY, IKE IKE IKE!!!

Oh sh!t this is the greatest update ever.  I told you guys he would be in.

Ok, I've decided that I'm going to see it later tonight so I can finally form my opinion.  Of course because of my hate for what the show has become, I admit I'm going to have a huge bias when I see it.  If it's good it's going to have to really impress me then.

62. (Wii, Nintendo) Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn - 153,397


I'm surprised no one is mentioning this.  Fire Emblem on the Wii has now sold around the same as the it did on the Gamecube in Japan.  The difference is, Fire Emblem for the Gamecube made up it's entire sales it's first few weeks and then died.  The Wii Fire Emblem on the other hand had lower sales it's first several weeks but has been hanging in there for the last several months and has now reached what it's Gamecube counterpart has.

This is a perfect example of how it looks like Wii games will have great legs in Japan.
