Eldin Bridge looks to be an awesome stage. It'll probably turn from day to night. Hyrule Castle in the background is a nice touch. I hope it rains occasionally.

It doesn't look like it's to scale. Not that I'd want a stage as expansive as Eldin Bridge was in Twilight Princess, but I was hoping for exact scaled stages.

You're mean, Arbok. ): It's just so monochrome. I hope it does have a day cycle.

I love this stage, it looks like they ripped it right out of Twilight princess. I really couldn't think of better Zelda themed stage idea.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #778 on:** July 05, 2007, 10:20:04 PM »

Is it just me or do the visuals look BETTER for that stage than it looked in TP? Anyway looks like a blast.

Sarail · « **Reply #779 on:** July 06, 2007, 01:07:48 AM »

Ya know, this absolutely has to be the best week of updates we have gotten thus far. I sure hope Sakurai can keep up this type of awesomeness.

Hey, finally a flat stage that has no edge recovery - well at least while there's no hole in the bridge. (aka you could walk off the sides of the playing field as in the past game&watch stage)

Should be good for beginners and tournaments alike (and for general play too)

Me either. Bridge of Eldin FTW, indeed.

I'm almost sure that the Zelda medley we heard won't be playing on this stage. I'm thinking there's another OoT inspired stage as well.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #782 on:** July 06, 2007, 01:53:11 AM »

This is a great level. They basically gave us a flat stage design used in tournaments and stuff, and jazzed it up. A terrifying enemy to evade in the middle of battle, a hole that forms and separates the bridge into two sides. Very cool.

Kenology: I agree with you that the Zelda medley doesn't work for this stage. I want to hear the boss music from the Twilight Princess battle sequence on the bridge.

I do believe this may have been the biggest and best week of updates on the Smash Bros. site. We got controller information, a great new level, Bowser, Giga Bowser...what more could you ask for? That is right nothing.

I find funny he mentions TP as a wii game but uses the original GC scenario

. Of course that was the right thing to do.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #785 on:** July 06, 2007, 03:56:09 AM »

But if we knew who the secret characters were they wouldn't be secret now would they?

Hmm? huh? Buh?

Do you know what secret means?

I for one don't want to know who the secret characters are until I unlock them. It was a thrill in the previous games, and I don't want that kind of thing spoiled while I'm reading tidbits on new stages and moves.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #787 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:29:05 AM »

You are aware that Sakurai said that ALL secret characters would, in fact, be revealed before the launch of the game, right?

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #788 on:** July 06, 2007, 05:58:52 AM »

Smash Brother: Yeah I remember him saying that, but I hope he has a change of heart. I know it was awesome finding Newcomers in the original Smash. Melee was pretty amazing too, though hidden characters were leaked on the net too quickly. It was still awesome to talk about and encounter those battles for the first time with little knowledge of them coming.

With Brawl and the posibilities of several 3rd party characters, I hope they keep several secret because it will blow the net away when they are finally discovered, and when you have to face them for the first time and are like. "HOLY SHATNER, Its Mega Man...they really did put him in!!!"

now how do I beat him.

Ceric · « **Reply #789 on:** July 06, 2007, 06:11:23 AM »

lol, I thought you where actually going to say Bill Shatner...

If they did decide to put Megaman in I would vote for Cartoon series Megaman. Especially since he can grab others powers on the fly. He just has to have contact with them for long enough.

UltimatePartyBear · « **Reply #790 on:** July 06, 2007, 06:19:42 AM »

If Sakurai demonstrates that he doesn't know what secret means, either, I'll simply do my best to avoid spoilers until the game's release.

I think I'll probably do the same, but that'll only be because I'll be too busy with other things as Brawl is coming out.

Luigi Dude · « **Reply #792 on:** July 06, 2007, 08:28:33 AM »

The thing is if secret characters are shown they wont be shown until at least a month before the games release. The whole point of secret unlockable characters is they're suppose to be a surprise and excite people.

Plus I'd like to know were you heard Sakurai say he'd reveal them all before the games released? I followed all of the translations from his responses to Japanese fans last year and he never said anything about revealing them all before launch.

Adrock · « **Reply #793 on:** July 06, 2007, 09:02:20 AM »

I remember reading that, but I never found out if it was confirmed as real or not. At least we knew the 40 characters comment and Ridley/WW Link/Bowser Jr. thing were confirmed bogus.

Once they start revealing secret characters, I think I'll try to avoid Brawl news. Finding out 1 or 2 is fine by me, but I really do want to be surprised this time. I wouldn't mind if someone listed how to unlock all the characters/stages without revealing what was unlocked.

Link please. What the hell's the point in making them secret if they're, you know, not?

Also, I think Samurai Goro should be removed from the first page, ESPECIALLY since he's under the section with all the playable characters. Also:

Oh, he's an assist trophy, isn't he? No wonder he looks so crappy. Sorry bout that.

Heh, he could be like Kirby except instead you grab the opponent (and maybe hit special attack). Either that or you get their power after KO that opponent and loose it when you yourself die.

Ceric · « **Reply #797 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:05:12 PM »

Yeah. I figure he get it through grappling someone or otherwise making contact with them for about 2-3 seconds. At which point he be vulnerable because he couldn't use his other moves.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #798 on:** July 07, 2007, 04:22:51 AM »

I actually wouldn't want Mega Man to copy abilities. But be able to have a Down B to cycle through like 3-4 different Robot forms from his past games giving him different projectiles. Then each projectile has a charged up variant form.

His other special attacks can be his uppercut, a Slide move, maybe a teleport, since he seems to teleport into each level of his games.
