Yeah, I too loved those songs. Its too bad that the American version won't likely have the songs. I mean, if we get Japan only characters and stages we should also get some of the Japan only songs too!

This is significant for another reason:

Olimar is the first new Nintendo franchise character revealed since the announcement of Pit and Wario. This means that Sakurai is, in fact, digging into the list of what might have been secret characters.

And now my dreams for Brawl are almost complete.

2 out of 4 of the characters I wanted added to Brawl have been confirmed.

Pit
Olimar with Pikmin

What I love is Olimar is being designed exactly how I wanted him to be designed I am so excited.  And that new design for him has some great details.

Now, the last 2 characters I hope to see are:

Bomberman
Mega Man

I know, the likelihood of both are slim, and I know that supposedly Mega Man has been deconfirmed, but I do not believe that means the end.  Until the game is released there is always hope, for both my characters showing up.

But if I got 4/4 of the characters I most wanted in Brawl, I will go crazy with excitment.

I think we all saw this coming at the back of our minds.

It's Miyamoto's baby and one of the most recent IPs he's created. If you just put those two together, it makes a pile of logical sense.

And I love the Pikmin theme. There's a first...

Alright, I'm ready to wager a guess.  Sheik is back, but is her own character.  Zelda and Sheik each have at least a new vB attack.  I think Sheik will be unlockable, too.  I'm Basing this on the idea that we've now seen  the starting Roster, with 21 characters.  Sonic and Snake are unlocks, but announced because Konami and Sega wanted to make a big deal about it, and ZSS isn't going to appear on the character select screen, most likely.

That's my guess, at least.

Yeah, I remember Sega saying the same thing before Sonic showed up. I still think Mega Man is a possibility.

Oh the American version better get those songs.  It would be stupid for them to remove songs from the game.  The whole point of My Music is to add a wide variety of music for people to listen too and to choose what they like.  If most Americans don't like the Japanese songs then they can just set them to low on My Music.  For Nintendo to remove the songs pretty much defeats the point of even having something like My Music in the first place.

Plus it would be complete bull sh!t for the Japanese version to have more songs then the American version.  You'd think since it's 2008 now, companies would stop this crap about removing things from the English versions just to make sure the Japanese versions are the best.  If anything since Melee sold 3 times as many copies here in America then Japan, Sakurai and his crew should be ADDING more to the American version for being the biggest supporters of the Smash Bros series.

Ok now I'm just ranting but I like both those songs and nothing pisses me off more then when content gets removed from the English version of games.  It just feels like one big slap in the face.

It looks like a really fun Final Smash, though.  I like the idea of targeting and picking off certain people...  makes actual feuds all that much cooler.. and another reason why playing online just isn't the same as having people in the room with you.

I do not think they will remove the songs becuase they where both used, in my knowledge, in-game in Pikmin 2.

In fact I think that the SSB series has a pretty good history of not removing much from the NA versions of the games. The only two things that I can think of that were removed/changed are the sound of the beam saber and the locking of the Tamagon trophy, which was still in there you just needed an Action Replay to access it.

I think the main reason that these songs were only alluded to on the Japanese Dojo is because they where part of semi-promotional CDs that were only released in japan and they both went double platinum, but most people reading the other languages would have no frame of reference. Keep in mind that he linked to the Japanese version of Ashley's theme on the other language sites (as well as vice versa) and he posted the Devil AT who is from the same game as the sole censored trophy in the NA version of Melee.

I wonder if the reticule can be controlled by either the joystick or via pointing and aiming with the Wiimote? It looks like an awesome final smash though.

If it's going to be delayed, shouldn't you say "not soon"?

No, first you'll come to realize it's a soul-less game.  Then when the days are truly dark, you'll be hit with the official delay.  It's the delay announcement for a soul-less game that's coming soon.

Sakurai specifically said that explosives were okay, like the rocket launcher that's one of his standard moves.

I was curious about that too when i saw the dragoon, but now that snakes final smash has the exact same aiming functionality, I bet it does work like that

Anyone else notice more Snake fanservice in this update.  I'm guessing this is part of Nintendo's plan to appeal to more women.

I do not like this final smash for 2 reasons.

1) It makes everyone else itty bitty
2) It breaks the mechanic of being about being about to counter a smash.

I really don't see a downside to this one.  You are for Smash purposes invincible if you can't get launched so for that little bit you can pop out finish up.
