Super Smash Brothers Brawl
This is Jimothy.
This is the official thread for the Wii game Super Smash Bros. Brawl, debuting December 3, 2007. Sakurai is working with all his might, so please wait just a little longer! Here is where you can discuss possibilities for characters, stages, items, etc. that may be included. We will also be discussing Sakurai's blogposts, updated every weekday on smashbros.com
Please don't argue about casual play and tournament play. I think most people are tired of it. Go ahead and poke fun if you must.
Last year Sakurai allowed Japanese fans to send in character and music suggestions, as well as ask questions about the game. SamuraiPanda's translations of these letters and responses can be found here:

This is a precious item, indeed.
These characters have been confirmed as playable:
Mario
Link
Pikachu
Kirby
Samus*
Zero Suit Samus*
Pit
Meta Knight
Wario
Snake
Fox
Zelda
Bowser
Donkey Kong
*(Sakurai, paraphrased) "Under certain conditions, Samus will remove her suit." Take that as you will and stop arguing.
There are also several stages that you can battle on. You may find that they are some of your favorite game locations!
Battlefield
Delfino Plaza
Yoshi's Island
Lylat Cruise
Bridge of Eldin
Smashville
Shadow Moses
Mario Circuit
Angel Land
Halberd
Pokemon Stadium
Some FE castle
Items add a little more hectic feeling to the match. The Smash Ball is an item that unleashes the Final Smash, a very powerful move. Bowser's Final Smash, for instance, is the Giga Bowser Transformation.
Smash Ball
Gooey Bomb
Super Scope
Cracker Launcher
Pokeball
Crates and Barrels
Banana Peel
Assist Trophy
Bumper
Pokemon:
Groudon
Goldeen
Chikorita
What’s an Assist Trophy?! Basically, they’re guest characters separate from Smash’s playable roster! Take the capsule and hold it high!
Hammer Bro
Nintendog
Samurai Goroh
Dr. Wright
Also, some pretty cool people are making music for this game:http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/music/music01.html
There will be four methods of controlling the game (all with customizable button configurations), so choose your favorite:
Wii Remote (on its side)
Wii Remote + Nunchuk
Classic Controller
GameCube controller
This is dangerous. It's a little risky.
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, snoop around the site and check the information on the series icons. You'll find that they all have numbers attached to them. From this, we can gather that there are at least eighteen series represented in this game:
1.Smash Brothers
2. DK
3. StarFox
4. Kirby
5. F-Zero
6. Metroid
7.
8.Pokemon
9.Zelda
10. Mario
11.Yoshi
12.
13.
14.
15. Animal Crossing
16. Wario
17.
18. Kid Icarus
I will be updating the thread periodically, but if I can't make that happen, I apologize.
It's enought to make a guy cry at the end.

I mean really confirmed confirmed?
Or is it still at the pretty solid guess stage?
I was planning on that, but I don't have time right now. Trust me, I think the OP is due for a rehaul, but it'll have to wait a bit.
It's about as confirmed as the end of the world is confirmed by tinfoil hat heads.
So indefinatly

SO far, there is no indication of this whatsoever. From all of the videos, screenshots and previews, it appears that the returning characters are intact, with the same moves that they have had in previous games.

I dunno, I just wanted to post on the first page of a Smash thread.

Yes, that is what I'll do.
I'll probably try it now anyway but I imagine digging through the old thread for this would be a bitch. If anyone can help me out, please.
Or confirmed directly by the director on the old official site. Take your pick. :P
Only because I can't think of an easy transition back to armor though.
I honestly want to know more about controls.
I mean, why make two different characters, whn you can do like Zelda/Sheik did and have a combo character?
I don't see why this is a huge issuse anyway.
Actually, people are endlessly debating the semantics/possible translation issues of "Samus will remove her suit under certain conditions," which could potentially mean anything. Which is pretty much what I said.
At any rate. Yeah, the controls are going to be amazing... I love that we're getting four different controller configurations AND customizable buttons.
We still don't know how the "just a Wiimote" option pulls off smashes... I'm guessing waggle. That'll probably be exhausting, but fun in short bursts.

Let's end it right here.
Samus and ZSS are the same character.
There. That was easy.
Now, moving on...
From here on the conversation looks like this:
"But what if I only want to play as ONE OF THEM???"
"You'll have to learn both."
"Tournament players won't stand for it!"
"Well fuck tournament players"
"No fuck u"
FUCK YOU
EDIT: OH LORD I DIDN'T MEAN TO BE TOP PAGED
I love you too, buddy.

Being nutty has nothing to do with why G&W sucks.
Game and watch is random. Thats his problem.

I'd love to see a competitive player use him and win aginst Falcos and Foxes.
they have, I have seen it.
If you mean his Forward B being crap 8 times out of 9, then no, that's not it either. Lots of characters have worthless moves.
Tomorrow night I'll go through the site and make the icon list.
His problem is that his defense is by FAR the worst in the game. His shield is insanely bad. It's tiny and dissipates in a hurry. This means that half the time you might as well not even have a shield because most attacks poke right through it. Then you have his weight-- one of the lightest in the game, which means death at 80% much of the time. Couple that with one of the worst, laggiest rolls in the game... and you have lost potential.
I'd like to know more about this.
Not to mention you can only L-cancel the foward air and the down air.
Huh, really? I don't use Game & Watch much, so that's easily possible, but I never noticed this. You'd think I would, considering the lag on the neutral-air (not so much the other moves, since they don't get used)
Page 16 of the old thread. I was bored.
(edit) Might as well post it here.
And, they NEED to put Marina Liteyears from Mischief Makers in this game
Yeah, I don't know WHAT they were thinking there. I'm fairly certain those are the only two aerials in the game that can't be l-canceled, and for no apparent reason.
