Latest Update:
New Item: Franklin Badge


item08_070810a.jpg

Q: Why does it say MOTHER on this item?
A: Is there anything WRONG with having an item that says that?

item08_070810b-l.jpg

The Franklin Badge. It’s a little small.

item08_070810c-l.jpg

Just put it on your chest for now. I mean, it IS a badge...

It doesn’t stand out much, but characters who wear this badge are protected from projectiles.

item08_070810d-l.jpg

I’ve been shot!

item08_070810e-l.jpg

It... It bounced off!

In other words, this item gives you reflector capabilities—and you don’t even have to do anything. Talk about handy! And reliable!

But it won’t stay on through an entire match, so be sure to notice when it comes off partway through the match. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.

Come on, now! Where are you sticking that thing?

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:

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=72642

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
Yoshi
Ike

* Samus will become Zero Suit Samus after using her final smash.

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
Rumble Falls
Skyworld
Castle Siege

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
Pitfall

Pokemon:
Groudon
Goldeen
Chikorita
Deoxys

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
Knuckle Joe

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. Earthbound/Mother
8.Pokemon
9.Zelda
10. Mario
11.Yoshi
12. Fire Emblem
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 enough to make a guy cry at the end.

So I'm running a contest that will run till the end of November (or if a clear winner emerges), and the champ gets a copy of SSBB from me, and maybe other stuff.

Rules:
Detailed guesses only. One-word and/or category-only guesses will be ignored.
Exact guess (example for last update would be "Wario's non-final smash moves") = 10 points
If no one is right, one point for each area the closest person's guess was right (using last example, "Wario's final smash moves" would garner 2 points: one for Wario and one for moves)
The more specific correct guess wins the points.
In the event of a tie (somehow) both people split points, to discourage duplicate guesses.
Edited posts = disqualification for that update
Example guesses can be seen in the last thread.

    Going to reiterate my vote for the day.
    Ike Final Smash. I want some fancy, crazy swordplay like the critical hits in the 2D games.

    And by 2D critical hit I don't mean Ike's, just the general style of the 2D game compared to the blandness of the GC game's animations.

    And my estimate for time of update will be 1 hour after standard (1am PDT, 4am EDT).
