    And I still want Cranky in as an "old master" archetype.

    (Almost be funny if he were behind the Subspace story somehow... he'd make a neat final boss, and could be unlocked in other modes after, maybe?)

    I've said it before and i'll say it again. He would be too powerful if he was in the game.

    hmm
    He can throw barrels and spring thingies. He has mastery over fire creatures and electricity.
    He trained his son to kill Mario. He can bend solid steel 30 feet below him BY JUMPING


    Yes Kranky is a gamebreaker.

    He can be sporting. ;P

    At his age ? Kranky plays for keeps.

    Sporting for Cranky (pretty sure it's not with a 'K', believe it or not) is life and death to mere mortals.

    Well now we're on the same page.

    Also you're right about the spelling I have no idea why I typed it like that.

    I will totally blame mortal kombat though.

    I love how Pikachu's just watching Yoshi fall.

    He's evil like that. He likes to watch creatures die.

    I'd still go with "Beauty and elegance...mixed with clumsiness."

    I dig the idea of Yoshi's final smash, but something about the way it looks is a little off to me. Like, the wings are too big (he had such small ones in Super Mario World!) - those are angel wings. And Yoshi straight up breathing fire like a dragon just seems weird. But I dunno, I guess I'll wait til I see it in action. Besides, who cares how it looks if it plays well?

    I wonder if this song only plays when K.K. is in town, or if it's always the Smashville music. If I had to guess it's probably the former. Smash Bros has never been about consistently driving music (Yoshi's Story anyone?), though some of his quotes this time seems to indicate that Sakurai might be trying to change that. Which is something I would welcome, music that'll get you pumped is always good in fighters.

    It appears to be a common habit among smashers.

    No you see Yoshi cannot be in the title. I had yours in there, without Yoshi, and it works fine.

    Have you heard the KK songs before? An orchestration would be nice, but it just wouldn't be the same. And maybe the regular version only plays if the concert is going?

    Yeah, I'm in agreement. I fucking loved Totakeke, and I think the music file is fucking awesome.
    Yoshi's Final Smash is also cool. I don't remember if he's ever had his original powers, not since Super Mario World. Am I right/wrong on that one? Either way it's really cool that he's getting that back in Brawl.

    The Yoshi thing struck me as very weird until I realized he's just getting the power of all the Yoshi colors.

    Was yellow flying or blue? I know red was fire breath. He really needs to earthquake the ground when he lands in Final Smash form.

    As has been pointed out, you have everyone and their mother on GameFAQS making predictions - at least one of them will be right.

    For example:

    Next week, they'll have another music selection, as well as a returning character who has, shall we say... a familar face?


    Also, in the world of predictions, there's one basic rule: People forget the misses and only remember the hits.

    It took me a second, too.

    It's basically the effect of the rainbow flashy shell, which gave him all three powers.

    Great as that'd be, he'll most likely be an assist trophy if anything.

    I'd settle for that. He's such a great character - it's sad that he doesn't get any recognition.

    Don't get your hopes up. Melee was MIDI, and this stuff sounds just like it.

    (And thus we have the regular "no orchestration? Grrr!" bitching that happens every single damn time we get a music update.)

    Whilst this is true:

    - The SSBM concert was a huge success and very popular,
    - It has been said that the OST will be orchestrated
    - It would seem strange that this amount of work be put in to the game and yet to remain content with a MIDI OST
    - The MIDI samples we are hearing are inferior to their SSBM iterations

    - Which has nothing to do with the game itself
    - No, it hasn't
    - No, it's not
    - No, they're fine. Listen to Melee again, they're very, very MIDI but still quite good.

    Okay well clearly you're just in a contrary kinda mood.

    The MIDI we're hearing here is less technically accomplished than SSBM, though.
