Crates and Barrels: What better to start with than basics. These item containers have been revamped to support the themes of certain levels.

Gooey Bomb: The Gooey Bomb acts as a sticky Remote Mine. While stuck to a character, it can be passed back after making contact with another player.
item01_070524c.jpgitem01_070524e.jpg

Cracker Launcher: This projectile launcher isn't as racist as it sounds. It might be more recognizable as a 'Roman Candle'. We saw it briefly in the short clip from Min-E3.

Banana Peel: Because Cliche's work.
item04_070627b.jpgitem04_070627d.jpg

Bumper: A return from the 64, relatable to Melee's Flipper item. A new twist leaves this possible to plant mid-air.
item05_070711b.jpgitem05_070711d.jpg

Pitfall: The item from Animal Crossing. Surprisingly, it caries its ability from Animal Crossing over very well. Simply making characters fall thru holes or thru platforms.
item06_070731b.jpgitem06_070731d.jpg

Smoke Ball: An original item, soley based on obscurity. This item deals no damage, but rather actually just blinds the player from the screen.
item07_070806b.jpgitem07_070806d.jpg

Franklin Badge: Debuting from the Mother Series (Earthbound), this relates to Fox's Reflector, like the Screw Attack Ball relates to Samus' Screw Attack. Basically, it reflects projectiles.

Series Represented:

So far, we've been given a list of series that have been represented, but as we get this list, its come to us out of order. We currently have gaps as shown:

1. Smash Brothers
2. Donkey Kong
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. Ice Climbers
15. Animal Crossing
16. Wario
17. Metal Gear
18. Kid Icarus


*18 Is the highest number we're aware of, it in no way indicates that it is the final number

Discussion (Read: Bitchings)
These are some things to expect in regards to the updates. The type of updated listed, and the expected discussion that can follow.

Music update - Next day spent argueing about MIDI files vs Orchestrated.

Item update - Someone inevitably pisses off the competitve players with the "Why no items" arguement. Other than that, everyone is generally happy.

B Moves update - People are generally meh about this towards returning characters, pretty happy about it towards new characters.

Final Smash update - 1 of 2 updates people everyone appreciates.

New/Old Character update - Pretty cool to see old characters revamped. Pretty awesome to see brand new characters.

Stage update - Next day spent arguing about gimmick levels vs. Battlefield/Final Destination.

Tutorial update - Boring tutorials, but spectacular mode discussions.

Movie update - Dicks cumming, all of them, simultaneously, with super mushroom power-ups.

    Well, the main reason I hate it, is it doesn't fit the level its playing in, it sounds like music from a pokemon game.
    And if I'm not mistaken it is MIDI.

    Pretty sure thats got nothing to do with anything.

    And if you missed it, Music has nothing to do with specific levels anymore. As every level has its own list of custom music tracks to pick from.

    That all said, the first time I fight as Snake I'm probably going to end up turning off all of the music and putting this piece by the Eminence Orchestra on in the background...

    Much as I love the music in Smash Brothers, it's always fun to listen to something outside.

    I just threw it out there because I prefer orchistrated music over MIDI, don't get me wrong though, I love the music in Doom, It's just i think orchastrated music is better for super smash bros games.
