    All the boring updates have actually been charging up Sakurai's "specials" bar.

    When it's full, he can unleash an awesome update to KO us all instantly.

    You can charge fan attacks?

    Yep, you can charge all of those "random things you hit people with" items, including the Star Rod, oddly enough.

    Yeah, I knew about charging Beam Sword attacks and doing Home Runs. Fan just never occurred to me.

    This game just keeps on giving!

    The ad needs to be just Sonic and Snake fighting. With no hint of another Nintendo character or product.

    Cut to two stoner guys playing. One says "Dude, isn't this that Nintendo thing?"

    And then solid snake comes out of the shadows and breaks their necks. Then he looks at the camera and says "Show time."

    Tilts also work to shoot the Star Rod.

    It's the only way to shoot a "normal" shot with the Rod when using Captain Falcon. A smash with it will make him summon Knights of the Round...
    ...or just shoot about eight stars at once in a spread pattern that only goes a short distance.

    I never liked how Capt. Falcon's HR smash was a gut shot, then a sky shot (IIRC)

    I mean, I still got his Sandbag mileage high, but it took a while.

    Wasn't it a YouTube comment, where some guy said in response to a stupid woman, "I wish Captain Falcon was real so he could Falcon Punch you in the ovaries?"

    Because that basically sums up Captain Falcon perfectly right there.

    Guys you guys.

    Tonight's update.

    Newcomer: Everybody

    giant_crowd.jpg

    I'm sure many of you were disappointed to learn that the game was receiving a delay until February 10th. However, it was absolutely necessary to make time for a few tweaks we really wanted to make.

    Tonight, I would like to proudly announce that everybody will be playable characters in brawl.

    Why does the Fire Flower look like it was made by a 8 year old using 3D Studio Max?

    Seriously? The Melee one looked nice, this just looks weird.

    Also, I've said it before I'll say it again. Leon. Shit, I'll take him as a unlockable character.

    After beating the story mode with Megaman, fucking Leon pops out and is like "Where is everybody going? Bingo?". And you fight on top of the Village.

    Goddammit you guys.

    No matter how long its been every once in a while I go to the Smash Bros. Dojo and realize "HOLY SHIT Sonic the fucking Hedgehog and Solid motherfucking Snake are in this game!" Indeed I don't think the shock of this is ever going to really fade. Years from now we'll be gearing up for Super Smash Bros. Scuffle on Nintendo's successor to the Wii and I'll pop in Brawl to tide me over and then I'll be all like "I can't believe Sonic the fucking Hedgehog and Solid motherfucking Snake are in this game!"

    It is indeed something amazing.

    It's pretty much as close to a perfect 3D version of the original SMB flower as you could get.

    Also seriously, the 4-year-old in me lets loose the mightiest "BUH?" every time I see that image.

    Yes, stay up. Then we'll have an awesome update. It's fool proof.

    Also, we need Mario in Sonic's speed shoes. I think that would be an item they would bring from the Sonic series if it wasn't for the bunny hood.

    Oh god.

    What if there was an item, that could only show up in team mode, and it fused together the teammates?

    Shit on a more practical note team Final Smashes are a thing that needs to happen.

    Well, I guess later I would stop World War II and shit, maybe go one day in the past and tell myself to watch out for the step at the mall it's broken. But nah, I think showing children that one day, Sonic and Mario will work together to kick Bowser's Ass at Yoshi's Island, it will be like a metaphor that all rivals will join together in the end.

    Then I'd tell them that the Governor of California is the Terminator.

    So like

    Altering history to become king of the world, finding out exactly how the universe began, telling yourself the winning lottery numbers, getting a bunch of guns and buddies together to go fight dinosaurs

    None of that really sounds very appealing?
