    I don't think it's getting delayed again. HOWEVER, if for some weird reason it DOES get delayed in the US I will eat a- no, I will pun- no, I will sell- no, I will redub the entire "Iris Dies" scene in Mega Man X4 with as much of an over-the-top presentation as possible, and make it "Brawl got delayed again" themed and post it on YouTube.

    I really really hope you can beat them too. Actually I hope you can hit them and they make that sound when you drown them from the original. God that sound made my brothers wife so sad when she heard it.

    Pikmin and Olimar. It was inevitable.

    This is so exciting.

    edit: The music is quite good too.

    That's sourced to something called The Tanooki, which goes on to cite the information from Smashboards.

    I think we need a little more solid confirmation than that. Someone could have easily photoshopped that image.

    how easily will the pikmin be dispatched? that's the most interesting part about him right now I think.

    1-3 Pikmin present little threat. Once you start churning them out though . . .


    Realistically I think at any given time you can have probably 6-8 pimkin in play. If you have a full force out it'll be hard to take them down.

    Edit I just noticed the little Zombie Pikmin. I am psyched.

    Even then the image just suggests that the Japanese version has gone gold. It's not impossible that they could have found a major issue or two in the North American version at the last minute.

    My guess is that the yellow alloy is just Mario. His stance and figure just remind of him, and the horns seem to just be for decoration. The green one is almost certainly Kirby, and I'm guessing the blue one is Zelda as that's what it was like in Melee.

    Hmmm.... could someone post similar shots of Mario and yellow alloy next to each other so we can compare their proportions?

    Here ya go.

    I'd say the falling pose sells it.

    I'd say you and I are seeing something completely different, because I really don't see much similarities in those poses.

    In this the world of Firmware updates I seriously doubt any major issues can't be resolved after production.


    Simply include an update disc with the game for people who aren't online. Problem solved.

    Wow, I know people consider it against the spirit of Smash, but that Soul Calibur IV topic has got my mind spinning with possibilities.

    I still want the next game to be Nintendo Vs. The World, all-out with third parties rather than just a few guests, but if the game after that allowed for properties like Star Wars that'd be just dandy.

    the soul calibur one is definitely interesting but makes almost no sense, but they did add Spawn in the xbox version of soul calibur 2, so I guess the randomness continues.

    Japanese version, isn't that? And no, I have no idea what issue could delay the North American release by that much, but if retailers have pushed back the release dates to March, there must be something someone told them.

    That's not really the kind of thing that firmware updates address. Firmware updates are kind of like OS patches, and you couldn't / wouldn't really use them to patch individual games. (Besides, even if they could just include an update disk, they'd still have to manufacture that, which could still mean a delay.)

    The Super Paper Mario thing required replacement disks to be made, as did Guitar Hero 3's lack of stereo sound.

    I'm not saying that the game's going to be delayed...I'm just saying that even if the Japanese version has gone gold, that's not proof that the NA version won't be delayed.

    getting back to the alloy's for a second...
    If you take a look at the red one:
    various21_080108b.jpg

    nothing has been added or removed from the Captain Falcon model except the skin. No added fins or anything like that.

    So why should we assume that for some reason, they decided to make the yellow one based on mario and add horns? This is my reasoning why the yellow and green alloys are not Mario with horns and Kirby with fin.

    I'm not sure exactly what you are saying, but Captain Falcon does not have the DragonBallZ shoulder armor crap, nor the elf shoes that this alloy has.

    That was his point - that they all have added accessories.
