*sigh...* and to think we could have been playing Brawl in less than a month... darn Reggie...

Also, wow... I haven't heard the word "nitwit" in a long time! Thanks. lol.

And, yes, the game's still in development. Usually, a game goes gold about one-two weeks before it's set to be released... so, no way in hell is it done now.

We won't, because they are still making the frikkin game.

Once again, the game is in D-E-V-E-L-O-P-M-E-N-T, also meaning, IT'S NOT READY YET.

There is no link between Galaxy's sales and how early Brawl is released, any nitwit could tell you that.
we don't know how far. for all we know, it could have been completed or nearly complete. you all trust nintendo too much. anyone can lie too make themselves look better.

so will he be limited to a boss? or will he be a pokeball as well(maybe you unlock him as a pokeball when you beat him...)
Hmm well he'd be cool as anything really, but I mean if he was a pokeball what would he do? We've already got Latias/Latios darting across the screen, and Deoxys firing a massive thing into the middle, what would he do?

Just shoot random bullets into people?

well, those bullets arecool looking. what move is that btw? i've seen it in the movie, but I dont believe it was in the games...
True, I don't really remember doing anything like that after I caught him :confused:

Luster Purge would be my best guess, but that's only coz I have no idea how it looks :(

I am all for the delay. I doubt that the level editor would have been in without Brawl being delayed. That feature alone makes it well worth the wait.

And STILL no European release date...
i presume we won't hear anything about the european release date till it's out in america. probably we will be informed in march/april that the game will be released in june/july/probably august.
better get your wii chiped and download it as soon as it's out.

edit: forgot to say: whoever downloads the game should also purchase it as soon as it's out in his/her country.

yea, my rayquaza is lvl 100, and it doesnt know that move.

Luster purge? whats that? maybe...
Luster Purge is a psychic type move with a base power of 70, 100% accurate(without accuracy/evasion modifiers), a 10% chance of lowering your opponent's pokemon's Sp.Def and can only be wielded by the one and only Latios. (Counting out Smeargle, ditto, and mew)

Point is, Rayquaza can't learn Luster Purge. So I doubt that was really its mystery move.

Guess I'll put in a link showing the wide availability of Luster Purge:

I might need to get one of those too, because my router is upsetting me and i possibly might get an better connection with that than searching for an access point through wifi.

well if anyone wants to play dragonballz tenkichi 3 online with me when it comes out just ask me
I hate the way they say those games have like 100+ characters and 60% of them are just transformations lol.

on topic.. i hope the delay = more characters, more modes, and everything finetuned.

There's gotta be a new char update next week. Not had one for ages, so we're overdue to get one.

im pretty upset about the delay myself, but that just means its going to be all the amazing-er. the stage builder is going to be a fav around the world, it will be for me. im hoping for some characters myself, but only one has a chance of getting in.

What if they did it again? You probably don't want to think about this possibility but it could probably happen. Nintendo is known for prolonging the wait for some of its biggest and greatest games. Just look at The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. It was originally scheduled for November 2005 but it wasn't until a year later in November - December 2006 until it was released.

Apparently, Nintendo finds this to be a great marketing plan. Not only does it create more hype for the game but it also makes us think that the game is going to be bigger and better since the development is longer.

If you look at the Dojo there are only 40 updates until the Japanese release and 55 Updates until the American release. At the rate Sakurai is going now it may seem like this is not enough time to fit the updates we want. So far we only have 11 newcomers and 12 veterans in SSBB, in other words 23 characters. If Sakurai is supposed to give us the rest of the new characters and whatever else he has to show us in just 40 more updates I hope there will start to be some quadruple updates in the near future.

a year delay and it couldn't even live up to prievious standards. a year delay for a $50 better graphics n excange for downgraded gameplay. year delay for a no longer origanal game.

That proves that delay's aren't always good. All we can do is hope that this delay IS.
