It could be worse, the Europeans won't be getting the game until Christmas! Then that would be MAJOR torture enough to not only have them commit suicide, but to also cancel a bunch of pre-orders for the game. Meanwhile, Nintendo's probably figuring out what to give out as a Pre-order Bonus, like a Complete Multi-Disc Soundtrack for the game, or how about the Player's Guide, Special Edition?

Pfft, you guys are so pathetic.

You guys are totally missing wh ythis delay is so much better than Feb 10th.

-Online bug fixed (reason)
-IT'S RELEASED ON THE WEEK SPRING BREAK STARTS, OR should start soon. BE HAPPY. Playing Brawl after school and on weekends in February isn't nearly as good as playing Brawl all spring break.

'OOOH I GONNA KILL SAKURAI'

No. Fail. Stop.

What's your problem, Europeans? Just import the US or NTSC version. At least if you have a modchip that allows region free playing, like mine ;-). I mean wtf, USA gets it in March, we get it in May? And Japan maybe even earlier? I won't wait another 4 months! Even if I have to play the JAPanese version, I will do so until the PAL release. I won't mind unlocking everything for the JAPanese, NTSC and PAL version separately 8).

//EDIT

This was my first post? o.O Oh well..

while modding a wii seems like a simple solution for most, i personally have more than $300 worth of virtual console games on my system... i really cannot risk it getting bricked or whatever

Easier said then done. Especially when your parents are too chicken to buy online. >_>
Well, I have to say sorry for going a little overboard back there, but in most sites where you can preorder Brawl it's said that the game comes out in May.
Not to mention the proven fact that the PAL versions most of the times(if not always) are released 2 months after the US release.
So that kinda got me really angry.
I'll try and be patient, after all what choice do I have? lol

If its already finished, why do they need to translate? In melee there was an option to switch between languages.

or maybe the Japanese version doesn't have this? doubtful...

If you follow one or two simple rules, you won't get bricked. Besides, with a modded Wii you can burn ROMs and emulators [of games and consoles you legally own of course ;)] onto a DVD and play it on your Wii. God knows it's much cheaper, and you have a lot more games at an instant! It works perfectly for most normal consoles like SNeS.

They can't change anything. That's exactly it.

The delay for Japan and at least partly for America is because of shipments.

What is the big problem? It's translating it into a few languages and shipping it. It doesn't take that long. I would get my Wii chipped, but I remember I got my PS1 chipped and that broke after two years.

why do they keep delaying this game? japan gets delayed a week, but we're delayed a month. they should have been making copies of the game early on.

Now, whoever said that they'd throw Sakurai off a biulding shouting "YOU MUST RECOVER", I expect results in the next week...

LOL.

AGAIN?! ...Spin the other way!

Well this day has been a ****ing **** hole for ME! God **** IT!. My computer breaks, my speech teacher is a conceited ***** and Brawl got delayed again the world seems to be celbrating take a big old dump on Adder day today!

****

Ouch...and I just woke up...

But MAN ALIVE, am I TICKED OFF!! First the Packers lose after a miraculous launch into overtime, and now I gotta wait ANOTHER phucking month for my preordered game to arrive?! Aw, dammit!! >:( I know the game's gonna be better, but SHEESH, what on EARTH would take so long to translate?! I mean, the Japanese still get theirs at the end of this month!! Translation never takes THAT long!! (I'll bet they're doing something else...like deleting that awesome trophy of the Ouendan I saw on a vid on YouTube said to be from the Japanese Wii.com...or, if you desire an optimist from me, re-recording Sonic's lines with Drummand.)
Regardless, once the J. ver.'s out, we can just head over to GameFAQs and find out the full character roster there, if anything, from an importer's guide. Then it'll finally be settled: Will Mewtwo be in or not?! (And how, other than a different <->B, will Bowser be different?)

Although more time makes for more development, which makes for a better, smoother game...ARE YOU FRICKN KIDDN ME????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? THIS ABSOL-ahem, excuse me. This absolutely put some sharp unwieldy yet blunt object right through my torso. All of it. Not A lung, not A rib, not A shoulder blade...all of it. It's like Mortal Kombat's own Reiko gave me that MK4 Finisher; nothin but arms, legs, and a head now.

****ing brawl noobs plz GTFO. You're making SWF lag like a *****. The game isn't OUT yet so theres not much to talk about. Please just leave.
Smash World Forums is made for ALL smash bros lovers: casual, pros, annoying, or serious. no one has the right to tell people to leave except for a moderator, and they do that sparingly.

QUOTE=Top Prospect;3773923]Well, I guess it could've been worse. It could've been released in Smarch, the fabled 13th month of the year. Then we'd have to go through that stupid Smarch weather to get to the big Brawl. brrrrr[/QUOTE]

the game is being released in japan in 5 days. there is no more development, the delay for both areas was so they can manufacture enough discs to reach the # of reserved games and for discs for the people who havnt reserved it. they're arnt going to add anything that hasn't already been added.

The column on the right side still only says 2008. And if it's true, HELL I will buy the NTSC version for sure!

Are you kidding me? We don't even have to wait a month and a half! We only have 38 days! That's hardly even over a month!

Geez, Americans need to stop whining. I am American too, but atleast I'm excited about the release date.
