Thinking about it, being half way through the year, only 4-5 months to go, At least the December 3rd thing didn't say 2008...

Gamestop will begin taking reservations for Brawl soon, once the store allocations have been assigned.

I'll post when this happens, assuming someone else doesn't before I do.

I really don't get it.
made in Japan and even then release in the US first.
As they plan to release on there anniversary of SSBM, ok. But then let everyone enjoy and celeb together. What are they thinking.
There is no single reason I can find why SSBB not release world wide. Anyone?

If you say Europe version/manual book etc takes more time, then wait til Europe version is done and release together.

If you say it's because they have to release on the anniversary, we european can only see fire works and smell sweet pie from distance. Don't worry, we will get the left overs and fire works on youtube.

It depends on the demand that each Continent/Country has. When you look at what parts of the world most people play, it will most likely lead to the U.S. I'm not saying that people don't play in other counties, in fact, they do. But I don't think they play as much as U.S. Think about it, would you release your software in a more demanding region or less demanding. And for the Worldwide release, I absolutely agree, there is NO reason not to be a worldwide release. But it also takes SOME time for production, shipment, etc. One other flaw is that a lot of people will have their hands on SSBB while I live in california...where we are behind MOST people.

Thanks for the reply Salaad.
US might be the most played/buyers. Busines it is.
Just hope it won't take 3 (or more..) months before got shipped/version done to Europe and else where.

It is possible and doable.
See Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer, they are celebrating there 20st anniversary and they want all fans around the world enjoy it without the feeling they are left behind.
In the trailer it said they will release it world wide simoultaneously.
SSB is releasing on there anniversary too, but not let all fans around the world enjoy it simoultaneously....

That is a bit of a bummer for others, but if it has to release in one place before all the others, I'm glad it's in the US first.

FOR ALL OF YOU WHO WANT TO RESERVE BRAWL, GameStop has put Super Mario Galaxy and Brawl into their computers, I reserved my copy today! (Feel SO good)

So, yeah GameStop~~ALL OF YOU, GO NOW! xD

I want a worldwide release also (Even though I live in U.S.) People shouldn't be left out of this because being left out, is not the Dr. Phil way.

Haha I've been waiting since I first heard it was to be released on the Wii. I actually bought my Wii for this game. >.>

Anyway, I'm glad it's in December so I can ask for some money for X-Mas and go buy it. ;)

ME TOO!

But ya, Im just pumped for this game, and I wish they would have put the release date earlier. I bet their only doing that because of the updates. Well, thats only so many people that even LOOK at the updates.

My finals are on the 3, 4 and 5. And I've been told to not open the game until after my last final on the 5th. I dont know if I can bare that.

My school has their winter break on the 23rd... because they want to give us time after the holiday to use our stuff, not to go back the 26th...

Little do they know that they are ruining my plans >:(

When do you think tournments will start for brawl, and when will the Melee tournments end; Any Ideas?
hmmm, well if brawl is online, i'm sure all the nintendo and videogaming forums will have their own little tournys, and sence the game will still use the gamecube controllers, i'm sure tournys will start swappin after it's release

I believe as soon as it launches maybe with online play nintendo will hold tornaments, as for Melee, of course there are gonna be tourneys even after Brawl's release, I say this because when Melee was around people still had tourneys for SSB and may still be around somewhere even thought it's tourneys for that game dramatically fell, but I believe there will always be some group of people out there holding a tourney for Melee

Is anyone else trying to unlock everything before Saturday 8 like I am? I'm going to have a party and I want everything unlocked by then. Unfortunately, I'm supposed to be studying around the time Brawl comes out (I think, I need to check my school schedule).

I'm going to unlock things at a speed of over 9000.
actually, I'm not.

What I'm going to try and do is see if I can unlock characters without knowing who I unlocked.

for example, I'm going to beat classic mode or whatever, (you always get a character doing that) and see who I unlock. I will then proceed to try various other things (event matches, etc.) until I run out of ideas.

100 posts FTW.
