Sonic being announced before Captain Falcon?

Every week i anticipate captain falcon to be confirmed, only to find a newcomer like lucas or meta knight.

Has sakurai not realized the importance of one of the original 12? And, dont say jigglypuff, because C falcon is a starter, and has already been semi confirmed by Goroh.
Please sakurai, confirm C falcon as well as shiek and dorf in the next coming weeks.

I'll cut my balls off if master chief gets confirmed before Falcon.

Captain Falcon was an unlockable character in the N64 Super Smash Bros.

So was ness. and they were both starters in melee. Hell, sakurai revealed ice climbers (a new melee starter) before c falcon.About the sonic and falcon thing my point is that its like confirming pikachu before Mario.

@gigakoopa


No!! you dont understand!! He is my favorite character, and of many i know too. plus, if he was already revealed, then he would be playable in the upcoming demo, mirite? Meaning we would get to see his revamped moves

Uh, yeah, good thing you picked an impossible character for that statement...

Technically, Link was confirmed before Mario, if you look back on the updates, and Pokèmon is more popular than the Zelda series, so in way that has already been done.

But look at it this way: Captain Falcon wouldn't be seen as such a big deal by fans, since hes a given anyway. Sakurai would need to have lost his mind not to include him, and we all know it. Sonic, on the other hand, is one of (probably the) most anticipated character ever, and his announcement creates one hell of a lot of hype and makes a planet full of fans very, very happy. Considering the other piece of news we've received today, the probable delay of Brawl, which is the one which is better suited to consoling fans about the bad news and helping us take it easily?

Do you mean the weeks leading up to the release or the weeks immediately after? If the former... *shrugs* Marth, CF, Ness, Mr. G&W, possibly one or two additonal newcomers, and possibly Jigglypuff. If the latter... anyone who's secret, if they aren't revealed immediately before its release.

_____Its like what all the people in this thread said. It might as well be confirmed, he has been in both games, and he is very popular, although his series is dying, sakurai aknowledges samurai Gorah; so I believe that the f-zero series will definataly have a rep. That rep will almost definataly be captain falcon.

Don't worry, he'll be in, if not I get your balls ^-^

Setting you up the bomb.
Yeah, it is considerably irritating that they've been so sluggish with updating the Veteran Fighters, but I guess they're simply focusing on characters that will generate more buzz at the moment... I'm thinking that we should be seeing C. Falcon and Marth relatively soon though...

Master Chief is not impposible, Naruto is.

Aniway, Cap'n Falcon is confirmed his logo is in the site, that should be enough, besides, he is a secret character(i guess).

My goodness, who freakin' cares about what order characters are confirmed in the DOJO? Honestly, just wait for the game to come out! The fact that Lucas was confirmed before Sonic will have no bearing on the quality of the game. Captain Falcon will be confirmed when he is confirmed. Why does it matter when he is confirmed?

If Narutard is in it I'd chop Sakurai's balls off.
Anyway, Lemme guess where the logo is for falcon, Goro's page?

He's not a secret character. In the original, yes, but not in Melee.

They Probably would release other characters from F-zero before C.falcon cause he not as important to them >.<.. OR maybe there not really focus on C.falcon just on other character's that are not released yet ..c.falcon would most likely be in it so just have patience theres like 2 months before brawl comes out he is going to be released by then or it will just be a surprise

you have it backwards
Actually, both are impossible - Naruto due to originating in anime/manga (said by Sakurai in his journal to make characters ineligible), Master Chief due to being owned by a competitor company who would be crazy to permit it.

Marth isnt in.


If you saw the videos with Ike gameplay, you could easily see those swordswipes were almost exactaly like Marths. And shorter.

Easily proven Marth is gone.
I saw the same video, and you must be either nuts, or unfamiliar with Marth. None of his attacks mirror Marth's, and the only similarity is that some were wide and sweeping strokes (a similarity which would be hard to avoid, considering the alternative is making all the attacks quick and short or stabs, which isn't suited to Ike's larger blade). Heck, he even had a few stabbing attacks (one of which resembles Link's sword plant move), of which Marth had none (save for his sword dance special), and one where he twirled his sword above his head, which is utterly unlike Marth.

The greatest similarity Ike has to any other character thus far is his Aether move strongly resembling Kirby's Final Cutter and his weight appearing to be about the same as Roy or Link.

Are you kidding me? You've got to admit that Sonic being confirmed before Falcon is a bad omen. Well, Falcon's a shoe in yes, but he might get a jacked up moveset. A really really lousy one.

I want to see a Falcon Knee screenshot asap or I'm going to snap.....

You know, he didn't even have that move back in the original, yet he was high tier there. Making assumptions about his abilities in Brawl without evidence is rather foolish, don't you think?

Look at this scenario. Mario's the main character of the game and yet Sakurai rearranged his moveset for the worst.

Falcon could get the same rough treatment.

How is his moveset rearranged for the worst? His Up B, Forward B, and Neutral B are still the same. The only thing that changed was his Down B. You haven't played the game yet so how would you know if FLUDD ruins his moveset?

I dunno. The doubts I have for C. Falcon stem from the fact we haven't seen him yet, and that it looks like some of his moves got divvied up. Snakes' Nair and A combo look an awful lot like Falcons.

Also because Ness was replaced by Lucas. Not that it's confirmed, but it's a good chance.

Also because Jiggs is definitely not coming back. Not confirmed, but I just know it.

I've played Brawl.....while I sleep at night.:)

Look at it this way guys. From Smash 64 to Melee, alot of the game mechanics were changed especially the moves for Falcon. And the same exact thing is going to happen with Brawl. I guarantee it!

First of all, Mario isn't the main character of the game. This is Smash Bros., which features all of the top Nintendo franchises (and now popular 3rd parties too), not Super Mario, where he is the main protagonist.

Second of all, how in the blue hell do you conclude his moveset got changed for the worse without even playing the game???? His up+B covers more range, he still the cape, The FLUDD might become a good edgeguarder, the Tornado appears to have a better hitbox, and his fair has been changed to match Doc's fair in Melee, which was a beastly KO move. Not to mention his absurd, over-the-top Final Smash.

I don't even get what that has to do with Captain Falcon's confirmation. The way I see it, the later he gets confirmed, the happier I'll be, because it makes his long awaited return that make better.
