I'm back from my weekend vacation and now I'm seeing Friday's update... and all I can say is WHOO-HOO!
I've been waiting for such a story mode since I've seen the images from Melee's Adventure Mode. I was sooo disappointed that the only 'enemy levels' were the Underground Maze, the Mushroom Kingdom and Icicle Mountain...
But now, with so many new possibilities... oh boy, I am excited!
By the way, does anyone know if that strange ram-creature or the things Meta-Knight is fighting on the images are from any Nintendo game?
About the Smoke Ball: It's a nice addition, although I think it won't do too much to affect the battle. Still, it's a funny gimmick, and anyone who doesn't like it can very likely just switch it off.
I also believe that it's going to be Peach's turn this week, although I'm a bit disappointed when I saw her in the trailer. I have been hoping for her look from Super Mario Sunshine...
Someone who made an earlier post said something that I liked to imagine: Letting every character have his or her own home stage. Such as Delfino Plaza for Mario, Peach's Castle for the princess, Bowser's Castle for our favorite, fire-breathing turtle...
I can't wait to see which stage Samus will have, although I have a hard time imagining whatever Wario's stage could be... Maybe his castle, or a treasure room? Or even the headquarters of his company, Wario Ware.
As for the Pokémon stages... I'm hoping for a few locations from the GB games, such as the MS Anne, or the Dragon's Den. Or maybe the Lake of Rage...
By the way, has anyone already taken a look at my Pokéball Pokémon thread? It's worth a look, even though not too many people have commented...
