Confirmed On-Screen Appearances

[DarkerCompanion]

The removal of on-screen appearances from Melee was one of my biggest dissapointments with the game. So when I heard they were coming back for Brawl, I was very pleased. That being said, aside from those we can assume (those from the original and "identical entrance characters" such as Pokemon), and the ones posted on the Dojo, what new on-screen appearances have been seen?

 

[Shadow312]

From the top of my head:

Peach- Hearts around her, umbrella over shoulder, waves hand. and says hi
Bowser- Comes out of flames
Yoshi- pops out of egg
Pikachu- out of pokeball

 

[Oh Gibdo]

Link appears in a tornado.

It's supposed to be like the flute from the original or the gale seeds from Seasons/Ages, where a tornado would warp you somewhere else.

 

[CozaMonkey]

Bowser's one sounds pretty badass.

 

[mista_mista]

dedede is carried in on a throne

 

[Shadow312]

I assume Kirby's is a warpstar?

 

[PriestOfApollo]

Samus comes through her little tube thingy, IIRC.

Mario out of a pipe.

 

[Samus-T]

sonic just appears in his little ball thing, jumps around a bit, and goes normal. thats all i can think of right now

 

[Kowz]

Samus comes through her little tube thingy, IIRC.

Mario out of a pipe.

Actually it's not a "tube thingy" its a door...

 

[JJJ.Brawler]

Samus comes through her little tube thingy, IIRC.

Mario out of a pipe.

//what does IIRC mean...?

And - I like Bowser's the best so far.

 

[NDUDE]

Actually it's not a "tube thingy" its a door...

It's a save station from the 2D Metroid games.

 

[RicanThunder]

Diddy comes out of a barrel i think

 

[thetoastinator]

Actually it's not a "tube thingy" its a door...

Actually, you are both wrong, it is the save room/elevator.

 

[DarkerCompanion]

So it sounds as if some from the original 12 may have been changed . . . well, that leaves:

Mario - Green Tube
Peach - Hearts thing with umbrella
Bowser - Appears in flames
Yoshi - Hatches from egg
Link - Whirlwind
Pikachu - Comes from Pokeball
Samus - Appears from Save Point tube
Dedede - Carried in on throne
Diddy - Comes out of DK barrel
Fox - Comes out of Arwing
Ice Climbers - Condor drops them into battle
Lucas - Rides in on Mr. Saturn table
Ike - Uses the Teleport spell
Pit - Comes down on beam of light
Sonic - Bounces around as a ball
Snake - Optical Camoflage reveals him

Assuming the 64 entrances have unchanged, that would mean:
Kirby - Rides in on a warpstar
DK - Comes out of DK Barrel

Anyone know about?:
Pokemon Trainer
Wario
MetaKnight
Olimar
Zelda

People said from Whobby, PT runs on the stage and comes to a stop, then taunts for his entrance.
Diddy comes out of a DK barrel, along with DK.

 

[Pieman0920]

Metaknight uses one of those cape style teleports.

 

[Rhubarbo]

Olimar probably comes out of his ship from Pikmin 2. Personally, I wanted him to come out of the Dolphin but w/e.

 

[Chi's Finest]

Kirby and DK's are confirmed from videos.

PT's entrance that was just named is the same thing I've heard.
