Dojo Taking a Week Off

[Xsyven]

You know what’s weird about tonight’s update? Most of us didn’t notice that it was, in fact, a <em>triple </em>update. But don’t be alarmed–the third (or should I say first?) update was pretty easy to miss. If you’ll direct yourself to the Dojo’s homepage, you’ll notice the ‘NOTICE’ box on the top has changed from its usual message about daily weekday updates, to the following message from Sakurai:
<blockquote>All seven languages of Smash Bros. Dojo will take a year-end holiday break from posting following December 28. We plan to resume posts on January 7.

Have a happy new year.</blockquote>
That’s right, folks. It’s a tough bit of information to swallow, but I’m sure it’ll be healthy for all of the Smash fans out there to cut themselves from their Dojo addiction.

Updates resume the second week of January. After three weeks, the game will be released in Japan–and I’m sure that’s when all the juicy stuff will come out. Stay tuned, Smashers. Rapture is almost here!

Nooooooooo

lame...... well i thought the christmas week was going to be a week off anyways so i was a week off but still NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

looking at this week though it was pretty cool.... plus the rumour of brawl going gold so i guess that its ok if sakarais team wants a well deserved break and First Post

 

[Loadsy]

Smashy Ford??

****it Sakurai forcing me to go into smash rehab when the drug is so **** good!

 

[RazorwireTroop]

Sucks, I was actually looking forward to some since my break ends at the 7th.

 

[Loadsy]

wow i got censored for saying d-amn!? surprising....

 

[X-x-Dyce-x-X]

Actually, there's a semi-fourth update.

Check the Japanese page and you'll find that the official boxart is being displayed underneath the selection bar of the left.

That was there yesterday.

 

[X-x-Dyce-x-X]

Oh... well... no one told me!

 

[SmashBro99]

Fair enough, although I expect something big when they come back, maybe this will lead to a newcomer?

 

[Brentos4o8]

Lmao I love that line.
It sucks that we don't get anything for a whole week.
Idc if they gave us small updates, they gave us something.
Oh well. I wonder what I'll be doing instead of checking updates lmao.

 

[kackamee]

Well, I guess that breaks the debate on wheather or not we get a new char on New years

 

[brawler12]

where is the brawl going gold rumor??
On topic: I think it's going to be the big wait for a character bombarment for the second week of Jan.

 

[lukintosh]

No.... NO!!!!

Well give them a break. It's very tiring to annoy fanboys with the likeliness of Falcon's update appearing.

 

[kackamee]

At least Jiggs is in

 

[limitbreak]

Good we need a break. Sakurai is running out of time before the game releases and doesn't want to give out to much info.

 

[Kirbykrew]

I'm in tears.

Oh well, he should have a good reason for this anyways.

 

[FangzV]

My greatest fear has been recognized...
Oh well.

he should have a good reason for this anyways.

 

[Ca$hoholic]

Typically it comes back when im going to the hospital .________.

 

[AMPMClock]

I can't believe Brawl comes comes out in 4 weeks, basically. Its been a long time coming, its hard to imagine me playing brawl so soon, but hey, its going to happen.




On topic, I really don't even care about updates anymore, since I'll know everything about Brawl before long.

 

[Yaya]

Sakurai deserves this break, he's been updating every weekday since May! That's huge! The least he can do is take a weeks break, and yet some people on these boards are going "No! THIS IS UNFAIR! HE CAN'T DO THIS!"

Well he did, so shut the #*$& up.

 

[Ness is my fav]

on topic:if it wasnt 4 sakuri,brawl never woulda happened the way it did,so.....yeah



off topic:Xsyven,was that an unintentional thing, or was that a BioShock joke?


the rapture part i mean

 

[Polostick]

Fair enough, although I expect something big when they come back, maybe this will lead to a newcomer?

we haven't got a new character since oct 25. maybe he has just showed us all the starter and first party characters. other wise, wouldnt he have showed us jigglypuff or something like that?

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Those people responsible for the updates sure deserve the one week break after doing so many updates during the last 6 months.

 

[Masky64]

I bet you they are taking a break from the dojo in order to put Megaman in.

 

[Aguasatori]

This makes me sad. But Sakurai and the rest of the SSBB team need a break. But I hope there will be a newcomer update when they get back from break....

 

[Naoshi]

I bet you they are taking a break from the dojo in order to put Megaman in.

...That makes no sense. And this is coming from a Mega Man supporter too.

 

[Masky64]

...That makes no sense. And this is coming from a Mega Man supporter too.

Honestly, I don't care if Megaman is out, but why else would they be taking a break from the dojo?

 

[Naoshi]

Because it's the holidays XP

They've been updating for the past 6 or 7 months. And the game has gone gold. (Meaning it's completed and copies are being made as we speak)

 

[SSBBKingster]

I wounder if the game will come out earily than expected? That would be kool.

 

[GoldenGlove]

the rapture part i mean

In Christianity, rapture = Jesus's second coming.

He's just making light of the fact that to us smashers, Brawl coming out is like the second coming of Jesus.

 

[Espy Rose]

No Dojo for a WEEK! NO! I need my fix!

Withdrawal's going to be a *****


But in all seriousness, I'm glad they're taking a break. Frankly, I could go on from here on out without any updates, seen as how Brawl is so close.

Wow, what a wonderful thing to hear: Brawl is almost here.

 

[Yoshistar64]

I wonder if this delay will lead to a Brawl delay... oh whatever. It's not like there were any mindblowing updates in the past month.

They'd better be back with REALLY GOOD updates to make up for this break.

 

[AniMaL 214]

I'll Help Brighten The Mood

this is the funniest brawl parody i ever seen its rediculously funny check it out

[spindash]

HA! That's awesome! XD

 

[Aaryk]

that makes me sad.
I'm off school and have actually had time to check the update every morning.
and now i can't even do that?!
Happy F*ckin New Year, Masahiro Sakurai.
Indeed.

 

[BOZO500]

haha it comes back to updating the day school starts up again. maybe they're taking a break so that they dont have to give out so many updates, keeping the surprise factor higher

 

[Raxivace]

Watch Sakurai give us only Poke Balls the week the updates start back up.

 

[Naoshi]

that makes me sad.

Happy F*ckin New Year, Masahiro Sakurai.
Indeed.

Well geez. Sakurai so totally has to forget his vacation and update the site for you then, right? Let's forget the holidays! Brawl is the only thing that matters in the world anymore!

Seriously, let him take his vacation. It's so annoying when people whine about this. Brawl is almost here anyways. :/

QFT. Many people are too shelfish and forget that Sakurai and everyone else working on the game have family they would like to be with. The whiners can b**** about it all they want, but who cares about them.

 

[shadenexus18]

Meh....whatever....it's not as if the updates were all awesome anyways.
