EGM "claims" to "confirm" Brawl online...

My EGM Magazine came in today... they have a short section about Brawl. Note this article was done BEFORE E3, so things HAVE CHANGED (such as their release date). Read on for what it says:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Wii.Nintendo.Fall 2007 (Gerbil Note: We obviously know now it is December 3rd)

Nintendo's iconic cast may look cute and cuddly, but watch out - someone like Princess Peach can knock the piss outta Mario. This third installment in the Smash Bros. series steps it up in every way, as Brawl features a host of new characters (such as Pit from Kid Icarus, Wario, and Metal Gear's Solid Snake), power-ups, and ever-changing stages. Even the audio is receiving a major upgrade, with more than 35 of the industries top musicians - which includes such talent as Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger), Yoko Shimomura (Kingdom Hearts), and Yuzo Koshiro (ActRaiser) - working on the game's soundtrack. But it's the promise of online play that's really got us itching to step into Brawl's arena (the developer's promise of not overdoing the Wii-mote wigglin' and wagglin' also helps).

Online play: [check mark] Customizable characters: [no check mark] Adventure mode: [?] Guest stars: [check mark]

Now. Before you guys go off the wall like I know some of you will. This DOES NOT confirm online. NOR DOES IT CONFIRM PEACH OR SORA OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER. IT IS JUST THEIR ARTICLE.

However! Please feel free to speculate ^.^

So?

It's consensus on the internet that it will be online. People don't want to look into it themselves, they think it's confirmed.

Look at Metroid Prime 3

in the Subspace Emissary. What is the Subspace Emi
Oh yeah I remember this. I got my EGM a while ago. Soul Calibur 4 looks nice....

ANYWAY! I think that since online play is what people are associating brawl with nowadays it's more like EGM thinks it's more likely that there is online play than not so they checked it off.

Eh, EGM just assumed. What's got me convinced there will be online play is Matt from IGN. He seems to have talked to some people who were actually working on it.

Well... You never know if they got the low down and never said it out loud.

Doesn't really confirm it fully because I have yet to see it on the site. But it does get my hopes up a little more.

I'm wondering this, too. I just read the issue todai, maibe EGM got a secret meeting with Sakurai and he said that there would be online play.

When they announced Brawl they said it would have online play, probably what they were refering to.
