The special attack is an item shaped like the Smash Bros. symbol (a circle with two crossing lines going through it). It was in the video I think...a character grabbed it in midair and did the attack.

I think fast chars that can grab the special item easier, should have a less effective special. And for players like wario and bowser, their special should be ill nasty.

Exactly what he said. Maybe when a character is behind in a match then the 'special' item will fall onto the stage (a tad bit faster then a heart falling onto the stage) and if he/she doesn't touch it in time (before it hits the ground) then it will dissapear? I don't know. I'm not good at predicting things.

It was very obviously an item.
In the trailer, right around the :24 mark when Mario does his super, you'll notice if you playback slow-mo that the super barely sends Link or Kirby anywhere. If you ask me, the super looks on the level of a Entei or Ho-oh pokeball. It's rarity should probably be the same asf one of those; although, I could see something like one or two supers a match.

NO conditions to make items appear

Its an item.
It shouldn't be a bar.
It'll drop on the stage rarely and randomly. (Unless you turn all items off except for the super smash. =x)
Anyway, it'll just fall-- and everyone will see it and the first there gets it.
Just like the starman, hammer, or homerun bat. Everyone loves those items, and they fall once per 2-3 games if you have all items on with normal drop rate.
But if you're like me, you'll play with no items in the first place.
But yeah, if you're kicking ***, you don't deserve a super hit-- because you're already doing well. If you're sucking, then you don't deserve a super hit because it'll make the other players's work all for nothing.

And if you're in the middle, you don't deserve a super hit because you aren't winning. Eh?
Anyone can so the super, and it doesn't matter if they're winning or not.

i reckon it could work out like Mario Kart: DD with the specials.
An item will come up randomly during the brawl, and whoever grabs it, will have a special show up in the display bar, and they can use it anytime they want. And you can only have one special at a time.
like Xsyven has said.
Or to be a real tease you only get one special for every brawl. And it's up to you when you use it. This could push the fun of losers making it their dying wish. Going out on a bang.
The meter does sound good, but if so, i kind of like the ideal of an item floating round, you grab it, and get your meter, and depending on your meter power at the time you use it, will also reflect the damage.

Maybe it should just be a really rare item so everyone can use it and it's fair.

It will be an item.

Did anyone notice the fact that it was hovering? It didn't jsut fall onto the stage, it was hovering there in midair. I bet it was a stage special. They stopped getting them after they left that stage.
Zink
Smash Champion
LOL, a whole new game mechanic being restricted to one stage? No. Likely they just used that stage to showcase the super moves.
Vasilicus
Smash Journeyman
It couldn't possibly be for every stage. It would be too broken if Mario could do that thing everywhere.
Zink
Smash Champion
Um, why? It's only an item, and presumably a rare one. I'd expect it to be of about the same power of a legendary pokemon, or maybe a bit more depending on the character.

ACTUALY, people mostly think that how you earn the special is by getting one item. however I belive it will work like this:
there will be a LOT of smash orbs that fall on to the stage somehow. perhaps by beating up your enemy or something. the player collects them and they fill up a gauge. and if you want to get even more complicated, the gauge will have 3 levels. once at least one of the levels are reached, you press a special buttin that triggers the super. or if there is only one super for each character, once the gauge is full, then the super will be triggered automaticaly or something. eh? eh?

Eeew, no gauges. This isn't Street Fighter.

Anyway, I agree that the Special shouldn't be executed after a special gauge fills up or whatever, and I do agree that it the stage shouldn't have anything to do with the Special. I think it's a pretty good idea that the Special will most likely not KO people, but more along the lines of a Legendary Pokemon.
No point arguing if it's a gauge, an item, or whatever. I guess we'll just have to wait until the game comes out.
OKAY we get it people, from the trailer it looks like you get an item to do your special. This has never been confirmed by Nintendo it was only assumed. So when people talk about a meter STFU because nothing is permanent at this time, it can still be changed dumb*****.
Falco&Victory is still an idiot? I thought he would've wisened up by now.
Like Leon said, NONE of you know how the supers will be activated. I know you THINK you do, but Tom Cruise THINKS that a dead alien god lives in volcanoes and sends spirits to possess people who cause bad feelings. Does that make it true? No, it doesn't.
So far, it looks like it will be activated with an item. However:
So again, while a bunch of you pretend that you know supers are activated by an item only, you actually don't know what you're talking about, and more the try and argue your "case," the more full of **** you really are.

Well, the flatulence we saw in the movie was definitely super-worthy. And him saying it's a "fantastic move" lends to the credence that the Waft is indeed his super. So what do you nay-sayers have to say about the fact that it builds up over time. Notice how he didn't say "the Waft is activated by an item." Actually, he deliberately said something else.the DIRECTOR of the frikking game said:

That would be a lot more credible if he actually said it was a super.
It could instantly send you to Super mode, while getting regular Smash bonuses would add to it slowly.
Like I said, I don't know, but neither do any of you.

Grrrrrrr..... don't ever say anything against the people who made Smash in front of me or you risk death by me posting my signature 19 times on the same page so your computer freezes when you try to view it.
Too the person that was sooo certain that it was an item. Where's your source ? The trailer ? That doesn't really explain much. It could power him up or be an item that automatically give the player a super, but that doesn't mean that in order to initiate a super you must grab that item. I think it'll be similiar to a Mario Tenniss type super. Just more rare. Like there's no gauge, but you pull of a lot of combos or rack up a lot of attacks and things. Then you glow or whatever and that's when you know you have a super. Also, Mario's super doesn't take up the whole screen, as seen in the trailer it looks like you can jump over it. It also doesn't look incredibly fast so you'll have time. I think a triple jump or a double jump with some characters would be able to make it above that attack. No one knows for sure though as that's my opinion.

I think that people should give credibility to this statement.Hmm..that does sound reasonable,building up energy over time.
And the other thing i liked was thestatement about the Mario Power Tennis theory.But as we stand.we still know nothing of it,so we just need to wait.

I don't really care if it's an item or not, but I do want to point out the constant complaining that supers will be too powerful. From where I'm standing, I didn't see anyone get ko'd by the attack and if you really want to complain about an item, what ablut the homerun bat? An instant ko weapon that you could use until you drop it? I think the supers are just a way to make the characters look more flashy and intresting.
Their might be an invisible meter in the game that fills up slowly over time from fighting allowing you to get a special, and then their might be an item that completely fills up the special meter. So people need to quit shooting down the idea of a meter and b******* about it being to Street Fighterish.
