Wait... if they're adding more characters to the roster a few months before the release, wouldn't it mean that they're adding clones? Oh gawd... Isaac better not be a clone.

They made Melee in 9 months. 2 months is more than enough to add at least a few characters(I hope). Anyhow, I'm gonna go ahead and believe the article, since it's from Famitsu. Besides, in 2 years they should have been able to make 40-50, especially if Sakurai is going all out, which he is.

In any case, Isaac is not Third-Party, or even Second-Party(though Camelot is), so his chances are still pretty decent. It just depends on whether or not Sakurai gave him a good look, like I said.

I sincerely hope that he's a clone.



Of Felix.

Adding characters in in a two month delay?

That's laughable. It's a fake. The two month delay is just to fix glitches, nothing special. Still I'm hoping for a decent sized roster.
Maybe, maybe not. You have no proof that it was only for fixing glitches either.

If anything, Felix would be a clone of Isaac. But let's worry about getting one guy before we start discussing two.

Anyways, I've decided to just sit back and trust Sakurai. People panicked about online, Sonic, and he even surprised us with Stage Editor. I don't think he's going to leave out Isaac anymore, at least in some way shape or form.

My contact told me that your contact is wrong.
Your other contact didn't tell my contact that your contact was right. Which means that my contact was right and your brother's contact told my aunt's contact that I was wrong.

12am!

What does everyone think of Saturos as a boss if Isaac gets in? I would love him as a pc personally but I know that's not gonna happen.

R.M.B. were else?
Not saying they didn't say it, but how would X-Play know?
I am not the person to ask, they said that nintendo announced that the delay was so they could implement seamless online play. how would I know their source? but if they were able to give information like that out without any problems, then it must be true or nintendo would be ticked off, and they announced it a while back on their sneak peak at brawl portion. you can also here this on the "super mario galaxy special" but this isnt the place to discuss X-play, this is for Isaac in brawl.

due to there being nobody announced today, I am assumeing sakurai is planning on saving more of ther characters for after the games release or some time later this month.

Saturos alone would be kind of "eh." Saturos and Menardi would be great though. They're a team, so they ought to be fighting together if they're a Subspace boss.

Agreed. Fighting them in a one-on-two boss battle would be awesome.

Wait? Isaac vs Saturos AND Menardi alone? o_O They're a bit tough to be fighting against by one's self, I think Isaac should have a subspace partner like Zelda or Ike against them.

And after they get beaten down a little they should turn into the Two-headed Dragon.
(or was that their younger brother ans sister? I forgot.)

A little off topic here, but was anyone here just in awe when you heard Issac speak in The Lost Age for the first time. I swear, the only thing I expected to come out of his chat bubble was "...". Felix also says "why" in Trial Mountain if I recall correctly.

Yea, it was pretty surprising.
I liked his personality though.

No, that was them. Karst and Agatio just got transformed into two separate Dragons when they failed the trials in the Mars Lighthouse.

Gah! Is the prophet's sconce supposed to be here yet? Does it also count the Isaac being announced December 4th? Not that I really believe you, but I would go insane if you happened to be right.

I don't really care if Isaac gets a Subspace Emissary story at all - as long as he is playable.

The only Final Smashes that would do Issac any justice would be either Mother Gaia or Judgement, his two most 1337 attacks in that game

Prophet? Who? What? I find it highly suspect.

One of the things i've thought about for Isaac is the fact that a lot of people seem to want him to only use his standard earth adept psynergy. However, since another rep for Golden Sun probably wouldn't get in, wouldn't it make more sense for him to have a broader spectrum of attacks to do the series justice?

I naturally wouldn't say include Isaac because he at first glance looks just like an average sword user, but after researching what he can do, I say let him in, but he should definitely be the last sword user.

But then he'd end up like Lucas/Ness and not have any of his own attacks. Although I guess technically he can have every attack in the game...

But really, I don't care about his moveset, I want Isaac for the sake of having Isaac. If he ends up being mid-low tier, even better, that way we don't end up with Fox douchebags who only play him because he's good. And if he's in I definitely want him in Subspace.

Yeah, because we can only have four sword users in the game right? Only ONE of them even focuses mainly on their sword. (Ike). Link has three special moves that don't even involve his sword.

I'm getting sick of all of this argument against sword users. Out of the roster we have right now (what is it? 20 or21?) only THREE of them use swords. We don't even know how many characters there will be in the final roster, and I can't see how Isaac using a sword for his standard attacks should count against him. Why aren't you complaining that there are too many punches and kicks for standard attacks?

So true, sword users are good and cool. And besides, its not like Ike is any good right now lol. Isaac has more than just sword attacks.
