Golden Sun belongs to Camelot Software Planning.

They, of course, belong to Nintendo though; they've worked with Nintendo to produce titles like Mario Tennis, Mario Golf etc. Technically, Nintendo helped and published the game.

Actually, Nintendo and Camelot share the rights, but they are not a 2nd party developer. However, Issac is still 2nd party.

At the credits of Golden Sun, I think it says that Isaac and Golden Sun music is copyrighted by Nintendo... Not like it matters, but I just wanted to point that out.

Actually, It does.

If Golden Sun is copyrighted to Camelot, which is now a 3rd party, he would be more difficult to include in the game because, obviously, he would be a 3rd party character.

It does however say at the end of the game that "Characters and Music are copyright to Nintendo".

So he is a Nintendo character.

Our mighty thread is growing in strength and numbers we should totally start a club.

Oh and he's not 3rd party for the millionth time.

Isaac for Brawl.

I would love for Isaac to be in Brawl.
Also, I love OP's incorporation of the move Ragnarok. It was my favorite skill in the game, as it dropped an immense shimmering sword out of the sky. Very cool.
Let us all pray for Isaac's inclusion.

Welcome to the Isaac thread, we seem to be getting lots of new supporters lately which is good to see. I would love to see Ragnarok as a move too, it's a shame that he will probably be the only GS rep assuming they get one at all because the move possibilities are virtually endless.

Its up in the air if any Golden Sun character will be chosen.

I don't mind either Isaac or Felix, I just want to know dang it!

I agree with that statement. Golden Sun blows 2D Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest out of the water. The only 2D jrpg the rivals Golden Sun is Chrono Trigger.

I'm crossing my fingers for Isaac and Garret. Felix seems cool, too, but I frankly never got to play GS2. I really ought to though. The first one was a masterpiece and it deserves its place amongst Nintendo's allstars, even if only Isaac is getting in.

The great thing about Golden Sun characters is that they are, for the most part, swordsmen, and they all use magic. Many people argue against more swordsmen, but their magic moves would make them incredibly unique. Furthermore, there are so many swordsmen in video games, it just seems right to have a lot of people using swords in a game to represent a wide array of video games.

Their B moves and Final Smashes would also be incredibly simple thanks to Golden Sun's amazing class system, which provided an array of spells. Heck, even A moves could incorporate some spells, ie Zelda. The FS could be based on their summons, ie Isaac could use Venus or Judgment.

Finally, aren't these characters Second Party? That makes them pretty easy to get legal rights for.

We'll find out Saturday, though....

Isaac and the other Golden Sun characters are owned by Nintendo. It says so in the credits of the game.

I come from the land of the ice and snow..
We seriously need to make a new thread, so that the first post can just say "Isaac is owned by Nintendo, not Camelot."

Seriously, I'm stoked about how much support this thread has been getting lately, but the OP is kind of outdated. Ruby, Bassoonist, Zevox, any of you guys wanna do it? I don't know how to post pictures or I'd just volunteer myself..

Well, we should decide on what to put on the OP before we move, like a description, movesets, and the like. On the other hand, we have just recently reached 1000 posts on this thread, so I'm not sure if I want to switch threads so soon after reaching that landmark.
We'll find out Saturday, though....
What happens on Saturday?

A Japanese magazine, CoroCoro, will release an issue that supposedly contains either the full roster or the starting roster. I'm betting starting myself, since I very much so doubt Sakurai/Sora/Nintendo would allow a full roster leak still more than a month from even the Japanese launch, but you never know.

I suppose I could create a new topic, but it's going to have to wait a few days. I have finals tomorrow through Wednesday, it's not just something I can toss aside and spend time online... like I'm doing right now. XD -_-

And how does corocoro know what the starting roaster/full roaster is?...
From what I've heard, its a reliable magazine which has given out such information for Nintendo games before. One of the Japanese-speaking folks on these boards mentioned that it had released some similar info for Melee back in the day, but I forget just what it was. Theres a thread about it in the general discussion section if you want to know the full story, started by Samurai Panda himself.

Well, it doesn't seem like Saturday is going to give us much, if any new information, but I would love to see Isaac confirmed (or deconfirmed) so soon.

Coro Coro have come through in the past (last gen pokemon) but if it does release anything it'll probably just be the starting roster, best not to get our hopes up too much. If Isaac's in Brawl he'd probably be an unlockable character.

The way I see it, either way we're going to get some good updates coming up. (34 more updates until Japanese release)

The remaining updates can't be THAT terrible...

*quiets down before Sakurai hears*

Considering the content of recent updates, those 34 updates could just as well be pages 1 through 34 in the game manual. Here's hoping Monday's update isn't a health and safety warning, and Tuesday's isn't how to turn on the Wii. :(

Well, turning on the wii is a vital part of the brawl experience!.

Well the updates aren't a big deal for me, i'll find out everything about the game before it comes out sooner or later so I can put up with the bad updates. It's better than nothing I guess.

lol, you're so optimistic Machspeed.

So much you're going to get hurt.

I'm telling you, Sakurai could come up with an endless amount of these "filler" updates. We will be seeing more for the rest of the month. Hopefully January is a better month.

Doubt it. With that roster reveal Saturday (if they decide to reveal anything we don't know <_<), and the fact that we haven't had a character confirmed in over a month (Sakurai doesn't care), I think things will shape up pretty soon.

(At least some vet confirmations or interesting updates.)

(I lied.)

Falcon kick.
I really hope that Isaac makes it in. He was the main character of a fairly large GBA title... and isn't that just awesome?
I loved Golden Sun so much.
Isaac would be my favorite character yet if he made it.

When did Isaac get a sword anyways? I played through 1 and a bit of 2, and I never recalled him having a sword.
...you're joking, right? Swords are the single most common weapon for him (and Garet) to wield. He even starts with one as his first weapon, and his image that represents your party when you were moving about the game has a sword sheath hung across his back. Yeah there were axes and maces he could use too, but not in anywhere near the quantity there were swords.

Seriously, if you really played the games and yet don't remember him wielding swords, you must have one hell of a case of amnesia.

A sword?

It'll be that thing from his official art. I'm not sure what it is , but they'll either reveal it as the Gaia or Sol Blade.

Well, the point is, Isaac uses a sword and would have a sword style unique from Ike, Marth, Link, Pit, Meta Knight, etc...
I would expect it to be most like Link's sword style, minus the holding the sword straight up/ down as aerial moves.

i'd expect isaac to have more flow to his moves, beauty and grace as seen in magicians mixed in with the effective swordsman ship of generic european fighter with sword... my i hate lotr one on one fights... well they've made ike so elegant in his own brutish way so if isaac in included i can only imagine it will be art in motion

fixed!!
