I’ve been dying to use that title.

Anyway, finally, after looong last MetaKnight’s been officialy revealed, despite being in screenshots from months ago when the Dojo first opened. Concidering we’ve already seen his Special moves, there’s not really much to add, other than a hint that Sakurai likes messing with people.
<blockquote>It’s Meta Knight, whose introduction was delayed for some reason.</blockquote>

I wouldn't be surprised if Snake came pretty soon. Everyone has been hungry for more "character updates". And I need to sleep before I start making comments about how Dr. Suess seemingly helped title this thread. ... Okay, sleeping nooow.

Took Sakurai some time, but he is looking very cool. Can't wait to use Metaknight.

So after Snake that's it for character's we've seen in Brawl correct? Awesome, character updates can only improve from here : D

"It's Meta Knight, who's introduction was delayed for some reason" LOL

We've seen his moveset and gameplay footage of him in action. He's going to own! Excellent air combat, reflecting cape, quick sword attacks...and he looks so awesome.

No Banner

Meta Knight has no "Warnig Banner" so some people think that those with the banner are unlockable, wrong!
Here's the deal Meta-Knight has the banner because we already knew about him! So characters like PT and Ike are unlocked from the start and only had the banner because we didn't know about them. Unlockables will be updated post-release.
Thankyou

Unlockables will be updated post-release.
I similarly drew this conclusion from going to the predecessor of the Dojo, the place where all the Melee information was held. Indeed, after November 21 it was all unlockables from there...

So, where be Snake...?

Well, at least he finally got it out of the way. Now let's see some more newcomers / veterans! =)

This update kind of annoyed me. If anything this should've been a double update day, since we already knew so much about Meta Knight and are only just now getting the character profile (which is basically nothing but unentertaining text, a few screens and official confirmation, all three of which we already had.)

If we get Meta Knight's special moves in a seperate update I'm going to be officially pissed though.

Snake's supposed to be an unlockable. Notice that he hasn't been seen or mentioned since the second trailer.

i agree with homeless. there is defenitely some meaning as to why his introduction was delayed. Well, this update wasn't expected by me. i thought meta knight would be revealed along with a more detailed plot about the SSE.

Way...to go...Mic. That made my morning, money. I love how people have been avidly complaining about a lack-of-Metaknight for the past month, and now that he was finally updated, ninety percent of people aren't satisfied. To the ten percent of people who are, myself included, you all deserve a complimentary Ned Flanders pat on the back. As for the rest of you, what WILL satisfy you, a horse? EDIT: Awee...if I'd known that you couldn't add font colors and styles in this thread, I'd have posted this in the CCD. I want my purple! -pouts and slumps shoulders-

Metaknights probably mad glitchy from speed issues. They were probably trying to make some of his attacks go like 1/2 a frame or something.

Well, there's still one person we have to get out of the way...

But anyway, hey, maybe he does have a pattern to these updates... just nothing me can figure out. Maybe some weeks from now, every week'll be explosive. I can... feel it.

For some reason? Maybe tomorrow Sakurai reveals that as of Meta Knight, these are the unlockable characters, and we've seen all of the starter characters now. So now we can see more of the new characters, and the returning old ones that will be unlockable. Also, I don't believe that Sakurai has enough to update the site with to not reveal unlockable characters until December. That's a bit too much time to stall, methinks.

Well I'm just glad that comments saying "Metaknight=tomorrow" will be changed to "Metaknight's FS=tomorrow."

Also we can see Kirby still has his Up-B Sword.

All the people who said Metaknight is unlockable are idiots. Sorry, I'm in a bad mood.

I'd bet we actually do get a FS this week, though.

Uhh... durr; anyone who has seen the trailers(everyone) knows Kirby still has his up B cutter.

Hopefully we will get his Final Smash tomorrow. Maybe a double Kirby's and Metaknight's ^_^
