Attention! I have been getting some rather hateful PMs regarding this thread (a few sugestions, but mostly hate mail). Apparently, some people don't understand the point of this thread. I am merely compling a list of observations on characters, stages and game modes based on videos and Japanese impressions. Please don't spam my inbox with PMs saying "ZOMFG HOW R U REVIEWING A GAME U HAVENT PLAYED U N00BZ0RZ!!11!!11!seventeen!1!!1 U R MR GAY SRSLY UR THRED IS TEH GHEY!1!!111 If you don't want to read it, don't, but if you're PMing me, give suggestions or GTFO. That is all.
