i was reading on wikipedia (yeah i know - but its interesting to read once in a while) about ssb, ssbm, and brawl...one particular thing i was reading on, was that the game was announced on may 10th 2006, and trailer revealing snake was shown at the end. fast foward to october 10th 2007 and we got sonic...december 10th already passed, so maybe january 10th we get another 3rd party character update...? who knows.

sorry if this has been reposted, but the site seems to only let me click certain buttons and links...i hate my internet (moreso comcast) sometimes.

thoughts?

Big dates never work out.

EDIT: well, I suppose that statistically some must, but they're not any more likely to have big updates than other days.

I think there will be a character update tomorrow because tomorrow is a moxie day since Ronald and Grimace are black, thus, we will get enough stat point to advance to level "Dark Samus Confirmed."

Your looking at patterns now...as we all know, there are no patterns to Dojo updates. The fact that both of those dates yielded trailers was a coincidence: in reality, they were both made to coincide with Nintendo events, E3 2006 and the Fall 2007 Nintendo Press Conference.

Pro tip: Not everything on Wikipedia is true.
QFT, I made once a homework using information from there and my teacher told me it was incorrect :S

On topic, if those dates are correct, that may happen, or that may not. Remember Miyamoto's birthday? People (including me) hoped to see Olimar revealed that day. I do think we will get a new character, but I dunno when.

There comes a point when we try to hard to come up with these kinds of theorys. When we learn of what coro coro reveals to us I will be through with all this speculation, it seems to be the only one that has any "real" evidence (not ideas/assumptions/etc). Even this can be a giant disappointment, it could be rehashed information. We need to stop with coming up with theorys on everything its frankly becoming annoying

<_< ; *hopes not to get flamed*

There are nine letters in "abolition". Nine is one less then ten, and Brawl is being released on the tenth, therefore, in one day, Sakurai will abolish tiers and wavedashing.

Good effort, but pattern predictions and so called "big dates" never seem to work out. Just setting yourself up for disappointment.

Although you very well may be right. After Christmas we're going to see massive updates, definitely the last one or two third party characters, SSE updates on starting characters, and probably a few groundbreaking things that we didn't expect all to gear up for the Japanese release. We'll be seeing some great updates in January.

Threads like these make me sad. People actually go about believing them and then get all disappointed and hate Sakurai over some fan based prediction about the updates. Dec. 3rd anyone?

Anyway, once again I doubt there will be anything special on said date. Probably yet another game mode.

to be more accurate jan 24th lol
Before that. I am sure a tester will eventually leak things, or a kid will steal one from the shipments and have it days before release, and information will flood the internet (and Youtube especially) much like Halo 3.

Um... another magic date? Let's not bring up any more false hope and just wait less than two months.

im not believe it...im saying could there be one? it could be a coincidence...

doesnt really matter, we'll know the starting roster/all of the characters pretty soon anyway, through corocoro or some crazy guy who has brawl days/weeks before anyone else.

There is a pattern: RANDOMNESS!

Aim the dart at the dartboard. Sakurai has HORRIBLE AIM, and sometime Miyamoto, Kojima, and others throw the dart for the update. Sakurai hit the center a couple of times (Ike [first confirmed character by the Dojo], Sonic, Stage Builder, etc), but most of the time he hits someone 3 miles away delivering pizza. The dartboard originated from when Miyamoto thought of ideas for a "new game".

So he aimed at this dartboard, and missed, and hit a VHS of King Kong in Japan, a ladder in America, and a Italian plummber in Italy. Thus, that gave him the idea of the original "Donkey Kong"! :grin: That is how Super Mario Bros., Zelda, Metroid, F-Zero, Kirby Star Fox (he hit a piece of KFC chicken), and Super Smash Bros. came into existense. Don't ask how I know....I'm a inside source! :chuckle:
