Does anyone think they will be announcing new characters for Brawl ( Veterans or Newcomers)?

I certainly hope there will still be a few surprises left... (Sheik)

No one knows, there might still be characters. Infact, they might even make an update called:

"You must Unlock Characters"

<To fully enjoy this game you will need to unlock character>

<Beat Classic Mode!!!>

<Now fight your opponent to unlock them.>

<Congrats! You've unlocked Jigglypuff.>

It's actually a double/triple update that shows Jigglypuff also. Maybe another one for Luigi.

Well I think everyone would enjoy to see more characters, but how depressing would that be if there weren't.

If Falco is confirmed, he wont be the same. I don't think you will be able to short hop laser, because there is lag from aerial B-moves now (at least from what I've heard of the E For All Demo).

And however unlikely, I would love to see Megaman as well.

They don't even need to put it in the updates, but I need megaman in the game. Capcom has had its greastest megaman (and megaman X) games on nintendo consoles. So they need to have him in the game.

You won't SHL, but you can run and shoot. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

No, he said that the best Megaman Xs were on the SNES, which is simply not the case, so good job destroying my point.

Metal Gear Solid was on the Gamecube too.

Cless your signature kicks large portions of ***. They look like new sprites, but I know most of the people in your siggy. Its from the supremely awesome tales of phantasia. I know cress, lester (the molester), mint, arche, claus, suzu (the rawest looking chick with the illusion patch thingie), and I think diaos or dios whatever the hell him name is (you know 3 transformations guy). What are the sprites from, the psp version?

And I personally thought that mega man X was the best game in the x series, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. Plus it had the hadoken, nothing is more satisflying then 1 hit k.o.-ing the mechanical spider with a hadoken.

Lester? What's this nonsense? Cress and Claus, fine. You only played the GBA version, but the man's name is Chester regardless of version. Also, I don't know what you mean by rawest looking for Suzu. Anyway, you missed Amy and Mirald, and Dhaos is the name you're looking for. The sprites are from Narikiri Dungeon 2 and 3 on the GBA. The PSP sprites are based on those sprites, but they aren't the same.

I just liked Megaman X4 a lot because Zero was fully playable (not that X3 nonsense) and he wasn't outrageously broken like in X5 and X6.

To be on topic for once, I think they'll only introduce whatever 3rd parties are left, if there are any, and maybe one or two more vets for starters.

I feel pretty sure that Sakurai is still holding back a few characters.

I honestly think Krystal (Star Fox), Claus (MOTHER 3), and Bowser Jr. (Mario) all have very good chances of having been added as playable characters.

I really don't want to see Bowser Jr. It'll be like Mario and Bowser mooshed together into some unholy union.

Rawest=coolest looking. When she has on the illusion patch thing (I'm not sure of the items name, but it makes copies follow suzu on the battle screen) she really looks cool . Ah its chester the molester, lol. I haven't played the game in awhile, sorry.

But none of that matters, I'm just happy to see those guys again.

Yeah, the Copy Patch is cool. Makes one of her skills completely pointless. I wonder how cool you'd think she was if I told you that she is 11.

Probably only couple more. We're most likely only getting starters until just around the release date, and I can't imagine that we have many more starters to be confirmed.

That would actually be pretty good. Rather than showing ALL of the characters on the site. They could give us glimpses or sillouttes of veterans we are waiting for or the newcomers. :)

@CLESS; (I hope this doesnt come out angry) What do you mean by bowser jr would be an unholy union of bowser and mario? The only things mario and bowser jr have in common would be; mastery of fire, speech(bowser has that also), and thats about it really. Again i dont want this to sound rude. I think my baby sister is cool and she's two (I am 19).

Metal Gear Solid was on the PSX too yet Solid Snake is in. Point destroyed.
Fantastic "destroyal." You KIDS always seem to forget that the first Metal Gear was an Old-School NES game.

Original Mega Man and Bomberman would be awesome, since they were such staples of the original NES that really helped cement it as THE thing back in the day. (Mind you, so did Bubble Bobble and Tecmo Bowl and countless others, but, you know.)

I'd also like Andy from Advance Wars to show up so I can *brain people with a wrench.*

I just think that it'd be like having something similar Bowser's moveset with Mario's weight. It could be even worse than that, and they could play off the whole Shadow Mario aspect from Sunshine. Also, I just don't like the character, so I'm pretty biased. I'm a fan of Bowser's original children, may they rest in piece.

I think there will be the announcement of more newcomers and veterans, but i'm hoping for Zelda's FS to be her turning into Shiek.

Well, before the game comes out, they'll announce the rest of the vets (Sheik, Capt. F., Jiggles, Luigi,). I'm not sure about Mewtwo, Ganondorf, or Marth though. They'll also announce the rest of the 3rd parties because they'll build massive hype. And after that, I have no idea.

The fact that we haven't seen Luigi up to this point is proof enough that we're still lacking character updates. There is a 0% chance that Nintendo would leave him out of the game. Then there's captain falcon as well. That pretty much clears the veteran table, as for Newcomers...Captain Olimar. Point Blank.

Yeah I think we are still looknig at a few character updates. Probably one around christmas and one right before the game comes out just to increase hype. I think there will be one or two more third party characters, maybe an additional one or two newcomers, and a few more veterans announced.

Probably brawling
yes, since they had to make everything up for fox, make up stuff for Falco. as for captain falcon, they can't replace him with black shadow. as for luigi, he's a smash icon, and unreplaceable. Cpt. Olimar is unique, and there isn't any reason he can't be in. Pac-Man eats, jumps, and punches, so that's not hard to moveset. Ganon basically is confirmed since they screwed him up the first time.

To be honest, I think Falco does not have an 85% chance of being in. I would love to see him in, but he was a clone character. If he did come back, he would probably have an entirely different move set, making him much unlike the Falco we have come to know and love. And as for Captain Olimar... wtf? Everyone is like in love with the idea of him being in this game. Pretty large rumor... If he is in, I can't imagine his moveset. What is he going to do? Throw Pikmin?

No, this time around, the Pikmin are going to throw him. Like it was meant to be. Like...de s t i n y......

Captain Falcon is in for sure. Beloved character since 64. And they already showed a Samurai Goro Assist Trophy so........

Who else wants to see a Battletoad in Brawl?
