No Dojo updates from Dec. 29th - Jan. 6th

[RyokoYaksa]

Not much to say about this one. With today's update, we were also greeted with this Notice up at the top.

Notice - All seven languages of Smash Bros. Dojo will take a year-end holiday break from posting following December 28. We plan to resume posts on January 7.

Have a happy new year.

New Year's update = nothing! Lawls

 

[SonicMario]

Yeah. Disappointing. But at least most of us is handling it better then Hippochinfat

 

[KazenoZ]

lol, atleast that's the end of speculation for New Year's update XD

A great update though, loving the Brawl menu icon ^^

I agree, it really does look good. I actually wondered what they would use for it, and now I wonder what the select screen looks like, on the Wii menu.

And hey, I'll be out of town for a while so it does not hurt me too much since I wouldn't be catching updates much anyway. Feel bad for the rest of you though. Hopefully January will see some great updates, end of December really saw a lot of improvements.

 

[InvincibleAgent]

When are we gonna see "OMG JAN 7 UPDATE WILL ROXXORS!" threads?

 

[india3]

darn...my b'day was jan 4 and i was really looking forward to that update..

It's not anymore?

 

[ZenJestr]

.....a week without DOJO..................................so I guess Youko takes 3 weeks off then...

 

[kaydon_esker]

There was speculation on the December 31st update? Even though Japan doesn't celebrate New Years then? Wow, missed that. I'm only annoyed because of no birthday update for me (which just happened to be the 31st) but ah well, it probably would have been "Pulling yourself up from ledges!" or something...

 

[TheMagicalKuja]

haha oh wow

means more sleep until I go back to college

 

[NukeA6]

Sucks but it doesn't hurt me. There's already enough info to satisfy. In fact, so much that I had to reserve Smash Bros Brawl for fear that it may be sold out by the time I go out to get it.

 

[shipoffools]

well i suppose this is a good opprotunity to break my addiction to the site every morning, and this way ill be ready come jan 24 not to have the game spoiled for me.

so long, morning updates. i hardly knew thee.

 

[Shock the Hedgehog]

Obviously the reason we got a double update today.

Though I think we're all going to have withdrawl symptoms now....

 

[SirPainsalot]

darn...my b'day was jan 4 and i was really looking forward to that update..

Count January 7th as your birthday update then. Just hope its good.

 

[M.K]

Ooh, I didn't even see this!

It's actually good for me, as a certain topic I was about to create...well, let's just say I can create it now.

 

[Kittah4]

I really don't mind a week where I can sleep better, but it will be a very long week.

The timing of this has been extremely poor. First a character drought and now an UPDATE drought? Right on the cusp of the Japanese release, no less. How dissapointing.

Unless the 14~ updates leading to the Japanese release are mindblowing, the Dojo will have really fallen flat in its days leading up to the coveted full reveal.

 

[VA]

Didn't Grayfox already make one of these and then you closed it and made your own?

 

[Veysey]

As much as losing my morning updates disappoints me, I've kinda been hoping that they stopped the updates anyways. I'd like to have some surprises when I tear into this game.

Over six months of consistent and, for the most part, useful updates is pretty impressive.

 

[RyokoYaksa]

*3 people* made threads, which was the breaking point where I decided it would be best to make a thread here in Dojo Updates to keep the crap in one place. You can kindly bite me if you don't like it for some reason.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

The company does need to rest after doing Brawl updates week after week after week. They have families to go to after all.

 

[gamer8]

This is crap he has to resume it when school starts...

 

[Sage of Pwnage]

well lets watch some college football bowl games and start threads on that!

I'm only annoyed because of no birthday update for me (which just happened to be the 31st) but ah well, it probably would have been "Pulling yourself up from ledges!" or something...

Japan celebrates New Years like crazy, which is probably why he's taking a break, they close like everything from the 31st to the 2rd or 3rd, so it's even bigger than Christmas for them, which is like a festive time but nothing more, they just decorate a lot. So I was actually expecting a huge update, but this makes since as well. Actually, they consider New Years as a total refresh type of thing, they can't have any debt and they have to have a totally clean house. They don't even cook from the 31st to the 2nd or 3rd, they cook a ton ahead of time. So it actually would have been funny if they just stopped the DOJO on the 31st and completely started retelling old updates, like a complete restart.

Hilarious.

/sarcasm

I would weep tears of pain and agony if he just gave up updates we already know until the 26th. Not even cool.

As for me, I'm just glad I can go to bed before 2 AM next week. It'll help me get some sleep before I go back to college. ^_^ But I will miss the updates.

 

[Big Burn]

all the updates have been so worthless lately this doesn't really bother me

 

[-NEOLINK-]

Sakurai is just building up suspense. I'm confident he'll give us some great updates, maybe he's just been holding out on char updates to surprise us with multiple char confirmations in a week.

Forget about it. I'm sure we all want a big update on January 7th (I'm one of them), but I for one know we won't. I am as close to 100% sure as you can get on things like this.

 

[Stiputation]

Hurray!
Now I can quit waking up at 5:45 EVERY morning just to see the updates!

 

[Tyrannotaur]

Wowz to this.. I can understand needing to take some holiday time off..but still it's lame.

Of course we all know that January 7th update will be something like " YOU MUST PUT THE DISC IN YOUR WII TO PLAY!".

Would be nice if we at least got Rayquaza though.

 

[soviet prince]

dang I was actually looking forward to updates being out of school and all.

 

[KaosAssassin]

OK I figured it out. He is taking a break, so on the last 14 days before the japanese release date will all be character updates, bringing us to a total of 37 characters (sounds like a good number)

I remember something about Sakurai wanting to release all the characters himself anyways and it would be an awesome 14 days, but don't really expect this to happen

 

[Chidosengan]

.....

The 4 ugly weeks continue!!

 

[Brawlmatt202]

I said this before and I'll say it again:

[Link Sharingan]

well they are people so they deserve it

so happy new year Sora

 

[connordoc]

Too bad... I was looking forward to New Years.

Ah well, We're gonna get all the info we need the day the Japeneese version is releaced...

 

[Prax]

Hopefully the last few weeks will be good updates though. i dont think we have had a new character since Dedede.

 

[Jakatsu]

I personally hope that we get good updates, but don't hold out on characters. We might get one, maybe Sheik, but thats about it. I'm sure we wont see the unlockable characters until we get the game. Heres hoping for 40!

I've been hopeing for 40 characters since brawl was announced...

but I don't think it will go that much...

sure SSBM had alot more characters then ssb64, and more that is confirmed for SSBB, but half of SSBM characters were clones anyways...

it's kinda hard to have alot of characters and not have any "clones"

 

[Xanderous]

I wonder how many threads there will be on Monday asking "Where's the update?"
