Airdodging confirmed. Look at Mario.

 

[cubaisdeath]

For all those who said Giga Bowser wouldn't be in it...in your ****ing face.

 

[BentoBox]

Giga Bowser won't be seen much once most ppl get serious about the game... Nice addition but it is only accessible via items~

 

[Engo]

Anyone notice that the Samurai Goro update also released a new F-Zero Character icon?


Captain Falcon?=O


I'm pretty sure he will be in it though.

YES! Nice catch there!

 

[Chibirobo]

Great,now I really wish I would have stayed up for the update! Anyway,Giga Bowser looks like badass incarnate right now. You know,someone on the boards mentioned yesterday that GB was going to be Bowser's final smash,and I blew him off! With Bowser's new look,new "flavor",and this Giga Bowser thing,I think its safe to say that Bowser will be the king of the top tier!

 

[megachao24]

Bowser: "Give me some blood, you punks that nelgected me!"

At last, playing as Giga Bowser without an AR is a sweet deal. Time to unleash hell upon all who oppose him!

Giga Bowser rocks! I hope they have something to do with crazy or master hand as well; mabye as an assist trophie.

 

[Onifrio]

Not only did this update confirm Giga-Bowser but it confirmed airdodging. I'm not quite sure how they can have air dodging without wave dashing.

 

[lanky_gunner]

who cares about wavedashing?! i only care that bowser has the coolest final smash so far! i love the fear in the fighters as they run away while he screams in the air. if i saw giga bowser, i'd probably sh*t my pants, and i think that's what everyone is doing in the pics.

giga bowser ftw!

 

[CBNJ]

Yeah, Bowser will definitely be top tier during Brawl, no more Fox/Falco/Marth dominating the competition.

 

[Onifrio]

Idk Toad can totally take gigabowser.

Also, for you folks saying bowser will be top tier...

1.)Stop assigning characters tiers the game isn't out yet.

2.)Toad could seriously own gigabowser in a fight.

3.)There is no cow level

On a lighter note... in seven days it is nintendo's turn at E3.

I got a phone call from Nintendo and when i answered it they said "seven days.....you will watch E3". Needless to say i was creeped out.

Having air dodging is a good sign that wavedashing is a possibility, but it's not a guarantee. Remember that to the programmers are now quite aware of wavedashing, so I'm sure it will not be hard to "fix" if they decide to eliminate it from the game, I would think that IF wavedashing is in, it'll purposely be part of the game, and probably made easier to do.

I think Bowser will be a lot of a higher tier now, but not because of Giga, I don't think in most tourneys they can use item. Giga is like a item (imo).

Still what a good update, best let. Is it just me or is this week been sick for updates or what.

^^^ My thoughts exactly!

Solid points, and I think WD will stay because the pros helping Sakurai with Brawl probably like it and want to keep it. It can be a very strategically benefitting move to say the least.

^^^ Agreed 100%, and also very solid points. We keep getting better and better updates everyweek. Maybe this means we'll get WW Link the last week, lol!

Yeah, it really has! To be honest,I don't think it'll keep up. I think it will be something lame like "How to knock your enemy of the stage" for tonight and tomorrow.

 

[The Bino]

Air Dodging was confirmed a long a$s time ago, why are you guys just thinking it was confirmed just now

The Basic Rules

 

[THK]

What do you mean airdodging confirmed? In all the earlier screens you often saw Pikachu air dodging. o_o

 

[chiyo-chan' dad]

Don't sat thing like that, I thing the way their going this week, they are just too hot right now.

 

[THK]

Well honestly, the You Must Recover article wasn't that bad. I think it gave a decent example of how much easier it is to recover.

My sentiments exactly.

Aside, why would any programmer in thier right mind purposefully put in wavedashing, now matter HOW strategic it is, when you already have the normal walking/running code in there?

 

[Waenke]

Giga Bowser? Awesome, but this is horrible news. Big charcters = no my stages like Hyrule Temple. =[ No even near close tight fit spaces is what i'm tryin to say.

 

[SpitFire15]

Giga Bowser, huh?

The best thing would be to try to evade him for the short period of time his transformation lasts, I guess. But he won't be top tier just because of a Final Smash because he is cursed with poor speed.

...And grate power!!!

 

[Chibirobo]

I really hope Giga Bowser is the only morphing FS,unless the character transforms,does one huge attack,and then changes back.

That's what I hope too. Giga needs to be the one and only.

 

[SSBMasterFox]

No Ganondorf to Ganon BACONs?

 

[Krytha]

Gigabowser owned by Toad? Toad sucks monkey balls.

Anyway, its finally a slew of great updates. Bowser might still not be top tier because I doubt competitive players will be playing with final smashes on. This just means that BowZOR is now 500% more kickass in casual games.

 

[SpitFire15]

Quoted for truth.

 

[DarkKnight077]

Rawr...I still wants to play as Link or maybe Ridley. Giga Bowser <3. He's sooo awesome now.

 

[lanky_gunner]

i do want a transformation for ganondorf, but one huge attack seems the best way to go anyway since giga is still bowser with the same moves and everything

 

[BentoBox]

What I really want to see now is how Clones got their movesets totally revamped. Falco and Ganon coming to mind 8].

 

[chiyo-chan' dad]

I just hope that ganondorf is in the game.

 

[lanky_gunner]

he'll be there, it's hard to doubt that

 

[thesage]

Zelda's kick is also confirmed. The zoom function on my wii shows her kicking in the fourth giga b. pic.

I hope it doesn't have to be sweetspotted again...

 

[Krytha]

^ Of course it will. Otherwise they'll kill its power level.

Yeah, that would work. In fact,I like that idea.

im pretty sure the debuggers for melee found wavedashing, but decided to leave it in anyway...at least thats what i've heard
