"Presents" in return for delay
- Thread starter Pinoy
- Start date
I think Sakurai has no choice but to use these updates. What more can he tell us that is not character or subspace emissary based? And Japan's release is so close, even with a week delay, that we're going to be spoiled anyway.

I think that the only reason we got CO last week was to soften the blow of the delay, I don't think that was any indication of new characters every week.

yea i mean, we get a new character in olimar
we get the return of shiek
plus we get the first review of brawl
the updates will probably stop after the japan release so these last few ones will probably be the biggest

I don't think Sheik was a present for the delay. They had to reveal him because the Famitsu article revealed him. Kinda like the whole "Snake was shown at Konami's event so we have to reveal him on the Dojo" updates we got a while back.
There's a thread with these scans on the boards.

To make up for it, he should release all of the unconfirmed vets. I must know if Falco's back.

I don't know if Sheik was a "present" so much as, a requirement because of the review. Also note that every character's special moves are on their page in a little chart just like Sheiks. Captain Olimar's FS is "End of Day," sounds kind of post apocalyptic. The most interesting thing I feel is in today's update is that he got the designs from an original design that was going to be used in Twilight Princess, which means that at some build of the game Sheik was in it...hmmm...
Probably not. They already used the Sheik transformation thing in OoT, and it was a big plot point when they revealed that Sheik was Zelda. If they had used Sheik in TP, pretty much everyone would've known it was just Zelda again. And Zelda didn't really get that much screentime in TP anyways.
Eiji Aonuma probably just told them to make concept art for Sheik in case they wanted to make it an easter egg (ie. a costume hanging in the Hidden Village), but they never did.

So Olimar is pretty much this year/delay's Sonic. He knows how to bribe. Ah well.

I couldn't agree more! The updates have been PHENOMENAL since Olimar and even before. But olimar kind of kicked off the new year, now we have him, his moves, Snake's FS, and SHEIK! It's going to be GREAT until Japan's launch and perhaps even afterwards!! YES!!!
I have to agree with some of the other people here, the Sheik update was out of complete necessity due to Famitsu's review. On the other hand, I am glad that the good updates are back. Maybe we'll keep getting them until the game's release.

You're just being too self centered.

Because people did not play OOT so they have no clue who Sheik really is they just jump on the bandwagon and say oh yeah Sheik is awesome! Im so glad HE is back...
