Yep, seems like the 35 character is true. Ugh. I seriously don't see why he'd leave Mewtwo out, let alone some of the more popular requests for newcomers...

Game over. Prophets win.

Hand in your dignity and hope at the door as you leave.

Not suprising, it's Rob the accessory too. He was in mario kart ds, why not put him in brawl, I'm now 1000% I was right about the 35 roster, and how can people say ROB sucks when we havn't seen any video of game play or seen any moves yet.

I think we owe an apology to some of the prophets.

I wonder what ROB's moveset will be like... lol, at least I'm excited to play as him... wish he was Ridley or Geno though

Iwata "This number of characters in SSBB is truly impressive"

Yeah right. He obviously didn't see the character list and was spouting bs.

Oh...my...XDDDDDDDDDDD
I still don't believe that the 35 roster is true:in fact,there is the possibility that there are other characters that debunk it...
However,I don't know why,but I like it...:chuckle:

I still don't believe in Wolf. I refuse. It's just not right. Metroid should get another real character before Star Fox. They already have Fox and Falco.

****. Don't close this thread, close Every Thread. This sucks unimaginably. What the hell where they thinking. Why were they so lazy? We may never understand. But I'm serious, Sakurai and his team blew it. They did not put enough emphasis on Playable Characters even when they knew the game was going to be On-line. So instead of the joyous surprise of fighting a bunch of different characters you get a small number of fighters most of which are vets and or clones, some of which are turd nuggets like Celda link and Rob (the close to virtual boy in crappiness gimmick accesory). That is the sucks, big-time. The game will be good and all . . . it could have just been really good.

You have to admit R.O.B. is truly the greatest WTF character of all time.
Not really, I'd say that position definitely stays with G&W (as far as SSB is concerned). After all, it's not as if there was *any* indication that he was even being considered for Melee; R.O.B. made a recent appearance in Mario Kart, giving him some relevance to modern times. It just doesn't seem as "out there" as G&W.

It's the nightmare melee all over agian. Well it was fun while it lasted to have hope for ( add numerous characters here) though still that doesn't mean the 35 is true....just getting closer to being true. Hmm. Maybe I'll consider getting an Xbox or PS3 instead if this is true.

Sorry but thats just how I feel. I'll still buy the game but all my hype for it has just packed it's bags and did a swan dive out a 10 story building into solid concrete.

Is there even any point for my signature anymore??? Bah,I'll change it later.

But Brawl needed a new WTF, and ROB fits the bill perfectly(judging by everyone's reaction). :)

What's everyone got against ROB? Personally I'm really glad it's not ROB 64, and is THE WTF ROB, you must admit he's quite a good WTF.

To be honest, I'm not disappointed with ROB. If I had Mewtwo instead of Wolf, then I'd quite like the roster. Lack of Mewtwo hurts my soul.

Poor Mewtwo :(

I don't have a problem with Robot. He's cool with me. It's just I hope that prophet is wrong with the Wolf thing... Cel shaded Link isn't that bad, but there are better choices for a character. F-Zero and Metroid both need another representative. Wolf over Ridley? Cel Link over Black Shadow? Come on now...

I have no problem if there's only 35 characters. But the one from the prophet? I just can't accept it.

Yeah, what i like about R.O.b. is he is the original ROB, and not ROB64

And remember... the 35 char. roster had ROB64

So there is still hope. But i'm ok twith this roster: olimar, yoshi, dedede, rob and falco *_* AND IKE *_* AND SNAKE AND SONIC *_*

Well, at least ROB is cool. I rather like him, and hope he's good enough to compete but not so good the scene fills up with robots.

On the other hand... if WW Link and Wolf are in, I will die a little inside. Star Fox didn't need another character, and Young Link's old design was perfectly serviceable if they wanted to leave him in (although he could easily have been replaced). I'm sad Mewtwo seems to be gone, replaced by Lucario, of all pokemon. Really, Lucario? WTF?

I'd been hoping for someone actually cool, like Megaman, Bomberman, or Geno. To tell the truth, I'd been hoping for Locke and/or Edgar from Final Fantasy III/VI, but that idea never had a snowball's chance in Hell anyway.

This sucks. I'm so glad I didn't pre-order this game.

DAMM!T PEOPLE!!!

R.O.B. was created to pass the NES off as a toy, without ROB the NES wouldn't have sold in America, the NES single-handedly revived the gaming industry after the crash.

So sit down, shut up and show our savior some respect!!

Take a second to think, past your NERD RAGE over R.O.B.

ROB blows. End of story. There is no positive spin to put on this.
What you mean is: ROB has been confirmed instead of a character that I expected to be in the game.

*sigh*

At least there's still Wolf to look forward to. But Wolf over Krystal, even with Falco in? It's just wrong, dad.
