Ah well I'm sure she will be balanced this time around. More chars the merrier.

Samus has an Alt costume, not just alt. colors. (Far left)

See any Brawl pics on that page?
They're just Samus's suits from MP1&2.
And lol @ anyone who said they were fake, they are clearly blind.

On the new commercials with Wind Waker Link in his PJs, I think they increases his chances of being in. :D

So, Snake's down special is planting C4, and if you hit down B again, it'll detonate. The article suggests planting it edge for guarding :D

And I'm 10000x more excited about the 40/40 than anything else here. Among many reasons, they cited the longer-than-expected single player and awesome music as reasons why the game is better.

I'm going to bed in like 5 minutes, but if there are any translations on the moves people want me to do quickly, I'll try. I'm kinda sick, so I don't have the willpower to try very hard :D

Whatever you can get done, even if it is a translation of one letter of katakana, is most welcome. Thank you, SamuraiPanda!

Shiek was confirmed again on the Dojo tonight. They listed her special moves with the update.....hopefully they dont do them as a separate update also. Meta-Knight's special moves part 2.

According to the Dojo, Sheik looks great! Also, apparently according to the site the design was created for twilight princess but never used. So NOW it makes sense (kind of). Anyway, Sheik haters lose.

Think Sakurai will pull a MetaKnight on us and give a Shiek Special Moves Update, despite that fact that he revealed her moveset?

Although by that logic, Zelda's Final Smash would be considered a "waste" update, too...

her new costume, although it looks kinda similar to LoZ:Ocarina, is so badass. notice the knife on her side.

Wow. Badass costume. I just hoped they nerfed her a bit.

I now look forward to Wednesdays. Could be a coincidence, but two characters in two weeks? Maybe Sakurai's gonna do it every week. I guess we'll know by next week ^_^

Well, I'm happy to note that Shiek has more than likely been nerfed.
Also, Sakurai referred to Sheik as a female, which is something nice to have cleared up.

I never really ruled out the possibility of Sheik being in completely, but the idea was slowly looming over me the closer we got to release and the lack of information we had about it. It just made so much sense for Zelda to retain her Twilight Princess capabilities, but this is fine and works too. I'm actually relieved that Sheik is in. One of those original characters that would be unfortunate to lose I think. Rapid fire daggers, a static whip, classic deku nut-splosion exit for her third jump. This may be overshadowed by the pistol whip (literally) wielding Samus in terms of comparing originality, but screw that, Sheik is one of the classic Melee characters, this is great news.

Although I know this, I'd like to see - where does it say that?
Use Zelda’s down special move to transform into Sheik! Once you do so, you’ll have access to a new character completely unique from Zelda.

Sheik doesn’t appear in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, but we based her model on a design that was drafted up during the development of that game.
One the word "her"



Notice the Chest area

Does anyone think that Shiek has bigger chest then Zelda? Maybe she used magic to "Enhance" them.

Wooow...Nintendo...F-U my friend. I'm in the states, so you can see by my time-o-post that I was woken in the literal MIDDLE of the NIGHT by this Dojo update; what a powerful disturbance. Not even Brawl's continual delays lowered my anticipation for this game, but Shiek...

and then we'll throw Sakurai off a building and shout "You must recover!"

That wouldn't make sense, as breasts are a complete hindrance in combat. Trust me, I'm a girl and I took TaeKwonDo for a few years. Plus, they're a weak spot in the worst place imaginable.
