you know how sometimes they'll have small things in the game that aren't that important but are just neat to have? I was thinking it'd be kinda cool if you could change the roster. Like grab a picture of someone (a la wii channels) and move it elsewhere. It's totally useless, but I think it'd be kinda cool to move the roster around to your liking. What are somethings like this you could see added to brawl?

I think every character should have unlockable COSTUMES. not color changes.

It would be alot to add though. Example, Mario could have a Doctor Mario costume. That means all his sprites are changed. Example--> It'll be like playing as doctor mario, except it's the exact same as regular mario. Only change is the sprite/graphics.

Some for mario could include---> Paper Mario, Doctor Mario, Shadow Mario, Metal Mario!!,Polygon Mario.
Some for Ike could include --> Sigard, Roy, Marth, Leaf, Pretty much all the main chars from FE series.
Some for Pikachu could include --> 8 bit gameboy pikachu, Riachu, Pichu,

You get the picture. The only probably is time, and or the graphics/sprites interfering with the game mechanics. Someone would exploit one of the costumes which would lead to it's fall.

Maybe too time consuming and risky, but still cool

Adjustable color schemes for the main menu!

Or even your own personal greeting based on what you've been doing!

Err, actually he's talking about being able to move around the icons on the character select screen.

I've thought alternate costumes would be cool, too (like Dr. Mario for Mario, for example). It's highly unlikely, I think - the color-change post hurt it a lot (That is NOT Fusion Suit Samus! Just the colors. >_>). Still, we can't know for sure until the game comes out, or Sakurai says 'no, that's not happening'.

The re-arranging the character select idea is fun. XD Though, might confuse your friends when they come over. "Where is SONIC?!"

This would also give haters the ability to hide characters they hate behind ones they do. "There is no Sonic." >_> *puts Mario in front of him* (Just an example, I like Sonic. XD)

Personalized Icons you could replace the characters normal icon for yours. If you playing online you could use your icon instead of of the normal character one. You could mix and match to make a custom one like halo, or use a grid like thing to make your own from scratch.

Necessary? Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine?

I like random small additions such as those stats you would get after a game.. I hope they keep that in

You know what would be good? Small animation changes.

Example: When you are on the halberd level, FLYING IN THE SKY, wouldn't you think sonic's spikes would be waving, or have marios hat fall off due to the fact they are moving very fast in the sky? I think it would seem alot more realistic.

also, i vote for HATLESS MARIO alternate color change or costume.

Burn makes where an attack or explosive hit, including blank marks where a character blocked the attack. The problem that will keep it out? Extra engine work, and the fact those shadow-burns are a very, very bad memory for Japan and the States even more so.

Something I've always wanted to see, however, is more detail used on what can knock an item out of a character's hands. A heavier combo or bigger attack should be able to knock a character back and the item flying with it. Possibly even a lighter, harder to use move that just disarms some one. Imagine Fox's Blaster being able to knock a hammer out of some one's hand, it would actually have a purpose but still do little damage.

but then that would be too easy. Fox users would just spam laser and the hammer is gone...

UNLESS.

There was a small percentage(maybe 10%), that if you shoot someone with the laser, it knocks the item/hammer off of them. Oh, and that reminds me of a good item idea.

Oil.

The item lets you throw oil on someone. Then, if you hit them with marios fireball, they go into flames, and blow up.

These ideas are quite cool, especially the alternate costumes one.

I do like the moving the roster around one, too. When i joined back in 2001 i made a n00bish thread about how Mario was always first in the character select screens. While i didn't really care, it'd be fun to move it around so Wario, or Pikachu were.

Changing roster postition = Awesome.

I'd arrange them by tier. (sorry mewtwo)
lol. "Dont you love me?"
"Not until you get better."

It's small additions that make you say "Oh, that's really cool!" That may not be super integral to the game, but are really just icing on the cake that make a game look and feel well done.

I think unlockable costumes or accessories would be the best. I would love that.

Everyone mentioned things I already thought of so, hm...It'd be pretty cool if you could maybe unlock separate pictures for the characters on the "Choose your Character" screen. Maybe just one or two for each character.

well for tournies or online play, maybe only original or colors shold be alowed.

anyway, my little idea was in the last game, i would often play multiplayer and single player at the same time. I used the c stick for multiplayer but in single u can't. a little option to have the camera stay the same and use of c-stick in single player mode (option of course)

*rubs chin* I see what you mean. Like if you had a set roster when you bought the game, but you could purchase extra characters with Wiipoints.

thats a fu*king stupid idea. why the hell should we have to pay more than what we did to buy the game just to use all the characters? you have to be an idiot to like this idea...


I'd like to see different menu themes. like there would be the main Brawl theme, but you could unlock a Mario theme, where the background would look like the Mushroom Kingdom; and a Zelda theme, Metroid, ect...

Some for Ike could include --> Sigard, Roy, Marth, Leaf, Pretty much all the main chars from FE series.
the problem with that is that Marth is going to be playable, and Sigrud is very likely. the other problem is that they all use completely different Weapons and fighting styles; in fact, the only other Lord that could even come close to playing like Ike is Roy... and not all the Main characters from FE use swords. Ephraim uses a spear, and Erika uses a rapier (still a sword, but WAY to different to count.)

I agree. Pay for characters? Um, no. This isn't Guitar Hero.

Themed backgrounds would be awesome. I'm sure it's easy to program into the game, too, so why not? I'd love having me a hawt Metroid theme.

YUSH!!

also, I'd like to be able to choose the music that plays on the menus. weather it would come with the theme (Mario music for the Mario theme) or not, I would like some more verity. this is lone of the things that I would be surprised if they didn't include; because it wouldn't be that hard...
