In Melee, everyone knows about the trophies you collected through playing, they’d appear in single player as items that you’d pick up and thusly unlock the trophy, also the bonus “Grab the Trophy” bonus stage, and even the Trophy event matches where you’d actually fight on the trophy that you’d unlock when you win.

They extended the urge to reply to collect all 250 of them, and a lot of people were wondering wether they’d make a return in Brawl. While the fact that the characters were trophies (not to mention the Assist Trophies Item) people assumed they’d be making a return. However after todays update, it’s a good sign that they aren’t.

The new collectable for Brawl is Stickers. As you play, you’ll pick them up. Wether they drop in multiplayer, I would doubt it, but we don’t know either way 100%

As you collect them they get stored away in your Album. You can then pluck them from your album and stick them on, for lack of a better word, paper.

You can then save them for future use. Sakurai suggests using the stickers to make a comic book. Speech Bubble stickers? Or perhaps these can then be accessed on the Photo Channel and sent to other Mii’s?

<img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/various03_070815d-l.jpg" alt="Do you want to save? Yes, yes, OH GOD, YES!" />

Stickers come from a number of previous games, with Dice from Mario Party, A picture of Wario from Mario Soccer on GameCube and others.

The “save screenshots” concept seemed veeeery interesting to me. I’ve always thought that instead of Camera Mode, they should just build a save option into the pause menu. How many times have you paused right when something cool happened, played with the angle and zoom, and then thought, “I wish I could save this.” ?

(sorry for the double post)

Also, at first I thought that globe/world logo was from Earthbound or Mother 3, but it’s really from this game: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-cm-49-en-70-1fi0.html

Interesting.

And maybe my previous post is false… now I’m thinking what he said means that because stickers are easier to get a hold of than trophies they’re more conveniant, thusly trophies are gone… *shrug* his posts leave so many questions left unanswered.

I suppose that Bit Generations thing follows with the Brain Age blob guy being there too. The only ones I don’t recognize are the sheriff and the white monkey with its hands up.

Whoa hey, the introduction of Stickers is by no mean a confirmation of Trophies not returning. It’s completely possible that they’ll coexist, especially with the “Stickers are easier to get a hold of than trophies” comment.

I don’t agree with trophies not being included, it’s not a personal issue it’s just that the way it’s worded leads me to beleive that on top of stickers they may also have trophies or possibly some other form of collectable. Why does everybody assume that there has to be only one.

I think trophies as a whole would possibly not return just because so many of them would be repeats of Melee (unless they changed the way trophies work, like they were animated or something)

However, this post’s wording (saying theyre easier to come by than trophies), combined with the fact that stickers arent nearly as interesting to view, and probably dont come with loads of text explaining them, hints that trophies ARE making a come back, IMO.

With the inclusion of that Bit sticker, I can’t help but speculate that there might in fact be an item that will alter the gravity setting during a match.

What’s “Bit”?

If one collects these stickers during matches or one-player mode or whatever, wouldn’t they be hard to see?

Maybe, and this puttin it out there, you can put them on a character then save it under a name!

Or maybe, if trophies return, you can put them on trophies.

@ EvilToad: Yeah it was really annoying having a mode to save pictures but being completely unable to do it when cool things happened in normal fights, cus lets be honest, whoever bothered with camera mode when they could fight?
Oh and the white monkey is from DK jungle beat (the platformer you control using the bongo’s). Awesome game but barely anyones played it :(
The sherrif looks like something from warioware

@ vinternet: You make a good point. Half the trophies would be the same, which makes them seem a bit pointless. Maybe there’s stickers and then there’s some other place for explaining characters’ moves and things. That’s the only feature from trophies that they need to replace after all, the information on other games was great but they’ve already done that once now.

I figure the site says stickers are easier to collect than trophies because they’re thinner and can be kept in a book.

I hope we don’t get updates now announcing specific stickers like we do for pokéball pokémon and assist trophies. I don’t think we will but that would be annoying.

It’s under Game Modes, so I doubt they’d bore us with specific stickers.

That would seem to be a bit much if there’s anything like the amount of stickers as there are trophies in melee. And people would not like it at all…

Well, it does give a purpose for multiple collectibles. I remember wanting to trade all of those extra trophies i’d accumulated with others.

I don’t know about anyone else but this update seems so far to be completely useless. It’s not a bad feature but why would anyone want to jack around with this if they play brawl. Only if you can send it to the photo channel will this be of any use.

Are you kidding me, many trophies were missed, where are the punchout trophies, diddy kong,any of the new pokemon, fire emblem trophies, metroid prime trophies, twilight princess trophies, mother trophies, kid icarus trophies, nightmare, other animal crossing trophies, and various other trophies from other games like EBA, The brain training games, etc.

so what do you guys think of the brain training blob being playable. Or would he be a better AT. I think he’d be a humorous and intellegent addition to brawl (he’s got his own series of games and is something different). The icon can be the human mind.

when Sakurai said the thing about the screenshots, did he mean the screenshots become stickers? or that you could just save them? hmmmm

What would this brain-training blob do? Don’t post a full moveset, post a possible fighting skill.

I wonder If the stickers can also unlock new outfits for characters like Wario’s soccer outfit

I say he would not be strong, and would require (more) strategy to play as. I think he would be medium speed and have medium attack. Because he’s a blob wouldn’t take as much damage. Think of him as a tank.

No i won’t movesets are uninteresting. he would use his pointer as a short projectile. His B moves wouldn’t be powerful but he’d be given specials that confuse or over whelm the opponent like smacking the player with knowledge to shortly disable or confuse them, waving his wand forward to slam the player with a wave of math problems, or using creating a weight system and having a random animal fall on the other side shooting him up, random animals shoot him random heights. These aren’t to farfetched of ideas and bring something different to brawl. Defeating the player with sheer knowledge, brilliant!

FalcoRoy: I think the costume changes bring the most interesting assortment to brawl. Will the costumes just be color swaps or can you change into the doctor mario outfit or wario into his original outfit. Also Marth could change into a Roy outfit so it makes the allusion of you playing Roy. That way those who like the character can still have what they want.

homeless owned me with the moves…. i really like the idea of the weight system and the math slam thing. good job homeless *claps*

I think when you change costumes the new costume should have, different look, and the clone’s moveset.

horray rawk hawk cofirmed for brawl! i liked that guy i hope hes at the very least a normal trophy posibly an AT. hmm… what do you think of a paper mario stage? it could change from 2D to 3D like not real 3D but just a different stage. or maby a luigi mantion stage that would be simalar to hyrule castle from smash 64… nevermind. off topic. continue.

Dude, I want sonic in brawl more than anything too, but calm down! Every blog you do this. No-one can help you, you just have to wait patiently and hope.
Don’t post randomly completely off-topic that you want sonic in brawl, it’ll only make people hate on him and sonic fans more.
