So how would YOU handle the daily updates?

[Topaz989]

I don't know about you, but everytime there is a new update, some people would complain it was lame and how they are tired of all these "tiny updates". After being a long time Nintendo fan, I find these daily updates a blessing and applaud the man for providing ANY info.

So here's the deal, if you had to be the one to put the updates, how would you handle it?

 

[I Like Smash...]

the first thing i would do...
is get rid of the How to Play updates...

 

[ksadkiller]

release the starting roster with detail all at once and everyone will be happy

 

[FierceDeityWolf]

release the starting roster with detail all at once and everyone will be happy

Same here.

 

[Kaburii]

Not show any daily updates at all.

That way, when the latest update is revealed in a meeting, Japanese blog, or a gaming site, people would get really hyped up about it.

 

[burrito]

A new character every day!

Just kidding, I like the updates the way they are. I wish people would stop complaining about them.

 

[Demon_machinE]

I wouldn't do em at all. Seems like a lot of work that he doesnt have to do if he doesnt want to do.

 

[Shuma]

You really think there's someone right now uploading an update? I've seen other Companies give way more info than Nintendo, so whatever.

 

[0rion]

I'd give the fans what they really want! Namly us United States folk. I'd promise an inclusion of 60 playable characters tops! If DBZ Tenkaichi 2 can put in a $hit load of characters than so can Brawl! HOLLA!

 

[lukintosh]

Do a poll on what the fans like us would want, then release accordingly. If only Sakurai was reading this post.

 

[Fawriel]

Mine wouldn't be daily.

I would just post one big load of stuff every monday. Preferrably a big load of stuff that together seems really awesome, with occasional letdowns.

The problem right now is that we got too used to having updates. We already take them for granted, so now we don't feel "yay, we get updates" but "Today's update was decidedly unsatisfying."

I would also find a way to make it update at a time that's not really crappy for one half of the world... if that's even possible, that is.

 

[Bli33ard]

I wish people would appreciate each update as it comes. Imagine, I think 99.9% of the people here would choose updates such as these (including new characters, etc) rather than be left in the dark in terms of what the game is going to have in it.

Anyway, I think I'd keep it how it is. Yeah, I know that's an easy thing to say, but with myself being a musician and all, I ENJOY the music updates, when other people will be saything things like: "OMG what's this piece of shi'". But we're all in the same boat - things that won't be released during the build up will have to be discovered in the final version.

So hush.

 

[h1roshi]

i would make one gran announcement ( like the starting roster, followed by many many small updates. or updates on the characters like their b moves. the rest of my updates would be just like the ones we are getting now. items, stages, music....peace

-hiroshi

 

[Leobenmc]

A Calendar before I release Updates
"How to Play Week 1"
"Starting Character Week 1"
"Item Week 1"
"Stage Week 1"
So I know which weeks I can lie in for

 

[ZenJestr]

I would keep it how it is....except that on Item Updates I would put 2 Items a day...

 

[Darkurai]

I'd start the week out with a minor update, then progressively get better as I end the week with something BIG!

 

[TheMagicalKuja]

Though I lol at the clowns saying "EVERYTHING AT ONCE", I vote doing all returning characters in the starting roster in the first week, followed by one newcomer each week, other than that I won't change a thing.

Though I like the 5 shot weekly instead of 1 daily thing.

 

[End Game]

This is what i would do:

1 Returning character a week

Said character's special moves (all of them, mind you)

A music update

An item update (two of them)

Last one a SE update or some new game mode stuff (my music, special brawl)

Of course all weeks wouldn't follow this exact pattern, i would probably switch items with some other stuff.

 

[GreenKirby]

Most people here are gonna be dumb enough to get all of the good updates out first, then have a drought of mediorce updates from then till Dec 3.

 

[Arteen]

I'd probably have updates similar to these, except with more double updates, especially for item, how-to-play, and music updates. I would release all the moves for veteran characters soon after introducing them, but not necessarily for the newcomers. I'd probably also release move lists for A attacks and grabs too. Maybe like a "grab" or "arial" or a few "ground" updates. This would also primarily be for returning characters.

I would also find a way to make it update at a time that's not really crappy for one half of the world... if that's even possible, that is.

You know, you don't have to check the site right when they update.

 

[Fawriel]

You know, you don't have to check the site right when they update.

That's a comfortable 9am for me here in Germany.

That's right, people, I care for you! *shakes fist*

 

[lukintosh]

And even more comfortable 3pm just after school. Hurray for +8 GMT!

 

[Thunderslf]

I don't really care if I get a bad update, I just ignore it and get on with my life and do something else. I think it's just ridiculous that people here have temper tauntrums over a game update if it isn't spectacular and amazing. Frankly, I don't even put THAT much of an importance on these updates as most people here seem to do. If an update is bad, I ignore it and move on with my life. If it's good, I'm happy for about 15 minutes then I do something else, unless I have nothing to do that day.

 

[Ryralane]

Monday: Character, either starter or unlockable, whichever
Tuesday: Item
Wednesday: Music (Yay music! =D)
Thursday: Stage
Friday: Anything else
As far as I've seen, they don't update on weekends.

This way, people won't be hoping for a character but instead get an item. ^^

 

[B01001101ownz]

the way I think he does it, is he takes like 2 months of updates, makes them, writes them all on a piece of paper (leaves some for special days), then puts them in a hat. That would explain why it took so long for Meta-Knight to be updated, and why there were so many character updates in those weeks.

I, however, would have a poll on monday, with a list of characters and have the world vote on the top 4 they want to see fight. Then during the week I would do random updates. The next monday would be the choice of a stage. Then that friday, I would show a movie of the worlds choices

 

[Xaron Fisk]

I would release all the characters in one day then post pictures of me making goofy faces for the rest of the updates

 

[WFL]

Show Black Knight is in brawl, but instead of "New Challenger Approaching" I would put "None Shall Pass!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[Gamingboy]

I'd have a schedule


Monday: How To Plays/Returning Characters+Items
Tuesdays: Subspace Emissary/Bosses
Wednesdays: Game Modes/Stages
Thursdays: Assist Trophy/Pokemon
Fridays: New Characters Or 2 non-character updates.

 

[Princess Diana]

Monday: assist trophy of a character everyone thought was going to be in.
Tuesday: Stage where a character everyone thought would be in is in the background.
Wednesday: Pokeball of a character everyone thought was going to be in.
Thursday: YOU MUST RESPAWN
Friday: Music

 

[Knyaguy]

yeah and then double updates are when he accidentally picks up 2

 

[Xaron Fisk]

lollollol. i laughed three times megadio

 

[garbage]

I like'em right now. There's always little something to look at every weekday, and if it's something "lame" one day, it won't be as lame the next.

 

[maxpower1227]

I'd make the updates completely random in nature, and not care what some spoiled whiners thought of them.

 

[Eagle]

I would also find a way to make it update at a time that's not really crappy for one half of the world... if that's even possible, that is.

Hey hey, Americans get Brawl on December 3rd.

Australians get updates at 4:30pm, but our release date will be like, early January?

If you want, lets trade.

 

[Weed]

Personally, I wouldn't do updates, let them know about the game when they play it.

 

[gnosis]

The only change I would have is make sure that the week progresses in quality to end with a bang. That's probably my only real disappointment - boring Friday updates.

 

[pineappleupsetshark]

No stand-alone music updates. That is all I would do differently.
