What's the probability that SSBB will come with something added rather than just the game? Even something simple as a poster, but wouldn't a special DVD included that shows the behind-the-scenes of the Nintendo office be so cool? Unfortunately, a lot of translating will have to be done =/

What do you lot think?

If we get a DVD, we'll have it subbed only. I hope we get something else like an OST.

I've thought about them releasing a "Making-Of" of the game in DVD. That would be really cool.
Seeing footage of them walking around the corridors and having meetings with people responsible for other game characters.
Like, Sakurai turning the camera on and walking with it around the building where "Evertyhing happens", a little tour of the place where they workeed for approximately year.
Or seeing one of those daily diaries, when the person is sitting on their bed, saying how tired they are and whatnot.
Seeing them have meetings on which characters would go in and out. Seeing Miyamoto coming in for suggestions and whatnot. And Iwata checking it out.
It would be so cool!!!!

Real trophies would be really cool too.
And an original soundtrack would be really nice also.

Nintendo Power will probably have some promotions related to Brawl, although I can't think of one sole iconic thing that can represent the series besides the Smash Bros. logo.

I'm really hoping that there is something that comes with it - I mean, Guitar Hero III came with a bag to carry the guitar controller in.

I doubt a making of DVD will happen. The ones they released for Halo sucked balls.

The Halo 2 special DVD was like, "OMG! HALO 2'S COMING OUT! OMG OMG OMG! WE'RE AMERICAN GAMERS WITH NO LIVES AND LOVE SHOOTING THINGS! OMG OMG OMG!" It sucked balls.

A real trophy? That would be ****-a-lot **** right there, that's for sure. A random trophy with every game? Not gonna happen, but that would be glorious. And I'm sure Japan will get the OST only just like Galaxy. :ohwell: Oh well! Thank God for the internet, right?

I wouldn't get my hopes up seeing as how NP is in the hands of Future US now.

Each game has a random sticker!

Because they are like trophies where you collect them but are much easier to give out and produce. They would be the ones from the game.

I just thought - Nintendo are missing out on a massive merchandising opportunity:

You know those sticker books that you get, where you buy a pack of stickers, and the aim is to try and fill up the book, well, why aren't Nintendo making one of those? I'd buy them, + it'd be a Smash fanboy/girl's dream! There aren't really any official Smash products to buy, so why not?

A Master Hand plushie that you can wear.

But no, really, here's an idea.

A specialized SSB skin for the controller of your choice (one that doesn't feel slimy and, in the case of the Wiimote, doesn't block the battery cover).

I'd like a handwritten letter from Sakurai apologizing for telling me that I must recover.
Yeah, I think writing out a couple hunderd thousand of those will make up for the delay.

A real life trophy of the Smash Ball.

That'd be epic.
Fixed.

Anyways, I'm not expecting anything as awesome as a trophy, if anything, but a "behind the scenes DVD" would be pretty cool. How does an epic game like Smash Bros. get made?

Also, slightly unrelated, I wonder if they'll make a "Smashing Live 2" album. Remember not long after Melee's release Nintendo released a live orchestra album of Smash songs? There seems to be more emphasis on music in Brawl, what with the load of musicians and My Music, so it wouldn't surprise me if they did another one. With all the songs we're getting in Brawl from some of the greatest games ever, "Smashing Live 2" would be pretty epic. :)

ADDED: I just realized I typed the word "epic" no less than three times in this post. :p

If you buy Brawl on release date then you get a free tee shirt. I'd wear it all the time!

Yeah, I'd really like an OST with my purchase...I thought the coin that came with SMG was a bit...irrelevant. It was shiny though, very shiny.

Oh, and a nice poster to hang and frame on the wall. :)

I don't know if these would come with the game, but miniature trophies would be awesome merchandise. I'd bring extra money on the day I pick up the game if they made those. If we get something with the game, though, it will probably be a coin with a Smash logo on it, kind of like Galaxy.
