Why do we need another thread about this topic??

Unlockables have been shown...at the very least, Sonic and Snake.

I believe all four of the original secret characters will return.

On the uk, us and italian site it said "Until now" but on the other language sites it did not....if sakurai was going to reveal such an important thing about ness I believe he would:

1. Post a update dedicated to Ness

2. Post until now on all language sites

All the people who say Ness is deconfirmed and not in brawl may very well get a big surprise when brawl does come out ;)

thats what we said about ness...:(
"We"? I questioned Ness's return just because Sakurai planned to make the switch in Melee.

As for the other three, Capitan Falcon not being in Brawl is just a ridiculous thought to begin with. Luigi is just as ridiculous.

Jigglypuff is the only one that might go, and honestly, it wouldn't bother me. But the chances are not all that high.

Does anyone else feel that for whatever reason Sakurai is planning on keeping the original hidden characters from SSB64 ( Luigi, Ness, Captain Falcon, Jiggly), a secret until after the game is released.

I happen to believe that for whatever reason Sakurai will do this. I also strongly believe Sakurai would not take out an original SSB64 character.

???
This has been brought up a billion kazillion times. But I wouldnt expect you to know that. I dont know how you could really search for that.

*sigh*

On the one hand, Ness' position may be usurped by Lucas.
* His special moves are the exact same as Ness' were
* Sakurai was planning on replacing Ness in Melee anyways. Why not in Brawl?
* If Ness was in, why has the only inclution of his name been attached with "up until now" instead of "in the previous games"?

On the other hand, Ness may be fighting along side Lucas.
* Sakurai has Ness in his mind, at least. Why mention Ness at all if he wasn't going to be in?
(Counter point: He was merely informing of his absence, but in a sneaky way)
* Ness may come back with a different moveset entirely. Weren't those PK powers not his anyways?

Now then...now that that's over...

Capitan Falcon: The only rep of his game. His quick movements and fire-based techniques (*cough* FALCON PUNCH *cough*), along with the fact that he has a symbol already for Brawl, his apperance is assured. Chances: 99.9% (Sakurai may pull a fast one on us.)

Luigi: ....Do I even need to say it? Luigi has so much potential, it's WAAAAAY too easy to put him in without clone status. Chances: 100%

Jigglypuff: I dunno. Jigglypuff's got an original moveset, is fluffy, and a Pokemon. However, despite her rabid fans, they've sort of dwindled in favor of other Pokemon like Lucario or Blaziken, or for different characters in general like Geno or Capitan Olimar. As for Sakurai...I dunno his opinion. The David Hayder thing could be subject to debate, however, and could definitly be either a foreshadow of Jiggly's return, or merely an "off-the-top-of-my-head" thing. Chances: 75%

Of course, this is all my opinion formed through facts that I believe as true. If you think I am wrong, you may come to my house and say "I am very much against your opinion, my good sir. Good day to you." or something like that.

Jigglypuff won't go, there's no good reason to cut him off.

Jigglypuff is staying of course, one of Japan's favorite pokes.

Remember guys...Japan comes first!

It does, however, seem Masahiro is heading towards a lot of references from SB64..so its likely we'll be unlocking past secrets.

Thats how I see it of course, I'm probably wrong.

I'd rather not because you will be very very disappointed. Ness' chances are about the same as Meowth right now, where Sakurai clearly states that the character isn't going to be in Brawl.
Meowth! nooooooooo! why did they deconfirmed you?

The only pokemon getting the cut is Pichu and is probably being replaced by Lucario.
Noes! :(

I want him to replace Mewtwo and then they just totally drop Pichu. Pokemon Trainer can be Pichu's replacement, Pokemon does not need more than four reps.

Meowth! nooooooooo! why did they deconfirmed you?
See above, also, I think Meowth would be one of the worst Pokemon to choose for a playable character.... but that is just my opinion. I see a lot of better options, I think it's good enough he is back from N64 as a Pokeball.

Stop kidding yourself Mewtwo is not going anywhere and I'm sure you can't come up with a good reason as to why Pokemon only deserves four reps other than "It's too many" which for a series with more than 300 pokemon seems like it isn't.
