Hey guys, today's the 187th update! That must mean something big is coming!!!

And Christmas Eve too, because it's the 7 month and 2 day anniversary of the Dojo launching its updates....

We never get anything significant on a specific date unless it corresponds with a convention or press conference of some sort. Christmas is not nearly as big in Japan as it is here so we'll most likely get nothing special. As for New Year's Day, it's still just a holiday, which we've learned from countless updates means absolutely nothing.

Yes, but Halloween...it's just not that HUGE of a deal. Christmas is the freaking birth of Jesus, Halloween is an excuse to dress up.

i agree with u, i love when they announce stages.
But, there not what everyone calls the biggest update.
Sakurai can do better then just a stage.
Well, he just doesn't create a stage based on a beloved game for nothing. And you should know that by now that there's at least several things happening at once at some stages.

Take Norfair for instance. Your characters are constantly on the run when they fight. Because the lava erupts from both sides, from the background (resulting in a fire wall) splashing down on the fighters and from underneath.

The recent stage; Orpheon also reflects this. When your characters fight. The stage also moves as well. Which you hear that warning and then suddenly the stage flips 180 degrees.

Well, lately. These stages have become safety hazards. When they suddenly shift and move. Like with Delfino Plaza. The platform continues to fly around the plaza, depositing fighters in various areas.

LOLOLOLOL I don't want to sound like a **** or anything, but is Ice Climbers really a beloved game? I mean, who honestly heard about them before Melee?

But I get what you're saying. Stage updates are pretty good compared to others you could get.

I played ice climber as a child, along with super mario 1, 2, 3.
The game is annoying though.

You've really gotta stop setting yourself, and the exciteable n00bs, up for disappointment, Koskinator.

I'm quite sure we'll get something on the Dojo for Christmas, yes. Will it be any more than Sakurai's festive wishes? I doubt it.
