Since the official Dojo blog has been updated onto the site, I thought it'd be a good idea to make another topic to discuss the new things Sakurai has shown us on the site.
The Halberd stage (Dubbed as Battleship Halberd) has finally been shown at the Smash Bros. Dojo!!
In the beginning of the stage, you start in the hangar, apparantly overseas. It looks like there aren't any edges to fall from in this part, but if you go to far to the right or left you'll probably die like in the Mushroom Kingdom and Flatzone arenas from Melee. Also, the stage seems to have improved visually if you look at the new screens, which is pretty nice.
After a couple of seconds most likely, you're taken from the hangar and put onto a floating platform and into the air! You can see the Halberd in the background, and it zooms around the air for a bit. This part of the stage looks a little boring, but not too bad I guess. It is kinda cool getting a look of the Halberd in the background.
This next part of the stage is going to be my favorite, you're now taken ONTO the Halberd and in the background is the Combo Cannon from Kirby Super Star! This is very exciting for me, as Kirby Super Star was my favorite Kirby game. The Combo Cannon shoots lazers and missles at you, and also has a claw that will try to grab you. The stage still could be playable in tournys, so long as the cannon has a charge animation or something.
Sakurai says that he Halberd plays a big role in the Subspace Emissary, I wonder what it is? This stage looks like one of, if not, THE most epic stage in Brawl so far, which is good. Smash Bros. needs some more epic stages in it. I like the happy go lucky Mario stages and stuff, but stages like this with (Hopefully) epic orchastrated music and and awesome backdrop with lots of cool stuff to do in the stage (Like evading the lazer) are jewels. Honestly, I will probably play this stage more than any other in the game, same with Bridge of Eldin. What can I say? I love dramatic looking stages.
