As I stated earlier, I looked up the name Geno and how to pronounce it...

It IS a real italien name after all


It's pronounced Jean-oh

In your mind!
I always pronounced it that way, afterall why not it is spell g-e-n-o, instead of gen-o or g-eno it is jean-oh, which to me makes a lot of sense, mainly since I have not been prouncouncing it wrong...

how is that different from G-no? or jee-no? they're just 3 different spellings for the same pronunciation.

and anyway, i actually know someone named Geno, and it's jee-no. (or jean-oh, or however you want to spell it...)

It's only a slight difference in pronunciation...about emphasis or something like that

Well either way it is Jee-noh, or Jean-noh, so we do not have to make a big deal of this do we? afterall once he is in we can hear how it is really pronounced...I still think if we can, appeal to nintendo to find out the pronounciation of his name...

Always has been Jee-No around here. Though I know many people online who say Jen No or Gee-No.

Anyways, with Samus' missiles losing a lot of their KO potential and the charge shot being significantly weaker, I wonder if Geno will become the new ranged specialist? Of course this isn't a post saying "OMG SAMUS' PROJECTILES ARE WEAKER, GENO CONFIRMED!", just an idea. It'll be especially be emphasised with having both the Geno Whirl and the Geno Beam, as well has having perhaps the Geno Blast as a way of clearing close opponents.

does anyone have the vote for Geno this round?
Yes, for now he is safe...

and the person I wanted to be eliminated was while I was gone!!!

I think it's going to be Olimer if a character is announced tonight, but if not...and it IS a character, GENO FOR BRAWL 2NIGHT Y'ALL!!!

#61-70: Its actually funny, the email Sakurai responds to actually was asking for Toad, but randomly interchanged Toad’s Japanese name with Pinochio’s Japanese name (he reversed the order of one symbol by accident several times). So Sakurai just made fun of him a little bit in this response.


hmm and in 1 interview Sakurai thinks of Geno and refers to him reminding himself of pinochio, coincidence? =p

Is there a link to these, because back in the day I tried to defend Geno with that and the person countered asking for a link...

I couldn't find the links to any of this though

ironically a friend of mine has vids of Geno in mugen, (He is tranton1234 of gamefaqs latest member for our alliance) the sprite is ok but you have to admit that he is working hard on this!

About the elimination game,what's gonna happen when it comes down to Geno and another character? isn't it dependent on speed as it gets closer to the end? Just a thought

And im still saving my vote, is there any particular time i should use it?

Two hours and no replies? That's madness.

Oh, and the Phoenix Wright/Geno thing? It's done. At least the first one. Beware the adorable PW stick characters!

No character..at least this update is kind of decent. It doesn't effect me much because I'm recording Brawl matches.

However, if I was Miyamoto, I'd be hitting Sakurai with a present box, I mean what kind of celebration is a decent surpise?

I just wanna add here that...even though the place you run around in in Mario Galaxy isn't the Star Road...it sure feels like it. Because the longer you play, the more little star guys float around. It's so cute <3
