Well, it sounds as though my internet will be down for quite some time at worst. This just means that I'm stuck with the public library internet (which I am utilizing at this moment) and the free wi-fi at the local coffeehouse (which I intended to visit tonight anyhow). At least I didn't miss out on Peach's update, though! Hahah kind of a convenient disappointment.
The only thing that I cared about in today's update is the fact that we saw ZSS's lasergun being used.
ZSS Special Moves for Monday, am I right?
Actually, that's old news, really. Remember the update "Fox: Special Moves"? Fox's Reflector was demonstrated reflecting ZSS's laser gun all the way back then. It is more explicitly noted this time around, though, so it's always a possibility for next week.
I think we got no character update this week because we got Ike last week,so maybe we're not getting a veteran until next week. At this point Peach,Captain Falcon,and Ness are all looking likely.
Lest we forget that Sakurai far prefers Lucas to Ness. He has stated himself that, had MOTHER 3 been released prior to the launch of either SSB or SSBM, Lucas would have replaced Ness. It's nice to finally see
something related to the EB series, though. Interesting note: Peach has actually been seen in a video. Neither head nor tail has been seen of CF or Ness, on the other hand, save one item each and their respective series' icons.
All three are logical choices, and we might get more than one next week--if we're lucky. Seeing something EB-related opens up the possibility of hearing the MOTHER 3 music that Sakurai said would be in Brawl.
Well, I think it's pretty safe to say that this week's updates sucked. Two items, Music, Special moves and a final smash. As long as I get one character profile a week I am happy. But I didn't get that. >:O So I am pissed. Oh well, this hints that we will get either Ness or Lucas next week.
It's possible for next week, but this week shows that we can never quite tell what Sakurai is planning. Peach was confirmed in the video last week, which seemingly confirmed that her character update would come this week; unfortunately for Peach fans--myself included--this hope did not come to fruition.
(Really, though, it wasn't such a bum week. Sure, I didn't care much for either of the items, but I LOVED both the music and FS. Ike's Special Moves were okay, but Pit >>> Ike in my book.
)
Get over it; they can't all be phenomenal weeks. Just take your satiety in that you got some cool screens. (I personally thought the Kirby one today was hilarious.)
+10 points for the word "satiety".
