...forgotten?
I think Petey's one of those characters most people are desperately trying to forget.
XD

Well I liked fighting him in SMS, I was one of the few people that actually enjoyed that game. -_- I just don't see him as a playable character, an AT maybe. However seeing a more important character, Toad, still being Peach's shield makes me wonder if Sakurai's going to add ANY Mario characters? I'd say Bowser Jr. would be in before Petey, though.

Isn't Petey an unlockable character in Mario Strikers Charged?
I doubt the majority of people playing Strikers will ever play Petey offline. I've unlocked him and not only is it hard, it's frustrating and unforgiving. The reward really doesn't justify the effort, considering he's just another power character (of which there is lots) and his special sucks when compared to DK's.

But he's there, and you can play as him online without unlocking.

Ahh... I see. Thanks for the info. I thought he was in Strikers, but I wasn't sure.

Oh, and err...
Petey for Brawl!!

Hmmm... well it seems the plant has a chance at least a slim chance, well, i'm not going to say he's not in, if he's in well, if not then i don't care either, so whatever.

you're kidding me, I pwned the Striker's cup no problem whatsoever. Maybe I'm just awesome but maybe...

Yeah, and Petey is fun to play as. His special means instant megastrike. His headbutt flies halfway across the screen, and when you defeat someone, he does the limbo while the best music in the game plays. It's total humiliation for the loser.

Say what you want about me people but really..I just don't like Petey. I just don't really want him in Brawl..Petey just seems kind of..unimportant. Like a generic villain. Petey not for Brawl.

Personally I don't care for Petey and I think he has as much personality as my elbow.

However, looking at him in the video I have to admit he somehow works and looks impressive and I'm glad he's part of the game. As for the PC debate...no one knows you cant say he's in / he's out. Yes he's bigger then my block of flats but who knows...maybe after you beat the bosses in the Subspace Emissary you may be able to play as them...

PS. How frign' huge is DK's hand. It's about as big as Link :laugh:

Somehow I think Link paid a certian Ape an undisclosed amount of bananas just so he can see up Zelda's dress.

Well too bad. He's in Brawl whether you like it or not. We don't know if he's playable or not, but Sakurai has him in the game and you can't do nothing about it. So just get over it.

I for one can't wait to fight this Boss, and take him Down lol.

I bet you'd probably feel better when you fight Petey and whoop his *** lol.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OH TYEAG I FEEL GOOD, dadadadadada da, I KNEW THAT I WOULD YEAH!

HAHAAHAHAHA

man, I didn't even think he'd make it as a trophie, now you at least get the chance to fight him. SWEET

ALSO the size of petey is from kirbys point of view.
yeah, and it’s a cut scene, it’s more for dramatic effect than actual gameplay

Still, there's no update on Petey even though he was shown. DK got even less screentime in the Nintendo E3 mini trailer, and yet got an update right away. Petey is not playable people. :)

Was Boswer not enlarged at the final boss of a certain mode in melee???

You mean he can shrink characters?!?



Let's think about this too... How did Sakurai reveal peach?

Right behind you with a knife.
Bowser wasn't THAT big, but yes, Petey's size could in theory just be bloated for the story. (It's not a matter of perspective though, he's holding those two princesses in the air, and those two are kinda tall.)

Lol. Sorry, I just thought of the movie and laughed my *** off. I know I've never posted here . . .but I do find this topic amusing. I'll all for the Audrey II type.

Anyway, congrats on your choice getting in Smash--at least, as an enemy. Who knows? Maybe more? I'm sure that we could hack him out as playable, if push comes to shove. (GameShark FTW?)

Also, they enjoy making the trailers more dramatic. I want Petey playable in Brawl, but I'm just glad he's making an awesome-looking boss. But seriously, He was in my top three list for Brawlers.

Yes! Petey's in the game!
It doesn't matter if he's playable! He's programmed in! Sooner or later a hack will come along, and we'll get to play as him!

So Kirby's point of view makes his head look bigger then Zelda, Peach, and the cages holding them.

Not against me, you won't. I don't play people who use hacks.

The best part about him being a boss is he's not a playable character, but you still get to beat the crap out of him.

You don't know that for sure. So, um, shut up. It seems like some people are just in denial.

Indeed, but the E3 mini trailer and Donkey Kong both got updated the same day. They could've easly done that with Petey too, seeing as he got far more screentime than DK in the E3 mini trailer.

To those who say he can't be playable because he's a boss, look at two things:

1) Bowser was the final boss in Melee's adventure mode and he was beef way up back then

2) If bosses can't be playable then say goodbye to a playable Ridley because we heard his boss music already

1.) Yet Giga Bowser wasn't playable (without AR)

2.) You can't make any assumptions just because we've heard Boss music for Ridley. We also can't assume anything about Petey yet.

We're just hoping that he never steps foot onto the character select screen.

Wow!

At first I thought he's just a boss!

But now, he could be playable people! They'll just make him HUGE in Adventure mode, and resise him like they do in every game he's playable in!

It's so going to own to play as Petey if you can!

dudes! let me tell ya, I really didn't care much for Petey; but after seeing him in the video (which was toitaly unexpected) I think he looks awesome and hope he's playable! I mean, there giving him a move-set and model and what-not, so it would just be a waste to not make him playable, am I right? every character with a full move-set and animations should be playable. end of story. thats just how smash should be!
