Despite my belief that Snake is an unlockable character and that Sakurai would only show starters on the Dojo, I wouldn't be that surprised if Sakurai updated with Snake on the dojo tomorrow, now. Hmmmmm...

The bat in snake's hand has the mushroom symbol on it... What if this is some kind of "special" bat (like the golden hammer) where it is the same basic item, but it looks slightly different, is more rare, and is more powerful? Personally, I'm not a fan of things like that (Luigi's random explode off the screen in a blaze of random death B move for example), but it makes sense.... Or, yeah, it's just an updated version of the homerun bat.

Very interesting. I really wasn't expecting any new SSBB screens to surface from TGS this year. Does anyone know when this conference ends? I hope we get some news from other third party developers.

I like how Nintendo is against voice chatting, but will allow Snake's buttcheeks in a skin tight suit. Oh Nintendo, you work in mysterious ways.

Honestly, what's with that? I mean, if you were Snake, what kind of pants would you wear? I know it's a game but a LITTLE realism would be appreciated! Haha

I live... again...

But ay, it's extremely interesting to be seeing the company not in charge of Smash Brothers releasing screenshots of it...

And yay for the glorious return of Mr.Saturn!

Heh, looks like many want to know how that Cypher craft thingy works, including me. Too bad it looks like no one wants to answer. Guess not many play MGS?

Does this mean that he is showing secret characters on the Dojo now or did he only add Snake because of TGS?

Actually many of us do. Just not the people in this topic. Well, I know how this works. I hope the cipher is invincible during this move or destroying it will be the way to ruin Solid Snake's recovery.

You know, I don't think Snake is an unlockable character after all. I mean, why would he spend all this time hyping him up (through trailers and such) if he wouldn't even be able to played with from the start? If he really was an unlockable character though, I don't think he would've been announced with all the other newcomers who we presume aren't unlockable. This is probably a dumb theory. Same thing went with Meta Knight, though. Lots of people thought he was unlockable because he wasn't shown a lot.

I kinda hope Snake is unlockable and they work in into The Subspace Emissary. Imagine the storyline there!
