Unbelievable! Also: How Should Samus Transform Into Zamus?

[anonymous_joe]

[spiritdragon]

I just wanted to say this to the people who say Snake is a Nintendo character because he was in two NES games: No, he's not. Get over it. Solid Snake is the property of Konami/Kojima. It is only by their permission that he has been allowed to be in SSBB. Saying Snake is a Nintendo char is like saying Mega Man, or the contra guys, or Sonic, etc. are Nintendo chars. All those characters have had games on Nintendo consoles so they must be Nintendo chars right? NO! Sonic belongs to Sega, Mega Man belongs to Capcom. I'm not saying they won't be in the next Smash Bros. I believe they have a very good chance of being in the next Smash Bros., but that doesn't mean they are Nintendo characters.

Wtf is your point? We know Snake isn't owned by Nintendo. He's still in the game, so what does anything you just said have to do with anything?

anonymous_joe
but doesnt nintendo own sega now?

no

 

[rounder_nk]

this could have been mentioned before but it would be nice seeing as the cube games are playable to have SSBM Wi-Fi enabled to give us something to chew on. This however would most likely require a lot of work.

 

[McFox]

That's not happening, at least not now. Either Sakurai or Miyamoto said that if Sakurai wasn't directing, they might have just ported Melee to the Wii and added Wi-Fi. But now that Sakurai's directing, they're making a whole new game.

 

[freeman123]

Uh... Everybody go Wikipedia.org & look up SSBB & look at the list of confirmed characters. I can't find it anywhere else yet, so I don't know if that info is real or not, but it was just added because I was on Wikipedia like 10 minutes ago & this wasn't there.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl

EDIT: Nevermind, it's definately fake because they just took it down. Someone added a bunch of characters(like Blaziken & Sonic) to the confirmed characters list.

 

[McFox]

Yeah, I get the feeling that that's going to be happening a lot, since Wikipedia can be edited by anybody.

I wouldn't trust anything from there unless it was corroborated somewhere more reliable.

 

[JustaPnoy]

"Under the direction of series creator Masahiro Sakurai, Super Smash Bros. Brawl will feature classic, GameCube-style combat -- not Wii-style motion-controlled combat. That means players who prefer to play the game with the traditional control setup can look forward to using the GameCube control-style they're already accustomed to."

Thank You!

 

[DireVulcan]

What I do notice....in light of the SSBB madness..

All these random players coming out of the woodwork all of a sudden posting...lol.

It may be just me, but I don't see any of these names in any tourney threads =b.

*i'm a meanie*

 

[anonymous_joe]

im 14 hard to get to tournaments when your parents don't want to drive

 

[McFox]

DireVulcan, there are a ton of people who only play Smash for fun on our forums, and don't bother with tournaments. Please don't assume that only people who play competitively are true Smashers. One of the great things of Smash is that it can be enjoyed by absolutely anybody, whether they want to win money or just kick their friends' butts.

 

[commonyoshi]

Although I am sad at there being third party characters in the game, now I can frag that stupid pichu. Assuming he is in the game. Pretty good decision to change some character's moves. The power up thing mario got looks kind of fishy. Maybe it's an item that can be turned off. looked way too powerful for me. AAAAAGGH! I love you nintendo!

 

[McFox]

Have you read any of this thread? Or watched the trailer? The SSB coin (item) Mario picked up enabled him to do the super move. It set him on fire, and he did it. Link's Omnislash also worked when he was on fire, as did Kirby's Chef Kawasaki pot.

 

[OcarinaLink]

is that the official name for it? Link's Omnislash? Or is that just a crossover from Cloud to Link?

Still...absolutely dying to use that move for the first time with Link...

 

[pay$]

this is the coolest thing i have ever SEEN!

 

[Falco&Victory]

I don't care if omnislash is the real name,i just wanna use it.My friend uses Fox and plays me when i use falco,and makes these miraculous 2 to 1 come backs,and i am seeking revenge.Once i beat him,i'll be the best official player in the county!WHOOOOO!!!!By the way,is it just me,or do Metaknight and Snake F***N ROCK!!!!

 

[Falco&Victory]

Hey,pay$,we have the same join date,avatar,and amount of posts.Justy thinkin aloud.

Anyone else but me worried about this :

E3 2006: Wii Wi-Fi Just Like DS
No standard interface and... friend codes? We've got the scoop.
by Matt Casamassina

May 11, 2006 - Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development's general manager, Takahashi Tezuka, recently chatted with IGN about Wii and its online functionality. The EAD leader confirmed once and for all that Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection on Wii would be an extension of the DS service and would not feature a standard interface like Xbox Live. And, uh, yes, get ready to enter those friend codes again.

IGN Wii: What is your plan for the Wi-Fi Connection and how might it compare to Xbox Live?

Takahashi Tezuka: Well, the Wii Wi-Fi Connection works the same as the Nintendo DS one. It's the three qualities that we emphasize. It's easy, safe and free.

IGN Wii: Will it have a central interface a la Live that all games will interact with, or will it be different on a game-by-game basis?

Tezuka: It'll be just like the DS so the interface will depend on the software.

IGN Wii: Will Wi-Fi Connection on Wii also use a Friends Code system?

Tezuka: Yes.

 

[anonymous_joe]

well theres this site and others to find other people's friend code's so i dont see it being to much of a problem besides actually having to manually insert the numbers

might want to add a link to the d/l of the Mp3 of the main theme..

That's jut what I'm calling it because it's so applicable.

 

[Kabyk-Greenmyst]

Granted that Snake may be a segway for other 3rd party characters, there is a special relationship between Hideo Kojima and Nintendo, so who knows?

SSBM Characters: Get rid of Pichu and G&W. I actually like G&W, I just don't think he's worthy of SSBB. Seriously, I know it's hard to remove stuff in a sequel, but it must be done. And pichu must be taken out. In fact, I present Nintendo with two options: Get GOOD (cool and strong) pokemon OR just go back to Pikachu and Jigglypuff. Because they are seriously misinformed if they wanted to pick popular pokemon for SSB and decided on M2.

I could see Y.Link being from WW or MM since they specialized Link (TP), why not Y.Link?

Dear god, I want to see me top boy Roy so bad! And his super move. Also, that castle does look like a castle or two from GC Fire Emblem. Or actually Bern from the first GBA Fire Emblem.

IF Waluigi is in it, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a clone of Wario.

Say "AY" if you want a non-swordsman FE unit [Canas/Lucius] for SSBB!!! AY!

 

[Devilkoopa]

....I'm very upset. I was disappointed with my GCN. I would've sold it if I hadn't already gotten so many games for it. The Wii? boring. uninteresting to me. I had no interest in buying it. I was through with nintendo....Then my friend tells me that there is a new Smash Bros. trailer. Metaknight? Great incentive, but I wasn't budging. Yes it looked tempting, but I was going to remain loyal to my choices. Then i heard that call. That call of that microphone. That call that made my heart skip a beat. Yes. Snake is in the game. And now? Well. I'm saying up for a PS3, and a Wii now.




**** you nintendo. **** you for being so good.

The game will use the Gamecube controller.

"...That means players who prefer to play the game with the traditional control setup can look forward to using the GameCube control-style they're already accustomed to." ~ IGN Staff

They said the "control-style," not control.


"The Wii hardware has sockets for the GameCube controller, too. So I'll just say now that you may not want to throw away your GCN controller yet." ~ Shigeru Miyamoto

Sounds like he's hinting that it will use the GCN controller, but that contridicts the fact that Nintendo has said that no first-party Wii games will use the GC controllers. I'd say odds are that it will use the controller skin.


I'm not saying that it absolutely will not use the GCN controller, I'm saying that it shouldn't be considered fact just yet.

 

[Khanczar]

Wait....

Does the Wi-Fi mean that you'll have to get an adapter to play online? Cuz if so im pissd... It seems like im the only person alive with a Mac..... DAM y cant it be something like Xbox live??

 

[Falco&Victory]

I don't think it will be entirely dependent on friend codes,like AC,but can use friend codes for grudge matches.If it was all friend codes,it would defeat the purpose.

 

[Falco&Victory]

Hey,everybody,paste new pictures,cause i'm making a collage.(That how you spell it?Maybe calage?)

 

[BACH]

Wait....

Does the Wi-Fi mean that you'll have to get an adapter to play online? Cuz if so im pissd... It seems like im the only person alive with a Mac..... DAM y cant it be something like Xbox live??

It'll be fine, it'll find your wireless network, and if you don't have one, Nintendo has a USB wi-fi thingy you can use.

 

[Khanczar]

It'll be fine, it'll find your wireless network, and if you don't have one, Nintendo has a USB wi-fi thingy you can use.

Would there be any chance of this thingy just being something to shove into your wii?

 

[commonyoshi]

Dang, stupid yahoo internet makes it impossible for me to use Nintendo WiFi for the DS. This could be a problem. On another side note, doesn't the new samus's character look kind of... rated teen?

 

[BentoBox]

What are you talking bout. :o

 

[freeman123]

commonyoshi
doesn't the new samus's character look kind of... rated teen?

The whole game is rated teen.

 

[Khanczar]

It should be illegal for bounty hunters to be that erm... HOTT

 

[VgtPrncfllSyns]

Why's that?

 

[cmart]

Wait....

Does the Wi-Fi mean that you'll have to get an adapter to play online? Cuz if so im pissd... It seems like im the only person alive with a Mac..... DAM y cant it be something like Xbox live??

If it comes down to it, you can configure your airport card (a pretty standard piece of equipment for any modern mac) to act as a router and pipe your connection wirelessly to your wii. There's several online tutorials on how to do this, and it's really not that hard. I got it the first time when I needed to get my DS online.

 

[IceDrake]

I cannot wait for this game

 

[Acea]

I cannot wait for this game

We all can not. It is going to be sweet!

 

[nategt4]

i wonder what snake's super move will be......

 

[nategt4]

i think that the super's should be a earned item , meaning that after weaking your foes to near deatha item pops out near you and you finish them off

 

[ScaryMunky]

Mario's fireballs seem to have a little more KICK! WII!!!

Mario's doing a Fsmash in that photo.
