Look!! My friend sent me a Wii message with a picture. In the message he said his friend said that someone had downloaded the Brawl demo. How and where, I don't know. Even if it wasn't downloaded, SOMEONE could have actually gotten their hands on one of the demo disks!!!

I opened the picture, and then took a picture of my TV screen, thanks Nintendo for not having alot of computer support.

CLICK CLICK CLICK!!!

It's a bit clearer if it wasn't a picture of the TV. = /

It has "Wii menu" and "Start" at the bottom of that picture, and "(something) Demo" I think under the Brawl title.

How "legit" my friend's friend's picture is, I don't know. But this looks real to me, unless someone has some pretty d*** amazing Photoshop skills.

I don't think someone "downloaded" it, unless they were going to release the Demo December 3rd or something and put it up momentarily on the Shop to test it or something. I say all of that's unlikely, and it's either a hoax or someone actually got one of the disks from some inside source.


Lol I'm gonna look really stupid if this is an old hoax picture. XD I don't really care though. =o

Edit:

Here's a second photo my friend had that he sent me afterwards, when he mentioned "blocks" I thought itwas the actual Wii memory, but this picture puzzles me.

Posted from page 4:

Ok, here's the second picture! It's... a little strange to me, to say the least:

Click for 2nd picture

It says, clockwise from the top:
Super Smash Bros. Brawl Demo 776 Blocks

Game Modes 40 Blocks Each

Help
Options

And I don't know what that is to the left.


Gonna update my first post with this information.

---------------------------------------------

This was common on the web MONTHS AGO. the story: a bunch of people got on boards, mainly nsider i think, and said "when I got home from school, my wii was glowing! i got a message from nintendo saying that i was randomly selected to play the brawl beta! it cost 1000 wii points if i wanted to acccept it, something or other".

FAKE AND EPICLY OLD. In fact, this guy probably just took pictures of the original 'screens', sent them to his or a buddy's wii, took a picture of the picture, and posted it on here.

FAKE. AND EVEN OLDER THAN IT IS FAKE.
HOWEVER

My friend Nick, the person who sent me the pictures, posted the Wii Messages that he recieved from that other guy!

CLICK HERE TO READ THEM ON PAGE 6.



So, who knows...... I'm really interested again. Could this really be real? Hmm..... Only time will tell, maybe?

Probably brawling
uhh, hoax or amazing photoshop or nintendo's conspiracy, of walking into a restaurant on december 8, and watching two kids debate about smashbros, comes up and says "Hey, see for yourself" and watches them fight to the death over the disk. that's the future

This look shopped. I can tell by some of the pixels, and from having seen a good number of shops in my time.

In all seriousness, it's fake.

Even if somebody had gotten their hands on a demo, why get excited? We're not going to be able to play it anyway...

Just wait the remaining 75 days we've got left to play the game...

It doesn't confirm downloadable demo. The only thing it would confirm (if it was, in fact, real) is that magazines and press have received a demo and someone leaked it. I will now scour the internet to see if this is indeed the case.

I trust him, usually when someone says a freinds freinds its a lie. Undirecting the person from any actions of the chain not knowing the source. not accusing you, but hang the witch. He turned me into a newt once. I got better!

ANYBODY NOTICE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TV SCREEN IT SAYS 'BETA DEMO' or whatever?

Guys, no offense, but how are you so dumb. This is the same Brawl FAKE demo hoax screen that was all over the Nsider boards like 4 months ago.

OLD AND FAKE.

You failed with your mom last night.

Thanks for scouring! ^_^


Well, at least I think it's interesting; afterall, I've never seen this picture before. o.o I wish it was better quality and not my crappy TV pixel stuff. :(

Gee, that's some nice Photoshop!
In all seriousness, this couldn't possibly be real. Even if someone were given the demo, they'd be sworn to secrecy, and I doubt they'd be allowed to post this pic. Sorry to burst everyone's bubble.

I'm back. No demo has been leaked. If your friend has it, he has friends in high places.

Eh, I can't tell, for real. If it IS real, milk some more information out of your friend. If it is fake, oh well. If it's photoshopped, oh well.

So are we going with godly photoshop, Hoax, or Real?
Well, I'm beginning to think it's not real either; I've never heard the name my friend gave before, so that guy is probably just lying. :(

And wouldn't godly photoshop = hoax? lol. I pick both of those I guess. Well, more of a godly photoshop, ever since that first thing on Gametrailers with that video of the select screen.

And I frequented the NSider boards (I remember you Mr. Claw, I was DDD'SSCEPTILE) and I never saw this picture before.....


edit: Ok, I'll ask my friend about it when he comes by, and maybe I'll be able to talk to that person he referred to himself. But like I said, I've never heard his name before. >.>'
I'll see what I can find! :)

two things dont add up.

1. Why did he make sure everything else was dim if he was sending it to freind. No reason.
2. Why did he take it from a side angle. Did he not want to give us the idea it was on a computer because if it was straight foward we would see the moniter.

I deduce it is a Photoshop taken from a Computer Moniter

This is a rehashed old picture of someone claiming of having the demo. It was posted many months ago. Okay, for one, why would Nintendo release a demo of a highly anticipated game to a random person exclusively. Two, they would announce a demo BEFORE it came out. Any one who believes this is an imbosile.

I hope that's sarcasm. How could you not know that's Monty Python?

@Spartan64:

Yay! Me and my friend did the Undertaker sketch for Drama once.
Well its been a while, diddnt realize when Tristen said that it was Monty Python. I know its a sin against humanity but i do agree with one thing.

Sir Bedevere: What makes you think she's a witch?
Peasant 3: Well, she turned me into a newt!
Sir Bedevere: A newt?
Peasant 3: [meekly after a long pause] ... I got better.
Crowd: [shouts] Burn her anyway!

You are correct

It's "imbocile" I think.

Anyway, Nintendo wouldn't release a demo of a highly anticipated game to someone exclusive. That someone would "steal" it from them somehow.


I've noticed a few people claiming this is an old rumor/photoshop, so I've lost a little hope, however, I've got that guy's AIM thing so I'm gonna talk to him about it and see what BS he tells me. XD

We know for sure that a demo has been released to magazines and websites, so it's possible someone got a hold of it that way.

However, the demo has NOT been leaked on the internet. I am 100% about this.

It's most likely fake, but at e for all, all of the power went out and they had to reboot brawl..brawl was one of the channels and they clicked on it and it looked exactly like that untill they loaded it to the smashbros blue background press start screen...like somebody said it's probably a computer monitor though...

75 days... that sounds so much sorter then three months.
See, it's the opposite for me...numbers always make it seem like much longer than saying something like 'months' or 'weeks'.

About the screenshot...meh. Even if there was a demo, I'm sure it wouldn't be official or anything so why get your hopes up? Geez, just wait for the game. Pass the time by playing Melee or 64 or something.
