I LOVE it. They totally nailed Bowser this time around. He looks so real, and yet so "plush" and Mario-like. Just plainly perfect.

Bowser is pretty much a baller, no matter how you cut it.

I've been trying to play with Bowser for the last few months, and, while he's not as bad as people say he is (I beat my brother's Falco, and he is pretty good), he needs an upgrade. Hopefully he'll have more in his arsenal in Brawl than Fair, the Klaw, and the Fortress.

They did didn't they? The graphics are looking great so far, they'll only get better at release. Anyway, time for me to go to bed, listen to some Brad Paisley and Metallica, and wait for the next update 24 hours from now.

MAYBE by "new-flavor" he means new look?

Since we have seen other characters and they all have new looks...Except for kirby xD

I would like to point out things I find interesting:
A. Bowers Looks HUGE this time.
B. The flag behind Bowers and fox in one picture, is that from any games we know of?
C. The "Veteran fighters" Page is full...But notice how the "new comers" isn't?
Updates for Zamus and Meta anyone?

also using these pics and the trailer it seems like the chars have more charecteristics now

you see the characters keep an eye on characters and pika is obviously in a scared/WTF attitude

Bowser, awesome. He looks BADASS this time around and I like the fact they sound like they saw how bad he was in Melee...

Also...



BADASS!

I must concur, Bowser does look more like he's supposed to. I wonder how long I must wait for Peach... (Sigh)

Peach will be in for sure.And she'll be lookin might nice when we see her.;)

And I think it's safe too assume now that we will get a character update everyweek whether it be confirmation or their attacks.

Well,Got Blood? signing out for Dawn Partol.Night all!

Peach must be confirmed if bowser is in. (oh please, oh please, oh please, let peach in.)
I agree.. Peach HAS to be back.
I thought I read somewhere that Sakurai originally wanted Peach and Bowser in Smash Brothers for the N64.. but they didn't have time to add them.

B. I don't recognize it, but didn't ppl say a while it's a Fire Emblem stage?
C. They could easily expand it, think of when there was only 4 characters. They have to, considering theres gonna be more than 8 veterans.

And by new flavor, it definitely means play style. why would players who thought it was like melee be thrown off? even if the attacks are near identical, just changing the speed, jumping, and delay can completely change a character, and screenshots dont show those traits.

Nice. Really nice. I could hace seen the fire effects being slightly different but from what I can see Bowser looks better and more appropriate. Now to make him a better char...

Who said Bowser is the main villain?
You forget who rules outer space in the Mario universe.. :p
is there a villain that rules the outer space? i forget.... Grodus of the XNauts? They wouldn't use him... Culex a la Mario RPG? May of been another dimension but it looked like Space lol, but its not him.

I am hoping that the flavor that he is discussing for Bowser is the delicious taste of "not sucking." I hope it tastes like shiek seasoned with space animals, more likely it just tastes like some fried Donkey Kong.
