When do you think Brawl will REALLY come out?

The general concensus is that it isnt coming out on the random Sunday of Februrary 10th. I am just really hoping its not another epic delay, but I am honestly expecting Holliday 08 to be the next announced release 'date', then the thing being announced for: December 3, 2008.

Honestly, think about it. This could have been the plan all along. Next Holliday's Wii line up certainly isn't as hardcore as this year's. So why, when all three systems will begin to die down in sales, not boost the Christmas output by releasing such an incredible, widley wanted, anticipated game? And December 3 2008 is a TUESDAY! Which is when most games are always released!

You heard it here first: Super Smash Brothers Brawl - Coming December 3, 2008.

If you don't think it will be released then, when do you? I really dont want it delayed again, I just cant see Nintendo really releasing the thing in Feb.

If they intended to release it 12/3/08 all along, why did they pretend it was coming out in 2007 or February 08?

December 4th 3024.

No.

February 10th. Like they said.

It's release date isn't important. The game is basically finished, they are just tweaking it.
QFT.

I don't think it will b any other day but the amazing Feb 10.

And December 3 2008 is a TUESDAY! Which is when most games are always released!

Nintendo had the first delay planned all along, it was buisness strategy.
If they delayed it again it would be 2 months later. Actually if there gonna work on, and balence
the game even more I might be able to wait untill april.

I don't think there's too much left to work on in the game. So most likely: Get Ready to Brawl, Feb. 10, 2008.

By the way, any minute now, NintendoWarrior will be in this thread with yet another: "Sakurai bit off more than he can chew, there's no excuse, Dec. 2008, I want everyone to be as pessimistic as me" post.

I can say this without hesitation...Get ready to Brawl Feb. 10, 2008....Feb is a good month to release it in also..this gives Super Mario Galaxy some (sunshine) and followed by Brawl and they said Mario kart Wii early 08...Nintendo knows what they are doing....

In the states, February 10th
Europe, about April-May

But the release date is unimportant. Think of it, would you play a glitchy game now and for the rest of your days? Or would you wait for a delay and play from there and live happily?

Game Play ability > Release date

I remember Pokémon Diamond/Pearl was released on a Sunday, not a Tuesday. When I asked why, I was told by the guy at GameStop "because with big games like this, people skip work or school to stay home and play them."

February Tenth sounds more logical to me than Monday December Third.

Nintendo knew the ramifications of delaying this game, considering it's a MAJOR flagship title, and to have it out for the holidays would mean they'd need rakes to gather all that money. February 10th wasn't random, it's probably the "play it safe" date. Better than saying, "Delayed until January", THEN having it delayed until Feb.

It'll be out the 10th.

Anyone who is still trusting Nintendo with dates set in stone obviously wasn't on board when it was originally meant to be released with the Wii. For those of you who don't know, this is the 3rd push back.

Want my advice? Forget about Brawl and go play something else. By the time it comes out, your kids will love it.

Somewhere, most likely existent
They'd BETTER release it on freakin' February 10th. Two delays is two too many. And a third would be completely and totally EVIL.

Yes, two. Brawl was going to be a launch title. :p Then it got info, a trailer, consensus, and Snake. Then it got Dec. 3rd.

This is a good thread. It reminds us that nothing is set in stone (ex: Dec. 3, 2007). Spring of 08 is the date I'm betting on.

Maybe, but none of the release dates we've gotten so far have been completely set in stone anyway, since they're still working on the game at the moment. I doubt that there's much left to fix before Feb. 10th anyway.

Valid point, but people also thought the same thing when Dec 3rd was given as a date. Look at all the stuff their adding anyway. I think it has a good chance at being pushed back.

Yeah, I suppose we'll just wait it out. By the way, I highly doubt the recent stuff we've been getting in updates is just being added. I think they're making everything work as well as possible for the new release date.
