Why Brawl was delayed (good news)...

[ruel]

I got this from Nsider2 (http://nsider2.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=69415)

Sakurai recently said he will make and improve SSBB as optimum as possible.

He also said there will be many playable characters, more than you can imagine, and he said the team is still adding and programming characters. There will be more 3rd party characters too.

The combo control, he said, is relatively easy to control
But to those who already played Melee, he recommends the GC controller

The best news is that SE will be in the best quality that is fun to play alone. It takes more than 10 hours to complete the story mode.

EDIT: Here is the article that the guy on Nsider2 got it from (it's supposedly an article from Famitsu that is translated into Korean): http://ruliweb.empas.com/ruliboard/read.htm?table=game_nin02&num=13156&main=nin

 

[SolidSonic]

This really come from Famitsu? Anyone who speaka da Japanese?

If true then.... AWESOME!

 

[Symphony X]

What? Why is this important?

 

[M.K]

Well if THATS true, yay! I don't really mind the delay, if it were still Dec. 3, it would be the week of my Finals, which then would suffer because I would have been Brawling....all day....with new characters...and..

 

[The Hypnotist]

You guys shoulda listened to the podcast.

 

[M.K]

You guys shoulda listened to the podcast.

What are you implying?

If they wanted it known not to make a thread, they should've posted it on a thread. Not everyone listens to the podcast.

 

[The Hypnotist]

Show me your news said not to create a thread about this.

 

[Kio Iranez]

What are you implying?

This was already looked at in the podcast. =|

 

[M.K]

Oh, my bad. Does that mean it is true or false?

 

[ballerboy]

but not everyone checks the podcast, so i dont see anything wrong about this thread.

* im guessing 6 3rd party chars now. Isaac has a chance.

 

[ruel]

I just found out that he got his info at this site (http://ruliweb.empas.com/ruliboard/read.htm?table=game_nin02&num=13156&main=nin).

They translate the Famitsu Magazine into Korean every time it comes out. So I guess he can read Korean.

 

[Kio Iranez]

but not everyone checks the podcast

Up to this point, I don't see why not.

 

[ruel]

You guys shoulda listened to the podcast.

Can you tell me what the podcast says? My computer is too slow to listen to it...

 

[Bassoonist]

* im guessing 6 3rd party chars now. Isaac has a chance.

Isaac isn't 3rd party.

 

[iMichael]

Youko and SamuraiPanda did say not to go making threads, but everyone doesn't listen to their podcast. So chill out, I'm pretty sure this thread will live for a while.

 

[The Hypnotist]

And I think it was saying Brawl will get delayed again, I dunno, as long as we get the game.

 

[Super Smash Master]

They didn't even say this in the podcast. It was about another rumor. But if they really are adding a lot more character, I will be the happiest person in the world! :D

 

[NotaModerator]

i hope this is true, because it really made my day i wonder how many characters they are adding with the delay?

 

[Pieman0920]

Well a high amount of characters should be good, but if they are adding them in even now, then that's a bit bad. You know they do have to balance them, right? Actually, any characters being added in at this point are probably clones.

 

[ruel]

Assuming this is true, it would mean that to complete all difficulties of Subspace Emissary it would take like 50 hours!!!

 

[Super Smash Master]

So can we expect about 50 now? I am glad, because Characters are really all I care about. XD

I hope I am not disappointed. That's what I always worry about.

 

[RobinotX]

Ah well, If the SE will take 10 hours. Is that with char or is the SE just a story with every character and you can't choose?

Ah well the game is going to rock. Is it going to pwn Super Mario Galaxy?

6 Third Party's wow, Sonic, Knuckles, Snake, Ocelot, Zero and Megaman?

I think it will be:
Sega: Sonic
Konami: Snake
Capcom: Megaman o.o or I am wrong
Square Enix: Geno or Sora

I think 4 Third Party's. It's still a Nintendo fighting game. Or else you can put every char in the game -.-.
Don't get me wrong, Snake and Sonic are very cool. But I prefer Nintendo characters: Ridley, Olimar, Baby Mario & Baby Luigi, Kamek, Bowser Jr/Shadow Mario etc.

Ah I just wait what we will get n.n

 

[DJ Napps]

Can someone confirm this as an reliable source, please.

 

[~N9NE~]

More 3rd party characters = more chance of Bomberman = happy me.

Also 10 hour SE exceeds all my expectations. By miles.

 

[Tobi-]

SSE 10 hours..??

More 3rd party characters??

OMGGGG. This is VERY good news. I hope this is all true. You are making me want to play brawl right now all over again.

In responce to your SE comment...
It's already shown (in some videos) that you don't get to choose any character. It's one big story where you have to play through all the characters' parts. (you usually will get to pick between two different characters for each level).

 

[Boofer]

I need some verification. If this is true then ISAAC IS IN!

 

[Tobi-]

I need some verification. If this is true then ISAAC IS IN!

Isaac is automatically in because he said "there will be more 3rd party characters?".

wow, quite the assumption huh?

 

[ruel]

That's why I posted it here... I know there are some people here that live in Japan that might be able to get the magazine.

 

[Foe]

More 3rd party characters??

OMGGGG. This is VERY good news. I hope this is all true. You are making me want to play brawl right now all over again.

I think you mean Melee.

If it is coming from NSider I would be cautious. But I think this is somewhat reliable with the link. This is great if it's true. If not, Brawl still will be good.

 

[Storm Eagle]

Can this be true? Let's hope so! :bigthumbu

 

[MookieRah]

Unless SSE whores out in game cinematics I really don't see how it would take 10 hours to beat. I think one would be able to thrash it in 3 hours or less, tops. Assuming they are somewhat decent at smash.

 

[Boofer]

Isaac is automatically in because he said "there will be more 3rd party characters?".

wow, quite the assumption huh?

wtf? where did I say that? Isaac is in because "also said there will be many playable characters, more than you can imagine." The fact that he was on the poll coupled with this increases Isaac's chances.

 

[ruel]

Game developers seem to exagerate things, so I'm guessing that it will take a good smasher like 4 hours.

 

[Strongside]

I don't think so. What we have seen could be only a fraction of what is in the actual story. We have only seen the roles of some of the currently revealed characters, and they have barely touched on some, like Link and Yoshi, and not at all on others, like Ice Climbers, Ike, Pikachu, and Lucas. Not to mention all the unlockable characters if they are involved.


As for those saying Issac is third party... where have you been? Camelot never ended their contract with Nintendo, and are still Second Party. A simmilar situation happened with Silicon Knights while they were a second party, but had a game published by Konami.

Not to mention Golden Sun is a Nintendo IP.

If this is true then ISAAC IS IN!

"If this is true", im sure it is referring to this thread and what was said.

 

[joeysmash]

BOMBERMAN PLEASE!!!! also someone confirm this please

 

[Boofer]

"If this is true", im sure it is referring to this thread and what was said.

Yeah, but the main post wasn't only talking about 3rd party characters. That's just how everyone else interpreted the info.

 

[DiscoShark]

Honestly I don't see why this is considered "New or Exciting" news. We knew the reason that Sakurai delayed the game was that he personally didn't feel it was as best it can be. He wanted to optimize the features and tighten the gameplay. This only confirms that fact. The way that he stated that there would be many characters only means to me that there are many characters yet to be unveiled which is yet again not new news.

the fact that it was officially confirmed makes it new and exiting. We know for sure, 100% there will be more 3rd party characters and a long SSE story.

That is..If what was stated even true LOL
