Ammo really isn't that rare. As long as you have good aim you're fine.

Awesome SSBB update. That is going to be pretty crazy...

Also, DQS commercial is out in Japan, and it will be released next week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxg64_kB ... main%3Dnin

Gameplay looks good, "sword" icon during your attack phase and a "shield" icon for monster rounds to migitate damage. Boo on you people who said it would be no good, it's looking even better.

Edit: I like this one more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvvzhLBz ... ed&search=

Latest SSBB update revealed Bowser. Please hurry and come out

[Po]

Can't wait for the new E3 trailer next week :D

I'd say Sonic is a given as an additional character to be revealed there. Any other predictions? I was strongly thinking that another pilot from F-Zero would have been, but one of those was shown as an Assist Trophy.

What do you guys think?

[Kenai]

The assist item actually made it harder to figure out, since a lot of characters will show up as those that had a chance as playable before. I'd say Yoshi, Peach, Luigi, Ness, DK, and a few other old-schoolers from previous games are all almost a given. As for new ones, I'd expect to see Lynn or Ike as a new FE character replacing Marth (if Marth isn't there, I saw a FE stage in the latest Bowser screens), a new Pokemon character like Lucario or Deoxys, Sonic, WW Link, and maybe even someone like Mega Man or Tetra or one of the Belmonts. Even if they don't have them as playable, I'd still like to see a lot of my old favs like Poo and Geno and even Eggplant Wizard as assists, and now there's a good chance of that happening...

I have my reservations about Sonic. I remember reading an interview a while back that stated that Nintendo was in talks with Sega to get Sonic into Brawl, but the person talking about it hinted that it wasn't going to happen. Possibly because Sega decided to put Sonic in that Olympics game with Mario instead. It'd be cool if he was in the game, though. The interview also mentioned that there would only be about 2-3 third party characters, including Snake.

Yoshi is pretty much confirmed to be in the game. I mean, the Brawl blog has revealed the Yoshi's Story ending music as being in the game, and one of the stages is Yoshi's Island. I think its safe to assume Yoshi is in there.

They might be doing away with all the character clones this time, but a cool character I just thought of: Paper Mario.

[Po]

OO I know one I forgot

Motherfucking Waluigi! He is a bad ass, and it would be awesome if he made it in.

I don't think there is any doubt Marth/Roy will be in the game again, no sense adding another character since for the first year Melee was out, every other person was like, where the fuck are these characters from?

Good idea on Mega Man too, another definite possibility.

[Oxyminus]

they really need to make a kid icarus game

and yeah, gimme SSBB already!!!

[Exoduso]

I'm really tempted to grab the Wii again when SSBB comes out..

what comes out first, Metroid of Super smash?

[Oxyminus]

metroid, read yesterday its getting backed up to 8/27, Smash Brothers is still TBA

[Kenai]

Some NiGHTS scans (pretty nice-looking too): http://img12.imagevenue.com/view.php?im ... _702lo.jpg

But seriously, SSBB topped itself AGAIN. EVERY DAY it seems they do this to me... (from the offical site):


"Bowser: Final Smash

<Giga Bowser Transformation>

What?! You can control Giga Bowser from Super Smash Bros. Melee?!

It’s Bowser’s Final Smash!!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/chara...er_070704a.jpg

Bowser grabs a Smash Ball! TRANSFORM

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/chara...er_070704b.jpg

Whoaaa! Talk about a change!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/chara...er_070704c.jpg

He’s huge! And tough!

What, you think just because he’s huge, you can needle him with lots of little attacks and keep him off balance? Heh heh... Yeah, you keep thinking that.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/chara...er_070704d.jpg

He must be invincible!

You can only be Giga Bowser for a short time, though, so you’d better take your enemies out while you can. Bear in mind, too, that while escaping from Giga Bowser, fighters might decide it’s a good strategy to pick off the stragglers in his wake..."

I want it...damnit Nintendo...do want....

Oh fucking shit that's fucking awesome ;_; WHY MUST THIS GAME GET DELAYED SO MUCH WHEN IS IT GOING TO COME OUT ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

ih8u nintendo ._.

Because the success of the wii depend largely on Brawl success. They can't afford making something inferior to Melee if they want to keep the fan. >_> Well, maybe not that much, but it's still the "Halo 3" and "MGS4" of the Wii

[Vade]

*grabs a smash ball as bowser*

*transforms into GB too close at the edge of the stage*

*FALLS OFF*

D:



In all seriousness, if they keep Gannondorf in the game...I want a Ganon transformation.
