You're just betting on who you think will win. What does it matter if you see the name or not

Because then people could develop "reps" and you'd kinda know who is the best bet. Otherwise they're all just blank random faces and you're just betting on "Link" or "Mario" hoping that the player is good.

Yeah. My point was that I think it would be better if it wasn't blind betting.

Ice Climbers: Final Smash
Iceberg The Ice Climbers’ Final Smash is Iceberg! Calling it Iceberg is a bit problematic. I mean, it’s not like... ...Ahh! I guess Iceberg IS rather appropriate! When you get the Smash Ball and do your move... ...the duo do a high-five, and... CRRRRRSSSSSSHHHHH! It even happens in the big city, just like this... Ice doesn’t just make the available ledges smaller and more slippery, but it also damages your opponents! But, of course, the Ice Climbers can handle it no problem. They look as cool and refreshed as ever. Sometimes, you can even freeze opponents. Now that’s just cold! |

If you brawl for a long time, there is one thing you will definitely start to think: "What can I do that will help me be able to win?"
For that, I’ve implemented a training mode to help you get to know the characters. At first glance, nothing about this screen seems unusual. Bothersome displays are hidden at first. The settings screen appears when you pause the game.Oh! There it is! You can produce lots of items. You can put in three computer opponents, and jack their damage meters way up. And you can see how much damage different combos do. You can even put it in slow motion. You need to know the moves, whether you’re trying to hit with them or avoid them—this is especially true of Final Smashes.(But...you can’t tell that from a screen shot.) This mode is particularly helpful with that. |

My brother killed the PC with some virus or other so I couldn't post the updates. The PC still isn't working right so I don't know when I'll be posting them again. It doesn't seem like I missed much anyway.
I was surprised about the Sin & Punishment guy being in at all even if it is an AT. |

Events
It’s the return of Events! This is a single-player mode in which you battle through predetermined situations.
This is the Events selection screen. Oh! The pictures make it easy to understand. And it has different difficulty settings! For these, a harder setting is probably more exciting, but you can go ahead and set it however you like. For example, you’ll find these kinds of situations: Two Trouble Kings Character: Mario Bowser and King Dedede battle as a team! And Mario stands alone against them. Pink Ball Repulsion Character: Meta Knight Kirby must not be allowed on the Battleship Halberd! Blast Kirby off before the platform lands on the Halberd! Cleaning House in Skyworld Character: Pit Destroy all the terrain in Skyworld! Wario both gets in the way and helps out? Sleeping in the Eggs Character: Yoshi Using Yoshi’s Egg Lay standard special move, put both enemies inside eggs simultaneously! Dark Link Duel Character: Link It’s a fated battle with your own shadow. This is a stamina-based match. High scores are recorded for each challenge at each difficulty level. You don’t just clear these challenges – competing for time will magnify the fun. Enjoy Smash’s chance meetings between a variety of characters! |

I think the 2nd Event is something like "avoid the Land Master". |

Probably at first until you do a few and unlock more, like in Melee.
I just got the new issue of Official Nintendo Magazine and had a quick flick through. In their preview of Brawl, they said it'll be out in the UK in Spring 2008. I think they could be right considering they said it was going to be on-line a month before the Dojo updates confirmed it. |

Last I heard it was supposed to be out Feb. '08 in the U.S., But IGN just has “TBA 2008” under the Europe release date, so take that for what you will.

Melee Stages
First, take a look...
Could this be... ...the Temple?! This is the Temple stage from the last instalment, Super Smash Bros. Melee. I think that based on my updates so far, you probably understand that we’ve created plenty of stages. But we wanted to do more, so we’ve brought back a number of stages that appeared in the last game. It’s...big... It’s perfect for those who like pursuit. We’ve tried to create an exact replica, but there may be a few areas that differ from the last game. I hope you understand. In general, the Melee stages have the same background music as in the last game, but we’ve also prepared some tracks like this. "Zelda II: Adventure of Link: Great Temple/Temple" (0:54)

With Friodays update being "Melee Stages" and not "Past Stages" I'm guessing we'll get N64 stages again. Hopefully Hyrule Castle from the origonal.

Indeed Funky. I enjoyed the Pokemon stage from original Smash Bros just because it was fun pinning someone against the door and having Venisaur pop out and send that guy flying

Another thing came to me a minute ago. I think King K.Rool might be in Brawl. In one of the Sub Space videos, Mario gets hit by a huge cannon ball, just like the ones K. Rool used. I know thats not evidence in itself but remember Bowsers Koopa Troopas stole DKs Bananas in another video. So DK has to deal with Marios nemesis (Bowser) and Mario has to deal with DKs nemesis (K. Rool). So I think he'll be in, maybe as just a boss, but he'll be in. What do you think? |

Friend List
The Wii console includes a function called Wii Friends, but you will register a separate list of Smash friends.
That’s your Friend Code in the top-right. Please exchange these numbers with your friends. Write a note, do it over the phone, or send it by e-mail – just share your numbers with each other. Then input your friend’s Friend Code. Once you’ve both input your codes, it’ll look something like this. Oh! It comes with comments. You can enter your own icon and comments. This is where you enter your short taunt messages. The preparation ends there. After this, you won’t have to do it every time. So, let’s play a game! In that case, someone has to enter someone else’s game. You can see if they’re online or hosting a match. If you want to play together, just select that person’s name and choose OK! Join someone who is hosting a match. Once all participants select OK... ...you can play. Yep. Simple. Simple is best. By the way, the circle at the top-right of your Friend Roster approximates the connection quality of your last connection. The closer it is to blue, the smoother you’ll be able to play. |

Don't know why he hasn't been announced though. Unless he's unlockable again and they wont mention who the unlockables are on the site but that only works if everyone announced so far is the starting roster and I doubt you would start with all of them. |
