Pikmin is okay, but I'd much rather see Megaman, Ridley, Geno, Mallow, someone like that.
Even so...pretty cool. Still wish we had a complete comprehensive list. Waiting this out sucks. |

Snake: Final Smash
Grenade Launcher Snake’s Final Smash is the Grenade Launcher. What is he calling in...? Suddenly he does a great jump! Choppa-choppa-choppa! Snake grabs the rope ladder the helicopter drops and takes out his grenade launcher! So, the thing to do is shoot, right? Poom! Poom! Poom! You control the targeting reticule and press the attack button to fire grenades one at a time. There are six rounds, and when you run out... ...he loads a new clip? How can that be? It ends when you shoot 12 rounds or run out of time. Snake then climbs back up to return to battle. Yep. He makes his exit. It’s probably better to just shoot all your rounds rather than run out of time leaving ammo behind...but if you just shoot indiscriminately, your shots may be dodged. When there are two or more enemies, it might be a good idea to hit one while he is being attacked by the other, or something along those lines. |

Pikmin & Olimar: Special Moves
Captain Olimar is among the most specialised characters within the cast of Smash Bros. Brawl.
In order to really unleash Olimar’s full potential, you’ve got to have a good knowledge of his helpful cohorts, the Pikmin! Standard Special Move: Pikmin Pluck Pluck, pluck, pluck up Pikmin. First, uproot a few Pikmin from the ground. You can have up to six Pikmin at one time. As long as there is ground beneath your feet, you can reach down and pull up a Pikmin, but be aware that certain Pikmin are more likely to appear in specific types of flooring. There are 5 types of Pikmin to use! - Red Pikmin -
- Yellow Pikmin -
- Blue Pikmin -
- Purple Pikmin -
- White Pikmin -
You can work out which Pikmin you will attack with next by looking at the order they are lined up in. You’ll use a Red Pikmin in your next attack. In order to perform a Smash Attack, certain mid-air attacks, and even throws, you’re going to need Pikmin! Anyhow, just do your best to not kill off your platoon. Olimar doesn’t stand much of a chance by himself. Pikmin don’t have graves, you know. Side Special Move: Pikmin Throw Throw Pikmin that latch on to your opponent! They’ll cause an enemy’s damage percentage to slowly rise! Up Special Move: Pikmin Chain If you think you’re about to plunge to your doom, this right here is your best chance for survival. The recovery distance for this technique is dependent upon the number of Pikmin currently in your troop! Just imagine what would’ve happened if you had had one less Pikmin! Down Special Move: Pikmin Order Call back Pikmin who have managed to separate from you. You can also use this technique to shift a new Pikmin to the front of the line. Tweeet! Line up, everyone! So there you have it. I bet you’re a little confused by his eccentric play style. But don’t fret! It’s easier than it looks. Spend some time playing around with him. That’s key. Whoa, the battlefield sure is crowded today... Last edited by Drakul; 01-11-2008 at 02:31 AM. |

I have to say: that's a cool recovery.

That recovery is easily one of the ten greatest things I've ever seen happen in a videogame.

Seriously, though. It's up on the same list as Dahlia eating a fetus in Silent Hill 3.

Apparantly Snake and Sonic are unlockables. If they are then do you think anything else we've seen has been an unlockable? I was wanting surprises left for me to discover on my own but I've probably seen everything in the game now without realising it.

They should not even mention Megaman and just put him in the game. When you beat Adventure mode with Snake and Classic mode with sonic you unlock him. That would rule.

I'm positive there's going to be so much more than what they have released. It would just be bad practice otherwise.

With the last two games, they didn't release the unlockable characters until after the game was already out. Dojo hasn't said explicitly yet whether or not Snake and Sonic are secret characters, nor have I seen any other really reliable source put it down for sure.
Chances are good that there's still unlockables o'plenty. |

Some Japanese magazine called "Coro Coro" did a big thing about Brawl, some guy translated it and said the magazine said Sonic and Snake where unlockables. Anyway, I'm hoping the Dojo doesn't give away all the unlockables.

This month. By the time we get it 'Stateside, there will probably be no doubt as to who's on the full roster.
There's still no sign of alot of the classic characters--while Pichu, Roy, Marth, Ness, and Dr. Mario are pretty likely to get the boot, I don't really know why they'd abruptly get rid of Luigi, Game & Watch, Jiggs and Captain Falcon. Especially Captain Falcon, since F-Zero has Assist Trophies in the game already. I keep thinking Falcon might be unlockable if they switched up his appearance dramatically--there's talk of redesigning him for future F-Zero games. |

ALSO, the revealing of Snake and Sonic are understandable. Snake was the big hype getter from the very first trailer, and was there to make sure everybody knew third parties are okay now--let it sink in before you get any further, y'know.
Sonic was revealed because--let's face it--if they hadn't, news of the pushed back release date would have started fanboy riots. |

With Ike confirmed, I don't think Roy's going to make it.

There is a bunch of Smash Bros events over the next few days so we should get a lot of info.
I didn't see it mentioned in any of the above posts but Smashville has the Animal Crossing main theme as a BGM. |

I have to say I was hoping for a Rosalina alternate costume for Peach, but I guess I'll deal.

For the record: of the characters I frequently use, Peach is the only confirmed to return. My Brawl mains include Ganondorf, Luigi, and Marth.

Challenges
Trophies, stickers, music...
Super Smash Bros. Brawl certainly has its share of rewards for you to collect. Among them all are several for which I’ve set certain appearance conditions. So, to help you manage these performance-based rewards, I’ve created the Challenges mode. This mode gives you hints about what you need to do to unlock these items! This is the Challenges screen. It’s totally empty. I’d say that if anyone saw this empty screen in-game, it would be an extremely rare occurrence. Each one of these windows has some condition or other that will unlock it. When you meet a set of conditions while playing through the game, its window will automatically break open. KSSSSHHH! Then you get what’s inside! If there’s a CD inside, you can listen to that CD on the spot. Hmmm... Nice. When a window breaks, you’ll see a red silhouette of the windows on either side. When you align the cursor with these windows, you can see the conditions for breaking them open, too. As you can see... Use this to take on challenge after challenge so you can earn more, more, MORE prizes! It’s much easier to get excited about it when you know what you have to do. By the way, you can use as many Golden Hammers as there are down below. Even windows that aren’t open... ...can be broken open with a little force! But use the hammers at your own discretion. Once used, a hammer will never return. You’ll want to save them for challenges you just can’t seem to overcome. Oh, but you should also know that there are some windows even a trusty Golden Hammer won’t break. And be careful of friends who might egg you on. I mean, imagine you have a hammer, some pristine glass, and a friend who just keeps telling you to break the glass... It makes you want to break it, huh?

Distant Planet
Pikmin’s protagonist, Captain Olimar, was forced to make an emergency landing on this unexplored planet.
Let’s just call it the Distant Planet for now, shall we? The flooring in the middle of the stage is made of vines and is very bouncy. As you play, you’ll see numbered Pellets fall from the Pellet Posies around the stage. Grab one of these and throw it into a nearby Onion to get items. Here’s a Pellet and an Onion. Also, this planet experiences frequent torrential downpours. When things get wet, you’ll want to stay away from the hill on the left, as it gets pretty treacherous. Whoa, that’s some fierce rain right there! Oh yeah – there are some fierce creatures prowling the area, so watch your step. You sure it’s safe to stand there? ......What am I saying? Of course it’s not safe! Anyway, take care that you don’t get gobbled up. Chomp! |

I'm not sure why he has delayed it again. Maybe he wanted to have a worldwide release so he's delaying it until the PAL version is done (I think Japans release was delayed for a week or two aswell). It's probably just a shipping problem though.
After the delay was announce his wikipedia page was vandelised with a bunch of stupid things like him being killed by angry fans etc. GameFAQS poster seemed to take the delay very personally . |
