Four Special Move Types
The actions that really define the personality of each character are the special moves! In Brawl, you can do four different moves with just one button and different directional tilts on the Control Stick.
These are the four types. Control for each is quite simple. Standard special moves Our model was Meta Knight.Many of these are basic attacks, like the firing of a weapon. (Normal Special Move: Mach Tornado) Side special moves These are bold attacks that launch in the direction you tilt the stick. (Side Special Move: Triple Dash) Up special moves These are crucial. They’re used to do high jumps and for recovering when you’re falling off the stage. (Up Special Move: Shuttle Loop) Down special moves Many of these do unusual things, like reflect enemy attacks. (Down Special Move: Dimensional Cape) To enjoy more of the depth of the special moves, try holding the button down longer to charge up attacks, rapidly pressing the button repeatedly, or tilting the Control Stick while doing the moves. You might also want to try them in mid-air. Surprisingly, there’s a variety of hidden uses for many of them. |

Pokémon Trainer: Special Moves
The Pokémon Trainer commands three types of Pokémon. His down special move is a Pokémon Change, so each Pokémon has three special moves!
That’s nine in all. Amazing! Squirtle Up Special Move: Waterfall Squirtle splashes up the water torrent. Squirtle Side Special Move: Withdraw Is this the turtle’s so-called shell? It slides along the ground. Ivysaur Standard Special Move: Bullet Seed It fires a rapid seed barrage straight up in the air! Ivysaur Up Special Move: Vine Whip It can grab the edge with its whip! That was TOO close! Charizard Standard Special Move: Flamethrower We just had to have this. It is Charizard, after all. Charizard Side Special Move: Rock Smash It smashes rocks with its head. Bam! A solid hit from this delivers a mighty blow!! Supplement your shortcomings and take advantage of your strengths. You must co-operate to push on! |

Gliding
Characters like Pit, Meta Knight and the Pokémon Trainer’s Charizard are envied at first glance for their wings.
Rumour has it they can use those wings to sail through the sky like gliders. But that can’t be true, can it? They... They’re really flying! Magnificent! From the perspective of the rules of Smash, I sense that mastering this skill could be quite beneficial. That is, IF you can master it... First, do a mid-air jump! If you continue holding the jump button, you’ll start gliding. You don’t have to hold down the jump button, though. At the peak of your mid-air jump, you can also rapidly tilt the Control Stick backwards to forwards to link the jump to a glide. Tilt the stick down (or forwards) to angle down. Tilt the stick up (or backwards) to aim high. Since it’s glider-style flight, you fly based on how you’re angled. You can control both your angle and your speed by pitching your "nose" up or down. You can’t change direction though, so be careful! If you stall out in mid-air or get attacked, your flight will be cancelled. |

WarioWare
In the WarioWare games, you must master a variety of microgames in 5 seconds, making them the fastest and shortest games ever. You might want to look into it in more detail.
In trying to recreate that atmosphere in Smash Bros. Brawl, we’ve created an outrageous stage! Stay dry! Dodge! Jump! Wh-what the heck is this? What is going on? What kind of joke is this? For each challenge you clear, there is, of course, a reward. The typical screen looks like this. Ah, what floor would you like, Smash? |

I enjoyed Twilight Princess and Mortal Kombat:Armageddon but both seemed over too soon and pretty easy. WarioWare is good as well but I haven't played many Wii games yet. Just Wii Sports which comes with the Wii, Zelda, Excite Truck, Warioware, MK and I just bought Eledees (Elebits in the US) which is pretty fun. Sonic and the Secret Rings wasn't so great for me though, I took it back the next day. |

I think his final smash will most likely be transforming into Ganon or something similair to Links final smash but more powerful and with an evil feel to it.

If they use alternative costumes for characters instead of the usual colour swap, then Warios yellow/purple costume will probably be his alternative.

Possibley the games cover art?
I found this on the Official Nintendo Magazine forums. It looks cool and very professionally done. I haven't seen any of the art used before so I beileve it is real or at least a temporary cover.
Sorry for the small size. edit: Found a bigger picture. Last edited by Drakul; 09-05-2007 at 11:31 AM. |

Diddy Kong: Special Moves
For some reason, Diddy has a weapon made of wood. Is that jungle technology?
Standard Special Move: Peanut Popgun It’s a peanut shooter! This is Diddy’s projectile weapon. You can boost the speed of your shots by holding down the button... But if you hold it down too long, the gun explodes, so be careful. Also, if the shell breaks and a peanut pops out, you can apparently eat the peanut. You recover a little damage when you eat it. Is this for real? Up Special Move: Rocketbarrel Boost It’s a double-barrelled jet engine! If you charge this up before using it, your jump power increases. And if you tilt the Control Stick left or right while charging it up... ...you can even curve your flight path! If you get attacked while riding your Rocketbarrel Boost, you’ll lose your barrels...and they can sometimes go flying away on their own Danger! Danger! |

Meta Knight
It's Meta Knight, whose introduction was delayed for some reason. He's Kirby's...rival? Despite being almost all head, his mask and cape exude coolness. He overwhelms enemies with his mach-speed sword! |

Pokémon Stadium 2
The previous game, Super Smash Bros. Melee, featured Pokémon Stadium, but it’s been upgraded for this game into Pokémon Stadium 2.
This time around, you’ll see guest Pokémon appearing in the background. Ordinarily, it’s a fairly orthodox stage when nothing special is happening. But as time passes, the terrain transforms into four different types: "Electric", "Ground", "Flying" and "Ice." When it transforms into Ice, things get extremely slippery! A mountain of earth appears in the middle of the screen for the Ground stage! On the Flying stage, everyone’s jump abilities get boosted! For these four transformations, we’ve chosen types that were not present in Melee. Terrain that changes suddenly makes fights excitingly unpredictable. |

Mario: Special Moves
Down Special Move: F.L.U.D.D. It appears Mario has a new special move! It’s F.L.U.D.D. He really is carrying F.L.U.D.D. on his back! Tilt the Control Stick down and press the B Button to charge up... Hose ‘em down! Blast those enemies away. It does absolutely no damage – it’s just for sending opponents great distances. You can even charge it up while shielding. It’s best used in critical moments. Huh? What happened to the down special move he’s had up until now – the Mario Tornado? He still seems to have this move, though. Eh? Is it a normal attack?! |

My Music
With the "My Music" feature, you can enjoy the music of our many musicians any way you like. Choose freely from our diverse selection of famous songs!
This is "My Music" in action! The battle stages of Super Smash Bros. Brawl feature a diverse line-up of game worlds. For example, there are stages based on the Mario universe. Basically, there is only one song that plays on each stage. But even among the myriad songs of the Mario universe, people probably have different favourites. Plus, while there may be people who stepped into the Mario universe in the original Nintendo Entertainment System days, surely there are some who first experienced Mario on the Nintendo DS. With that in mind, I think it’s a bit of a waste to limit that whole universe to just one song. So we’ve prepared many songs and will let you choose the likelihood that any given song will be played. This is "My Music" for Delfino Plaza. For songs you’re particularly fond of, you can increase the likelihood those songs will appear. Then, when you brawl on that stage, the chance of your preferred songs being played increases. Of course, if you want to, you can limit a stage to only one song, or make every song in the game equally likely to appear. I’ve asked our reputable list of musicians to provide many songs for this particular game. But that’s certainly not because I just wanted to cover all these songs. I’ve asked them to choose the songs that match their personalities and tastes! Here you will find the best of the best – something you can very rarely get a chance to savour. If your motivation behind your song selections is simply because you like them, then that’s just fine. Choose your settings as you like. Just so you know, there may be songs from other games that are left as is, without any new arrangement. Oh, and by the way, there’s an item in the game called a CD. This is a CD. Regardless of which mode you’re playing, if you see one of these, be absolutely sure to grab it. If you want to know why, it’s because CDs are the way you add to your music selection. |

Munchlax
Munchlax is the pre-evolved form of Snorlax. It slowly walks around. It’s extremely carefree, but it’s said to be the glutton of the Pokémon... An item appeared! Don’t eat that! I guess Munchlax is a bit of an item hog. Any item it gets, it eats! It’s kind of hard to tell it to stop, though. |

Lyn
A young girl from the Sacae plains, Lyn (whose true name is Lyndis) makes a guest appearance from the Game Boy Advance game Fire Emblem. Lyn descends gallantly. She looks tough. She wields what looks like a classical Japanese sword, so she’s similar to Samurai Goroh, but her sword strokes are a little different from his reckless slashing. She crouches and builds up power... She vanished?! The flash of a blade! You’ll get helplessly cut down if you suffer a solid blow from this blade. If you call her forth as your ally, grab your enemies to make them easier for her to hit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope tomorrows update isn't another assist trophy. Is anyone else looking forward to seeing what music is available in the "My music" thing? If you look at the screens for the My Music thing, you see the Dark World theme from LttP |

Battleship Halberd
It has arrived! The Battleship Halberd! It’s Meta Knight’s battleship...isn’t it?
This warship’s bow is dazzling! This stage begins in a hangar on the high seas. The platform follows the Halberd as it departs. Ooooh. It’s so dynamic! Eventually, you land on the ship’s deck. What you see in the background is a double-barrelled battery. With an arm. Use extreme caution near the double-barrelled battery! It launches beams and missiles, and even attacks with its arm. Dodge it well and try to make it hit your foe! The Battleship Halberd appears not only in multiplayer Brawl stages, but also plays a very important role in The Subspace Emissary. That role is something you’ll have to look forward to. |

Special Brawl
What is Special Brawl?!
This is a mode that lets you apply special rules to normal brawls to customise your favourite ways to play! This is the Special Brawl Screen! As you can see, you can apply a variety of rules at the same time. Before, you could only choose one, like Giant Melee, so this is a pretty cool step forward. First, let’s try putting on the Bunny Hood. And then add metal... When you do this, you apply that characteristic from the start of the match to the end. You can see the effects on the side of the screen, which is kind of fun. And getting the caption up above is also nice. It’s a Stamina Mega Flower Curry Heavy Slow Angled Brawl! And that’s how you fight! Please try out a variety of different Brawl settings. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This game looks better and better. |

Ice Climbers
The one in blue is Popo. The one in pink is Nana. And the two of them get along great! ...I think. These two move as a pair, with Nana automatically following along. There’s safety in numbers – protect and be protected! |
