Title: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart

40 SSBB Characters?
Sakurai stated he wants a roster 40 deep, with 1-2 more non-Nintendo characters.

"...We've also, unfortunately, learned of three current characters that will not be returning: The Ice Climbers, Mr. Game & Watch, and Young Link have no home in SSBB. We don't know who exactly will take their place just yet, but Sakurai stated he wants a roster 40 deep, with 1-2 more non-Nintendo characters."
I wonder who the characters will be....


(http://www.smashbrosbrawl.net/id5-40-SSBB-Characters-News.html)

I think I was looking through one of those wiibreeding.com sites or something, and started punching in letters in a search and this came up. I'm sure most of you may have heard this tid-bit already, seeing as many of you seemed to have been following the Wii news longer than I have. But, I wanted to create this post as a celebration. I was not fortunate enough to own a Gamecube, but I was still able to play Super Smash Melee. And immedietely after picking up the controller, I developed a pure hatred for the Ice Climbers for many reasons.

1) They're fat and not annoying. I hate their eery smiles.
2) They're clothing looks as if it was picked out by one of the guys from 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy'
3) Little wooden mallets? Sure, this was considered a threat to 8-bit Pterodactyls that flew around poorly constructed mountains that were easily demolished by those might little wooden mallets. But wooden mallets? You got to be kidding me.
4) One is a boy, the other a girl. And they are in complete cooperation. This is unlikely. Seeing as man has been at war with woman since the dawn of age, clubbing her over the head and dragging her back to his domain so that she may make him pancakes.

Until the Ice Climers dual wield flame throwers, I'm glad to see them say good-bye to SSBB. Man....I hate them so much.

I'm just curious. Did anyone like the Ice Climbers? Or at least, was anyone efficient at using them? And by efficient, I mean relatively good enough to win several matches with.

Thats pretty good. I'd still rather see the Ice Climbers killed.

E3 is just getting better and better. For many, Nintendo ignoring the new incarnation of Smash Bros. during their press conference was bad news - where had the title gone? Would it still make launch? These questions have now been answered.

Nintendo have held an after-hours press conference where the game was shown off in trailer form. Titled Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the game will feature many playable characters, with Mario, Kirby, Pikachu and Link all confirmed as returning. Additionally, Wario (complete with fart-attack), Pit from Kid Icarus, a suit-less Samus, Metaknight from Kirby and Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid were all confirmed to be playable. That's right, Snake - complete with cardboard box to hide in (the trailer featured him actually climbing out of the box and saying "It's showtime!" Even the Nintendogs will feature, as a new weapon that will see a cute puppy jump up to obscure your opponents view of the screen!

Directed by series creator Masahiro Sakurai, the title will feature combat using a classic, GameCube style, as well as via new motion-sensitive gameplay. To confirm - you'll be able to play this with, and without motion sensitive controls.

Robust single-player, multi-player and online modes are promised, along with plenty more characters. Apparently Snake was included after Hideo Kojima himself practically "begged" the character was inlcuded in Smash Bros. Melee. Sonic was suggested as a character that could appear in the game as well, to which Shigeru Miyamoto responded that: There are probably possibilities for other third parties as well, and it maybe that even know there are corporate discussions going on about including some of these other characters."

Unfortunately, Nintendo confirmed the game has slipped to a 2007 release date, though Metroid Prime 3: Corruption will be a launch title instead! Keep it locked to R-E for the latest!

There's some more information on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. One of my first posts stated that my first love was the Sega (Genesis), and frankly I would greet Sonic with open arms to Super Smash Brothers. Not only that, but all those internet videos that featured Mario VS Sonic would finally become a reality. I hope Sonic does come in...it would be my new addiction, just like when I was 13 and watched the censored Girls Gone Wild infommercials because I thought it was awesome porn.

Forgot about 3rd party charcters! Lets see some Soul Caliber guys, i mean, they got to use link, let us use Nightmare :D or Talim, hell Ill live with Berserker.


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Puff Daddy on June 10, 2006, 10:11:22 AM
Haha...

The only reason I don't want to Soul Caliber is because they already have a game to fight on. I want to have an entirely unique game, that includes mainly action/adventure, platforming game characters beating up on one another. That's what makes Super Smash Bros so unique. Where else could you find the almighty Jigglypuff opening a can of whoop ass on Link?

Post by: spawn on June 10, 2006, 11:34:59 AM
lamo good point, well probably see a new pokemon in there, maybe a new starfox charecter (a baddie would be nice) and prolly something from MP:Hunters, or i hope


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Puff Daddy on June 10, 2006, 11:03:15 PM
I had seen a list of characters that were being considered for the game, but I didn't bookmark the page and now it is long lost in the internet archives. I was using ask.com as a quick, simple search so maybe you could see what jeeves is up to and find it that way --- after all if i found it there, it should still be there somewhere.

I think I heard Bowser Jr. And I know there was a gorcery list of many others as well, many that I didn't know. But then again, I was never a real big Nintendo fan until recently so I do lack some knowledge on Nintendo's older games.

maybe they will add metroids in somehow, like an item or something


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Puff Daddy on June 11, 2006, 10:19:57 AM
From the video I saw, I do know there are some new items as well.

Whatever you want to call these items, the ones that you pick up, throw, and an attack comes out of it such as the pokeball, charizard comes out and sprays fire everywhere. Well, the one will be a Nintedog waving his paws about as everyone goes flying. Check out the news portion of this site, and there should be videos somewhere, and the one is SSBB. Its like 2 min and 27 secs. It seems short, but tells a lot.

I think everyone agrees ice climbers SUCK heshe balls . anyway is young link really leaving ??? he was pretty good! sylux would be a sweet hunter

I don't know Weavel is cool 8) .In Metriod Prime Hunters Weavel is able to split in two. One part is a torsocannon and the other is a hopping assasin. But anyway I think anyone would be awsome. Here is a question for anybody : Does anyone know other characters besidesthe usual characters like Mario and Luigi :?:


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Dragonmaster on August 19, 2006, 09:39:20 PM
To ad to my earlier letter from what I have heard is that  Young Link will be leaving :cry:


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: MetroidHunter on August 19, 2006, 10:15:50 PM
I hate that move that Weavel can do, but it is pretty cool. It's especially lethal if you leave the turret behind in a busy hallway or near an item spawn spot.


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: spawn on August 19, 2006, 11:51:01 PM
for brawl? or for Mario games?


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Mrfudge on August 20, 2006, 05:59:16 AM
I heard rumors about the people from Golden Sun on GBA being in it, but it was fans of the games who weretalking about it so I guess it's not that likely. But aren't games developed by guys like Camelot and Intelligent Systems classed as Nintendo games?, 'Cos then there could be Advance Wars characters :D


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: spawn on August 20, 2006, 09:57:47 AM
'nintendo charecters' are game charecters created by nintendo, Samus, Mario, etc

Oh that's okay Spawn, but you all can use that useful tid bit if you ever play as Weavel. lol


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: raving rabid on August 20, 2006, 11:25:15 PM
weavel would be a smart choice since he's been in other metroids


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: spawn on August 21, 2006, 01:25:11 AM
i like noxus and slyux the most :D and spire, he looks cool

i think any other hunter would be nice to see in brawl

(btw on combat hall, have weavels turret go into the wall, glitched, and u can hit anyone regardless of postition) i got killed by that a lot 1 game :(


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: raving rabid on August 21, 2006, 10:54:58 AM

No offence, but they are not that challenging at any level(or at least, not to me, my brother or my dad anyway).

Anywhooo, I didn't really like the Climbers anyway. Mr Game & Watch and Young Link will be surely missed, though. There was a rumor somewhere on the net about Young Link being replaced by the Cel-shaded Link. Of course, it's only a rumor and not yet confirmed.

As long as Captain Falcon will still be there to beat up on, air sickness and all, I suppose it will all be alright.

I had a friend that used to use the Ice Climbers but he gave up and went with Zelda and he was deadly. Yeah I've heard about Cel Shaded Link being in there too, he would look awful weird up next to the realistic characters though.


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart

whats cel shaded :?:


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: Marink on August 22, 2006, 04:25:04 AM
Have you ever played The Wind Waker? That's cel-shading.


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: MetroidHunter on August 22, 2006, 02:47:46 PM
Yeah that's where it originated pretty much and now it's in many games, like Killer 7.

Weren't all the characters in Paper Mario Cel-shaded or were they 3D? I'm not sure :?


Title: Re: 40 SSBB Characters, 3 depart
Post by: MetroidHunter on August 22, 2006, 09:15:40 PM
They are like 2.5D of that's how Paper Mario is, it's sort of like Viewtiful Joe. Where it's not exactly 2D and not really cel shaded or 3D.

No, they are not quite cel-shaded. They are just flat, 2D characters in a sort of third dimensional world.

You can turn corners and stuff like that in Paper Mario right? I know you can in Viewtiful Joe.

Yeah, and go up spiraling staircases and stuff like that too.

My friend used to play with the Ice Climbers and he was doing good with them, but then he switched to Samus and crushed.
