I always imagined Kirby with Wario powers as having a wario hat and wario's nose & moustache. Haha, and he'd fart for a special move. That'd be awesome. Haha

I know it's already been said, but ... thank goodness the rumors about all those character omissions have to eat it now. *sigh of relief* Glad to see the annoying little buggers.

this update is cool but with only a few exceptions (and the ability to combine special melee options) most of this stuff is just from melee. I was hoping we'd seen more status affecting things like the bunny hood, the flower, and curry, but it appears the only NEW things in this is, well, curry and "reflect," which I guess is either the affect of the Franklin Badge, or just all projectiles reflect. Metal Mario looks pretty sweet.

I would love that. Maybe a mounted spearman. I don't know how a horse would play in the mix, but it'd be hella awesome I bet. Maybe you spawned with it, but could fall of it and it'd run away or something, hell, i dunno. Haha. A horse would just be silly actually, but hey, Wario has a motorcycle so maybe it could work. *shrugs* ... waits for update... Edit: Halberd! That's a pretty cool looking level. I like how it's a battleship. A version of something like this with Bowser's floating battlehips would be awesome too. Heh. I like how it starts not moving, and then starts flying all over the damn place, then you're actually fighting on it. Good stuff.

I liked Lyn, but I'm totally cool with her being an assist trophy. I'm cool with this. I hope we see a few more Fire Emblem assist trophies as there are some sweet characters from that franchise.

hahahaha. That little fattie is hilarious! That could be a lot of fun in battles with a lot of items... i wonder if it can eat items people are using... that would really be a nice ability but I doubt it'll be able to do that... and I also wonder how long it hangs around the battlefield. haha. what a great little Pokemon. It's endearingly fat. haha.

I just lawled.

Oh!!!!! I love this Music collection and customization aspect!! cool!!! That's really cool, much better than holding buttons down!!!! I'm diggin the main theme, the Pokemon one not so much though, but it does bring back a lot of memories from Red and Blue. And... what the hell... "Look! Samus is evolving!" He could have at least used a Pokemon name there... unless that's the name of one his pkmn... OH SAKURAI!

wow... I'm digging Pokemon Stadium 2. Love all the extra references to the types... although I do want to know what the other transformations look like. Don't know how I feel about Mario's new move. It's cool I guess, the spin move didn't deserve 'special move status' since it wasn't a real reference to other Mario games (unless you count the spinning jump from SMW). I'm sure this will piss off plenty of people who played as Mario and Dr Mario, though. I'm cool with this update. Interesting stuff, double update, cool shots. *thumbs up*

When did Diddy use Rockets? I mean, he had them back in Mario Tennis on the Gamecube but... I just don't recall seeing him use a rocket pack in any DK games... maybe I'm forgetting. Can anyone tell me, I'd honestly like to know where it came from...? Anyway, awesome moveset! I love how he's got some interesting moves, plus the eat the peanuts for health thing. That's just neato. And... haha... that look on diddy's face when the gun explodes is hilarious. ... and the wild and crazy flying away rockets when you get hit is WICKED awesome. I love that!!!!! I hope they go all over the place. I'm liking Diddy. EDIT: Seriously though, one of the captions should have read "Do a Barrel Roll" ... come on now... you know it.

man the server is really getting hammered. I've seen about 1/4th of the vid...

Exactly what I was hoping to see in a Wario level!!!!!! ... I wonder if the 'mini-game levels' speed up over time like in WarioWare.

Okay, the first time I saw glide on the Smash Bros site I immediately thought of Knuckles the Echidna.... okay n/m... been playing too much Sonic & Knuckles... /offtopic Cool move though. A swoop like that would be real cool. I wonder if any items like a set of wings will show up that will let you do large gliding swoops with any of the other characters. (Maybe the wing cap from mario 64?) I mean, hey, they put the screw attack item in that affects what kind jump you can make, why not something to let other chars glide too. It looks like a lot of fun using that ability!

SOoooOOooOOO COOL! You can control the angle of descent and back up, that is awesome!

My guess is some kind of fly move. It'd be cool if he could utilize his wings some how though. If it does indeed utilize his wings (which it should) I hope it does different things when you're standing and when you're airborne... kind of how Link has two separate version of the UP+B special, one for the ground and one for air recovery. Neato though. You know as much as I like Squirtle and Charizard, Ivysaur seems to me the most interesting... and I didn't ever really like bulbasaur or any of its evolutions really. But still, in Brawl that Pokemon seems to have the most interesting move set so far imo.

I dig this update. Good times. Andross is essentially the perfect assist trophy imo. He's doing exactly what he did in StarFox, exactly. I like this kind of stuff. I want more retro goodness. Thumbs up! I also dig that that showed Meta Knight moves and said some moves will have hidden uses... but I guess it's been like that since Smash Bros 1, with Jigglypuffs punch move that could move you real far horizontally. Maybe we'll see more innovative uses this time around... I liked this update.

Okay, I don't know if anyone else saw this, and sorry if this is old news, but did you guys know that SSB:Brawl is using the Havok physics engine? http://www.havok.com/content/blogcategory/37/78/ I wonder how that'll affect the game, if it will at all. Sorry if this is old news, i didn't know so I figure some other die-hard smash fans wouldn't know either. I wonder if we'll see some interesting physics being applied.

I just don't get the arguments that say "X character has no attacks thus its relatively impossible for them to be in Smash?! OMGZZ!!" I mean half of all the attacks in Smash Brothers are made up FOR Smash Bros, maybe even 75%. Heck, Fox was only in an Arwing (with the exception of the StarFox 64 crappy 3rd person character multiplayer mode). He couldn't kick, he couldn't flip, he couldn't reflect things. He couldn't say "COME ON!" Nor could he do a little dash attack. NOR was it canon that he was speedy. Same goes for Captain Falcon. Falcon Punch is like the most awesome move ever, but it never originated from the F-Zero series. All of the above personalities were fleshed out by the Smash Bros series, and there are plenty more. Almost all of them have been with a few exceptions being Link, Pikachu, and Mario since they all follow their original molds. They could quite literally take an Animal Crossing character and make them do anything. Totakeke could attack with a guitar. An AC character (if one in fact is playable) could do anything. It's still up in the air if a character will show up, though. I seriously wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing levels in Brawl from a variety of games whose characters aren't represented on the playable characters list.

well technically wasn't it the MSX first? Edit: Well, I think if we see Mario and Sonic together in an Olympics game and NOT in Smash Bros, that would be a travesty!!!! The IGN guys that write for the Wii section think it's a no-brainer that Sonic will be in the game. I don't really like IGN with all their published speculation though. Hmmm... well, if Sonic WAS in Smash it would be the first good game the character has seen in quite a long time. Haha. *caresses Sonic Adventure GD-ROM*

OMG!!!!!!111 I was just playing through Super Mario World!!!!!!!! That is awesome that they're giving the nod back to the game of his origin!!!! _^__^_^ I love it when they do crap like that! Of course, his wings and fire are WAAAY more epic than they were in Super Mario World!!! Insanely awesome! I'm REeeeeally liking the music for Smashville btw. Very cool! It's got a real old school western vibe. Real cool. I'm very satisfied with this update.

its extra credit, I'm not in danger or anything, (at all) I just want to have the extra credit. Plus I'm ridiculously curious. thanks guys. I appreciate all your help.

that's all I have. That's how big the source image was.

EDIT: solved. Thanks guys. I can't name the games from this pic. I know every single one of them except 3 which I'm kind of iffy on. Can you guys help me out? Puhleez?

man, guess I'm going to have to wait til tomorrow to see the update. Well for those of you that are waiting for it, be extra happy if its something ridiculously awesome ... you know, to make up for my absence/lateness in viewing it. It's a delicate balance here on the OCR boards... ^_~ night all. *pouts*

Hmm... with all the info we've been getting, I'm willing to bet this next update will have very little information.
