Sir_NutS Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Well I didn't see that final smash coming. Pretty kickass.
eternal Zero Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 That is one awesome final smash. Incredible nod back to good times. Though they didn't mention any indication of the yellow yoshi/shell power. That wouldn't have been so hard to add after that, would it?
Neo Samus Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Well I didn't see that final smash coming. Pretty kickass. Ditto. Makes me very anxious to see everyone else's Final Smash. Also the song very cool too. I loved when K.K. Slider starts singing. I LOL'd!
Airwalker Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Woah, two updates in one day. I hope that becomes more common.
Paratha Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 "Heroes always arrive late." zomg SPECULATION. Maybe we will have an Animal Crossing character after all.
The Author Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 zomg SPECULATION. Maybe we will have an Animal Crossing character after all. Has there ever been a stage where no characters from the game were available to play?
Thylacine Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Has there ever been a stage where no characters from the game were available to play?Battlefield and Final Destination immediately spring to mind. Unless you count hacking into Master Hand, of course. There's also some characters who had two stages (Ness) and some who technically had none (Fire Emblem?).I can't imagine who they'd include as a character for Animal Crossing. The case has been made many times over already: every reasonable character from that game has appeared in the Smashville screenshots. Who would we control? Wendell? Assist trophies are even in question under these circumstances. I like the Yoshi update. Wasn't expecting that. I'm probably going to go into game detail lockdown after this week. It does seem to be reaching "spoiler territory" and I'd like to be caught off-guard by one or two things.
Scufo Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Heh, funny how people were complaining that the updates just tell us useless crap/crap we already know in the beginning, and now they're telling us so much that we don't want to hear any more.
Penfold Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Battlefield and Final Destination immediately spring to mind. If I'm not mistaken, those were simply original stages no? I'd guess his question was more along the lines of "has there ever been a stage derived from another game from which there was no character?"
Eulogic Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Has there ever been a stage where no characters from the game were available to play? Of course, that doesn't mean there won't be in Brawl. There were plenty of things in Melee that had no precedent in the original game. That said, I don't think a playable Animal Crossing character is unlikely.

Actually, I'd love it if instead of wire frames they have a bunch of Miis runnig around to beat up. Oh man, that'd be sweet.
Dunther Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 The Miis must be something different from the AC character that probabilly be in Brawl...

I'd love to hear the announcer say Mii when you select it. "Miiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!"
Rambo Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I actually thought about that earlier today. I'd love to hear the announcer say Mii when you select it."Miiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!" hahahahaha I didn't even understand until I tried belting it out in the announcer voice. Thats great.
Eulogic Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I had the idea of unlocking your own specific Animal Crossing character from your copy of AC:WW by connecting your DS to your Wii via wireless connection. The character will have the appearance and name of your character in Animal Crossing, and could be updated to correspond to changes in your appearance in AC at any time simply by reconnecting the DS to the Wii. If you do not have a DS or Animal Crossing, the character could be unlocked by playing against someone else's Animal Crossing character online, in which case you will gain access to that character (in terms of appearance and name). Similarly, an AC character could be saved onto the Wii controller or an SD card and transferred between machines.
Imagist Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 That would actually kick ass if I could envision the standard Animal Crossing character actually fighting in any way, shape or form. Oh wait... here it comes. Headbutts and twirly spin attacks for A moves, tools like shovel and slingshot for B moves, fishing rod for grab (catch 'em on a giant fish hook). Best of all? Final smash: bug net. Like Link's Triforce attack, you ensnare one character so that--get this--a giant fuckin' swarm of bees descends upon them and stings them to hell and back. Yes! EDIT: Is it just me or do I start a lot of pages in very long threads?

Final smash: bug net. Like Link's Triforce attack, you ensnare one character so that--get this--a giant fuckin' swarm of bees descends upon them and stings them to hell and back. I was thinking more: B: Slingshot - A charged ranged attack. >B: Net - A strong attack. Can reflect (like Ness' bat) if timed correctly. ^B: Fishing Rod - If you strike your opponent, it will grab them and draw them close to you. Also used as a tether recovery. vB: Shovel - Digs your opponent into the ground, temporarily stunning them. Final Smash: Golden Weapons - All of his B moves become temporarily faster and MUCH more powerful, both in terms of damage and knockback. His attack-while-grabbing could be to shake the opponent like a tree.
Dunther Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 >B: Net - A strong attack. Can reflect (like Ness' bat) if timed correctly. The Ness' bat can reflect!? .... Anyway nice ideas =)
Zeklan Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 19 characters confirmed so far with soo many days left til december... This is going to be one hell of a game.
The Author Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 >B: Net - A strong attack. Can reflect (like Ness' bat) if timed correctly. Nah, I see more as a "grab and throw" move where you grab the adversary, spin around and throw him back. I guess it could be used as a reflect. If you want a straight forward attack use the axe.
Arek the Absolute Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 19 characters confirmed so far with soo many days left til december...This is going to be one hell of a game. How many is this game going to have? I really hope they have at least 1.5 times more than they had in Melee.
Dunther Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 How many is this game going to have? I really hope they have at least 1.5 times more than they had in Melee. I think that won't be more than 30...
The Mutericator Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I think that won't be more than 30... The only official statement we have is "less than fifty".
