atmuh Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 15 - Dōbutsu no Mori (Animal Crossing)16 - Meido in Wario (Wario Ware) 17 - Metaru Gia (Metal Gear) 18 - Hikari Shinwa: Parutena no Kagami (Kid Icarus) explain how that is in order
friendlyHunter Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 I made some mistakes in my post, it's now fixed Use the "P" in "Parutena no Kagami" [Edit] And now that the site has exactly 12 newcomers and 12 veterans... I'm guessing that they're not going to announce any new characters on the site, so we'll have to wait until the game's out (or at least until the information has leaked).
Global-Trance Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 I'm apparently missing something here...Where is this list located (if anywhere)...? If you're talking about the icon list, it comes from checking the file name of each icon that appears. For instance the flower icon next to Pikmin & Olimar is 22 and the file name is http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/images/icon/world_b_22.gif. All the icons from the site have been collected and compiled as such as the one I posted.

nookster Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 FINALLY, i fuckin told you so :D:D I knew he was gonna be in. Nintendo launched Pikmin as their IP, so they aren't going to neglect that. But sooooo fucking nice to have confirmed. And not only that, but the song's supervisor is Mitsuda? Mitsuda helping out with the pikmin song? DAMN Can't freakin wait for the Pikmin stage!
Rambo Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 I was never really interested in the series until I bought Pikmin 2 three weeks ago, and fell in love with the freakin' thing. So basically, with all dramatic timing... I blew my pants at this update.
Tables Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Well, I am pleasantly surprised. I can't possibly imagine a Final Smash for these guys, other then the classic mob rush. I can't think of any moves, really. Although, didn't Olimar have a cheapie pistol or something in the game? I can't remember.
SwordBreaker Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 LOL...glad that Olimar's finally in. The overworld theme song remix is pretty cool...very Celtic, typical of Mr. Mitsuda
eternal Zero Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Olimar has a whistle and his punch and/or rocket punch, but considering he stated that he can't even smash attack w/o his Pikmin, then his style should be quite interesting. First update I've been happy about in a long time.

I can't remember. in Pikmin 2 there were two sprays. One turned adjacent opponents to rock temporarily, and the other doubled the Pikmins' speed and strength temporarily. I'd put money on one of those being the final smash. Though I would like to see Olimar command 100 pikmin for a brief time.
The Author Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Am I the only one who sees Olimar as a grab characters. Like all of his moves will be grabs and throws?
Steben Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Am I the only one who sees Olimar as a grab characters. Like all of his moves will be grabs and throws? I imagine a 4-player match with all Olimars will be chaotic. "Hey is this my Pikmin?" When you discover it isn't, well, just remember to protect your watch.
Airwalker Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Yay, something of real substance. Something that made me say "Sweet". Although, I can't shake this feeling that Ollmar will become a character that I play once and absolutely hate. Then it will become a character some other player becomes really good at and dominates me. Just like Ice Climbers.
The Author Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 I feel like Olimar will be banned from Tourny play, too original.
Paratha Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Am I the only one who sees Olimar as a grab characters. Like all of his moves will be grabs and throws? He seems more like Zappa from Guilty Gear, in that he summons/obtains Pikmin to fight for him.
Thalzon Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Well, I'm satisfied now. The only thing that could make me go overboard with squeeing is if Mike Jones is a playable character. Maybe Muddy Mole, too.
Rambo Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 I feel like Olimar will be banned from Tourny play, too original. lol out loud
Airwalker Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Superb song by the way! I've never played Pikmin, but this is the best update in a while The Pikmin icon is #22, so: 15 - Dōbutsu no Mori (Animal Crossing) 16 - Meido in Wario (Wario Ware) 17 - Metaru Gia (Metal Gear) 18 - Hikari Shinwa: Parutena no Kagami (Kid Icarus) 19 - ??? 20 - Sonic 21 - Nintendo DS (not in alphabetical order) 22 - Pikmin (not in alphabetical order) Alright, crazy theory time! As established before, icons 15 to 18 are PROBABLY in alphabetical order by the English spellings of the series' Japanese names. Which means icons 15 to 20 might ALSO be in alphabetical order. If so, Rockman fits in to #19 perfectly, as was the theory. With 21 and 22, the alphabetical order is broken - this may suggest that the list of icons was made BEFORE they decided to add a DS stage and a Pikmin character (or, at least before they decided they were definitely going to keep them). If Rockman's in the game, he's a MAJOR character - they most likely would have started development with him early on (or, at least sealed the deal with Capcom early on). So, if Megaman is in the game, I'd be willing to bet he's #19. Anyway... I still have hope for Megaman!! Not tommorow though... Th-They wouldn't do two surprise newcomer updates in a row, would they?! [Edit] Ooops I bolded the wrong letter in Kid Icarus =p Fixed. Maybe they're just assigning random numbers to throw us all off. Of course it would be funny if the next icon that appears is like #73 or something.
Eulogic Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 English alphabetical order of the English spellings of Japanese names. And you think this is a viable theory?
The Author Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 English alphabetical order of the English spellings of Japanese names. And you think this is a viable theory? Well, anything goes in here, think of the clouds.
Global-Trance Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Maybe they're just assigning random numbers to throw us all off. Of course it would be funny if the next icon that appears is like #73 or something. It's not THAT random. Icons 01-11 = introduced in Smash 64. Icons 12-14 = introduced in Smash Melee. Icons 15-?? = introduced in Smash Brawl.
Neo Samus Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Sound's logical to me. I was really hoping that Olimar was goning to be in brawl. Thank you Sakurai-San. My prediction for tomorrow - Pikmin stage, AT Metroid (confirmed in commerical 1 for Japan), or how to save.
Airwalker Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 It's not THAT random. Icons 01-11 = introduced in Smash 64. Icons 12-14 = introduced in Smash Melee. Icons 15-?? = introduced in Smash Brawl. That's what they want you to think. Make it seem rational at first and them, blam! They mess it up. It's a conspiracy theory, I tell's ya!
Admiral_C Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 He's right. And it all culminates in Brawl being released for ALL platforms, AND PC. Then Nintendo takes over the world...
Neonlare Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 That's what they want you to think. Make it seem rational at first and them, blam! They mess it up. It's a conspiracy theory, I tell's ya! Akin to the Zelda Timeline then, amiright?
