Ike is in SSBB. Proof!

Ooh, looking at Ike and his unflinchingness, I might become an Ike-user...

This has been public knowledge for a while now >_>

Sweet, I might also train with him.

He's bound to be overshadowed by faster characters.

I'm kinda happy...but I'd have prefered Lyn or Hector....

Yeah, even though it sounds kinda preppy to say it, it's been circulating out there for a month or so, and the official page has had that info for a while.

I didn't know that. Cool.

I'll stick to Link :D

Boo, Ike, boo. Hector ftw.

Newest confirmed character: Pokémon Trainer. Check Pondy's link.

Yeah, I've known for a while, too. Maybe I should've of posted it... >.>

At first the pokemon trainer looked really stupid as a new character. After looking at him though, it actually looks kind of interesting to me.

That site updates every Monday-Friday, so check back every once in a while to learn some new features.

I really hope this game has online so I can face all you in it.

Alex, remember our grand face off!

If it does have online, we have to have a face off of the grandest proportions!

I read somewhere that it supported Wi-Fi and such, but it wasn't on the official homepage, so I can't confirm it. But, I mean, if people can play Wi-Fi with the next Pokémon game, I see no reason why they shouldn't implement it into one of the most popular games ever.

Well last time I was reading about it, they said they could implement wi fi but they arent sure if they could implement full out 4 player free for all wi fi though. I suppose I'd still be fine with one on one wi fi but, 4 player wi fi would be cool too.

Last I heard all wifi for 2007 was scrapped because kids were looking up porn on their Wii's. Why that's Nintendo's fault and not the parents I dont understand.

I'm not completely sure, but I beleave I heard that you could put a parental lock on the Wii so that your children could only access specific sites and games...

Yeah, Ike probably will be overshadowed by the faster characters. He seems to be an even stronger, albeit slower version of Roy. Plus he doesn't flinch during the attack but that just means that you can launch more blows on him during the recoil if you can get close enough without being hit, albeit that removes juggling potential a bit...
How do you think they'll handle the Pokemon Trainer when theres multiple players trying to use him anyways? I mean the trainer himself will obviously change colour, but will the pokemon just be given accessories like Pikachu and Jigglypuff, or will they have some other effects like having differant triangle'ded pokemon from the various generations.

Mario Strikers Charged has wi fi. So I'd assume since strikers has wifi that they havent cancelled wi fi. I mean it'd be pretty stupid if they did.

Heh, now that you brought it up, it gives you somethin to think about. Never thought about it.

I wont be talking about the game mechanics until the game comes out myself, that way I can see what you can still do from the old ones and if they took anything out, along with the cool little additions (like better aerial combat :) ).

All in all, really excited about it getting released if that wasnt obvious.

...not to be off topic, but I just downloaded the demo videos of Metroid Prime 3 onto my Wii thus reminding me...IT COMES OUT THIS MONTH!!!!!1!!!11 I'm pretty stoked for that

more on topic: that Devil trophy looks like oodles of fun

Yeah, I think the devil trophy will make matches alot more hectic to say the least. :lol:

I can see the looks of my friends' faces when suddenly the screen starts scrolling and they have no idea what just happened. >_>

Woah!! The tether recovery is in this game! I wish it was in SSBM, it would have been so awesome!!!



...Wait a second, it was. :unsure:

Yeah...But it wasn't very effective...And now, apparently, it is.

*drools* This game looks so awesome! I can't wait. 'Cept I don't have a Wii... T_T... maybe I will when it comes out, who knows.

we're going to have to get some sort of tournament set up when this gets out. a little thing like college isn't going to get in the way of my gaming...*gulp*

This might just be a hunch, but I don't think Sakurai will unveil every character in the game, only those you can start off with. That way, we'll still be anxious for what other characters there might be in the game.

I hope you're right Esgal. And I'm hoping for some other nifty assist trophies, like the Devil assist trophy. That's just awesome-age. I Lol'd when I saw that, XD.

He won't give away everything. If you look back at SSB, you had like, 8 starting characters and 4 you could earn. Half the people had no idea what those 4 secret ones were... 'cept jigglypuff, that one was easy. Then SSBB, the unvieled maybe 10 before the game came out, and then you had way over that in the end. So, maybe multiply whatever he shows by 3 and you'll get a rough estimate of character numbers... if you base it off Melee.

If its wi fi enabled I'll be excited to face you all in brawl, get some matches set up for the people on FEW. The game is goin to own from the looks of it. B)

Hee. Diddy Kong is new now.

OMG DIDDY KONG. :X

I dont really care for diddy kong myself, I am interested to see what the story line will be like, considering the other two games didnt even have a story.

It's kinda lame just looking at screenshots. You really need a movie to explain some of the characters.

If Diddy works as a faster somewhat less powerful version of Donkey then he might be worth playing. Would still be powerful but would be able to evade and attack more rapidly.

I'll just add my "Sw33t to the L33t!"

I've already reserved it. :D

Yup. Same here. :D

ohh... 20 page Q&A...

Wi-Fi seems possible...
