Snake's more realistic weaponry [silly, yes, but possible] and Zero Suit Samus' gratuitous fanservice may also contribute to the rating.

That is a pretty rad stage. I wish I could say more but I'll leave it at that.

The Pictochat stage is not, in fact, constructed from stylus-drawn lines and crude shapes.

The Pictochat stage, dear friends, is constructed from 200-proof WIN.

Yes, indeed the Pictochat stage is awesome. Wonder if there will be a Brain Age stage as well?

I think they should have made it so a fifth person could hook up the DS to the system and actually draw what would be on the stage, but even if they don't this stage looks incredibly fun. And even though i don't really take a liking to either Kong the new movie looks pretty cool.

They should have had Diddy Kong take out a horde of Bowser's lackeys with Gun-Kata.

Man, that would've already added on to what was a truly awesome cinematic sequence......You just get goosebumps watching it........I'm starting to wonder if they might make an anime series based on the game.......Or BETTER YET: A Final Fantasy: AVC style movie......That would be SOOOO Awesome!!!:rock:

Lets not forget video recording! Hopefully this will mean an end to low quality youtube videos. You know, the ones where the designated match videographer can't hold the camera steady.

Don't forget the annoyingly loud English-skill-deficient "smack talk" that interrupts the action, poor lighting, bad shooting angles, etc.

I knew King Dedede would be in it :D It's good to see him! I bet he's fun to play as.... smacking things with that big hammer.

YES! Totally freaking awesome!

The question is, though...if Dedede uses a hammer for his special attack, and Kirby absorbs that power...does that mean they're getting rid of Kirby's hammer move? Otherwise it'd be pretty much useless to absorb Dedede's power...

Well, notice that the site says that Dedede mechanized his mallet. That means it obviously does more than lay down some smack. Perhaps his neutral special is different from Kirby's horizontal special? If anything, it would give Kirby a sort of hammer combo. EDIT: I didn't see the screenshot where Kirby had a Dedede hat on. So much for my other theory.

How many characters will Brawl have? We now have 23, and we haven't even covered all the veteran fighters yet. Melee had 25 not counting Sheek.

*hopes for 35 characters at least*

I'm not sure who it was, but I remember David telling me someone who worked on the game said there would be no more that 50.

Mm, I'll faint when Wind Waker Link and the Ouendan make an appearance. Only then will Smash surpass Melee.

I wonder if they'd alter them to be the Elite Beat Agents for the US release. Either would be fine with me . . . especially watching Snake use them, because the character should scream "Ouendan!" or "Help!" [depending on version] in order to summon them. Muahaha.

I'm fine with either, although the Japan-only authenticity would be sweet.
