Posted January 24, 2008 Actually, his Up air looked a lot like Sheik's, not Falcon or GanonDorf He flips all the way around though doesn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 24, 2008 He flips all the way around though doesn't he? In his air moves? Yeah, he does. A lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 24, 2008 Would 44 characters be enough for you? If this was the final roster I can still see people moaning! lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 24, 2008 That figure would tie in with previous reports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 25, 2008 A little insight someone pointed out for me: First look at this sticker power-up image: The blank space means that anyone can use it. Other stickers has specific characters on (usually from the same franchise). There's one picture with an Animal Crossing sticker on, conveniently zoomed in... Look where the icons should be....there's a letter "U". Possibly for "Unknown". Would point towards an Animal Crossing Character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 25, 2008 Animal Crossing Villager (Main character boy or girl) NOT unlocked hence Unknown a certainty... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 25, 2008 Volume 4 is up now (these are great) http://us.wii.com/iwata_asks/ssbb/vol4_page1.jsp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 25, 2008 Five. Easy, Normal, Hard, Very Hard and Intense. Intense, however, was made mostly for the curious, and Very Hard can be considered the highest level of play for standard playing purposes. By the way, the level of difficulty can also be adjusted for other modes of play and not just for The Subspace Emissary. Haha. That section made me laugh. I bet there is still something for beating it though, sticker or music CD. Not sure if interview stuff should be spoilerised..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 25, 2008 Werent most of these games free when you unlocked them in Animal Crossing on the GameCube? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 25, 2008 Werent most of these games free when you unlocked them in Animal Crossing on the GameCube? Yep, those were the days before Nintendo realised how much money they could make by actually selling retro games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 25, 2008 Masterpieces Well, what do we have here...? Yes, that’s Super Mario Bros. Several memorable characters compete for brawl supremacy – that’s Super Smash Bros. Brawl in a nutshell. But what about the past fights for each of those characters? What were they like? It may sound impossible, but you can experience those battles in Brawl as well! That’s right, for the first time ever, you can play trial versions of these games by the miracle of Virtual Console! That’s what Masterpieces is! Here you can relive the greatest battles of the biggest star characters through demo versions of their games. Here are some of the titles you can expect to see available in Brawl. Crazy, isn’t it?! Ice Climber (1986, NES) Super Mario Bros. (1987, NES) The Legend of Zelda (1987, NES) Kid Icarus (1987, NES) Kirby’s Adventure (1993, NES) Super Metroid (1994,Super NES) Lylat Wars (1997, Nintendo 64) Whoaaa. Makes my head spin just seeing all those. You won’t need to be connected to Nintendo WFC to play these games. Just remember, there are some NES classics in there as demos, so expect some of the time limits on those games to be so short that all you can do is laugh at how hard they are. I’m almost...at the top! Ahaha! Oh man, out of time already?! That’s what a good demo is all about. It gives you just enough to let you appreciate the game. Plus it’s a lot of fun to see just how far you can go before the little time that you have runs out. If you take a liking to one of the trial versions, you can always buy the full game through the Shop Channel! You might even find a couple of titles that divert your attention from Brawl for a while. Some titles come with save data. But hmm, it seems there are still titles hiding in the Masterpieces section. Titles?! What games don’t I know about?! That discovery is part of the fun, isn’t it? Masterpieces are called masterpieces for a good reason, and each of the well-loved characters here come from a past that is worthy of that title. To end, I’d like to take this opportunity to send my thanks to all the game creators and affiliated parties who helped in making this possible. [/Quote] Pretty cool update, too bad these are just trials. Europe could get to play Earthbound, finally. :p Edit: After looking around it seems that Earthbound is only on the Japanese page together with Fire Emblem. A little insight someone pointed out for me: Could also be usable by. But I agree they could be hiding an Animal Crossing character there. A lot of people have been countering this by saying an Animal Crossing character couldn't use magic, but who knows what they've thought up. I'm loving the Iwata Asks interview, they really give you much insight about the development of this game. The bit about Shogo Sakai is pretty funny as well.

Posted January 25, 2008 Absolutely perfect what Sakurais done here. Exactly what Nintendo should've been doing with Wii Shop in the first place, instead of being in a full retail software, having time limited playable demos in the Wii Shop to give a more accurate idea of a game instead of just tiny screenshots and a slab of text...

Posted January 25, 2008 Perhaps one of the most unexpected features of Brawl and amazing too! Though is he hinting at a new VC game we have never played before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 25, 2008 Oh godddd! That video is great. Slick online play. And those demos are genious...But why don't Nintendo just incorporate this into their VC area? So Brawl is the key to playing demos of VC games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
