Posted July 11, 2007 Have you seen that schedule? The end of year is crowded as is, we need something to look forward to in the new year! Yeah but not Smash bros... This is my very very most anticipated game of the moment. I was hoping for a nearly worlwide release but we'll have all the unlockables spoiled when the game will come out. If only they didn't made those daily updates... Mario Galaxy should have been released in 2008. I will play Metroid Prime 3 ( 2 f***ing months after the US) again and again to compensate.

Posted July 11, 2007 Sorry to say the stuff from the press-site is rubbish. I think they're screens that have been used on the official site Rubbish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2007 Hopefully we'll get a new trailer for this soon, revealing a new character that we all know is going to be in it for 99,9999999% certain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2007 You know someone I know brought up a scary point. Reggie made a list of games that are online, specifically focusing on the online functionality of those games...even announcing Mario Kart as a brand new example of an online game.... ...but Smash Brothers wasn't in the list. Not even a hint that it'd be online. I know everyone's assuming that it HAS to be online but it's never once been flat out confirmed and I think at the start Sakurai said he'd try to but wasn't sure if he could get it to work right. What if it just turned out that he couldn't manage a stable online experience and so they scrapped the idea? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What if it just turned out that he couldn't manage a stable online experience and so they scrapped the idea? I sort of thought about it, but at the same time, Nintendo are keen to completely remove focus from Smash Bro's. Aside from the release date they've not mentioned it once at E3 and haven't got a playable version in the Nintendo booth. Metroid and Mario both come out first, and I think Nintendo want people hyped on them games before getting people excited about Smash Bros. It does leave me wondering though, Nintendo really haven't said anything about Smash Bro's in a year so I wouldn't worry yet. I honestly think Nintendo just don't want the media to be hyping up and focusing on Smash Bros... yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2007 Sorry if this has been posted already, just up from daily dosage of sleep, and just caught up on what happened with the Sony conference, but i'll just post it here anyway seeing just in case it hasn't been posted yet as it could indirectly tie in with this game... http://e3.gamespot.com/live.html?tag=event_nav;live Click on the Thursday tab. Nintendo has another mini talk of sometime it looks like. Am I right? Remember last year when we got to to see the awesomeness of Smash Bros for the first the time (the trailer) on that seperate date? Probably we'll have a similar thing happen this year and possibly fill in some gaps of curiosity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2007 No Smash for us this year. How sad. The US is getting all of those big 3, along with BWII, FE and stuff. Isnt that even more crowded than our schedule? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 People are saying you can see Bowser Jr. using the cloaking device too, in the Bridge of Eldin section of the video. No idea if it's Bowser Jr...it's definitely something odd... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 Sorry to say the stuff from the press-site is rubbish. I think they're screens that have been used on the official site Rubbish What else did you expect? I doubt they would release new information through the press right when E3 is going on. It was probably just to bring some press up to speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 Donkey Kong confirmed. 15 sec video on site. Notices section open... No idea if it's Bowser Jr...it's definitely something odd... Its just one King Bulbins minions, not a playable character... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'll just show WiiFit again I like Donkey Kong's new look, and the trailer is nice, wish it was longer though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 Site updated! This is Sakurai. I can now say that the North American launch date for Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been decided. It is... December 3rd, 2007 I am working with all my might, so please wait just a little longer! Oh, I've also prepared a short movie that lets you see a little of the game. It's short, but I hope you'll enjoy it. Short Movie Donkey Kong It’s Donkey Kong, ruler of the jungle. The original giant powerhouse makes a triumphant return! Looks like his giant punch is still the haymaker you remember. Don’t doubt his strength or you’ll end up with the ultimate headache! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 12, 2007 Nintendos having an extra developer roundtable on Thursday. We will possibly know once and for all on that date. I am going to say, there will be no online... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 i think there will be online but not as good as we hoped for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I remember well, Sakurai said they'll try but not implemented it if it's laggy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 Sorry guys but I have to disagree. DK looks pretty half done. We had better fur in either of the Starfox GCN games. This, on the other hand, is a texture that I think has been generated using captures of rendered fur (kinda like how they did Donkey Kong Country strangely..) From some angles the fur looks good but a lot of the time it looks rubbish. Nice try but for a company like Nintendo, that just isn't good enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 ...but Smash Brothers wasn't in the list. Not even a hint that it'd be online. IIRC, BWii and Forever Blue were not on the list, either. And we know that both are online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 This roundtable coming up may just fill in some of these gaps. Otherwise TGS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2007 I guess I'm the only one who preferred the melee design of Donkey Kong . Anyway, the teaser is good and left us all wanting more (just as the previous trailers ) Too bad the game won't come out here until 2008, but that was to be expected.
