Solid Snake? WTF? That's just some crazy stuff there... Why Solid Snake?


/me shrugs and walks away

[BlueFire]

LOL! I love this! Oh man, I think I was just sold for a Wii. They have to add more out of place characters! Please, oh please, there HAS to be more! :]

Okay, maybe I'm overly excited about this, but I LOVE Smash Bros.

[BreakABone]

Best yet

It forgoes the Wiimote and uses the Cube controller.

And of course, it is online. :D

[Ginkasa]

It doesn't use the Wii controller? Then what's the point...? I mean, why use the GCN controller? Why not use the "shell" controller, or whatever?

Would you rather buy 4 brand new controllers.

Or use 4 controllers most people who play Smash Bros probably already have?

And quite frankly, I'm assuming the director could make the game around it.

Lazy developers FTL :p


~Edit~

Spoke too soon..

"Under the direction of series creator Masahiro Sakurai, Super Smash Bros. Brawl will feature two control modes: motion-controlled and classic, GameCube-style combat. That means players who prefer to play the game with the traditional control setup can do so using the GameCube controller they're already accustomed to while the new motion control adds a new dimension previously not available in fighting games."

[Dylflon]

HAAAAHAHAHA!!

SOLID SNAKE!

GOLD!!!

Oh man...maybe I'll have to get a Wii for Smash Bros.

<3

I predicted Pit, Wario, and Meta-Knight the other day actually.

I'm also expecting Waluigi and Diddy Kong and maybe King K. Rool, Dedede, and Banjo-Kazooie.

Any other predictions?

Edit: Maybe Conker too?

Hi-res screens
Looks awesome.

[BlueFire]

And just the fact that this game will be online..




...Good Lord.


:D

[Swan]

Wow....I am so happy right now...it hurts.

I am being completely honest about this.



I love the fact that Snake can use his box. I want more hardcore characters like him :p

[Lucid Faia]

I passed after I reading about the game. But I've finally regained consciousness.

Trailer!

[Jonbo298]

*creams mucho enough*. Hopefully this is the first MEGATON title of 2007 :p

[DarkMaster]

How in the mother **** can they possibly justify not showing this at their conference? Man oh man, come on Nintendo, I would've stood up in my seat and clapped at the sight of this.

[Dyne]

Oh my good ****ing god, OH MY GOD

OH MY ****ING GOD

OH MY ****ING GOD

edit: after about a ten minute orgasm, I'm trying to just PLACE this on a scale of 1 to ****ing awesome, and it doesn't even register. Oh my god.

Nintendo is ****ing brilliant.

[Crash]

OMFG... amazing nintendo... amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The main theme was created for us by none other than famed Final Fantasy composer, Nobuo Uematsu!

"It'sa me, Rape-io!"

[GameMaster]

OMFG! Cancel E3. Just end it now!

The next generation console war is already over. In what quite possibly may be the most clever attack ever, Nintendo has just dominated, demolished, raped, and given a tidal-wave spanking to both Sony and Microsoft. Following the unexpected announcement, gamers around the world cried out in rejoice as Nintendo unveiled the newest iteration of the most successful game series ever, Super Smash Bros. The new title, Super Smash Bros: Brawl is expected to slash to pieces both Sony and Microsoft's next generation E3 announcements.

After the announcement was made, a poll was conducted asking gamers what excited them most about Microsoft and Sony's presentations at E3. 97% chose the option, "Who the f---ing hell gives a rat's ass about their worthless sh-t. All I care about is Wii and Super Smash Bros.: Brawl."

Neither Sony nor Microsoft representatives were willing to comment following the Earth-shattering news.

OMFG! Game of the Year. Everyone will buy a Wii. The system and game will be sold out for months. Pre-orders are probably already gone. I will kill for this game.

I just excreted all over myself, the chair, and my floor. Now I'm convulsing and screaming in my excrement. OMFG!

[Canyarion]

Awesome. :D
Did anyone mention the official site? http://www.smashbros.com/en/main.html

But guys, please watch your language. Last time I checked, raping was illegal. And I absolutely hate 'omfg', especially when it's fully typed out. It's religiously offensive.

[Bube]

Do the Wii controllers have cables? If not, then imagine 4 wireless controllers versus 4 GC controllers.. 8 player Smash Bros... mmm...smash bros..

[Teuthida]

Er, this really bothers me. Great and all. But it's like with the DS. Most of Nintendo's games don't even use the touch screen function well. Seems stupid IMO. And like with cube how they made the A button extra big to be the focus, but how many games used it that way? This is the one thing that makes me worry about Wii and it's future.

[Canyarion]

But in the meanwhile more 3rd party games start to use the touch screen more. EA said something like that I think.

And as long as the DS is doing great, I don't see a problem. Though the Wiimote doesn't have any 'normal' functions like the DS has...

[fingersman]

LOL I love your sig Teuthida.

Neways I think this is great news, I loved the trailer and the new characters looked cool.

I'm also glad that it's not going to be a launch title, that would be an over kill imo.

Oh yeah I think I read somewhere that you can either use the wiimote or the controller. Either way this is good news

[Teuthida]

Thanks.

I could watch that all day.

[Canyarion]

I already love this game. :D

[Dark Samurai]

I yelled... loud... at the trailer... loving it... Metaknight, and Pit look badass, Zero Suit Samus looks ok... is her weapon a sword or a whip? I know it doubles as a gun, but I cant tell on the secondary. I wish Wario wasnt in there...

[Swan]

GM....you took it to far.



Way too far

[Fox 6]

Wow, very impresive. That actually makes me think about purchasing a Wii.


Time will only tell.

[MuGen]

So now we know, the most extreme Nintendo fans are the ones who would excrete, cream, and vomit all over themselves willingly to display excitement....thanks Nintendo.. thanks a lot. Our world is much better now. :P

[Canyarion]

Ehm no, that's just GameMaster.

Pure gold.

[Canyarion]

Haha that is great. :D Did you make that Danny?

[Teuthida]

Nah, can't take credit for that one.

[Ginkasa]

I haven't actually played the game, so excuse me for possible ignorance, but isn't the MGS4 Snake not actually Snake? Isn't it Big Boss, or does he have a Snake codename, too?


/me shrugs and walks away

[Canyarion]

Spoilers? :)

I think that was MGS3, but I could be wrong.

MGS3 Snake is Big Boss. MGS4 is Solid Snake. And no, those aren't spoilers.

Take that Mario

[Teuthida]

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=72642&page=1&pp=15

New news from the offical JP boards on the SSBB site. It's been translated by a few peeps. Though some of the Japanese is a bit vague, this is the conclusion people have reached about what has been said:

-Many characters will have their movesets remade
-Not all characters will return
-Game tempo will change
-Aerial game will be expanded

I, like most of the people on smashboards, are thinking clones will likely be removed or merged while more original characters will be safe. If folks like Pichu go I don't think many will complain.

/me prays for twin katana Ganondorf.

[Fox 6]

They better not touch Roy, or there will be blood to pay.

[DarkMaster]

I hope Link has a Wind Waker costume. And a Wind Waker style Ganondorf is definitely necessary.

[GameMaster]

-Not all characters will return

Bad choice. There should always be more characters but never the removal of previous fighters.

As for move sets being remade. Good! Shiek is overpowered and cheap. Mewtwo needs some stronger moves.

[BlueFire]

They better not touch Roy, or there will be blood to pay.
Agreed.

[Canyarion]

Come on, who actually liked Dr. Mario? He was Mario/Luigi all over again. They could of course give Mario some of Dr. Mario's attacks.

[Dylflon]

Excuse me, but in the original smash bros Luigi and Mario weren't exactly the same. It was Luigi's superior jumping that lead me to choose him in the first SSB.

[Canyarion]

I know, but the difference was just too small imo. Sure, having 2 'versions' of a fighter is fun, a lot of games have that. But I can understand they're cutting back on some. But Dr. Mario is the only one I really won't miss.

[BreakABone]

Actually Luigi was a bit different than Mario in Melee especially when they had one attack different which really changes stuff around.

[Teuthida]

In the E3 trailer and announcement of Super Smash Bros Brawl, after the Nintendo character Wario is introduced, an explosion is set off. From a distance, the shot then shows what looks very similiar to an atomic blast. "In a tragedy that killed over 200,000 people, this is not what Id like to call quality family entertainment," said Miyosho Kazuwaski, President of the Atomic Rememberence Committee. Nintendo has yet to comment.

[DarkMaster]

And just when I thought people couldn't get any more idiotic, someone compares the tradegy of Horishima and Nagasaki to an explosive fart. Bra-f*cking-vo Atomic Rememberence Committee.

[GameMaster]

Anything for a little attention! This really steams my broccoli! :mad:

[BlueFire]

Where did you find that..? O.o

[Canyarion]

Danny always has the latest news..... :confused:

As opinion-based as this gets, I don't consider Hiroshima and Nagasaki a tragedy. Not in WW2. We even warned them. It was their own fault.

Chernobyl was a tragedy. Unleashing the a-bomb, although a long term problem, resolved WW2.


People get offended way too easily though. I remember reading a list of songs and things that "should be banned" after 9/11. They even wanted to change the name of The Two Towers. Because...you know...tolkien named his novel that to offend the victims of 9/11... back in 1954.

[Fox 6]

Well except for the fact that they really didnt give Japan time to surrender after the first dropping. I mean 3 days between droppings was definately not enough time. Nobody knew what happened to hiroshima after the Enola Gay dropped Fat man (the bomb) on the city because practicly every communication line was gone, so many died and no one could get word out.


I somewhat agree to the first dropping, becuase the U.S. saw what that the Japanese would fight to the death and they wanted to spare thier soldiers lives, and yes the allies warned Japan at the Potsdam conference, saying we posses a weapon that will utterly anhiliate you, but remember that no one had seen a weapon that was that destructive and most of it was played off as propoganda.

There has even been speculation that Japan would have surrendered on its own since it's German ally was defeated and that the Soviet Union declared war on Japan as negotiated at (Yalta? Casablaca?) conference.

but this is opinion biased, and not trying to stir up an arguement, just my 2 cents.

[KillerGremlin]

Yeah, no one really knew exactly how bad the bomb would be.

I would consider it a tragedy for all of the civilian lives that were lost. I understand your view point, but would you just blow it off and say its our fault if somebody nuked us?


/me shrugs and walks away

[KillerGremlin]

Yes.

If your government decides to go on a crusade in an attempt to take over half the world, and you honestly don't expect any retaliation...the Japanese joined up with the Germans, who in case you didn’t know, killed millions of Jews. I realize this wasn’t public knowledge till after the war. But, in my defense to that exact argument, which you may or may not use against me, I present you this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_731

It’ll blow your mind. This also wasn't public knowledge, but it goes to show that there was bad blood on a lot of people's hands.


in a time of war, to say they had it coming, was an understatement


A government is a representation of the people, or control of the people. I'm sure there were a few people that didn't support what the government was doing at the time, but you have to wonder how many there were. And, the main differences is that we warned them. It was't like 9/11 (which was only surprising in the way it was executed, because you and I know people hate America) because it wasn't a blind act without warning. We said, "hey Japan, we have this bomb that kills tons of people, surrender, or we unleash it on you." And they rolled their eyes. If anything is a tragedy, it was bomb 2 like Fox said. They were using their massive population to launch suicide attacks on our troops, is how dispensable their population was at the time. Kamikazes, such a bold form of warfare.

[Dylflon]

We're forgetting what's really important here, guys.

Solid Snake is in Smash Bros!

[KillerGremlin]

It's gonna be cool, Snake is the man.

[Fox 6]

Are there actaully going to be special power attacks? What would snakes be?

[GameMaster]

What if Lord Bowser's ultra-mega attack is rain of fire!
