Super Smash Bros Brawl creators hint at Sonic as the next Wii fighter

Update: It’s now official, Sonic the Hedgehog IS in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

According to Smash Bros. series director Masahiro Sakurai, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima had personally asked to have Snake included in the previous game, Super Smash Bros. Melee on GameCube, but the project was already too close to completion when the request was made. Nintendo hopes that Snake’s appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on Wii will encourage other publishers to allow their characters to join the Smash Bros. line-up, and is already actively negotiating for the rights to include at least one or two other non-Nintendo character. You can add one and one together when…

Both Masahiro Sakurai and Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto have stated that Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog is the character that Smash Bros. fans have requested the most!

The game’s design team is made up of all-stars: Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu has composed the Super Smash Bros. Brawl main title theme, and Solid Snake creator Hideo Kojima will be designing a level in the game, most likely Metal Gear Solid. Here’s the trailer showing the new Nintendo and first non-Nintendo character in SSBB:
Who do you want to see appear in the game? Bomberman, MegaMan, Simon Belmont, Pac-Man or who else?

In October 2007 the first gameplay video of Sonic and Super Sonic was shown in a battle against Link!

sora`s move list would probably be something:

press 2-Slash
press 2+left or right-Long slash
press 2+up-Slash up
press 2+down-Counter attack
press 1+up-Cast thunder
press 1+left or right-Strike raid(throws keyblade
press 1+down-cast fire that blast all targets in range.
Final Smash-Trinity Limit(center of screen shines with light and all targets go flying)
Anyways that would be my thought if this character would be on brawl for wii.

I think the following characters in the SSBB should be…..

1. Luigi

2. shadow

3. tails

4. lucario

5. Pokemon trainer ( hoenn )

6. rayman

7. bowser jnr

8. your own mii

9. king boo

10. falco

11. birdo

and laura croft ( tomb raider )

the most unlikely characters i would want in the game

12. homer simpson

13. Wallace and gromit

14.master chief from halo

15. spongebob

16. shoop de whoop

17. Chris Crocker ( leave Britney alone )

The rumor about Ness JP and Rucario spread like wild fire. I, personally don’t believe information from unofficial sources. Oh just noticed that whoever posted the video with “proof” that these three were in brawl said that the update was on Jan 20th when there was no update on that day, for it was a sunday.

Lucario might be a secret character, but nintendo should know not to show any because it is secret so gonna have to find out yourself on who they are. Naruto is not a bad choice but he is actually more of a naruto show character then game character. Wolf(starfox), Sora, Koopakid, Krystal, Ray-man, Bomber-man, Mega-man, and Skull-kid would work perfect in the game.

These characters are both heros and rivals of characters. Ganondorf has a intense blade so i understand he cant be in it because of the strength and new powers he has. Sora may not be a nintendo character but, look to him as link, he has the exact style as final fantasy characters and to have this character in i think its fantastic.

Should we be giving out our wii numbers so we can talk to each other about when to a battle and such.

not only are these characters the most likely, but they are also awesome, megaman, crash bandicoot, ray-man, bomberman,wolf and BORG, the info actually did come from an official source, it was a video from wii.com and it was a video based on the interview info on stickers between Iwata and Sakurai, but was the wrong one i guess
