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!

there is alot of things exciting lucario for instance,the subspace emissary videos and pics are cool, i didnt expect ridley to be a playable character he is much too big and just wouldnt fit into fast pace fighting the way smash bros is, thats why mewtwo is being replaced, too floaty, all ridley would be able to do is glide, no cool moveset

Hmm… you guys dont know yet? They already gave out the final roster… let me tell you who is in. And this ‘is’ real. You can look at youtube and in other webpages if you google SSBB Leak.

Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, Marth, Mr. Game and Watch, Luigi, Diddy Kong, Zelda/Sheik, Pit, Meta Knight, Falco, Pokemon Trainer, Ike, Snake, Peach, Yoshi, Ganandorf, Ice Climbers, King DDD, Wolf(Star Fox series), Lucario(Mewtwo’s replacement), Ness, Sonic, Bowser, Wario, Toon Link (Wind Waker), Robot(I have no idea where he came from), Captain Olimar, Captain Falcon,
Jigglypuff, and Ness….

I’m pretty dissapointed with Sakurai… I at least expected Megaman… Dont know… but Maybe the American version will have him since they we are getting it on March 9. But dont get your hopes up. They are probably just translating everything to English. In other words Dubbing… I dont know who said Naruto was going to be in for Brawl… but let me have a laugh… Sakurai especifically said that he wasnt putting any character who were involved in a huge Manga project… and looking at Naruto’s history… I though his chances were at… .-9999999 percent…hahahaha.

Naruto (NARUTO - ??? -, Naruto?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Masashi Kishimoto with an anime adaptation.

this is DIRECTLY from wikipedia Japenese MANGA series wanna know what a manga is?

Manga (??, Manga?) listen (help·info) is
the Japanese word for comics

COMICS

HE IS AN OFFICIAL MANGA CHARACTER
HE IS AN ANIME CHARACTER
BUT HE WILL NOT GET IN BRAWL!!!!!
Naruto Would Be Awesome With 50 or so jitstus a few punchs and kick A WHOLE MOVE SET BUT NOOOOOO!!!
NARUTO WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER BE IN BRAWL THATS FINAL!!

Sakurai Stated Himself That no Official Manga Characters can be in the game
and they have to originate in a game

Now Shadowfan Sorry I blasted that at you
but you had to be screamed at.. so please stop They had the same select screen in every country in both previous games so
com down no naruto will be in brawl sorry
now i know that tails isn’t in brawl and i’m
sad but i still think the game will be freakin awesome! Robot had me but I might own
everyone i touch with him because “you can’t judge a book by its cover”

NOT ORIGINATE IN A GAME!!!
