For the past week Super Smash Bros fans were excited about the possibilities of a new Brawl character being unveiled as the Smash Bros Dojo homepage counted down. To be honest I got carried away with what new character could show up next as well, so I was disappointed to find out no new characters were announced. Yesterday I didn’t even post the news, but I realized that what was announced still has a big impact on the gameplay itself. The music.

Besides, those new characters will no doubt come soon as “daily weekday updates” are promised by the game’s creator Masahiro Sakurai.

A huge list of song composers was revealed. To quote: “To have so many of these individuals providing music for a single project may very well be an historic event in the history of video game music! It’s almost unthinkable! Smash will let you enjoy music from a wide variety of Nintendo games. A number of individuals have put their touch on these arrangements.”
