*To find your Wii number, go to the bottom right envelope-icon, click “wii message board” then bottom left click “create message” then click “address book” and then register each other. Since each Wii game gets its own additional online code, after that you can exchange Brawl friend codes to start fighting each other online! … Please note that some people already gave their “(Brawl code)” above, so you can enter theirs in the game directly. — If you have any questions about this or the game, leave a comment below and someone will answer.
mr. game and watch is a legend, and anyone who says different can believe what they want, but in the end, THEY ARE WRONG…. so sorry mr. game & watch haters, but he IS returning… they couldn’t take any out, and no offense to alex, but giving each character a new moveset isnt that hard; they managed it for SSBM, and young link, ice climbers, and hopefully sonic WILL be in brawl…how could they not?
wut does clone characters mean????????
characters with the same moves as another character.
and the game cover in your signature is fake.
You can also play as Giga Bowser from SSBM……but only for a short period of time, as it is a final smash.
Who the heck is Mr. Wright???
he is from simcity on the snes. he is an assist trophy in brawl.
I would love to see characters such as sonic and mega-man (but he would a partial clone to the original Samus)
I think they should bring back all the characters(clones too even if they have the same move sets as before) plus the new ones because all of the characters were cool no matter what you say
Especially Falco
if they dont bring all the old chars ima be so mad and crazy i can eat a nintendo employee
