Pre-order Super Smash Bros. Brawl for WiiOn Thursday, January 31st, in Japan the Wii fighting game Super Smash Bros. Brawl will be released. There will be millions of fans trying to get their hands on the game early, so it’s no surprise now that Japanese stores are receiving their orders for the game from Nintendo, that the game’s street date is broken.

As a result we can now confirm 1 newcomer and 7 veteran Super Smash Bros. characters for Brawl to you! Here are the new characters:

Luigi (from the Mario series)

Ganondorf (from The Legend of Zelda series)

    The reason why i thought the pictures of these characters were fake was because i didn’t see these characters confirmed on the official website of SSBB. :???:

    Hey everyone I too am hoping this isn’t all the characters. The Japanese have only had this game for a day or two now and somehow i just doubt they could acquire all the characters. Do they not have to play 500 hours of the game to get a character like in melee? Maybe not, Maybe so, I’m jsut hoping. Oh and the characters on the screen are grouped together, but the japanese read top to bottom, look at it that way and it makes sense. Why is wolf a copy character, they said no copy character. And WHY DOESN’T GANONDORF HAVE A SWORD!!! For all the delays they haven’t listened to the voice of the people much have they. Bring on MEGAMAN!!!! and screw ROBOT.

    I have to also say that I thought Nintendo promised 3 characters that were not part of the nintendo franchise. Snake, Sonic and ???? Lets just screw with us. I would hope you can download more characters over time, but knowing nintendo’s inability to dominate the internet market, I doubt it. I’m very happy with what we can get, but come on. There are so many other characters we wanted to see. Why give us clones when we obviously hated them. Why give us a million mario, Zelda, Pokemon and starfox characters and only one f zero character. They have been working on this game for years and delayed it non stop. FOR WHAT!!! StarWolf? thats silly. crossing my fingers knowing it will do me no good. Nintendo is beginning to disappoint me more and more with their inability to listen, their constant delays, the hype they instill(only to fall on your face), did I say delays and obvious other downfalls because their system can’t handle it. Where is a character editor? Games had custom color and character editors since nintendo 64 and playstation 1 ? don’t tell me you couldn’t do it. Where are the miis (nintendo’s new trademark) ? where are the good pokemon? (jigglypuff is terrible, stupid and cheap. come on give me back mewtwo) How come I’ve been waiting for this game for over 4 years and it still seems like melee with a few extra characters. Bring on Megaman, Richter Belmont, and Ridley (as a playable character). Make me collect pokemon so i can use more than the three with pokemon trainer. Surprise me with something original, not just rehashes of failing game lines.Where are the skins that EVERYBODY WANTED!!! Where the F*CK is Ganondorf’s sword. That is the most disappointing because it was the number one complaint of many in melee. Nintendo has made some bad decisions and wasted a lot of time. Are we going to have to wait another 8 years until the next one. Or will nintendo die first. hmmmm. sorry to rant. I’m still excited about the 2p modes and the story mode. NINTENDO just needs to listen more and meet the demands of the gamer and then, idk, GIVE US MORE! BLOW Our minds. I’ve excused the delays because I thought they would. Now I have to wait while the japanese get to experience it all and ruin it for us. Even the Dojo is corrupted. sad sad day.
