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)

    Actually R.O.B is a pretty good character and i would say that lucario is better than mewtwo. The pokemon trainers pokemon blow pichu out of the water(charizard is ok, not my favourite), I personnally think King Dedede sucks so much ass, Metaknight is frikkin awesome(so is Pitt and the new Falco) but I have yet to play as wolf(seeing as we can’t find out a way to unlock him because of our illiteracy in japanese) but I would say that its much better than the first one.

    Oh, and the advnture mode, its as fun if not funner than brawling with your friends :mrgreen:

    Well, character wise, I am sure everyone is VERY disapointed, we made such a massive leap (character wise) from the original smash to melee, I guess we just set our standerds to high. But seriosly, how hard would’ve it had been to make a final smash for Roy, Pichu, Dr. Mario, and Mewtwo? I told everyone whom I discussed this with prevoius to our current info that they should not have worried, Nintendo will keep all their prevoius character, we have nothing to worry about. Well I was wrong. They sure added a lot of pointless stuff like, stickers, and trophies, (which are pointless to the game accept some power ups and decorations?!) I would’ve wanted more characters, and less boards and modes. >.> -Jesse

    What’s so great about this game anyway? I want all of you to intrigue me to play this game in 20 words or less. If you can’t or refuse, than I prove my point and this game sucks, but if you can, I might consider it. :neutral:

  • Sharpedo43

    Crap! :mad: today i don’t care if the game is on sale next month because my baby brother broke my TV! :mad: :evil:
    Now i have to make more money to get a least a cheaper one so i can have leftover money because i still didn’t get my Nintendo Wii! :mad:

  • Animelover13

    Sorry to hear that; a severe beating should teach him a lesson. :twisted:

  • Jesse Staab

    Haha, if your not interested in the game, stop complaining and leave it be. Its the best party fighting game in the history of existance. That’s all that must be said.

  • Sharpedo43

    Yeah i should also get myself a lock :mad:

  • Sharpedo43

    And Jesse Staab if your talking to me then your retarted :???: i wanted SSBB to come earlier but i didn’t expect my baby brother to brake my TV. :sad: :mad: Plus when i tell my baby brother not to do something he is pretty defying and doesn’t listen to moi. :mad:

  • croier-zman

    Oh well if yo don’t get everything you want in life. Quit your whinnying. Put a cork in it and wait until march 10( new release date) Your not the only one who has no SSBB. I want it too but you also have to wait. I realy don’t care if R.O.B is in brawl.
    Questions like…
    Poor mega man, He is a kid with a canon. Thats newbish.

    ROB sucks, No he does not, cause he looks cool and battles as well as anyone.

    Why no Pichu, Pichu is weaker then picachu and hurts his freakin self when he attacks.

    There are to many clones, only ganon is a clone. everyone has at least a few moves where they do something different.

    My brother broke my TV set, Oh well…

    Why can’t we have it earlier, Becasue in Japan they started before us and the US wants to have something not just a copy translated.

    I hate this, Me too.

    Have anymore questions that can be ansered in a few words :?:

    Oh well and have a nice day.
