Brawl Menu

After all the spoilers we have been seeing lately, today’s update wasn’t much of a shocker.  We got the character selection screen.  Not only that but he shows us the stage selection screen too.  Here’s what we got:

 

 

*SPOILER* Tons of New Pics

New pics for Supspace.  I’m in a hurry so I can’t discribe them but you guys can handle that.

Rumors Finally Confirmed

The mysterious acrobat known as Sheik is finally confirmed.  Rumours have been going around from almost six months ago that she would return in Brawl and Sakurai finally decided to stop teasing us and show us what she looks like.  Unlike most character introduction update we also got her move-set.  Maybe this isn’t the rumor that is true and we will see Ganandorf in the near future.

Pikmin Sprout Thier Way Into Brawl

It’s been over two months since we have all seen a new playable character and just as we all thought we wouldn’t see anymore until Brawl came out we get this monster of an update.  Captain Olimar IS a playable character in Brawl.  No one doubted Olimar’s inclusion in Brawl due to his appearance on the polls Sakurai had Brawl fans fill out but it appears he will not be an assist trophy as some thought he would be.  He is getting a full move-set, Final Smash and all!

Be A Team Player

Today’s update is called the Team Healer.  Hopefully this will only turn on during team battles seeing it would pretty useless in free-for-alls.  This is a great concept because it goes into more detail when it comes to team battles.  Never in the past has a Smash games had items that team players could help each other with.  A Smasher must wonder what else can Sakurai have in store for Team Battles to make it more in depth?  Maybe items that will allow you to power your team mate up?  In any case, here is what the Team Healer does.

The Golden CD

One of the biggest parts of Super Smash Brothers is unlocking features even in our Smash 64 days. First we were able to unlock characters and stages which evolved into unlocking trophies and event matches in Melee. For some of us, unlocking everything is our main mission when playing Smash Brothers. In Brawl it seems like the have taken unlockables to a new level.

The Icy Options Unveiled

Super Smash Fans everywhere, let me be the first for the Shining Fists to introduce to you, the Brawl Main Menu!  This is what everyone’s been waiting for, to see what the screen will look like when you first turn on Brawl (minus the opening cut scene).  The options menu looks great too.  It looks simple, eloquent, and beginner friendly.  You don’t have to be a Brawl master to figure out how it works.  

The Day Smashers Cried

Today was supposed to be a momentous day for Smashes.  Today was supposed to be the day where you run to the game store, run and get your reserved copy of Brawl, rip open the packaging and start unlocking everything.  Today was supposed to be the giant update of Ridley, Megaman, or Gino.  Today IS the day in Smash history were we got….Friends List?
