1 Day...! (New Brawl Site Countdown)

[v3x?]

omg... i may just cream my pants

 

[lonejedi]

I don't get it. What's the big deal with May 20?

*Hits Redsonic in the face*

They just talked about it in the past posts!

 

[Mr.GAW]

Would you just die if he released all of the characters? It's not impossible. Didn't he say he planned on doing so before the game came out?

 

[NeoNXToshiro]

Brawl will be immaculate.

 

[Kaizer]

Wow, finaly some news! Release dates + new chars would be awsome.

 

[Destiny Smasher]

Let's go back and remember the site of Smash Bros. Melee, shall we?

For those who remember, when the Smash Bros. Melee site came out, I remember they updated it with a new character every month. I think it was month. It may have been every week, though...

But I think they started with the basic roster and then updated with all of the extra characters once per month or so.
I still remember to this day when I first saw Mewtwo and Dr. Mario and Game and Watch. XD

Anyways, here's my prediction:

They launch the new site in 7 days (duh).

AT launch, they will reveal some kind of release date (or thereabouts).
Though this one is kind of wishful thinking. But it would be seriously smart for them to do so.

They start a character roster page which includes all of the characters we know so far, and they also reveal a new one.
They will periodically update the site after that with a new character.
I would figure either they update every week if they only start with the characters confirmed so far.

So, figure that for the next long while, we'll mostly be seeing rehashed versions of old favorites, and once in a while, they'll reveal a new one--although maybe they'll save all of the new ones for closer to the release.

I'd expect new screenshots and maybe even a new trailer.
If they go the way of the SSBM site, every character page will have some brief video clips showing off some of their moves.

At SOME point, they're also going to have to reveal new gameplay mechanics. When they decide to do that is anyone's guess.

Of course, this entire POST has been an educated guess of sorts. =P
So who knows?

All I know for sure is that after pulling a stunt like this, Nintendo needs to start the hype machine and start revealing new info to our parched mouths. Two trailers in one year and little else to satiate our appetites...we have a hunger to be met.

 

[Destiny Smasher]

PS:

I thought this was cute:

 

[Zebesian Pirate]

I hope this news reveals roster additions or new stages, because I want the Australian release date, not the US date. Besides, I've already decided for myself that the US release will take place very late this year and we'll get it early next year. I see no reason why current trends would shift with this release.

 

[Mic_128]

Destiny Smasher: Needs Sakurai on it too

I'm gonna go with DS's take on it too, I'm willing to bet tht we get something similar to Melee's launch.

 

[Chaotic Yoshi]

Hush my darling, don't cry my darling, Brawl news creeps tonight...
HUSH my darling, don't cry my darling, the brawl news creeps tonight...

 

[travis.luckiest]

But this Panda Gatefinder won't let me in on the official site. It's a protection program that locks certain sites. smashbros.com seems to be one of them.

use an encrypted web proxy to get past programs that control what you can see online ..or find the IP of the site and connect to it through that
(run the command prompt in windows, type ping www.smashbros.com, and it will give you an IP)

i think the reason that they chose this date ..is because it is right around the time that halo 2 for pc and halo 3 beta open ..i mean ..i know that in japan halo isnt nearly as overhyped as it is in the US ..but maybe sakurai and company care about us american gamers
(gay-lo starring master-queef)

anyway ..i was really happy to wake up and see that

 

[El HP]

Finally thanks Lord.

PS:

I thought this was cute:

Miyamoto? what the hell Masahiro Sakurai is the creator of SSB so why not a photo of him? I hate how people overrate this guy they give him credit for something he didn't create.

 

[GreenMamba]

First Matt confirms that there is going to be a pre E3 Nintendo event next week where the big name titles are going to be on hand, and now this.

Sweet.

 

[Plomid]

[Elen]

Sweet. Gonna make my birthday weekend all the better if something comes out of this.

 

[Finigin]

Sweet! This is amazing! I hope DS is right with his theory. I would like to see some new stages too, though. O.o

 

[Plomid]

Holy hell its the same day i get my drivers license!

 

[NintendoWarrior]

I can't wait!

 

[Brawlmatt202]

FINALLY! Something WORTH looking forawrd to! And only a week away!

 

[Andromeda]

Hmmm... But should we really expect anything... godlike to happen? Count for the worst, so you all don't get massively pissed off when the site gets up.

 

[WR3K]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

 

[Plomid]

i cant imagine what the next 7 days or going to be like.......
oh wait I think i can:OMG maybe they will reveal(insert random info about brawl)when the site releases!
The hype is killing me!!!

 

[GenG]

It's 23:30 PM in Japan now. Will the counter change to 6 days at 00:00? Let's wait and see.

 

[Fawriel]

It just did.

 

[Andromeda]

Holy... We're even closer now! O_O

 

[B!ggad]

Aye ! 6 days !

**** it, I can't wait...

 

[Toologist]

I'm glad I have a lot of things to do this week that are important, which will probably make time go faster until the day hits. =)

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

Naturally, news with regard to Brawl just happens to hit teh internets just when I retire for the night... >.<;;;

At any rate, here's hoping that there will be some significant information released this time around, because if it's another "Guess what? Fox is in Brawl!" deal, my head will explode...

 

[Andromeda]

Hmm... It's early morning for you in america now, isn't it? It's in the middle of the day here! That means I can be there when the site opens!

 

[Destiny Smasher]

Haha.
Yea, pretty much.
I'm hoping for some cool stuff, but I'm not getting my expectations too high.
Then again, if the game really is coming out this year as the N says it is, they really need to start revealing some more info. Like...soon.

Zelda is one thing, but SSB is another.
SSB is a fighting game, and people want to know the new characters before they play the game--most, anyway.
Zelda is a bit different in that regard.
I'm crossin' my fingers and hopin' Nintendo reels us in with this bait they've cast.
I'm bitin'.

 

[Cisne]

hm , maybe a video with the rooster (basic one) and some Vs , mario vs snake D:

I just read someone post , you only want to know if WD is in ? FFS guys you ALL WILL BUY THIS GAME , wd in or not.

yay , 6 days X_X

 

[spjd]

My heart just skipped 12 beats!
The... The site is getting overhauled??!! I'm.... Speechless!

 

[Destiny Smasher]

Why does the __ day [Japan time] look the same?
Maybe it's just me.

 

[Diddy Kong]

**** YEAH!!!!!! =) Awesome! I bet we'll gonna see lots of other characters since I don't believe for a **** that Fox was the only old skool character they've completed so far! Samus was also already confirmed before we saw her in the trailers, so it's possible!

i don't think they would start with the confirmed ones but then again i could be wrong.....oh and finally we got something to look forward to...6 more days!!!!!!

 

[Destiny Smasher]

I think they would start with the confirmed ones--meaning the confirmed characters will ALREADY be there on the site.

And duh, I just realized why the symbol is the same--it must be "days" in Japanese.
Meaning it's technically like 6.5 days for us still.

 

[lanky_gunner]

dude now my hopes are screaming for new info. I say if no new info is given (highly doubt it) we riot and force new info but new overhaul so i will commence jumping into every wall and yelling to all my buddies of new information, so excuse me for a while

 

[Caael]

Ridley Ridley Ridley Ridley Ridley....

Be announced! Please!

 

[Wiseguy]

Spoiler! I know the big secret to be revealed in 6 days! Prepare yourself berfore reading further:

Spoiler

DonkeyKong is returning in Brawl.

 

[Chill]

I wish countdown clocks weren't so popular now.
