well guys, I just recently talked to a friend of mine who works as a nintendo rep... He's been demo'ing brawl and says it kicks ***. Eventhough melee is a really really **** good game... my friend said that brawl puts it to shame. He used the gamecube controller to play.. i think its been mentioned before that you can use the classic controller... but it sucks. Also.. Metroid on Wii is coming out in august... THis is good news because its another confirmation that brawl will come out sometime between october-decemeber... my bets on october
