Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Japanese: 大乱闘 スマッシュ ブラザーズ X, Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu Ekkusu, Great Fray Smash Brothers X) is the third installment of the Super Smash Bros. series. It was due for release December 3, 2007 on the Nintendo Wii in North America. However, it has now been announced that the game is set for release February 10th, 2008. Virtually all information known about this game has come from the the game's official website, Smash Bros. DOJO!!. The first playable demo for Super Smash Bros. Brawl and a tournament was available at the E for All Event at Los Angeles.

The Subspace Emissary
On July 20th, Smash Bros. Dojo!! was updated with a collection of enigmatic images that depicted Mario and Kirby transforming from trophies into fighters (akin to the introduction of Melee). After Kirby’s apparent defeat at the hands of Mario, he is changed back into a trophy, but Mario reverses the transformation and Mario and Kirby shake hands. However, the sky darkens soon after, and Meta Knight’s ship, the Halberd, flies over the stadium, soon followed by the appearance of a mysterious character. The screenshots were accompanied with this description:

''In this world, trophies fight. They know nothing but fighting. Fighting is the sole reason for their existence. Being turned back into a trophy, being unable to fight, is much like death. Those are the rules of this world. But...When someone...or something...breaks those rules, the world will pay a terrible price...''

The post was placed under a mode referred to as “???” until August 3rd, when it was changed to "Adventure Mode." On August 3rd, Smash Bros. Dojo!! was updated again. This time, more information was given. The mode was dubbed “The Subspace Emissary,” and a multitude of screenshots were shown, as well as a cutscene related to the “This World…” update. In the cutscene, Mario and Kirby were seen shaking hands, as depicted in the screenshots, and after waving to the crowd, the Halberd appeared as it did in “This World…” The mysterious character from before was shown to be one of apparently many odd, robot-like creatures formed from some sort of shadowy matter. Princess Peach and Princess Zelda were seen watching from the sidelines, but rushed down to the middle of the stadium to assist Mario and Kirby in fighting the mysterious army. After Peach and Zelda reach the stage and help destroy the Primids, an entity from the sky called The Ancient Minister appears on the stage. The Ancient Minister drops a Subspace Bomb on the arena, then flies off. As Mario approaches the bomb, he is hit by a cannonball and is sent flying from the arena. Petey Piranha appears and captures Peach and Zelda in cages. Some fans believe that Mario "broke the rules" of the World by reviving Kirby, and this is what triggered the Halberd to arrive and deploy its drones.

The various screenshots in the update depicted a multitude of new enemies, as well as a few familiar ones, such as a Hammer Bro, who was previously confirmed as an Assist Trophy, and Bullet Bills. There were also a new series of enemies that were introduced that are part of the Subspace army. Some enemies of the Subspace army appear to be helpful while other ones are dangerous.

The updates “This World…” and “What is the Subspace Emissary?” have definitely had an impact on the Super Smash Bros. community. Many have wondered whether a fully-fledged story would fit into the Super Smash Bros. universe or not. Others believe that it will change Super Smash Bros. for the better.

Control
There are four kinds of controls for the game.
 * Wii remote(sideways)
 * Wii remote + Nunchuk
 * GameCube Controller
 * Classic Controller

Pit
Pit is the angel from the NES game Kid Icarus. He uses a pair of blades that can reform into a bow to shoot arrows. His wings allow him to perform multiple jumps like Kirby or Jigglypuff.

Wario
Wario is Mario's evil counterpart. He is a lot stronger than Mario and has his own game company which produces Micro games. In Brawl, he wears his WarioWare attire instead of his usual plumber suit, to distinguish him from Mario. One of his attacks is an atomic fart, called the "Wario Waft", which was originally thought to be his Final Smash.

Zero Suit Samus
Zero Suit Samus is Samus Aran with her Chozo armor replaced with a blue jumpsuit (taken from Metroid Zero Mission). She is armed with an energy pistol that can change into a beam whip. Samus will transform into Zero Suit Samus after using her Final Smash.

Meta Knight
Meta Knight is one of Kirby's many colorful rivals. He attacks with quick sword swipes and can multi-jump like Kirby and Jigglypuff. He's also able to glide with a slow descent.

Solid Snake
Snake is from Konami's Metal Gear Solid series. According to Sakurai, Snake will fight using explosives instead of knives and guns. He is also the first known third-party character to appear in a Super Smash Bros. game, though his creator, Hideo Kojima wanted him to appear already in Super Smash Bros. Melee, but there was just not enough time for it when he made the request. Additionally, Sakurai has stated that he feels it would be appropriate that a "guest" character such as Snake should need to be unlocked, so it is likely that Snake will be a secret character, rather than a starter.

Ike
Ike is the main character of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. The first newcomer revealed since the E3 2006 trailer, he wields his mighty two handed sword Ragnell with only one hand as a testament to his strength. Ike brings his special move Aether from Path of Radiance into Brawl with him.

Pokémon Trainer
The generic Pokémon Trainer from the Pokémon games appears as a playable character, though he does not fight on his own, instead he stands by the sidelines and uses Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard to fight for him.

Diddy Kong
Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's nephew and sidekick, and a playable character in many games of the Donkey Kong series. He is confirmed to have attacks based on his moves in Donkey Kong 64.

Lucas
Lucas is the main character of MOTHER 3, the Japanese only sequel to EarthBound. He is a little timid, but apparently has a vast fighting prowess. His special moves are somewhat similar to Ness, but appear to be stronger. Lucas's physical fighting sytle is also different from Ness'.

Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic is the main character of SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog series and Mario's former mascot rival and second third-party character to be shown after Snake. He appears to use his trademark Spin Dash attacks.

King Dedede
King Dedede is the main villian of the Kirby series, and is known for being Kirby's ultimate rival. He is a penguin who wields a giant hammer, and is the self-proclaimed King of Dream Land.

Smash Ball
The Smash Ball is a small, glowing orb that allows the user to activate a Final Smash. The Smash Ball floats around the stage, making it difficult for players to reach it. However, there's a catch.

It can be dropped like a normal item if a player is hit before using it. It can also be destroyed by stage hazards.

Spectator Mode
This mode is available during Wi-Fi play. It is intended for players who would rather watch an SSBB match then playing in one.

Trailer #1
The Super Smash Bros. Brawl trailer was first shown at E3 (a.k.a. Electronic Entertainment Expo). Nintendo's surprise showing came at an after-hours conference on the first day of E3 (and not during Nintendo's pre-E3 press conference, which is typically the time any major projects are unveiled for E3). It was first shown on May 11, 2006.

The trailer shows a very dramatic fighting montage of some classic Super Smash Bros. characters, and, one by one, new characters to this newest installment to the Super Smash Bros. series that includes Wario, Pit, Meta Knight, and the surprising but welcome Solid Snake.

Trailer #2
This SSBB trailer came out in late 2006, and featured variations of people playing SSBB, along with small bits of characters trying out new moves, and in general just moving about around the stage. One of the most noticable things was the ability of characters to crawl. All of the new characters were given a once-over, and many new things were discovered.

Another interesting development was the increase in the intricacies of stage design. Many stages had very pleasing backgrounds, with stunning visuals. One stage was seen that had destructible platforms, and another was seen with Meta-Knight's ship flying by in the background. Another stage that was shown had a look about it that definitely suggested a Mario Kart theme, as many Shy Guys raced on in the background (similar to Mute City). Fans of the Metal Gear series may notice the similarities between the Helipad area in the beginning of Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes and the background featured behind Solid Snake during the trailer. At the end of the trailer Fox made his return on a floating platform in space, many fans not liking his face appearance. Note: Zero Suit Samus and Fox hold their weapons at all times as they fight.

As expected, there will be many new treats in the next installment of the Super Smash Bros. series, but will (hopefully) retain the overall feel of the gameplay.

Trailer #3
This trailer was released during a Nintendo Press Conference on October 10th, 2007.

Like Trailer #2, this trailer starts off with various characters fighting each other, this time with the health meters present. Andross is shown attacking the fighters, and changes to Fox grabbing a Smash Ball and uses his Final Smash. Of note, Zero Suit Samus is also shown with a smash ball while Fox is grabbing the Smash Ball. Yoshi is seen causing massive damage with his Final Smash, and then a montage of Pokémon (some new) and Assist Trophies are shown. The Trailer then shifts to the Stickers and Trophies. After that we are treated with quite a bit of Subspace Emissary gameplay footage. Finally, all the currently revealed characters each strike a pose. The movie unfortunately ends with "Coming Soon", indicating a delay from the original December 3 release date.

Mini-Trailer #1
Although not much of a trailer, a small video, about six seconds in length, can be found here. It has some original footage, as well as some footage from the Nintendo World trailer.

Smashboards user Devastlian, while watching the footage, noticed what appears to be a gameplay tweak in Brawl. In the last scene of the short trailer, Pikachu is attacked in the air, causing him to tumble onto a platform. After very briefly laying on his side Pikachu avoids an attack from Pit by what appears to be a roll, which can be done in SSBM by simply hitting left or right on the joystick when laying on the ground. What Devastlian noticed was that Pikachu rolled right off the side of the platform and down onto the main platform of the stage. In SSBM, the character would simply stand up at the edge of the platform. It appears that the roll is a bit faster than other trailer footage of characters rolling, so some argue that the animation is a tech. Regardless, this small detail was an interesting find for SSBB anticipators.

Mini-Trailer #2
About fifteen seconds of new Brawl footage was shown at the E3 2007 Nintendo press conference, and can be seen here.

The vast majority of footage was of things that had already been revealed at the Dojo site, but had not yet been shown in video form. This includes Fox using the Cracker Launcher, in-game footage of Bowser and Zelda, and battles taking place in the Delfino Plaza and Bridge of Eldin stages. The video did bring about something new, though, and that was a very brief shot of Donkey Kong in one of the clips, confirming him to be in the game. Other small things of note are the Bulblin seen briefly on Bridge of Eldin and what appears to be Wario's taunt, though, to be fair, Wario has made numerous actions which could be identified as taunts, so it is still unclear.

The video was posted on Smash Bros Dojo!! the same night. It can be seen here.

Snake joins the Brawl
Posted on the Dojo!! on October 2nd, 2007, this movie starts with a conversation between Snake and Colonnel Roy Campbell. Colonnel gives info on Mario and tells Snake to show what he's made of. After that, it shifts to various clips showing Snake's attacks and grabs.

Sonic joins the Brawl
Posted on the Dojo!! on October 10th, 2007, this movie starts by a fast-moving camera travelling over a grass plain while hearing a drumming sound. The camerathen then shifts to Mario kicking some Goombas, before shifting back to a close-up of Sonic, running around. After bumping into Mario while crossing the screen, Sonic comes back and says: "Sonic's the name, speed's my game". The music changes to Sonic Adventure 2 theme "Live and Learn" while showing differents clips of Sonic's attacks. The video ends by showing Super Sonic, which is revealed as his Final Smash.

Subspace Emissary Trailer #1
The 42-second trailer starts off with Mario and Kirby shaking hands and the crowd cheering. Then, thick clouds appear and the Halberd appears over the stadium. Gaseous purple forms are dropped from the ship, which then form into the strange creatures from the "This World..." update. Zelda and Princess Peach are watching this from the sidelines, then come to the aid of Mario and Kirby.

Subspace Army
The video itself continues from the previous video. The Ancient Minister shows up and drops the Subspace Bomb and activates it with the R.O.B.s. Mario tries to stop it but stops and gets blasted by a cannonball and sends him flying. Then Zelda and Peach get caged by Petey Piranha and leave Kirby to fight against him.

Pit's Descent
This cutscene shows Pit watching the stadium be pulled into Subspace through some kind of fountain. Just as he does, Palutena shows up and gives Pit his bow, sending him to stop the Subspace Army. He runs up a set of stairs and stands against a wall. The wall then opens up and Pit falls back. He starts gliding through the clouds while Kid Icarus: The Underworld plays in the background.

Donkey Kong Makes His Stand
This cutscene shows minions of Bowser taking off in a sort of hover-trolley, stealing a horde of Donkey Kong's bananas while he is taking out some intruders. He then leaps outside in search for his bananas, finding that the minions are already taking off. A goomba shoots three bullet bills at DK to try to slow him down, but at the moment Diddy Kong jumps in the air and with his Peanut Popguns shoots all the bullet bills and destroys them. Looking off a cliff the team sees that the minions have left and strikes a pose, determined to get back the bananas.

Fox's Misfortune
This cutscene shows Diddy Kong exiting the jungle, coming upon the wreckage of an Arwing. While he inspects it closer, a claw comes out of the water and grabs him, then coming out of the water, it is revealed to be the Pokemon Rayquaza. It thrashes around a bit, but as it does, Fox knocks Diddy out of its clutches. It attempts to fire an attack at Fox, which he uses his new Reflector to deflect. The pose that he assumes afterwards would lull the viewer into believing the immediate danger has passed.
