SO instead of being a nintendo character show-off, it'll be a regular video game character show-off.
Now all they need is Master Chief.
That would be evident when they put in Solid Snake, wouldn't it?SO instead of being a nintendo character show-off, it'll be a regular video game character show-off.

Seems fun .The original Sonic the Hedgehog game used only one button. I think its simple yet exhilarating play was its virtue.
And given that this game’s controls are also simple, I think it personifies his distinct characteristics.
<Side Special Move: Spin Dash>
![]()
Yeah, you have to have this.
Hop into a supersonic Spin Dash. If you charge it up just a bit, your speed will increase.
It’s also possible to rise up while spinning.
![]()
Spin Dash, jump. A two-hit combo.
![]()
Then keep pursuing with a midair attack!
![]()
And do a Spin Dash in midair to return.
That, too?
<Down Special Move: Spin Charge>
By holding the Control Stick down and tapping the special-move button, you charge up your spin and do a Spin Dash. This may feel better for some—there’s no pop.

KEEEEEEEEEE!
<Up Special Move: Spring Jump>
And his up special move is the Spring Jump. That spring launches you wayyy up in the air.
![]()
That’s high!
You might not use it on the ground much, but rumor has it that if you do, the spring that remains can be used by other characters.

Ah! It’s true.
Noooooooooooooooooooo!Today I have some good news and some bad news. Let's get the bad part out of the way first, shall we?
As many of you may have already heard, we have had to delay the launch of Super Smash Bros. Brawl by just a little bit—it will now be launching on February 10th in the Americas. I know that many of you will be disappointed by this news, but please understand that the extra development time will enable us to make the game the best it can be. It is my earnest hope that you will all be enjoying this game for many years, and we are all working very hard toward that goal.
Phew. Now for some good news to tide you over.
The forthcoming E for All event will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center beginning October 18.
And it appears that this event will display the first ever public playable version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl! I am planning on having people play the game—but with limited character selection.
The problem is Sonic. What to do... I suppose if we’re going to all this trouble, perhaps we should make him playable.
Oh, yes. And for those of you who come to play, please remember—you tap the Control Stick to do Smash attacks.
Have fun!
While playing the game, you might encounter an interesting situation. At times like this, you must PAUSE!
![]()
Stop the action and look at the scene from all different directions.
If that pause in the action makes for an interesting shot that you wish you could keep, then by all means, do so. Take a SNAAAAAAAPSHOT!
![]()
If you’re on the pause screen, you can snap a photo anytime!
![]()
Like this.
![]()
Take funny snapshots...
![]()
As often as you like!
You can take snapshots like the images we’ve shown here on Smash Bros. Dojo.
We had a snapshot mode in the past, but you couldn’t take a snapshot anytime in the middle of a match. And they were saved to a GameCube Memory Card—it wasn’t like you could save several dozens of photos.
However! This time there are SD cards! With those, you’ll have room to save plenty of snapshots!
![]()
Just give it a name and save it to either location.
But wait! There’s more!
![]()
"Send"???
This feature allows you to send your snapshots to people you’ve registered as Friends for Nintendo WFC play. So you can give them funny little screenshots as presents. You can view them in the Album.
Don’t you think you’d be happy to suddenly get a funny photo from a friend? Perhaps online brawling isn’t the only way to compete.
Uh, as for that thing that’s blurred out, that’s still a secret. We’re still in development, so I apologize in advance if it gets dropped, but we are thinking of one more trick for this mode.
The problem is Sonic. What to do... I suppose if we’re going to all this trouble, perhaps we should make him playable.
Of course it's not. It's Super-AIDS. It has to be.Sonic isn't causing the delay you idiots.
Sonic isn't causing the delay you idiots.
The videos are on here, but they're pretty gay.This stage recreates the structure in front of the helipad on Shadow Moses Island.
![]()
High walls on the left and right?!
Walls tower over the stage on the left and right, giving it a caged death-match feel.
![]()
The searchlight spots someone, and the"!" icon appears!
You can destroy the walls on the left and right with attacks. Those who aren’t skilled at launching foes upward may want to be proactive about attacking them.
![]()
The walls come tumbling down.
Oh, and occasionally a Metal Gear will appear from the background.
![]()
Metal Gear REX!
![]()
Metal Gear RAY!
Apparently one other kind appears, too. It’s supposedly a slightly newer model.
On this stage, Snake communicates with his team to learn the key characteristics of his rivals... Whoa... Seriously?
We’ve intercepted some of these communications and we’re delivering those to you now.
Like a Plainstrider, only more awesome.What the hell is a chocobo, anyways...some sort of candy bar?
