Smash Bros. Brawl unveils new Landmaster

[DZComposer]

This is what the Landmaster SHOULD have looked like in SFAs:

In case you're wondering why there is a Landmaster in SSBB, it is Fox's "Final Smash" move. You can actually control it. Pretty cool stuff.

[Syphe D. Mar]

Yep. Back to looking like a tank instead of a race car. ^^ Seems like they like they're basing everything on the 64 design.

[Star Yoshi]

w00t ^_^

I've been dying to see that final smash...

Now.... when are some more good updates coming? o_O

[DaBrain]

Neat, I really like that one. Now I'd like to see that thing in action. :)

I'm really looking forward to this. Smash Brothers on the Wii... I wonder how the controls will turn out...
This might just end up as the most fun Beat'em Up of this year.

[Syphe D. Mar]

Well, they're not gonna use Motion Sensor, if that's what you're hoping for. XD Plus for me, though. :D

Anyway, I always thought Fox's Special would be something like calling an Arwing blitzkrieg. Like a Ghost from Star Craft or Boris from Red Alert 2.

[DZComposer]

The Nintendo Wii really is a versatile piece of hardware.
I mean, when it comes to controllers, there are pretty much four different types.

I guess I have no choice but implement them all!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/gamemode/various/images/various01/various01_070608a.jpg

Wii Remote (turned on its side), Wii Remote + Nunchuk, Classic Controller, GameCube Controller

There’s no need to be confused about what does what—just choose the play style you prefer!

I suppose I would recommend the Nintendo GameCube controller, though. I like the feel of that powerful rumble.

Still, try out the other controls—they definitely give you a fresh experience.

Hmm? How do you do smashes and dashes with just the Wii Remote?
If I get the chance to tell you, I will.


Maybe this helps. It's from the official site, which is doing daily weekday updates. http://www.smashbros.com

[Fox_McCloud3232]

=) oooooooh preety!

[Brockenstein]

This game looks great but I am afraid I am going to have to beat my friend who loves Fox.... as Sonic BABY! O Yeah they put up a few days ago that he WILL be in the game Here (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/sonic.html) is his profile if you scroll down a bit there is a video... Looks like Fox will have to fight alot of new enemies this time around (¦·þ)

[DZComposer]

Meh... Delayed until February.

[Fox_McCloud3232]

Pretty! :)

[Brockenstein]

Meh... Delayed until February.

Yeah last I knew
US: February 10, 2008
Japan: January 24, 2008
Europe: TBA 2008

I think it will be worth the wait, but I believe the official site doesn't have a release date on it yet so who knows it may change again.

[Brockenstein]

I was going to make some comments but I think the PIX speak for themselves....

That proves you don't need the power of a PS3 to make nice graphics, if you do it right. ;)

[SHAD0W F0X]

MARCH 9th 2008 is the SSBB release date in the USA. Its already out in Japan... X(

But...

Wolf Odonnell is a playable character!!! and IDK if Krystal is going to make her smash debut.

Also, the website is always updated, almost daily check it out

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/index.html

[Brockenstein]

yeah I that date I posted was from along time ago, I have the game reordered just waiting now. I dun what the differences will be between the Japanese release and the US release but there has always been some differences. Though their may not be any this time since it goes online and all.

Didn't they say they were going to lower the amount of clone characters? Now we got Fox, Falco AND Wolf. :P

I imagine Krystal would be more likely to be an assist trophy, possibly with the rest of the crew.

Here's hoping for a Great Fox assist trophy. :D

[Syphe D. Mar]

Didn't they say they were going to lower the amount of clone characters? Now we got Fox, Falco AND Wolf. :P

But Falco, Fox, and Wolf are hardly clones. They only share 1 common attack. They're like Luigis when compared to Mario.

P.S. Do we need spoiler tags now?

[Scourge of Ages]

Yes, spoiler tags please.

Now I must cleanse my memory with much alchohol.



Thanks alot.

Starter Roster (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/SSBB_character.jpg)

Full Roster (http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/01/ssbbrosterhigh.jpg)

Not that it helps much, so instead of posting the images I just posted the links. They took out alot of clones and made the roster fuller in different fight techniques.

[Zero Flare]

Thanks for posting those, Brockenstein, you have really made my day! I'm really pleased to see that Krystal is there as a playable character, and not an assist trophy.
Ah, the sweet feeling of excitement ^_^
I don't care if Brawl comes out later in the UK, I'll wait. I'm just happy to see some indication of Krystal being playable.
Fox has an awesome Final Smash, btw. Some good destruction there.

I regret to inform you (and Krystal) that those are fake. Here is a video from the Japanese version with all characters unlocked: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ihao4xs-N2g

[Brockenstein]

You maybe right I duno I don't have the game yet, now that I am searching for that image again all I am finding is the "correct" one I duno kinda odd. I wasn't even paying attention to them but here (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/index.html) is all your confirmed characters and 3 secret ones??? I duno then. I am thinking on that page that Mr. Game & Watch is missing but in both versions of the "full" roster he is there.... so yeah I duno i'll wait and see~ [Note: You can click on the ? boxs to find out who those characters are.]

Well, what I am going off of is all the youtube videos you see of people playing the game with "the full roster" have the same as the video I posted. But yes, let's just wait and see.

[Zero Flare]

To be honest, that picture did look positively real. It had me fooled >.>
Quite upsetting to see that Krystal isn't in it after all, but I guess there's always next time.
It's great to see Sheik once again, though.

Game and Watch is on the left. And it's been confirmed on the Smash Boards.

[Descender]

And I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but from what I understand, Krystal isn't even an assist trophy; he makes a cameo on the Lylat Cruise course by speaking to the player now and again. Other than that...


And looking at Wolf just makes me drool; the guy's been made to be badass in this game, and it just tickles my fancy! A lot of his moves are slower, but incredibly powerful when compared to his Vulpine counterpart!


So yeah...

[Star Yoshi]

Yep. Back to looking like a tank instead of a race car. ^^ Seems like they like they're basing everything on the 64 design.

Which means they learned how badly they screwed up in SFAssault and are intending to make a new one that looks and feels similar to SF64.

[SHAD0W F0X]

sorry about my post, and if it scarred or offended anyone, because i forgot to make it "spoiler-proof"

[Zero Flare]

Ugh, Game&Watch is in Brawl? How annoying, I hate the way he jumps...
*BEEP*
Argh, headache >.<
It's not as if they could change his appearance anyway. I don't see much point in Game&Watch being playable.
I can imagine that Wolf will be an awesome character to play as though. I hope some of his moves are different from Fox's, though.

[SHAD0W F0X]

well, from a japanese video of SSBB, Woolf's moves are different from Fox/Falco.

He is more frantic, and a tad slower than his counterparts
