    Brawl In The Family always has been a very clever strip.

    He was too busy kicking reason to the kerb to notice that one. :rolleyes:

    So anyway, I've been enjoying the stream of daily new images on smashbros.com that have been revealing soooo much about the game.

    And by that I mean they're amazingly boring. Woo closeups of Samus.

    You'd think they could add character bios or move breakdowns if they're not announcing anything new. It's still ages away from release, but they could give us that much at least.

    I want more backhanded trophy descriptions in the style of Marth's 1st one from Melee:

    The betrayed prince of the Kingdom of Altea, the blood of the hero Anri flows in Marth's veins. He was forced into exile when the kingdom of Dolua invaded Altea. Then, wielding his divine sword Falchion, he led a revolt and defeated the dark dragon Medeus. Afterwards, Altea was annihilated by King Hardin of Akanea.

    That last line always slayed me. A similar example using Luigi would be:

    The younger but taller brother of Mario. Luigi has a very certain set of skills that separate him from his sibling, such as jumping higher, floating longer and professional ghostbusting. This comes at the expense of decreased traction on surfaces and loss of control. When paired with his brother in the Mario and Luigi RPG adventures, there is almost nothing he can't accomplish. He will die alone.

    i love they would see add Bayonetta and Vanessa Z. Schneider from P.N.03 gamecube game

    An old friend of mine used to always call her "Seamus". :pac:

    seamus arán is obviously irish, which is why me and my friends called him by his real name: james bread.

    james is one of the better nintendo protagonists in my opinion. i like him best for his role as mr metroid of the metroid games. there he fights mother bran on behalf of the galactic space breaderation. there are also flying slugs that suck out your life but forget their name.

    i think when they finally show what james looks like under his mask, that he should look a lot like hank hill because he's a pretty old guy at this point lol. also hank hill comes from texas, and james was raised by the chorizo, which is the favourite brand of sausage of mexico, which is in texas.

    i don't know why there was a girl in brawl with yellow hair who was not mr metroid. zero suit? so if you take away mr metroid and his suit, you have zero suits left and then it's just a girl with yellow hair. wtf?

    stop being stupid nintendo and show us james face in this game!

    idiots!

    I believe I'll field this one;

    Samus is a girl. The slugs are called bloopers.

    naturally she a girl but unfamiliar with the metroid games like most of my friends are they think its man under that suit when told them its was woman under they were shock beyond belief :D then I said to them play metroid one game on the nes or metroid zero mission on gba finish it and the end of either game she removes her suit and get see her in bikini outfit with a ray gun :D

    or in Super smash bros brawl

    Zero Suit Samus

    There are two methods to acquiring Zero Suit Samus. The first and easiest method is to hold down the R button (on the GameCube or Classic controllers) or the minus button (on the Wiimote) from the stage select screen. Hold down R, select Samus, select your stage, and then release the R button. You should start the battle not as "armored" Samus, but Zero Suit Samus.

    Polygon had a wee interview with Sakurai about character selection. Just the usual "It's hard" stuff for the most part.

    http://www.destructoid.com/smash-bros-director-talks-stress-of-character-selection-256531.phtml

    He also went on to say this:
    During the development of Sakurai's last Smash Bros. game, 2008's Super Smash Bros. Brawl for Wii, this is the type of insight we'd hear from the designer through the Super Smash Bros. Dojo website. Sakurai said we should expect to hear less from him during the development of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. The developer promises "daily visual updates" from his desk will be posted to Miiverse and on the game's official website.

    "I'm not going to talk as much," he said.

    Guess we're stuck with ever so exciting Mario being painted liked one of Sakurai's French girls.

    Admittedly today's picture is kind of funny.

    Since melee is being played at evo this year, I wonder if any of the high level players have any thoughts on what they'd like to see in the new game. If they'd even be interested in it.

    If Brawl+, Project M etc are any indication, the Melee players want the Melee fighting engine/mechanics again, but with the cool character roster and stages of brawl included.

    I'm far from high level, but that's what I'd be happy with.

    Did I say "happy"? I meant ecstatic!

    Pikmin & Olimar has been added to the website proper today:
    http://www.smashbros.com/en-uk/characters/pikmin.html

    Another character with only Wii U screens. Still no idea if that's significant.
