smah bros site up and running, hints with the musicians?

BlitzKrieg

So the site has gone official today...still no news on new characters

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

buuuut.


If one is to assume it is like previous smash bros games, where the each character has their original game music stage popped into their stage. Then the musicians selected for the game might drop a good few hints right?

The question now...which games are getting stages (those like meteos, everbody votes channel and digital pinball) which are just musicians providing music and which are actual characters being put in.

I raise my eyebrows in hope at the following:

Kingdom Hearts
Chrono Trigger
Streets of Rage
NIGHTS
Grandia
Wild Arms
Devil May Cry

but this is all guesswork.

I only perused the site very briefly, how do the controls work?

Star Lord

The game listed there that made me raise my eyebrows most is Killer 7, which is mentioned a few times :eek:

[edit]
The fact that he said:

This is dangerous. It's a little risky.
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, it's the line-up of musicians who are contributing to Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Just take a look at this list!

before listing the musical contributors would definately lead me to think that he is letting stuff slip by listing it all

Let the wild speculation begin!

Enough said. I don't think too much can be drawn from that list.

I'd be surprised if there was more than one character we didn't already know about.

Star Lord

Well, he did say that some of them are lending their own touches to classic Nintendo arrangements.

if its anything like the previous smash bros, then my guess is there might be a Wii themed level

I'd love to see Justin, Sue and Feena from Grandia but alas it's wishful thinking. I still wouldn't rule out Nights or any other sega characters appearing.Could be a streets of rage themed stage, fingers crossed.

thelordofcheese

Maybe a NiGHTS themed stage like splash garden, or Soft Museum, complete with original NiGHTS music...

that'd be sweet.

Dante wailing on Pikachu is intriguing.
Although as Melee proved anyone wailing on Pikachu is amusing.
