Smash Bros. Brawl gets Coin Launcher, Dragoon, and sharing

by Christopher Grant on Dec 28th 2007 2:14PM

A trio of updates to the Smash Bros. Brawl DOJO reveal a handful of new features sure to excite the patient fanbase, while confuse the average gamer. First was yesterday's announcement of the Coin Launcher, a minigame of sorts to collect the game's myriad collectibles. Play matches to earn coins, use coins in the Coin Launcher, collect virtual gewgaws. Excited yet? How about a three-part superpowered rideable dragon, err, Dragoon? You can collect the three pieces during a battle, snag parts from your opponents, and assemble the "legendary Air Ride machine." Once you've got it, that's a one-hit KO. Still not excited? Put down those barbiturates and check this out: some pics of the game's sharing functionality, to blast levels and screenshots to your chums.

[Thanks, tipster army!]

From the SHARE page: "Now, downloaded data from Nintendo will gradually be overwritten, so there’s no need to worry about your Wii’s memory running out."

Riiiight... that's *one* way of looking at it...

Need Exclamation Rangers. Summon all 5 for an unbeatable formation!

!!!!!

I hope Smash Bros. doesn't turn into a Power Stone-style game of cat and mouse as a result of this power-up. That game had nothing to do with fighting and everything to do with collecting three gems that turned you into an unstoppable killing machine.

you can always turn some itens off =D

...and in powerstone you could too =x
and even i8ncrease the number of gens ...if i remeber correctly

but of course ... you will not turn ALL itens of because of one item that you don't like xD
