B1gC72 - PSN: KillaKornbread @ Jan 31st 2008 7:05PM

yea i think ill hold off on the Subspace Emissary ending since it seems alot longer and deeper than i originally perceived it, but everything else is a go!

riggs @ Jan 31st 2008 3:11PM

im gettin pretty sick tbh

Howard-the-Duck @ Jan 31st 2008 3:12PM

Where are my G&W vs ROB videos?!

Intentless @ Jan 31st 2008 3:14PM

The one I wanna see won't work... Dangit... I wanted to see user created...

Marty @ Jan 31st 2008 3:14PM

Is anyone else getting kinda sick of Smash Bros. news? I mean, sure it'll probably be a fun game, as it's prequels have been, but come on... it seems like they add a new character every damn day, and now leak new videos on the hour. Enough!

baby sea tuna @ Jan 31st 2008 3:18PM

I guess if there was ever news of other Wii games, they'd put that up but since there isn't, we'll have to settle for this. Otherwise it would be "OMG joystiq=tobias against Wii!"

FrankTheCrank @ Jan 31st 2008 3:19PM

Joystiq seems infatuated with this game.

I don't think it will live up to the hype.

And it probably won't sell in Halo numbers.

I'll still check it out, but it ain't Half Life for goodness sake.

naxe @ Jan 31st 2008 3:23PM

I couldnt have put it better myself.

Their are no suprises left. Everything has been shown already I feel like ive been playing the game for weeks already.

This new (super news age) is such a turn off. Remember when you read about games in magazines? pick them up at walmart. toys'r'us. kmart. While your parents went shopping you would run to the games to see what's new? the good old days. when games were fun to play and not just a time eater until next weeks release.

everything now is oversaturated.

samfish @ Jan 31st 2008 3:23PM

It'll outsell Halo easily.

I think it's only competition will be GTA 4, as far as sales numbers go.
...and I bet it'll still beat that.

I mean, Mario Galaxy is already moving towards the 6 million mark.

Fanboy @ Jan 31st 2008 3:25PM

sounds like somebody doesn't have a Wii. Either that or their dad didn't hug them and tell them "I love you" very much growing up.

vidGuy @ Jan 31st 2008 3:34PM

I had to sit through approximately four months of HALO 3 THIS and HALO 3 THAT. It even invaded my groceries, TV shows, and football games. If you don't want to see this, move on. I wish I could have avoided the Halo 3 onslaught as easily.

Evan @ Jan 31st 2008 3:35PM

@Marty
There were at least as many Halo-related news postings surrounding that game's release.

I don't know which will sell more, Halo or Brawl, but they are both games destined to sell millions of copies, so Brawl should be entitled to just as many news postings as Halo.

naxe @ Jan 31st 2008 3:37PM

@sam fish

actually i doubt that smash will have that many sales as galaxy. as much as i like smash it does take a learning curve and remember that the wii sold so much thanks to older people and kids. took me a couple days to actually win a match on the older versions and now with such an akward control sideways wiimote = hell. i doubt many people are gonna buy into the hype.

but then again i could be wrong and they sell enough to circle the globe 14 times.

James @ Jan 31st 2008 3:43PM

naxe,
There's different control schemes from what I understood. You should be able to use your GC controller or the Classic controller. I should be like playing the Cube version except prettier, online play, and a ridiculous amount of options.

ck @ Jan 31st 2008 3:43PM

I've been waiting for someone to comment "Gee, I'm sick of this crap."

This coverage only gets me more excited about the game (and no, it doesn't feel like I've played the game for weeks already, you douche naxe). And if you don't feel like watching or reading about it - then don't. The problem with this game is it's so easy to cover it because there's so much information - it's hard to do that with MGS4, GTAIV, FFXIII - because most of the developers don't want to unload tons of info.

It's got me so pumped I pulled out Melee and had some fun with it.

loof @ Jan 31st 2008 3:43PM

Brawl is pretty universal in appeal. I'll be surprised if it doesn't surpass Halo 3 eventually. It's got cute characters a fighting system that is pretty easy to grasp but hard to master and an is awesome in multiplayer.

Even my girlfriend and her friends enjoyed SSBM.

Mr.ESC @ Jan 31st 2008 3:47PM

Well if you don't want the spoilers the following should keep you all busy.

X -7 = 19 + X

You should be able to resolve this.

FrankTheCrank @ Jan 31st 2008 3:53PM

Samfish, I must disagree.

It's a fighting game. The genre has seen better days.

Is this the start of that genre making a return? I hope so.

But Halo numbers...eh, I wouldn't bet the house on it.

Intentless @ Jan 31st 2008 4:19PM

This isn't just a fighter itself. I know plenty of people that are hardcore fighter players and they love this game but then I know scores more that can't stand fighters but this is a religion for them. It won't be Halo numbers... Not likely anyway... But it will be close if not exceeding Galaxy's sales... I'd be shocked if it didn't...

Noshino @ Jan 31st 2008 4:27PM

samfish,

you went a bit too far, tie or surpass the sales of Halo 3 (7.12 mil), maybe...but go against the sales of GTA? are you delirious? most of the games of the games of the franchise have gone over the 10 mil copies...

how are you expecting SSBB to go above that, when GTA is aimed at a group that is MUCH wider than the one SSBB aims to? not only that, but the game is going multiplatform...which means that one can only expect, based on the sales history of the franchise, that GTA4 will have sales of 17 mil or so...

Once again, I'm not talking as a fanboy, I seriously don't see the appeal of the franchise, but I just don't see the reasoning behind your statement...

Marty @ Jan 31st 2008 4:29PM

If you want me to be perfectly honest, I thought the Halo 3 media saturation was too high as well. I don't own a Wii, but I like the console... I'm just sick of all these announcements.

I'm sure it'll be a good game. I'm sure it'll sell loads. I have no interest in if it sells more than Game X or not. And I'm just tired of hearing about it.

Fernando Rocker @ Jan 31st 2008 4:30PM

Noshino

One thing is for sure... SSBB will sell more than the PS3 version of GTA 4... no doubt about it.

Fernando Rocker @ Jan 31st 2008 4:36PM

And yes Noshino... GTA San Andreas is the most selling PS2 title... but with an instal base of 100 millions.

How do you expect that GTA 4 sell more at least 4 million on the PS3? It will need that every PS3 owner in USA buy the game... and that's not gonna happen.

Anam @ Jan 31st 2008 4:59PM

According to Wikipedia, Super Smash Bros. sold around 4.5 million copies, while Melee sold around 6 million. Halo 3 on the other hand has sold over 8 million already, and is still fairly new.

On the other hand, both of the previous Smash Bros. games were on relatively unsuccessful systems, and the introduction of Sonic will help sales thanks to Sega fans. That said, my bet is on Halo 3 for better sales, though it will probably be close.

Evan @ Jan 31st 2008 5:10PM

@Noshino
There simply aren't enough 360s+PS3s for GTA4 to sell 17 million. There were far, far more PS2s in the wild when San Andreas was released. GTA5 or 6 might sell 17 million, but GTA4.

bender @ Jan 31st 2008 5:14PM

I don't see why Brawl can't put up Halo numbers. I mean Melee did outsell Halo 1.

http://vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=939

http://vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=2291

Brawl may not outsell Halo in America, but Halo 3 barely made a dent in Japan, but Melee however, was the gamecube's only million+ game in Japan. Japan will be the reason why Brawl will probably outsell Halo 3.

Noshino @ Jan 31st 2008 5:19PM

Fernando,

"One thing is for sure... SSBB will sell more than the PS3 version of GTA 4... no doubt about it."

When did I say otherwise? why do you have to include the PS3 on this? stop being a loser and please stick to the matter at hand, which atm is the comparison of sales between SSBB, Halo 3, and GTA4

"How do you expect that GTA 4 sell more at least 4 million on the PS3? It will need that every PS3 owner in USA buy the game... and that's not gonna happen."

Have you heard of this console called the Xbox 360? which also happens to be getting this game and with exclusive episodes, yes yes, that one that you keep bringing to the table when you want to bash the PS3...yes, that one that has sold more than 16mil...

"GTA San Andreas is the most selling PS2 title... but with an instal base of 100 millions."

SSBM has sold 6 mil, being the best selling game for the NGC (21.72 mil thus far), but it was THE main reason many bought a NGC for...unlike the situation with GTA:SA and the PS2.

Once again, GTA aims at a group that is MUCH bigger than the one SSBB aims to, not only that, but fighting genre isn't something that appeals that much to the casual gamers, the Wii's widest group.

You can go by the trend Fernando, you can see that the sales of SSB haven't changed THAT much, but if you check GTA, you can see that their sales between each games have increased a lot...

Fernando, once again, GTA isn't a hardcore game, it has that "gettho"/mafia factor that seems to be "cool" right now, and guess what? it catches the media's attention one way or the other....unlike SSBB, that despite having well known characters, is a fighting game (that is enough to scare the casual gamer), many teenagers will find it "childish", and doesn't get as much hype as a GTA game...

Fernando Rocker @ Jan 31st 2008 5:26PM

Well Noshino... we will see... lets wait until next year... it's the only way to know.

itouchmyself @ Jan 31st 2008 6:09PM

Oh man Fernando, day after day after day you continue to amaze me. Your unadulterated hate for one console that you don't own is by far the most trite and pitiful display of fanboyism that has ever crossed the internet outside of SDF. But you sir, you are worst than SDF. At least the editor at SDF owns a 360 then makes false assumptions. Truth is, it doesnt really matter if the PS3 sells 10 million, has a killer game lineup, Home becomes the most used online service in gaming, then cures cancer and AIDS. You will still try to spin the story in Nintendo's favor. Silly boy. Don't you know that without Sony your precious Nintendo would probably have dropped out of the gaming business for good. Hell , without Sony there probably wouldnt even be an Xbox. The truth is SMB will not outsell Halo. SMB will not outsell GTAIV. SMB will not outsell FFXIII or VS. You are beginning to sound like abroken record
http://www.joystiq.com/2008/01/24/rockstar-finally-pins-gta-iv-delay-on-ps3-er-it-was-a-contrib/
I laugh at you sir, as an owner of all 3 systems I laugh. You are the one that is losing the console race because you fail to pick up a competing system with a great game lineup in store for 2008. Similar things were said about SMG and i dont see it breaking any records. You Nintendo fanboys, always the most entertaining indeed.

Noshino @ Jan 31st 2008 5:46PM

"we will see... lets wait until next year... it's the only way to know."

Then stop saying that it will sell more than this or that, seriously, if you don't have anything to back up your statements, then why bother?

I know its the only way to know, but history tends (NOTE: TENDS!) to repeat.

Now please, stop making this absurd comments, because I ll have to keep bringing up this information to shut you up...now, if what you say happens, then you can shove it on my face all you want...

naxe @ Jan 31st 2008 5:51PM

Noshino

you were on fire with that last comment. 100 vote up's. 100% truth.
it's so childish that people choose to bash other consoles when it has nothing to do with the post.

alot of people seem to have underlying issue's with sony. i guess sony didnt pay them enough attention when they were younger.

neways its cool to see someone stick to their guns and come out shooting.

itouchmyself @ Jan 31st 2008 6:12PM

@Noshino, exactly. Everything he says is construed fanboy tunnel vision speculation with no facts. It's quite entertaining.

Mr Khan @ Jan 31st 2008 6:29PM

I'm sorry but, itouchmyself, you're equally deluded if you think Brawl won't outsell Final Fantasy XIII or VS

itouchmyself @ Jan 31st 2008 7:10PM

@ Mr Kahn, really ? XIII is the most anticipated game in japan and US. Im positive that some people are even holding out to buy a ps3 until it is release, same goes for Japan.

TwEE @ Jan 31st 2008 3:16PM

I can't believe all the Battletoads made it into the game... this is amazing!

FOXHOUND @ Jan 31st 2008 3:19PM

And yet, no ROBOCOP or JEEBUS. FTL.

Zachary Hinchliffe @ Jan 31st 2008 3:37PM

MASTER CHIEF CONFIRMED FOR BRAWL

Shiro @ Feb 1st 2008 3:40AM

WHEN YOU BEAT HALO 3, MASTER CHIEF TAKES OF HIS HELMET TO REVEAL THAT HE IS BATTLETOADS.

Intentless @ Jan 31st 2008 3:27PM

Ok that was devious and awesome...

WiNG @ Jan 31st 2008 3:28PM

Still nobody knows Toon Link's final smash.

CorvosKK @ Feb 5th 2008 10:58PM

Supposedly, it's the same as Link's. I'm disappointed that Sakurai went back on not having clones in the game.

Like I said, this is only speculation, I personally haven't seen his final smash (although G&W's is hilarious!)

Onomah @ Jan 31st 2008 3:29PM

I wanna see Dedede's inhale move in action, I want to see if it copies foes as well, Also what happens when Kirby swallows Olimar? how would that work? would he throw pickmin too?

chris @ Jan 31st 2008 5:58PM

Dedede can't copy anything, he can just inhale and shoot them out. From what I remember of the Kirby games, he's never been able to copy abilities, he's always just had a much more powerful inhale and exhale/shoot/whatever than Kirby.

CorvosKK @ Feb 5th 2008 11:03PM

Kirby's inhale ability only copies the opponent's standard special move. Since Kirby won't be able to utilize the other uses of the Pikmin, I'm assuming he will just pluck them out and then automatically throw them.

@chris: Yes, my friend and I went and beat the original Kirby's Adventure for the NES and all he did was use his hammer, and then a stronger version of the inhaling (without the abilities of course)
