"The three finalists will win non-crystal-coated Wii console"

So there are crystal coated Wii consoles?

When I first read that, I saw the word "crystal" and I immediately thought of something else.

If I was American, and I lived in one of those locations, and I didn't work weekends, I'd consider entering.

I'm not sure how they decided on these "regions" for this. Why not cover some other areas of the country? There are a lot of areas that just aren't ever covered in these things. Why not Seattle? Denver? Dallas or San Antonio? Chicago? Atlanta? Miami? D.C./Baltimore? Raleigh/Charlotte? Nothing ever happens outside of NY, CA and MA.

I think Bungie is in Seattle and they did an event once there. I think there is also some other big developer there. I have heard about gaming events in Seattle also.

Right...I guess they're not really in the same category as the rest of us, but I was trying to think what actual "regions" would be, and Seattle is the obvious Northwest location. Personally, I'm from NC, and nothing happens here, which is fine, but you think they could at least bring it within driving distance (DC or Atlanta).

I think a decent question is what the hell does a crystal-coated Wii look like?

Contests are neat though.

They [Nintendo] couldn't do a better job about spreading it out over the five time zones in the US?

You know, there's people in the center of the country as well...

That was my first thought exactly. I can understand NY, what with having the Nintendo World Store there, and LA, but Boston and San Francisco? WTF?

Suck it Nintendo. From your friends in the midwest.

Only in Philly would the true winner of the tournament come in 2nd place since the 1st place winner would get shot during the closing ceremony.

wonder how the format will work is it 1v1 or 4 person FFA. items or no items. my guess is 4 person FFA winner moves on with items engaged.

you know the sad thing is the winner of those tournament in the highest probability would already have the japanese version of the game. making the whole getting brawl early kinda moot. they are basically giving rewards to those who modded their wii(something that ninty is against). this tournament would have been better if it was placed at the japan release so everyone sits at the same level rather than some impatient people have huge advantage over those who are waiting for the actual release date

Ack, I'm not going down to CA until this summer. Why couldn't they have one in Seattle, a place I can actually get to? I'm sure it's big enough to be a worthwhile location.

Figures they bring it to NYC a mere few hours before the launch.

So much for my interest...But MAYBE I'll show up for the midnight launch.

Did you read it as Smash Melee because that generalization of what a fair tournament is looks to be based on that assumption IMO. And then it would be shiek only since she is the unequivocally best character in the game.

No serious smash players will show, because the advanced techniques are gone.

Which means these tournaments will be fun!!!

Sillness: No serious smash players will show, because the advanced techniques are gone.

Are they, silliness? Are they all gone? I hope we catch each other.

Expect all melee pros that live in tristate to show up.

BEWARE SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!


For those big fans who want spoilers, go to WWW.Smashbros.com for a complete list that just keeps updating. They have characters from the old game and new characters, they also have hidden characters. They have items, modes, characters, stages, and notices.Some new characters include; Sonic, Snake, pokemon trainer, Lucas ( from a japan only release of earthbound), wario, and King DeDe. But remember these are just a few of the characters there are still many more! Also a few new stages are;pictochat, warioware, Smashville ( a DS animal crossing type stage), New Pork City ( a huge Stage), and Mushroomy Kingdom ( an old mario game stage on the original gameboy where you go and find the flag, but its now all desert and ruins!). So remember people, if you want all the hot details on this game, then remember, GO TO WWW.SMASHBROS.COM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
