Not hard to find out if you look in the right places such as the offical site of Nintendo and GAME.UK, those show the same information roughly on the realse of the games and console. Nintendo Wii is suppose to come out the same time as the Playstation 3. Try to get a grip on the market by making their price lower then PS3 and easy to buy and on top of it you got Halo 3 coming out on the date of PS3 so you have three top listed items coming out almost at once.

This is going to cause a storm between the three brands.

I heard right from the source at E3 that it won't come out until 2007 at the earliest.

I just ran a check and found that the news had changed from the looks of it only 2 weeks ago, it seems like there is possible chance it comes out with Wii but also a chance it will be Christmas or January 2007. there isn't now a real time frame for the Brawl game. since it could change anytime now. so there is so the time of it let out day is now very much unknown. it could be 2007, christmas this year or even when WIi comes out, we just have to wait and see

Looks like it now, E3 can say it out in 2007 now, but how the information been changed so many times it could be old news and that a new another date been given one that haven't set to the public, all we know this could be false and that they will release it with Wii as a shocker to the public which they think it out in 2007 not when Wii comes out.

For Brawl? I thought they've gave out the newest ones already. Since they show it on the trailer.

So an estimated 50 charcters?  Yikes! :o

If you ask me, Nintendo has gone so high in gaming greatness, they're going to leave the other consoles in the dust. :lol:

To think, Nintendo was the first game console to come out, and since then they've stayed #1. :^.^:

How do they do it? ;)

SSB Brawl looks awesome! I didn't think they'd be able to top Melee but it looks like Ninty has shone again! The cast line up looks great including Konami's very own Solid Snake. How niffy is that?! It'l be cool if Snake's dedicated voice artist David Hayter would play his voice. Just to crown it all off. I wonder if there are gonna be any other cameo appearances from other gaming heroes/villians? I supposed there is a fine balance in it because it won't seem like a true blooded Nintendo game if too many cameos start turning up.

One rumour I did hear is that there are supposed to be different versions of Link available. So Links from across the Zelda series history from Ocarina of Time Link, Young Link, Wind Waker Link and the Twilight Princess Link (the one from the preview) are possible options all with their unique abilities. I don't know how true that rumour is but it'll be cool to see that in action. Heard Diddy Kong is supposed to be another character but again that's just rumour so accuracy is sketchy.

Either way, Brawl is gonna rule! It's schuduled for '07 but no quarter has been designated. I know for sure it's not out at the end of this year...it's not a launch title like Smash Bros was for the Gamecube but hey...it's definitely gonna be worth the wait!  ;)

Some people have a fun time creating their own ideal character screens I guess  (none of these are official--they're fan creations)

Some of those characters included would actually be interesting additions me thinks! Megaman for one (but he's Capcom not strictly Nintendo), Sonic (but that's SEGA's mascot), Isaac (I'm assuming that the guy from Golden Sun but again that's not strictly Nintendo).

I think it's cool that they've got Solid Snake in there but if there are too many cameo appearances, I personally think that that may spoil the true essence of Smash Bros a little too much. It's supposed to be as Nintendo put it "A Nintendo All-Stars battle royale". A cameo or two is cool but too many would distort the nature of this wonderful gaming series.

Well Metal Gear came out on Gamecube I guess that why Snake made a appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, I gather why they pick all those charcaters since SEGA has no console now and Sonic on Playstation, Xbox and Gamecube with some of the major SEGA icons. So in a way Sonic jus moving towards the Nintendo all stars locatation.

Only stating what happened from history of SEGA no longer a console provider after the failiar of Dreamcast.

You know, I counted 71 charcters with the second pic.  If that many comes forth for one game, I'm gonna faint! :P:

To me, Kirby is still the best of them all.  More charcters means more powers to use against you. :D

However, if any of these come true, I see quite a number of backups to pick when I play against people who have the rule of "No two players can have the same charcter" floating around. :) (Mega Man, X, Sonic, Dixie, Krystal... the list goes on. :lol:)
