The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

neither can I, unfortunatley my best character, Faloc, is either gonna get the boot, or a different move set so i'm probably going to have to learn to play as someone else. So far, i think i like Pit and Zero Suit Samus the best.

You guys are going to have all sorts of fun when this comes out.  I'm still am a bit curious on confirmed pokemon though I've given up just about all hope of ever playing this.

Well, uh... I don't really know what you're exactly getting at, but I know that Pikachu is confirmed, as is the PokÈmon trainer, who can call out wither Charizard, Ivysaur, or Squirtle out of a PokÈball. I don't know exactly how it works, but I hear that it's a hoot!

From what the SSBB Dojo is saying, you rotate between the trainers 3 pokemon but they all share the same damage meter. Also, something about a stamina effect whereby if you overuse one pokemon, it can tire and it's attacks become weaker/ineffective...or something close to that. Therefore, it encourages you to use all of the pokemon evenly rather than leading with one all the time.

I liked the concept of how Zero Suit Samus emerges. Apparently, by using these new "Smash Balls" to unleash your characters ultimate attack, Samus's one overloads her suit and it falls off her...thus leaving you with "Zero Suit Samus". Not sure exactly if she'll be a selectable character from the start (as in on the character select screen). Maybe they might do the thing they did for Zelda/Shiek. If you hold the A button before the match starts with Zelda, you can sub-in as Shiek instantly rather than transforming from one to the other.

Snake's the one I'm most curious about. Someone I wouldn't have thought to star in such a particularly-styled game to make such an appearance is great! I can imagine the people's shock at the E3 presentation when they saw that clip of him jumping out of the cardboard box.  :DD Looks like they are staying very true to his movements. The P-P-K combo, rolling into crawl postion, using the stinger...can't wait!

Bet all American gamers who are into this are ecstatic about the given release date! Early Dec I've read (Lucky sods :lol ) Just in time for Xmas. Guess we've gotta sit and wait til about Jan or early '08!

Kickass news and potentially tear-inducing news. But for now, just check out the videos. They're AWESOME.

Yes!!

"Sonic's the name, speed's my game!"

I've been waiting for this! Sonic's finally going to show what he's made of in Brawl! The legendary clash between Mario and Sonic can finally happen!

Even after a few hours of learning about this unbelieveable update, I'm still not believing it.  You know that feeling, right? :)

Sonic will definately become one of my top choices to battle with, as well as Kirby and Snake.  Now who shall I pick for a final selection? :)

I seriously can't wait for this now. :^.^:

this may shock you, but I feared this happening... now Sega's gonna take the game over if I figure correctly... I really didn't want Sonic in Brawl, there's very few ways for them to compensate to me...

I think we all had an inkling that if there was ever to be another 3rd party character hitting Brawl it would have been Sonic. Since our famed blue-blur hasn't had a console to call his own since Sega quit their hardware production lines, it's kinda not surprising that he's made a guest appearance!  ;) Seeing how Sonic tends to be kinda close to the current string of Nintendo consoles (GC, DS and Wii) I guess it was only a matter of time before we saw him again.

Still...WICKID! Sonic's on Brawl!!! Woo HOO!!!  :D This is only adding to my angst to want to own this game!! It's great to hear that they've stayed true to Sonic's hertiage by including his original sound effects for things like his jump and the spring! Damn Ninty of Europe of delaying our launch till after Xmas!  :bang Still...good things come to those who wait... :^.^:

*mumbles* who ever came up with that saying obviously didn't know about this game  :DD

Wow I found out we have a pokÈmon trainer as well who stands on the side lines and send out one of three pokemon to battle for him, he issuing commands and they do as he orders. It amazing to see them take brawl so far. this is a must have game!!!
