Super Smash Bros. Brawl countdown begun in official site - Image 1


Countdown sites have become common, I mean GTA IV did it, The Simpsons did it, and now Super Smash Bros. Brawl has jumped on the bandwagon. This game on the Nintendo Wii is said to be one of the most anticipated games on the said platform.

As of this article's writing there are 6 more days (Japan time) before the game gets released. So what's all the hullabaloo about? Well, if your idea of fun is watching your favorite Nintendo characters going at it in a free-for-all battle then this is the game for you. They've got Pikachu, Samus Aran, Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, and even Kirby as playable characters. There's a little something for everyone, even grandma.

If you're the type that actually follows these things, you can head to the site via our read link and check it out. If I were a rabid fan of this game, I'd consider leaving the computer on and just leaving it in the background so I can occasionally peek at it and smile. But then that's just me.

Uhhh...

As of this article's writing there are 6 more days (Japan time) before the *game* gets released You make it sound as if the actual game is being released... Sorry to rain on your parade, but it's only the site being launched, but we could get some new info.

Sora Co.?

Um...we all know that Sakurai is directing the game, right? I heard rumors that his newly formed company, called "Sora", is "developing" SSBB...but....I noticed something....look at the bottom of the website( Smashbros.com) do you see what I see..... copyright 2007 Nintendo/HAL Laboratary, Inc. Now call me crazy but....that "Hal Lab" was never there....get my drift?

ok qj, if you cant read japanese

then how DARE you ASSUME you understand what is written with any journalistic integrity?! It's just plain embarrassing.
by - 2007-05-16 02:36:04
You fool

READ THE DAM SITE. Thats when the site launches
by Gryff33 - 2007-05-16 16:24:12
Look again

It clearly says "site launches" in ENGLISH. This wasn't QJ misinterpreting Japanese; it was QJ misreporting English.
by - 2007-05-16 18:30:16
I know

but it also says "oopun made ato" in japanese, which means "[days] left until opening"

PIS S!

MOTHERF UCKER I'LL KICK YOUR A$S!
by JeimuzuWii - 2007-05-17 00:16:09
OMGWTFBBQ!?!?!

I AM HANGING ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT. Will they show new characters? New stages? A release date? ALL THAT AND MORE!?! Urgh! I think I'll pull a Cartman and freeze myself until Monday! *paces back and forth counting seconds until Monday*
by JeimuzuWii - 2007-05-17 00:29:11
Seriously?

Erm...dude, you might want to look up the original Smash Bros. You'll find that Hal has ALWAYS been in on Smash Bros! Dur! Christ....Smash Bros without Hal is ludicrous.
by - 2007-05-17 06:43:32
Actually

Actually, Sakurai developed the first Super Smash Bros., but left Hal and created his own company called Sora. Nintendo asked him to develop Brawl, but I'm not sure if he decided to or not.

dam

i seriously thought the game was going to be released in 6 days......... then ilook and its the frieken site...that sucks

Expect the unexpected !

The site does launch soon and i on the official nintendo site it says to expect something good, also i heard that the developer said they would add ridley,bowser jr, and cel shaded link. Maybe the new launch will include these characters along with new videos !!
by - 2007-05-20 11:45:50
@ pimpin

I can't believe that there are still people who think that that Ridley, Bowser Jr., Celda Link nonsense is real news. That rumor has been around since June of last year and has been refuted ever since. Sakurai never said anything of that nature on any radio show.
by - 2007-05-20 13:59:16
well maybe

This stuff was obtained by 1up.com and i guess they might be wrong but it doesn't hurt to wish because ridley would be a great addition to it along with bowser jr. Only time will tell if these rumors are true can't wait the for site to open tomorrow ~

super smash brawl

i'd wish they'd bring out some better games for the wii than this simple trash, well ok it aint that bad but if this meant to be the highlight off the wii's game line-up well.... nintendo are gonna loose buisness i say gta iv for wii and the new nfs
