Anyone else kind of disappointed that it looks that Ike has replaced Marth? I really wish they'd just bring everyone back from Melee but it doesn't look like that'll happen.

I'd be fine with just keeping Marth and Roy. Preferably Marth though, Roy was total garbage.

What gives you the impression that Ike has replaced Marth?

Also, could someone sticky the thread? :3

I'm certainly not surprised by this based on Melee's adventure mode. Hopefully it really will be fleshed out enough to stand on it's own. The mentioning of "character development" is welcome too, since the 2 previous games have been pretty much devoid of any sort of story line. It will be interesting to see what comes from this.

On another note, this is probably the biggest updated they've done so far (in regards to quantity). Past few days have been pretty rewarding.

That video was fantastic till Zelda made that teleport move which looked just ridiculous (yeah, I'm being a bitch).

Palutnea is all that matters to me. Sorry, but I've been wanting that since they dropped Pit in the original trailer.

On to other business. Though I still don't think they'll drop the online mode (it would probably be simple, but passable), I would willingly trade it in for a full-on sidescrolling platformer contained in the adventure mode. Its what I dreamed of since rush-job Melee showed what was possible.

Character development? This should be good.

Quite an awesome update, especially because they snuck Peach in there as well. Also note how it explains that weird update from a while back, so now I can rest easy.

As for Ike, it's possible that he's a replacement for Marth, but it's more likely that he's taking Roy's place. I'm pretty sure Roy was only added to Melee to pimp the then-upcoming Fire Emblem GBA game, after all. As long as there's still a character that plays like Marth I don't care either way.

*E* What the hell? Apparently Eji Aonuma (Current producer of the Zelda series) has confirmed Ganondorf...and Sheik for Brawl. Ganondorf was kind of a given, but Sheik is unexpected (And weird). Mini-Megaton?

Yeah, when I saw this I was like "Now Mecha should be happy".
But yeah, it looks kick-ass.

Hopefully Ganondorf won't be a clone anymore. Though Sheik is definitely going to be nerfed. Also, I would NEVER trade online play for the adventure mode they described. Online play is everything to me in Brawl, it'll give it infinite replay for me if I have an unlimited amount of opponents.

So how about that smoke bomb? These new items look like they're gonna be a riot.

Ike's special moves.

His up special is very reminiscent of Kirby's. It also states that he's a heavy character. Definitely not a Marth clone.

What interests me more is the fact heavy character won't always flinch now. Maybe Bowser will have a chance of being good.
