Amen to that.

Yeah, I had heard about the majority of the secret characters before I got Melee, but that didn't ruin the game at all. Knowing they're in there isn't the same as having to do whatever it is you need to get them, and then getting to play with them and check out their moves.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 01-06-2008, 10:20 PM

The one thing I won't do however is play a demo of any kind. Seriously, if they threw one up on the Wii Shop tomorrow (no chance in hell, but still), I wouldn't touch it with a three foot pole. I don't want to ruin the experience of breaking out Smash Bros.

*Dr. Doom* · 01-07-2008, 02:16 AM

I'm happy to see a couple of these stages, specifically Yoshi's Island. That was always one of my favorite places to fight in Melee.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 01-07-2008, 02:19 AM

Indeed. That just brings a big 'ole smile to my face. That was actually the one Melee stage I wanted in Brawl, so everything else is just icing on the cake.

Super Mario World was the first video game I physically owned. I had played and beaten everything that came before, but it was on other people's machines, so SMW holds a special place for me.

You're....a fraud. A complete...fraud.

ANYWAYS, Yoshi's Island being one of the past stages is AWESOME! That was probably one of my most played Melee stages, along side Corneria, which was also on the list. The only other stage I could really ask for is Great Bay, but I'm still completely satisfied with the past stages made available.

That gives us a total of 19 confirmed new stages and 6 confirmed past stages, compared to the 26 new stages in Melee and 3 past stages.

The sheer amount of content in this game CONTINUES to amaze the hell out of me, and it's amazing that that's still happening.

ThirdMarioBro? More like "TooLateMarioBro." Seriously, man. Terrible.

"Great Bay" was on that translated list of songs posted a couple of days back. Now whether that refers to Majora's Mask, or to the Melee stage I don't know.

Hey, I was a poor kid. It was either mooch off rich friends for my Nintendo fix, or learn to entertain myself with my wanker at an earlier age. I chose the former. Heck, I played more games than they did so I have nothing to complain about.

Ra · 01-07-2008, 05:42 AM

At least you got to play the damn thing. Unlike me. I didn't even exist then...although I've always wanted to play video games from a young age. My parents didn't even want to buy me a '64 when I was 6...it lead to me being lost, confused, and only able to watch TV to quell my growing boredom...

You and me both. Last month I thought that they had run out of things to update about until now. Especially considering that Rainbow Ride and Yoshi's Island were favorite stages of mine whenever I got to play Melee...

*Mecha Cow* · 01-07-2008, 06:35 AM

And the best part is that even if you're somehow still not satisfied with the available stages, you can just create your own. Damn it, I want this game now.

*Cure* · 01-07-2008, 05:11 PM

I agree, bringing back all these past stages is off the meat rack, yo.

愛 · 01-07-2008, 07:52 PM

Off the meat rack? Don't message me on MSN anymore.

Peanut · 01-07-2008, 07:53 PM

I don't know WHERE he gets half of those damn sayings. Seriously.

I'm from the streets, man. That's how I roll.

愛 · 01-07-2008, 08:00 PM

Dude, I live in Philly, and I have NEVER heard that phrase...ever. You're making all of this up!

*Cure* · 01-07-2008, 08:03 PM

So what if I am?! I'm expressing my creativity by coming up with ridiculous phrases.

Nah, NoJ gives employees that time off every year.

I think she meant in the sense that the updates were crappy and of things no one cared about.

*Deathknight* · 01-07-2008, 08:29 PM

Really happy to see Corneria come back. Really disappointed to see Onett come back, I HATE that stage. I really don't like the layout of that level at all and I also greatly prefer traditional stages that have ledges. Hopefully there's going to be some more Melee stages coming back or even better, some 64 stages.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 01-07-2008, 10:16 PM

Well, what really makes me happy about the classic stages is that they will feel new again with the new characters, but more importantly, the music has been touched up. Like the Temple for example. Its got the same theme as before, same instrumentation, and everything--but the music team added a whole new section to the song before it transcends back to the familiar theme.

It's the little touches like that which I appreciate.
