Olimar not unlockable? WTH?

Of course he's not. DOJO doesn't reveal 1st and 2nd party unlockables until after the Japanese release.

 

[Dragodynamite]

That character select screen and disc are probably fakes. >_> Olimar not unlockable? WTH? and Zelda's icon is different then the one at the Dojo. Also, why is CF unlockable?

Manaphy's AWESOME. Also, I wonder if this means you can play as the Alloys?

not at all, and you dont wanna play as them, they dont have special moves or anything!!
they got 1,4 % chance of being playable, and i wouldnt rely on that

 

[Ledian_X]

Captain Falcon, Luigi, Jigglypuff and Ness will probably be unlockable because they were on the N64. History's repeating itself. I have a theory that they are unlockable like they were then and you have to save them in SE.

Read my post.



Please also read my last post.


And for anyone else:


UK & IRELAND ARE GETTING WI-FI.

BRAWL WILL BE RELEASED ON DECEMBER 3RD, 2007.

 

[Ledian_X]

Wow. Someone needs to switch to decaf. Look. Theere's probably a reason for this so don't get bent out of shape. Relax. take a pill. Go to Tahiti. Play in the casino and come back refreshed.

Now then, the rational reason is that they probably need to set things up for UK and Ireland. Get everything all set up. The ganme'll be wifi everywhere. In fact, there are some game cases of Phantom Hourglass I have seen without the wifi logo. Yet it is wifi. So, there you are then.

Bottom line. RELAX, KIDS!

Here's one thing that I feel that could disprove R.O.B. as playable, same argument people were using on Stafy, and people thought it made sense then. What is one thing that all playable characters have in common? That is right they all have arms and legs/feet (Kirby and Metaknight have stub arms and do have feet). Now R.O.B. has arms, but were are his feet/legs? Sure he can jump with the jets he has, but dashing, low attacks, etc.? How would his aerials work? For all of them he would spin in that direction then attack with his arms? The basic design of the character just wouldn't work as a playable character. Also, can anyone think up an even halfway decent Special moveset? I have not seen anyone even propose one, anywhere. If you have please give me the link to it.

The picture is fake for some simple reasons:
1. Shouldn't Olimar's name be Pikmin and Olimar?
2. Zelda and Shiek are in the same box. Why isn't ZSS and Samus?
3. Zelda's name is only on there.
4. No ? boxes are on there.

 

[woot21]

Well I found an interesting link on brawlcentral's forums. This is video footage of the starting character select screen, for what appears to be classic mode. Take it as you will, but I say we need actual gameplay footage, and a video of the final roster the guy supposedly gave.

Yes, because they would give the country that isn't getting Wi-Fi 5 updates about it. And seeing as we get exactly the same game as Europe, then it's pretty obvious that they just forgot to put the logo in.

And I'm afraid that your qoute is incorrect. Should it not say "BRAWL WILL BE RELEASED ON DECEMBER 3RD, 2007 IN THE AMERICAS."?

 

[GhostAnime]

I'm just glad I don't live in the PAL region in general.

for anybody that cares: Sakurai is 37.

 

[Elementman-Novapoke]

Of course it's not true. We have had EVERY SINGLE Wi-Fi update, so why would they give us those and then say "Oh, sorry, you're not getting Wi-Fi"?

It's called common sense.

I second that motion.

Thanks for the links Burninator and woot21.

Sakurai looks really young.

Also, as Blazios said, we wouldn't receive all the wi-fi updates and then not get wi-fi, would we?​

1. Shouldn't Olimar's name be Pikmin and Olimar?
2. Zelda and Shiek are in the same box. Why isn't ZSS and Samus?
3. Zelda's name is only on there.
4. No ? boxes are on there.

1. It's too big to fit in the box. There will be more boxes later, so it's likely that the boxes will get even smaller.
2. You can only becaome ZSS with the Smash Ball. Also, her name is Samus, regardless of which suit she wears.
3. See # 1.
4. They will be added as the game progresses.

One more thing about ZSS. I believe that there will be a part of the Subspace Emissary where you need to play as Samus in the Zero Suit, and doing so will allow you to choose ZSS from the start of the match. If this is true, it would ease the annoyance of the many players that want to actually be able to USE all the characters without having the Smash Ball activated as an item.

Also, I didn't expect my small observation to cause such an uproar. It was probably just an oversight on the part of the guy in charge of the British DOJO!!, people.

 

[GhostAnime]

You can only becaome ZSS with the Smash Ball.

don't be so sure about that just yet. there may be a way to use her at the start of the match via holding a button during the stage.

I updated my last post with my theory on that matter.

 

[GhostAnime]

oh, I see.

with Sakurai's mindset (we think about everything!) I'm sure he'd find someway to start out as a character that was hyped right in the very first trailer, anyway.

Yes he would, we think. As you said, it is Sakurai, and he is crazy, we know that. So don't be surprised either way.

If there are 35 characters, remove Takamaru, add Geno, and that's my list. Oh yeah, remove Pikmin & Olimer and add Pikmin & Olimar. As well as removing C. Flacon and adding Captain Falcon.

 

[GhostAnime]

OLIMER!

I'm sorry but that's just an awesome name.

 

[AerialAce!]

A few quick questions to sow the seeds of doubt about this supposed game disk and its owner.

1. The guy obviously has a decent-quality screen capture device. Look at his other videos (all Melee, from what I can tell). Why is he using a low-quality camera?
2. Why is there no match footage or anything more interesting than a character select screen?
3. Why didn't he use a character we haven't seen the color variations for?
4. Why classic mode, and not the far-more-interesting Subspace Emissary?
