~~~~~SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL COUNTDOWN THREAD~~~~~

Well, the countdown officially RE-begins. Super Smash Bros. Brawl has released in Japan and is en-route for a U.S. release! (Sorry U.K. Gotta wait till June... Sad

)

This is the countdown until the U.S. release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. There are 35 characters in the roster and there are 35 days until the release. This countdown will feature all the playable characters in Brawl and their apperance in Nintendo's history and all of that good stuff... So if you don't want the roster spoiled, LEAVE NOW!!!!!!!

Alright, with that out of the way, let's let the countdown begin, shall we?

DAY: 35

CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Wolf o' Donnell

First Appearance in Nintendo's History: StarFox 64

mygamecube2's thoughts:

I honest didn't think Wolf would make it in Brawl, but he did. The leader of the StarWolf team, and rival of Fox McCloud, Wolf makes his appearance in Brawl as a playable character. He marks character #35.

Not much is known about his moveset in Brawl, as of now, but he has a blaster of his own that is slow, but powerful. His Final Smash is also the same as Fox's, the Landmaster. The difference in his Landmaster is that it's red, unlike Fox's blue, and it seems to be more powerful...

Wolf o Donnell, to me, shouldn't have got in over Krystal...but what can you do? Krystal has been confirmed as a taunt for Fox, instead...

Well there ya go, folks. Wolf, character #35! Which character on the Smash Bros. Brawl roster should you expect tomorrow? You'll have to wait and see. Wink

35 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY: 34

CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Toon Link (Wind Waker Link)

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

mygamecube2's thoughts:

I personally didn't care about Toon Link too much. I even kinda doubted he'd make it in Brawl anyway, but he's in and he's a playable character of Brawl's roster of selectable characters. Toon Link is character #34.

Apparently, he's a big clone of Link. He shares the same Final Smash as Link, but there seems to be differences in their Boomerangs. Toon Link's Boomerang seems to be a regular one, while Link's is the Gale Boomerang.

Bombs are diffrent in design, but they seem to do the exact same thing. Up+B is of course, the spinning move. Seems to have a lots of recover time, and it goes pretty darn high. Higher than regular Link's even...

Well, another day gone... I wonder which character awaits us tomorrow?

34 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY: 33
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Peach

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Super Mario Bros.

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Of course Peach was going to make it back, right? Peach makes her second apperance, and she's battle ready!

B: Toad
UP+B: Peach Parasol
Side+B: Peach Bomb
Down+B: Vegetable
Final Smash: Peach Blossom

She seems to be improved from her Melee status, which is pretty good. I never doubted Peach would return. She also looks beautiful with those graphics. (I think I know what you're thinking. NO. It's not like that. Razz

)

Well, another character down the road. Who's it gonna be tomorrow?

33 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY: 32
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Robot

First Appearance in Nintendo's History: Um....He was part of an attachment for teh NES, lol??????

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Um...when I first saw this guy on the Final Roster, part of me died inside. But, that was then, and this is now. I'm over it now. He's not a clone of anyone and he has an original moveset. (Thank god) ROB better feel honored to be in Smash Bros. He's lucky, lol.

(Um...I don't know wheter to refer to him as "it" or "him". Maybe "her"?)

B: Robo Beam
Side+B: Arm Roter
Up+B: Robo Burner
Down+B: Gyro
Final Smash: Diffusion Beam

His/her/it's movesets involves lazers, hovering, and other robotic features. It's pretty effective. His Final Smash brings out some lazers from his eyes and delivers some pain, without knockback. He's an interesting character, no doubt...

Day 32 is over with. Tomorrow, we'll only have one more month to wait. We can get through this!!!!

32 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY: 31

CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Bowser

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Super Mario Bros.

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Ahh. Bowser. How you've been in our lives for many many years. Playing the role of bad guy, trying to steal the princess, yet failing everytime... Welcome back to Brawl!

B: Fire Breath
Up+B: Whirling Fortress
Side+B: Flying Slam
Down+B: Bowser Bomb
Final Smash: Giga Bowser

I'm glad Bowser's back in Brawl, and he seems to be buffed up BIG TIME. He's probably been doing some serious training. All of that training will pay off in Brawl, lol.

...Nevertheless, Bowser's back. While I don't main Bowser, I'll sure be giving him a try to see how differently he plays from his Melee counterpart.

31 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!

DAY 30
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Pokemon Trainer

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Pokemon Red/Blue

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Pokemon Trainer caught me by surprise when he was revealed on Dojo. I really was wondering how he'll play out. When I found out you could switch from Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard, I was instantly hooked. One of my favorites.

B:
Squirtle - Water Gun
Ivysaur - Bullet Seed
Charizard - Flamethrower

Side+B:
Squirtle - Withdraw
Ivysaur - Razor Leaf
Charizard - Rock Throw

Up+B:
Squirtle - Waterfall
Ivysaur - Vine Whip
Charizard - Fly

Down+B:
Pokemon Trainer - Pokemon Change

Final Smash: Triple Finish

Pokemon will be one of the characters I try out first. From what I've heard, he's pretty fun to play with. Only 30 more days to find out.

What character will await us tomorrow?

30 DAYS LEFT!!!!!!!!!

DAY: 29
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Meta Knight

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Kirby's Adventure

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Meta Knight is my favorite Kirby character. So cool, so badass, I know. Anyway, I'm glad he's become playable in Brawl. You'd better believe I'm going to play as him often!

B: Mach Tornado
Side+B: Drill Rush
Up+B: Shuttle Loop
Down+B: Dimentional Cape
Final Smash: Galaxia Darkness

Meta Knight is quick, but pretty weak. He doesn't have too many powerful attacks, so you'll have to rely on fast tactics in order for you to gain the upper-hand. Be fast and act fast!

29 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!

DAY: 28
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

King Dedede

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Kirby Dream Land

mygamecube2's thoughts:

King Dedede, the ruler of Dreamland, and arch-rival of Kirby. King Dedede is mostly viewed as a lazy oaf. Pretty clumsy too...

B: Inhale
Side+B: Waddle Dee Toss
Up+B: Super Dedede Jump
Down+B: Jet Hammer
Final Smash: Waddle Dee Army

I haven't played any Kirby games whatsoever. (Call me crazy, I know) But I've seen video's of Dedede, and it seems his moves are based primarily off of his boss battle appearances. All his moves are the same except for one, and that's his Jet Hammer. I mean, come on? A mechanized hammer, lol? Maybe that's a hint at the next Kirby game? Using a mechanized hammer to finally, once and for all, defeat Kirby???

Naa...It'll never happen. Dedede is like Bowser. A evil king that always fails.

28 DAYS LEFT!!!!!!!

DAY: 27
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Marth

First Appearance in Nintendo's History: Fire Emblem

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Marth is one of my melee mains, so I'm happy to see him back into Brawl. Although, there are a few changes to Marth, so I'll have to adapt...

B: Shield Breaker
Side+B: Dancing Blade
Up+B: Dolphin Slash
Down+B: Counter
Final Smash: Critical Hit

Marth is the main character of the very first Fire Emblem game, and is welcomed back into Brawl. His critical hit packs a whallop, but it's easy to dodge, and chances are, if you miss, you'll go caneering off-screen, so watch it!

27 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!

DAY: 26
CHARACTER OF THE DAY:

Snake

First Apperance in Nintendo's History: Metal Gear

mygamecube2's thoughts:

Solid Snake, from the Metal Gear series!! You might be thinking to yourself, "WTF IS A SONY CHARACTER DOING IN A NINTENDO GAME???!!!" Well, if you check back on history, the Metal Gear series wasn't always on Playstation. Sure, most of them were, but there were a few instances where some Metal Gear games were developed for a Nintendo system. Solid Snake, made his first appearance on the SNES. (Surprise!) Soon the series later went to the Playstation, but a re-make of Metal Gear Solid was made for the Gamecube, dubbed "Twin Snakes".

B: Hand Grenade
Side+B: Remote Controlled Missile
Up+B: Cypher
Down+B: C4
Final Smash: Grenade Launcher

Snake was the first 3rd party announced for Brawl, and he blew the door open for other 3rd party choices for Brawl. (A certain blue hedgehog, maybe?) Snake overall looks like a cool character to play. I'll surely try him out and see his strengths and weaknesses, in...

26 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!
