Release Dates

December 3, 2007 (NA)

Today's update is a new arrangement of the ending of Yoshi's Story.

It sounds great, the musical quality in this game is going to be amazing. And of course, this provides further proof of Yoshi being in SSBB, but that was never really in question.

they should release yoshi story on vc...i want that right now..btw WHERE IS NESS!?@@?!!!

hmmm you know, this is the first time I noticed this:

the "how to play" link has a picture of a wiimote... wiimote controls for Smash Bros?

You missed the final smash, which is listed on their front page. It might also be interesting to list the artists that have been lined up to compose for the game. Seeing as how the list of those are actually pretty complete. Oh and Kirby is missing from your list.

Oh the super scope, I have a real one :) The games were pretty fun too.


Here are the trailers so far.

Had a hell of a time tracking a good youtube version of the second one. There are a lot of Fan made stuff.

It's likely.

Why would one of the biggest games for the Wii not allow for some Wiimote controls?  It saves gamers money, cause they don't have to go out and buy GC or Classic controllers.

If they used the nunchuck with the Wiimote, they would have all the buttons one needs to play Super Smash Bros.  There just wouldn't be a right joystick to do instant smashes like in the GC version, but that wasn't necessary.  And there wouldn't be analog shoulder triggers, but buttons for shields works fine...there wasn't much use for adjustable shields in SSBM.

That said, I'll probably stick to GC or Classic controllers anyway.  Especially if they tack motion controls onto the Wiimote configuration...that'd make it too different.  But we'll have to wait and see.  Maybe motion controls would work...

Oops, I thought I forgot someone.

And no, I didn't forget the Final Smash. You pick up the item called the Smash Ball, and that enables you to do your Final Smash when you want apparently.

EDIT:  Alright, I threw the Musicians on there for now...it makes the post so huge though!  I guess SSBB deserves a big post. 

I like this thread, great work BenKenobi88.

Man I can't wait for this game!

Having a Mii-based charater creation mode would kick a$$, especially since online codes are going to be based on Miis.
