I don't even need to play one second of this game before knowing it is perfect. This fact is due to the Smash Bros. Dojo. Any doubts I have had about this game have already been laid to rest.
My doubts (and their resolutions):
1) Single player could suck as hard as ever (Subspace Emissary squashed that)
2) Not enough new characters that I'd like to play with (pfffth, that's right out the window)
3) Online could be poorly implemented (holy crap, they thought of everything regarding online play, including how to handle dropouts and allowing unlocked character selection)
4) The music could be annoying and repetitive (this game has some of the best music customization options [short of complete custom soundrack] I've ever seen and a wide range of song choices)
This is going to be a perfect game.
My End of 2008 Hardware Predictions (console only):
Wii : 50 million
360: 28 million
PS3: 24 million
These predictions were made on January 3rd and won't be revised
