Forums - Nintendo - Super Smash Bros. Brawl Official Updates

Well I like all the updates, I know that you can't get gold everytime, but the site just told us stuff we already know. I find that underwhelming.

I think it's cool that they made the clawshot reach to cliffs a little easier...people will use the move more often then...it'll make the game more interesting.
So apparently Zero Suit Samus's Up-B is just a grapple-like move, but regular Samus's grab will do the same thing.

Charging Link's Up-B is cool too.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

No, it told us new stuff.

1)  The boomerang pulls people around.

2)  You can now charge the Up-B move, making it stronger the longer you charge obviously.  That's new.

3)  The clawshot grabs onto ledges again, but now it automatically homes in on the nearest ledge to make things easier.

I don't really care if you think this update is underwhelming...be appreciative that Nintendo tells you anything about this game that isn't coming out until December.

i have to disagree with you dtewi, I like this update. I mean look at all those moves and wow, link has so many items. Where does he keep it all?



I seriously cannot understand the mentality of people who are disappointed by these updates... you cannot expect something super duper awesome every day, just the new screenshots to marvel at each day is enough... I don't know of a game in history that has had this much information and will have had this much information fed to the consumer until it's release.

It's the ultimate hype building tool... every week there is something that cracks major news websites... if you are let down then you've only got your own mentality at fault.

Charging the up-B might suck... Obviously it increases the power of the attack, but what if it also effects height? Little charge, little third jump. Big charge, too late to recover...? Who knows if that's the case...

If not, I think Link just got better... Using the boomerang in combination with the clawshot could be awesome...

No...I'm quite sure it means only on the ground...I'm sure pressing Up-B while in the air will immediately spin and lift you.

Crap, it looks like Link got even better. Gale Boomerang sets opponent nicely for the clawshot. The charge of the spin attack clearly reffers for the ground, as seen in the comparative screenshot.

Since this trailer is over a half a year old...some of us may have forgotten it.

It shows Link doing his B-up move in the air, and in the ground...he does both instantly, so he didn't take any time to charge his ground move.  He goes pretty high in the air with the midair B-up though, so it doesn't seem to be a problem.

Also...I've forgotten how awesome it is to see everyone...especially ZSS and Snake in gameplay footage.

Charging up Link's spin attack probably means it isn't as powerful if done straight away. Good news for me, since I get killed by it all too often. =P
