@ BenKenobi88 whoa i totally forgot, yes he was that massive its been so long since i played that game i may go and play it now lol

There definately is nothing more frightening than Jazz Hands

hm. Didn't know that Metaknight wasn't a villain villain. well then, maybe there is a twist, but I still think it is mostly villains against heroes. I don't think you will play as the villains in this part of the game. There might be a secondary story mode for the villains unlocked through this mode though. That would make more sense then seeing Ganondorf fight alongside Link, which I don't think would EVER happen.

But we never thought we'd see Bowser fighting alongside Mario, until Super Mario RPG...

I wonder if you can chose your character in Subspace Emissary, or if it's got predetermined sections for all (initially available) characters. Figured at first it would be the former, but all the cutscenes and how they emphasize it's always Peach and Zelda in the cages are making me think it'll be the latter.

Yeah, I think you'll be forced to play as certain characters for the most part...which I'm fine with.

I sort of doubt that.  With the amount of stuff you have to unlock in SSB games, there is no way you could do it if you were forced to only use one of a few characters in adventure mode.  I don't think it's something we are going to know about until the game's release though.

I would assume we can still play all the single player modes from the earlier games, and that Subspace Emissary is only one of many new adventure modes. At least the way it's phrased on the site seems to me it's only one of many, but that may be wishful thinking. =P

Hmm.. maybe more come available once you unlock the characters for them? That would keep the suspense of not knowing exactly who the hidden characters are (as if all of us won't spoil ourselves the day the game's out anyway ^^), but wouldn't leave them out of the single player goodness.

Remember how there was a rumour a few months ago about Brawl using the Havok physics engine? It's now been confirmed that it uses some Havok middleware, although it still might be graphics, AI, etc rather than physics.

I am pretty sure it IS physics. Check this link out:

It could just be a new engine Sakurai's team developed, but I would say that they are, at least, using the Havok Physics engine.
