I wonder what alternate costumes they'll have for the Ice Climbers...

and oh God, I hope that they do not do Ness as an "alternate outfit" for Lucas >_<

For alternate outfits, they should have Link to look more like the older Links (not OoT, for GOD'S SAKE!) and it's about time Mario got the Fire Power outfit >_>

Eww. 'Nuff said. That's like giving Mario a green outfit and calling him "Luigi" (or vice versa).

I'm expecting good updates tomorrow. It's been a while since I was ecstatic about an update.

[Mr. Z]

Nothing special today either. Just some more crap about the controls.
Though, I'm glad you can turn off jumping with "up" now. I had a lot of problems with the normal upward attack in SSBM.

[Animus01]

Yeah. Today wasn't much of an update. I was hoping there was another update alongside it, but there isn't.

[The Satellite]

Meh, new assist trophy, return of something we knew, big deal.

The custom controls look good, but I already liked the controls.

Samus has the dark suit color scheme from Metroid Prime 2. No pics, but I also saw Sonic with a color scheme of Shadow the Hedgehog, and Peach with a red dress. Other colors for Sonic are some shoe changes... not much.

[Animus01]

Dark Suit Samus! I hope Nintendo is ditching some of the made-up suit colors (pink Samus??? ) in exchange for suit colors based on other games. Except... I can't imagine Dark Samus (the Phazon-suited doppelganger, not Samus's suit) having Samus's firepower. Nice addition to the suits, though.

...That means Shadow won't be in Brawl.

Today's update is nothing!...yet. That's strange,they always use to update the Dojo at this time.
THIS IS BLASPHEMY! THIS IS MADNESS!

EDIT:

pink Samus???

Zero Mission gravity suit. But the purple and brown ones are made up.
And speaking of Purple and Brown:


EDIT2: Now there's an update. Some crap about widescreen,and...THE ORIGINAL DONKEY KONG THEME REMIXED!! WOOHOO

(Note: The Quote function is acting completely broken for me. Sorry, I had to omit them. Anyway...)

Moonwhisper:

Sorry, but at this point it seems likely that Link will get an OoT-style palette swap, unless they deem that it is too similar to the TP outfit and forgo it. After all, Zelda seems to have gotten an OoT version of her costume. However, TP Zelda is so dark that it's pretty much purple. I can see enough of a difference to tell them apart.

And if Link gets an OoT color scheme, the simple solution is just don't use it.

Animus:

I wouldn't worry too much about useless color schemes. Generally, they use "made-up" costume colors to fill in the spare color slots once they've used up all the "legitimate" color schemes. So, they will probably be dropping the most redundant and/or unpopular "made-up" costume colors first.

Hmm... pink Samus... Perhaps even though she's a battle-hardened warrior with a symbiotic life form within her, Samus still sometimes feels the need to feel pretty?... >.>; ...If that's the case, the need will be easily filled now that we have Zero Suit Samus.

For that matter, I wonder whether Zero Suit Samus will even HAVE alternate colors? If only one Smash Ball can ever appear per match, then it won't be possible to have more than one Zero Suit Samus on the screen.

(note: all details I've mentioned about Samus' background are strictly hearsay, as I haven't played the games.)

Moldorm:

Well, depending on what we consider viable as "news," I think the possibility of additional 3rd party characters has already been shot down, so Shadow the Hedgehog never had a chance in the first place. Specifically, I believe Sakurai was quoted as stating that no 3rd party company would receive more than one character appearance in Brawl. That means Sega has "used it up" by giving it to Sonic (which is quite understandable, if you ask me).



Anyway, lastly, I wanted to comment on the control customization. I am happy to see that the Gamecube controller will be getting customizability functions on all of its buttons.

I am, however, unhappy to note that the GC analog controller and the Wiimote D-pad aren't customizable. This worries me not so much because I want to assign button functions to the GC analog stick or the Wiimote D-pad... actually, I want to assign Wiimote D-pad functions to the GC D-pad. Yes, it's still possible that this function will be available, but it seems somewhat less likely. Oh well... *crosses fingers* I really want to use my Hori digital GC controller in place of the sideways Wiimote...and now that I think about it, digital movement controls would also allow me to use my Soul Calibur II arcade stick.

SMASH BROS.!!!

Well, 2 updates today, neither of which can probably make a lengthy discussion. I'll probably stick to standard screen size, since my TV isn't widescreen.

You should.

[Octorockoncrack]

I've gotton word from my friends that one of Link's alternate costumes is Dark Link. That would be so cool to play as that.

That's true. Look at this here.

Forgot to reply to this.

Ahem. We saw it coming. All Wii titles like this have widescreen.
