Ooooh. Nifty. Why did they do that, anyway? Wait, no. I can see it's for sorting them out by game. Righto.

[SL the Pyro]

Here's a new one; the Devil (some kind of blue goblin thing with red wings). Where he points is where the WHOLE STADIUM MOVES TOWARDS, so scramble to the other side. (I wonder how this would work on side-scrolling stages?)

[Chaltab]

Interesting updates.

Also, I fail to see how the states aren't awesome. Even the stages that don't look terribly exciting from a gameplay perspective are absolutely gorgeous (Yoshi's Island and Battlefield).

Bridge of Eldin, Castle Seige, and Lylat System all look incredible. Delphino Plaza also looks like an interesting stage.
I just hope they bring back Hyrule Temple and Great Bay from Melee.

[lord-of-shadow]

You say that even if they aren't terribly exciting from a gameplay (layout) perspective, the levels are asbolutely gorgeous. Now, let's skip the fact that that is a ridiculously flawed idea of what makes a good stage... And go on to the fact that you immediately afterwards said that you liked two stages from Melee that were interesting mostly because of their unique and fun layouts.

If you're going to say that gameplay doesn't matter and graphics can makeup for boring layouts, at least stick by it

[DarkJuno]

Well, looks like Samus can still save herself even if she loses her suit.

Due to this being a light update, I gotta say, despite being a fan edit...



<.<

[Hero of Legend]

You know, I'm damn glad Zero Suit Samus is sexy in Brawl instead of hideous like in Corruption. I know you only see her for like a couple of seconds in Prime 3, but talk about low-poly...

[D~N]

When do we see ZS Samus in Prime 3?

Also, on a related note, DJ's picture is hot. XP

At the very beginning of the game, when she's in her ship. There's videos on IGN.

[D~N]

Oh, the one with too much mascara? I remember that. Other than the make-up issues, I wouldn't say she looks too bad. Certainly not low-poly. But at the same time, definately not as good as Brawl's version.

[Iron Knuckle]

O_o; two characters in one week? If Sakurai keeps on going we'll have over 50 by the time the game is released. Ah well, Peach was pretty much expected. I notice that so far there's only a visual change. All of her Melee moves seem to return by the description.

[Fyxe]

Peach was technically revealed last week, in the video; this update was more for completion's sake than anything. Even so, it's a relief to see one of my favourites return virtually unchanged, and she still looks all grown-upish rather than her rather twee appearances in some recent Mario games (thanks to Sunshine).

As for Zero Suit Samus in Corruption, I haven't seen it, but it's likely they're using the same character model they used in Echoes, which is indeed a bit dated when compared to the one used in Brawl. They might update it before release.

[SL the Pyro]

Sooo... any speculation as to what Peach's Final Smash might be? Seriously, I have no idea.

[Fyxe]

Pixelated Mega Peach from Super Paper Mario.

Well, I would like that. XP It might be an ability from Super Princess Peach though, like 'angry' (essentially on fire) Peach.

[Ransom]

Sooo... any speculation as to what Peach's Final Smash might be? Seriously, I have no idea.

"being in another castle" seems to be a likely option.

Or something like Pit's final Smash, except it's an army of Toads. . .

[Iron Knuckle]

I was thinking of exactly the same thing JRPomazon.

Yes, Fyxe she was in the movie. That was what I meant with expected... I should have made that a bit more clear, but still 2 characters in a single week.

[JRPomazon]

Does anyone else think that there is a chance that another 3rd party character like Snake will make a appearance in this game?

Perhaps another Konami character?

[Ken the Wandering Soul]

Perhaps another Konami character?

Well, another good Konami character would be Django from Boktai, but I would not put too much hope in more third party members. You have to remember; Snake was added at the request of Hideo Kojima, so that does not guarantee another Konami character solely becuase of studio relations.

Quite personally, I think it is better to just think pessimistically about third-party characters until actual news is heard.

You may be right Ken. Although, it would be interesting to see some more of them.

[Fyxe]

Sakurai has mentioned that one or two more are possible, I wouldn't expect any more. Frankly it'll be a bit odd if Snake is the only one.

Given the wide variety of musical artists working on this game, a remarkable number of which are from Square Enix, I've got fairly high hopes that we'll see another third party character, and I have a strong feeling we might have a Square character in the mix.

The other likely alternatives are a Capcom, Hudson or Namco character. There's also a possiblity of a Sega character, and if there is, I think we know who'd be favourite.

Trying to guess who it will be is an endless task. There's obviously some more likely candidates, such as Megaman and Bomberman, but it could really be anybody. Hell, I wouldn't be hugely shocked to see Ryu from Street Fighter.

[Mirren]

If any other Konami character's making it in, it better sure as hell be Simon Belmont.

Yes he could whip Samus. Thus inspiring lots of fanboy fetish stories and pictures.

[Mirren]

Well, I was going on the fact that his combat is already 2D so it'd be easy to make moves, and he could use all of his weapons like the Holy Water, Cross, Axe etc.

But what you said works too, I guess...

I think what he said kinda scared me a little.

[Mirren]

Hey man, it's not my idea of a good time, but you know some of those Nintendo fanboys tend to get lonely.

Well, Samus could as well return the favor, Plasma Whip and all.

Incidentally, I predict stories and pictures about that too.

[Chiaki]

Alright! I'm really happy to see that Link has his updated arsenal (especially the Clawshot!) Plus it mentioned something about his tether recovery being easier to aim...I hope this means I'll be able to get more use out of it.

[D~N]

Pfft, hopefully the Gale Bomerang will be more usefull than in Twilight Princess *snicker-chuckle* Well, it already looks like it will be...And the bow looks better, too. Bombs look about the same, but the spin attack looks like it'll be fun!

[Splash]

I am so happy that they stuck with the Twilight Princess graphics on Link. ;3; His attacks look BEAUTIFUL.
Nice to see that the boomerang may actually be much more usefull, too.

[JRPomazon]

Hmm. . . I surprised they took this long to update Link's page.
