On a lower note, MLG had tried to negotiate having Brawl on the circuit with Nintendo, and for whatever reason Nintendo keeps refusing, even when MLG offered to just have it a side event. Time for the #FreeBrawl ? I'm all one unit and one community and Smash is great and all that, but I feel like we're asking for too much, but my competitive watching started with Brawl streams, it was silly and there was hype and hilariousness.

TBH I like Project M the most out of all competitive smash. I looks prettier and there's a lot of character variety. Brawl is just MK mirrors and Melee is usually Fox, Falco, Marth, and the occasional Jiggs or Cap. Boring.

For fighting games I like SSB in particular. They put a twist on the fighting game genre that deviates from the usual health bar system. It makes the game funner to watch from a spectator's PoV since there's no strict level of damage that guarantees a KO, and when they eventually do it's done in a tense turning point of the match.

I like Yoshi; especially during that challenge where you have to punch a sandbag and smack it with a bat as far as possible.
As far as character rosters go I can only assume Nintendo's taking surveys/polls to determine which characters to cycle in/out.

I hate Yoshi. In Smash and in everything else, he's so annoying. I don't see how they could possibly leave him out though, he's one of the original 12 and they've been in every game since. You could make a case for Ness not coming back because he was apparently supposed to be replaced by Lucas in Melee, and they're clones in Brawl and since Sakurai said he want to trim the fat, it's likely that one of them will be removed.

I doubt any of them will be removed. I think the only one at stake from Brawl itself is Snake, everyone else is coming back. . . Probably. I CAN SEE THE FUTURE OKAY? Yeah, but that New Yoshi's Island ending, doe. Time paradoxes. People upset. Yoshi isn't going anywhere, but it's an absolute mystery why he hasn't been revealed yet. . . ? We shall see!

I always liked to drop my Yoshis to their death as I overcame large jumps in Super Mario World.

If nintendo won't let fox and falco be overpowered, we will do it ourselves.

I think he won against Pink Fresh's Lucas in Grand Finals, so literally every character in the game is viable at least. P:M is far better balance wise than any other Smash game so far.

So they are going to show off a new character and give the release date at least, right?

I just realized how ridiculous it is to have Toon Link/Normal Link or Mario/Dr Mario in the same game. That has to be the Hallmark of a legendary character; when you have the same character twice in a fighting game. That's the equivalent of Johnny Cage and... Johnny Cage dressed as Duke Nukem being in Mortal Kombat as separate characters with slightly different movesets.

This is a mascot fighting game after all.
