How many times is this? 5?

I think we can deal with it after waiting for Mass Effect to be released just recently (with it scheduled to be March/June).

And any updates on new characters yet? Watching that video makes me want to play the game more.

Kind of wish I didnt watch that video, now I cant wait to play the damn game even more...

Why do you taunt me so, Hitzel?

Based on that video, I think that the players are gonna have to be alot more aware of their surroundings this time around. The stages seemed to contain more motion, if that makes any sense.

You're referring on how the stages have more environmental hazards, correct? I think that's a brilliant concept, espicially putting the lava bunker on the Brinstar remake, that's always been my favorite level anyway.

I just want to see the revelation of all the other characters that will be available, and see whether or not our dream for Ridley will be revealed.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant actually And I agree, its a great concept. I, personally, think that it could be done on almost any multiplayer-centered game. For instance, I always liked the Halo maps that allowed to halep shape the environment (sometimes just by opening gates, but also by moving boxes around and whatnot). I think it just adds another level of entertainment. Especially in this case. Throw in a few assist trophies and pokeballs and you've got some crazy stuff happening on screen.

BTW, is it me, or do the pokeballs shown seem to be stronger or something? It was probably just the ones selected within the situations used, but still....

P.S.
We should hold a vigil for Ridley on March 8th.

I mean people would be happy that you can control three pokemon, now they have Groudon and they seemed to make Suicune's attack more useful and more powerful. Hopefully Zapdos still has the same move in which he practicially paralyzes and shocks everyone. But I want to see more of the Diamond/Pearl pokemon make an appearance, like Garchomp doing Dragon Rush or something like Tyranitar.

Zapdos was intense. Its been so long since I've really played a pokemon games, but there are ton that I can think of (not their names) that could provide some usefulness/uniqueness within the game. (BTW, I still think that you should be able to turn Magikarp into Gyrados XD)

That would actually be a good idea on Delfino Plaza or another water level. It flops in, then it releases Dragon Rage (you get damaged as well, but by about 1/2 as much and you have more resistance). And there are a bunch of good pokemon that could be released, but they need to have the popular pokemon be releasable *insert over used pokemon here*. They need Snorlax back though.

My two wishful thinking characters for Brawl are Espeon and Spyro. Ridley's a realistic hope, though. he has a huge fanbase.

XD I forgot all about Snorlax!! They DEFINITELY need him back.

I kind of wish that there was some way of knowing which pokemon you have in the ball. I know it ruins the "surprise factor" or whatever, but I think knowing would allow for alot more strategy and, therefore, alot more versatility in the kinds of attacks that new pokemon could use.
