ORIGINAL POST:

Nintendo has recently announced at E3 that the next installment of Super Smash Brothers which will come out for Wii. No word yet on just how many characters will be returning but Nintendo has confirmed 5 new characters including one that hasn't been seen on any Nintedo games ever too my knowledge they are:

# Pit (Kid Icarus)

# Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)

# Zero Suit Samus (the blue "no-suit" Samus from Metroid: Zero Mission)

# Metaknight (Kirby)

# Wario (Wario)

Also apparently making an aperence in this game, a nintendog.

EDIT: they also said that there is a possibility that other 3rd party game characters will be included (ie: Maybe Sonic the Headgehog)

Not that I plan on ever getting a Wii, but the idea of Sonic vs. Mario is great.

Oh, and Solid Snake against Yoshi...

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the equation for why Super Smash Brothers: BRAWL will be the greatest game ever:

Kirby

+

Solid Snake

=

KIRBY WITH A MULLET.

E3 is over. Nintendo won. The last guy was hard.

[GoGo Yubari]

As a Smash Brothers Melee afficionado, I am fucking STOKED for this game. I didn't think they could possibly top MetaKnight, and then SOLID SNAKE showed up.

But Bowser better fucking be in it or heads will roll, as I am a master of Gratuitous Bowser Style.

[Mysterio2000X]

God damnit, now I'm going to have to get a Wii.

And what the hell is a nintendog?

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

Hopefully, Smash Brothers Brawl won't be to Smash Brothers Melee what Smash Brothers Melee was to the original Smash Brothers- slightly less awesome, yet still amazing.

I've already decided to go for the Nintendo Wii since Sony opted to lie once again to its customers (no two versions ala Microsoft?) and put up an insanely steep price tag.

If they pull off online for this bad boy, I will be in a coma until launch day.

For those who have seen the video or read about it, Solid Snake + box + SSB arena = comedic GOLD.

Sonic... VS... Mario

Tears of joy.

So... who hasn't been in any Nintendo games?

[Guest clintcasey]

Snake. I guess you could argue that since the original Metal Gear game was released for computer and eventualy ported to the NES that the series has been on a nintendo console before, (although that was nearly 20 years ago) but Solid Snake wasn't in that game.

[Kaney]

I've never really been fond of Super Smash Bros, but Snake, and possibly Sonic, would make it all worthwhile. Sonic vs Mario, all the time. ALL the time.

I dunno if I understand you or not, but did you say Solid Snake wasn't in the original Metal Gear?

And if we're accepting ports, Snake was on Gamecube in the remake of MGS, The Twin Snakes.

Mulleted Kirby? I wanted Smash Bros anyways, but bright green Kirby with a mullet (Y)

And possibly Sonic too..I just hope they ditch Ness & Captain Falcon though.

[Guest clintcasey]

Yeah, but Earthbound was GREAT!!! And F-Zero was also good. Instead of ditching Ness they should instead improve his moveset to be on par with everybody else since they left him too weak. Plus they never let him use his Special Psychic attack that you get to name from the game and that was like his ultimate attack. Captain Falcon can stay too, but if they want to let him go I wouldn't misss him.

Yeah, Snake wasn't in the original Metal Gear, his debut was in Metal Gear Solid. I don't know if we're accepting ports or not though, I don't but I guess that a matter of opinion.

...

I'm fairly sure Solid Snake was in Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 : Solid Snake. The clue is in the name. Unless there's some sort of conspiracy I've missed, Solid Snake took on Gray Fox in the first one, Big Boss in the second one, Liquid Snake in MGS and so on. Feel free to enlighten me though, I have been wrong about these things before >_>

[Guest clintcasey]

Never played Earthbound, just saw Ness as unneccesary as Earthbound wasn't released outside Japan, and only just has it's sequel on the way.

[apsham]

Yes, it was Solid Snake in the original series, as he fouight Big Boss in both of them. And of course it counts as a port.
