That link leads to a "sorry can't find the item" page.

This link however, leads to Brawl.

I have no clue why I fell for this.

It *WAS* legit, a special pre-order that quickly sold out.

I'm sure you can wait a lil longer can't you?

I don't need you guys getting any practise in before I get the game, do I? :wink:

I maxed out the kill counter in Melee.

People didn't want to play 3 vs 1 matches against me because of all the **** I would talk when I won (rightly so when 3 people can't stop you).

I'm not even boasting. These were facts.

It's not that. It was a preorder, but they said the maximum price was $20. Then they took it back, pretending they never said it, cheating people out of their money when they said "HOLY **** IT'S BRAWL FOR $20 INSTEAD OF $50?! I AM ON THAT LIKE STINK ON A PIG."

I reiterate, Wal*Mart is pure evil.

You are just some kind of Fighting Game God aren't you?

I'm just gonna spectate a couple of matches of you first then CP in that case :wink:

Wal*Mart is the devil. What did you expect?

Ah well. You didn't lose any money right? Do the American thing and sue them for false info or summat, and sit tight till it is released.

They still haven't announced its release here yet

News Credits: 1 · by **Sherade** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 5:12 pm

Dude, it isnt the American thing, it's the smart thing.
Like the dude who drank Red Bull, jumped out of a window, and sued them becasue it didn't give him wings. He got..erm...a cool million. I think.

Anyhoo, I'm sure in Brawl, I caould kill all over with Samus just like always.

I'll play a SS game when they put the ninja turtles in it. Till then I won't bother with those games. And I still don't understand how you can deal more than 100% damage to someone.

You underestimate just how much this ability to sue the pants off of anything that moves has influenced my decision to move to the US :wink:

Turtles might be a good idea. Or at least one. I think putting all four in would be a little silly. Then again, I don't think the overall look of the ninja turtles fits in with the rest of the cast...

News Credits: 1 · by **Sherade** » Tue Jan 15, 2008 4:53 pm

The Turtles don't fit?
You do seem to forget Snake.

News Credits: 38 · by **TheMuffin** » Tue Jan 15, 2008 7:31 pm

Bingo. Just imagine the abilities. Long range weapons could be throwing stars or grappling hook. Grab move would have you tripping the guy, then slamming down on them back first. Oh man the possibilities are endless!

News Credits: 1 · by **Sherade** » Tue Jan 15, 2008 7:37 pm

Yeah, sounds right.
Of course it'll only be complete when Optimus or Megs is in there somewhere.

It seems the wait time is a bit longer, as Smash Bros has been delayed until March 9th: http://wii.ign.com/articles/845/845530p1.html

Dangit :-(

No, not really. The Ninja Turtles were designed as comic characters. Solid Snake was designed as a video game character.

That's kind of how they're chosen.

The turtles have been in more video games than Snake. Way more. And all of them were beat-em-ups. Sounds like they fit way more in the game than Snake.
