"Predictions on Super Smash Bros. Melee2 for the revolution?"

Before I begin talking about this I have to say that I'm a little ashamed talking about how much I play SSBM for Gamecube. That and Halo2 is all I ever actually do at home, but that's still one to many games in comparison to any other girl I've seen. Maybe some girls occasionally play a game, but I love these. I actually even joined a tournament and got third place in Lan Party Domain(would of scored higher if the lv chosen for the semi finals wasn't Flatzone-_-).


Allright, I'll start with the damn topic already=/

Since the Revolution promises to not charge for online play I know that ALL the fans of the first one will buy the Revolution and pick up SSB immediately. What do you guys think they'll make the online play like? Just a standard beat em up tournament style? Remember that nintendo likes to be different=/

The only characters that I really think will be added to the new game are Captian Olimar(Pikimin), Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, and Wario. State your opinion on that, but that's what I really think. They'll probably be around 10 new characters though(possibly more).


Off topic, I play as Peach(1st), Yoshi(2nd), and Jigglypuff(3rd) in the first one. Debate on how one of them sucks and we'll just see once SSBM online comes out.=/

It is gonna be online.

Reggie for playable character.

It needs to be online.

I'm not buying another purely offline one.

Not to tell people apart, just to support the human, personal, element of your opponents.
So it's less like a normal offline game.

Although I figure with tight data transfer and a decent bandwidth, the game could cope with lots of players in a big level. Could be fun.

Although it'll probably be 4-at-a-time, so all the character customisation wouldn't be needed.

SSBM online would be superb.

(Although still a good way of doing it).

Hehehe, it's funny because it's true.
The first thing you'd customise him with would be a big shiny moustache.


It's starting to sound very Barbie now - collect all the costumes!

Maybe if you win a big enough tournament the prize could be mario's Malibu Dream Home.

I'm sure he could pull ken if he had that.

Hey that'd be nice. They could make it like Kumete(or something) Mode from Virtual Fighter4. Online if you up in ranking you could get different accessories and outfits to customise your characters.

And about Captain Olimar from Pikimin, I always thought he would pick a pikimin from the ground and toss it at the ememy and it would stick to them. Maybe depending on what pikimin it is it could either slow them down, weight them down, leech health from them slowly. There's a bunch of possiblities.

Now that I'm thinking I'd also like to see King DeeDeeDee.=/
I wouldn't actually pick him but it'd be fun to kick his a s s.

Thats a fair point. If Ninty are serious about going online with this game, surely customisation of character models has got to be number one priority. Why stick to preset costumes, when you could change everything and everything? You could stick a pair of Cowboy boots on Pikachu, or give Capt. Falcon the handbag that'd suit his campness so well :D

As I see it, if you're going online with a game, you should have as many options in selecting a character as possible.

If part of the beauty of online gaming is that you can play against hundreds of different people, it'd suck if half of them were Link.

So I figure there should be as many characters, and characters' outfits, as possible, to minimise the dull standardised player representations that deny the human individuality that makes online better than bots.


There's only one rule:
Anyone who picks birdo must be mauled by all the other players.

Preferably in real life.
