SSB: Brawl update
"According to the French-based site LiveWii, Super Smash Bros. Brawl director Masashiro Sakurai commented on Japanese radio's "The Gaming Show" about various changes to the game's roster.
Sakurai announced Bowser Jr., the "Celda" version of Link, and Ridely, the archenemies of Samus, would all be joining the cast of characters for the Wii release.
This makes sense considering Bowser Jr. has had more prominent placement in various Mario sports titles, as well as being his dad's right hand man in New Super Mario Bros., and the "Celda" version of Link was seen on GameCube and now on the Nintendo DS in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Plus, with both Samus and Zero Suit Samus appearaning in SSBB, it makes sense her foe would get a chance to fight back.
We've also, unfortunately, learned of three current characters that will not be returning: The Ice Climbers, Mr. Game & Watch, and Young Link have no home in SSBB. We don't know who exactly will take their place just yet, but Sakurai stated he wants a roster 40 deep, with 1-2 more non-Nintendo characters.
Time to start the guessing game.
Just to sum it up:
-Bowser Jr. will be joining the game:
-Ridley will be joining the game:
-Windwaker style link (or they call it celda link) will be joining the game:
-Ice Climbers, Mr. Game & Watch, and Young Link will not be in the next game
-The developer wants to try and get 40 characters in it and 2 more non nintendo ones (sonic???)
I cant wait for this game to come out
