EDIT: LUIGI, Marth and Ness CONFIRMED FOR BRAWL~! (Slightly spoilerish NON-BLURRY pics inside! AND A VID!!) EDIT: Final Roster comparison! Megaman and Geno forever DECONFIRMED FOR BRAWL??
Genki-JAM | 9:47 PM on 01.28.2008 48 comments


(Can't believe I got the jump on this!)

Well here you have it folks! We all knew Ness was in, but this pic is just pure badassery!!



And then the one we were all questioning about returning is HERE!



Oh, and that's not all! Here's one more beauty for you all!



And last but not least, a new vid (possibly the game's intro?)!




EDIT: CONFIRMATION THAT MARTH AND NESS IS NOT AN EMISSARY ASSIST CHARACTER!

This image matches up with the previously shown leaked vid of the starting roster, so I am inclined to believe it This also confirms the return of the dark menu background! Perhaps you can customize that option (I always loved Melee's dark background)?






When you compare these two, they match up VERY well. Also note that this roster mockup was made LONG before today's developments. This may be the final roster. And yes, there are some moved to different spots, but that happened in Melee as well. Characters move around when new ones are unlocked. This follows up with the 35-character roster as well.




LUIGI!!! I am inclined to believe this because it matches up with the old leaked roster vid.



EDIT: Replaced the Olimar Kirby pic with the unshoop'd pic.

ZOMG FINAL CUTSCENE SCREEN!!!!




NEGATIVE NANCY: No Capt. to be seen??? Also, they COULD just be Emissary assists and not playable in the main game (didn't include that a sec ago because I wanted to get this post out quickly XP)

Capcom and Squeenix are not listed in the credits and therefore, they are not in Brawl. Also, there will most likely not be another 3rd party character for Brawl as there is not another big 3rd party one listed here. ALTHOUGH they COULD do another one from Sega or Konami, but that would debunk the roster shot above.

EDIT: Okay, DanielMachine just brought up a great point. Apparently, Sega and Konami may only be in the credits shown above because they are shown in the intro vid. He says that INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS wasn't in the credits until Marth was unlocked, so it's possible that those characters will be unlocked later. HOWEVER. This still conflicts with the roster mock-up shown above.

falacies?
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Ah. You beat me. Nice job. I'll go try to hide mine.
DynamicDonut's Destructoid Blog
Hah, good thing I checked the blogs before I posted mine. I never cared for Marth though, as I want Roy more.

Also, I liked Lucas more than Ness so far. But sexy SSBB intro is sexy.
taumpytears's Destructoid Blog
Metaknight ftw!
ZekeThePlumber's Destructoid Blog
Marth and Metaknight team up in SSE?

FUCKING BADASS!
Skribble's Destructoid Blog
They could be assists.
sicPOS's Destructoid Blog

@DanielMachine

Hehe. Nice try, though. It was a close call and I KNEW someone else was probably typing something up. XD Maybe next time ^_^

Bring me the Captain or I will not buy Smash. I'm serious.
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
Look, FALCON WILL BE IN BRAWL.

THIS VID PROVES IT.
BluFire's Destructoid Blog
I almost posted this - luckily I checked. I'll give it a "meh," mainly because I would have preferred Hector over Marth - but that never would have happened.
ZekeThePlumber's Destructoid Blog
Beat me to it Genki, I was just going to mention the Red Alloy.

But with all this confirmation, are we still led to believe this infamous 35 character roster is true. With the 23 already shown on the dojo and now Ness and Marth, we can assume Falco, Luigi, Jiggly, Cpt. Falcon, Lucario, Game & Watch, and Gannondorf are likely shoe-ins. So does that mean only 3 left?
SanityMask's Destructoid Blog
Man that music is so epic! Does anyone know what language they are speaking? Sounds Latin, certainly not Japanese, but I could be wrong. God stop the tease!

now say viewtiful joe or leon S. Kennedy confirmed and I'll blow up in amazement.

Also, where does that delicious info come from?
BluFire's Destructoid Blog
CLOUD IN BARWLS!!!11
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
@SanityMask

They're singing in Latin. Sakurai said so in an early DOJO update. Also, this delicious info comes from the anals of 4chan's /v/. They say it's on some JP site that requires login. If I can find the link, I will post it.
prowlerx083's Destructoid Blog
I'm happy that Green Hill zone is confirmed. =3

ZekeThePlumber's Destructoid Blog
Genki, I believe the menu turns dark after everyone selects their character.
covah's Destructoid Blog
Nice find
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
@Prowlerx083
Oh yeah, I fergot to mention that XD
BluFire's Destructoid Blog
I've been hoping for some Isaac/Felix action, as a character or at least as an AT. Anyone else?
Cowzilla3's Destructoid Blog
Fuck you March, you need to be now not a month away.

Watching the 2ch thread as this shit develops.

I don't even want this game, but the suspense is killing me.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Haha that Kirby is definitely shopped. Brawlcentral.com has the real one.
Aerox's Destructoid Blog
NNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
TheMuffinMan's Destructoid Blog
How does this debunk the 35 character roster? All of this falls completely into place in the 35 character roster....
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
My bad, I miscounted.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
I wouldn't be so set on that just because Square and Capcom are listed in the video that there will be no character representation from them. The licenses could just cover for who is in the video.
For instance, Intelligent Systems weren't in the Melee opening until Marth was unlocked, and Intelligent Systems are second party.
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
Oh DANG. Good point!! Oh man this changes everything... EDIT!!
Namelessted's Destructoid Blog
confirmed, Brawl should have been out 9 months ago.
Neonie's Destructoid Blog
WOLF?! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLF?!?!?! WTF! *Outraged*
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Luigi also got confirmed.
This art is way to real to be faked, not blurred, and new.
It's all new art, and I read that that Marth might be from some artwork for Fire Emblem DS.

Not sure if that BBcode worked or not but, yeah. Also sorry dude for barging in on your post, but I figure since you beat me I might as well help out.
Phoenix Gamma's Destructoid Blog
Well the spoiler's already spoiled if it's IN THE FRICKEN' TITLE.
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
@Daniel
Already been posting that stuff, man. XP But thanks anyway.
Shin Oni's Destructoid Blog
ok. Lets all freak for no Megaman.

Lets all f+b are asses off for Marth's return.
Genki-JAM's Destructoid Blog
Okay DanielMachine, you can post whatever else comes up (preferably in here--just want to minimize c-log clogging--I'd definitely update it all into the post in the morning and give you credit, but if you want your own clog, go ahead). I need to rest from all this excitement! @_@

But let me say this before I go to bed to everyone. Most likely, the mock-up list in my post is the real deal.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
No dude, its completely cool. I just wanted to help a bit.
DynamicSheep's Destructoid Blog
brawlcentral blew the fuck up... it's blown into pieces and busted!
DynamicSheep's Destructoid Blog
based on the character select screen, it looks like 35 is going to be the total amount of characters. We've got three rows, seven wide, that's 21. Fill out the bottom row, minus the random spot, and that's 27. Now add four in a column on the left and four in a column on the right and you've got 35.
Necros's Destructoid Blog
FUCK YES
DanGale's Destructoid Blog
NOOOOO!!!! Where is my Roy? Look slike I'll have to go with Ike. It'll be a cold day in hell before I play as Marth.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Cool!
Hitogoroshi's Destructoid Blog
Damn that opening is fucking epic.
Twicky's Destructoid Blog
I want Mega Man, damnit! Geno would be awesome too, but damnit, it's Mega Man!
