Today brought us two Brawl Updates. One was an Ice Climbers soundtrack for the Summit level. Part of it sounds like Breath of Fire III to me.

But anyway, onto the bigger news of today, which is the Options Mode.

The above picture is what's claimed to be the Main Menu

You'll notice the 6 options that are up there. Today, Options is being shown off.

Notice that Sounds are there. Look further on to find out about it.

Deflicker

I think mostly everyone knows what this does. You can't tell the difference with a picture, so Sakurai suggests "toggling it on and off on your own TV."

The usual Deflicker stuff.

Rumble

This Option lets you choose which controllers have rumble, and which player names can have rumble regardless of the controller options. Please note, the Classic Controller has no rumble feature, so even if it's labeled as "On" it won't do the shakey.

Can't really think of anything to say here without sounding stupid. So, on to the next mode:

Sound

This, like Melée, lets you alter how loud or quiet the sound effects and music are. You can't have both at maximum or minimum, as turning one up turns the other down.

Here, the sound effects would be louder than the music.

And, the other part of Sound - the Sound Test mode. It's available from the start this time, so no need to go about unlocking all the levels for it this time around.

It looks rather slick this time around. You can choose to go through the tracks by title or category as there are so many around in this game.

You can also have the character sound effects, so you can hear them fly away without all the beating up needed before-hand. :) And the final mode that hasn't been featured yet is:

Erase Data

Sakurai warns the player not to use this. So unless you want to get the characters again (which you can easily do on another memory card) don't use this mode.

It gives you a notice that the final option erases EVERYTHING. So no touchy.

He also gives links to the 3 "Options" modes he's already shown:

Screen



Controls



My Music



Click on the link above the picture to go to that option screen.

And I'm done. Drinks are in the lobby.

Please excuse the Sound Effects picture, it wouldn't go to a smaller size without using Photoshop.
