[SPOILERS]: Mother/Earthbound series content in Brawl is huge and I'm h a p p y
iateyourhorse | 11:09 AM on 01.29.2008 35 comments


*Changed the title because of fear of repost spam, this is a blog about me basically throwing cheer around like a 5 year old with excitement at the inclusion of more content from the mother series, not a repost of confirmed characters*



Thanks to the amount of leakage that has gone on through the day and the last 2 weeks, I'm super super SUPER excited for Super Smash Brothers Brawl and will definitely purchase the Wii console upon its PAL release. But why exactly do I want to purchase SSSB?, well unlike the other games in the SSB series it features so much, too much of my favorite Nintendo series, Mother/Earthbound.

It all started with Lucas, for those who followed the cascade when we read this upon Sakurai's publishing of the Lucas article showing off his move list:

"There’s a character named Ness who has appeared in the Smash Bros. series up until now, and Lucas is very similar. They are from the same family of PK users."

Do you remember,
The rage?
The despair?
The upset?

And then, it came, the trailer that demoed features of the game. The stickers?, and who can use them?... who was next to Lucas!? NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS

It was amazing that he was confirmed!, and today's leak they shown off cutscenes of Ness in the actual game!



But...who else?
What followed the final confirmation of Ness?, heres a clue!
He is greedy and rides a giant spider mech.












PORKY/POKEY MOTHERFUCKERS!



Holy fucking shit!, a boss battle with one of the best characters in Nintendo history!

But that isn't all!, we've got stickers of course related to the series such as Kumatora and Claus and a Jeff assist trophy (Credits to SWPM's blog) and possible more things to unlock!, I hope for a Giygas/Giegue/Gigu boss battle SO much!, in either form!

Hopefully the inclusion of so much items related to the Mother universe will finally give attention to the stubborn Nintendo that Mother will do well over the States if they gave it a chance. (let alone Europe, but hey I'm glad if I ever get my hands on more official English language material.) The same goes to Fire Emblem too.

Pokey as a boss is pretty damn sweet
Raggy Mop's Destructoid Blog
For some reason one of the main things I want in this game is for Mr Disguised Saturn to pop out every now and then instead of regular Saturn.. that'd make my like complete
Raggy Mop's Destructoid Blog
And by like I mean life, of course... I feel a fool
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog

Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Reaprar shut the fuck up and stop advertising in other peoples blog.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Sorry, I ment to say, Reaprar try and considerate of others feelings while refraining from advertising your blog.

No I really didn't, but you get the point.

YOU CANNOT GRASP THE TRUE FORM OF GIYGAS' ATTACK!
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
I have no problem with Reaprar advertising here.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Just throwing this out here because I'm sure more people will see it here, just confirmed Marvel Zombies in my blog.
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
I have a problem with Snaileb posting his advertising here because Marvel Zombies doesn't have much to do with the video game Super Smash Brothers Brawl, at all.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
If you have a problem with Marvel Zombies, you're a terrible person.
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
I don't have a problem with Marvel Zombies, in fact I prefer World War Hulk.
I just don't think the advertising of a Marvel product, or at least rumor of a Marvel franchise isn't appropriate for a blog that doesn't mention anything to do with Marvel, or even zombies for that matter.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Well then it's a good thing you can take a joke instead of turning it into some awkward discussion about what you like to advertise, huh?
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
Troll'd
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
But seriously, back onto Brawl/Mother discussion
FunnyFarm's Destructoid Blog
But, I don't want to Brawl with my Mother, I like my mom.

For Cereal though, this game keeps getting better and better looking in my book.

Bah, thats not the Spider Mech from Mother 2, thats whatever he's in from Mother 3, which I have yet to play (finish up those damn translations!)
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog

James, make something for your profile.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
I like video games!
iateyourhorse's Destructoid Blog
Ahhh, the disadvantages of having independent publishing.
Scary Womanizing Pig Mask's Destructoid Blog
First off awesome Giygas picture. I love how the infant's outline is still viable. I'm so psyched about a rematch against Pokey! Hopefully we'll actually get to beat him this time. I also saw a shot of Lucas running from the giant Pokey statue, although I can't seem to find it now.
