Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Japanese ads make me giddy as a schoolgirl photo

Sassy little tipster, BlindsideDork, clued us into this latest scan featuring Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The picture (which I am assuming is an ad) is courtesy of Gamefront, a site that happens to be entirely in German. The ad itself, as you can see, is entirely in Japanese.

So while Herr Nex is busy corrupting orphans, and DMV is currently incarcerated, it has been left to me, a person with no German or Japanese skills, to spread the news. Well, all I can say about this picture is; Look! Look! Super Smash Bros Brawl! This game is going to be awesome! Pew! Pew! Pew!

At least that's my professional opinion. Personally, Super Smash Bros. Melee was the game that convinced me that I needed a Gamecube. After purchasing SSBM, many a night was spent sleepless, wasted away on furious battles, the game forever calling me back with its siren song of hidden characters and arenas.

I still play SSBM to this day and can easily say that when Brawl arrives; it will, like its predecessor, consume my life with its awesomeness.

Is that a full suited Samus I see. :D

When I played Prime, I was very saddened by the Samus in SSBM (even though see was good.)

As long as Falco, Dr. Mario, and Marth return for this game, I won't commit any random acts of violence.

I really want this game to make me want to buy a Wii. Too bad the trailer was choppy and it sucked.

I think there is a lot more room to cram some more words in there. I would fire my ad agency, they did not completely fill those 2 pages.

That'll be the lamest boat ever to have been boughten, and it will still be better than the Wii. Zing!

sucky scan, just rehashed bits of the trailer.

yay new smash! Boo lack of enaging previews.

Yay Fox is back. Thank every deity ever conceived that he is not Dinosaur Planet Fox. But all the same, why the DS game fox? Looks like a visual step backwards to me. Amiright? Amiwrong?

I want to play this so bad but if HAL don't think it's ready it's not god damn ready!
Fox looks lame, why do they keep having to change his appearence? I don't think he's looked the same in any game he's been in. Melee fox was possibly the best design but still they need to make him some flat faces goonwad.

waaaiiiit, is that tingle I see on page one or is that just a small add for Tingle's rosecolloured freshly picked rupy land?

@vyruz

it's definitely tingle, he's swinging a remote, and the Smash Bros. X is going over the box, so who knows.... dammit, I wish I sorta knew a different language.

Funny ad. As you may or may not know, the Japanese love to condense words into one, or just shorten the word altogether. For example, Starbucks in Japan is called "Su-ta-ba", remote control is "remo-kon" and personal computer is "paso-kon". Here, they call the game "Purojekuto Suma-bura" from the katakana-ization "Sumashu Burazasu". At the bottom, there are random pieces of useless information like "You can have battles!" and "The colors are vibrant!" and something about S-class characters, which I have no idea about.

The Smash bros games are the single reasons I game. No Halo, no GTA. Nothing else even made by Nintendo even compares to SSB. Nothing. I still play melee, finding that game perfect in every way. This is the hardcore Wii game.

Sometimes when Im alone, i fall asleep just to dream about SSBB, if SSBB were a person it would already have a restraining order against me.

Am I the only person that attributes poor quality trailers to the fact that it's a poorly compressed internets video rather than the quality of the final product represented?

Like all the stuff about Halo 3 not looking as good as Halo 2 because it didn't look as good when you watched the trailer on YouTube.
