[Update: GameTrailers got the videos up fast! Check out Sonic in action above and the Nintendo Conference video after the jump!] 

Nexy-poo broke the news moments ago that Sonic will be making it into the Brawl. Well the DOJO just had a triple update for Wednesday showing video and pictures of Sonic in action.  

Until we get the embed codes from GameTrailers, you can check out the video of Sonic destroying Mario, Bowser and other notable Nintendo characters at the DOJO. A second video was also released today from the Nintendo Conference. It's just a quick montage of a lot of the things the DOJO has been updating with in the last couple of months.

So Sonic in Brawl ... who else had to change their pants? The lines at E For All are going to be much longer now.

When are the good Nintendo games going to come out that are not old franchises?

Still looking forward to this, though.

Finally the question will be answered. Who would win in a fight, Mario or Sonic? Seriously though, anyone not see this coming? It sucks that's it's most likely delayed.

Yeah, I can't say this is a surprise, but it's still awesome to know for sure. And yeah, Nintendo had better have like a hundred TVs set up with Brawl on them, and even then I can imagine huge lines...

The smash bros. website now has the release date at TBD when before the sonic update it was Dec.3, and this is on the U.S. version. That's pretty much delayed to me.

Dude! He's totally badass!

Someone better call up NOA tomorrow to find out what's the deal with the release date. I was fully expecting to be playing this game with old friends come Christmas. *shakes fist*

Not that I don't have this already preordered or anything...

If the idea is bringing out Mario's old competition from the days of mascot wars into actual combat I definitely want to see Crash Bandicoot come in the mix. It would only make sense.

I just had a mental image of a tiny digital seesaw, with Sonic the Hedgehog on one end, and a box labeled "Big Fat Delay" on the other. The seesaw is balanced, and so are my feelings about this update. Tricky, Nintendo....

Don't voice Sonic and remove the crappy music, and Sonic will rock again. I always liked Sonic as a silent protagonist.

I always knew this was going to happen, but at the same time I knew it never would. I'm glad I was wrong (right?).

Sonic's going to be tough to unlock though, you gotta beat 20 opponents in Cruel melee.

...Or so says EGM. =p

Some guy on Smashboards.com claiming to have an inside source said 3 days ago that Sonic would be Wednesday's update. Maybe he's telling the truth. He also says Captain Olimar from Pikmin will be playable.

Here's a link to his post about Sonic. You can look at the date and see that he posted this on Sunday, before it was on destructoid or any other sites that I know of. http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=3006711#post3006711

"sonics the name, speeds my game" has to be about the most retarded thing I've ever heard. That phrase just killed off any hope I have left for the sonic series.

This should be good though.

Any guesses on other non-ninty charachters.
My bets on a viewtifull joe assist trophy that speeds up/slows down the battle.
