Ok, so we are obsessed with Smash Brothers Brawl, and it was fun speculating over the leaked smash brothers brawl list. But there is no point any more now that there is so much awesome real stuff since the Japanese launch, and now the internet has gone ape shit with content. Here is some of it.

This is the official starting roster, straight from the Japanese game.

Here are some gameplay videos:

Joystiq has more videos

Update: This list has been confirmed fake. Look back tomorrow for a comprehensive list of characters and other Smash Brothers goodies to drool over!

Update: Here is a video from gametrailers.com for all the people that are claiming fake. At about 00:12 they show the menu in action.

This is a leaked screen from the Japanese version with all the characters listed!

Word on the streets of the internet say that Kid Icarus is coming to the Wii and is being developed by Factor 5. The game is supposedly going to be created from the ground up, which means they are actually going to use a new engine and we won’t get stuck with GameCube graphics.

As you can tell, us Wiitards loved the game Kid Icarus (see banner). Its game play is reminiscent of Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, but with its vertical level design and the use of going out from one side of the screen and popping out on the other side, at the time, was incredibly innovative. I would love to see Pit enter into the 3D platforming realm because flying and shooting arrows at the same time is awesome. More later if the rumors turn out to be fact!

If anyone needs a refresher on the old Kid Icarus days check out this video and let the nostalgia rain.

Update: It looks as though there is no hacking going on; it is just the luckiest glitch on the planet. If you see someone with the glitch, I guess my only advice would be watch out and avoid the glitched player, or join their team.

So lately I have been playing Medal of Honor Heroes 2 online like an addict. It isn’t a ground breaking FPS by any means but it has been very enjoyable to lurk in the port and snipe nubs. Lately though my friends and I have been noticing something weird. There have been three occasions now with three users (momo8, Tomdooley, and someone else I can’t remember) where I unload on them and they don’t die. That can happen sometimes, but it kept on happening, over and over and over and over again. Eventually I get super pissed and check the stats only to find out that these freaks have scores like 80-0. Strange.

In a new and very upsetting note, the Smash Bros. Dojo! has announced that one of the biggest Nintendo games ever has been delayed once again.

It has been officially announced that Pikmin & Olimar are going to be in Smash Brothers Brawl. Here is an excerpt from the site:

Without Pikmin, Olimar can’t even do a Smash Attack. And the short-lived Pikmin tend to scatter. Theirs is a fated symbiotic relationship.

Now that this is announced how does this affect our future smashing? Is Olimar going to be a forced to reckoned with or will he be a novelty like Mr. Game and Watch?
