SSBB Revelations

NOTE: This entry has been updated once.
Just as I had suspected, we've got access to a bunch of info on Brawl after it had been released in Japan. I've got my hands on some interesting tidbits of info, and I would bet blue Gamah's life that these are 100% true. If you don't want spoilers, don't read on.

FINAL SPOILER WARNING

1. Wolf's moves
Wolf does have a blaster like Fox and Falco did in melee (and possibly in Brawl). I believe it is more like Falco's than Fox's (from Melee, I don't know if their blasters changed in Brawl).

2. Master Hand and Final Destination
MH has returned as a boss battle, with cooler than ever music and a altered stage. It is similar to Final Destination, but the shape (on the bottom-end, doesn't affect game play) is slightly altered and it is blue in color.

3. Disappointing news with Toon Link and Ganandorf
I saw Toon Link fighting, and unfortunately he looks like a clone of Young Link.
I also saw Ganandorf, and it appeared that he didn't use his sword. This isn't a guarantee, and there still is the chance that he uses it in his Final Smash.

4. Lucario's move and Final Smash
I was able to see Lucario in a battle, and... Is it a he or a she? Anyway, it had a move very much like Mewtwo's Shadow Ball. Lucario's Final Smash is as follows: He flies into the center of the air above the stage, and unleashes a mighty beam on it's enemies. I loved it.

5. Ridley
No, not a character, but he is a boss battle. After a short cutscene of smashing Samus against a wall then getting zapped by Pikachu, you are able to pick which of the two characters you want to fight Ridley as. Ridley has a life meter on the top of the screen, and you beat on him until it empties. It looks amazing.



Character on-screen Appearances
Back in November Sakuri gave us info on the on-screen appearances of Mario, Fox, Ice Climbers, Pit, Lucas, Ike and Snake. Check back under “How To Play Techniques” if you need to refresh your memory. Here are a few more that I saw:


Luigi:
Same as Mario’s, he comes out of a Warp Pipe.

Wolf:
Gets dropped off by a Wolfen.

Peach:
Appears out of nowhere with her umbrella.

Wario:
Rides in on his Motor-bike.

Olimar:
Gets dropped off from his space ship.

Link:
Couldn’t see very well, but I think he comes out of a gale from his boomerang. This may not be
accurate, though.
