Sorry, I generally try to keep my videogame nerdity and magic nerdity seperate, but I just couldn't resist. The new Super Smash Bros has been announced for Nintendo Wii and it looks to be awesome!! Pit, Wario, Meta-Knight, and SNAKE(!) are all playable characters this time!

Simply... WOW. This looks to be hella fun!

Holy Shit!  I absolutely love Smash Bros.  I can't wait until this new Nintendo comes out.  It's supposed to be insanely cheap, too.

Oh man, that's so awesome. It's also great that they won't be using any confusing controls via the new controller.

Just one thing bothers me - Is that a friggin' Nintendog? In a fighting game? WTF?

As for Snake joining in, I think that's really sweet. A big problem with unlockable characters is that Nintendo doesn't always have acces to them due to copywright laws. It's really great that Konami gave liscensing to Nintendo to use Snake.

Also, this game will be online. Nintendo has announced that previously.

If you haven't already seen it, watch the video. It's amazing.

Yeah, all I can say is wow.

I'm leaning towards a Wii right now, although Final Fantasy/Gran Tourismo/Tekken may change all that...

Originally I wasn't going to buy any of the new big 3(XBox 360, PS3, or Wii), but the games that have been confirmed (some of my favorite titles of all time), the new controller (which is just the shit), and how much cheaper the Wii will been than the other 2 has pretty much convinced me that I'm grabbing a Wii when it's released.

I will break into your house while you aren't home and disguise myself as a chair. Then I will leave before you get home, but there will be a place at your table where I was a chair and you will wonder why there isn't a chair there. Then later I will leave the chair disguise on your doorstep and you will realize what has happened and you will be afraid all the time. Helter Skelter mother fuckers!

I'm hoping that SSBB will include a good online play feature. I, for one, would love to beat some fellow TMDers in this game.

When is the Wii supposed to be released, and what's the retail on it supposed to be? I need to get one of those, and a PS3 at some point, but the PS3's price tag is friggin' ridiculous. I could sell power and still not have enough for it. Meh. Moxen = greater than PS3

No one knows. It's MYSTEEEERIOUS.

All that we know is that we'll be playing them Q4 in 2006 and that it will cost less than 300 bucks. My guess is that it will be a late August/early Sept release for 200 bucks.

A lot of people are bitching at the PS3's price, and I'm pretty sure that it will lose marketshare to both Nintendo and Microsoft, which is unfortunate, because all that Microsoft is so far doing on the next-gen front is trying to suck less than Sony.

The PS3 should be hot, but I can't see spending the cash. For a release price under $300, though, I'm almost certain to get a Wii. (They need to NOT call it a Wii. I can see the jokes already... it's like CoK Block all over again) The XBoxes are trash. They're $500 paper weights. They have no good games. (Fine, fine! Halo) On top of that, they're anything but portable. You actually need a forklift to get them out of the store.

After PS2 vs Sega Dreamcast, not to mention the whole rootkit fiasco, I"ll settle for that. Sony suck.

I had heard $250.  As far as the release date?  2006.  Yeah, I know I'm a smartass, but unlike the rest of you I have World of Warcraft to distract me until 2007.  I might not even notice the transition to the new year.

I really hope that online works well.  Melee was such a game of finesse that I can't imagine the timeing will work over the internet.  I mean, you can't say your a melee master until you've goten the Air Dodge -> Grab Incoming Bomb-um down to a science.... Which a friend of mine can do with good regularity. 

Also hes insanely savage with the frieken homerun bat or Star Rod, he doesn't even swing the blasted thing... just chucks it at you at close range and catches it before it hits the ground.  Savage.  I haven't met a person who can best him yet.

I mean, its hard enough to snipe online in H2 .. I can't immagine that online timing will beable to compensate for a game where windows of oppertunity are open for miliseconds. =/
