Seen it :P

Got everyone except Mewtwo and G&W today, I just hope my Kirby 64/Squeak Squad skillz transfer over to The Subspace Emissary.
If they do, I estimate me finishing it by seven in the morning (after the midnight release :P)

Bowser used to be my main but he's just too darn slow so I experimented with some other characters and I really like Peach. But I'm glad that Bowser has been given some much-needed improvements in Brawl. I've heard that the difference is phenomenal.
If you're interested in seeing what the new Bowser looks like, watch some of Gimpyfish's videos. He's one of the best Bowser players.

Bowser's >B has definitely been improved, too, and I don't just mean in the way this video shows.

My Gamecube Memory card, which had all of my save games on it for all of my Gamecube games, somehow got corrupted!

I lost Everything!
My Memory Card keeps getting erased by various people for I-have-no-clue what reason. So I think I've unlocked every character and stage about five times since I got the game.

Woh, why's the forum gone wacky?

Anyway, here's some cool videos of Metaknight flying around Hyrule Temple and a jumping video. Some of the character's recoveries are pretty neat this time around.

So is anyone being brave (or realistic :P) like me and not reserving a copy? It's hilarious because a lot of the people who are telling me to reserve a copy have only gone to video game stores. I think they're forgetting about Walmart, Best Buy, Target... These are the stores that have everything in bulk. Gamestop can only have so many copies. My prediction is that it'll be totally unnecessary. There will be so many copies that I'll be able to walk into either Walmart, Best Buy, or Target first thing Sunday morning and pick up a copy. Mark my words!

ok. and that's my theory behind the Mar 9th delay. Nintendo needed more copies for the American launch. Just look at the reports of shortages in Japan.

I just choose GameStop because it was the closest, and I put down a reserve just to be safe (I haven't had good luck with this store).

I know I won't have a problem getting a copy. As far as I can tell England is a bit more civilised when it comes to going out and buying games. No waiting outside stores for two days rubbish. Game will have enough copies for everyone who wants one, which'll be a lot by normal standards, but still not enough for them to run out.

You guys are missing out if you don't wait outside stores, everyone usually brings their other games. 8 player Mario Kart DS FtW.

They're too busy drinking tea. I, on the other hand, am too busy eating cheese in a windmill whilst doing drugs wearing wooden shoes, so I'm getting it without waiting in front of a store too. Maybe I'll just order it online.

The drugs der Nederlands wear clogs? :lol:

Tournament at Gamestop isn't restricted to preorders, as far as I know, but I feel like the store is going to be busy enough that by the time I'm done with the tournament I'll just want to get on home. And FYI, there's no guarantee that stores like Wal-Mart or Target will have them on the first day.

Anyways, I thought you guys might like this: http://www.gamestop.com/gs/ssbb/tournament/default.asp

Good luck if you pre-ordered there like me. ;)
Interesting, I pre-ordered from there as well, I doubt I'll participate though

Walmart and Best Buy have it listed on their sites though Target only has the players guide listed. The local Walmart is always a sure bet though so I'm not worried but I might reserve a copy just to be safe. Having the game and looking like a hypocrite is better than not having the game and looking like an idiot.
