so i don't know if anyone cares anymore, but man if i was back in time and in high school and this game was coming out, i'm sure we'd talk about it a lot at lunch.

sonic is definitely in the new smash bros game. also, i'm happy to see the return of THE ICE CLIMBERS IN YOUR FACE, and i'm equally happy to know that diddy kong is going to be in the game, too.

squirtle, bulbasaur, and charizard will be playable through the pokemon trainer character. pikachu is still is own pokemon and answers to no master.

there's a new crazy kid from earth bound, lucas, but ness is gone. marth and roy are gone, but ike (who looks just like marth) is in.

i don't know if samurai goro and a hammer bro are offical characters, but i've seen lots of screen shots of them mixing it up with other characters.

but man, sonic is going to be in a fighting game against MARIO. crazy times. i think there is supposed to be one more non-nintendo character to join sonic and solid snake. maybe it will be someone from final fantasy since it seems like nintendo and square-enix are buddy buddy again.

i don't even own or plan to own a nintendo wii, but i'm really excited about this game. one day we should all get visitor passes to HHS and go eat lunch and talk about smash bros and adult swim.
