BREAKING: Penny Arcade Forum Finds Brawl Character Reveal Hidden in Video

Official Japanese Brawl Video

Forumites on the Penny Arcade thread for SSBB spotted clear evidence of previously unconfirmed characters hidden inside the official video linked above. At 4:21 there are some frames that show a couple stickers selected. At the bottom right of the screen the game displays little icons for the playable characters the sticker buffs in the one player game.




This is where we find some familiar likenesses including highly suspected brawlers including the returning Jigglypuff and Ness(!) and newcomer Lucario!!! Okay so I barely know who Lucario is other than he's one of the Pokemon that can say more than his name in Pokemon movies. But hey, way to go Penny Arcade forum people!

UPDATE: Wow, this completely confirms Nintendo slipped up: they've edited the video! Now the sections of the screen that showed the stats for the stickers are totally blank! Way to totally confirm things Nintendo!

More Smash Bros Brawl Footage to Hold You Over

Here's some extra footage to hold you over until March. Please don't kill yourself for yet another hold up and the year's best game!

Warning! Challenger Approaching! It's.... King Dedede!!

The self-proclaimed king of Dream Land formally joins the brawl! Mechanizing his wooden mallet, he delivers a mighty, earth-shaking blow!

He joins as a member of the heavyweight class alongside Bowser and Donkey Kong. Can he defeat Kirby?!
Finally some more heavy weights! Oh man, I'm getting nervous about owning this game. There's a very good chance that if I touch this game I may never come out of the awesome induced coma that is sure to happen. I can see it now, my coworkers just looking around one day, "Hey, where's Austen? I haven't seen him in like a month."

New Smash Bros Brawl In Game Footage!

SSBB Character Screen Leaked!

Whether or not this is real or photoshopped or just alpha testing of the game is yet to be seen.

Rev up your thinking caps, according to this picture there's 50 character slots to fill and we've only seem about a dozen or so of those spots filled.
