Well I guess this leaves the door open for anyone who has ever appeared on a Nintendo game, regardless of the fact that their premier game was on the MSX2 and the majority of their games were for Sony consoles, who is their most bitter enemy.

If you're a badass like me and you can understand Japanese, you can take this poll to see what characters or music you'd like to see in the game. The pulldown menu options for characters is the second, the third is for music.

My list:

A giant, sentient wiimote
Shigeru Miyamoto
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
Bomberman
Viewtiful Joe
Megaman
Diddy Kong
King Dedede
Mach Rider
That Guy (ballon fighter)
That Other Guy (Pilotwings)
Earthworm Jim
Dry Bones
Meowth
Ray 01
Me

My brother showed me that yesterday.

Supposedly he told me that Hideo Kojima had asked Nintendo to have Solid snake in Melee but when he asked them it was already too late in production. I guess he must've kept bugging them or something. That is really weird though. My brother is also really pumped about Metaknight and Wario being playable.

I'm just really really glad that they aren't gonna have you use the new controllers for smash bros. Brawl. Its going to use the Gamecube remotes still. I was so releived when I heard that. My other big releif yesterday while watching E3 stuffs was the plugin controll that they're gonna use for the old school games you download. Its basically a snes controller with 2 analog sticks that you plug into your wii remote....

I'm not so feary for thew future now. I'm starting to look up.
