Nintendo Wii Media | Smash Update: Classic Items

By Jorge Ba-oh 06.11.2007 23

A whole range of past items make their return to Smash Bros. Brawl, and today are explained on the official website; some with a new twist!

A number of items from past Smash games appear in this one as well. But, of course, there are naturally many people who have never played any of those games. And even if you have, I still think I ought to explain these.

It's not all of them, but I would like to introduce a few.

Sure I'll miss the Classic pink beamsword, but the blue one looks cool too.

The stopwatch might be like freezie, you hit someone with it & they stop for a while, or when you pick it up everyone but the you freezes for a while

Items are usually banned from official tournaments anyway...

& as soon as a Homerun Bat lands on the stage, it's my job to throw it away. Smilie

Wooohooo... BEAM SWORD... I think I prefer PINK though!! Smilie

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

I do that to my friends 'cause it's the only way they can beat me. I like items but they really piss me off when the people use them too much I mean, why they bunch of crappies don't do some training? I can't remember how many times I've played "Cruel Melee" in the last Smash...so my rules are no items for tournament battles Smilie

Other than beam sword looking different, how has any of them changed?

Anyone else noticed that only after eating the mushroom is Charziard proportiantly scaled to Pikachu?

Enoch Powell was right, and you know it.

Would've been funnier if Pikachu got the Super Mushroom! Now why didn't they think of that?

It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path.

Hmm... is Nintendo just getting bored or are they just not showing us the big surprises until we actually get the game? h and did anyone else notice that Charizard was his actual size after he ate the mushroom?

So what if he doesn't know Charizard? Not everyone is that into pokemon Smilie

Back on topic, the beam sword is looking cool. I love using it. Hopefully it now works with the up and down movements too.
