Yeah, but Sakurai mentioned at the beginning of the tournament that the game is still a work-in-progress. Things may change before September 13th when it drops in Japan.

Aww, Japan gets it a month early? Sad face.

They'll probably get the whole roster unlocked within the first week it's released. My bros.

Crap you're right.

I got a WiikeyU pre-ordered just so I can play this game earlier, but I'd need a japanese WiiU... AAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

Wait, what?? It's not a simultaneous release? Man, I was really hoping the game wouldn't be spoiled for me.

Spoiler alert: the game is brawl 2.0

u/mysticrudnin Jun 11 '14

good. single player brawl was pretty sweet and that's what the 3ds version is for me anyway.

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '14

No, that isn't good. We want the game to be closer to chess, not checkers.

That said, canwegoback is being a little douchey by making such claims at this point.

It's something that was taken out, I don't see it coming back in later.

u/ALittleFly Jun 11 '14

Yeah...with only a couple of months, I doubt we'll see anything involving key movement mechanics like that...

Arriving in Japan on Sept 11 for 1 year study exchange. Will purchase day 1 and report.

Unless you're also getting a japanese 3DS region locking will probs prevent you from learning much.

u/dtadgh Jun 11 '14

Good thing I already have a Japanese 3DS then. ;)
