Nah, I want to find out everything that I can about this game as early as I can. It's not like ruining a good story or anything.

I'd like to know them all. It won't matter really. If you don't look you won't find out. But if you're like me, you're going to know the whole cast shortly after the Japanese release. It's not like it's spoiling a plot or anything.

I was trying my best not to look at the Dojo site so stuff in the game would be more of a surprise. Eventually I couldn't help myself, as long the internet exists spoilers are everywhere.

Telling us about Sonic and Snake more then likely increased the sales SSBB will get. Plus they don't force you to look at the Dojo.

I do NOT agree with all characters being revealed. Once you know... theres no mystery. The characters are the best part! I remember in melee and the original I was so excited to find out who comes next! It ruins the surprise and I hate it.

They won't tell us all the characters. At least, I don't think so. There will be surprises left. But once the Japanese version is released, good luck avoiding spoilers.

i think they should tell us what all the characters are and how to unlock them. there can still be other surprises, but if they dont do that, then I will eventually just look it up on the net to see how to get them

I remember play Super Smash Bros and beating for the first time, and the game was like you've unlocked a secret character then would say Jigglypuff, and i was like hey cool i didnt know Jigglypuff was in the game. None of that IMO will happen with SSBB, becuase ill know what all the characters are by then.

Maybe its just me, but spoilers in fighting games just don't fase me. In fact, I'd rather know what I'm buying in a fighting game rather than most of it being kept secret. Thats just my opinion.

That's what makes fighting games fun, unlocking characters. Heck JUS had so many unlockables and characters in so different forms and that's what made the game so damn fun!

Sure, they might release the third-party characters just because that's good advertising, but Nintendo can keep their characters under the hood.

On a side note, Snake's final smash sucks...

To be fair, I'm pretty sure there are quite a few characters in SSBB that we won't know about until the game's release.

dude i know exactly wut u mean...

there was always thiss excitement and anxiety when u got "new challenger"

but i dont think they care about that anymore and just care on promoting the game.

Yeah, I agree. Every game should have its secrets that you only uncover by playing the game.

revealing snake and sonic was the right move .. increases publicity, and could mean more people buy the game, especially MGS and sonic fans

i'm sure they want to keep other characters secret .. they won't all be confirmed officially, but they'll end up getting leaked pretty quickly

In all honesty you're being pretty silly, we know very little of the game really. We know about a lot of things, but not a lot about what's in them, which can only be found out by actally playing the game. As for characters, I'd say we only know the sarting roster, bar Sonic/Snake.

Nah the Internet is here for people who wanna know everything. I'm sure there are tons of people who will buy this game not knowing much about the secret chars, to them the surprises will rock. It's our own fault for looking online...
