Super Smash Brothers Brawl: DELAYED
Pushed Back Nearly a Month
by Coop
The rumors buzzed and we tried to hard to believe they weren’t true. No matter how many reports there were or how many websites posted it, I held my hope high...
Sadly there is truth to the murmurs, and Super Smash Brothers Brawl has slipped to March 9, 2008. Here is the quote from the Dojo:
"Due to delays in the completion of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, we’ve had to change the release date of the game to Sunday, March 9th.
I deeply apologize to the people who have looked forward to playing the game for so long and ask that you hold on just a little longer. Thank you for your patience."
I believe the word you are looking for is, "Noooooooooooooooooooo!"
This is terrible news for all Wii owners, as the shining light at the end of the tunnel was moved just a little further away. Hopefully there is a good reason for this (additional character additions) and the game doesn't face any more delays. It was said to be a launch title and now it is looking at a full year and a half of delays.
More news as it arrives - but hopefully it wont.

i used to be semi interested in this game. nintendo dropped the ball. now, with all these delays... i don't think i'll be picking this game up.
o. more delays
Delays suck and are a disappointment for sure, but to not buy a game because it's been delayed seems a little harsh. The real problem are the dates. They should just drop the date announcements until a month before release. As far as buying the game, I think if the game is fun then you should play it. Who are you really punishing if you dont play it, because they didnt meet a deadline?
i was on the border with this game, because i was never really into the previous smash bros., maybe except for the one for N64 which i played a dozen or so times.
i'm just sick of waiting for a "maybe game". this game went from a meh to an "oh.. maybe i'll pick it up since i'm not looking forward to any games till later in 08" to a "pass"
