Fat Princess? Really? Was that thing really that popular?
Kid Icarus? Really? Was that thing really that popular?
I actually had to look up who that even was when SSB:B was coming out, and after some light research I pretty much thought the same thing, but to clarify I'm hoping they don't miss putting in some big Sony star because a character like Fat Princess took up the slot, if not then I'll welcome her with open arms

Apart from Shonin: Jump on the DS, I can't think of another Smash Bros-esque crossover game that wasn't some pet project game from Japan with broken gameplay mechanics.

(no, MvC does not count; that's more like Super Street Fighter 3 with odd characters rather than Smash Bros.)

I don't care if it is a complete rip off... Honestly, I'd -LOVE- if it was a complete rip off. They'd have all the things I loved about the Super Smash Bros. franchise except with Sony characters. I'm so going to get this thing.

Someone needs to buy the Sony camera guy a tripod, or a zoom button that doesn't pan in and out constantly. Im fine with a smash brothers games but they could have tried harder to make it look different. Those P1 and P2 flags looked about the same. Then sweet tooth summoned a vehicle like Fox in SSB:B.

Also, put some Digimon in there. Seriously, Digimon World was exclusive to PS1, and the new Digimon World (One I hope Bandai will localise) is coming exclusively to PSP! Go on! An Agumon here or a Guilmon there wouldn't hurt.
Not much of a need for that considering there were already two Smash Bros. clones solely based around the Digimon property. Although I wouldn't mind a Rumble Arena 3.

OT: Speaking of Rumble Arena, the video included here reminded me of Rumble Arena 2 far more than Smash Bros. It's all in the physics, I think. Rumble Arena was fairly floaty, and that's the impression I got from this video. Plus, the orbs falling out when a character gets hit -- that's all Rumble Arena. Considering how much I enjoyed both Rumble Arena and Smash Bros., I'm looking forward to this.

Holy crap yes. Who cares if it's a direct clone of Brawl? Brawl with Sony characters is what a lot of people have been wanting for a very, very long time. I for one am incredibly excited, as long as they include the big four platformers: Jak and Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, Spyro and Crash Bandicoot. I also wouldn't mind Spike from Ape Escape. T'ai Fu from Wrath of the Tiger would be cool, but I doubt anyone remembers that game...

Does anyone else hate that camera style that they used in the video where they don't even point it at the guy talking? Most retarded thing ever.

As for the game, it's obviously a complete ripoff, but I'll buy it anyway. It'll be cheaper than getting a Wii.

This game is a massive failure if it doesn't include Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.

And even then, it's probably going to be a failure. If people want to play SSBB, they're going to play SSBB.
You know that won't happen. Sony loves destroying Crash for whatever reason. Even ND likes to piss on CB fans. Besides, Activision holds the licenses.

OT: Add Cole. That would be kinda cool. And Fat Princess wasn't even that popular.

My thoughts, as organized into specific points:

A. Yes, it looks EXACTLY like Smash Bros. So what? That's a GOOD thing.

B. Wait, we get a confirmed Fat Princess but no Jak or Spyro? Well, I suppose it wouldn't be Smash Bros without a few withheld awesome characters and a few obscure one's that no one cares about.

C. And how 'bout Cole McGrath or a Chimera, while we're at it? And I guess we'll take Nathan Drake if you've got him, but I would really prefer Sully...

D. Seriously: JAK. SPYRO. GET ON IT.

I'm sure every Nintendo fanboy is angry about this claiming they invented cross over fighting games just like Nintendo 'invented the analog stick'.

We'll just not mention King of Fighters or every system before the 64 here.
I'm Nintendo fan and I don't mind.

The industry only wins. Fifa has been better since PES showed up.

I hated the small light that appears bording the characters, the maps looked ok.
Nintendo fan does not mean nintendo fanboy, tooottally different worlds

Glad I'm not the only one. The game looks fun as hell.

I want Tombi (or Tomba, if you must) to appear in this! I can...uh...bite things and use a blackjack to smack people! Woo!

I have to admit, the level with the giant worm (hydra perhaps) looked like it had Ratchet and Clank style floors, so yay Ratchet!

Actually, I think what you're referring to is the first level from God of War. It's on a ship.

The PlayStation brand has a unique legacy and history.

Why celebrate it with a clone of a NINTENDO game?

I've been reading Nintendo fanboys complain about this and mock it as a SSB ripoff just because the idea of an inter-unviersal mashup with the stars of a certian console's legacy is obviously derived from SSB, but I really felt they just needed to shut up and accept that Sony has the right for their own take on the concept, as they have eighteen years of PlayStation history to draw from and have the right to celebrate it.

But now that I've actually seen it in action, I honestly can't believe how much of a blatant copy this game appears to be of Smash Bros. If i were to have been shown this out of context on April 1st, I would have thought this was an elaborate prank.

That being said, the Nintendo psychofans still need to hush up about this. It's not that big a deal.
