The wait for Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been one of the most excruciating waits in gaming ever. It’s not due to the delays or anything like that, but the way that we’ve slowly received Dojo updates bit-by-bit-by-bit ceaselessly for months and months has my blood pressure rising. This latest news development ain’t helping, either.
The infamous Japanese magazine Famitsu has given Brawl a perfect 40/40 review score. While at first glance that doesn’t appear to be particularly noteworthy, you should know that the mag has given out a perfect score only six times previously. The others went to Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Soul Calibur, Vagrant Story, Zelda: Wind Waker, Nintendogs, and Final Fantasy XII.
Additionally, many a scans have of Famitsu have appeared on NeoGAF illustrating characters, their moves, and lots more – albeit in Japanese.
Through clenched teeth, I’ll point you towards our recent coverage of Smash Bros.’ latest delay, Snake’s Final Smash, Sheik’s reappearance, Captain Olimar, and some recent Japanese TV commercials.
Now do you see why I’m freakin’ out?
