Smash Bros. spoilers all over web

Wii News | You may want to steer clear of the internet for a while...
In what appears to be a near overnight explosion of information, early release copies of the Japanese Super Smash Bros. Brawl has seen overly eager fans spill forth the spoilery stew of their fortunate purchases across the internet -- in as many images and videos as they can muster, at that.

While we're mainly using this news post as a friendly advisement to stay away from practically any and all online Smash Bros. discussion for a long time to come, we also sympathise with all those PAL folk who simply cannot wait any longer to see what awaits them in what will arguably be one of the greatest franchise crossover fighters yet.

Consider the following paragraphs semi-spoiler free. While we won't specifically point out anything that could be deemed as a spoiler, we will provide the linked means to attain such information. Playing devil's advocate makes the release date come sooner, don't you know?

Heck, even our own forums aren't safe from the onslaught of impatient Smash Bros. fans (and really, who can blame them?), with already one thread specifically dedicated to as many spoiler ridden images participants can hunt down and post, with another thread likewise slowly losing control of any Smash Bros suprises towards its latest tail end.

Of course, the Smash Bros. spoiler euphoria isn't exclusive to our forums. For starters, Scott Ramsoomair (of VG Cats fame) has uploaded a whole series of images taken directly from the game, while the ever resourceful users over at the GameFAQs Super Smash Bros. Brawl board do their best to provide their own links. Naturally, NeoGAF isn't to be out done in such circumstances, with an epic thread of reveals and whining in the making.

All three sources confirm and reveal, among other things, secret characters, arenas, and Subspace Emissary story mode events and situations otherwise best left hidden from patient prying eyes.

However last, but far from least, multiple resourceful YouTube users have gone one better than the Super Smash Bros. Brawl introductory video that was leaked yesterday, and have posted a whole slew of spoilerific videos recorded from the game, that at the very least, complement the content of the images making the rounds, and then some -- in some cases, at 14 minute lengths.

With more and more outlets getting their hands on a Japanese copy of the game, expect more variations of revealing web content in the coming days. If anything, it's certainly amazing how quickly players have managed to wring out the 'main' secrets of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. While there's no doubt that there are still further delights yet to be discovered, one thing's definitely for sure -- with assumedly less than three more days of 'fresh' updates left, the daily surprise one felt with Nintendo's Smash Bros. Dojo has been long forgotten.

Secret characters, levels that haven't been revealed, trophies etc...

Anyone who has played a Smash Bros title before would be aware there is a heck of a lot that could be spoiled.

The game also has a story mode. If every other game's story is considered spoilers, Brawl's is as well.

So can you confirm the PAL release date? I mean, if we're going to be waiting 'til July, then I may as well order the US one.

Oh and for all you people with PAL Wii with Wiikey, Don't bother importing it. Its got a new copy protection which will not play on PAL Wii at the moment. Its also got a gold underside which may mean it is a DVD9. Interesting huh?

The release date come from our product data provider (DVDfeed). Since there's no date from Nintendo, I suspect it's just an estimate based on previous conversion times for similar games.

Strange thing this spoiler race people get involved in, i don't think god gives you any credit for blurting out stuff and walking around with a smug look on your face,
"i told everyone before you" icon_clap.gif
Who knows maybe satan does (recalling how badly The Darkness was spoiled for me icon_evil.gif )

Here you are sir, a shiny medal, a bikini model and 12 doughnuts for being the first to ruin the game for people

(note to self : spellcheck wants satan to have a capital S but it lets god escape with a little g)
