“I can't see a thing!”
Left Eye, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Welcome to my user page! This little place isn't as funny as Lanky kong's or as informative as Pokémon DP's, but it's still worth reading. Well, at least in my humble opinion. I have Äs to offer, as well as Ös and Üs, and – currently very hot, and only from Germany – ß!

Facts about me

What is there to say? When you've read the top of the page, you might have come to the conclusion that my name is Cobold. This isn't Mario-related in any way. Also don't try to look that word up in a dictionary.

I joined the Super Mario Wiki on January 22nd, 2007, and became a Patroller on June 12th, 2007. On September 3rd, 2007, I was promoted Sysop. On January 26th, 2008, I became one of the wiki's three Bureaucrats. For less important info, please see the Userbox Midi Tower.

Monobook

Join us! Make your monobook skin black to save energy and to save your eyes! Feel free to copy my skin.

Smash Bros.

The character I played most in Melee (as of current stats) is Young Link, 2nd most played is Zelda. The character I can play best with is Yoshi, for reasons I don't know.

Template:Spoiler The most anticipated game for me is currently Śũpĕŗ Šmäŝħ Břøş. Bŕãẁł. Sadly, the game will be released in Europe in June. -.- In the meantime, I'm doing some core analyzing of what we can await from the game, seen in this chart.

The scale for the characters includes Sheik, Zero Suit Samus and counts the Pokémon Trainer as three characters - what he effectively is. Brawl offers a very good amount of characters, and there should be one for every taste at least. It's pointless to whine about who didn't get in, not everything's worth to get in, and not everything is worth little enough to be put into a pure commercial game. ;)

Stages - generally, the stages follow a basic layout, and the historical Melee stages follow it. For example, the Melee Corneria stage got scaled down to be roughly the size of Norfair - for good or bad. The game features historical sites such as World 1-1 from Super Mario Bros., and adds latest areas from Nintendo's recent games, such as the Bridge of Eldin from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, released December '06, and Shadow Moses Island from Metal Gear Solid 4, which is still unreleased. But there are also obscure stages and gimmicks as seen in the Flat Zone stage of Melee, like the PictoChat stage or a stage in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker graphical style. But that's all nothing compared to the possibilities that the stage editor and the daily downloadable stage will give the creative Smash Brother.

There are many modes and collectibles in Brawl, which guarantee for endless fun - and use endless memory, 128 blocks excluding custom stages, screenshots and replays of fights. Brawl, Special Brawl with more functions than ever, Wi-Fi connection, Classic Mode, All-Star, Tourney, Rotation, Stadium with Target Smash, Home-Run Contest, Multi-Man Brawl, the Coin Launcher mini-game, and, and, and... This all is topped by the Subspace Emissary adventure mode, which, at second look, wouldn't even be needed to make the game fantastic.

Characters

I currently have few ideas on how the characters will turn out, how they will feel when playing them, but this is due to be filled when I get the game (which can be some while still).

Characters who I think will be good:

  • Link
  • Yoshi
  • Captain Falcon
  • Ike
  • Samus
  • Zelda
  • Toon Link (why, change the name in the translation! O.o)

Characters who I think will be average:

  • Mario
  • Luigi
  • Bowser
  • Peach
  • Mr. Game & Watch
  • Kirby
  • Marth
  • Fox
  • Falco
  • Wolf

Characters I don't know how they will be:

  • Pikmin & Olimar
  • Pokémon Trainer
  • Dedede
  • Meta-Knight
  • R.O.B.
  • Lucario
  • Sonic
  • Pit
  • Lucas
  • Wario

Characters which won't be that good:

  • Pikachu
  • Jigglypuff
  • Donkey Kong
  • Ice Climbers

Characters which could have been left out:

  • Snake
  • Ganondorf
  • Ness
  • Diddy Kong

Stages

Mario Series

Delfino Plaza
There had to be a Sunshine stage, and this looks like one of the best solutions, though Ricco Harbour would have been a better choice. Great design for a great game, what do I want more?

Mario Circuit
Here we go! Mario Sports games are great, so a stage for them is good to see. However, if Shy Guys turn out to be more dominant in this scene, and will arrive at the stage at regular intervals, it loses some of the instantness of Onett's cars which could come out of nowhere and ram players away.

Mushroomy Kingdom
Old games turned old - interesting concept. This might bring back good memories from the original Super Mario Bros. - when it doesn't scroll too fast so that you don't have time to look at the scenery.

Rainbow Cruise

Rainbow Ride
If the music is better remixed than in Melee, the whole stage will be better. Otherwise, though the Super Mario 64 course was the best of all, I don't like the stage very much, it's moving.

Donkey Kong Series Yoshi Series

Rumble Falls
Icicle Mountain in a new, better look. Still, Icicle Mountain is by far not my favourite stage, so this stage will have to offer something different as well.

Jungle Japes
A good stage in Melee. Subject to the same size problems as all other historical stages, but still a classic.

Yoshi's Island
Comes in a Yoshi feeling and will have a Yoshi feeling. Nothing spectacular after Yoshi's Story from Melee and Yoshi's Island from the original Smash Bros. Seasons might will the background this time.

Yoshi's Island
The stage with the hidden trap for those who concentrate on their opponents too much and disregard the stage. Same as Onett - I hope it doesn't get scaled down.

Wario Series Luigi's Mansion Retro

WarioWare
This stage doesn't let the players concentrate on the fight, but rather on the stage! Not that that's bad.

Luigi's Mansion
Though the stage is a must as a stage for Luigi, the breakable tiles rather destroy the feeling of the game. The real mansion didn't get destroyed, the effect was unneeded.

75m
I never played the original game, so I don't know what to think about this stage. For being the first successful Nintendo game ever, the first ever Mario game etc., this deserves a stop, though I'm not sure whether a stage would have been needed

Mario Bros.
A classical game, even more than Super Mario Bros. 2. The stage takes the total control over the fighters, as K.O.s are hard without the Mario Bros. enemies. The opposite to Final Destination, for good and bad.

Zelda Series Ice Climber

Bridge of Eldin
Nice choice for a Zelda stage, had epic moments in Zelda TP. Completely flat and still not boring. Though in the videos I've seen, the bombing of the bridge will get quite annoying.

Windwaker Stage
Awesome design for a Windwaker stage, truly represents the game. This will be a very interesting stage to play on.

Temple
Good Melee stage, definitely worth being in Brawl. What else is there to say?

The Summit

The Summit
This stage is changing itself completely, but does better than Castle Siege - I believe. May the game tell me how it really is.

Metroid Series Animal Crossing Series

Frigate Orpheon
Metroid stages where definitely needing something different from the Brinstar layout, which didn't get better through Brinstar Depths in Melee and Norfair in Brawl. The only Metroid game I've seriously played was Metroid Fusion, so this fits better for me.

Norfair
A bad copy of Brinstar and Flat Zone from Melee - nothing really interesting on the stage, but features annoying harrasses which come out of nowhere. Lost the nostalgic feeling from both previous stages, but might still be good to play on.

Brinstar
Blah, same as Melee. This should turn out better than the Norfair stage as it has destructible parts and generally looks less artificial.

Smashville
The stage itself is pretty simple. There's a need for those stages after all those with special effects and this and that. And yet, the real-life time might be something to look forward to. A different stage at different times.

Pokémon Series Fire Emblem Series

Spear Pillar
Strange place, definitely something new for a Pokémon stage. I'll still have to see how it feels. At least not a third Pokémon Stadium.

Pokémon Stadium 2
Basically the same stage as to the right, but with different environments, which should be good. Also, you now can see Pokémons in the background - Pokémon Stadium will stay the easy stage for Training Mode, forget Battlefield.

Melee Pokemon Stadium.jpg

Pokémon Stadium
The same thing with different changes. Not exactly spectacular, Poké Floats was an interesting concept and this is simply a copy. But I didn't expect anything else from the creators, it's just a matter of taste on which to play on.

Castle Siege
The concept looks interesting, but it currently failed to catch my eye.

Kirby Series Star Fox Series

Halberd
I generally don't like moving stages, but this has a nice setting and some environmental changes. Like Mute City, I guess.

Greengreens.jpg

Green Greens
I liked Fountain of Dreams better, but a second Kirby stage is better than nothing.

Lylat Cruise

Lylat Cruise
A quite general stage which takes its gameplay elements straight from Battlefield. But the background is promising, there will definitely be more action ongoing than on the various backgrounds of Final Destination in Melee.

Corneria
This was great in Melee, but as it got scaled down it lost some of its feel. Might still serve for good battles.

F-Zero Series EarthBound/Mother Series

Port Town Aero Dive
Basically Mute City in a new look, nothing surprising. If the "Aero Dive" part wouldn't have been scrapped in German altogether, I would have promoted Æro Dive though. ;)

Donkey Kong and Ice Climbers fighting in Big Blue.

Big Blue
Was great in Melee, though it is bound to suffer from its smaller size in Brawl. But I guess it's still worth some fights.

New Pork City
Three words: long, big, strange. Definitely one of the more obscure stages. We'll see how it turns out in gameplay.

Onett
Was good in Melee and will stay good in Brawl - unless it gets the same scale-down as Corneria.

Pikmin Series Kid Icarus Series Game & Watch What the Heck Series

Distant Planet
Pikmin feeling seems to fit well into this stage, though I'm still unsure how it will turn out.

Skyworld
I wouldn't call the stage's entire concept original, but the destructible platforms will teach fighters not to smash everywhere they can. Sounds promising.

Flat Zone 2
Appears to be Flat Zone with different games featured on it. So apart from the expected changes, this is still the good, old stage where you can get kicked off very easily. Classical.

Elektroplankton
I have no idea where this is from, but it looks like yet another innovative stage design.

Metal Gear Solid Series Sonic the Hedgehog Series Nintendo DS

Shadow Moses Island
I don't like Snake, but this seems to fit his personality best - a dark area, sometimes it's snowing, strange objects in the background. Best feel for the wo... I mean Snake.

Green Hill Zone
I don't know Sonic games, but this stage seems to fit him best. It looks nice to play on. Sonic music on it is definitely to anything from Nintendo.

PictoChat
Awesome stage, definitely worth to play. PictoChat rules, and I don't even own a DS to know that!

Super Smash Bros. Series Stage Builder

Battlefield
Basic stage, basic layout, known one. It got better with the background and the day-time change, so this is a solid stage to play on.

Final Destination
The German translation of this made me laugh (this was untranslated last time): "Letzte Station". That, quite litterally, means "final station" of a train.

Custom Stage
Yes! This is what I've always been looking for. Beware of my craziest stages ever!

Music

Brawl contains tons of music (30 times a regular game!), here just some good stuff: <youtube>Xy78rfPm2fY</youtube> <youtube>-9fKk1A65Rk</youtube> <youtube>rWxzPXGY8C4</youtube> <youtube>IzxyZujUaac</youtube> And, of course, the best of them, especially for heavy battles. ;) <youtube>zEB3cmX4Uxw</youtube>

File:MP3BOX.PNG Mario Party 3 Not what you'd expect. The duel boards are pointless. File:X mark.png

Quotes

In no relation to anything, just too funny to forget them.

Template:LLQuote

Template:LLQuote

Mario (species)

Marios are identical mustachioed human race who love to play with each other, or any Nintendo characters including the real Mario. They first appear in the upcoming game called, Mario's Mirror Mania where he is divided into eight of them with many colors.

Biology

A Mario's best feature is his moustache, which keeps him cute and playful. While playing with him, you'll pull his moustache, stretch it back and let it go to drive him nuts. Just like Mario, his species use to jump, run, slide and kick their way. They probably hug and take care of each other while they have white gloves, along with their color. Marios also have eyes, these are related to Mario's. He himself has blue, and the others' have different colored, except for the others in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

File:FireMarioCostume.jpg

Outfit Pigment

The color of their hat and shirt can be anything, even black and white. They can change their color by grabbing a fireflower, and yet their colors are related to Yoshis or the Neopets from the Neopets website. In the Super Smash Bros series, a player changes one of a Mario's five or six colors when they chose him. In the upcoming game Mario's Mirror Mania, Marios had abilities depending on their color and Mirror Mushrooms. If a Pink Mario gets a Mirror Mushroom, it could hurl love-hearts at foes. If a Green Mario gets a Mirror Mushroom, it could use earthquake. Their overalls' color is in conjuction with their clothes, except their pair of brown shoes; a red Mario has blue overalls, a blue Mario has pink overalls, ect.
