Template:Infobox Super Smash Bros. Brawl is an upcoming fighting game for the Nintendo Wii. It is the third game in the Super Smash Bros. Series, the sequel to Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is scheduled to be released in the United States in 2007.
It has been confirmed that the game will make use of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
Gameplay
The game will be controlled with one of the four controlling methods:
- Wii Remote
- Wii Remote & Nunchuck Attachment
- Wii Classic Controller
- Nintendo GameCube Controller
A new battle mechanic will be the Final Smash, that is triggered by the collection of a Smash Ball. Another new battle mechanic is that players will be able to walk and jump while using projectile-shooting items, like the Super Scope.

- Kirby (of the Kirby series) - Warpstar symbol

Music
Famed Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu contributed the main theme of the game. It is unknown whether he will be composing additional tracks.
The official Super Smash Bros. Brawl website lists a total of 36 composers to work on music for the game. Uematsu is not listed. [1]
A remix of Menu 1 from Super Smash Bros. Melee will be used for the stage Battlefield. The official website recently revealed a track called Yoshi's Story: Ending, which is a remix of the ending music to Yoshi's Story. It also features Yoshi's voice during the track. The website hinted at Yoshi being in the game on this page and also showed Yoshi's logo next to the song, thus almost proving Yoshi will be in Brawl.
