Super Smash Bros. Brawl Characters Leaked

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed.

Have you been wondering which characters were going to be fighting it out in Super Smash Bros. Brawl? Well let WiiSpin quench your possible character knowledge thirst. Below you’ll see a supposed screencap from the Japanese release of the game which shows all of the available characters. Personally, I don’t believe it.

Super Smash Bros. Characters

If this screenshot is real, looks like about 44 characters will be playable in the game. Any characters you wish were on that list or better yet any you wish they had left off? Let me know what you think.

Note: Don’t get to excited… as this image is more than likely a fake.

Updated: As I initially expected, this image has been proven to be a fraud.

(Screencap was taken from a video at GameTrailers.com.)

    It still upsets me greatly that yet again, Waluigi has been left out…..at least as far as I can tell….He’s in every other current mario game (strikers, Mariokart double dash, even mario dance mix….however, he’s been left out of super smash bros….

  2. 2 ebee

    This is a fake screenshot. In the trailer on gametrailers, there is a question mark that floats by over this screen. I mean.. come on… Is that Batman??

  3. 3 ricko

    It seems like it could be real I guess but if it is I actually find it disappointing. Baby bowser sucks, star wolf and krystal arent that popular in my opinion and there arent enough weird obscure ice climberey characters. Oh, and king k. rool sucks too.

  4. 4 luis

    this roster looks cool but i think instead of that olimar guy they should of added mega man or zero

  5. 5 Jeremy

    ebee: I took the screenshot once the question mark had past..

  6. 6 ebee

    Jeremy: Well, obviously you took the screenshot after the question mark. O_O;; I knew that. I meant to imply that the question mark over the screen was there for a reason - indicating the unsure/unconfirmed nature of the screenshot used in the video. This same cap is on multiple blogs, Kotaku being the most notable, and even they have admitted it’s probably a fake.

    i think its fake for sure now. king k rools pic is the same as the one on wikipeida.org. i like to think they would have at least put him in a different pose.

    I don’t know if this is fake or not, but WaLuigi is in it as an assist trophy, I believe. I know he’s not a full on character, but that’s something. Plus, he hasn’t actually been in an actual real mario game. DDR and all the sports games don’t count, cause they’re basically spinoffs, as well as Mario Party. If they make a game where you play as Luigi and then Waluigi is the main villain, then he’ll be more of an official character. As of right now, though, he’s not much more than a filler character to give equal status to Luigi as Mario’s bro, like making Daisy to be his girlfriend to be the counterpart to Peach.

    Possibly still a fake, but it looks WAY more real. Also, better resolution, all the characters are feasible and look as they are supposed to.
    Oh yeah, the english helps.

  10. 10 super smash bros brawl review

    Looks pretty fake to me, but not a bad job at all by the fakers.

  11. 11 Tonberry

    It’s so easy to see that this is fake!
    In the roster Zelda and Sheik actually is on the same picture.
    OWNED, faker!

  12. 12 Maxime

    Its not batman its black bull from F ZERO

  13. 13 kirbyman

    It is clear that this a fake. If I am wrong I will personally apologize but c’mon young link is cell shaded? As if

  14. 14 Fetus

    Fake, no Falco. He’s been confirmed. (he’s in videos of the game on youtube)

  15. 15 Austin

    This is definitly fake. Who ever thinks this is real must have gone insane.

  16. 16 unknown

    this is fake zelda and shiek r in the picture together jap is not out anyway

  17. 17 Game_Observer

    This may come a bit late but if you compare this screen shot to the one released on the official website this morning (1/30/08) it is pretty undeniable that this is a fake. The creators of this fake didn’t even bother to use the same avatars that the real games does for Kirby or Link nor do they bother to pay attention to where the characters are placed in the row and column in comparison to the real version. But then again there probably isn’t a person on this forum who hasn’t already come to the conclusion that this is a fake. It is interesting; though, that Lucario, Ness and Jigglypuff are considered confirmed characters due to someone’s observation of their avatar on a brawl demonstration video. I saw the pic, it’s a bit fuzzy but it is pretty clear that at least Lucario and Jigglypuff are going to brawl come March. In terms of characters I would really like to see Mega Man and Ryu placed into the fight. I think both could have an interesting effect on the game. I wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo hid another third-party character from fans, waiting to be revealed by gamers gone blogging.

  18. 18 Jose

    this is fake zelda picture should have a shiek on it

  19. 19 Anon

    hmm u no… i wonder why japanese wud use english names?

  20. 20 khoa

    hahahahaa, this is so fake
    not the real charater slect screen btw
    also there is 35 characters not 44

  21. 21 Guest

    This picture is obviously fake. The placement is off on some of the characters, according to the official Select Screen photos, and Zelda’s Picture is ALL WRONG. Her picture shows her AND Shiek side by side in her Avatar. So this is obviously fake.

  22. 22 pissed of guy

    hey kid who thinks megaman zero should be in the game, ur a homo a big fat fucking homo. You faggots don’t understand it costs money to use characters that aren’t orginally nintendos characters. Just cuz olimar doesnt look the same as every homo character thats why u said that. Hes more unique and is better then fucking megaman zero. so fuck u kid.

  23. 23 dude

    I think that having Banjo and Kazooie on brawl would have been the coolest, but it’s probably not meant to be considering that Microsoft bought the rights to rare, speaking of which, another banjo kazooie sequil is coming out on Xbox

  24. 24 Omg

    Wtf?Ok whoever thought the wind waker version of link would be in brawl is a complete loser. Compared to all the graphics they have in this game i dont think they would put some stupid idiot in…….

  25. 25 Ashton

    FUCK, if midna’s not in the game i’m going to go insane. I’ve heard so many rumors that she would be and I got so excited, but man, I guess she’s not.

    ugh

  26. 26 lowlevelowm

    Wind Waker link is in the game and so is a stage from wind waker

  27. 27 lowlevelowm
  28. 28 solo

    You guys all suck this is fake because on a different web site there is the real list of charecters.

  29. 29 sam p.

    personally i think banjo & kazooie should be in the game. OK so they are not that popular but if you have pplayed their games their moves would be great and they would make an awsome duo like Ice clinbers. Oh, and baby Mario & Luigi would be an other awsome duo.

  30. 30 banjokazooie

    banjo & kazooie should be in this game. so should baby mario & luigi. these duos would rock.

  31. 31 shlong

    theres also no random button and on the official site they talked about the random character button

  32. 32 Marine

    Okay, who the hell is going to believe in that shit of a screenshot? People, THAT IS A FAKE!
    1) Some of the images aren’t even 3-D (and by reports and recent japanese videos I have seen, ALL IMAGES ARE FOR CHARACTERS ARE IN 3D!)
    2) That Monster Trap king, or whatever his name is, IS NOT IN SSBB (as a matter of fact, that king is a trophy)
    3) Midna, Krystal, and some of the characters in this screenshot have absoultly no chance in SSBB
    4) Batman? BATMAN!? Ok, that made me laugh so hard my ribs burst. Just ebcause Sonic and Snake got into Brawl, doesn’t mean, and I mean, DOESN’T MEAN that BATMAN IS IN BRAWL! That is probably FAR out from the range of a crossover! And here’s a question; if Batman is (but isn’t really) in Brawl, then wouldn’t Superman or Wonderwoman be in Brawl too? Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?
    5) Luigi’s image is from a Mario Party image and his 3D animation compared to Mario’s flunks, it’s a full proof (and one of the proofs) that this screenshot is a FAKE.
    6) It is proven that Zelda can change into Sheik and her alter ego is next to the image of Zelda
    7) Now everyone should see this and I laugh at them in pity because they didn’t look at this; Link’s WW style is totally NOT 3D. Yes, Link’s WW is an secret character (whoops, I said a spoiler xD) but the image is 3D
    I can go on and on and on but it seems that it has been said to be a fraud. If that is so then why haven’t you got rid of it? Hmm? Have you realized that people (and I mean stupid people) are gwetting confused and they say that THIS is actually the characters of SSBB? Dude, be smart and get this fucking thing off!

  33. 33 guy111

    check smashbros it has ALOT of info

  34. 34 guy111

    by the way i want ridley this sucks

  35. 35 guy111

  36. 36 Jeremy

    guy111: To be quite honest I can’t really make out who this character is…

    Also FYI: Shortly after I wrote this article this character lineup was proven to be inaccurate.

    Feel free to ask as many questions and comment on as many things as you want.

  37. 37 guy111

  40. 40 Mnkyboy

    How come it says Bowser’s name is Koopa? This is a fake screenshot. Jeremy, please tell me why bowsers name just suddenly changed to Koopa

  41. 41 DKfanatic

    First of all youtube is a site where you can do whatever you want with a video and half of their videos are fake. Also a few of the characters are drawings nintendo would do a better job than that. I also don’t believe this one because I have seen over 30 fake screenshots with characters like Tom Nook [Animal Crossing] and Tingle [The Legend of Zelda]. I can confirm
    Mario
    luigi
    pokemon trainer
    Sonic
    Diddy
    Pikachu
    Lucario
    Jigglypuff
    Mewtwo
    Meta Knight
    Kirby
    Deedee
    DK
    K. rool
    Ike
    Bowser
    wolf
    Bowser JR
    Link
    Toon link
    Ness
    and Snake
    samus and zero suit samus
    Wario
    Peach

  42. 42 crazyguy

    this is obviosly a fake screen shot i mean come on it has both english and japanese. no reall screenshot would have both (i know u allready established this but u should of known from the begining).

  43. 43 gamerdude

    i belive the guy in the middle of the second row would be dark samus from corruption, you can be zero suit samus after you use samus’ finish move in battle.

  44. 44 SuperSmashBrother

    That is obviously a fake. Some idiot must have made it. Seriously, Midna Come on!!!!

  45. 45 SuperSmashBrother

    HeyDKfanatic. Tom Nook and Tingle are actually going to be in the game. Not as playable characters but as Assist trophies. Check it out at Smashdojo.com kthxbai.

  46. 46 Myself

    There will be 35 playable characters as well as a “random” selection to get a random character of those that are unlocked. To see a legitimate screenshot of the Brawl roster, go here:

  47. 47 guy111

    I heard theres a mystery character they aren’t telling us yet I think its bowserJR but he would suck.

  48. 48 CRAZY

    JUST ONE MORE DAY ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IMA ASPLODE!

  49. 49 L Is Real 24

    There are actually a total of 39 playable characters, counting the transformation characters (like the link from wind waker is on the game but referred to as “toon link”)
    I’m not sure if Star Wolf is a transformation of Fox? Not counting the transformation characters there are 35, and it doesn’t look like jugglypuff is even in the U.S. release
