...or his grasp of the nuances of the english language isn't as robust as it could be.

The part "If you wait a bit..." implies that the drawing happens automatically, probably along some sort of preset path.

it would be DAMN COOL though if you could draw your own stage.

Oh shit that sucks. You're right- I read it as being five different maps PER character.

It totally sucks and it's inexcusable.  Would it be too hard to make maps for 40 characters (assuming there are 40)?  No.  No, it wouldn't.  I am disappointed by this cut corner.

Hahah, great update.

"So yeah, Target Test is back, oh and by the way YOU CAN RECORD YOUR FUCKING MATCHES AND CAPTURE THOSE EPIC MOMENTS OF SMASHITUDE FUCK YES."

I agree that it is kind of lame that there appears to be 5 Target stages total for all characters... I guess we are getting spoiled by all these awesome features that when they decide to slack off in one area it is OMG WTF GAY.

who actually gave a shit about the target stages in the first place, beyond being a means to unlock secret characters? (here is a hint: no one)

Yeah, that sucks. I am hoping that this guy just doesn't speak English very well and there's five stages per character... It SORT OF sounds like that. Also the Replay thing is cool I guess but I dunno.

Also Dapper they're not having 40 characters?

It might be that by "five different stages" he really means THEMES. Like, in the screen shots, one is kind of mountainous, another is grassy, and the other is a desert. Perhaps there are just five different basic stages, but the geography and location of targets changes significantly for each character to suit their unique abilities. I'm really holding out that it isn't just five static stages.

In Melee, there were a lot of targets that you could only reach with that specific character due to their abilities, like in Link's and Jigglypuff's levels. They really made you think about how you used the character. If you take out the tailor-made aspect of Target Test, it kind of defeats the purpose.

Edit: I can already tell that Wario's stupid fart move will be one of those super-annoying things my more immature friends will do incessantly because they think it is hilarious. (We already sometimes use Link's or Fox's Up + B exclusively (and shout literally "UP B" when we do it), and call Luigi's Side + B the "flying penis.")

I don't know of any source that confirms the amount of characters that will be in the game.

Don't be a spoilsport. There's definitely no reason there shouldn't be at least 40 characters (I only used the number as a general assumption).
Then again, we have 5 target stages now, so I can see being shorted on characters too.
It does kinda defeat the purpose though doesn't it? I especially liked Ness's target stage, cause you had to guide the thunder to get a few of them. Guess that's not necessary.

Probly means that Luigi/G&W won't be unlocked that way this time.

Woot!  King Dedede being in makes me happy, although I never would have guessed he'd be a playable character ^_^

Yeah, I figured Meta Knight would have been the only new Kirby character, but perhaps they have a new Kirby game in the works and want to see how much people like the characters.

I'm just thinking out loud.  He might be fun to play.

That's immediately what I thought too, and I would be 100% okay with that.  Kirby rocks my socks off, so a new Kirby game would be fan-damn-tastic.

Anyone else think he looks like he's been drawn by the artist from Beckett magazine?

Didn't Kirby already have an aerial move that used his hammer?

Does he still have it now, or what?

Edit: One of the screens shows him with it.   :hmm: I wonder what power Kirby steals from Dedede.

DeDeDe's most prominent feature is his hammer. I assume that the hammer is the copy ability from DeDeDe, but there's no way to know yet!

They've been working on a new Kirby game since near the end gamecube, now its suppose to be a Wii game, which pisses me off so much my anger burns with the fires the a thousand suns(i bought a GC just for the damn thing).

Anyways, this is the best update ever, i think i may end up only playing Kirby characters in this game...

Fuck YES! I really really wanted DeDeDe! And by his original theme...you mean the one in the first Kirby game?

Anyway this is really awesome, I hope they include Mt. DeDeDe or DeDeDe Castle as his stage. gfgfgfgf This is so fucking awesome. SO AWESOME!

EDIT: Also I was worried that King DeDeDe wouldn't get included. I kinda doubted it. But I was stupid for doubting such an obvious addition.

Ya, the one from the original. Or the gameboy one anyway, that's the first Kirby game I played so it's the one I remember :(​.

I hope they include his boxing ring as a stage. Would be a nice basic stage with short walls so extreme horizontal smashes wouldnt work.
