Japanese only characters in Brawl: Your thoughts

[parrothead]

Most likely, DeMille will not have his own stage whether he will appear in SSBB or not. He's probably about as popular as Ness, before Ness appeared in SSB64.

Some of the areas in the Ketchup Kingdom, the main area in Tomato Adventure are:

• Kobora Village / Kobolei Village (where DeMille's home is located)
  
• Chichikaba Forest
  
• Mayonen Land
  
• Namp Lagoon
  
• Ois Town
  
• Tall Tall Valley
  
• Soy City
  
• Balsami Dome
  
• Gimmick Palace
  
• 6 Hanzo Labs
  

These names might not be correctly spelled, but they were found in this Walkthrough/FAQ. The Japanese Wikipedia article about Tomato Adventure has the names in Japanese, and I've already made a translation request.

Nobody answered my question! ;_;
What would be a likely level if Demille would be in Brawl? Mostly, I'm asking those who have played "Tomato Adventure"...

Dude, only a few of us have played it. The majority of us cannot speak Japanese. Why not give out ideas instead of beg for them...

[rukifellth]

Well, it is playable even if you don't know japanese! There is a walktrough that is a great help for portions of the game. It also tells you parts of the story when necessery. That's why me and parrothead knows one and another thing about Tomato Adventure's story!

Oh and of all the areas, I think Chichikaba forest is the most likely one to become a level. Altough they would translate it as "Chichkebab forest" considering all of the areas afection to food:

Mayonen (Mayoness), Soy (Soy), Balsami (Balsam) etc. etc.

1)Many of use don't want to buy a game that isn't in English. Something is lost if you read a guide
2)Get a ROM
3)The name will probably be different then you think. If he is in there, NoA will probably change the name a lot.

Okay, so why would this level make a good stage? The point of giving out ideas is not just saying the name, but also descibing it so others can agree with you.

[Fryguy64]

I agree there. This looks suspiciously like....
A LIST!!!

And we all know what happens when lists appear. I start foaming at the mouth and pressing lock and delete post buttons.

[rukifellth]

Huh? It's nothing special about it... I'm just guessing around...

[pener]

I just dicovered something but I'm not sure if I understand it correctly. I was looking at that japanese website that somebody gave link to some time ago. I've pasted the comment about Sukapon in a translating page and i getr something like that:

Protagonist of joy mechanic fighting spirit. It is something which remodelled the robot for laughing to field type. To tell the truth, appearance of スカポン itself it had been decided at point in time of スマデラ, but it was cancelled by right problem. But, the memorandum where sealing for copyright transfer is not pushed at the home of the river crossing over person of the programmer who very recently, at that time participated was discovered, because of this, joy mechanic fighting spirit became the Nintendo Co. trade mark formally. As for details this (obtaining and diary). Not only Sakurai, because also Eto of the writer desires the participation of スカポン, in the outdated character quite participation probability is high. When we assumed that it participated, you can expect the skill such as コンナンイラヘン and the like. By the way, because it seems that plans the specification that at point in time of スマデラ, each キャラ embarking to スカポン, to rage, it can turn,, perhaps it comes out as an item. * Point & wine mail order & short-term byte * suffering link SEO consulting

So Sukapon wasn't possible for Smash bros becouse of some copyrights problems which are now solved?? Or maybe I just don't understand it properly - its late already

EDIT: Here is the link to that site link

[Fryguy64]

Gah, the Japanese website needs more citations and references. I don't know where all that info came from.

[Flip]

Sounds like they're citing Sakurai's "I don't like Sukapon" comment as well as stating that he would've been incredibly likely and popular otherwise. The developer thing intrigues me; something else to research.

My god, if I applied this much interest and concern to my studies... ;p

EDIT: JAPANESE WIKI GET!

First thing I noticed is that the correct name IS "Joy Mecha Fight," so folks can stop calling it "Joy Mech Fight" anytime now.

Also, Dev. and Publisher are listed as Nintendo. However, it sounds like the original team wants to make a sequel WITHOUT Nintendo and thus the rights are either up in the air or Nintendo squashed their plans by buying up the rights (which makes less sense, but the article doesn't make it clear thanks to Google's craptastic translation)

[parrothead]

I've made a translation request for Joy Mech Fight, but it hasn't been signed and started by Thinkbeforeyouclick, yet.

[rukifellth]

Hmm Sukapon's demise might increase Demille's chanses!

[Manspeed]

You bastard! You're actually advocating Sukapon's death in favor of your own greedy desires!?

Meh, I'm not really that upset. Just being dramatic.

If anything it hurts DeMille's chances. Sukapon is the more popular character overall, and was about to be added in Melee. It may mean that Sakurai isn't for these characters with little impact.

Also, Robert it's color=003366.

Ooh, I hope this guy was telling the truth. I'd loves me some playable Sukapon.
