It has been confirmed that the game will make use of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

Gameplay

What Super Smash Bros. Brawl is compatible with.

The game will be controlled with one of the four controlling methods:

• Wii Remote (Turned on it's side)
• 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.

Stages

Mario and Wario fighting in Yoshi's Island.

• Angel Land - Pit's homeland. Like the Hyrule Temple from Melee.
• Castle - A castle of unknown origins. Possibly Hyrule Castle, but uncomfirmed.
• Mario Circuit - like Mute City from Melee, it has Shy Guys driving across occasionally as they did in Mario Kart DS as an obstacle.
• Halberd - Meta-Knight's ship, like the Corneria and Venom stages from Melee, it flies in the air.
• Helipad - Snake's stage.
• Delfino Plaza - A moving stage, comparable to Mute City of SSBM
• Yoshi's Island - Yoshi's Island on the basis of its appearances in Yoshi Touch & Go and Yoshi's Island DS.
• Battlefield - The stage will feature different daytimes.
• Pokémon Stadium - like the one in Melee, its terrain changes.

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.
