I just got all characters over the weekend.

Freaking Awesome.

Sooo many stages too, and I'm not sure how many more to go!

Snake is my favorite, Wolf and Marth are tied for second though.

Oh, and there's a real easy way to unlock Snake, other then subspace.

I like my Lucario. I have a strange habit of getting around 200% and never dying. Other than that, Sonic is my favorite solely because I knew all his capabilities long before getting Brawl. And, I've played enough Sonic games to control Super Sonic at any speed.

I played last friday at a friend's house

Sonic's my favourite of the new characters. Snake's fun in 3+ person brawls when people might not notice you putting mines down or tossing a grenade. I have trouble with him up close though. Pit and Olimar are pretty fun.
Ike's a monster, though I spent more time facing him then playing him. His standard special move is the ultimate edge guarder It even looks like he's doing the gandalf "You shall not pass!" thing. Also, he keeps stealing the smash ball with aether. Honestly, who goes around throwing their only sword at things?!

@Fireweaver: Surprisingly I had an easier time with a single wiimote than a wiimote+nunchuck. It was more like to the gamecube controller for me although a lot more uncomfortable. Maybe you should try that until you get your GC ones.

This is just a small idea that I had, but maybe we could make a Clan for the Smash Brothers population of Lusternia?

This would make it easier for making tournaments and communicating during those tournaments since Nintendo doesn't have a voice-chat capability. Sure some of us might have to run back and forth between computer and TV, but it might make any tournaments we perhaps could hold a little easier.
