Kool-Aid man quoted as saying "OHHHHHHHH-YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH"
Here's how we know. Somebody (with no name apparently) sent IGN cube a Q&A question. Matt responded to it. Now, mind you, this is the normal procedure. But something came out in Matt's answer that was quite, how shall I put it, lubes the cube(actually BayouTapeworm came up with that).
Hi IGN crew,I'd like to know what the possibility is of a few of the following games to make it to GameCube.
3. Smash Brothers Type game BUT with characters outside of the Nintendo Universe (examples: Mega Man, Sonic, Spiderman, etc.)
Matt Responds:
3. A Smash Bros. sequel is underway by HAL. I've heard nothing of a similar styled game using such characters as Mega Man, Sonic or Spider-Man, though, and I wouldn't hold my breath for one like that if I were you.
So that's it. Super Smash Bros 2 is confirmed. Great day in the morning!
UPDATE: Sources close to PlanetGameCube state that Nintendo is very interested in brining the Smash Bros series to the Game Boy Advance. Yippy!!
