Why does Japanese Ashley sound like, half the age of English Ashley?
Well, whatever. I've never heard the song before, just that it has some satanic lyrics backwards. I should definately try that sometime.
Oh yeah, blah blah blah, Cook Kirby.

Hey, this update reminds me; remember the "subliminal messages" that people claimed they founf in Ashley's Theme way back when? Ha ha. Good times.
Wohoo! Kirby's Final Smash!
Hahaha, awesome. I didn't expect Ashley's theme to get in, it sounds pretty good.
And it sounds like Kirby's Final Smash's purpose is moreso to produce food than deal damage… though I'm sure it'll still do a decent amount.
Hm. Wonder why they didn't put a version of the other song on the English site.
Fuckin' funny song. Ashley seems like she'd be a humorous character.
Why does Japanese Ashley sound like, half the age of English Ashley?
Dubbed females almost always sound older than their Japanese counterparts, except in cases where they intentionally try to preserve the voice, like with Hinata.
Most Japanese women have a higher-pitched voice, is all.
EDIT: That, and she looks fucking five years old.
Thw only thing that saddens me is this pretty much guarantees the return of DK RAP
Oh man, Kirby's Final Smash looks like so much fun. And by the looks of it, I guess this also confirms the Maxim Tomato and the Warp as items.
And the music update is surprisingly awesome. I hated the original song when I first heard it, but this arrangement kicks all kinds of ass.
<still waiting="" for="" kirby's="" final="" smash="" while="" copying="" a="" character="" to="" be="" the="" fs="" of="" that="" character,="" even="" if="" it="" wouldnt="" make="" sense="" with="" ivi="" char="" squir="" kirby,="" or="" gia="" bowkirby,="" lack="" swords="" link="" kirby="">Good update, we are finaly down to one last known update of things from the first two trailers:
I think that the last info of the old trailers and the fact that there are medium/to big events nearing october, (I don't know if november), it is not so crazy to spect another full fleged trailer, less than 40 week days and 8 weeks for the day of smash.</still>
Hah. Man this update has made me want to play Kirby Superstar again. Anyway, that and the music make for a solid update.
If anything, this shows that Kirby might be one of those characters [Peach] that can sneak Items into a match that has Items set on None.
If we get a trailer, it'll be at whatever Wednesday event people are talking about.
EDIT: By the way, there's a special song on the Japanese site for today's update. It's under the section for Kirby's Final Smash.
Wow, finally a Kirby update! I'm now satisfied till Capt Falcon comes aboard.
And the music updates are pretty cool. Never heard the Ashley song in any form and it's really catchy. I totally need to pick up some Wario Ware games when I finally get a DS…. Whenever that is lol.
There's a WarioWare for both the DS and the Wii.
And for the GBA, I'm totally aware. However, who knows when I'll get any of these. I want a Wii for Smash before release, but apparently there's gonna be an insane amount of demand during the holidays. And DS has almost been an impulse buy for 5 months now. It's much more likely I'll get the DS version before the Wii version. Lack of money ftw!
I recommend all of the WarioWare games actually.
It's kind of funny how different the JP lyrics are. Here's a translation from GFAQs:
! Everyone's most popular person in the world
(It's all about her) ASHLEY
Everyone turn around to see her glance
(It's only natural for ASHLEY, that's me <music note="">)
! Everyone has an admiration throughout the world
(It's all about her) ASHLEY!
The great ASHLEY's magic is so supreme!
(It's a PARTY tonight!)
! (EnOre Bmu N, it is a laughter spell)
(Si O I Ra Wn, what could be that spell?)</music>
I only included the parts covered in the song
Edit: …hahaha I found out something else that's fun.
I googled the female vocalist's name (mostly because I was wondering what she looked like), and I found her myspace:
August 27, 2007 - Monday
Em does Character Voice for new Nintendo Game & signs with DRAMATIC ARTISTS AGENCY, L.A.
Current mood: determined
Category: Jobs, Work, Careers
Its exciting I'm finally getting into more Voice Over & Character Acting jobs. I've always wanted to do this sort of work, ever since "The Little Mermaid" came out & I could sound just like Ariel, I thought "Wow, I could do that for a living. How fun!".
Well, this job is a start to the Resume. The Nintendo project was really fun to do. I got to sing the theme song of Ashley, a teenage, goth, witch, in "Super Mario Bros Smash" where all of the Nintendo Characters Brawl against each other. It was really fun creating her voice just from a description of her character on paper. Fortunately, Nintendo loved my audition and Voila~ I got the job. The producers were great to work with and let me run with my creative ideas which made it especially fun and rewarding.
So basically this song was confirmed as in over a month ago (nobody really knew it though)
SUPER MARIO BROS SMASH
Both songs are fine. The Japanese version is more generic, while the English one focuses on the fact that she's a witch.
The biggest difference is that she sounds very withdrawn in the Japanese version, but the English track makes her sound very open and mouthy.
Yay! They've finally added Kirby's kick-ass Final Smash! The music update was actually very cool and interesting: is it possible that Ashley could be a playable character? Her theme song isn't used in Wario's WarioWare stages. Ashley's theme is only used in her stages. Sorry for being Captain Obvious here. :P Perhaps this is a hint?!
That's not really a good sign at all. It could very well be an alternate theme for the WarioWare stage we've seen.
Wouldn't mind her being playable, though. She could focus on throwing potions and making funny abominations.
So no Jimmy T. ???
Shucks.
So Kirby's FS sucks you into his Pot? THat is awesome lol and the music Updates rock. Like Both Version's :3
Yeah… I kinda doubt Ashley'll be playable. And I realized after talking with a friend that this might mean they'll put Mike's theme in as well (which would be awesome).
I'm personally hoping for Bright Idea Boogie.
Very nice remix, probably my favorite.
Definately like a song about making pants big over the odd, generic-y teen idol Japanese version.
EDIT: So do the other countries get the English version?

Wow, you think someone would've seen that before today. Awesome find.
Honestly, I was surprised too. But I think it stems from:
Her being kind of obscure.
The people who look at her Myspace most likely wouldn't care.
I like how everyone starts commenting on it today, telling her how she has the name of the game wrong, so in response she edits the post to say "Super Mario Bros. Brawl."
And she got the name wrong. :P
So, when is that conference tommorow? Has any mention of Brawl been made or is it just "CAPCOM IS HAVING A CONFERENCE!"
Not sure when the Nintendo shit is happening. There's supposedly going to be an event in North American and Japan, so.

remember that. spooked me when I heard it.
I think both versions of ashleys theme sound cool.
and glad to see Kirby chef attacks are back in the Nintendo series
After looking more into Ashley, she'd be a funny playable character. Am sort of hoping she'll be in the game now.
I've always held out for Dr. Crygor, myself.
He'd be a cool assist trophy, if not.
game needs some Jimmy T and Jimmy P
It would be great if they made Mona,Jimmy T,Ashley,Orbulon,Dr.Crygor,and 9 Volt appear playable or Assist Trophy
Yeah, there is a Nintendo media event tommorow.
Haha it cost a shit load of money. To go to the con. It's like 50$ to go in. haha I might go tho.
I bet you can only play as Mario and Link
^Paying 50-200$ to go and play games they better have freaking more characters :E
<making myself="" feel="" beter="" for="" not="" having="" any="" chance="" of="" going="">Probably is the very old version of Brawl that Kojima and Sakurai played this april, nothing spectacular, only snake vs mario, a very VERY old beta… Record everything that you do in that both pleaseeee!!</making>
@Cap'n:

Am only rooting for Ashley because we already have her theme, despite that not bein' a good reason to put her in.
Not too familiar with any other WarioWare characters.
Im up for Ashley being in SSBB.
BTW I will be attending that Convetion so yea It is gonna be hella awesome! XD
@Cap'n:

I always kind of hated how you could only choose like four people in a demo.
(remembering Tekken 2 demo.)
When I think of Ashley being a character I think of the witch girl from
Red Moon who was on Pocket Fighter.
She'd probably be like Bulleta [B.B. Hood], if anything. Running around, throwing shit at you. That kind of stuff.
I just remembered that I know someone who cosplayed as Mona from WarioWare, and her sister went with her as Ashley.
Wonder if we'll see Mona as an Assist Trophy, considering her relationship with Wario.
… That almost sounded like a Naruto pairing post.
@Cyringohn:

Hmm, I always saw her as a Tessa clone. (found out teh name.)

Wario has no time for women, their is garlic to eat, boogers to pick (he better do this!), and cash to make!
Anyway, I kinda was hoping another Wario Ware character could be playable. 9-Volt having other Nintendo-inspired attacks would be neat. Or hell, have him use Nintendo Systems as attacks!
I normally just lurk on these forums, but the Brawl section has been keeping me entertained for some time so I thought you all might like this bit of info:
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG CONFIRMED FOR BRAWL!!!
IGN is reporting it as I type this. So I expect today's update will be all about the Blue Blur's Smash Debut. Also, Brawl has been DELAYED IN JAPAN UNTIL JANUARY. Don't know what this means for the US release, so we will see…
Here's the link: http://au.wii.ign.com/articles/826/826130p1.html
Until Smashbros.com or Nintendo says so, I'm going to remain skeptical about Sonic…
IGN doesn't count as a reliable source for me...
Wow so it's confirmed. Neat. Our 1st 3rd party since snake. Seems there's new trailer as well. If were lucky we may get that.
Sonic Sonic Sonic!
Can't wait to make him my punching bag <:
Yeah, until I hear it officially, I'm not buying it. PLEASE let this be fake.
