Kristoff119 Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 If anybody has seen the new EGM and has read the codes section about SSBM then they know that both sonic and tails are in the game. When I read it I almost had a heart attack. to get them this is what you have to do: First you achieve a high scoreof 20 KOs with any one character in cruel melee. Sonic and Tails will then both challenge you at the same time. If you beat them they will both become playable characters. Finish classic mode with either of them for a special surprise. It does not tell what the surprise. Tails will appear on the left of pichu and sonic on the right of roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Break Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 [SIZE=1]Aw god, I almost belived it for a moment then, and then I thought that Sega couldn't be in SSB:M... ... Although it would be cool if they released a kind of, Capcom Vs. SNK 2 for the Nintendo, but it would be like Nintendo Vs. Sega. Would be cool... oh yes... it would be...:sleep:[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlepoop Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 i tried this, but I was only able to kill 10 people in creul melee and I can't get past 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristoff119 Posted February 25, 2002 Author Share Posted February 25, 2002 I am sorry to have gotten all of you rowled up, but I have just noticed something in one of the screen shots for the game. Once you unlock them the game says that sonic and tails have now been added to the melee, but at the bottom of the picture it says the date and time, 4-1-02, this was an april fools joke by egm. My friend told that they did this last year. It was a code for Goldeneye. To Kuja and ShadowGohan: Yes nintendo could use sonic and tails, but they would need the permission of sega.

Kuja Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 [SIZE=3][FONT=century gothic][COLOR=crimson]yes nintendo would have to have paid to have them in it... and they only pay for DK cause he is oringinally nintendo and they half own him anyway lol[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 I hate those EGM April's fools tricks. They do a darn good job of making them look convincing. Anyone ever see that hidden Akuma character for Resident Evil 2? Those evil people.... But yeah, if Sonic was in the game it would be advertised. Nintndo would be fools if they didn't hype up the battle of gaming's titans. My bet is that when Sonic [B]does[/B] appear in the game, you'll be seeing it on the cover of the game packaging.

Fall Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Well with Super Smash Bros. on the N64, it has the pokemon Pikachu and Jigglypuff, wouldn't they be copyrighted by Pokemon? ...ugh, all this is confusing me.. :worried: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 [color=indigo]I got that issue of EGM just today, too, and I also almost had a heart attack... I dunno... The screen shots that they have look like they're real. Especially the one where it's actually in game, fighting... I'll have to try this out, though.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristoff119 Posted February 26, 2002 Author Share Posted February 26, 2002 Nintendo has no rights to Pokemon, it just has an alliance with gamefreak so that one of their biggest franchise on the gameboy doesn't go to any other system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuja Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 [SIZE=3][FONT=century gothic][COLOR=crimson]my understanding is... Nintendo owns GameFreak therefore owns PKmon as well... kinda like HAL labratories the people who made SSBM. where as sony and square have an agreement... im pretty sure nintendo actually owns PKmon cause if you look at the card game it says nintendo not gamefreak...[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Solid Snake Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 [COLOR=teal]Ugh, there are always a few that will believe anything, and I am glad that you later realized the truth. Already, people have given great explanations as to why there is no way that Nintendo would be allowed to place Sonic and Tails in a fighting game that allows NINTENDO characters to "duke it out," if you will. May I provide a few more? 1) If there was any way to get Sonic and Tails, it would be in the strategy guide of Super Smah Bros. Melee. Don't see it? Ah, this may be a clue. 2) If you look carefully at the pictures of Sonic and Tails on the character choosing screen, you will see that they (especially Tails) look much more 3 deminsional than the other characters. The duo also have more of a shadow. 3) On the screen shot of them "fighting" Luigi and Yoshi, you can see the tip of Tails's ear in front of the platform. Looks like a job for cut and paste! 4) If you really wanted to get specific, just compare Sonic's head (used to refer to his lives) from the one on the character choosing screen, to the one in the arena. There is defenitly a difference.[/COLOR] :blah: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still going to have to get a score of 20 kills on Cruel Melee, though, just to prove it... Even though I don't really like the Multi-Man Melee modes... I live in northern California... I doubt that it has anything to do with being on the west/east coast, when it comes to when you get your magazine. My friend lives in the same city as I do, and he gets his issues of Nintendo Power about a week later than me. And besides, EGM is already a month ahead... It's a few days 'til March, and yet I have the April issue of EGM... And I'm still waiting for the March issue of Nintendo Power.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desbreko Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 [color=indigo]I don't think this is on a website. It wasn't on EGMs website, and I don't think it would be anywhere else, since it was in EGM.

shibatku Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 I dislike cruel melee because its hard to beat even with a starong character its pretty tough I tried oince didn't like it so I haven't tried since. As for the other melees they're child's play to beat. I could beat them in my sleep! The cruel melees pretty tough to beat I haven't.(Yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
