Smash Bros. Brawl Includes Video Replay Sharing

Related Topics – Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Alongside online multiplayer and Sonic the Hedgehog, Nintendo's mascot fighter Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii) will feature the ability to record and save up to three minutes of video. As explained on the official Smash Bros. blog, these replays can be sent to other Wii owners through the game's online functionality. A similar mode was recently included in the cultural sensation known as Bungie's Halo 3 (X360). It has since spawned countless video clips of some entertaining and some not-so-amusing moments, the highlights of which are regularly showcased in our Replay Couch column.

With Brawl implementing such a popular and community-oriented feature, expect the internet to be flooded with astounding Smash Bros. feats in the weeks following the game's February 10 release in North America.

Is this some huge "experiment" Nintendo is trying with console games? Not only online deathmatch but coop and replay sharing are features that we've never seen from Nintendo (except on certain DS games).

It's no wonder this game was delayed. Practically every day for the last two months they've announced a new feature, level, or character. I'm betting the next character will be the Kitchen Sink. He may not seem a terrifying opponent, but watch out for when he turns on the insinkerator.

This is just immensely awesome, especially after Halo 3 Theatre proving how fun/useful it is. I'd honestly be fine if Nintendo held this to next summer just to add/refine stuff.

One thing though - the replays appear to be JUST for the target mode. I didn't see anything about recording VS matches (although that one screen clearly is one).
