New Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii) stages, options, assist trophies, and summonable Pokemon have been revealed, courtesy of the game's official site.

Inspired by past Nintendo classics are stages based on Mario Kart's Mario Circuit (official post) and Metroid Prime's Frigate Orpheon (official post).

Meanwhile, lesser-known Nintendo characters such as the purple Luigi wannabe Walugi (official post) and the adorable Stafy (official post) show up in the form of non-controllable assist trophies that sporadically appear and wreak havoc.

Other revelations include being able to summon the incredibly dense Bonsly Pokemon (official post), a rotation game mode (official post) for when more than four players are around, the team healer item (official post), co-op event matches (official post), and the game's options menu (offical post).

Super Smash Bros. Brawl arrives in North America on February 10, with the Japanese release slated for January 28. For more on the game, check out our unbelievably mammoth main image gallery.
