For almost two years, there was nothing that lit up the internet faster than the promise of Japan Time, when the Smash Bros. Dojo would update with new information about Brawl. Even after Brawl finally released worldwide, the Dojo still kept updating with plenty of in-depth game info.
Now, everything's explained, every stage and character profiled, and it seems that it's time for the Dojo to shut down. The notice that the site would be going into archival mode was posted April 14th (or, yesterday). I'm pretty bummed out, as the updates provided a lot of fond memories. Remember when Sonic's profile went up? When you first found Snake's codec videos? Watching the initial E3 trailer ad nauseam?
Anyway, when a good friend passes on, it's time for a virtual wake. What was your favorite Dojo feature? Me, I got a huge kick out of the complete sticker and trophy lists that went up recently. I never would've bothered to unlock all this stuff, but seeing lists of who they chose to include (and exclude) from various games was pretty interesting. The final Trivia post is pretty badass, too.
