You may find the Frigate Orpheon stage to be vaguely familiar, as it's one of the spaceships that Samus infiltrates in Metroid Prime. Of course, something is bound to go wrong, like, say, the stage flipping over on you. After a siren sounds (well, at least there's a warning), you'd best prepare to have everything invert on you, since the stage will flip a full 180 degrees. With some caution and good strategy, the flip can be a nice way to pick off a scrambling enemy.
Also added today was Porky's theme from Mother 3. We think that this militaristic tune is a nice fit when it comes to beating up some folk, but maybe that's just us.

I'm glad to see Metroid Prime being represented in Brawl, considering that it isn't too popular in Japan. This stage looks like a lot of fun to play, and a huge improvement over the Kraid stage in Melee in my opinion.

i didn't like Brinstar Depths, even though it was very easy to get a Star KO if you and your foe were at the uppermost point
But if your opponent got stuck in some ridiculous position (like somewhere on the bottom), and you were stuck on top, stock matches could get very boring

Yeah, I was really happy with this level update. I was hoping that Metroid Prime would get some representation in Brawl, so needless to say I'm pleased as punch. I would have preferred a different Prime area, maybe Phendrana Drifts with some Sheegoth action, but still, any Prime at all is awesome.

Everywhere I go, people are saying they'd rather have a Phendrana Drifts level, and I have to agree. It'd just be so much cooler (pun not intended).

That's actually Kraid in the background, but that's neither here nor there :)

I loved this part of MP1 and the way the gravity moves is cool but does this open the door for a Super Mario Galaxy level?

spoiler update is spoiler
No seriously, the MOTHER3 music update description is a spoiler. Of course NoA doesn't care.

As excited as I am about SSBB, I really do hate it that NoA teases us with Mother 3 posts while refusing to even address releasing it here.

Hmm...flipping stages eh?
Super Mario Galaxy level, please.
gravity switches, a couple sling stars under the platform, star bits that explode into random powerups, and we're good to go.
