Brawl storyline written by Final Fantasy VII writer

That's right! In the newest "Iwata asks" collumn on Wii.com, more information is told about Brawl's storyline. It is also revealed that the story for the "Subspace Emissary" was written by none other than Kazushige Nojima, who wrote the plot for Final Fantasy VII. He has also written such great stories as Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy X. The first storyline that he came up with for the game was not as expected.
"Some of the characters are on a bus on the way to the stadium. Samus is there. Donkey Kong is there and Snake is watching the bus from afar." This story was quickly thrown away, because creators of the game wanted a more serious tone. In the end, Nojima worked together with some other staff to form the now completed "Subspace Emissary."
