Classic mode returns to next years Nintendo hit. This time around, it appears that each stage is based upon another level. According to the update, Level 1 is The Legend of Zelda, and Level 3 is Pokemon.

It wasn't exactly something that anyone doubted would happen, but hey - we still got it.

This is the classic single-player mode—hence the name, Classic.

In this mode, you try to clear each stage as you go.

Choose your favorite character and a difficulty level, then start the match!

Fight whoever appears!

The world you fight in is pretty much determined based on stage number. Stage 1 is based on The Legend of Zelda. Stage 3 is based on Pokémon. And each time, the characters are chosen randomly.

You’ll also find the status of enemies and rules of the match vary slightly to include things like Giant matches, Metal matches, and Team battles.

Heart icons indicate your allies.

So... You just keep playing until you reach the end. Easy to understand, right?

Huh? You’re wondering what the coins on the Stage Clear screen are for? Um, you think they’re there to make it look more lively?

No, no. You earn and save these up little by little as you play. And supposedly you can use them somewhere. But no—you don’t use them to shop.

    This game sounds more appealing day by day. I do wonder what those coins will be used for though! It's great how those modifiers can be enabled in multiplayer "Special Brawls" too.

    Hmm...last the coins were used to buy trophies from the Lottery. I wonder what they will be used for this time. Anyways, Classic mode looks great! Didn't doubt it for a second.

    ANOTHER update? We've basically released the game over the Internet.

    I refuse to read the article itself, I skimmed through the posting, though. I'd really rather not hear about the game until it's released, instead of feeling a stinking feeling when all of this stuff never happens.

      Never happen? =/ I'm sure they wouldn't post it on the Super Smash Bros. Brawl official website, with pictures, if it wouldn't be in the game...

      On the plus side, I'm glad it returned, though I didn't have any doubt that it would. I wouldn't mind seeing All-Star mode return like in last year where you unlocked it after clearing Classing and All-Star mode with every character in the game.

    I loved classic mode in Melee, I'm glad it was shown even though it was obviously going to be in. I think the coins will be used for more than just a trophy machine this time, you might be able to unlock stuff like stages if you get a certain amount.
