Team Mario arrived and they were STACKED with all-star power : Mario,Luigi,Yoshi, Peach,Donkey Kong,Diddy Kong,Bowser,Bowser Jr,Wario,and Rosalina. Rosalina and Bowser Jr were the new members of the Mario line-up. As always, the photographers got the entire Mario team together for a group photo,which the Mario crew had done since the first brawl in 1999. Once the shot was taken,the Mushroom Kingdom representatives would head to there rooms and part ways. They would rejoin as a team in trainings and would fight on the battle ground to determine the best fighter of the Mushroom Kingdom.

Shortly after team Mario came the lone representatives of Mr Game & Watch,Samus,6 Mii fighters (2 from each class,1 male and 1 female fighter per class), Olimar,the Wii Fit Trainers,Villager, Shulk, Ness, ROB, Captain Falcon, Little Mac,and Duck Hunt Dog. The media took a group shot of them. They headed to their respective rooms. Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi came as a group in their Arwing fighter jets. Some of The media did have the nitpicks of not having Wolf join the roster,but others were glad he was gone. The Fox and Falco duo gave every media member the same thought : without Wolf O'Donnel in the Star Fox lineup, Fox and Falco could FINALLY possibly fight against each other at any given time.

Shortly after Fox and Falco left, the Pokèmon representatives came in : Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Charizard, Lucario, Greninja, and returning from a 12 year slumber was MewTwo, which got the media all excited for the Pokèmon as they took photos. It was glorious to see MewTwo back for everyone present.

The Pokèmon left and then came Robin, Ike, Marth, and Lucina to represent Fire Emblem. The media was impressed with the line up as they recalled the last 2 brawls, Fire Emblem sent 2 characters to the past two brawl tournaments,but now they doubled up their lineup. Which was really cool for the media,even the group shots of team Fire Emblem were epic.

The Fire Emblem team left and Kirby, Meta Knight, and King Dedede appeared as the official team Kirby members. The media was a little disappointed because they hoped Kirby team would send 4 or more fighters,but it was better to have 3 than just 1. The group shots were brand new but kept that same feel they had 6 years ago.

Shortly after the Kirby team left,the media heard the trumpets of fan fare and they clearly new what that meant,Pit was back again; however,he didn't come alone, Paulentena came with him,along with Dark Pit. the 3 person group shots went nicely,and the Kid Icarus team representatives were welcomed by the media.

The fan fare died down and all was quiet for a while and it seemed peaceful and the members of the media staff were talking to one another… until the main theme of Zelda blasted onto the speakers,then the media got to their places to get the photos. Once again,like 2008,Zelda, Link,and Ganondorf were the representatives for the Zelda team. The photos felt like they came from 6 years ago… but something was different,they clearly had a new feel to them. The media relaxed and went back to their chats for while… until…

3 portals opened up and the media jumped to feet and into positions, a heavy rock feel came from the first portal… like it was the main theme of Mega Man 2… which it actually was… it resulted in the reveal of Mega Man. The media went nuts. Pictures of Mega Man,the music,and Mega Man was smiling and said "Thank you all for the warm welcome!" He gladly posed for the pictures. Then everyone stopped and Mega Man looked as they heard the classic intro of Pac Man in all of it's 8 bit arcade glory… and lo and behold,it was Pac Man who stepped out of the portal. Mega Man? Pac Man? Mario? The media was buzzing like crazy. A few of the media members pointed out one character was missing : Sonic the Hedgehog. Only then would the the battle of the icons commence. The media gave all the attention and took a lot of pictures of Mega Man and Pac Man…

Until they heard that heavy guitar riff… it sounded like "Sonic Heroes" by Crush 40… and everyone looked around confused as the portal turned blue and then Sonic came flying from out of nowhere as the song ended. Mega Man walked over and said "Sonic? Is that you?" Sonic jumped up and said "Let's roll!"

Mario went to get a sandwich and as he entered the lobby he saw Pac-Man,a great buddy of his,Mega Man,who he never heard of or met until today,and then he saw Sonic. Mario greeted all of them. Sonic nodded and said "6 years and 4 Olympic games later and you're still smiling Mario. It's great to see you again. Mega Man! Long time,no see!" Pac-Man said "Hey,you know what I realized?" "Mega Man said "Wait! It all makes sense… we're icons… and all 4 of us here means…" Sonic picked up right where Mega Man left off by saying "That we might have a battle among us to determine the best!" Sonic,Mario,Pac-Man,and Mega Man all agreed for group pictures. This was history in the making.

After that photo shoot,the media went about their business and interviewed fans who showed up to watch the brawl,the fans had no clue who was in and who was out. A few knew for a fact that the Ice Climbers weren't coming back. Sonic didn't know who was coming back from the tournament he joined.. Once Mega Man,Pac-Man and Sonic all settled down,they talked about how've they been doing,what they were up to,and getting excited for the kick off Media Week,the week where the media interviewed the brawlers,filmed training for brawler documentaries, radio, TV, internet, and newspaper interviews would follow,and then be capped off with the opening ceremonies.

Every event would lead up to the big day everyone waited for : Introduction Day,the day where the brawlers were announced and songs were played,even the announcers were gonna join the fun. Mega Man and Sonic couldn't sleep. Mega Man was way too excited and Sonic was not only excited,but he would also lose speed if he did. This was promising to be greatest Brawl Tournament in the history of brawl.
