Well it sounds fun. Guessing it will take around 3-5 seconds for it to fully take effect or else it wouldn't be much of a fight for it. It's at least longer than a second based on the Pacman trailer

Here's what's weird about an item like that. It only gives you the score bonus if you hold it long enough. But you're likely to only be able to hold it for that length when your opponent is KO'ed and knocked off the stage. So the S-flag gives the player who already did a winning move an even bigger advantage.
I felt the same way about the Dragoon. You would KO your opponent and be rewarded with all the Dragoon pieces falling in your lap.

I think that's a wonderful item. And from the trailers shown with this item, people are aimlessly holding it up and frozen in place, meaning they're vulnerable to getting hit at any time. I doubt it's going to be a free item, there has to be some catch to it, much like the Home Run bat now.

And not even a mention of Meta Knight. Never change, Sakurai. 
But damn, it's crazy that the S Flag is basically a 1-Up in Stock matches. I'm shocked that they didn't just, you know, go with a 1-Up Mushroom for that... but I digress. That's neat!
I can see even a lot of item users turning this one off, though, for the same reason that they turn off recoveries. I might be among them... not sure yet. Usually I play with all items except recoveries and the Starman.
Well, I guess it was too much to hope for that we'd get two veterans in one week. I still fully expect and assume we'll be getting Ganondorf for Thursday's pic!

You don't deserve to have a balanced game if you play coin match.

The S-Flag gives you a stock or KO point if you hold it up long enough. Are people going to chase after it like the Hammer and the Starman?
Yeah, I'm actually pretty curious how he'll handle the updates from 3DS release up to Wii U release. We better have not one 3DS pic unless it involves connectivity...

I'm sure we joked about many things over the weekend.
Don't forget Daybreak on High!

Pikachu's expression is hilarious.
Disappointed that they didn't reveal Ganondorf.

I said wow
This basically explains Sakurai's attitude toward all the haters. :lol
Oh yeah. That + Dragoon for a true collectathon clusterfuck.

I called an item
Sakurai reading GAF example 37. Replace Special Flag with 1-Up Mushroom and it's exactly what we were talking about a few days ago.
Broken.
Pic of the day. If you manage to raise this Special Flag for long enough, an additional KO count will be added to your score in a time match, or you'll get an extra stock for a stock match. When this appears on the stage, the fight for the flag becomes a fierce battle of tactics, which makes things pretty interesting.
this will change EVERYTHING

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Hyrule Warriors is a disappointment, Smash will be too. 
Yeah. I like this implementation waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more. :lol
At the same time, if anyone though assembling Dragoon or sniping Smash Balls was heated... There will be blood in the streets for this one. :lol :lol :lol
Edit: Yay melodrama!

We've got Mega Man and Pac-Man. Now way am I gonna be disappointed with this roster.
I'm just not expecting many more newcomers.

Brawl 2.0 it is then!
What, you don't like the newcomers so far?Hyrule Warriors is a disappointment, Smash will be too.

At least Smash probably won't have an OC character Donut Steel taking everyone's movesets

Special Flag, Dragoon, Daybreak, Pokeballs, Starman, Smash Ball, Assist Trophies on high
throw in cuccos for maximum chaos

and on that note I wish we could adjust item spawn rates more than None/Low/Medium/High (seriously what happened to Very Low/Very High in Brawl?)

I was horribly dissappointed with the 3DS and many of its games before Sakurai's last game, Kid Icarus: Uprising, came out. I'm expecting the same for the Wii U and Smash

Was R.O.B revealed before release in Brawl?
Which character are you referencing?
