Wii Warm Up: Meeting expectations

Japan, you have it; North America, it's coming soon; Europe and PALS -- sigh. We're talking about Super Smash Bros. Brawl, of course. We've been talking about it a lot lately, in fact. With all the awesome developments, modes, characters, stages, smashes, and everything else, the game seems like everything we've been dreaming of. We're sure it will have a smattering of good reviews soon, making us even more excited.

But, does that ever worry you? Do you think you might get to a point where there's so much hype, and you're expectations are so high, that no game could possible meet them? Not even the great Brawl? Sometimes, when you don't think much of something to begin with, it can pleasantly surprise you. When you expect a game to be one of the greatest you've ever played, though, it has a long way to fall.

Is anyone worried?
