The various screenshots in the update depicted a multitude of new enemies, as well as a few familiar ones, such as a [[Hammer Bro]], who was previously confirmed as an [[Assist Trophy]], and {{b|Bullet Bill|enemy}}s. There were also a new series of enemies that were introduced that are part of the Subspace army. Some enemies of the Subspace army appear to be helpful while other ones are dangerous. | The various screenshots in the update depicted a multitude of new enemies, as well as a few familiar ones, such as a [[Hammer Bro]], who was previously confirmed as an [[Assist Trophy]], and {{b|Bullet Bill|enemy}}s.

Masahiro Sakurai has stated that substantial single-player content was a core priority during the development of ''Brawl''. An adventure on the scale of a stand alone video game was decided early in development. Shigeru Miyamoto has stated that Sakurai always wanted to make a mode like this for the series, but was advised to focus on the multiplayer aspects of previous games due to the relatively short development times of previous games and there already being no shortage of single-player games. The much longer development time allotted to ''Brawl'' allowed the mode to be made.<ref>[https://www.eurogamer.net/i-miyamotosakurai?page=2 Miyamoto and Sakurai on Nintendo Wii | |||
E3: Smash Bros., Mario, more.]</ref> The initial plan was to outsource development of this mode to another studio, but no suitable contractor was available. In the end, the entire mode was developed internally by the main ''Brawl'' team. Only the cutscenes were created by a different studio.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXpFTHtlmCo&t Super Smash Bros. Brawl [Game Concepts]]</ref> | |||

The Subspace Emissary mode is a side-scrolling adventure in the style of a platformer, inspired by the {{uv|Mario}} and {{uv|Kirby}} games. However, it retains all basic mechanics of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], such as a [[damage meter]], [[stock]]s, and Smash-style attacks. It can also be classified as a beat 'em up; often stages will [[ambush|pause at specific points]] and force the player to defeat a set of enemies, which prevents one from simply running through everything. | The Subspace Emissary mode is a side-scrolling adventure in the style of a platformer, inspired by the {{uv|Mario}} and {{uv|Kirby}} games.

Stages that have been completed already can be played again, with the one exception being a stage being consumed by a Subspace Bomb; if this happens, the player must complete the Subspace Emissary to be able to access the stage again. | ||
The mode also has a two-player option. When using two players, the first player will have priority over the screen, making it possible for the second player to get run off the screen if the two players are not coordinated. However, the second player has the option to [[Space Jump|warp]] to the first player at any time (except in boss battles) by pressing the [[Start-Pause button|button that would normally pause the game]].

However, the second player has the option to [[Space Jump|warp]] to the first player at any time (except in boss battles) by pressing the [[Start-Pause button|button that would normally pause the game]]. The first player must be present with stock left at all times; if the first player is defeated with no spare stock remaining, the game will end and offer a continue. If the second player is defeated, the first player can continue alone. In addition, only the first player can navigate through [[door]]s (though the second player can still utilize [[key]]s) and temporary switches. If the second player goes into a barrel cannon or minecart they will be teleported back to the player seconds later unless the first player goes in right after. The second player can also decide when barrel cannons shoot. | ||
When playing a level for the first time, many cutscenes will pause just before gameplay begins, showing a view of all available characters. A message will display how many stock the level allows, and a cursor will appear that allows choosing which characters to play. The order characters are chosen in is the order they will appear: they will cycle through in that order until all stock is depleted. Playing through a level again, there will be a screen before the level allowing choosing between any available characters instead of cutscenes during the level. This can be both an advantage and a disadvantage: there is a wider character variety to choose from, but one cannot pick less characters than the number of stocks the stage has (meaning if a stage has four stocks, the player must choose four characters). Additionally, no mid-level cutscenes will play, including ones that would normally allow a re-pick of characters that replenishes stocks. While on many levels this makes little difference, it is very problematic on long stages like the second Subspace Bomb Factory, where a replay provides only a fraction of the stock originally given. | When playing a level for the first time, many cutscenes will pause just before gameplay begins, showing a view of all available characters.

This is the only way to play as a character’s alternate costume outside of replaying a stage where a character is battled, selecting this character as any stock aside from the first and not losing enough stocks to spawn as the character before the player activates the battle, in which afterwards the player should lose enough stocks so that they spawn as this character. This only happens in four battles: Mario/Kirby vs the character not chosen by P1, Kirby against Petey Piranha, Meta Knight/Lucario against the character not chosen by P1, and King Dedede against Bowser. | ||

Only one character in all of The Subspace Emissary ever speaks in a full sentence; in [[Battleship Halberd Interior]], {{SSBB|Snake}} directly says to the player, "Kept you waiting, huh?" after revealing himself. This is a classic line from the ''Metal Gear'' series. In ''Brawl'', it references the extensive voicework in the ''Metal Gear Solid'' games, the frequent [[wikipedia:Fourth wall|breaking of the fourth wall]] in the series, and the fact that the player had seen a brief glimpse before already in a much earlier cutscene. | Only one character in all of The Subspace Emissary ever speaks in a full sentence; in [[Battleship Halberd Interior]], {{SSBB|Snake}} directly says to the player, "Kept you waiting, huh?" after revealing himself.
