News: Co-op Confirmed For Brawl

Today, the Smash Bros Dojo reveals that the single-player campaign will be available in co-op mode...
The single player adventure in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, The Subspace Emissary, will be playable by two players.
As you progress through the adventure, you meet up with other characters and form teams. In single-player if you die, you are revived as another member of the team. If you die again, you will respawn again as the second member of the team. Before you begin a level (by selecting it on a map screen - see sreenshots) you can set the order of your team. The stock count is individual for each level, as opposed to one set lasting the entire adventure. You can also select a difficulty for a level, from Easy to Intense.
In co-op, the camera follows player one, with player two following. If player one goes too fast, and player two goes off-screen, they will be brought back to player one via a space jump. If player one loses all their lives, it's game over. Player two, however, can lose all their lives.
The harder difficulty you select, the more rewards you will get. Sakurai also mentions some new way of powering up characters. More on that some other time.
