It's consumed like food, but when eaten you start spitting fire. However, you can still attack normally, and your attacks become endowed with a fire element.
Haha! Classic Kirby! That item's from the original Kirby's Dream Land.
Two updates today: SNES Andross as an assist trophy, and an explanation of special moves that also unveil all of Metaknight's special moves.
Andross fires at the stage
Metaknight's neutral B move: Mach Tornado
Over B: Triple Dash
Up B: Shuttle Loop
Down B: Dimensional Cape (dodges attacks, as seen in the trailer)
Good stuff on the whole. Andross looks (really) weird, but Metaknight info is always good. He could be an interesting alt, but I'm thinking I might stick with Link if Nintendo can up his speed a little.

In the WarioWare games, you must master a variety of microgames in 5 seconds, making them the fastest and shortest games ever. You might want to look into it in more detail.
In trying to recreate that atmosphere in Smash Bros. Brawl, we’ve created an outrageous stage!

Wh-what the heck is this? What is going on? What kind of joke is this?
For each challenge you clear, there is, of course, a reward.

The typical screen looks like this.
Ah, what floor would you like, Smash?

Well, the profile was essentially ceremonial since we already know more about him than we do any other character in the game except Link.
Literally. We know all four of his special moves (more than any other character unless you count knowing three for each of Pokemon Trainer's pokemon,) we know he can quintuple jump, we know he can glide, and we know he has a special combo. We just need his Final Smash and grab and the circle will be complete.
Also, I hope they make Miis characters. Abraham Lincoln for Brawl!
EDIT: The screenshots and the trailer seem to be showing a lot of Meta Knight versus Pit. Maybe they'll be antagonists in SSE?

Double Update time. Mario gets FLUDD from Super Mario Sunshine, and the Pokemon Stadium is back.
The previous game, Super Smash Bros. Melee, featured Pokémon Stadium, but it’s been upgraded for this game into Pokémon Stadium 2.
This time around, you’ll see guest Pokémon appearing in the background.

Ordinarily, it’s a fairly orthodox stage when nothing special is happening.
But as time passes, the terrain transforms into four different types:
"Electric," "Ground," "Flying," and "Ice."
screenshot
When it transforms into Ice, things get extremely slippery!
screenshot
A mountain of earth appears in the middle of the screen for the Ground stage!
screenshot
On the Flying stage, everyone’s jump abilities get boosted!
For these four transformations, we’ve chosen types that were not present in Melee.
Terrain that changes suddenly makes fights excitingly unpredictable.
I wonder if that means the original Pokemon Stadium will be an unlockable stage.
<Down Special Move: F.L.U.D.D.>
It appears Mario has a new special move! It’s F.L.U.D.D.

He really is carrying F.L.U.D.D. on his back!

Hose ‘em down! Blast those enemies away.
It does absolutely no damage—it’s just for sending opponents great distances. You can even charge it up while shielding. It’s best used in critical moments.
Huh? What happened to the down special move he’s had up until now—the Mario Tornado?
screenshot
He still seems to have this move, though.
Eh? Is it a normal attack?!
It does no damage, but if you've hurt them enough, it may not matter.

I'm guessing that Meta Knight will be lighter to compensate for his insane recovery. Or at least, hoping. There definitely seems to be focus on aerial battle this time around.
I remember in one of the trailers that the Mario Tornado was combined with his drill kick.
Fragment of the Lord of Nightmares, release thy heavenly retribution. Blade of cold, black nothingness: become my power, become my body. Together, let us walk the path of destruction and smash even the souls of the Gods! RAGNA BLADE!

Three music-related updates today. The main Smash Brawl theme (composition supervisor: Nobuo Uematsu) we've already heard, a Pokemon Stadium track, and a new feature called "My Music" that lets you adjust how frequently a track will appear on a given stage.
The "My Music" feature confirms several additional tracks we haven't heard yet. The Zelda bridge level we've seen so far has at 4 tracks ("Title (The Legend of Zelda)," "Main Theme (The Legend of Zelda)," "The Dark World", and "The Hidden Mountain & Forests") plus a scroll arrow indicating more tracks are available.
It looks like each level will have quite a number of tracks available to play.
