That is the weirdest freaking video I have seen yet.

Does anyone realize that tomorrow is the last update we will see on the Dojo before Brawl comes out? Isn't that awesome? I am going to be at Game Zone at midnight.

[gsninja]

I'm going to be at GameStop midnight. I'm probably going to enter the tournament, then most likely play with my friends sometime during the night (Well, technically morning).

[Blink]

Fully intend to go to midnight launch here at my local GS. (2,500 midnight launches ftw!)

[Folcon]

I'm just going to wait till noonish and go then.

[Gio]

Why would you wait so long for the most awesome game ever?

[Folcon]

its the start of spring break here. I want to wait for the traffic to die off a little.

[Blue]

Well, I don't have much of a choice myself. Kind of working the midnight launch, so might as well pick it up too. xD

[Caael]

Hahah you guys would be gutted if they delayed it now. I know, they cant, they've already been shipped but would still be funny if it would have worked.

The traffic will only increase by then, or all the copies will be gone unless you live in a relatively small town.


I'll be stopping by GS around 5ish on Saturday to sign up for the tournament. Probably come back at around 8:30 or so since the tournament starts at 10, and people will likely start to line up by then.

[gsninja]

I love the update on the Dojo today. As a matter of fact, it's the last Dojo update before the game comes out. O:

[TheEnglishman]

I like the master hand move snapshot. It's kinda clever.

[Blue]

Man, when I saw the trophy of Isaac I was just like "Holy ****, that looks pretty damn good." Now they must make GS3, or we shall riot!

[Gio]

The picture of Issac was definatly pretty sweet.

[TheEnglishman]

I think it looked good. It'll probably be the only time we see a 3D version of him. (Note I said probably so don't start throwing the GS3 theories around)

[Gio]

I think it is cool that Isaac is in SSBB. I just wish he was a playable character.

[PDM]

I'm glad this game is going to own to make up for Super Mario Galaxy.

[Gio]

Galaxy wasn't a bad game. I guess it was metiocre. But Brawl is going to more than make up for that.

Seriously, only the most idiotic @#$%ING gamers would say SMG was a bad game. Say that it's not perfect all you want, say that it didn't even deserve GotY, but DON'T say it was a bad game, it's by far one of the best games to ever come out, certainly in the past few years, so don't go around trying to sound all cool by saying it was a bad game. IT'S NOT.

[/rant]

Clever update Sunday's release, I loved the Isaac snapshot.

[PDM]

It was a bad game.

[Golden Legacy]

Yeah, keep saying that. I don't know why I get so defensive about it, it's probably because I've convinced myself that everyone who says it's a bad game are just trying to get attention and getting their opinions to "matter" more instead of just going along with all the praise.

It's a great game.

And Brawl will be too, though it'll certainly sell better in the short term.

[Blink]

Brawl's a bad game.

Halo's a bad game. MGS's a bad game. Mario's a bad game.

Zelda's a bad game.

OoT is the worst game of all time.

See how much I'm helping the world?

It's really entertaining. :)

Being serious, for a moment, though. If I ever buy a Wii, SMG will be probably one of the last games I buy (if I would buy it at all.)

[Folcon]

can we get back to talking about brawl? Go b!tch about SMG in the SMG topic.

[PDM]

brb making a topic so I can bizzitch about you so I don't have to do it here

[Golden Legacy]

You guys are taking it too far, sheesh. If you genuinely believe it, then sure, just don't go talking about it here, and at least provide some justification why.

And also, I'm not just a mod guys - I'd rather be thought of as a member, like any of you.

At any rate, time we reset the poll I'd say. What would people like to see?

[Gio]

You could put a poll up after the U.S. release asking people what there favorite aspect of SSBB is and then give options like multiplayer, subspace emissary, or any of the other large amounts of content that is supposed to be in it.

Honestly, it's just another ssb game, big whoop.

ooook because I will totally be flamed for that comment, let me point out I've never really gotten into ssb, mostly for a lack of skill, so it's my fault.

But really...can someone explain what makes this edition so incredibly awesome that you guys are going to midnight releases??

The game plays differen't. It's a little slower paced with more emphasis on arial attacks. Plus, there's online, stage building/sharing, more characters, a decent adventure mode (for once).

But it's not just SSBM with some gimmicks, it's an entirely new game. Though I can see where you're comming from. And my examples aren't the best either.

I agree, really, the only reason I'm getting it "sometime this week" is mostly for social life's sake; I actually have a Wii unlike most of my friends, and I need my two best friends to have an incentive to hang with me since they're dating and are pretty much connected at the hip, and are SSB fans. e_e

Probs cause it's a Wii game and most people identify the Wii with the Wiimote.

It sounds like you didn't know it used all four possible controllers. If you didn't know, and you made that comment, then you are, in fact, ignorant of the situation. My comment is not meant to offend, it is simply stating a fact should you be in this position.

[gsninja]

I signed up for the SSBB tournament yesterday. It starts at 9:00 PM and it'll go for a while. After that, I'll pick up my pre-ordered copy at midnight, then get together with a couple friends and Brawl all night long. Yes, we planned getting together after the midnight release. >.od

Also, my Spring Break starts on Good Friday. *lols at GL because his Spring Break's ending* Nah, J/K.

[Drizzy Drake]

My Spring Break started today, so I get a whole week of Brawl. ;).

[Blue]

I only have two classes for my last quater, then I'll get my associates. Hopefully Brawl doesn't steal too much time away.

[Linear]

GS you ***. D: Play with me, too!

My Spring Break is still one more week until...yeah. x.x Spring Break.

[Toasty]

I'm leaving in an hour to go to the local gamestop (two hours early, but I'm going to be waiting with friends, a gamecube, and SSBM =D), but I might leave and come back an hour later depending on the size of the line (if there is any).

My spring break starts in April, but the upperclassmen at our highschool are taking the WASL (Washington Assesment of Student Learning) all week, so there's a 3 hour late start for freshmen. ;D It's good enough for me.

[Split Infinity]

You're going to play your GCN while you wait in line? How?

Hmm. I'm going to sleep tonight, go pick up my copy tomorrow.

Yawn.

[Folcon]

Nice Toasty. I'm going in the morning.

[Split Infinity]

Wouldn't it be smarter to bring your Wii so you can start playing Brawl once you get it?

[Folcon]

But someone might rip it off. GC is less likely to get stolen. Or at least, I'd like to think so.

[Split Infinity]

You're right. It's entirely possible that while Toasty and his friends are playing his Wii, somebody will walk out of the crowd, unplug it, then pick it up and walk away.

[TheEnglishman]

Niw that would be unfortunate, to wait all that time just to have the console stolen.

[Gio]

I got brawl it is freaking awesome but everything is a bit harder and it takes time to get used to.

[Folcon]

untill I get my hands on a copy tomorrow, I'm staying out of this topic. Starting as of the end of this post.

[Toasty]

More like someone will run by and grab it. It's not like the plugs are cemented in you know.

I couldn't find any of our portable DVD players, and I couldn't get a 12 volt battery.

However, I won my first match as Meta Knight (it was randomly selected). But using the Wii controls is HARD. Especially with Meta Knight. After the tournament finished, I just did a round of brawl with this one guy, and I used Ike the first time, and Fox the second. Both were far easier to control, but I had gotten 3 matches in by the time I used Fox.

I might try the Wii controller as I'll get used to it eventually, but the GC controller will be a LOT easier to use.

By the way, Ike truely is a freaking tank. He's a little on the slow side, but not much, and his attacks are POWERFUL. Every one of them has good knockback, and you can KO someone ith a smash after just 4 solid standard attacks. Plus, his side B has a LOT of knockback, especially when fully charged. Same goes for the standard B. He'll definately be one of my mains.

Fox is just as good as he was in Melee. Quick, and has some decent moves. I think his up smash was slightly weakended though. But not by much.

So far, Ike and Fox wil be my two main characters.

And pretty much everyone in the tourney who won a match, up until the third set of matches, used diddy. Yoshi and Diddy have probably the two best FS's out of the starters. Meta Knight's doesn't have enough knockback, and only does 30% or something. Link's is a bit better, but you'd have to have your opponent at at least 40% for the FS to KO in either case. Diddy and Yoshi's, on the other hand, usually KO the opponent after 3 or 4 hits. Plus, they both last for a good while.

and the spicey curry dish thingy lasts a LONG TIME. And it's powerful too.

The normal hammer got nerfed, and the super hammer thing bascially replaces it in terms of power. Though you can float with the super hammer, and it moves twice as fast.

Out of all the items, excluding the FS ball, the curry platter thing, the starman, and the super hammer dominate. Curry platter is overpowered IMO.


So yeah, I lost my second match BARELY against Wario. He KO'd me pretty quickly, and then I was about to go in and use Meta Knight's up smash (wich by the way won't KO until you get you opponent to 120+ damage, usually a little higher), and then I got a poison mushroom, so I couldn't really do anything. But I barely won my first match since the controls were so unfamiliar. Seriously, if you've never played Melee, or a Wii for that matter, don't use the Wiimote+Nunchuck.

[Linear]

=3 I got my game. *Gives Friend Code*

0173 - 0956 - 3957

[TheEnglishman]

The reviews I've seen suggest the game's lived up to it's hype. I've just got to wait for it's release here+the purchase of a Wii.

[Gio]

It really takes a bit of getting used to, but once you get used to the smoothness of the game you can get good fast, but if you plan on relying on your old smash skills (even with GCN controller) you better rethink it. Also about Metaknight. I have to agree with Toasty. We you use him it feels like you are doing a lot more than you really are. All in all this a freaking great game.

[Drizzy Drake]

Freaking AMAZING. I came in 7th and there were about 500 people. There was a choice between the GC controller and the Wiimote in the turney, ya, used the GC. Overall, I would definetly give it a 9.5.

Brawl is freakin' amazing. I love it soooooo much. Anyways, after I got it, I played all night and all day until now because my mom kicked me off. She says I need a break. D:

Ike is just as good as I thought he would be. <3

I have finally mastered the controls of the game. I have also almost finished SSE. I am on the very last stratch. The story mode is ridiculously long

[I'm Always BROKE]

About a hours or 2 ago I ordered both a freeloader and a NTSC version of Brawl out of an impulse. Now I'll soon rape your asses with Diddy Kong's bananas and come all over your faces with cartwheels and kamasutra moves, be prepared! :P

I believ the correct spelling is cum. Oh well.

And your Diddy Kong will bow down to his knees and suck when he faces my master Lucario.

[Folcon]

The SSE is freaking cool. Even without acctual diolouge, some of the cinimatic scenes are rather humerous. I've got about 54% completion on it right now.

[Gio]

I just finished the SSE. It took me about 8 hours and the last stretch of it is a bit annoying. I have unlocked every character except jigglypuff, and

Spoiler

Wolf

. Other than that I have all the characters. It is pretty sweet.

[gsninja]

Yeah, the SSE was a little bit longer than I expected it to be. The last part of it was a bit tedious, but still fun.

Earlier today I played with one of my friends on Wi-Fi and beat him three out of four times. I lost once because one of the sudden changes in the Warioware level caused me to suicide with Marth's FS. :|

[Blue]

I played all day and finished SSE, I think I've also unlocked almost all the characters besides Wolf and Jiggles. I played it for a few hours when I first got it with a friend. Sonic is actually pretty good, gotta get use the speed though.

Spoiler

The final boss is a pain in the ass though. Died first time on normal.

[Someone Else]

I got Brawl yaaaaay. Unlocked Captain Falcon (who I'll never use) and that's pretty much it. Apparently I'm better than I give myself credit for.

[Blue]

Lol, I used Captian Falcon in the Subspace emissary towards the end.
Falcon... PUNCH!

Dedede's side smash is INCREDIBLY powerful. ._.; I KO'd both of my friends at the same time with it barely charged, and they were at 0%. This was on the Wario Ware stage btw. But still.....

Ike will likely end up being high/top tier in the minds of smash tards. Diddy will probably end up being mid/high tier. Smae with Link. His attacks have been bolstered some. That's only going off of a few characters though.

Samus' FS is win. It's not much use in small or vertical stages though...

Ike seriously isn't as slow as so many people say he is. Even his smash attacks are faster than a third of DeDeDe's attacks (Exaggeration, I suppose. >.> But seriously, DeDeDe's FSmash is too slow for me). I've defeated two Marth players, both while using Ike, and Ike actually doesn't have too much trouble keeping up.

Seriously though, Diddy's absolutely MY character and I've put up quite some good matches against this classmate of mines who has the game for around a week now. The only character I'm having troubles with is Pit atm, but I'll find a way to rape his ass with bananas as well. ^^

[Golden Legacy]

Diddy, I'm curious - are you playing an imported NSTC version of Brawl? Also, does anyone know yet whether Nintendo has said people from different regions (i.e. PAL in Europe and Australia, NSTC in NA and Japan) can Brawl together online?

Just some information I need to know for the tournament I'm planning in late May.

[gsninja]

I think everyone can play on Wi-Fi together no matter what region.

I'm starting to think that Toon Link will be one of my secondary characters. I can't practice much with him, though, because I'm too addicted to Ike to even bother changing charatcers. XD

[Gio]

Well Gsn later today, when we fight, you can practice with toon link in one of our matches and I will practice with my secondary character.

[Caael]

Does the SE have lots of evil amazing plot twists in it, or is it fairly standard ' dilema, adventure, kill bad guy, win' story?

[Gio]

There is a pretty big SSE spoiler in here so if you don't want it ruined don't read.

It is fairly standard. The one real big new thing is the

Spoiler

Last boss. It isn't Master Hand or bowser. It is a dude named Tabuu.

Other than the is basically good verse evil

Spoiler

until the end when everyone wants to kill tabuu.

There are also some very cool cut scenes.

Blue, I'm fighting you tomorrow at 4PM Pacific Standard Time. NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Or 9AM, depending on when I get up tomorrow. We have 3 hour delays all week due to testing that freshmen don't have to take.

I gots school yo. I don't get out till like 1:30 mountain time. I'll get back home around two so we'll see what happens.

[Folcon]

way to leave out the Europeans and Australians :/

[Gio]

Well I do believe that he was trying to find that information out for you guys. He wanted to know if you could play people online that live in different parts of the world.

BTW when is Brawl released in Europe and Australia. I am sure a date for a tournament can be pushed back so we could include our European and Australian members.

[Blue]

Dang, I'm starting to get friend codes left and right. xD

[Gio]

I need some more. I only have eight right now.

[Folcon]

i only got five, and its you guys in the forum.

[Caael]

Because escout lives in the forum?

[Folcon]

for this week, pretty much.

[Mallick]

Hey, does a Wii require a wireless modem or can an internet cord be used?

[Blue]

You can use a cord, but you have to buy an adapter for it. It doesn't cost a whole lot, can easily find one at Gamestop or Walmart-esque stores.

[Folcon]

you can also pick up the USB wireless router sold in the same stores.

That's exactly it, Brawl is confirmed for a Q2 release in Europe/Australia. That means April, May, June, and likely closer to the summer time - which is why I'm planning the tournament for then.

[Gio]

BINGO!!!

go me!!!

[Golden Legacy]

Be sure to praise me with the minimum 5 words, please, Gio. :o

[Fritzy]

I probably won't have Brawl by then. :o. Hope you guys have fun killing each other.

Or you know, we could have a back to school turnement at the end of August.

[Gio]

Sure thing GL


We could do both fritz

Not yet.

I've played the Japanese version at a friends place. He went to a Melee tournament in France, and because he got screwed with the pool placements (his Ganon vs only laser spamming Falco's, ouch) he stole the guy's modded Wii with the Japanese Brawl in it.

I've imported the NSTC version of Brawl, but it's yet to get delivered. I've also ordered a Freeloader which will hopefully allow me to play the game, otherwise I'll have to get my Wii modded aswell.

[Gio]

Ok. you are definetly the ingorant prick here. but w/e.

[Golden Legacy]

It's my fault guys.

So we'll start signing up at the end of May, tournament begins second week of June. m'ok?

[Blue]

Anyone up to a brawl right now?

[Folcon]

maybe in an hour or so. I just beat the SSE and I need to take a break.

[Laharl]

using you guys as an example, the single player game must be pretty lenghty

[Folcon]

Full play through was just under ten hours. But I haven't got the 100% completion yet, or the remaining characters.

[Gio]

I just unlocked event match 41.

I am about to see how bad I die.

[Fritzy]

What is event 41?

And how many events are there in total?

[gsninja]

I dunno, I haven't bothered too much with the events. I beat the first 20 and will try out 21-28 later.

Also, I might not be able to Brawl tonight. I have a ton of stuff to do, so I'm not sure if I'll be available. :|

[Gio]

I beat event #41 on my second try. there are exactly 41 i do believe.

[Fritzy]

What were the stipulations of event 41?

And if there are only 41, this game is seeming to be easier. Easier to unlock all the characters, easier to beat all the event matches. Oh well. Multiplayer is what the Smash Bros games are all about.

[Blue]

Found another way to get Wolf. Now I have everyone. ^^

[Folcon]

there are also co-op event matches too.

[Gio]

Event Match 41:

Spoiler

Event match 41 is almost exactly like event match 51 in melee. There is a giant mario at a high level. Then there is a normal Sonic and Snake and they are high leveled, and all of them attack just you, and everyone has 2 lives.

Blue I would like to know how you unlocked Wolf. I unlocked him in SSE.

[Blue]

Play as Fox in Boss Battle Mode. I did it on easy so it must be for any difficulty

[Gio]

Thats cool.

I think the third way is to play in somewhere around 450 brawls.

[Blue]

Mmm, unlocked Song of Storms. Love this song.

[Someone Else]

Anyone unlocked the Isaac AT yet? >.>

[Gio]

Yeah I unlocked it last night. and set it as the onlly song to play on the zelda stages.

[Someone Else]

I'm assuming you're talking to Blue.

[Blue]

Nah, haven't seen Isaac just yet. D:

[Gio]

I unlocked pokemon level

Edit: sorry blue my parents made me get off for a while.

[Fritzy]

Is there a GS stage?

Sorry for all the questions.

[Gio]

not that I know of and I highly doubt it.

[Blue]

That last bout was fun. And a guy from Gaiaonline that I knew joined in. He's not bad, not bad at all.

[Gio]

Why were you playing time battle though. You should have changed it to stock.

[gsninja]

Stock battles FTW. Time battles are still nice, but I prefer stock matches a bit more.

I'm just about done with my Math Analysis homework (Thank God!) and it won't take long to study for the test, so I should be available for Brawling tonight. Wolf is actually rather cool. =D

[Blue]

I forgot to change it. xD

[Fritzy]

Isn't Wolf the same as Falco and Fox? Or are there some small "clone" changes to him?

[gsninja]

Wolf is completely different from Fox and Falco, save for three similar B attacks.

[Fritzy]

Interesting. Care to elaborate?

EDIT-Well, his FS is also the same.

nintendo sells a wi-fi USB conector that you can plug into your USB port on your computer and it acts like a wireless router for your wii and DS. I think it costs something like $35 now. not sure though, it might still be 40.

[gsninja]

Oh yeah. XD

Well, every one of Wolf's A moves are different. I don't really want to elaborate on every single one, but they're completely different. (: His Up + B is pretty different: it's an upwards kick that propels him in your desired direction while Fox and Falco's Up + B is a charging fire attack. They're not really the same.

Thanks.



btw I'm supposed to get a Wii soon. (:

[Folcon]

they are similer, but each of the three has different strengths over the other. Wolf is better at close combat compared to Fox and Falco, Fox has the fastest blaster but is weakist in defence, and Falco is better at ranged combat. At least, that's how I interprit my strat guide.

[gsninja]

The strategy guide's wrong about Wolf being similar. Every time I've seen him fight, he's way different in his fighting style and moves.

[PDM]

Jigglypuff rest got nerfed.

[Toasty]

I honestly don't see how that deserved a warn.

On another note, I'm haveing loads of fun being anally raped in brawl. :o

Anyone want to team up against Blue? :P

[Blue]

LOL, I saw that coming.

[Toasty]

XD

99 STOCK DOUBLE DAMAGE FTW!!

[gsninja]

Seriously, be more constructive with your posts or I'll start beating you all across the face with Ragnell.

It looks like the general consensus on the SSE was that it was OK. Some people liked it, some hated it, some said it was all right. I thought it was well done (Especially the cutscenes), but it did lack in some aspects.
