Super Smash Bros

I've been playing SSB Wii U everyday since it came out. I put a lot of time in Melee and Brawl back in the day, and I can myself putting even more time into this game.
 
I mean the game is fun and all, but it seems way to sporadic when it comes to knockback and KO-ing players. Sometimes they die too quick when it seems unnecessary and other times you'll be waiting in air too long. IDK it just bugs me. Cant take the game too serious, but its fun for what it is. Especially with like 5 or 6 players. Any more and its hard to see whats going on.

As for newcomers, Roy all day!.....the koopa that is, not the redheaded kid that people STILL wanted in this game. Ganondorf, my main in PM and Melee is shitty like in Brawl, bummer. But Captain Falcon is still fun to play as though.

Also I'm very fortunate to have bought a gamecube adapter when it first was released, the cashier at gamestop told me I got the last one they had and I was lucky. Cause I look online now and they go for over a hundred bucks cause they apparently didnt make enough. Nintendo once again not understanding their fanbase and not realizing that most people plays smash with cube controllers. And speaking of cube controllers I bought 2 brand new black controllers with the smash logo on them. I knew they were gonna be scarce, so I supplied up. When I asked to buy them, the cashier was trying to tell me that their gamestop brand nintendo themed controls were exactly the same, haha nice try. I'll take the sleek black ones over shitty plasic anyday. He also called Captain Falcon captain falco hahah what a tool.

Hoping BBBLP and JOHNNY ROOK hop up on this game sometime so we could all play.
 
I might buy it this Friday.
That Game & Wario stage is probably my favorite in the series, can't miss out on that.


I still have to say I'm disappointed by the lack of cutscenes in the game. I don't really care for Subspace Emmisary, it was just cool seeing all of these crossover characters interact with eachother. The lack of dialogue gave a huge boost of charm too imo. I was hoping to see more shit like Little Mac and Samus' interaction.

I just really want this game but I don't have a Wii U and this game and Mario Kart are basically the only games I need :(
 
I pretty much bought the Wii U just for this game. Came with Mario Kart 8 pre-installed. What a great party console. Wish I owned an Nintendo system before this.

I had played Melee back in the day and it was always a crowd favorite. Missed out on Brawl completely. Never liked the art direction anyway. Playing SSB4 brings back good memories.
 
It's because of how the screen scrolls. You guys need to be perfectly coordinated or else somebody is constantly getting left behind and dying.

You die a lot solo, so it's a much better "Pass the stick" game.
 
Thanks for the tip.

But back on topic: who are you guys planning to play as?

I'm going with Ike, Little Mac, and Captain Falcon
 
I only play as Rob. I'm thinking about learning Game & Watch though.

Mac is so damn annoying lol. All counter characters are. Good ass feeling when you bait them though.
 
Mac is annoying and I hate how he has like one aerial option overall.

Rob is fvcking annoying and good. He was one of the low key characters that wad great in brawl
 
That's pivoting, dunno why everyone thinks it's a wavedash substitute. Wavedash/Lcancel isn't the reason i don't want to buy a Wii U for this game. It's the whole package.

Pivoting exists in melee too, Wavedash in melee allows for what's seemingly air-dashes on platforms, and it resets the distance check on dash dance, which is the greatest footsie tool of all time.

Even with this tech, it's still not going to be a fast enough footsies game for me to enjoy it. And I've TRIED to look at it as it's own game. But my fingers are constantly disappointed by the lack of movement freedom.


But yeah i've seen this. There isn't a day that goes by where someone isn't trying to show me smash4 tech haha
 
lol, most of the other advanced techs found have been patched already.

Even if it's not enough for me to like the game, I hope they don't patch pivoting. For the sake of people who like Smash4
 
Been playing this every day since I got it. Trying to do every challenge now that all the events, characters, and stages are unlocked.

If anyone is up to play when I'm on my Wii-U, my Nintendo ID is illxblood
