I am cool.
I said earlier in this thread that Orbital Gate Assault is the coolest stage but I retract that.

The right answer is Gamer.

Just use smashes on the thing as much as possible, up to around 70% if you can, and add in a regular down or up attack to fill in the gaps. Hit the thing on the last second, you'll have a bit more time than it says

While i'm slightly disappointed that Smash Tour isn't EXACTLY like Mario Party but Smash, i enjoy it way more than i ever enjoyed Smash Run so i love the hell out of it since at least there is more than 1 fight for the entire time.

I kinda wish we had more retro stages but the one's here have been touched up nicely. I guess there's still 52M though. Overall pretty happy with the stage selection this time around.

I dug out my roommate's old Wii pro controller to plug into a wiimote and it's way more responsive than the WiiU pro controller. I don't know what they did different on the hardware end but the stick on the WiiU one is complete dogshit, but the Wii one works fine and has the c-stick in the right place.

Note: If you plan to play Shulk, Luigi, Lucina, Marth, Ike, or Dr. Mario do not turn tap jump off.

You can Up-B out of your shield and it's fairly useful for all of them.

This actually depends on your controller. With the Pro, it's really easy to Up-B out of shield even with tap jump off. You just roll your thumb from X/Y to B, while tilting up. I don't even have Y mapped to jump, and I can still do it easily with X->B.

It just doesn't work as well on the GC controller due to the layout.

The WiiU controller choked on rapid directional movement changes and there is a gap in the middle where it won't respond to directional inputs at all. I don't know if it's just the one I had was a dud but I can actually move and Quick Attack in two directions with this older controller. The WiiU one is sluggish if you're pushing it around too quickly.

I don't think Smash Tour is that bad, my friends and I had fun with it, but its not super fleshed out and feels kinda phoned in. Only 3 map sizes is lame.

Man I am so loving glad Conquest (Ablaze) is in this game

It's sort of the "welcome to Fire Emblem" song to me

The soundtrack owns (even if not all the remixes do), the song selection this time was top notch

I don't like classic too much since it seems like I get nothing but wacky rear end 8 player battles which are fun in small doses but it usually just feels like I'm flailing wildly at tiny fighters trying to hit them at random

I do kinda miss the classic Classic mode, where it's a mix of one-on-ones, crazy themed battles and special stages. That's classic single-player Smash to me. This one is fine, too, but I wouldn't call it Classic. It feels like a silly chaotic mess for six stages and then a stressful boss fight.

e: I'm also salty about Brawl getting rid of the goofy end-of-round bonuses, what the gently caress Sakurai!
