I like Smash run. It's fun to kill baddies and get loot. I don't really care much about the final battle but it's fun to see how overpowered you can get with the powerup pickups. You don't have to like explore the whole map each run, just go around, find poo poo and enter doors if you see them.

Yea the more I read about them the shittier amiibos seem. The best AI in the game is gimped. There's a more challenging version that learns on the disc, but you can only activate it for one character at a time by buying $13 figurines. It's that awful kind of dlc that Nintendo was praised for avoiding until now.

I guess that's one retarded way of looking at it.

I think the problem you're having with Amiibo's is you have to use the same character that you're trying to teach them about otherwise they act like loving idiots. I tried training my villager using dedede and now he's trying to forward smash all the time. If yours isn't doing sick combos it's because you didn't do any.

Seriously mine can do a Mario down throw with all the up tilts and air up a's to me and will fling itself off a cliff to meteor smash me at all times.

:lol: if you think 9 AI was gimped to.

Edit: Also they don't have the little level up jingle anymore but they do keep learning past level 50.

Big Battlefield's pretty drat fun.

Anyone have advice for playing Ike, Samus, and/or Sheik?

(But preferably Ike.)

Use his forward air attack all day, with short hops.

His jab combo and neutral air are also good.

The shop should tell you if you already own trophies they have on sale. I think so at least. I feel like I've seen it say that but also I've only been in the shop like three times.

At least in the 3ds version, only the silhouette shows up if you don't own the trophy.

My first Amiibo arrived. Very happy with the paint quality. Was a bit concerned after some of the recent pics in the wild.



Y'know it doesn't really bother me that much but in this picture it's even clearer that the face proportions are off. Eyes should be closer and the mouth+nose should be a bit higher.

The only bad part about the paper mario stage is Bowser's Castle and even that isn't that terrible, just don't stand in the Bowser head too much.

Magicant would be much, much nicer if the Flying Men didn't take all the protagonism; they should die in one or two hits and hit weakly like in the original game. I find them to be worse than the Yellow Devil. All in all there's only two or three stages in the 3ds version that I openly dislike.

I find that 3-stock takes a bit too long. 2 is more like it, for me. Maybe with a 3 or 4 min time limit.

Nintendo must get in contact with Hudson Soft to bring another classic videogame character to Smash Bros. A beloved, iconic character that's fondly remembered by Nintendo and videogame fans, who is as famous as Sonic and Megaman are. I am talking, of course, about Master Higgins.

By Hudson Soft you mean Konami since they own all of Hudson's assets. And Takahashi Meijin/Master Higgens was already in the Smash-clone Dreammix TV World Fighters along with Simon Belmont and Optimus Prime.

It's OK, Konami can lend its own famous character, Konami Man, to Smash Brothers too.

Since people here are clearly more capable than me, I might as well ask: Any tips for playing Captain Falcon? He's my main and I'm decent with him, but I want to improve. Plus I can't do the "beat All-Star on Normal without healing" challenge, I'm too much of an aggresive idiot.

Also, any equipment choices that'd make Classic easier, as well as the All-Star Battle Events? I'm really bad with equipment, I still don't quite fully understand how good it is so I keep only going for balanced stat boosts instead of something substantial. This isn't neccesarily for Captain Falcon, any character that'd make high Classic levels slightly less of a pain would be greatly appreciated.

You have to study your opponent. Ask them to show you their moves.

I usually have good results abusing his aerial forward attack in short hops, and also his neutral combo is very good. You have some combo options with his down throw I think. His forward smash is, sadly, incredibly hard to land but it's also one of the strongest moves in the game.

He was way worse at launch anyway, I think that first balance patch did wonders for Ike.

So for those of you not keeping up with the APEX situation, the following happened in the last hour or so:

-Some moron opened an emergency exit, triggering a fire alarm and forcing everyone to evacuate.
-Fire department shows up, turns off the alarm, people start to come back in.
-Fire department starts looking into capacity and safety issues, calls the police.
-Police department comes in, condemns both the Smash 4 and Melee rooms for safety due to a section of collapsed parking garage caused by the snow.
-Smashers told to return to their hotel rooms until everything gets sorted out, new estimated start time at Noon.

This on top of the fact that the hotel dropped the ball on the internet hookups for the streamers so everyone is streaming on 4G setups right now. It's a mess down there.

Edit: Now the fire marshal is evaluating whether the event can even happen.

These stage hazards are out of control, Sakurai!
