Sakurai says no DLC being worked on besides Mewtwo at the moment because he didn't want it to feel like they were cutting up the game and selling pieces of it. Shine on, Nintendo. Last beacon of morality in this cold, cruel world.

Even still I don't believe Mewtwo is getting released by himself when the DLC comes

i remember last night i had a dream i had a death sentence and the person who was gonna kill me was my dad and it was going to be by lethal injection but i was cool with dying and i remember i was super cool with it all but the last thing from that dream was me remembering that i’ll never get to play super smash bros for wii u and then he pushed the syringe in and i woke up

and then you wake up and Ganondorf comes into your room and says wake up sleepy head your Mom and I are making pancakes.

Jesus how do you even touch an enemy in cruel melee. Within seconds of spawning I get ruined. I guess it's easier to play the matches to unlock Duck Hunt.

Bowser Jr. is my favorite so far. I love his quick moves.

Well Bowser Jr's actually pretty good for that. Quickly try and get to the edge before anyone gets you and drive your car back and forth. Eventually you'll knock at least one dude out before you die

I really really wish there was a way, when playing For Glory, to both say that you have to leave (instead of just peacing), and to be able to add them on your friends if you want. I fought this awesome Charizard playing for like an hour, silky smooth connection. He cycled through three different profile names, and swapped characters occasionally to Greninja, Robin, Marth and Toon Link. But he mostly played Charizard, and he was a good one too. But once I had to go it kind of sucked the only thing I could do was just leave and that's it.

Hey so uh, about the farming CDs business...

quote:

Set all items except Master Ball off, turn items to high. Pick a stage that has music you enjoy listening to, then choose the omega version. 99 stock, level 1 computer. Spam Master Balls, you'll get on average 18ish Mews per game, Mews drop CDs about a third of the time so you'll get around 6 new songs every time you try this. It might help to have something on in the background to entertain yourself while doing this.

quote:

Can amiibos do the master ball throwing and item collecting for you? If so, you could probably do this without even playing. Just train an amiibo to rush for any master balls and throw them quickly, and don't teach it how to attack anyone. Put it against another similar amiibo, and boom. Free stuff.

quote:

90% sure you have to rescan your amiibo under the menu setting to pick up all the items they've collected

EDIT: TESTED. WORKS! FIRST EVER AMIIBO SLAVE FACTORY, HERE WE COME

I sent my lvl 50 against an Olimar I nerfed (redundant, right?) with custom equipment and it worked really well

EDIT 2: If you want your amiibo to pick up CDs, you have to teach them (or at least I assume). Mine picks up trophies but walks past CDs.

That master ball CD farming thing works pretty well. You obviously gotta put more work into than the CD factory from Brawl, and if you don't have an Amiibo you gotta do it yourself, but I ended up with like 7 or 8 CDs by the end of it, plus a handful of trophies (also a few custom parts or moves or whatever, but I don't care about those)

I wish you could actually hit the menu buttons on your gamepad. It just copies what's on the screen, you can't interact at all with it. I think that's a pretty big oversight.

If anything I wish Dr. Wily's castle had more stuff. As-is, a flat stage with the Devil is kinda lame

Various platforms for the stages would be good I think. Like the ugly face boxes from the Air Man stage or the blocks that disappear then reappear from... Fire Man's? stage. The Yellow Devil is just too in the way. Nabbit doesn't bother me too much, except that CPU players, no matter the level, can't seem to escape his bag if they're caught

loving hell I didn't realise how many stages were exclusive to each version. It's pretty frustrating, since I'll never be convinced to buy or play the 3DS version, but missing out on so many stages sucks.

How long before they're satisfied that everyone's bought both versions and they cross-release the whole lot for £10?

The only reason why you would not taunt is if you're playing as Dedede, in which case you just crouch.

I think it's more fun as Sonic to run back and forth on the stage until the other player respawns than to taunt. Especially since they took away the good taunt

I'm starting to enjoy Greninja after not initially like how he played in the 3DS version. But man I really wish he didn't have a counter and had something else instead (I don't really bother with custom moves, but you can't use them in randoms anyway). I'm awful with counters. I can rarely successfully pull one off. He's got a lot of fun moves though. It took me a little bit to figure out how that one disappear then reappear further away move worked. It's not immediately obvious that there's a shadow to look for. It's also pretty satisfying when you pull off the down attack and combo that into his backward leg kick thing. He's fun! I dunno why he seems more fun than when initially tried him.

The more I play better players the more I feel Ganondorf needs some tuning up. Hopefully nintendo keeps up with the patches. I have this fear that the patches were more of a one off thing to prepare for the Wii U release, some last minute tweaking, rather than an ongoing balancing effort.

I really can't believe tier lists (which are pretty bullshit i know) are saying Megaman is like. Middle of the road. I just fought the most ANNOYING Megaman player on For Glory I've ever fought. I could not touch this dude. I couldn't shield to avoid his attacks or he'd grab me. I couldn't get near him cause all of his ranged attacks would stop me, even the little potato pellets. In the right hands Megaman is insane.

Bowser Jr question. When I'm in the HEAT OF BATTLE and I eject from my clown copter, before I fall to my death I've been able to hit one of the shoulder buttons and respawn my copter allowing me another chance at a jump. But I've been trying to recreate it just like in practice and can't get it to work. Are there certain conditions to make it work? Does the clown car have to be exploded a certain amount of time or does the other person have to knock me around some first before it will reset?
