I'm hosting Mik/CJ.

Sorry I just started hosting now, I forgot I had to take the bins out.

Joining you guys for a couple games. It's kinda late here so I'll have to go to sleep soon :p

Edit: Are you guys in the US? I'm in Japan. If it gets to laggy I can leave. Just let me know.

Also, so pumped to kick Master Core ass.


...orgetmyasskicked

He's my favorite smash bros boss ever, just because he's constantly changing forms, and the patterns aren't too unfair. Very very doable with all characters w/ enough practice. If you wanna do it at lvl 9, do it w/ someone strong. I did it w/ captain falcon, since he's fast (can easily dodge attacks) and his falcon knee almost always sweetspots for 20-30 damage (out of his grand total of 400+). Did it on my 4th try (after having completed classic mode w/ other characters about 10 times prior)

I'm in Europe, I've had no lag with Japanese players so far. ^^

Well I tell a lie. I lagged like hell with some Japanese pikachu player.
 
I would really appreciate it if Sakurai would tell us what Wii U and 3DS connectivity does in full before the Wii U release. That plays a huge role in my decision to get the 3DS version.

I find if a bit weird the lack of Falcons, Foxes, and Falcos I've seen in streams and tourneys. Bit worried about Falcon, but he looks better than his Brawl form at least.

(As for midnight launch, it depends on the store, the staff, etc. Unless nintendo is sponsoring a midnight launch, then it's up to the store to do it. They have to shave off hours other times of the week to do a midnight launch, and have staff willing and able to do it. If it's IN a mall, someone has to fork over money to pay security guards, which usually never happens. If it's a strip store, it's usually up to the discretion of the staff).

Great matches! You guys are good :_)

I'll leave you now to play lagless! Cya around and thanks!

Mik just waiting while Lucina charges :(
Haha! I usually play like that when I'm with friends, just hanging out on the back waiting. My friends aren't as good though, so I usually get a lot of chances of winning. Not online tho, it seems! :p

Just a midnight release.
Doubt they'll do a little tourney like they did with Brawl unless they put out info pretty soon.
Well, even if they don't, you can bet EVERYONE will take their 3ds and at LEAST play the demo with each other

I even know a few people that will take their Japanese 3ds and full game, so there's that. My gamestop even had a project m tourney for destiny so yeah lol

Holy shit Bowser Jr.s default Side B is good.

I've never seen him played much yet by competitive players but I'm writing about his customs and the versatility of it is amazing, all these jump cancel opportunities, bait opportunities and KO power, I think I'm going to main this guy with Ness, he's so good.

i found a couple localized trophy descriptions from a few videos showing off trophies. Some are actually kind of funny
Here's the one for Cucco


and the one for Pipes

Getting the guy who wrote Mother's dialogue for trophy descriptions was an inspired choice. I'm way more excited to sift through my trophy listing than I ever have been in a previous Smash.

Yeah, I like how you can cancel out of it into a nair, among other things. It's the best 'roll across the stage' side b in the game, I think.
 
That's my favorite stock photo guy but good grief, GameStop. Way to suck all the humor out of it.

I've gotten some serious handcramps from playing the 3DS demo and I haven't even been playing all that much. I guess I'll have to pace myself over the next few months.

Edit: No longer a Junior! Nice.

Tried to play WFT last night a bit... is there any point to the side b? Seems like a useless projectile to me. What's its use case?

Yup I posted all 3 vids from this set. Grenjnja looks great.

I think Greninja's biggest issue is that his primary kill move (down smash) sends opponents diagonally upward, thereby allowing them to live longer (and VI harder). Hopefully Shadow Sneak will prove itself to be a viable alternative for KOing.

Suddenly Cranky Kong's memes seem okay

For Midnight release. I really don't know/care right now as I'll probably be working that Friday and it's that Best Buy I don't care for >.<
