Definitely. I can only hope it stays this way, and people don't find something extremely broken to ruin character balance.
The custom movesets add a lot more depth to characters that are kind of lacking in their meta.

Dat articulation.

Chill out fellas. I'm saying his voice doesn't match his face. I picture a scrawny white guy while I hear his voice tabbed out.

Even it happens it will be patched. It happens to every fighting game.

I've always stuck by him even during Melee and Brawl
I didn't mean you of course
Whoever was playing Mac was an idiot. He did nothing but neutral-b!

Ah. Was basing the two minutes on a Nintendo direct. That sounds better, although it does look like the Netcode is far from what it should be.
Yeah, confirmed you can save replays after for glory matches.
Did it myself.
Once again, still no way to export these videos :/
Really hoping youtube support will be added into wii u version, or at least miiverse posting of them.
Wait, Fierce Diety is full alt?
Am I the last person to find out...

Yea. People are really aggressive most of the time and with the custom movesets in the mix it gets so hectic, like that Mario vs ROB set.
People are going more aggro because it's early, Brawl was sort of the same way although with the greater staggered release between the Japanese and US versions I think by the time the game came stateside it was already slow and defensive iirc. So, atm, Smash 4 is looking okay now but things could still change. Then again, I think I recall aggro stuff in Brawl just not working out even with how early it was, so seeing aggro stuff work in Smash 4 in general is a good sign. Whether the defensive options in this game will override the offensive options as players become more acquainted with the mechanics as a whole remains to be seen.
Yeah, ya'll really need to temper your expectations. Any character can win anything right now because no one really has a good grip on Smash 4 yet with the characters they're using (especially the newcomers). Although, I did like the constant counterpicking with characters, like picking Little Mac to pressure Zelda who can't really seem to deal with how quick Mac is on the ground. That gives me some hope that maybe this game will become more of a character-based game where you'll have to learn at least 2 characters or more to do well to cover your MUs.

"Its time to grow up" Damn right
More of a painted alt but we're not complaining!
I heard good things about online.
But his tunic looks different too.
It doesn't look like F Diety's but it's different than the standard right?
It fluctuates. Sometimes it's okay and sometimes it stutters a lot. It looks like p2p netcode to me.

A little off-topic, but in regards to the demo, what combos do you guys find fun or satisfying? Although he's not my favourite in the demo, chaining Mario's d-throw into his b-up is a fun way of getting ~17%
Also, the air game in this game is so delicious. I don't feel, like I did in Brawl, that going after an off-stage chase is too risky of an endeavor, anymore

I've had some matches that were extremely laggy and other matches that were butter smooth. It fluctuates a bit (but it definitely leans more towards smooth in my experience)

This was probably Nintendo's train of thought for having melee at evo
[EVO2k13] Nintendo learns about evo>[EVO2k14], they used melee to advertise smash 4>[Evo2k15] Smash 4 at evo is good advertisement.
I'm pretty sure Nintendo is not gunna let Melee be the main Smash game at evo but it will be a third stream side event.
Nah it's just a fancy recolor of link's regular tunic. Certainly looks better than his skyward sword color tho lol.
What did I miss? He was very articulate.
Don't get me wrong. I definitely understand I might not feel the same way a few years from now. I just truly enjoy how fresh the game looks and feels compared to other iterations in the series. And as the new edge game develops I can't wait to see what kinds of stuff people will find and pull off.
Brawl may have been more aggressive at the beginning because they were coming off 64 and Melee. This game is coming off Brawl so people are used to and would know how to find good defensive, campy strategies as well.
Not that I can recall, there weren't any livestreams back then so it's harder to remember things very well -- you had to scour youtube for the matches. Not to mention, not everyone had a capture card in 2008 (that was during the time when they weren't very cheap).
Any matches that I did watch back then I distinctly remember them being slow but people were trying to play aggro. In most cases the aggro didn't work out, though. Especially against characters like DDD, Falco, and Snake (the three characters that were found to be really good early on, followed by Meta Knight).

It's just a texture.

Anything leading into megaman's uair. Such a satisfying move.

Any videos of ZSS floating around?
Melee is gonna be to Smash what II Turbo was to Street Fighter, basically.
So glad the original's OST's getting some love in 4; we got Kongo Jungle playing on Melee's Jungle Jape (As a Brawl classic stage, no less!), and remixes of the Credits & Post-Match songs. Here's hoping we see Final Destination/Battlefield/Metal Crystal remixes in the Wii U version! And maybe some classic stages down the line; Metal Crystal coming back'd be amazing; still disappointed it's not a stage option in that game, but then again, neither were Battlefield or Final Destination.
Mario's D-Throw -> Uptilts -> Aerials -> UpB
not guaranteed every time but super satisfying to pull off
I really hope Smash 4 will be seen very viable by competitive Melee players. Too early to say, but I would be happy to see Smash 4 being a successor to Melee at EVO rather than another game.
I was just joking because of the current kerfuffle over Pierce's voice.
He should have sold the guy some fucking hot dogs.

I... actually have yet to make that move connect.. ( ._.) it looks like a good combo finisher though!
I'm salivating at the thought of this lol. I need to try this out!!

Pac-Man is OP as fuck, those recoveries!
These streams were incredibly fun to watch, even characters I normally don't like such as Mario and Zelda were super fun to watch. Duck Hunt Dog's mechanics look super dangerous. Little Mac looks like an absolute beast if the conditions are right. And people even talking positively about Ganondorf gives me great hope. And I'm really enjoying my time with the demo practicing with Mega Man.
I SO CAN'T WAIT for the game to come out now.

I wouldn't mind Melee still co-existing with Smash 4 at EVO. It would be pretty appropriate given Melee really put out all the exposure we have now. I just reeeally hope like random25 said that Smash 4 is seen as "the next step" in competitive Smash. I love watching Melee, but at the same time it is time to move forward. Even if custom movesets don't make it to competitive metagame.
