After playing around a while with Mega Man in the demo against Villager on progressively higher difficulty levels, I think I've found my sweet spot with him and am starting to learn how to use him. He's pretty difficult to play as for sure, and I rarely use any of his B moves (except for zoning/spacing, really). But damn the Hard Knuckle meteor smash is satisfying to land. Probably my go-to kill move. I really enjoy playing as him, and while he's probably not going to be top-tier, I think I'll be good enough with him to mess my friends up.

heh, I just realized on average the importers are gonna have a huge advantage over the Japanese players until the game comes out elsewhere, because they're mostly the hardcore players
These are really nice. Thanks!

Yoshi's the cutest character.

I actually find Yoshi to be pretty damn ugly in Smash 4. He's so eerily humanoid now. Bleh.
PreyingShark

I think the opposite.
He was unnaturally hunched over in Melee and Brawl. Now he's all cute like he is in the Sports games.
WAT
Yoshi is incredibly adorable in this game. I haven't found Yoshi this cute since Yoshi's Story. :-D

upon looking up pictures, somehow melee yoshi never fails to be more terrifying than i recall him being

What, did you expect Nintendo to not track records and make it all 2-minute time matches?

I been playing the demo like crazy and owning with megaman. I feel like once you know when and how to use his projectables, he could be a really strong character. I love using Fair, hitting the opponent with tornado is really fun. Same goes with his Dair move.
edit: I meant U-air, mybad.

He's not a character I plan to play seriously, but I -love- the fact Little Mac is an underdog of sorts -- incredible in the right hands, but always requiring fast footwork, faster thinking and nerves of steel. Half of the game (the air game) is against him, but the other half is to his advantage, so it's a matter of how he applies himself, strategically, much like the gameplay of the Punch-Out series. And like the lore of Punch-Out, it's an uphill battle for him, but he's capable and can overcome the competition, which is what makes it exciting to watch. Sakurai perfectly captured the spirit of Little Mac in Smash. :-D
I'm listening to the Minor Circuit theme and thought I'd wax poetic, lol.

I feel Yoshi lost his charm with that game. 2characterized5me.
BUT TO EACH THEIR OWN!
EDIT: I can agree on one thing; Melee Yoshi is horrifying.

Has anyone experimented with the different Mii sizes and see how influential they are? Also, do the different Mii sizes have any effect when customization is turned off?
Someone tested the weights (of everyone), and the larger Miis are at least heavier.

Yeah Yoshi's design was perfect in YI when he was fit looking then starting with Story, he slowly became pudgier.
Ironically the exact opposite of what happened to Pikachu.
I don't think you can use Miis when customization is off? They are essentially 100% customized.
balladofwindfishes
Member
You can use them with customization off. I'm not really sure how their moveset are handled though
theprodigy
Member
wait there's just a "turn off customization" option?
My friend said the same thing. As someone who's always used a gamecube controller I find up tilts really hard to do and I keep jumping when I do an up air.
edit: and I've always played with tap jump on.

Yup! You have to turn on customization, it's on the top right of the screen.

nah not even close

Lol, exactly. Your avatar is actually what I would call the peak in perfection for Yoshi's design. Not too long bodied like in SMW's boxart, but you can still tell he's a dinosaur with his smaller arms and hands. Dude looks like Mario in a frog suit nowadays. Bleughfjgf. But whatevs.

This one felt nice. First three kill match in the demo against a level 9 CPU in the no-items mode. I'm getting the hang of using Pika's dair to defend off the edge of the stage.
Just curious, has anyone managed to get four kills in the same situation? It seemed like I had to play perfectly to get three in two minutes.

Yessssss, in my veins
Is it just me or is there something off about the 3DS version? I'm playing the demo right now and it feels really wrong. Definitely going to skip the 3DS version, this game just doesn't work on a handheld in my opinion. Can't wait for the Wii U version though, Gamecube controller for life.
MannyToons

Nope. It feels pretty meh for me as well. Just can't stand the lack of precision from the circle pad. That, and the lack of shoulder button triggers. It feels gross, imo. Can hardly enjoy playing the demo with controls that are that foreign to me for Smash.
