I actually saw a good Little Mac on stream earlier today. He took down Vex playing DDD!

It seems that the secret to Mac, unlocked after 48 hours of ancient training and hidden lore, is "don't jump off the side of the stage like a dumbass, stay in the middle and bait them out."

I saw that match, that Mac was good.

 

[Not75Drops]

I wouldn't do what I did and try and unlock everyone through classic. I got most then couldn't work out how to get the last 2 (not the two in this list) so I then had to do the matches anyway haha.

All of the other unlocks have been found now and are up on Smash Wiki. I think most people had a problem getting R.O.B and Jigglypuff which are unlocked by beating Classic 7.0 or higher with G&W and Charizard respectively .

OT maybe but UUGHHH they dubbed the narrator in italian :S after more than 10 years of smash it feels so weird.

 

[SenorArdilla]

Fox gets Jet Boots. How about that?

To everyone who has the Japanese version: Who is your favorite character to play as so far?

Shulk and Megaman are dead even for me right now, Tactician and Greninja follow after.

Have only gotten a chance to try Shulk and Greninja online so far, getting the hang of quickly switching out Monado Artes for more favorable ones. Lag's been hit and miss but once you get a nice string of games going, it feels so good!

How do amiibos work with the 3DS?

The New 3DS will be able to read them right on the bottom screen, for current models, it'll require an NFC reader add-on that's read by the 3DS IR sensor

[Kouichi]

Man, these customs are seriously making me take second looks at so many characters. Charge Blaster, Fox Flash, Barrel Roll & Pulse Reflector sounds like such a wild combination.

I look forward to the custom GAF tournaments.

 

[Molemitts]

Just preordered the game. I've been playing the demo so much, mostly as Link.

 

[georly]

Confirmed it just let me save an entire 10 minute match, which is more than might ever me necessary.

At the results screen, you'll get a prompt to press Y, like above. Do it, hit A, then it saves the replay to SD card.

 

[Seven Force]

I'm glad that one hype Xenoblade track (Which i don't know the name of since I only know about it because of VGCW) was at least left untouched. It's pretty much the only reason I play on that stage.

 

[SuperCambot]

What can I do with all these coins I'm earning in the demo?

 

[ffdgh]

Thanks for the anwsers/opinions! I'm just hoping some characters aren't marginally better than other like brawl. Atlease balance patches are possible when needed.

 

[Regulus Tera]

With custom moves, everyone is broken.

Super Marvel Bros.

 

[Azure J]

I look forward to the custom GAF tournaments.

If Pit also has fully controllable arrow and giant piercing arrow to choose from, I'm going ot be so hype.

500 of them carry over to the final game to be used there.

 

[Lunar15]

Regardless of whether he's good or not, I expect to play a lot of little mac, especially while playing this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmdOSIzsq3Q

I got Jigglypuff when playing on 4.0.

It was Bowser Jr and R.O.B I couldn't get.

Only 500? Aw man, I was hoping to be rich when I started.

 

[Fandangox]

Same, I probably have like 800 already. The demo is so fun and that's just 5 characters and one stage.

Nope. I just unlocked Rob and jigglypuff by playing regular vs against bots. I think online matches count toward the total match count, and then you just messes around in regular versus.

 

[Cse]

Seems like the stale move negation is being relied upon as a crutch to establish balance and character parity. If any one move it too powerful, its strength quickly becomes diluted if the player employs it too frequently.

Nah probably more than that lol.

The pharcyde. You got the jazz man.

 

[Hatchtag]

Its worth noting my impressions aren't based on much time with anyone (except maybe Dorf, I always play as Dorf). But Little Macs play style was just...boring. I couldn't have that much fun with it. But we'll see, games been out for 3 days, and if anyone watched Makais stream last night, I said Jiggs was shit then got fucking wrekt with it.

 

[Fandangox]

Nah probably more than that lol.

You are right I'm probably over 1000 already. I can't stop help

Those are just the standard unlock methods. Just like Melee and Brawl there is also an alternate way to unlock every character by playing a certain amount of vs. matches. In this game every 10 unlocks a new character.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Tried to save a 12 minutes of test match and it works.. I wonder what's the limit. Tempted to try do a test 99 minutes match and try to see if it can be saved or not lol

Try checking the digital instruction manual if you can read japanese.

So you're saying he's screwed against Duck Hunt Dog

Oh cool thanks.

Damn, is Villagers smash so weak or is Toon Link just the king of come backs?

 

[Unbounded]

You can throw Metal Blade while it's up if you're holding one in your hand (by throwing the blade at the ground and picking it up). So that + Leaf Shield could make for an approaching option.

I need a visual to get what you mean.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Damn, is Villagers smash so weak or is Toon Link just the king of come backs?

Most of his kill moves are pretty eh (because of bad range or slow start ups). He's best at killing by gimping off stage.

 

[AdaWong]

Can someone please tell me of Final Smashes trophies are back or not?

 

[Kinsei]

I need a visual to get what you mean.

Throw your metal blade straight down and then pick it up. Once it's in your hand use leaf shield and you are now both protected and able to attack at the same time.

those mecha-koopas look so annoying. I love it

 

[GustyGardens]

I've been playing the demo for this weekend and I really like it. I've been a Zelda player since Melee, but I've really latched on to Villager. His move-set is fun and really goes well with my style of play. I've had a few good matches with Mega Man recently, too. He's taking a bit of time to get used to, though. I don't like his neutral air, but I guess it's canon, right?

 

[Karsticles]

Throw your metal blade straight down and then pick it up. Once it's in your hand use leaf shield and you are now both protected and able to attack at the same time.

Unfortunately, leaf shield will be practically done by then.

I wonder if Wolf will be in the Wii U's Great Fox stage. Would love to hear what he has to say.

Cool. Has anyone tried to get conversations with Doc Louis on the Punchout stage with mac, or conversations on the Reset Bomb Forrest as KI:U characters?

Really loving Bowser Jr. moveset, he really is original.

 

[Choomp]

I'm super happy with Mega Man in the demo. Villager not as much, and I liked playing as Mario.

Watchin that stream, Duck Hunt Dog looks damn fun. Can't wait for this game.

I hope the English version says Bowser Jr in the same way, lol.

Oh God!!

I just realized Ho-Oh, Groudon, and Celebi haven't returned.

And Dialga is left out of the "Creation Trio" (Palkia, Dialga, Giratina).
