"Un"Official Brawl Update Topic

[Lunchebox]

Wow, I can't believe how bad I am at this game.

[Orange Devil]

God, it's freakin amazing. The gameplay is so SMOOTH. Using the wiimote sucks though.

[Lunchebox]

Okay, I needed to get used to the controls.

I 've been playing it for almost 4 hours.

[Johncarllos]

In 3 hours I have unlocked:
Luigi, Snake, Marth, Ness, Captain Falcon, and a few others I think.
Next up I wanna get Toon Link and Gannondorf.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Grah. I still have to wait until five or six o'clock to play it. :(

Ah well. At least I'll be playing it with six friends when I get back. :)

[ChaosVortex]

You all suck.

I called them up. No dice. He has to get through the pre-orders first. Figures.

[Orange Devil]

Okay, I needed to get used to the controls.

I 've been playing it for almost 4 hours.

Screw using the wiimote! Just use a GC controller.

[Johncarllos]

Yes.
It works SO well.

[Majikn]

I thought the Superstore opened at 10:00 and everyone and their dog were all "GOOD LUCK, LOSER" about it. Turns out the Superstore opens at 8:00 on Sundays. I got there around 8:05 and just sat there outside until I realized it's open, and I was still the first person there. The lineup was so small that I let people go ahead of me and then I was at the end of the line and she was like "Same?" and I was like "Yup." and it was really quiet other than that. The biggest inconvenience was the numbing pain of plowing through waist-deep snow with a double pair of pants and running shoes, and that pain lasted for all of like 3 minutes once I got out.

You might think you're "smart" by preordering, but apparently my gut served me just fine, saving me time and money.

[Orange Devil]

I went into Gamestop and asked for "Wii Jenga".

[Lunchebox]

Okay, I needed to get used to the controls.

I 've been playing it for almost 4 hours.

Screw using the wiimote! Just use a GC controller.

I use Classic, plus it's been months since I played any Smash game.

I've unlocked everyone but Toon Link and Sonic.


EDIT: And Jiggly Puff and Wolf.


All I care about is Toon Link, Though.

[Snare]

I worked all day, Mall's closed.

I work early tomorrow.

Work all day the next day.

I work all day the day after next day.

I work all day after the day after the next day.

Then I am off.

And then I work.

[Majikn]

Use your time machine, damnit, we talked about this.

[ChaosVortex]

I sent my brother's friend a Wii-Message, an attempt to reach my brother. I've asked him to try to buy a copy of Brawl if possible. Hopefully, he'll give a damn, so I can have double the eyes to look with.

[Johncarllos]

I move that this becomes "The Brawl Discussion Topic", as there are no more updates.

We need a place to gloat/piss and moan.

[Morgan Guyer]

4897 5618 7443

Let's go.

[NovaMan XP]

I've unlocked all the characters except Toon Link, Jigglypuff, and Wolf.

Still got alot of stages to unlock though.

[Majikn]

Four player Brawls online at this point in time is horrible lag, so if anyone's thinking about trying it, I'd advise against it.

[Johncarllos]

But 3 works well.
I think it was just you.

[Majikn]

Well, I highly doubt my Wii has any less power than yours, and there's nothing wrong with my internet.

[Johncarllos]

Oh, it's just my connection speed.
768kb/s download.
Between 100-250kb/s upload.

Even then, that much data going through it will push it pretty hard.



I need to practice more with Pit...

[Mikero]

Like I said in the other topic (do we need two?); Played all day. Did lots of everything except online.

Does Snake punch at an alarming rate for anyone else? Pikachu also does something similar to this and I want to know if it's just my friends' copy.

Ganondorf and Sonic killed me when we tried to get them in Classic mode, but only with lucky shots.

We didn't experience lag on anything we played but last night at around 1am EST my friend said online was pretty laggy and almost unplayable. Did anyone else experience this and/or has it dissipated? I don't want it to be a connection thing. I don't have  a bad connection but I have bad luck with this stuff.

Pit and Meta Knight are my favourite of the new characters I've played so far. I'm itching for Sonic though.

[NovaMan XP]

I lost to Wolf in SSE...

He managed to get a #####ing smash ball and horribly owned me.

I'll try again later...

[Lunchebox]

Wolf is #####ing nuts when you try to unlock him.

And yes, Snake punches fast.

[NovaMan XP]

Yeah, I just managed to beat Wolf by getting the Dragoon item. My win was pure luck as he was mopping the floor with me.

[Lunchebox]

I was flying my way back to the stage as Meta Knight, when a Bomb-omb blasted him.

[Fatso]

I love how many B-spam recoveries there are in this game. Practically everyone has a special move in which spamming B sends you soaring skyward. Meta Knight simply will NOT go off the side or bottom.

[Majikn]

Wolf fight: He sent me flying off the edge, and waited for me there. I charged up Green Missile and let fly, hit him dead on and he was rocketed off the stage as I fell to my own death, except he died faster.

Other than that I think I had the upper hand damage-wise anyway. I don't know if stickers carry over to this kind of fight, so it might've been that.

So I tried him out, and I learned that Landmaster is one of my favourite Final Smashes.

[Lunchebox]

... Wait, the stickers improve your stats?

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Yeah, but they really don't matter much. I got through SSE without using a single one.

[Lunchebox]

Well I'm gonna Create a room in Brawl, if anyone wants to play.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Hell yeah! Wait for me!

[Lunchebox]

Had to leave.

Also, "HI, I'M SANO AND I'M GOING TO SPAM KIRBY'S DOWN + B MOVE EVERY 5 SECONDS".

Also "HEY THIS STAGE IS BIG, SO INSTEAD OF FIGHTING, I'M GOING TO RUN AWAY, AND THEN SPAM DOWN + B EVERY THREE SECONDS!".

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Uh... I used Final Cutter a bunch too.
That's Up + B.
You're just being a bad loser. It's just a game dude.

[Lunchebox]

The final cutters I didn't mind because you didn't use it ad nauseum.

See, JC also beat me a bunch too, but didn't have to spam the same move again and again.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Dude, come on Lunche, it's how I play, get over it.
Besides, did you ever think to move sideways? Did you ever notice how vulnerable I'd be if you were to just to jump to the side? I'd be a sitting duck.

[Xero]

When I'm Jigglypuff I use all different moves.

And yeah Sano is no fun to play with.  But I'll beat him one day.

[Johncarllos]

I beat Sano...
Just shield dodge to the side when he's over you, then grab.

[Mikero]

I cannot wait to fight you guys online. Still, I can wait a bit to get the game.

[ASR]

Sano is my equal, I say. Pretty good fights between him and me, both of us won equal times.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Hey ASR, was I being cheap?
Nope, no I wasn't, I wasn't running away or spamming moves, I wasn't even using Kirby.

[ASR]

No, I'll vouch for that. You were not being cheap.

However, the first time we played, when you were Kirby and then disconnected, you were.
You were a fair fight these rounds, though.

Anyway, I say we close this thread.

[NovaMan XP]

But there's still updates!!11!! wtfbbq

[Lunchebox]

Last couple matches I played, Sano wasn't being cheap. But, he wasn't playing as Kirby either.

[Johncarllos]

LAAAAAG!!
