Seriously. It's so hard, I never even completed it. Completed. I beat it sure, but I didn't get every single shine sprite. Why? 'Cause I didn't get EVERY FRIGGIN LITTLE BLUE COIN IN THE GAME! Yeah, that game's harder to complete than DKC II.

Naturally. I mean, I double jump all the time. I also fly further when I get in fights after every consecutive hit I get, until I get pummeled so high, I fall far away from the fightground and nondescriptly dissappear with a bling. Then, of course, I spawn on lit up gyro-platform, or else my family would miss me.

My apologies if this is a common question in this forum, but I couldn't find a thread on it in the first page of threads. Winamp is my music player, and I'm wondering, how can you separate the music channels of songs so that you can listen to specifically the percussion or the bass or whatever? I once had a player called Meridian Advance, which could toggle which (of eight) channels were playing when you listened. I don't know if Winamp even has a function like this, but if someone could enlighten me, I would appreciate it.

Finished as everyone here has dubbed it. I have completely completed the game. If you're a Mario 3D veteran, the game is simple. Still, that's not to say I'm displeased.

Just finished it. Honestly, I'm a little disappointed. There was no challenge in any part of the game. I guess I really enjoyed it for all its classic elements from older installments, and the music was unbelievably great.

Ah, yeah. Gimme the days where a guy just needed rocks and sticks to make music.

No. (10 char)

What MasterSenshi said. Consult smashboards > regional zones > pacific west > whatever. There's bound to be something in your area or near. Does the Bay Area count as NorCal or SoCal?

Yup, can't argue with that.

Being able to waveshine is a skill Fox needs to have. Well, not needs... but heck, I hate this point. When someone says, "You don't need this move, this strategy, or this technique to win," I always think, "No, you don't, but you'll be better off knowing it." However, it comes to be a problem when too many statements like that stack up.Does a Fox need to know how to wavedash to win a tournament? No. Does he need to L-cancel to win? Not necessarily. Is dashdancing a necessity for the win? Not at all. But when you throw them all together, your chances of success are drastically lower. It's the little skills like this that will take the game sometimes. There will be matches lost because you can't follow up your dair with l-cancel > shine > WD > upsmash, and are punished for your lack of ability. So seriously, you don't need to know how to do anything necessarily to win a match. Just, as you play against more skilled opponents, your chances of winning will plummet if you fail to apply those same techniques skillfully.

Dunther, you need to l-cancel.

Haha, ever been to a tournament?Actually, they don't talk to each other much, but only because talking would betray their intentions to the opposing team. You can be sure they'd do it during the whole game if the other team couldn't hear. Usually, all you hear is, "I got him." like calling it in volleyball, or "Sorry" when they KO their teammate. Other times, it'll be like, "Up" or "Back" when one Green Team guy has grabbed a Red Team guy, and the other Green Team guy tells him which direction to throw the Red Team guy for the combo. Again though, I'll say that they would surely be talking the whole match if they could only hear each other.

The current tiers have not changed in forever. They're outdated. They only remain unchanged because no one want to officially claim, who has gotten better. Because for every person that gets raised, another or more get dropped, and then disputes flame up. For example, I think Link currently places mid-mid-tier in competitive play, but that would cause a great deal of outrage for at least Mario and Ganondorf. So they leave it. Edit: I like the way the above poster put it. ^ "The most recent one." That's pretty much it. Because it's officially still this since the last census.

According to E4A research, F.L.U.D.D. is quite poor. You can't aim it below horizontal, and the minimum knockback (uncharged) it does is like the effect of wind on dreamland64. Of course, Gimpy reminds us to not consider it final. They had limited testing time, so they may find a use for it yet.

Actually, according to Gimpyfish62, you can meteor characters through the water. You can only stay in it for a limited time, and I don't believe you can attack in it.

I had many games spoiled for me, but when TP approached, I tried my hardest to avoid spoilers. I found it was better to say that I didn't even own the game to my friends, because that discourages further questions that may spoil things, such as, "Are you past the part where... (insert spoiler)?"I also avoided potentially spoiling internet sites in general. I stopped going here, because I knew that there would eventually be spoilers thrown on sigs, and spoilers brought up in closely related threads. Indeed, looking back, both happened. A pity you could not be so insightful, mm? Really all it takes is common sense. If you don't want a title spoiled, be careful on the internet, or shun the internet completely. Edit: And it really pisses me off when people say things like this: Due to ancient stereotypes, when games were young and few played them, the idea that one who plays games often "does not have a life" is still a common myth. Nowadays gamers are more common, and gaming is more widely expected. Yet there are still people who cling to these dying ideas to justify any lack of skill in a game, or in this case, permitted play time. Do you really have less of a life if you play videogames even three hours a day? Why would you?Consider any other hobby. Perhaps you skate three hours a day. Do you have any more "life" than he who games three hours a day? Or is this "life?" Who are you to judge? Define "having a life." In simpler terms than, "not playing videogames all day." It's a dumb phrase. I can't stand it. My friend was over my house not long ago to be trained in the advanced techniques of ssbm. I was explaining powershielding to him, and how you must do it the frame before impact to correctly perform it. All the other advanced techniques I explained to him, I was able to do. I told him, "but I can't powershield. I'm still not good enough to do it whenever." He responds, "So, if you can do that powershielding thing, you like, don't have a life?" I laughed, and told him that if you could get another person to help you practice for 15 minutes every day for a month, you would be an excellent powershielder by the end of the month. Seriously though, drop that stupid nonsense. You have no more a life than a gamer for doing whatever you do often everyday. I'll point out in the literal sense, that you live while you're doing anything, thus, who are having quite a "life" while you're playing videogames all day.

I apologize if that came off as a bit harsh, but I remain unconvinced. Look, is effectively WDing in a game, and using it to string together combos going to hurt you? I'll point out also, that to be able to pull a WD is one thing. To know when to use it in a match is another. I learned WDing through a painstaking process of repetition, until I could WD back and forth across FD. But it took much longer to incorporate the technique into my game. People tend to say that they don't need it, or fail to see how it helps, if they can't pull it off in a match. Eventually, it becomes an accessible move, no different than a button press, and you can pull it off instantly without thinking. Right after mastering the WD, you have to think about it before pulling it off in a match. *Laughs* I thought of my brother who is learning now. He has the WD mastered, but can't effectively use it in matches yet. He'll wait until I'm a good distance away, and then do one, and then sort of stop like, "I did it!" rather lamely. Seriously, familiarize yourself with its uses, because saying that it won't help you is just wrong. As for the tournament you spoke of, assuming the story is true, those who could WD were obviously not that good. WDing does NOT make you good. I played a guy at one tournament who was new to the game. He had spent hours learning moves like shffling and WDing, but he had a very poor understanding of the game's physics in general. At that time, I had been playing melee for a long time, but had limited skills in the advanced techs. Now, I don't know how well these guys you spoke of were WDing either. Like I mentioned earlier, they could have been guys that merely memorized the move combination, and popped a few random ones in matches to show, "Yeah, that's right, I can wavedash." I know that happens, because at my first tournament ever, that was me. Sigh, I don't know why I can't be happy with how far I have come since then.

LOL! I've heard that before! "I can WD, but I don't need to." or "Sure I can do it, it just doesn't help me." Is WDing overrated? Way. But, if you can do it, yet don't do it in a match, you're a fool. There is nothing to lose from using WDing, it will only help you combo and mindgame better. It's that simple. If you claim to be able to WD, but don't, you are an idiot, or you are Aniki.

I loved that Book. Big-Wig was too cool, and the stork(?) was a seasoned character as well. It's been years though... what parts were violent in the movie? Is this animal violence? I guess that personifying animals can lead to roadkill looking much more graphic.

Haha, I can see it now. Melee Developer: "Shoot man, Fox can *proceeds to describe waveshining someone across FD*. Other Melee Developer: "Forget it man, it's unimportant. Who's gonna find that out, and we need to get this out soon. Just screw it." Later, same developers watching match of couple of Fox pros waveshining all over the place. The slowly turn to look at each other, and shrug.

Wait, why? So Sonic joins. What little dialog he has is of course, corny as everything he says in his new games. Bring back the un-arrogant Sonic from 2D sega. *Sighs* I guess I could just pretend.

I dunno what his upB will be, but it looks like his dB will be able to aid his recovery. The more you've charged it, the more so. On melee, some characters had fBs that helped their recoveries. (Marth, Mario, Doc, Roy, Luigi, Pikachu, Pichu, Yoshi) Zelda, Ganon, and CF too, but in a different way. I think Wario's chopper may help him return to the stage, maybe in the manner of Yoshi's fB.

Hey, I'm having trouble dling the Trauma Center: Second Opinion soundtrack using LimeWire. If I can dl it, it will be corrupt. Everything else tells me that I "Need More Sources." Does someone have a better way of getting it? Or advice to fix my problem here?

Haha. Jiggz dittos are great too. One doesn't dare rest, for knowledge that the other will surely rest back if he misses. Tense matches. Two "walls of pain" is fun to watch. Back and forth, back and forth. I hate Jiggz, cause I play Bowser, and if you make one mistake you'll get rested. Then there's the ledge cancelled sing. For those unfamiliar, hanging on the ledge, dropping off and quickly double jumping and singing. You'll fall but grab the ledge, so the singing is cancelled and if you sung your opponent, you can ledgehop again and rest. Gotta love it.

Jiggz is crucial for doubles in tournaments. Ally grabs, Jiggz rests. Actually, Jiggz rests a lot. If she misses, ally jabs to prevent extensive punishment. Jiggz great for giving extra hit to help teammate recover, and failed sing can also be cancelled by a jab, falco laser, or needle.
