friendlyHunter Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 I know nothing about Brawl, but it seemed Sheik in that video was always blindly diving towards Marth and subsequently getting SMAAAAASHED - really all of Marth's KOs were caused by Sheik being careless and running/falling right in front of Marth when he's got a smash attack (or Standard Special move?) half charged up. That video didn't tell me much about how good those characters are... Marth DOES look like a fierce edge guarder though. And Marth in a flowing white gown- er, cape, makes Sheik in black look so badass =p All the Final Destination videos I've seen have that same song; are there other songs you can use for this stage, or is that one just the best?? also i am really starting to like snake he is tricky! best projectile game like ever And speaking of projectiles: since it looks like Sakurai's going to wait another few weeks for the Samus Special Moves update; how are Samus's projectiles this time around? And what's the story with the green Super Missiles? =D I'll be slightly disappointed if Samus's "projectile game" isn't strong, seeing as how her defining trait is that HER ARM IS A GUN. I'm also curious how Jigglypuff's defining trait is doing: how's the singing move this time around? Quote

Linkjing Donuts Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 sing is still useless and rest is now useless this is balls. here's to hoping pound and f/bair are still great Quote
Geoffrey Taucer Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 THey nerfed rest again? Come on! They already nerfed it from 64 to melee. That sucks. Quote
Eulogic Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 heh jigglypuff has b moves other than pound? oh, and i hear no (or at least significantly nerfed) rising pound this time around. confirm/deny? Quote
atmuh Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 nope not really jiggs aint fun no more :[ Quote
Drack Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 You can still rising pound, it's just not as good. I was a Falco main Jiggs alt in melee, and I cannot stand either in Brawl. I do like Meta Knight (great edgeguarding, many jumps) and Wario (good aerials, awesome air control, insane recovery with the bike) as Jigglypuff "replacements" though. Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Drack why haven't we played yet? Quote
Jam Stunna Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 I don't know if Sheik got worse or not, but Marth getting a 50% KO is beyond gimp. Quote
Scufo Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 To be fair, it was a charged smash, and Shiek is a light character, and it was right on the edge, and it looked like a tipper. marth is teh overpowar lulz Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Yea it's a charged up tip hit. To be fair, tips are harder to get in this one than Melee. Marth is still cheap though. Quote
Jaybell Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 They nerfed Rest? D: That was like the only thing I was even remotely good at with Jiggs, was rest-ing people out of nowhere. Quote
Aninymouse Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Okay, Rest may not kill anymore at, like, 35% or whatever, but it can star KO at around 75% or so, depending on your opponent's weight. It still kills really well, off the top. How is that WORSE, really, when everyone lives longer ANYWAY? Plus, it puts a flower on their head for added damage if they don't get KOed. ALSO, because she herself is larger, the hitbox for Rest is much larger and easier to hit with. AND she wakes up faster. How is that worse, overall? From the old Jiggly pros on Smashboards, apparently her Fair is her new spammable aerial. Also, lol, don't let Jiggs get a fan! http://ca._______.com/watch?v=T6Lex47I7SI (insert "youtube" to watch [FUCKING BOARDS]) Quote
Drack Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Rest does more damage (if you include the Damage over Time flower it puts on the opponent's head) but less knockback. Jiggs really needs rest knockback more than she needs rest damage. Drack why haven't we played yet? I've been pretty busy with schoolwork. Also I never added you to AIM so we've never really been in contact. Fixed the second problem, but the first isn't going away for a while. And here's the biggest showstopper ever. Your friend code isn't in the database! Quote

I get the feeling I'm going to get a bunch of challengers wanting to prove something about to me about their Smash ability when I just don't really care that much at who's better. I still have a bunch of Melee challenges from out of state still in pending... Quote
Overflow Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 So I walked down to EBGames the other day, and I saw posters for a SSBB tournament they're having in april; the winner goes to Nintendo world in New York. I want to enter! whee! ahem. Anyways, since you guys HAVE been in tournaments before, anything I should watch out for or train for? P.S. I don't actually expect to win, but I don't want to lose my first match either, lol. Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 If you don't have Brawl, how can you train for any of this? Anyways, I'm guessing it's going to be the initial characters? They're all pretty good initial characters... except for Yoshi. Just play smart and play to win if that's what you want... Edit: Here are a few photos I took of Sakurai before his presentation at Game Developer's Conference at San Francisco. He took a photo of me taking a photo of him, lol. Quote
anthonium Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I don't know if this has been asked before but I wanted to make sure. Does this game have the option for different save profiles? Say a friend wants to play and wants to unlock his own things can he save in a different profile? Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Just like all the other Smash games, no. The only thing you can have multiple saves in is Subspace Emissary. Quote
Effector Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 It is my hope that in the second picture, he intends to play himself, right hand versus lefHOSHIT MASTER HAND CRAZY HAND ALL MAKES SENSE NOW No, seriously, what is he doing in that picture? Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 The only reason I'd see anyone do that in Brawl is if they're actually playing themselves. I'm not sure what he's doing exactly, but there's not really anything else he could be doing with two controllers at once. Quote
Castle Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I remember someone saying that he was taking a bunch of snapshots, so I assume that's why he has two controllers. (can't remember the source) Quote
Effector Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 But... wasn't Brawl's thing that you can take snapshots from the pause menu - ie, no more special mode and 4th-player control? Ah, whatever. Just goofy timing on that picture. Quote
Jam Stunna Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Chromatic Irony (11:53:51 PM): so apparently Ike's fan chant is "we like ike" Chromatic Irony (11:54:02 PM): i guess i'm going to be playing ike exclusively Rgs10168 (12:02:52 AM): HA Rgs10168 (12:03:07 AM): I hpe to God that Sakurai gets his own reference Quote
Linkjing Donuts Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=CNdLECu0Zh4&feature=related what the, jiggs is the slowest, slower than ganondorf. and bowser and DK are faster than a good number of characters Quote
