I'm not gonna lie, that's a pretty good idea.
 
I have a feeling the EVO sponsorship is the trade off for Nintendo even allowing Melee to be there.

"You can play that old piece of shit but you better put our name on the event and promote us for giving you permission. And fuck no you can't have any money or support from us."

Lol I kind of feel the same way. I dunno we'll see how it plays out. Either way it's far, far better than last year.

Man, Japan's Super Metroid box art is so much better.



And I have no clue what Nintendo was thinking with Other M. Japan gets this neat one...

And everywhere else gets this shit.

Never seen the Japanese boxart before. Neat effect with the slip cover. I personally don't mind the North American box art.
 
The most requested characters on Miiverse are probably Goku, Shadow, Shrek and Steve from Minecraft who I didn't know actually had a name before Miiverse.
 
Haha, I'm going to have to call it quits on that one; sick finishing spike on your part! Great games.

EDIT: Ah, you got the same idea. Yeah, your Marth is crazy good. I'm excited to try and find a way to counter it.

Thanks! You should go give Heath some matches as he plays a bit of Mario too.

We played yesterday actually and, much like with you, I had a hard time keeping up. He also has a really great Bowser. But I'm feeling the old Melee player in me coming out, so hopefully I can return to my former glory soon.

Man, this is getting me excited for Smash 4! Can't wait to see how everyone plays.

Does anyone know if Justin Bailey is even a thing in Japan since the code is just a coincidence because the password system was a bit borked (it was early days for passwords so give em a break).

I mean the Japanese SMB joke of making Mario crouch over the coin counter in an example of a region specific NES joke (Wario Ware Smooth Moves actually makes a reference to it) so I wouldn't be surprised if Justin Bailey was just the same.

The Famicom Disk System version of Metroid doesn't even feature passwords. Progress was saved on the disk--something that was probably planned for the US release as well, but to save money Nintendo opted to go with passwords instead of battery backup like Zelda had. Not only was there no quick and commonly known method of playing armorless Samus (in the NES versions, finishing the game with a good time led to a new game plus type scenario which had you play as armorless Samus), but it actually wasn't even in the game. The only armorless Samus in the Japanese Famicom Disk System version can be seen during the good ending--featuring brown hair instead of the trademark Justin Bailey green (which is just the NES version's way of handling the Varia Suit--a clean file with armorless Samus without Varia Suit has brown hair).

While the unlockable Metroid in Metroid Prime and Famicom Mini GBA release of Metroid was based on the FDS version of Metroid, Japanese players who unlocked the original Metroid in Metroid: Zero Mission would be treated to the NES version. It's not too far fetched to assume some players and definitely some Nintendo higherups have encountered what we know as Justin Bailey Samus, but it has nowhere near the notoriety there as it does in non-Japanese territories. If there's a Justin Bailey alt or color for either regular or Zero Suit Samus, it's pretty much 100% fanservice for anyone outside of Japan.

If it makes you feel better when I first started playing with smash gaf I was getting beat worse than you! But after playing them all and sticking with it I can now match blows with the best of them there.

Haha, glad I'm not alone. I sort of expected this though as I haven't had a regular community to play with in 3 years and I'm using a Wii U, so I'm stuck with a classic controller. But I'm just happy to be playing again.

I was this close to getting one, and then they announced the official one. I'll probably just hold off, as I'm already getting the hang of the classic controller. But, even though it would only be for a few months, it sure is tempting.
 
I got Project M to work! Most of the office left so i only did 1 v 1 and one 1v1v1. Tried Dedede. Oh man. He moves faster, feels better. Bummed I can't chain grab. But there will be gives and takes. Then moved to my old Melee main Sheik and my guilty pleasure brawl counterpart, Zelda. HOLY SHIT! SO MUCH BETTER. Zelda, who I main a lot (even though It causes me more pain with her stupid fucking upB) she moves faster, and Shiek hits better. I was so happy beating my buddy who was playing Mewtwo.

Anyways, moved to my main main, Olimar...oh man.. so nerf.. :( Seems slower, 4 pikmin only, can't grab as farther away. I need to check him out a bit more and get used to it, but so far not as stoked on him. Tried Pikachu, so slow. So heavy. But I will try him some more and see what I can make of it.

I still don't know all the extra details they added with Project M, but I heard there is L Canceling, I don't know what that means or how to do it but I will look into it. What are good techniques to destroy my unsuspecting Co-workers.

To be honest, though, I'm not able to use these techniques (aside from the occasional l-cancel) in the middle of battle, as I'm still getting used to Project M.
 
Sakurai will reveal that all subsequent Tuesdays from here until release shall be known as Trophy Twosdays, where he shows only two trophies and makes a jab at how he could've talked about more informatve things.

"Here's a trophy of Toon Link...

...and one of Zelda! Where's Ganondorf, you ask? I'd like to tell you, but I've run out of time for today!"

Random Question: What would be your top pick for a new Earthbound stage?
Click to expand...

I'd just like a Tazmily Level that's like Onett, simple and cozy.

Although I guess if Lucas is cut we probably won't see a Mother 3 level, not that I really care since I don't really no anything else from Mother 3 and NPC sucked.
