I... don't know from memory. I generally used the GamePad when playing single player. Sorry.

I was hoping the online netcode would be better for me compared to the 3DS version but the 4-5 games I've played have all been pretty bad.
Welp, guess I'll just stick to other online titles and leave this one for local play whenever I head home for the holidays.

I didn't buy a Gamecube Adapter for Smash, and I absolutely don't regret it so far. The Pro Controller feels so good for Smash, and I think I might be faster with it than I was with a GC. I'll probably buy the adapter at some point just to have extra options for guests, but I am very happy with the Pro.
Mario has a few levels that require the Gamepad, but it will tell you when that is the case. The majority of the game can be played with just the pro controller. I don't know about Kong.
If it helps, the Pro Controller charges with a mini-USB cable instead of requiring a battery change. Also, the batteries on the pro controller last next to forever. It's a stark difference coming off of, say, a PS4 controller. (EDIT: Or the WiiU Gamepad)
Maybe he looked so bad that they produced very few of him.

Going to best buy right now to pick this up, along with the gc controller and a bunch of amiibos.
It's like Christmas morning!
See you all in Skyloft!

Yes. And DK doesn't require the gamepad at all, I don't think I used it once in that game.
Am I misunderstanding? The WiiU Pro Controller comes with a USB charging cable, and the battery lasts for eons.

How does the game play with the gamepad?
I don't really feel like spending money on the adapter even though it'd be nice to play this with my wavebird.

Just get a long microUSB cord.
edit - you know the pro controller has a single rechargeable battery built in, right? It lasts 80 hours and charges via the cord.

Yup 80 hours
Pretty much similar to 3DS online. Really depends on the weakest link's connection.

Holy crap, I did not know this. I may just pick one up, then.
Edit: Nevermind, the button placing is not to my liking.

Picked up my copy from Best Buy and took a look at the amiibos. I couldn't pull the trigger on any of then. I really wish they had Captain Falcon and Luma but I'll just wait for now.
I can't over how much I like the Pro controller. The shape is perfect, even better than the 360 pad (thinner handles), weight is just right, all the buttons and triggers feel perfect, same with the analogue sticks, it supposedly lasts 80 hours(!). What a homerun of a controller. I wish the DS4 was as comfortable as this.

I'm experiencing the huge input delay too, seeing as apparently it's only happening to a handful of people, this might explain my For Glory experiences...
Hoping there's some easy way to fix it on my end, because it really is fun, but man is that input delay a massive mood killer.

I think so? Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if all brawl songs made it in once everyone unlocks everything.

It is. I heard it on the tourney stream last night.

This is the truth.
I just can't bring myself to buy the Wii U version at full price when I already have the 3DS copy. If they somehow gave a discount for 3DS owners then I would consider it, but it's the exact same game (at least as far as multiplayer goes), but with better graphics. Not worth $60 for me sadly.
Thank you

Just snuck in an hour in between classes with a few friends. Game is orgasmically good. So much to explore and try out, definitely going to be playing it the rest of the school year at least.

Manually set up your Wii U internet connection. Set a static IP, use Google DNS or OpenDNS, and make sure the MTU matches your router setting. You can also enable DMZ for that IP address you set.
Also make sure nothing else is using up your bandwidth. If someone is streaming video or playing an intensive online game or whatever that can interfere with your connection.
I'm kind of curious about this myself. I'd rather not spend extra money right now if I don't have to.
But I guess right now is more towards the positive impressions. At least we didn't had any sort of "disastrous online launch" like Drive Club or Halo MCC wich is neat. Real' neat.
I played off-tv for a few hours last night. Not bad. Make sure you switch shield to the BACK L/R instead of the front ones, it's the opposite from gamecube. Hate it. It's no gamecube controller, but it'd totally doable.
plays flawlessly, I've only played with the gamepad and I don't regret it at all, might have to swap the controls a bit to put the shield button on ZL and ZR if you're like me though
I haven't played it yet, but I imagine the answer to this question is going to vary a lot between people. If you like the Gamepad and think the 3DS control scheme isn't a disaster, you'll probably be fine with the Gamepad.
I know I've heard you can use 8 GCN controllers (two adapters). Not sure if there's a limit on Wii remotes (and thus Classic controllers) or Pro controllers. I'd imagine you can use any 8 valid controllers.

Got Falco and Duck Hunt now.
Game is plenty of fun. How do you adjust the music settings?

Anyone?Wait how do you transfer stats and costumes?
I can only transfer characters.

Sir!
The game will tell you when a stage requires the gamepad. Usually you can detour around a stage that does if you don't feel like using it. All of the Captain Toad stages require it. I don't quite remember why... I think because it uses the gyroscope.

Still hasn't shipped, according to Best Buy's site. Wonder if that means I am waiting until at least Monday, or if they just didn't update saying it shipped.
I'm a Mega main. I'll post my thoughts on him when I get my hands on the game later tonight!
Go to my music from the vault (games and more > vault) or press 'y' before selecting the stage to automatically choose my music for that stage during stage select.
