I just tap it
I never could play him in Brawl, but he's became my secondary main in Smash 4.
Yeah I thought you were talking about ALL of this
How do I register a game purchased on the eshop? Is it automatic?

Wow, thanks. Something so simple.

Wow, it took me like 2 weeks of constant playing to unlock all the Mii costumes. I just unlocked all the Mii costumes in about a day on the Wii U

Yeah, I'm not sure. It's fun, but this is a little too much lag for me to be doing 2v1s like this.
I'm excited that I actually got my bundle on release day! But holy hell Best Buy gave zero fucks when they tossed the game in a bubble wrap bag and shipped it out. The box was in pretty bad shape, but whatever, I'm playing Smash and that's all I care about.
Some initial impressions:
- OMG the OST for this games is mind blowing. I've already spent at least an hour or two just fine tuning "my music" frequency for every level. I would hope this game gets a ton of nods for any GOTY music discussion.
- The combat hit a sweet spot for my own taste. It's a lot faster and more fluid than brawl but more controlled than melee ever was for me.
- I've always played Smash as a party game. It wasn't until recently that I started to watch competitive Smash. Watching some of the high level players stream Smash 4, I can say for myself it's a much better viewing experience than Melee is. A lot of it is because I don't know much about the Melee meta game, though.
- Online is running better than I could have hoped for. I haven't even felt compelled to plug in the usb ethernet adapter I picked up yet because the wireless has been perfectly acceptable. There was one game that was pretty choppy but it's clear it was because one of the other players was on a bad connection. That was the exception.
- The graphics are absolutely gorgeous. I have to remind myself that this is running on hardware that for a long time people believed was a pretty lateral movement over from a PS3 or 360. Whatever the Wii U is running on paper, in practice we are seeing something sitting nicely between "last" and "current" gen.
It is rare a game lives up to the hype. This is one of those games for me. Can't wait to get some friends over.

My post from last night:
Is it just me, or is level 9 AI actually pretty damn hard? I haven't played Smash more than a handful of times since being obsessed with Melee back in early high school (~6-7 years ago). I was decent back then, but I'm getting my ass kicked now. It's like they're letting the AI read your inputs and respond in kind. Their reaction times and ability to judge your trajectory is insane.
Seriously, they always juggle me because they lock onto my character like a goddamn homing missile, but they air dodge everything I throw at them.
I think I might try to get better with Robin. Her (cause girl Robin is sick) setups are basic yet so nice.
I still like Rosalina, but getting good with her might be too high of a goal for me so far. I can def get wins with both though.
For the life of me, I cannot kill even the most basic C. Falcon or Ness.
I'm starting to think Ness is OP because I'm so salty.

Surprising with the shit ton of music and content. Brawl was on a dual-layered disc.
Tell me about it, I keep telling myself "this is the last one" and it never is lol. Online is so good this time around I've barely touched the other modes.
I agree now. Their reaction time and judgement is impeccable.
Today was rather interesting for me. After picking up Smash U from Best Buy in the Woodlands (& got my coin), I was told the Adapter was sold out. They put one on hold at another Best Buy, but some asshole swiped that Adapter before I arrived. I was then told by a GameStop employee that Fry's might have some, so I journeyed over there & checked various GameStops, Targets, & Best Buys along the way. None had it, & Fry's only had ones that were put on hold since this morning. In desperation, I looked through GameStop's site & found one in stock (& promptly put it on hold). Unfortunately, said GameStop was located in the far-off town of Liberty. After driving 50 minutes to get there, I finally got the Adapter (& filled up gas afterwards). I did all this on an empty stomach that almost made me pass out along the way, & the fact that my home is near Cypress. I spent 6 hours on the road (left at 9am) just to get Smash U & the Adapter.
Fortunately, the hell I endured was worth it. The game is fun, the Adapter works like a dream, & I got food the second I returned.

Hell that's fine, but change up the scenery!
Haha my bad gotcha, didn't even notice xD
Working on that Diddy, and I feel kinda bad sometimes with Olimar, kinda defensive haha. I'm still looking through the characters to see who else I like
Just Classic and Crazy Orders. I found 6.9 to be the sweet spot since you only have to face 3 Master Core forms and you get plenty of gold and goodies.

Not for actual tips or anything, no.
So am I imagining things or do amiibos seem to get better when you use the same character as them. Cause I was initially just using sonic against my samus amiibo but then switched to samus and it seemed like it got dramatically better with only a few level bumps. Like as if it started playing more to samus's strengths.
Yes
Is it ever? Especially now that we have people who upload findings on the internet?
Hell I wouldn't be surprised if folks already uploaded everything from the guide to a website.
I'm able to replicate a stutter in Pyroshere everytime. Just before these spiked orange creatures drop from the sky the game will stutter. It only happens with those creatures from what I've seen. This is the only stuttering I've experienced with the game.
For those that want to try this for themselves go into training mode and wait for those creatures to drop. If they don't drop just press 'reset' from the training menu until they drop.

Just curious has anyone tested if the game loads fast on the Wii U internal storage as oppose to the external HDD. Just curious though the game loads pretty fast in on a HDD anyways

Are you certain it's not just what normally happens as it levels up though? I leveled up a Peach Amiibo almost exclusively using Peach last night, but it seems to me that it somewhat reasonably matches the normal increasing CPU level progression, with added Cruel Smash style powerups becoming noticeable in the final 10-20 levels.
For Villager, you can use the falling tree as an edge guard against players coming back onto the platform from below.
For Zero Suit, Down-B has two outcomes: Pressing it once and letting it hit an opponent sends them straight down. Pressing it once, then presseing it again will make her kick diagonally and cause them to fly at an angle.

Smash anyone?
You can use your customized button lay out anywhere. Click the names under your... name?

Orange-spiked guys are Zeros for future reference. They're larval Ki-Hunters.
Thanks for that. I actually tried to look up what they were called but I couldn't find them.
