So got this today (£50 in GAME....I feel dirty) along with a Wii U pro controller. Love the controller on this the gamepad just felt weird

have to say tho WTF is the point of the gamepad switching on when your using a pro controller? why display all that when i'm obviously using another controller *bangshead*

Hit the home button (on either controller), gamepad settings, switch off display. It'll stay turned off until you press a button on the gamepad.

Ahhhh!!! <3 ya I didn't know about that.

Now if only I could make it so the whole thing never turns on xD but I guess the tablet is never really "off" anyway is it

Take the gamepad as far as you can and once it loses connection with the console, press the power button a second or two. The gamepad will turn off completely while the console is still on.
That's what I always do with it in Smash since I don't need the gamepad at all and it's only wasting battery.
 
ggs wp.

Was nice getting destroyed for a bit. I need to stop playing Lucina like PM/Melee Marth.

Gotta learn the new style with no l-cancelling and wavedashing :(

Good games, tour luci, Martha and peach are damn decent, peach actually had me on the ropes the most, such a scary approach
 
I just leave gamepad on its charging cradle. My daughter uses it to play, though.

It is bizarre that Nintendo hasn't offered a setting to keep the screen permanently powered down when playing games that simply mirror the TV.
 
Yeah your kirby and G&W are easily the best I've played against yet. So hard to challenge them in the air.

Yea, G&W in particular can really shut the air game down. I think you should definitely pick up peach. Looking at the replay and you got most of her shit down pact. Everything else is down to your read game

I've been trying to find someone else to pick up alongside my Lucina and I do enjoy Peach so I might start playing her a good bit more.
 
Is it me or Zero Samus is fuckin OP?

My Shulk got destroyed both time i fought her

My method is to bait her. Shulk has no hope of out manoeuvring her so force her to come to you, dodge and then jab + nair or fair. Vision can be handy but gets a bit predictable.

Speed art can also help if you think the pay off is worth it.

Disclaimer: I am not great so this advice is probably worthless.
 
My advice would be to mess around with UPnP, Application Forwarding, QoS and/or port-forwarding. I had success with the first two. Find them in the control panel for your router.

Thanks for the advice. I'll play around with UPnP when I get home.

I asked this earlier and nobody got back to me. Call me dumb, but does port forwarding effect wired connections? I know nothing about port forwarding. Never been much of an online gamer, so I've never had to mess around too much with this stuff.
 
Finally ready.

Excuse the crappy quality.

Man, Samus looked so good I had to get her.

Anyone knows if there's someone working on making this gamecube adaptor work on PC? It would be glorious.
 
Game seems to be bugged, did a 96 score run as dark pit for the 85 challenge. Game did not unlock reward and the game has my record for him as 54 from my first play through as him. WTF? When I died I just backed out, didn't retry.

Also did a normal no heal run in true all star. Didn't get the unlock. The hell is this mess?
 
Man, is anyone experiencing online lag?

I've had some 1vs1 with random players and the framerate goes down to 5 frames in every match, can't play like this. -.-


My download speed is 50 Mbit/s usually.
 
That's a start, thanks.
How do you do a Final Smash? And can you do anything else with those trophies besides collecting (is there a complete list somewhere) ?

To do a Final Smash you have to break the Smash Ball and then press neutral-B to launch it. Each Final Smash is different so it'll take some practice to execute it right. Some like Mario and Samus are a large attack that flies across the stage, so you'd want to get to one end of the stage and turn around to face everyone. Others like Link and Falcon only attack someone that's directly in front of them.

Aside from collecting and reading the descriptions you can go to the Trophy Hoard and touch the blue camera icon on the Gamepad screen to be able to pose them and create little scenes to take screen shots of. It's pretty basic but amusing.

Yeah I have yet to play even one good 1 on 1 match. So far my experience has not been as others described here.

Did you subtract you rival score?

Mine has been super smooth usually. Could be a problem with your wireless network, try getting an ethernet adapter for the WiiU.

Lucky you my local GAME hasn't had any Wii U pro controllers in stock for months.
 
Guys! What is the circle icon (red, green, orange) before the online/offline status of friend during online with friend multiplayer for? Seems like it's the connection bar or somewhat like that, it looked like wifi icon tho.

It's only there if using custom characters/miis. It's their Strength, Speed, and Defense. :)

Edit:
Oh. I think I totally misread this. Haha.
 
I just played Smash Tour for the first time today.

ALL OF MY FUCKING RAGE. The stupid AI cheats badly.
I guess it can be kinda fun with humans.
 
I'm disappointed the Tournament (not tourney) mode was held back. Would love to do some offline local tournaments. I loved doing those in Brawl and Melee.
 
Fucking Saturn Germany didn't have my bundle today and also will dispatch Persona Q next week! Fucking Saturn. de even though I get my bundle from the local shop... And they have many copies of persona, what a stupid system -.-
 
I played against a Rosalina yesterday in For Glory and wow. She's a major pain in the ass haha, her attacks are mostly quick and strong and that damn Luma is annoying as hell. I can see why she's top tier. The only way I could damage her was by camping with Yoshi, since every time I tried to attack her moves were quicker than mine.
 
This game feels so much more satisfying to play on the big screen and in fully blown 1080p. It's like I'm actually playing a brand new game.

I don't think I'll go back to the 3DS version unless I'm just training during commutes.
 
Guys, quick question, can we "reset" the amiibo's data? Like, if I let my niece play with Samus and Samus gets some weird "habits" can I reset her?

EDIT:
I stuck playing this on the game pad as the GC adapter is sold out everywhere :(

Cool thing about being a Nintendo fan in Portugal, this kind of stuff rarely sells out (in the first weeks, it eventually stops restocking). Saw a couple of adapters and the game+adaptor in stores.
 
And as expected, the Palutena Guidance for DHD is slightly different in EU.

"These two might be called the Duck Hunt Duo, but in some ways they're more like a trio"
 
Good Lord...I just met the best DK user in For Glory yet. Dunno how he's doing it but his DK is so fast I got destroyed up to 105% before even landing a hit lol. Luckily I won that round 2-1.

The next round though well he just kicked my butt 1-2 twice with DK and Greninja. Could have continued fighting him but hands started cramping. Wish he'd add me on his friends list so I can test my skills against him.
