Oh so your that guy with the eyetrack orbitars. My name is Flyguy online byw.
I got a 4 range, 4 melee ancient staff (I think that was the name). It shoots pretty slow but the charge shot has a pretty big blast radius and it knocks people over for just long enough for me to get into melee range.

THIS X 10000!
I have pimped this particular grip in so many threads in the past that I was worried I'm starting to sound like a viral marketer. It is amazing how drastic the comfort improvement is using it... Before I got this grip I couldn't play Zelda OoT more than 15 minutes before my hands cramped. After I got this it, playing ont he 3DS became like holding a console controller, super comfortable and I never play without it now (unless I want to use the CCP, which is nowhere near as comfortable as the grip).

Completed the first four chapters and have the Intensity sitting between Levels 4-5; having a blast so far
Left-handed, but I'm still using the default controls (thanks to the thumb strap). I'm probably gonna switch the camera/reticle controls from the touch screen to the face buttons though.
Did some online (three matches), but I probably should have waited a while longer to acquire better weapons.
No issues with the cheesy dialogue
Also, no hand cramping so far

I just realized in NA this is the first Nintendo game with the background inside the box. Pretty cool.
better late than never
That was my initial thought as well when I first opened it.

I do not like the multiplayer at all. At least there's bots though.

Multiplayer is intense bro. You gotta pick the right weapons. The weapons system has a rock paper scissors theme to it. So if you see guys with clubs, you gotta take em down long range. If you try to go all CQC on em you gonna get rocked

Why would you want bots if you don't like the multiplayer? o.o connection issues?
That's the best part! It's a battlefield full of chaos and multicolored explosions. >I don't really understand what's happening at all times.
Up to stage four (haven't done it yet though) and I'm enjoying the game so far. Haven't been using the stand but I think I'm to give it a try tomorrow. I keep breaking the 3D when holding the 3DS. The controls I'm okay with but I do wish it was easier to hold the 3DS. That more then anything is giving me issues and hopefully the stand can fix it. Still I like holding the system and at least resting it on my leg. It's to far away at that point for my liking. Guess I'll just have to find a position that works. Or maybe see how it is with the the 3D off. I don't know how I won the one free for all match I did. Guess luck was on my side as I lost the 3D a few times there do to the system moving.
As so many have said the dialogue is great. Loving the banter between Pit and Palutena. Been playing on intensity level 3 so far. Went back and did the first stage on 5. Got it done it was hard. Was surprised to see how hard things go by moving up to there. 9 must be insane..

I think multiplayer is a pretty good way to practice using ground controls
That's too bad, why don't you like it?
Personally I'm loving the multiplayer, it has Sakurai written all over it. It's ridiculously intense and the levels/options are great. Doesn't feel cheap either (remember the better your weapon the more life you take from your team when you die).
I just wish they allowed a way for me and friends to play online without it JUST being a friend match. I love in MK7 joining friends and playing with others online. Doesn't look like that is possible in KIU.
I'm loving this game so much. I was thinking about getting this along with Resident Evil during the summer, but hearing that Best Buy had it for $30 I decided to get it. So much awesomeness in this little cartidge. Very surprised of how good the dialogue (Super Bash Sisters lol) along with the amazing sound and visuals. Weapons Fusions is pretty cool along with the basic get all of the weapons to begin with. Overall, dis gam mad hawt.
Added. I'm at 4253-3521-5182.
If anyone added me before I probably deleted you to make room for real life friends.
AFAIK, if you use the status inflict power-up, for a short time when you charge-attack someone it will inflict that status.
I use confuse-status-inflict, although I'm not sure how that works in multiplayer.

I can totally understand how you can love single player but hate mutiplayer. It's almost a completely different mindset compared to it.
Land mines are so vital if someone gets close to
me with a club weapon, yet monsters rarely run into it on Solo.
The weapon clashing is awesome and the sense of missing a foe and leaving yourself wide open actually scares me
sometimes because there's that pause when you just hope the guy didn't realize you completely wiffed a slow club attack.
My favorite moment so far is when someone turned into Pit and the whole team was basically following Pit as he ran around the stage, going on rails and such not to get hit.
He lasted a really long time before we surrounded him.
Confuse status makes it next to impossible to aim correctly for about 5 seconds.

I convinced two of my closest friends to preorder this game, and they weren't completely sold on it beforehand. We played for five hours straight. We tend to talk about and collect games more than play them, and we haven't enjoyed multiplayer like this since Monster Hunter Tri for a few weeks after release.
I was really happy that none of us had problems with the controls, I expected at least one of us to. This game has me excited for Smash Bros 3DS/Wii U, but also pining for the next original Sora game the way everyone longs for an original Retro IP.
Anyway, love the game, can't wait for Kid Icarus Wii U.

Has anyone heard of or encountered this issue? My system freezes during or after every match. I played 4 tonight. The first one it froze during. I thought I lagged out because before it froze, all the other players were not moving. The next two times it did not freeze - I played back-to-back games without leaving MP though. As soon as the 4th match ended I went to quit and it froze again.
Fun game though. MP is intense. My left hand feels dead, but it's worth it.

Placed third in my first free-for-all match, even though I thought I was barely doing damage to anyone. The invisibility power seems broken, in a really delicious way.
Really loving this game so far. I do have a problem with the controls, though it's not where I thought it'd be; I have a hard time dashing, evading is pretty much out of the question which made the chapter... 4? boss needlessly difficult.
But man, the dialogue is perfect, I love all the little nods to the original game as well.
edit: I just bought more cards. what is wrong with me? And I'm 50 stars off another pack

Added you. 4081-5682-3874.
(Speaking of weapons...boy, do I love my freeze drill. <3 )
I haven't tried FFA but Light vs. Dark is really fun. The only issue I have with it is that you pretty much have to stop dead in you tracks to select any item that isn't one of the two showing at the time
I also don't think many people are aware that a heal item exists. Every time I'm low on health I run behind an ally, turn a corner and heal.

it's so hard just trying to take in what's going on with the weapons for me to even think about the abilities.
Same. The only ability I have that I actively use is the effect one, where it cleanses you of whatever effect you have (poison, stone, etc.)

I just plain do not understand the multiplayer.
It seems like a total madhouse. Explosions everywhere and by the time I figure out what's happening I'm dead. lol

I scored 10 points which is about 400 points lower than the next lowest score of my team.

I have this game since yesterday.
My god is it GOOD!
Don't know about you guys, but I love the voice acting work in this game. It's funny and very good.
Also the graphics are beautiful. So much going on all the time.
I only have problems with the 3D effect though, but I can turn that off at least (first 3DS game that has me having problems with the 3D effect, sadly )
I'm in chapter 5 right now and have enjoyed every minute so far.
I replayed the first chapter a bunch of times, every time on a harder difficulty level. It's amazing how much your First Blade SUCKS in this game.
Also Cannons all the way, yeah!
Haven't tried the multiplayer yet. Probably won't touch it until I'm quite far into the game.
My favorite moments so far:
The three-headed Hydra (Had to pause the game, I was laughing so hard)
The Grim Reapers (Dunno, they are awesome to me, for some reason. Maybe because they're quite hard to beat)
Controls being awesome (I use Slidepad+Touchscreen controls. Didn't have the money to buy a Frankenstick with the game, but I probably wouldn't want to use it for this game anyway, because the controls are SO GOOD)
The game generally being awesome.
This game. It is the best 3DS game righ tnow.

My clock count is already at five hours and I've only touched the first two levels. lol
I can't decide if my favourite weapons are bows or cannons though. I kinda suck at meleeing.

Has anyone found a comfortable way to get the stand and Circle Pad Pro work together well? My 3DS skips around like crazy because the CPP is attached.

The Nintendo World Store Card (apparently only 250 exist)
Works with my AR reader.
FFF it's not working for me D: maybe cause the glare on the color glass part
Try saving the image and zooming in on it, hopefully that helps.
BTW add me! 4897 6224 7961
Took me a minute. For some reason I thought the tutorial said to swipe the screen to dash. Nope. Just double tap the circle pad in direction.
Double tapping it is where I've been going wrong, you just need to give it a single flick.

I love the game but it would have been even better with a smaller bounding box and no, first person perspective doesn't fix that. The stand is surprisingly cool to play. Can't connect to multi atm although my internet works just fine.
Request for the OP: Separate friend code lists for different regions.
