It doesn't make sense to include more F-Zero characters at this point. There's no more call to represent F-Zero.

Heck, I'm almost surprised that Cap is still in the game. I actually laughed to myself the first time I scrolled over Cap on the character select screen and thought about how much of a miracle it is that Nintendo still bothers to include him.

All that said, while I'm not the biggest F-Zero fan, I'm glad that Captain Falcon is still playable, as if he's being grandfathered into each successive iteration of Smash. I feel the same about Ness, only difference being that his inclusion means a little bit more because I'm a Mother fanboy.

Captain Falcon is one of the most popular SSB characters, in addition to having been there from the start. He also keeps the F-Zero franchise alive, good for occasional plugs like those in Nintendo Land and MK8, and perhaps some day a new FZ. The cap'n is here to stay.

You'd think that playing at around 2 - 3 PM EU time on a Sunday instead of late in the evening during weekdays would improve the situation of who you're getting matched with in For Glory.

Nope. 8 people from the US and 2 from Japan when I searched for 10 players, all with varying degrees of tangible lag. Regional filter where?

 

[Metroid]

Anyone up for a match? I'm located in Europe and my NNID is rosejo

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Ffa anyone?

I'm up for it.

 

[ruffles]

Added you, BlueScorte. Made a room for anyone that wants in.

 

[The Bankslammer]

So it looks like the Japanese version of Smash Wii U has an exclusive song...

are you fucking kidding me

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Any 2v2 or FFA going on right now?

 

[The Bankslammer]

seriously what the fuck kind of ass-backwards decision is this

in the year of our lord 2014 localizers don't think america can handle a song with only japanese lyrics? even though we've had those in other smash bros games? even though we have those in THIS smash bros game?

god

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Well that's just dumb. Strangely expected, though.

Any 2v2 or FFA going on right now?

I don't know if Timeaisis is still available for one, but I am.

I have a room open for ffa. My ID is rcarroyo.

I'll join yours, then.

Too busy studying for finals. I might put on SSS later tonight, though.

yea i dont think thats the reason they didnt add it in then. Has anyone checked if Japaneses has all of our songs?

Edit: It replaces the english version of Ashley's Song.

so yea we get an exclusive song as well and i doubt the Japaneses audience are flipping tables because of it.

 

[ruffles]

Room is up again

 

[BlackProdigy]

Room is up again

ID?

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Room is up again

On my way.
Edit: I don't see it. Did you accept my friend request?

 

[BlackProdigy]

Any Open Rooms?

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Ha, the items were completely in my favor for that one. I especially liked the mine trap that I set up where the Assist Trophy appeared near.

 

[BokehKing]

Just picked up a wii u, is this a lot of fun for single player? I'm at the age where friends wives don't let them out the house.

 

[ruffles]

Any Open Rooms?

It's rcarroyo.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

It's rcarroyo.

You'll have to disband the room to accept his request so he can join, though, since I think he just came online.

 

[DoT2]

Anyone down for some 1v1 no items? Nnid kkoryu

 

[BlackProdigy]

It's rcarroyo.

I added you

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

I still don't see the room. Can you make it Flux, since I already have you in my list.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Well, this is more complicated than it should be... Alright, I'll host the room.

DaBlackProdigy, I don't know your NNID. Mine's FluxWaveZ.

 

[Kyzon]

1v1 anyone?

 

[BlackProdigy]

Well, this is more complicated than it should be... Alright, I'll host the room.

DaBlackProdigy, I don't know your NNID. Mine's FluxWaveZ.

I've added you

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Alright, lobby's up... now.

 

[Crab Milk Mickey]

Anyone up for a match? I'm located in Europe and my NNID is rosejo

I've sent you a friends request if you want to play some 1 vs 1 with no items. Feel free to decline if you're not interested.

 

[DoT2]

1v1 anyone?

Kyzon, play?

 

[SmithnCo]

So it looks like the Japanese version of Smash Wii U has an exclusive song...

Man, it blows they didn't localize that.

 

[DoT2]

Just picked up a wii u, is this a lot of fun for single player? I'm at the age where friends wives don't let them out the house.

You can always play online too.

I don't think anyone is doing any "flipping tables," lol. Losing out on a new arrangement is a much bigger loss than losing out on a song that's already in the game, but in a different language. Like, I wouldn't mind if they replaced the Brawl JP Ashley theme with the new JP Ashley theme in the English version, for instance.

Though, in the end... why not include all of them in all versions? It's silly. We ended up with a version of the game that has no brand new Wario arrangements, which sucks.

 

[daripad]

Anyone up for some 1v1?

 

[Kyzon]

Kyzon, play?

Haha, well, alright. Sorry, Daripad, seems our connection isn't fit for a full room.

Holy crap at that ending, haha.

 

[ruffles]

Lol!

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Haha dat bat finish.

 

[Rafavert]

Guys, I'd like to ask you something:

What do you think of Shulk? Both as an opponent and using him.

I've been using Shulk a lot and this week I fought 2 friends (One a smash veteran who has the 3DS version) and another who only played Brawl + this one (and only a few hours with me)

Both ended up complaining Shulk is overpowered, either because his counter was too easy to use (I'd argue it's them who are predictable), because of the monado arts and Shulk's ability to rack up damage quickly with Buster and KO easily with Smash or a combination of the two.

What's your opinion?

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

GGs guys but I'm done for today.
