Super Smash Bros. for Wii U |OT2| Only Game Where You Can Beat Up The Duck Hunt Dog
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
I just got around to uploading the worst thing that happened yesterday in gfycat form - the Lylat Bowser fortress bullshittery. Just look at that shit. The stage killed me, I had too much leftwards momentum to save myself. You cannot fall off a platform with fortress normally. How can their implementation of the shifting stage be such shit? How can this stage be considered legal or in some cases a "neutral" stage? Why is this stage not banned? Goddamnit this pissed me off.
His dongness escapes me
Ha will see what I can do.
Will catch up with you then, probably Wednesday is what it's looking like...

That was quite...a thing, yeah. Never would've expected that.
Anyways, still looking for a 1v1 if anyone is still up

I'll play for a little while, NNID same as Gaf name.
If you don't have a turbo controller, crazy orders can get you a good number of customs assuming you have equipment that sets up your character with a home run bat. For maximum safety, having 2 other equipments that lower the bat charge-up time and regenerate health or the first hit one that gives you some seconds of invulnerability if you deliver the first hit of the match.
Depends what you're trying for. If you're trying to unlock a specific character's customs, the Ganondorf target blast trick works best even without a turbo controller. Turbo controller Ganondorf target blast farming is the best automated method at the moment.

Turbo Ganondorf is at work on 3 consoles in my apartment as I type this.
Being a Smash TO is something else.
Also shout-outs to Gamestop for the 7-day return policy on these controllers.

Yeah that was...unfortunate to say the least
Edit:
Oh wow you can seriously combo that with a footstool?
Ha I hope for your sake that you unlock them all in 7 days... it's very likely that won't be enough time. But that's why there's multiple Gamestops I suppose.

You did beat the Captain once to say the least.

i simply cannot play the 3ds version of smash anymore. it just leads to frustration. i can never win online, sometimes ill go 3 or 4 matches(in a row) without even getting a single kill wii u is better for me, i win more often and less spammers from my experience.

Personally I found the 3ds easier than the Wii U.
As for dealing with spammers, my basic mindset is that if I don't know how to deal with them, then it's my fault. Many times I eventually figured out a counter and wrecked the spammer in another match later.

I've decided to try playing Smash 64 competitively, see if I have fun with that like I do with PM. Anyone here also play it?
Oh, and if anyone else can record matches with other GAF friends I encourage you to do so and upload them so we can all review together!
For those who are lost on this, this is what he's talking about. I won't believe it unless we get an announcement tomorrow at the latest. The details do seem credible, and not very-wishlist like except for the dream Paper Mario game and Star Fox feat. Platinum Games. What excites me the most, however:
Super Smash Bros. 64 for Wii U VC
Ignoring that these details are Europe-centric, I can't wait for this and I wouldn't care at all about the rest of the direct if we just got this.

Regarding the GAF Doubles Friendly:
As of right now, we have 6 registered teams and 3-4 leftover folks, which should make for a nice and even 8. If people would still like to register, you may do so by filling out the form at the end of this paragraph, available by quoting this post...
The single entries who do not currently have a partner or have not confirmed their partner with me are:
For the other guys (that's 12 people, pretty good for a niche category), I'll be making the bracket public on Friday for all to see. I'd suggest that you all do what you can to ensure connection is smooth in preparation for the actual tournament. Given how small the tournament is (it's a friendly so whatever), I'm going to give players a maximum of 2 weeks to complete their match for each round. If anyone has questions regarding rules or whatever, feel free to PM me.
Now that I've done that, back to 64 I go. :3

I don't have any practice at doubles, but if anyone still needs a partner by the deadline I'll play.
And I really hope Stage Builder does get upgraded. It's way too sparse right now.

I don't want to believe. I don't have a 3DS copy for the Mewtwo credit and don't want to wait until June, that's ridiculous.

So I've got a friend who's into Smash, but is as so many of us are, not actually particularly good at it. For reference, whenever me and him play 1 on 1, it's... pretty one sided in my favor. I mentioned how I had asked you guys for help in dissecting what I do, to come up with better strategies or tips, and he's interested. He mains Megaman, which I know is not the ideal starter character for trying to break into the more competitive side of Smash, but if he uploads some Youtube videos, would you guys be able to give him some tips? He registered for a GAF account this morning, but who knows how long that'll take before he's activated.

I hope "new music" means actual new music and not just Sakurai pretending like Miiverse's remixes are "new music"
Like I want my DK Map screen, Mother Shop theme and Fountain of Dreams music back, thanks.
This is assuming that isn't just all made up.

OMG I need Fountain of Dreams back. Greatest theme in the series.
Also just found out about Ganon farming the customs. Good stuff, nice and easy to do at work, even without a turbo controller (and actually a bit faster since I can just skip ones that don't have a part)
It's all made up.

Eh, probably. But it's worth humoring. Like the Ganondorf Amiibo stuff in Hyrule Warriors needs to be gauntlets that make Ganondorf use his Smash Bros moves in Hyrule Warriors. This needs to happen.
It's just a collection of vague stuff we already knew (like Mewtwo is soon), plus a bunch of rumors and other leaks (like Splatoon Amiibos, wave 5 Amiibos with Jiggly, Duck Hunt and Ganon, etc).
Worst comes to worst, we know if it's real or fake by tomorrow.
At a certain beginner level what's most important is mastering the fundamentals. Then getting a bit more complicated by looking into turn-around back airs, pivot grabs and character specific techniques. All while building good shielding/spot dodging and defensive reflexes, a lot of which has to do with matchup experience.
I'd find a video guide (perhaps someone can help me with whichever basics guide is considered best now), and work on fundamentals.
Watching good players gives you something to aim for, something I wish I had more of for Bowser... As a competitive viewer not paying that much attention to Mega Man vids, I've come across:
Kismet (ultra aggressive Mega Man player)
https://youtu.be/-u4UhbgICng
https://youtu.be/eGNu-a0NHJk
Zucco (more stylish Mega Man)
https://youtu.be/apqbqBDbGPo
https://youtu.be/8NRQHu23TU8
Ninjalink
https://youtu.be/DEYTgOTXn1I
There are other, probably better examples (and videos) too. Our own Tipster is very good, probably better than the best Mega Man player in my region's competitive scene.

Someone has "leaked" some (obviously fake) footage of Mewtwo and Roy on the CSS and briefly in the Onett stage. Surprised it hasn't been posted here yet!
It's clearly fake given the lack of sound and shaky cam that hilariously refuses to even try to show the whole screen, but I have to say, I've seen worse as far as fake leaks go. It's not bad.

Yeah sure, we're not above critiquing vids if it means helping others improve.
Tell him to go for it!The source doesn't appear to be from 4chan, but rather some Google Plus user under the name of Phoenix Wright. Of course, it's the most dubious source ever if you click on his profile and it's most likely fake given I see nothing else being a possible origin point.
But still, "BELIEVE" and all that, blah blah blah.

Wow, I've never a "phantom KO" like that before. I didn't even know that could happen. Crazy!
Both the direct and the leak are fake as hell.

As a Mega Man main myself, watching Kismet play him is really inspiring. He's currently the best of all the high-profile Mega Man players IMO. His movement and spacing are just incredible, and he couldn't utilize Mega Man's regular buster shots more perfectly. Strange how he never use the Crash Bomber, though - that's one of Mega Man's best specials!
Either way, I've been doing pretty well with my Mega Man and I feel I'm decently good with him, but I'm of course nowhere near that level. Really amazing stuff.
Those commentators during Kismet's matches (especially the second one) were insufferable, though. They had so little to add and just went off on their own non-Smash-related tangents so often that they might as well not have even been there. I find that it's pretty hard to find Smash commentators who aren't insufferable, though...

Smash Bros. Wii U commentators seem to rarely talk about the game, and when they do, it's to be shocked and amazed by things like Link using bombs to extend his recovery.

Ganondorf already Warlock Punches his energy ball though.
Besides I highly doubt localizing Fatal Frame 5 is gonna happen.
