They say you can start lining up at 9 and it closes at 12:30. You are free to show up anytime. I am going at 11:30 because I am with you. I am going to pre-order Weds. To guarantee a copy.

Yeah you just go at 9 to finish paying your game and usually get a ticket or order, and then come back at 11:55 pm or so, and you get in line according to your order and get your game at 12

Duck Hunt Dog is apparently "Duck Hunt Duo" in the English version.

Also I'm cool with Falco's new voice.

He might be playing the UK version.

Since on the stream Wii Fit Trainer had British voices.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Yeah, I want to go a little early to try local play with others using the demo.

Also I only read the first couple of paragraphs, so my bad! My mind tunes out after 5. After reading it, it basically says for both communities to get along.

I'm still reading it but what I've read so far is really good so I thought I'd share it.

Great article. Glad to see he's taking a stand on this issue as well.

 

[georly]

People were saying that online has less lag than local play.

Been playing local multiplayer for 2 hours now, zero lag whatsoever. It's perfect.

I think there are tons of things that can affect wireless play, but none of those issues are present at my home.

 

[Ricky 7]

Local lag? Oh no. I experienced it quite a bit whilst playing 4 players on the demo but I just thought it was something wrong with one of our 3DSs and that the demo had some bugs. If it's a common issue this could be a problem for me.

Yeah it appears to be totally situational. The first time I played the demo with a friend there was constant lag and another time it was perfect. The place was the same only difference was that there were more people around the first time.

Oh wow this is a great read.

If anyone gets the time I recommend you read it all. Really insightful as usual from Prog.

Seeing the GameXplain footage hurt me bad. I had flashbacks to Brawl slideshow matches. Luckily I have no local friends! ... Wait a minute ...

Yeah, I'm pretty fine with the name after discussing with someone in chatroom. It would make sense that Hunter is trying to shoot at Duck (and Dog).

How Gamestop's typically do their midnight launches is they open at 9 PM, let everyone pay for their game and get a reciept, and then when it hits 12, they just look at your receipt and hand you a game.

So you can show up at 11:45, and be fine, at 12:10, or even show up at 9, pay and go home, and then return at 12.

But will I be stuck at the back of a super long line if I show up at 11:45 or so? Granted, it'll be different for every store, but could you guess how long the line would be for a game like Smash? I've never shown up for a midnight release, mainly because I don't want to have to wait around for a long time, finally get the game, and by the time I get home head off to bed right away. But if the store's not likely to be totally mobbed, I'll consider it.

Are there more "Tips" in the full version? Or does the demo have all of them?

Smash 4 and Project M will complement each other nicely in the coming years

Good stuff. They also posted some new animations for art Tuesdays.

Along with practicing PM today I also modded it to work with Wiimmfi for online play and set up a forwarder. Still need to get an ethernet adapter and get my connection working in my room again.

Not yet

Can we just make this the 2 days GIF?

Where is this from?

Male Robin is nice to Lucina:
"Lucina, i hope i didn't hurt you."

D'awww :3c

 

[Fiktion]

Meta Knight sill has an Spanish accent.

Fox disses Falco:
"Better luck next time, Falco."

Falco disses Fox :
"You're off your game, Fox!"

Lucina disses Marth and Ike:
"And they called you the Radiant Hero?"
"THIS is the hero king?"

Dark Pit disses Pit
"Where is your goddess now?"

Palutena disses Dark Pit and Pit
"Poor little Pittoo?"
"Oh, so sorry about this Pit." (She is not!)

Male Robin is nice to Lucina:
"Lucina, i hope i didn't hurt you."

Female Robin disses Lucina:
"How can you protect Chrom, when you can't protect yourself?"

Strangely Sonic, Lucario and Wii Fit Trainer are the only character speaking German in the German version.

Is this real? When do they say these lines, on the victory screen?

What are some resources to look into getting good? I want to get good.

First place to look is in yourself. Do you have what it takes? Do you have the heart for Smash?

Spoiler

SSBWiki is a really good resource for terminology and just general game info.

 

[Kriken]

Not a chance in hell I'm standing around a mall for 3 hours just to get a video game. I'll pick up my preorder when the store opens Friday morning.

General Guy would stand in a mall for 3 hours waiting for Smash 4

I have fingers and thumbs that hurt from obessively playing the demo. So, yes!

Thanks

no he wouldn't, he would just get a bunch of Shy Guys to seize a copy for him

I got the Eye of the Tiger, is that enough?

Anyways I thought about getting good, but I rather just have fun than stress about making mistakes. Competitive play is not in my blood.

 

[J@hranimo]

I've never seen it in game.

Huh, looks like a Smash Bros specific item like the capsule or box.

 

[mmxzero]

I didnt realize Yoshi had a couple more glitches found after the egg throw teleport, now a super jump and the giant characters in multiman melee. Useless, but neat.

 

[Kriken]

Well he'd send in a few first to take the brunt then he'd enter the mall and take the copy himself. Nobody touches General Guys' copy of Smash Bros but General Guy

Somebody (Revven?) made a good post about getting started a couple days ago I think, don't remember where it was though.

Yeah, I've felt like this for a long time now and it generally seems like it's going to play out well.

 

[TheSlySoul]

I really hope it is not fixed by Friday. I really want to take pictures of huge fighters. Best glitch in a long time.

No worries! Another resource I've been using is Ninjalink's youtube channel. He's been going over custom moves, which have been a big debate in the community right now, and has all of them up. He also puts up some general mechanic stuff, like this one focusing on some new things discovered for Robin. I'd definitely go through and check out the customs for characters you may use, as some of them really change characters' play style (see: Samus, Ganondorf).

 

[Canon]

Are custom moves allowed online?

Yoshi standing upright = YOU HAVE GONE AGAINST THE NATURAL ORDER

Only with friends.

No, only with your friends

 

[Pancakes]

Tried to be sneaky and get the game early at Walmart and BJ's, no luck. Bought Shadows of Mordor on a whim to tide me over until Friday. Hopefully E-shop doesn't crash at 12AM.

I had no idea I was such an awful mother.

Yeah, I'm pretty fine with the name after discussing with someone in chatroom. It would make sense that Hunter is trying to shoot at Duck (and Dog).

I hadn't thought of it like that - it actually reminds me of that Urban Champion dual character concept when laid out in that manner. Regardless, I like the name; it's a natural extension of the original title, similar to Ice Climbers. And retroactively justifying the DHD acronym is a bonus.

 

[TheSlySoul]

I have to give you props for marrying Chrom.

Spoiler

I did as well. I am a terrible mom.
