My friend asked me a question: If I patch the game, would I be able to play with non-patched people? Because since we're going to the event tomorrow, everyone will have non-patched versions, and we would be the outliers.

I heard that it can cause weird issues when playing locally.

I'm sure the patch is mainly for online. Local wireless play should not be affected if that's how you'll play the game. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong on this one.

Mario is the shit in this game and I always main him anyway (besides Fox)

I do miss the b+down whirlwind tho so i'll try the doc for a bit

All tornado does in this game is make Doc's recovery as good as Mario's. FLUDD is honestly better, despite being very situational

What are the difference between Doc and Mario, anyway?

-FAir doesn't spike, rather it launches forward.
-NAir is a reverse sex kick. It gets stronger the longer it's active.
-New (old) DAir
-FSmash is stronger, but doesn't have as much range.
-DThrow launches further (so it doesn't really combo like Mario's)
-Up B is a single hit move with a sweet spot, but doesn't travel as far
-Side B doesn't stall in the air, you still fall when using it
-I think USmash has a meteor smash property when it hits a grounded opponent like in Melee, but not sure on this one, or if it's stronger than Mario's on aerial opponents.
-Apparently his DSmash here is actually weaker?
-Dunno if his dtilt sends opponents behind him like in Melee.
-In Melee Doc couldn't wall jump unlike Mario. Maybe the same here?
-Dunno if his BAir still semi spikes as well.

Doctor Mario doesn't have FLUDD, he has the tornado as a down special instead. And his down aerial is a spinning kick instead, like Mario's old one.

Doc is a little stronger, but has different knockback and range on some of his attacks. For example his Fair is not a meteor like Mario's.

Pills are also better than fireballs at space control due to how they bounce.
 
Oh yeah, I never saw this answered...

Since MP is dual-cart instead of single-disc like the console ones, how does local multiplayer work when choosing characters if not all of them are unlocked in one version?

yeah, these all sound good. I mean not that i've gotten a chance to play doc since years ago but im hopeful he'll be rad here

down smash weaker is bs tho D:


im gonna get the hang of the 2 since FLUDD can be worthless on characters with the best recoveries

I'd guess either player can just select from the characters they have available. Not sure why it would be any different, doesn't make sense for the game to punish a player that unlocked more stuff by not letting them use it.

Imagine the Shulking. And Lil Mac'ing. Damnit I want to play every character!
Click to expand...

aside from my main and subs, I need to play with Palutena, Rosalina, Lil Mac, Shulk, WFT, Robin & Greninja, good thing they're available from the start, the only characters I want to unlock right away are Lucina, Ganondorf and Falco, does anyone know how? some posts above said that you have to clear classic with a FE rep for Lucina, dunno the other two

Clear classic with a Zelda character for Dorf iirc, and Falco is like the first unlock after classic, or finishing 20 matches.
 
I should be worried that Amazon still hasn't shipped my game but i have so many assignments due that i won't even be able to play it.
 
was all ready to dl this at midnight... but then, now that i think about it servers will probably be hit REAL hard.

Might just give gamestop a call to see if they are doing midnight :/
 
I'll be picking up the game at target first thing tomorrow morning. Gonna bring my 3DS. If I'm lucky, I'll find some people doing the same and play some Smash in the cafeteria area.

neat, if I only have to beat classic 3 times in a row that's perfect

I think it's a good time to add people on the 3DS, wanna SETTLE IT with GAFers x)

eh you'll be able to download it fine. online play is where it might get weird
 
I got the game yesterday but didn't have time to play it until about 6 hours ago. Needless to say, I only took a break to have dinner.

Still need to unlock some characters but the game is fantastic.
 
also yeah, im gonna have to do a clean up of my full friend list :/

wish the game had mario golf style lobbies so hard

Cool, thanks. Sounds good except the fair lacking meteor smash and the dthrow not as combo-able. I'll try them both out. I always liked Doc's dedicated tornado over the stupid FLUDD. Cape was better in Melee, too, IIRC.


Look at me, multi-quoting everyone. Now I just need to throw a Miku GIF in here and I'd be just like Horizon.
 
I just realized something.

Remember how in the character trailer, Falcon punched away the sword like it was nothing?
There is one other character that can do that.

(He snapped it in addition to deflecting it but it's not that important).

Sadly no. IIRC there's priority unlock if using classic mode method. So you have to do it more than 3 times to unlock the one you wanted (in which case Lucina & Ganondorf)

would it?

hmmm i recall animal crossing or fire emblem... some game hit the servers pretty hard.

And isn't smash a pretty hefty download?
Click to expand...

It might take a long ass time, but the download will make it through eventually.

It's online play you should be worried about.
