Barely played the game 15 minutes and...well...fuck. I could cry. Was planning on having some sick games at work tomorrow too.

Ouch, that sucks. Though at least if it's only the cap you can glue it back on.

I've been really conscious about being gentle on my pad, because I'm paranoid about this happening.

 

[NickWright]

The same happened to my circle pad. It's true I've played the game A LOT these past days, but still.

Hope we find a solution to fix this

and our hearts.

 

[Stoof]

Got an entire ducking workday to dog through, and then maybe some boozing in the afternoon before I can get home and pay the au eshop hasn't crashed

Get smashed before you smash?

 

[Blackstarhat]

will using it very gently prevent the circle pad from breaking.

Damn, I will rage if my pad comes flying off this morning. To have wasted the last 15 hours of pad life on the demo! I really feel for you guys

 

[Kouriozan]

Lucina incoming for me.

Probably.

Also light caressing and whispering sweet nothings have been shown to help too.*

Is it replaceable? That's probably going to happen to mine.

Edit: It is replaceable but you need to buy and take off the pad from a circle pad pro.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I'm guessing the demo needs to be installed to have the 500 coins transfer over?

Too bad Nintendo doesn't allow you to download the game locked before launch, then have a small unlock key released at midnight. The servers are going to be slammed so hard. Well, I wouldn't have been able to play so late at night anyway. A man can dream.

 

[SenorArdilla]

For every winner there must be a loser

You say that as though the two are equivalent.

Birthdays y'ken

downloadingggg

 

[Samurai_Heart]

Whoop finished Smash time finally ='D

 

[Wichu]

...aaaaand downloading. Too bad I have work so I won't be able to play it as much as I'd like today

 

[Blues1990]

As far as my progress with Mega Man, I can do fine with two level 9 CPU's (usually getting 3 kills and being knocked out once), but it's a completely different ball game when a third one is added to the mix. Any tips?

 

[Nudull]

Less than 5 hours to go. c:

 

[SuperBowser]

downloading off the eshop right now in uk!!!

so exciting. just arrived back from a holiday in america and i'm working a 12 hour shift tomorrow. not sure how much sleep i'm gonna get....

 

[Molemitts]

You say that now, but as soon as you get into an intense battle, all that "looking after the circle pad" stuff gets thrown out the window!

 

[Jarate]

so does anybody have a guide for unlocking the characters and the stages?

 

[Porcile]

Downloading! I'll play in the morning.

 

[Kouriozan]

Play Smash mode with one stock and CPU, lose 9 match and win the 10th everytime.
You'll get everyone in no time.

I'm awful against 3 CPUs as Mega Man myself. I think he just doesn't do that well in that type of format unless it's a stock match. He doesn't have enough kill moves that work well against multiple opponents.

 

[Kouriozan]

Alright, one more Smash Run and that first wall will be completed.

 

[zroid]

I don't know how so many people's circle pads are breaking :lol

You guys are all brutes!

 

[Incendiary]

Just requested to cancel my pre-order since it still wasn't shipping yet, gonna download it at midnight instead because I couldn't wait. So add me to the many who are going digital for Smash.

 

[Gregorn]

I just unlocked ROB and noticed he's the wrong colour. What's that about?

 

[Clefargle]

Welcome brother!

 

[Chezzymann]

I just read the eurogamer review, and what? Mediocre fighting game? After watching some of those twitch tournaments with y'all -even with the anti competitive mechanics like rage and vector influence- the games mechanics seem super deep and flexible and I just don't see what makes it mediocre. Ah well, I guess the game's chaotic style doesn't click with everyone.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Famicom or NES colour?

If his default is NES in the NA/EU version that would be really cool.

Yeah, I was able to get some great ideas from this live stream, and I was impressed that he was able to hold that Shiek player at bay.

The thing about the circle pad preventing precision inputs was a little odd. I've found it surprisingly good.

 

[Storm Kyleis]

So would I have to save everything from my memory card onto a computer then copy everything to a micro sd card and do the transfer between the systems and I'll be able to have everything on the new 3ds?

It's even easier, you can transfer from a 3DS to another nearby 3DS.

If I order a download code from game.co.uk does anyone know if It'll arrive instantly?

I get it cheaper there because of points.

I think I prefer his red arms, but I guess it's a nice touch.

It is. The default color was changed depending on region, lol.

If anyone got the game today, I challenge you to beat me on stream like Joe did yesterday.

That attention to detail! That's awesome!

 

[RedShift]

3ds is in sleep mode downloading smash. Now time for me to go into sleep mode. Looking forward to playing in the morning.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Definitely prefer his Famicom colour as well, but I always thought the NES colour should have been his default in the west haha. Really cool that they did that!

So who is everyone's favorite newcomer? Without playing the full game I think Shulk might be my current favorite since I loved Xenoblade and his B looks interesting.

Robin.

I played M!Robin in Awakening but I'll be playing F!Robin in Smash for the sass.

 

[Unbounded]

Guys...

GUYS.

I can't contain my hype. I'll have the game in five hours.

How do I contain my hype?

 

[GJS]

If you have ordered a code from them before it generally comes within 5 minutes. If you haven't then they have to do verification or something and it will come the next day if you order now.

Bowser Jr being a zany and bizarre mech fighter instantly won me over. Koopalings being alts was a BIIIG plus too.

Really can't wait to try him out. His playstyle seems perfect for me. (Wario main lol)

Coolio. Let me finish classic mode and I'll be on in like 5. Haha, my defense for awfulness is that I've only had the game for 2 hours.

Totally a John, I know...

 

[Samurai_Heart]

Think server getting hammered the online connections aren't very stable now =/

How could I forget Robin... Damn might have to change mine then.
