ROB.

 

[Anth0ny]

DACUS IS BACK

good luck pulling it off without destroying your circle pad, though.

 

[OricWindstar]

Seriously, every GAFer I have played with has had a lawless connection with me. This is amazing.

 

[Timeaisis]

Clearly I don't understand Rosalina lol.

 

[Durden77]

If I open my 3DS and see 39% one more time...

 

[exfatal]

Anyone wanna battle?

I know Dark Pit is wrong because I did it with 3.

input lag in every online match so far is kind of a bummer

you "get used to it" tho

GG matt and the rest

Ike is incredible. Obviously he's ineffective vs anyone you can't land all those smashes on, but when those smashes hit... Wow.

And his side special completely negates Greninja's zoning abilities. I thought that'd be a horrible For Glory match-up for him, but I just absolutely wrecked a Greninja that was dominant on my Link.

 

[J@hranimo]

THE DOC

IS IN DA HOUSE

 

[jorgejjvr]

Trying Robin?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

2 stocked. ;_;
Yeah just wanted to try him.

 

[sti4thewin]

Omg 3ds analog is horrible. It's starting to stick Noooo

 

[dani_dc]

And a picture just because why not.

Cannot wait to get home and play. ;__;

I want my first online match to be with a GAFer, so I hope you guys are around around 9pm GMT!

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

Looks like gametrailers didn't apply the day 1 patch in their review. They show footage of it performing really badly even in local multiplayer for their review footage which I think is the case if one or all players don't update, I believe.

GGs. My poor Lucina. :-(

 

[thepotatoman]

Havent changed it, since it hasnt bothered me really.

I can relearn new controls, so it's not the end of the world, just frustrating how easy it should be to allow something other than two jumps.

Oh well, if there's really no way to do it...

 

[Crayolan]

Well shit, I thought that was official.

And a picture just because why not.

New 3DS sales strategy is going well I see.

 

[J@hranimo]

Damn, and you guys are all OG 3DS owners...

I gotta be careful...

 

[OricWindstar]

Haha, I guess we're doing 3! Let's see how the connection holds up.

 

[dani_dc]

Would be going better if it wasn't a 2015 release

 

[exfatal]

yea my bad was jsut hitting buttons, hope it hold up good

lmao i keep forgetting about 2 stocks thought i had another life in me lol

Hey Oric do you have room on your friends list? Would it be cool if you could add me? I want as many SmashGAF regulars as possible.

My code is 1650-2579-0495 btw, and as always anyone is welcome to add me.

heading out to my local Gamestop in 20 minutes WISH ME LUCK GUYS OMG SMASH [3DS] IS COMING OUT

 

[jorgejjvr]

Robin is pretty powerful

 

[Codeblue]

Clearly I don't understand Rosalina lol.

Same. Didn't quite figure out Robin either.

Ike is incredible. Obviously he's ineffective vs anyone you can't land all those smashes on, but when those smashes hit... Wow.

Ike seems to have gotten a bit better for sure. He's a little quicker, his moves seem to come out faster, and some of his aerials don't have the lag they did in Brawl (I can Nair off the stage and it not be a death sentence). I'm fearful that he'll get left behind as the meta game develops though.

Also, Eruption is blue now, which is awesome.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Robin is pretty powerful

I killed myself with that neutral B twice.
Good Game!

 

[Crayolan]

Would be going better if it wasn't a 2015 release

They expect you to buy a new one and break that one too before it comes out.

Spoiler

Sorry

 

[Shamrock7r]

As an avid Brawl online player, so far the matches have had FAR less lag on smash3ds. It's night and day

 

[TheSlySoul]

I will try all the rumors to see if they are right. I am confirming Classic Mode unlocks.

 

[Porsche9146]

Also, Eruption is blue now, which is awesome.

Somehow, even after watching hours of streams, I didn't know this until I triggered it and landed it on a fool in mid-air in For Glory. It's just the best.

 

[BGBW]

I now have to beat Xenoblade before the postmad arrives this morning or I'll end up being the only GAFer today getting Smash and not playing it.

 

[Durden77]

Any of you guys playin in 3D? I actually really like the 3D on the 3DS, but I'm sure it'll be really hard to keep on with this game. Looking forward to that N3DS mainly because it apparently fixes the sweetspot issues.

 

[theprodigy]

Nintendo had Sakurai make games to break people's old 3DS so they would upgrade

[saltine161]

Loving the game so far, it's a bit faster than brawl, and with items turned on it gets chaotic fast but in a good way. Pac man and Megman are awesome love playing as them.

 

[jorgejjvr]

Damn little Mac!

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Yes!!! Landed the KO punch.

Nah, I don't like 3D cause I have to keep my head perfectly in the sweet spot. I usually play my 3DS in weird positions/odd angles.

 

[OricWindstar]

Oh wow, aside from the weird hiccup at the end, 3 FFA worked great.

 

[Timeaisis]

Well that's all for me tonight. Great games!

Had no problems with the demom but since this will eventually just become by travel Smash game I'll likely be playing it in 2D most of the time.

 

[NateDrake]

Who is in the room with Salsa and myself? Keramos?

 

[Teknoman]

Damn it, the power went out and I can't charge my 3ds... Guess that means sleep time...was just getting used to little Mac too. Also looking at the true last boss plus samurais past...guy needs to make an RPG already.

 

[OricWindstar]

Well that's all for me tonight. Great games!

GGs!

 

[watershed]

Where do I go to check the global smash ranking? I thought there were both individual rankings and some kind of region ranking or something?

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Lv. 9 CPUs with counter moves have absolutely perfect timing.
