Super Smash Brothers Brawl

im quoting this becuase i think im stupid and i cant figure out how to do this

when you are selecting the characters, just change your colours with the same colour to the person you want to team with. press your colour before you pick a character. same colour = same team

is there a way to play on teams like there used to be? if there is, i havent been able to do it. such as, got 4 of us playing, can we go 2 vs 2?

here's what I've noticed while i've played:

the "tap up to jump" feature is now "move your joystick up and your character will jump", so I turned that off. the classic controller is good to play with, but for some reason the shield is the outside button and grab is the tiny button next to it, which is silly IMHO, so i changed that as well.

subspace emissary is ridiculously long and not very fun. at all. the controls are not conducive to a side-scrolling beat-'em-up, despite what nintendo wishes to think.

meta-knight is fucking pimp. straight up broken. seriously, i can just stand there and hit 'a' a few times and you've got an extra 10% on you. his final smash is almost a guaranteed kill if they are >45%. Donkey Kong's final smash is lame as FUCK.

Start off by going into vs mode and setting it to Stamina Flower. Give the AI 1 HP and yourself more than 1 HP. Pick Donkey Kong and play on Shadow Moses Island for 15 matches. After five matches, you'll unlock Ness, after ten you'll unlock Marth, and after fifteen you'll unlock Snake and the Snake Eater Instrumental track. Switch the stage to Yoshi's Island (melee) and play 5 more matches. After three more, you'll unlock the Super Mario World demo, and after five more you'll unlock 75m (DK arcade). 20 matches total.

Now switch your character to Kirby and play 5 more matches on Yoshi's Island (melee). After two more, you'll unlock Luigi, and after five more you'll unlock Jungle Japes. Sticking with Kirby, play the next ten matches on Pokemon Stadium 2 to unlock Pokemon Stadium. Now switch to the Halberd and play five more matches to unlock Green Greens. 40 matches total.

Switch to Luigi and play five more matches still on the Halberd. You'll unlock Luigi's Mansion (3 matches) and the Goruda music (5 matches). Next, switch your character to Peach and the stage to Mushroomy Kingdom for 10 more matches. After 3 matches, you unlock the Super Mario Bros 2 demo, after 5 matches, you unlock Falco, and after 10 matches, you unlock the underwater Mario music. 55 matches total.

Play the next 10 matches on those default stage builder stages (character no longer matters) to unlock stage parts A. Play the next five on Frigate Orpheon, and then you'll unlock Captain Falcon. Play five more on Frigate Orpheon, using Captain Falcon this time, to unlock the Metroid Ending music. Switch to Port Town, and after five matches you'll unlock Big Blue and the Peach's Castle (melee) music. Your character doesn't matter anymore, but play five more matches on Port Town to unlock the music track "Dream Chaser". 85 matches total.

Switch to Castle Siege and play 15 matches to unlock the track "Powerhungry Fool" after 10 matches and Lucario after 15 matches. 100 matches total.

Unfortunately, things slow down a bit here. Character and stage don't matter, just play a bunch more matches. After 60 more, you'll unlock R.O.B., and after 100 more you'll unlock Ganondorf. After unlocking Ganondorf, play 50 more to unlock Mr. Game and Watch and Flat Zone 2 and 100 more to unlock Sonic and Green Hill Zone. 300 matches total.

Play the next 10 matches on Green Hill Zone to unlock some Sonic music, and then continue playing matches on any stage until you unlock Jigglypuff (350 matches total) and Toon Link and the Great Sea stage (400 matches total). Play the next 10 as Toon Link to unlock the Ocarina of Time demo and then 40 more with anyone to unlock Wolf, All Star mode, and the Menu 2 music. 450 matches total, and you now have all characters.

yeah I don't have Sonic yet either, I hope he's a lot of fun but I fear him being uncontrolable fast.

Played it around 2am on sunday morning, it's pretty nice

unlocked snake, he's cool as is Pit. Meta Knight is cheapness incarnate, which in a way makes him fun to play sometimes

haven't unlocked sonic yet, coworker says he's fast as hell but tough to KO people with. Time will tell.

lol, same here. I've done way better using A, a hell of a lot more.

so i never played the previous super smash bros. games

i just spent the last hour+ playing this and still feel completely and totally lost

[royCE]

yea creature i did play...and pikachus down A is strong but it isnt overpowered... maybe it is to newbies but once you up there every move is plain

other than that, you have people here discussing how much roy was better than marth in melee...thats enough for me to not take this thread seriosuly anymore...

imma go make a Brawl friend code thread, hopefully some will reply

[Ignominy]

DREs are rampant

before i actually waste time shipping off the wii, is there a way to manually clean the lens?

I tried compressed air with no results, I REALLY recommend not trying to clean it yourself. Nintendo upped their repair staff a lot for the release of this game, and they're estimating full turnaround time at a week. They mail you a label and the shipping and repair is all free.

Part of the reason this is happening is that Brawl uses a special dual layer encoding and that's why other games still work fine. Apparantly it's supposed to make it harder to steal but a couple people in the smash circuits here have been playing it for two months.

With how much brawl was delayed, it's just another week. Heartbreaking, but insignificant in comparison.
