I get Nintendo's weirdness about not wanting impressionable young children to exchange friend codes with a predator, but they could at least include some stock messages or some kind of way to communicate with someone in between rounds
I have played countless online games that allow you to add people after the match. Not once (other than in MMOs) have any of them bothered to play with me again unless I personally invite them AND write an essay on how great it'd be to have another great match.
Isn't the Wii U version going to allow you to see who you're playing against?
>>267686309
Will it? That would be handy, though I can't imagine Nintendo actually doing that.
>>267686309
It would be swapnote 2.0
>>267685795
Just a few minutes ago I had ten matches with 3 other players in For Fun and we all kept picking Toon Link, down taunting at the start and then fight. Shit was like Four Swords up in this bitch.
Anthony, if you read this, you are a bro.
>>267686931
I never understood how Swapnote got shut down but Miiverse keeps going. It seems like there's way more potential for abuse there.
>>267687356
Miiverse is moderated closer. Swaps notes just went between users only
>>267686928
Wii U has a "players met" section like PS3
>>267685795
Can't you take a screenshot of the bottom screen and post it on Miiverse? That way you can find people you played with. Of course the other one needs to check Miiverse, too, but if enough people start doing that regularly, that'll be the sureway to meet players.
Also it might give Nintendo a hint that we'd like the "add player" function
>>267689053
Nope. Can't access Miiverse while playing Smash Bros. Nut unless you get the New 3DS.

I really hate too, had some really good sets against skilled players that i would like to face again but i can't, i hope the Wii U version is different
>>267685795
But if we could communicate, there might be people who want to tell you that they hope you get raped on television and a few AM radio stations.

Who wants to play?
Why does nintendo even give a shit about "muh children"?
Sony doesn't, microsoft doesn't, online interaction is not rated by ESRB, if you let your children play online then you're a shit parent as it's your problem
Why is nintendo so beta?
>>267685795
Why can't Nintendo into online correctly?
I mean fuck, you should be able to atleast add people to some sort of friends list and invite them to games later on.

Because 99% of what they make is not intended to be played or seen by children in the first place and they make it a point for that to be known, even if kids buy CoD all the time. Nintendo makes games appropriate for everyone.
This is not hard to figure out.

You have to be kidding me. CoD probably loves kids, they see how much they don't give a shit about the ratings and they still buy them. That's fucking 10/10 brand loyalty.
I want the voice option thing from Pokemon X & Y at the very least in Smash. Nintendo better be working on a frucnking patch or update or something.

It's so weird. Maybe it's because I spent 4 years in college playing Brawl with friends weekly, but Smash is such a social experience to me. Playing it with some nobody I can't interact with at all is just not nearly as fun.
I usually try a quick taunt as a "Nice kill" when I respawn. It's nice when someone seems to get the message and do the same, but that's barely anything.

Online is the one functionality where Nintendo's consistently shit the bed.
You could argue that the exchange is not having to pay for online, but they're missing a lot of basic functionalities. Really behind in that regard.
Although, again, free online. Maybe that's the tradeoff.
>>267697062
It was nice because we kept switching characters after every match, so it was always a different matchup.

I don't know if I come off as playful or arrogant when I taunt after a kill. I'm trying to be playful, btw.

But does it make sense for them to purposefully withhold something that would benefit the game? I think Nintendo just don't know what they're doing with the online, or they're too worried about children seeing or reading foul language. No matter how I look at it, it just doesn't seem like a great move

The new down taunt feels off, mainly because it feels like G&W is actually displaying any sign of emotion. I still like to use it sometimes though. The sheer disrespect of it is fantastic when someone fucks up a recover. Other times I'll use it in fast, intense makes to show fatigue from how tedious the match is. However, they seem to take it the other way and get mad and things get crazier.

Can someone tell me how to play ness?
PK fire is slow so it has to be used at a distance, but PK fire also doesn't ravel far enough. I keep hitting the tips of their toes. They can block it, dodge it, hop over it, and special shit it. When it does connect, they fall out of it before I get to grab. And some dbz punching characters like mac and greninja can punch me from inside of it. It doesn't phase bowser at all.
Do I have to aim for the ledge when recovering every single time?
How do I combo people in the air? They go too high and get out of it easily.
And for the love of fuck how do I safely get back on the ground after getting smashed up? Even if I dodge their attack on the way down, the landing lag gets me killed by the follow up.
Who does it feel really bad to lose against? Jigglypuff? Peach?

Against scrubs, you can spam fire for spacing or when they stupidly rush you. Use the smashes to punish rollingfaggots. I also find that lots of players have trouble avoiding his basic running attacks stationary combos.
If you're playing against someone decent, I don't know. They'll never walk into your bat or your fire, and if you fuck up they'll punish you.

Does the Wii U have a recently played list, at least?
How do I counter Villagers that do nothing but hide behind their trees the entire match?
>>267702782
No meta yet, but he's how i play, firstly PK fire is super handy in the air as it comes down on the angle, if they come towards you, jump backs and PK fire, use it more for defence and bring your offence upon it's success, maybe run in for a backthrow (the launch on Ness's BThrow is great)
when edge guarding, learn the distance and timing for a PK Flash, it has a great AoE hitbox for guarding, if they are a character which goes high, turn around and Bair (Back Air) the fuck out of them ... if they try to go a little floating, jump out their and Dair them, it's hard to time in this game, but is great when successful

I am guilty of suiciding my stocks, but it's not because of rage, it's usually because the match is so laggy that I want to end the match as fast as I can, and I don't want to be penalized for DCing the game.

Mario is great, so is Peach. The only really bad character from the franchise this time around seems to be Luigi.
But anyways, Peach is good. Her aerials are quite heavy hitters and her F-Smash is fucking godly, provided you hit someone with the tennis racket.

Anyone here that really looked forward to maining someone they just can't get into?
For me its Palutena, I wanted to main the shit out of her but I fucking can't. Sometimes I think she's to slow, or that her jab is really awkward. And I don't really like her tilts or her air game. Goddamn, I really want to main her but I just can't into her playstyle. She feels like a really defensive character.

Meh.
It's crazy, during the first week I encountered several Greninja players, now after 150 1on1 I've met 0.
Also I found something pretty useful for Greninja, Shadow Sneak cancel all his ground lag.
So you can spam dair without worrying of getting punished for it.

>shrug if the foe accidentally kills themselves
I have to end matches when I kill myself and the opposing Kong does that. It's just the funniest damn thing and I can't concentrate.
>>267711297
Some annoying guy kept spamming dair into shadow sneak against me earlier in heavy lag. I thought Greninja was shit until I learned how good shadow sneak is as a kill move. Even better when you're on a dark stage and it's hard to see the shadow.

I always switch to falcon if I find a good falcon player.
Also, do you guys taunt when you get a kill in 1v1? I understand why you wouldn't if your character has a storable charge but a lot of times people just don't taunt ever.

So this is what true suffering is like
I find it ironic the way of keeping tabs on people you would like to continue gaming with on a Nintendo system is called friend code, when in actuality it's the most terrible way to keep a list of friends as well as making friends.
I hate these friend codes. I swear to christ almighty if these aren't gone by the next system, I'm seriously never buying anything Nintendo related again.
>>267717349
wii u doesn't have friend codes.
You can even add last played people too.
>Playing as Mega Man like I would Mega Man
>Actually winning with an all right record
This feels weirdly good. Like, jumping while staying mobile at max buster range and poking them to stop them cold while throwing Metal Blades to stop them even colder. Occasionally using Crash Bombs then gaining ground when they keep their shield up.
When they get close, hit them with a Flame Sword for that precious hit stun, then either shoot some more. If you're feeling frisky, use the Slash Claw to knock them over.
Problem is is that Mega Man's kill moves are almost utter shit; Slash Claw's okay, but only the last hit of it actually KOs. Flame Burst is shit albeit fatal at low percents, and Spark Shock's okay if the enemy's silly enough to jump in on you while you're not jumping around. Charge Mega Buster is utter shit and shouldn't ever be used since it's so slow and more likely than not will be reflected back at you.
On the other hand, Mega Upper is the coolest shit to land but is terribly unsafe if you screw up. Air Shooter's great if the enemy thinks their dive-kick/Bowser Bomb/Hip Drop will pierce through it, but otherwise good DI makes it hard to land. Hard Knuckle is hard to connect with since only the very last part of the knuckle (when it's almost vanished) counts as a meteor smash.I don't think people like fighting Mega Man, but I've never actually fought another good Mega Man; all of them usually sit still or even charge their buster. It's terrible.

Anyone else have almost too much lag to play? Like, every match. I've tried 4 different locations so I know it's not my internet. Is it just that bad?

This is my problem. I like Megaman just fine but they need to give him SOMETHING to kill with, I hope they plan on patches or something when the wiiU comes out.

At least he has it better than Pikachu.

You gotta learn how to shoot forward while jumping backwards to keep your distance. Slash Claw got a very shit hitbox if you're moving.
>>267717875
Even still, I dig this guy so much I can get past it. It feels so good when a dude air-dodges and lands right in front of me; this leads to a Mega Uppercut which can usually KO at 80%. Shit's so powerful. They usually get close by rolling too, so you can probably predict this and slab 'em hard with an Upper, too.
>>267705067
>>>/tumblr/
and stay there.
>>267702782
I like to think im good at Ness. Lean on his dash attacks and bat, and his aerials (aside from down), and grab grab grab. Ness' grabs are a solid 11%+ even without getting any smacks in. Tease and chase people with thunder if they try to kite you or avoid you, and don't be afraid to use fire defensively rather than offensively, but if you land it and can get in for the grab its worth a shot. I never bother with magnet or flash, they're too fucking slow now to even be REMOTELY useful. The yoyos are fine but leave you too open, i feel, also.
>opponent is dark pit
>match lasts for almost five minues
Every time. Can't blame them, that's just how Pit plays.
After playing classic mode from Mario, all the way down to Ness, I have formulated a opinion from my experiences. The problems I have with classic mode at least:
1. It honestly seems like the higher up in difficulty you go, the dumber your ally gets in team battles. Honestly, I would say you should just quit classic mode if you end up with your ally dead, and just you against the other team. They will be faggots, and just run around grabbing the items and double teaming you. I've beaten that situation a few times, but most of the time I die.
2. For some reason, metal characters in general can get kinda annoying, but only at first. I usually try to beat the crap out of them right from the start, but cause they don't flinch, they beat me down in response. After getting knocked away, they start collecting the items.
3. The fucking stage hazards I swear to god. There can be good combinations that work with the hazards, like 1v1 on magicant. But there can also be complete fucking bullshit matchups, like free for all on spirit train. At which point, I just run around avoiding everyone as I try to survive the train itself.
Honestly, it just feels like every match you should just be trying to collect the items and surviving off of that alone. Except for 1v1, which I am fine with all of the time. I really just wish that if I choose to quit classic mode, I should get none of my rewards up to that point, and get back the gold I bet in the first place.
>>267717984
Pikachu was also fucking awesome until I realized he has only like one move that sends people off screen. Seriously, he feels SO good in this game, it's amazing.
Just fighted a sick Toon Link. Wrecked my ass.
And before that, a lot of macfags and lucario fags. Fighting a spammer lucario with lag is pure hell.

>>267718391
>laggy Lucario
Fucking double team. Lag messes with that move and extends it or some shit. It isn't too bad, just grab em.
I played as ganon online and it was better than sex. I didn't even spam wizard foot or anything.
I was just sort of winging it and mixing downb and side b with smashes and generally avoided any aerials.
Anyone know any ganon skills they could share? It was the most fun i've had in the game so far, I think.
>>267718751
Side B is amazing. Fucks with counter guys. Forward and Down tilts are good, use em. As for air moves, fair is excellent.
I love facing Ganon online. Always a solid fight.
>>267718882
I find my biggest issue was online, the input lag would occasionally turn my upsmash into his nuke kick, which is pretty much a death sentence. Was there something else to his side B I don't get? I was trying to find something to combo into after you drop them post-choke. I didnt know it overrode counters, thats amazing though.

Felt pretty good. Team For Glory can be a crapshoot if you have a shitty teammate or someone with a bad connection, but the good matches are great. In particular, projectile characters wordlessly synchronizing perfectly with rushdown characters is a beautiful sight.
>>267719170
Gannon's upsmash isn't too great anyways, his up air is more reliable. Down Smash is also good for roll spammers. Side b doesn't combo isn't much, but is still important. If you manage a stock lead as Ganon/are on the final stock for your opponent, you can always attempt Ganoncide. Tricky shit.

>>267705073
>Playing the team attack ON for glory
You deserve it for not seeking out some proper team matches.
>>267719453
Yeah I just felt the weird "choke and drop" thing looked odd, like there was a move you're naturally supposed to follow up with. But I like ganon.
What are some other gems people have found character wise? I like ness still, have every since 64, but I can't get into the "fast" tourney characters. Never really been a G&W fan, ROB also just never clicked, and olimar got crushed to near uselessness.

This is not really true. A lot of attack trade with dair and some straight out beat it. Your opponent can also just attack you while you appear from shadowsneak, or simply punish you after shielding the hit.
Still, it's better than being stuck in dair lag forever.

Any tips for getting good with Ganon? He plays a little bit better than how he did in Brawl, but I'm still finding it hard to time his smash attacks just right.
>>267724721
