SSB: Brawl discussion (now that it's out)

**TrakMastaTom** · 03-09-2008, 03:45 AM

I went to the midnight launch at Gamestop here, and got Brawl. I then hauled a TV to my friends house and sat in his basement with a collective of 6 dudes while we played the crap out of the game. It is not 4:43 since the time changed at 2, and I am sitting here typing. Jesus, Brawl is the coolest thing ever.

My favorite new character so far is probably the Pokemon trainer. It's basically 3 characters in one. One that is slow and powerful, one fast and not as powerful, and a happy medium also. Crazy. Awesome. Words can not express my love for this game already.

I gotta get some sleep so I can play it again in the morning.

Who else has it and has played it? What do you think?

**Dudebro** · 03-09-2008, 04:36 AM

I was waiting to see if people liked it before I get it, is it really that good?
How's the Wii controller for Brawl?

I suppose I'll buy it either way I just wanna be sure.

**Hobbes** · 03-09-2008, 02:43 PM

So many items, moves, characters, things to do, not sure if i'll be able to figure it all out.
Trak will own me...

Oh and Trak I'll pm you my Wii code later.

Amazing. I use the Gamecube controller though, not the Wii remote.

You can get a USB thing that just plugs into your computer and will let your Wii connect to the internet for like 30 bucks, if you want.

Or you could just spend 40 and get a router.

Or you could continue to not have wireless.

Yeah the different ways of controlling the game are cool.
1. Remote with nunchuck
2. Remote w/o nunchuck
3. Classic controller
4. GC controller.

**TrakMastaTom** · 03-10-2008, 02:15 PM

Yeah, I have used nothing but the Cube controller. I suppose I should try the remote+chuck at least opnce to see how it is.

Dude, I wish. I wouldn't have if I could have gotten away with it.

Whatever, I beat the subspace embassy mode and unlocked:

Probably not a spoiler:

( Click to show/hide )

And then beat classic mode once with Link to unlock:

( Click to show/hide )

But he didn't unlock for some reason even though I beat him.

Anyway, today was a good day. Tommorow I unleash my wrath upon punks online.

**powerfullove** · 03-10-2008, 10:59 PM

...

Absolutely AWESOME

Sonic's mine, no touchy! Awesome game, not describable with words. I love the part in Subspace Embassy where Sheik and Fox are about to go at it, then Peach stops them and offers them both tea, classic...

**Hobbes** · 03-11-2008, 08:26 AM

Tried online play, but no one was online.

So can you have 2 or 3 people on your machine and then go online to find a 4th?

Trak we should team up online and own some people.

I have unlocked 2 people, Luigi, and Marth

I tried online play with a friend 1 time. It was laggy. He remembered later that he was downloading several things, which is probably why.

I have been wondering about more than 1 person on a machine myself.

We should team up. I sent you my number and registered you.

If anyone else has this game, post your number. Mine is 4124-4689-6067

**Stupid Flanders** · 03-11-2008, 02:37 PM

So many new things (Smash Ball= Insanity)!!!

**TNTisKING** · 03-11-2008, 03:47 PM

This game is just amazing! I can't play online right now but when I hook it up this weekend I'll post my code.

**Tails** · 03-11-2008, 03:54 PM

you guys make me want this more..

**Hobbes** · 03-12-2008, 10:26 PM

pm sent.

When will you be online.[br]Posted on: March 11, 2008, 06:46:24 PM_________________________________________________S o I played online for over an hour tonight. Held my own... I must say that it's going to take a while to learn all the moves, and then the counter moves of all the characters.

I played team brawl mostly, seemed that I could get 4 players that way. Kinda sucks that you don't know if you are playing the same people all the time...

My connection was great online a slow down or two.

Trak I saw that you and I are friends now, we must team up and battle all takers!

**TNTisKING** · 03-21-2008, 03:47 PM

I just got my wii hooked up to the internet, my code is 4682-8240-4068[br]Posted on: March 15, 2008, 09:32:14 PM_________________________________________________W henever I choose "with anyone" mode online, it can never find anyone for me to play. My connection is fine. Does anyone know why this is?

The online is kinda screwed up.
Keep trying, it may work after a while.

**TNTisKING** · 03-21-2008, 09:28 PM

Ok, I'm glad it's not just me, thanks.

**HeroofTime** · 03-22-2008, 09:40 AM

i just ordered Brawl yesterday woppee

**gamemaster77** · 04-05-2008, 11:08 AM

Anyone able to beat any solo mode on intense? i got close on classic, but i died cuz i wasn't paying attention to where i should side+B onto the edge. and anyone get 100% subspace?

My Character List (from best to fifth):
1st=Ike
2nd=Fox
3rd=Pit
4th=Lucario
5th=Marth

and once every few times, i use Toon Link

**HeroofTime** · 04-05-2008, 11:40 AM

What sucks is that whenever I'm on wi-fi no one else is on and when I choose "With anyone" it takes FOREVER to find some people dumb enough to Brawl with me.
