Can you please provide a link, or citation, to the podcast where ESAM "tried to convince people to play Smash 4 over Melee"? I want to see it for myself.

Too bad PM is in a legal grey-area. Yes, mods are legal, and PM is a very good one. However, monetizing mod content, or otherwise making a profit off of a mod, IS illegal unless approved of by the owner of the original property. That said, Nintendo, with its recent involvement and sponsorship...

How...unique. Take my words and change little parts of it (i.e. twisting my words) to fit your purposes. *coughplagiarismcough* Besides, DotA is a bit of an exception, since out came first, practically created the MOBA genre, and was made into an official, original release with the sequel...

As good of a mod as Project M is, it's just that: a mod. The fans' opinions don't matter. It's forever going to be restricted by the fact that it's not official. It can never rise to the level of national, and international, fighting games. Period. So, unfortunately, time put into Project M is...

The FGC didn't take Melee seriously, over the 14 years of its existence and plenty of time on main stage. What makes you think that Melee getting main stage this year will change anything? In my observations, Sm4sh shares more sensibilities with FGC games. The neutral game, footsies...

I believe that, with the release of Smash Wii U this website should combine the character usage rankings, and maybe even the player rankings, should be reset and combined into one. After all, both are officially, and essentially, the same game.

This is a great article. The writer objectively analyzes Sm4sh and points out the stupid things that can, and will, happen on both sides of the inevitable division between Sm4sh and Melee players. Let's learn from the past, so that we don't make the absurdity of history repeat itself...

It's nice to hear someone who views Smash as Smash, not separate series. If only more people would think the same way, instead of blaming Brawl, Sakurai, "filthy casuals", whatever stupid scapegoats they use as excuses for being immature, childish, selfish, whiny, and hateful.

@Cubelarooso: Hence why PM actually IS more of a mod than Brawl is. That's obvious though, since PM is literally a mod of Brawl. Making it more of a mod than Br...anyone capable of basic reasoning should get the point. Not trying to be condescending or anything, but it's just that obvious. "And...

To start, ease up. I never said PM is bad. In fact, more than a few times, i said that it's impressive and fun. But from a logistical POV, which is necessary forv organizers of events like APEX and EVO, that's all irrelevant. While you are absolutely right regarding products, I believe there's...

No, apparently. I've already been through that conversation. I wish it could be that way, though. Too many people treat each Smash game as practically separate entities "that just happen to be under the same moniker". This mentality leads to the defensiveness over Melee and the...

While you are right in many aspects, other aspects are more opinion and interpretation rather than fact. I agree that some entertainment can be clearly bad, but if there is room for debate then it becomes complicated. Videogames are always debatable and subjective. What's bad for one can be...

Why return your Wii U? PM is a completely different game from Sm4sh. Plus, Sm4sh is HD and has real online play. Not to mention, official tourneys with legit prizes, coverage, and stuff. Why not keep the Wii U and enjoy both the old (so to speak) and the new?
