Also, Captain Falcon doesn't have a middle name. Only the middle initial "J".

Yes. Capcom actually took suggestions from pros on balancing out Super Turbo for the upcoming HD Remix, and took painstaking efforts to boost up other characters without completely nerfing the top tiers.

No way. Marth is still good. Falcon is by far most nerfed.

People are calling Sakurai a bad game designer because he promotes fun and apparently tries to kill tournament-style play. Why would you do that? Why would you, seemingly, intentionally alienate an entire fanbase segment? If Sakurai's idea is to promote fun, then he FAILED. He failed...

This is terrible reasoning. The argument is that at the beginning of Melee, the community was like 30 people, and there really wasn't the kind of tournament style play that we have now. Brawl has thousands of players and multiple tournaments already.

LOL. YHBT by Jafar. HAND.

Jafar, if you're going to use games like Street Fighter to justify your argument, then YOU ARE A FOOL. To say that because something wasn't originally intended by developers and therefore it shouldn't be used is just plain stupid. I'm going to apply your exact argument to street fighter...

To this very day there is a raging argument about parrying in SF3. Now, I will admit, it makes some cool things possible, like parrying super arts, BUT, it has entirely destroyed the long range game because any player that is not an absolute turd can parry every fireball in the game. It has...

Wtf? The purpose of naming techniques isn't so you can think about the name in the heat of battle, it's so information can quickly and accurately be passed on within the community. It was easier to say "crouch cancel" than say "hold down on the control stick so that when a move hits you, you...

I don't understand this reasoning. The thing that separates casual players and higher level players is that higher level players care enough to take the time to LEARN and become proficient at those kinds of techniques, not the existence of them. I think balancing characters abilities should...

I'll marth ditto you if you need more footage. Oh, wait, no. You want footage of you combo'ing other people. Nevermind....

Wow, good call, Large One. I want to be reimbursed for the part of my life I spent on this video.

How is that gay? He didn't talk down to the guy, and there's nothing wrong with some rivalry between countries. Glad I could make this one. Won't miss anymore for the world. And someone remind me to break one of Shiz's thumbs after South plays East next year.

I agree. Besides, there's too many people I wanna play to stay on one set for an hour.

I really wish you would stop saying this. Especially when I walk past.
