Remember, Nintendo is trying to keep most of the multiplayer gaming at home. The only console maker trying to keep gamers together instead of in the basement alone.

@ Whispy Whispy question
Why did you pick up Jigglypuff
I thought I was the only person who used Jigglypuff half seriously here
He was one of the characters i had pre patched actually lol. you can ask fliphop, i even used it against him one time at a smash united tournament. he bodied it though so i wasnt to happy about my jiggs. i saw him more as a "for fun character". At the insomnia tournament when i was facing karna, i was debating since the beginning to either go Rob/Mario/Jigglypuff on him, and of course, it took me until game 3 to finally commit to it. i have some various funny setups that people occasionally fall into but ill try to find smarter ways though. xD i will actually put more effort into it and watch my matches with jiggs now since alot of people messaged me and apparently want to see more of my JigglyPuff.
@ Whispy Whispy Considering we fought twice in the same weekend, I now have a goal to beat you. I think it's doable for me now, so give me about 5 years to git gud then I'll win.
I saw alot of things you could of easily done to beat me lol. you have a really strong DK. theres alot of setups where you can shield break 70% of the times haha. i might MM DK ditto you in the future so be ready O:

I thought Splatoon didn't have split screen though, its only 1 vs 1 local multiplayer. One player on the gamepad and another on the TV.

Seeing as you can only do more than 2 player online, I would say this statement doesn't apply to Splatoon.

Yea, when you force integration of a controller we can only use one of, online multiplayer is all there is going to be.

1 game doesn't counter any argument whatsoever. Look at Nintendo's history,

Shoutout to Whispy for doing work recently. Good **** boy.

Is there a cutoff date to register for Texas Showdown? Or can we pay at venue? Comic Palooza happens to be the same weekend as my wedding so def not going to that.

Rockets vs. Clippers tonight yoooo. This gonna be a fun series. Curry had a well-deserved MVP but mad cause Harden was right up there with him. He about to pull an Olajuwon vs. Robinson though. Robinson got MVP and Hakeem DESTROYED him. I love playoffs.

Although if that's a serious question for one of your bigger tourneys, probably not a good idea IMO. Onion level kids would be forever tainted.

EDIT: I'd probably go though

$60 if you get there Friday, $70 on Saturday. Not sure if that applies to Smash tho. Didn't they set up special rates for the ppl just playing Smash?

Due to Avengers 2, a shirt producing company is enjoying a 10,000% increase in sales www.businessinsider.com/avengers-age-of-ultron-bruce-lee-djing-shirt-sales-2015-5

Avengers 1 had the same result in the shwarma industry www.esquire.com/food-drink/food/a13972/avengers-boosts-shawarma-sales-8707403/

I used to live across the street from Shawarma King near Richmond and Hillcroft. Avengers convinced me to try it. That **** is so good

Best of luck. My buddy Andrew (Andjita) is in Gnes's pool. What team do you guys play? I used to play Zero/Dormammu/Vergil back in the day

I play spencer dr.doom and shuma

And nova spencer strange (team nemo)

Gnes plays 'insert point' Dante doom

He also has a solid dorm that he can throw in the mix


Edit: now that I think about it he plays half the cast I honestly don't know who he will use. Me on the other hand is too much of a character loyalist

I'm heavily considering it since I don't have any other plans Saturday. As much as I would like to go to WINGS again, I don't think much of/or any of houston is going to that this weekend.
