I believe the name "Kururin" is actually play on the Japanese term for 'spinning' or 'going round and round', which is appropriate, considering gameplay in his series (yes, there are several games) consists of piloting a slow-rotating, single-bladed helicopter through a labyrinth. Since you're always spinning, you have to be careful about where you move and when so you don't smash your blades off by running into walls. Then there are obstacles like trampolines which reverse the direction you're spinning in, moving objects, breakable walls, and later on in the series there are things like boxing gloves on springs to use as weapons.

Same with Mewtwo. Just needed to pick up a high tier character.

Well you could always save Mewtwo for bottom/low-tier matches and tournaments, and Donkey Kong for mid-tier/low-tier tournaments.

Also, you are a sellout, and a woman. Why else would you wear a shirt with a star on it without any sunglasses=???

I wear sunglasses for the right moment. It's when I clear the level and pop out my boombox. :cool:

Ganondorf also is pretty damn awesome in Melee. Could consider using him to. DOES THIS MAKE ME MANLY AGAIN???

Jet Packs are so 1964 Super Bowl I status. Jet Packs are so old. Nowadays the kids rock Jet Jeans. The Jets in the Jet Jeans are behind/under your butt to make it look bigger! :cool:
What are you gonna tell me next, that the Death Star is futuristic technology=??? It's been done, over 5 years ago a few miles away from my house! It is so old school bro! :shades:
*insert the fitting Proto Man theme music here because Proto Man is awesome and needs to be in Smash in some capacity if Mega Man is a playable character my Smash Bros*​

I prefer to power my Jet Powered flight suit with urine and feces, but that's just me. :) :cool: :awesome:
LOL, wrong (not you august, but the video). Stage Hazards, Items, and different ways of measuring health (other than health bars) are in many fighting games. Seriously, are these dorks stuck in the year 1996 or something=??? Kids oughta grow up and enter the present day and age where they aren't the ultimate judge on anything. Last I checked, all of you (including you, planet Earth) are not the center of the Solar System, let alone the universe.

Then the character models appear at the top in 3D when you've selected them.

This bug does not like rollie pollies apparently.

Perhaps they think that speaking negatively of sexist comments are "immoral."

I remember back about 8-12 years ago when the Street Fighter and Capcom vs. fans were saying that 3D fighting games like Tekken and (specifically) Soul Calibur weren't "true" fighting games. Street Fighter and Capcom vs. "hardcore" competitive fans (well, most of them) do this to everything. They want everything to be 1 genre and 1 genre only.

/why every competitive video game movement hates Street Fighter/Final Fight/Capcom vs./Capcom competitive elitists kids. No really, most competitive video game fan bases hates their culture and attitudes. It's like many of them can't grow up, act mature, and whatnot. Granted, the people in the video aren't immature, but they are measuring things based on a 90's viewpoint of fighting games. Hell by their standpoint, Tekken X Street Fighter (when it comes out) might not be a "true" "fighting game."

However (back on point), Smash Bros. isn't only a fighting game. It is also a platform game, an action game, (arguably a shooting game,) and a party game. Seriously, few games are no longer 1 genre anymore. Those days are over, because most of those games/series are either really repetitive, become unoriginal, run out of ideas, or lack the creative vision a lot of newer games have. People always seem to forget that games can be more than 1 genre. Like how Metroid Prime isn't just a first person shooter, but also a first person adventure game (and arguably an action game).

I also love how they referenced tripping as making it "not a fighting game" even though one of the Guilty Gear games had it (for 1 character). Guilty Gear was made by the same people who made BlazeBlue by the way.

And pulling out random items isn't much of a point either. Other fighting games have random elements like that. For instance, moves can have a random chance of something happen. Like smash though, this is nearly or is exclusive to projectiles (in smash the exception is Game and Watches' forward B move "Judgment," which is practically useless anyways).

Also, stages hazards are in nearly every 3D fighting games, as well as fighting games for various anime and manga fighting games. Seriously, nearly all of the Dragon Ball Z and Naruto fighting games have them. Oh, and Power Stone.

Lastly, smash bros being competitive by "accident" and having stuff like wave dashing by "accident" doesn't make it not a fighting game. As the video notes, Street Fighter's combos were in the game by "accident." Lots of great things happen by accident or to fill a void. That doesn't automatically disqualify their effects. Heck, SANDWICHES were invented by "accident." Gravity was discovered by Sir Isaac Newton by "accident."

Edit: The ending was pretty great. They should have mentioned Project M specifically. That mod is INCREDIBLE!!!

I am embarrassed by the Street Fighter (a good portion of the) competitive scene. They give us Smash fans a bad name. I bet once Smash Wii U is on the EVO competitive scene (once the game works on HDTV and whatnot without lag), we're gonna have to go through hell from them.

Oh well. It's not like they're as tough as the New York Giants. :laugh:

Instead, they are probably about as tough as a ping pong player! :chuckle:

Edit: Anyways, I'm out for a while y'all!

About the whole fighting game thing, here's how I think of it.

You're fighting other playable characters, right? Fighting game. That's all there is to it. Jeezum.

I just finished watching it, pretty dumb overall. I can see so many holes in their arguements whether or not I agree with their results it's rediculous.

The ending makes me embarressed as a Smash fan. Are those two people who spoke at the end even a part of the real community?

Tryphen is probably a socialist or something. Wants EVERYONE to be able to ENJOY the game EQUALLY.

Just shut up and do what the backroom tells you to already.

They are. The ending actually pissed me off considering I enjoyed Brawl more.

Naw, it's just pointless topic that I think people overthink.

And technically I AM THE BACKROOM. :smirk:

Lost some brain cells watching it. The ending was very stupid/biased and the people in that video did feel very uneducated on the Smash Bros. scene (or even some "real" fighting games). And why did they include the fact that 64 was rated E. What the hell does that have to do with fighting. Not to mention some fighting games have characters that can generate items in no item games (look at Cody in Street Fighter 4).
