[Chukwaffles]

[Atticus_22]

We gotta get the Apex crew together soon. Let me know what you guys think.

 

[Hatch Backward]

[Perfect Chaos]

Did someone change their SmashBoards name to @negativeX, since I don't remember having anyone being the anti-Chris before?

 

[Tsuteto]

[wangston]

Results thread.

1st. Fox Guy He 3 or 4 stocked everyone and didn't drop a game as fox.
2nd Pika player Beat everyone but Fox
3rd Me. I could have done it if I were able to go dreamland and against the pika player, Hyrule is to big too get rest kills on.

Shout out to the few guys coming all the way up from St George for this.

Also RVKYS sorry about the 4 stock lol I was pissed about losing to the pika player.

I would be down if you tried it out and saw how many people would be interested. I've always been curious how I stack up against all the other Utah peeps but I was unable to make it to provo

Also RVKYS so about the 4 stock lol I was pissed about losing to the pika player.

do these players not have names? did they come in all falcomaster3000-like?

 

[941]

These old 64 players were actually able to get the tags "Fox Guy", and "Pika Player" back in the late 90's.

 

[SoapSuds]

I really hope that we get a serious 64 tournament. I didn't end up going to this one because of the ban on gc controllers (which is really dumb, all the best players use 64 controllers anyway) and the ruleset wasn't very good at all. Plz Tim.

64 is soooo good for working on sdi

 

[Blues17]

Super wanted to go to that 64 tourney but my work schedule changed on me yesterday. Oh well. Happy birthday to me.

 

[RVKYS]

Lol yeah it was still a lot of fun but the rule set was pree lame. I wanna play you in the future wangston, my fraudulent yoshi got exposed hard.

 

[Shane M]

I'm bringing in my 3ds again tonight at 801 labs if you need and/or want your Wii u to have EVO set customs.

N64 controllers is a pretty smart idea, everyone should use similar equipment. I can't say that I agree with Hyrule Temple being the best stage though.

How is a smart idea to ban the GC controller adapter? n64 controllers are extremely harder to get and even hard to keep from wearing out. banning the GC adapters is just going to keep most people from playing and none of the real 64 tournaments do it.

That's so scrubby dude. You can use anything you want for 64 by the Apex ruleset; keyboard, xbox, n64 or an adapter so long as it doesn't cheat and enter inputs for you or turbo it's g2g. Forcing people to use a 64 stick just makes the barrier to entry higher for no reason besides the idea that everyone should use the same or a "similar" controller. How is the GC controller not similar, and if it isn't what is? Why should we all have to use the same controller? What does that even mean when you think about it in terms of the other smash games? Should our sticks have regulartions on how tight or loose they can be less someone's controller be better at shield dropping? Should smash4 be pro controller only? Should we ban me for having the spring taken out of my shoulder button? No esport forces you to use the same equipment as everyone else. Smash64 is just special because people get extra salty about you using a good controller while they are using their are using their old, mario partyd sticks that can't dash or pivot or fsmash. It shouldn't even be an issue as, like I said at the beginning, every big tournament for 64 has very liberal policies regarding control.

>Mango and Leffen playing a couple hours of friendlies on Mango's stream
>Armada and M2K playing a couple hours of friendlies on M2K's stream

Is this real life

Obviously I struck a really weird nerve and that's super weird. First off, calling me scrubby is a great way to start that off man, nice job, really friendly attitude. Where did that rant even come from? I was just suggesting some normalization to a hypothetical tournament. Also, if you can't answer why a gamecube controller isn't similar to an N64 one, you should probably try looking at them side by side http://lmgtfy.com/?q=gamecube+and+n64+controller.

Anyway, I would be super psyched for a 64 tournament, it would be fun to see how everyone stacks up.

This was the first result to that search. @ SoapSuds wins. GG

Almost like they're not the same controller

 

[nqztv]

settle it in smash, boys ;-). btw, is anyone hosting a smash fest to watch sandstorm?

 

[Pyr]

Does the gamecube controller give any noticeable advantage? If not, they should be allowed if it doesn't cost tournament time. Not allowing a GC controller for any other reason than noticeable advantage is like telling Vangief to **** off for his controller choice. Input method has never mattered more than performance.

ATTENTION

I have DMW (from Idaho) staying at my place for the weekend. If anyone wants to swing up and get rekt, PM me for the address and we'll figure out a time.

i play smash 64 with a PS1 controller and no analog sticks like a true evo champion

Side tourney at Neumont: Smash with DDR pads

 

[Perfect Chaos]

You physically have to wavedash in real life to wavedash in game!

EDIT: Can't wait to see @Jekyll play!

 

[wangston]

As a jiggs main I would agree it's grabage. Basically the whole tourney was a counterpick against me. My jiggs relies on gimps and rest. On Hyrule people would just camp the EDIT right side and run around the little hut thing so I could do neither of those. At dream land there is no where to hid from this jiggs .

EDIT
PC YOU ARE RIGHT!

 

[MrJeff]

Didn't you say you won last year? Maybe the rules were set up specifically to play against your gimps.

Why are people johning hard about controllers? You're entire justification is that the equipment should be similar. That makes no sense whatsoever. What matters is using equipment that you're comfortable with. If you've been practicing on an n64 controller, then there should be no excuses. If you lose you should just get better. I'll still shatter @ SoapSuds and @Rockmix target test records with a n64 controller (MM me in target test lololol).

All you're doing is limiting other players who are more comfortable with other controllers. You're not forced to use any controllers for PM, Brawl, or 64 in big tournaments. Furthermore people already alter their gc controllers to their liking (removing L and R button springs etc.). Should that be banned?

I'm not sure if you're really thinking this through man.

dansdaman was the first casualty of axe on the melee stream :-p.

 

[net1234]

is anyone hosting a sandstorm watching fest today?

 

[Perfect Chaos]

On Hyrule people would just camp the left side and run around the little hut thing

The hut thing is on the right, though.

 

[Tsuteto]

when is neumonts?

Next weekend

 

[Razgrizmerc]

I should be able to make PM at neumont

 

[Meleeruler]

DMW is pretty okay I guess. I mean, is purposely powershielding all of my moves really that cool? I don't think so.

 

[DrPhantasma]

when is neumonts?
