    Combo Heavy Characters left out of Wii build?

    Anyone considered that this difference in feel might be an input lag issue? Wii U is HD. HD tv's always have a bit of input lag. As far as I know, the 3DS has none. This could make the 3DS version feel more responsive, thus faster.

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    Hahahaha.. I come back here and it's like I shot someone's dog. Yes, pointing to someone's registration date wasn't a logical way of assessing their actual community involvement/game history, but I didn't intend it as an insult in the first place. I was making a pretty reasonable claim that...

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    You toss around the term "subjective" like it's some kind of debate trump card. You sound like every other forum warrior who took a class in critical thinking. It's alright for some issues to be subjective. You might have even noticed that my first post was expressing MY feelings on the...

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    Hey, it's so much fun slashing out each others paragraphs like giant assholes! I want to play! I stated pretty plainly that this player agency is specific to Smash. It's a quality that people fell in love with it for, and that made it such a compelling competitive fighter. Other "critically...

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    You can talk about dashdancing in such a reductive fashion by saying "cancels lol", but clearly, within the context of my post, I was pointing out that pressing right and left repeatedly on the control stick and watching your character reflect this action was good example of the character agency...

    Wow. Impressive way to dismiss an entire argument without addressing it all. On top of that you restated your simple premise, which my initial post refuted, without even attempting to qualify it. Good form. Internet debating 101.

    but... I did. That was the bulk of the content in my post. Again though, you clearly have not read it, or refuse to comprehend it if you did. I see no point in continuing the conversation

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    I'm genuinely baffled as to how someone could have read even a portion of my post and come to the conclusion that I was talking about cancels. In fact, as early as the second paragraph I explicitly stated that I was talking about fundamental movement, and not advanced tactics (the only way to...

    After the SDCC tournament yesterday... I'm having doubts Smash 4 will be a good competitive game.

    I've been thinking about it, and I think I've discovered what my real problem is with the new direction of the series. This new smash template is simply not as intuitive to control on a fundamental level. There's a direct connection between player and character in both Melee and Smash 64 that is...

    Smash Wii U Wii U version has been sped up from E3

    Bottom line is I'm seeing way more hate towards "melee players" on these boards than I am for Smash 4 in general. Every new thread is littered with a stream of posts ****ting on this entire category of players without ANY provocation. It looks like you got the game you want. Congratulations...

    Smash 4 at EVO?

    There's no way Nintendo lets Melee take a spot in evo over Smash 4 next year. Considering their struggles with the Wii U, they'll want as many eyes on this thing as possible, and evo is a great stage for that. Having said that, after this year, it's up in the air. It's too early to call it, but...

    Smash Wii U So yeah. I'm not impressed by Smash Wii U. What do you think?

    For the love of god.. once again: We don't want Melee. We want a game that doesn't have gimped mechanics to appease casual fans. If you read any of the posts in this thread, you would see that.

    Smash Wii U So yeah. I'm not impressed by Smash Wii U. What do you think?

    Yeah, in regards to the feedback thing... Sakurai gets the only say, and he's implemented these changes intentionally. He knows what they did to the game's mechanics. He did it for a reason. Not so optimistic about this news.

    Smash Wii U So yeah. I'm not impressed by Smash Wii U. What do you think?

    I'm so sick of this blatant misrepresentation of the argument at large. We are not dismissing it because it's not Melee. We're dismissing it because it has ****ty, limiting mechanics. You can't convince me that needlessly, intentionally gimped mobility/options in a competitive fighting game is...
