Heh, nice work on those screens. I agree with your suggestions. For me, Quickplay / Elite Smash are totally unviable. And they're desolate too. Over here, 'Elite Smash = no opponents'. This week, I picked the game up again and gave the battle arenas a try, and had more success at least in...

I feel your pain on that one. You absolutely have to adjust your timings on the DJC PSI Magnet when playing online to compensate for the lag. And then you have to re-adjust them all over again when you go back to playing locally. It's like two games in one! Personally, I found setting my TV...

Yes, pretty much this.... One thing I'd add is that it helps if you configure the R shoulder button to jump. Well, it helped me anyway. This frees your thumb up to race straight to the B button so you execute the magnet as soon as possible after that second directional jump. The quicker you...

Oh, I wouldn't worry about GSP. It's a terrible system and sucks the fun out of the online mode....well, what little fun there is to be had there... I have a friend who is particularly 'precious' about his GSP rating and I see what it does to him. It pushes him to play in an ultra-safe...

Yup indeed, and I appreciate the support for what was quite a downbeat (but honest) post on my part. But yes, in this day and age, if you don't have a good online mode, then you don't have a good game. The online mode *is* the game. I don't know about anybody else here, but I've noticed that...

Well, it's because they are *not* talented developers. Not anymore. They might have been, once, back in the late 90s / early 2000s. But now they just have no vision. They are permanently stuck in a 90s gaming mindset that believes that all you need do for a sequel is just touch up the...

I wouldn't say that I found any characters annoying as such. But, in the urinal of Smash Online, you do find that people tend to choose their character and play them all in the same way. Samus / Dark Samus is the best example I can think of. As soon as you see that she is going to be your...

I'm glad I'm not the only one disappointed (to put it mildly) in the online mode. I just gave it a go - in two hours, I managed to get just two matches that aligned with my preferences (team, time, no items, Omega stages - tho' Battlefield is OK too). It was very laggy too, even more so than...
