Alternative To Super Attacks

Hi, this is my first time posting so please spare the hate.

After checking out info about SSBB, I learned about new "super attacks." I disliked the concept and I talked about it with my friend and he also disliked it. So I came out with the idea that, instead of getting an uber attack (that you supposedly can't avoid), you would go into a sort of "super mode." Kinda like the game Power Stone, characters would temporarily gain a set of new powers and have beefed stats. This would take out the unavoidable factor in super attacks.

For example, Link would turn wolf, Mario would turn into a being solely made of flame, Jigglypuff would evolve into Wigglytuff with bigger sing sleep radius, Bowser would turn Giga and his B attack spews out blue flame instead of red, Samus gets her Phazon suit with Phazon beams, etc.

What do you think of this idea?

I don't really like it. It's better than the Supers, but I'd rather have increased damage than some of those. Wolf Link would be better as a separate power.

It's not bad, I like it but some of the transformation idea's are pushed too far (mario turns into a fire being? WTF?).

I love how every brawl idea thread is friggin ********. EVERY one.

Here's an idea : Dont ****ing change anything from melee aside from characters movesets, weight, traction, ammount of characters, and stages. But leave in everything the worked in melee.

Super attacks are caused by an item (as far as we know) so therefore I'm never going to see one because playing with items is for idiots.

LOL, it is not for idiots, it is just to have some more fun than normally you have, and even, for realeasing the "TENSION" on the matches, because playing with items really helps fun-the-match-up xD.

Oh, about the "Super Powers", naaah, i still like the thing about the item, but i will love to have another B Attack, like, B Backwards xD... soooh.. yeah xD

I dont see where the fun is, really in added randomisation into such a well made fighting game and making it unfair. Like Id probably be really pissed if I just 0-death pillar to combo to death pwnd someone with falco, then they come back with a hammer and beat me up by walking at me. lame.

Super attacks are dumb. Really, really... really... REALLLLLY dumb. Thank god they weren't stupid enough to make them part of the characters movesets or this game would be ruined.

cool idea but since they already showed what the super item does, i doubt they'll change it.

Tsk, Dylan, be nice.
There is nothing really stupid about this idea, except that it, well, won't happen.
One, they already seem to have built in the Super Smashes. Two, it would be FAR too much work to give all characters ANOTHER model just for a super-mode.
And as long as they are just items, Super Smashes are cool. I mean, they would just mean that every character has a certain "item" only they can use. Imagine it as some sort of random box that gives each character a personalized weapon that they can use once. It's an item, so it doesn't matter in the big picture. It just means that everyone who plays for fun using items might get a chance to look really badass.

Item matches are fun if it isn't a serious match.

But super smash is definitely cheap and I it will be annoying wasting my time during a match watching Kirby cook link for 5 seconds.

I once saw someone get nine heart containers in a four stock match with all items on normal. Since it was a fun match, it didn't matter, but that would have sucked in a tourney.
The funny thing was he still lost :chuckle:

Wouldnt happen in a tourney, items being off is a rule. There USED to be items in tourneys but I think the general consensus these days is to leave them OFF.

Bah Im not gonna judge any of you, but for me if theres items on I dont even want to play ill smoke a cigarette or make a sandwitch or something until they start playing serious or not.

You keep using ''fun'' as your argument, but realize that for me playing without items is fun and playing with them annoys me and I dont have fun. I love smash bros lol, I dont take it so seriously that i dont enjoy myself! I just always wanna get better which is what keeps me comin back for more, allll the time. IM an addict... :psycho:

I know they're off in tourneys. I was actually saying that it was cheap that he got 9 heart containers in one match. I only use items whin I'm trying to beat records in one player mode. For some reason it seems like whenever my friend who got nine heart containers plays, luck is on his side, but that happened 3 years ago and he is better now.
