Hello guys!

I have installed PM 3.6 and it runs correctly. But the controls feels really wierd.

It feels that my command will get out after one half of a second after i press the button.

For example in ssb4 i do short fair when i slide my thumb from Y to the A button on the gcn controller and holding the analog stick forward. I have really get used to it. I'm shieking without a problem ;P. In PM when i do this the char only short hops forward and attacks only after the second time i press the A button. The wierdest thing in this problem is, when i'm in the controller setting test mode you can see on the upper right the commands you press and it register short hop fair flawlessy and so fast like i will press the buttons. It shows "Y Jump" and then "A Attack" in the speed i press the buttons. Only the attack won't come out that fast. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? Or is this the famous input lag of the HDTVs?

Smash4 has a 10 Frame buffer. PM does not.

This means, if you input an action before your character is able to do that action, nothing will happen. You need to time your attack correctly.

I've been having trouble adjusting back to PM after playing Smash 4 mainly since around the start of the year. I had no idea the buffer was 10 frames in 4 though--that's ridiculous. No wonder defensive play sometimes feels like a fast downward spiral.

WOW! For real?

Also everything is normal on my setup? Had Brawl the same 10 Frame buffer limit? And perhaps i'm ignorant, but what is the contra of having this 10 Frame buffer? Isn't it alot easier to play like this?

Is it technical possible to make 3 options like 0 Frame Buffer, 3 Frame and Brawls/Smash4s Frame Buffer for beginners?
