I'm gonna try out each character at least once, so I might as well try out their Final Smash while I'm at it, if I get the chance.

Also, I don't main Pikachu, but I have the most gargantuan urge to Volt Tackle somebody.

First, I will only turn on the item, Final Smash, and turn off the other items, then go try out each character from top left and work myself down while seeing their Final Smash the same time. That's my plan. xP

sorry, but any move that looks like it could instantly kill you is better than one that leads up to a kill.

don't get me wrong, advanced techniques do help someone win a fight. they're good, I use... some of them... (my WD skills have slightly increased over the last 3 weeks)
final smashes only do it faster.

EDIT: crap, forgot my veiw on 'em.

I'm going to play every character, to (A) get the feel of them, and (B) see their moves, FS included.

I wanna see them all myself and how they work so I know what the character is capable of so I know what to do if they somehow grab the Final Smash from me ><

Like.. if Mario gets it (If it works this way) get behind it etc.

Yes. Grabbing an item and then putting your controller down and picking up a soda while volt tackle kills everyone on the screen is far more demanding skill wise than shffling two uairs with captain falcon into a perfectly sweetspotted knee off the stage.

Oh, also, final smashes are items, so they won't be involved in actual brawl playing anyway. Yes, in casual play vs your friends the final smash will be more useful than spending actual effort killing people but the same has always been true in the case of the hammer and pokeball of doom.

Also, you can only use a final smash once per match, as compared to you can actually fight with your character as much as you want.

GG final smash.

So I guess you're just gonna pick up and play competively on day one? lol
I'm not buying a wii because I'm anti next gen console. I dont like the wii, I dont like the ps3, and I dont like the xbox, or the 360.

So if I do play brawl itll be at my friends house where I play melee ( I dont own a cube either, though I wish I did because I love the system)

He'll buy the wii and brawl probably a few months later than everyone else after we find out what the games like off the internet.

If the game sucks, we'll just avoid buying brawl altogether, if its good then we'll play it twice a week at his house like we do with melee taking breaks obviously to play melee. And we'll find some way around playing single player to unlock things because thats a giant waste of time.

And the first thing I'll do in brawl, and the only thing, is turn off the friggin' items and play the game the way I like to play it. Which also happens to be the way the game is played currently at tournaments.

Im not telling you what to do, like I always put as a warning in my posts because they're heavily opinionated.

Understood? I don't give a rats *** what the rest of you do and im not gonna bash you for it. I expect the same in return because im tired of being flamed by the same group of people all the time for my views.

Volt Tackle is controlled manually, so you'll have to use your big toe to move the analog stick around

enjoy your soda lol

Why not just make smashbrothers into an RPG eh?

I totally agree.

Though I will never get involved with the tourney scene for SSB, I think that Final Smashes - at least - look so broken, that it's going to change the game dynamic in casual games (not competitive because it's an item) to another game breaking item that everyone wants to use and reduce SSB to a game of who can get to the Final Smash ball first. It detracts from playing the game.

I saw the video of Pikachu's volt tackle, and though I don't think there were any damage percentages that were viewable, the instant kill looks like too much overkill to put into the game.

Of course, I haven't played on Brawl, so the long lasting effects of the Final Smash haven't been set in stone yet.

Whatever, it's 3:31am now, I'm going to sleep.

somehow you reminded me of super mario hoops, and this comic came to mind. But seriously though, why is a ninja playing basketball.

and I suppose I won't go out of my way to see any of them unless the character really intrigues me.

I'm going to look at www.smashbros.com
Win. Same as what I'll be doing, as I won't really be using the final smash much in my game. In fact, for a good part of the year it will always be off, I might only see them when I am *forced* to play through the 1P mode trying to unlock characters... However that would be a good way to get accustomed to the engine, with fights online using tournaments rules inbetween.

Also, Dylan, shame you don't possess a Wii. Of course, right now the Wii is not worth the cash, but maybe after a year it will be worth it.

i think i'll just turn only this item on and play with every char.

that said, does anything there is a chance that you have to unlock any items this time around? i think that be a good idea for an item like this.
