Hi! I'm (sorta) new here!

[SideSmash13]

I joined SmashBoards in January of 2015, but I hardly posted until now. So good, now a proper introduction for myself!

I'm SideSmash13. You can call me Fred. I'm a 13 year old gamer and I love nintendo. I'm a complete newcomer to the Smash series though - My first smash game was SSB for the Wii U & 3DS (I have both). Until then, I had never laid a finger on a Smash game before. I'm using the guide from a moderator post below. So, I am pretty bad at Smash. I don't know any of your Smash jargon/terminology, I don't know any techniques, combos, or many other things for that matter. All I know how to do is do the absolute basics. Move, Smash Attack, Special attack, recovery, shield, and grab. I don't know anything else. Most of the time I end up buttonmashing in a panic because I'm having my ass handed to me by a level 3 CPU. Some help or tutorials would be appreciated... Could any of you direct me to a thread for newcomers like me?

• Who do you main in your Smash game(s) of choice? Why? I main Ness. I don't know why, I just like him. I've never tried any other character, so that's why I always pick Ness.
• Why have you joined Smashboards? How did you hear about the site? Because I'm a complete noob at Smash, someone on Miiverse told me to go here to get help.
• Do you attend tournaments? Do you want to? No, I don't attend tournaments. I do not want to, because I know for a FACT that I'll have my ass kicked in a few minutes.
• Talk about your interests outside of Smash Bros.! Anime, sports, other games, etc. I like Dragon Ball Z, I like to ski, I'm a PRO at Mario Kart 8 (challenge me bro), and I love anything that has to do with nintendo.
• What other communities are you a part of? Clubs at school, other forums? I have a MkBoards Account, RCGroups account, and I have a YouTube account.

Well, hopefully I can get help and I can get good!

See ya!

Uhh, people have told me that trying to get better and train on Smash 4 isn't that effective because of the physics or some crap like that... They've told me to train on this "Project M" thing or Super Smash Melee for the GC or the original N64 version. What's your opinion?

I never got into Project M. I left Melee in the past.

My opinion? Just play whatever makes you happy. If you want to do both, then do both. Although, if you want to master one, you're probably better with one or the other as your focus until you get to a place you are happy with skill wise. I always stay current, so I just stick with what is new. Right now Sm4sh is the newest so that is what I will play.

Welcome to the boards!
Just play whichever game you find the most fun. Lots of people have different opinions about which game is better, but you should just try them for yourself and see which you prefer.

Welcome to Smashboards! I'm really bad at advising things, so I'll just echo what the moderators have posted. Play the one game you enjoy the most.

If you're interested in gaining skill in Smash 4, I would definitely recommend looking at ZeRo's YouTube channel.

Also watching other players such as Nairo and Mew2King might help you develop good habits.

(Since I first learned how to combo from watching combo videos and matches about 5 years ago.)
