Stages, Characters, Items, Music, Game Modes, Final Smashes, which one do you dislike the most?

Personally I hate the music updates. Because we're all gonna get sick of the music and play our own music while fighting. I mean at least when we get an item we still get to see some character shots. But that's just me. What do you think?

:( I'd expect from you to place this in the designed place for it, "DOJO Updates".
Again, perhaps the mods can move it for you?

I, personally, am starting to dislike item updates. They pop up too much, and are seeming to get less and less interesting. In my opinion, the only good item updates that came to us so far are the "Assist Trophies" and "Bumper" updates. All the rest seem dull.

You didn't list "How to Play". :p

Surpringly, I'm going to say Game Modes. Yeah, the new story mode is amazing. But we should have gotten this ages ago. It's a standard in almost any fighting game. I don't want to sound like a snob, though.

i get dissappointed with final smashes and special move updates. the specials we already know what they are and the final smashes, who really cares we'll see when we play. personally i'm still waiting for the captain falcon, ness, and ice climber updates[assuming there in because i hope they are].

I like the Music Updates. I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed the Melee soundtrack (especially the orchestral pieces like Fountain of Dreams.), so no, not everybody listens to their own music while playing the game.

How to Play doesn't really interest me, unless it where to introduce something completely new, like the footstool jump.

Assist Trophies.

They are really...well...boring. I don't really care what pops out of the **** orb, I just want to use it. Let me be surprised...

I'm surprised Final Smashes has it's own update category.
Also, can this be moved to Dojo Updates?

My least favourite is either Items or Music.

I like Items (NOT Assist Trophies)! They are fun to see, especially the Cracker Launcher and Smoke Ball!

Jeez.

Also, some of the How To plays are cool (Footstool Jump? Hell Yeah!)

I concur. Songs like "Go K.K. Rider!", "Ocarina of Time Medley" and "Space Armada" are something I can enjoy more than once.

How To Play should be the clear winner, and the title of this thread should include at the end (next to How To Play).
I still think that the people who are following the site, are people who've played the previous games, at least one of them.
Also, Smash is the simplest fighting game in a LONG time, as in button combo's and not competitive play-wise, considering a character only has like 25 moves. Maybe How To Play is useful for Soul Calibur or Mortal Kombat, whose button combo's are ABYXXXYXXABBA^><<<<^>^ABY. and all that in a span of one second.

true, totally true

the only time a "how to play" must be an update, is when is something new, like the footthing jump or the etherthing recovery

I don't like music updates. I mean i love the music in smash, but it's not really something to ANNOUNCE. It's not like your pay attention to it much. Plus, the music isn't gonna sell copies of the game to anyone really. There's nothing like a music update to bring an awesome week to a grinding halt.

The problem with Assist Trophies and PokéBalls is that, well, it's all you get for that update. I think they should either come in multiples, with other content (such as music, characters, stages ect.) or just not come at all. Though the bright side that they deconfirm annoying requests like Deoxys. (with all due respect.)

i hate the updates in this order... how to play, music, items.

the rest are cool and interesting, i wish they just took 1 week and revealed like 5 characters even if they are old characters, or maybe they should release a demo

yeah that would own.

My least favorite type of update is how to play updates, followed closely by item updates.

I looooooove music updates though, that animal crossing song is SOOOOOO ****ING GOOD I LOVE IT.

I personally dislike any update that is noncharacter, nonphysics related (e.g. Footstool Jump)

I rarely use items, I don't remember any of the music in Melee except the DK Rap and the menu music (I just don't pay attention to music), and I really don't care about the 1 player mode(s).

Stages I'm kinda indifferent about. You really can't tell much about how a stage will play until you play it.

Dude, that animal crossing song was epic beyond belief. You cant dislike that update unless you're one cold hearted person :p

heck, even Dylan_Tnga who is rumored to hate every update, LOVED that song XD

I don't play Animal Crossing so I have no sentimental attachment to it. Then again, I am a fairly cold-hearted person.

Dude the song is so epic, I thought it was from megaman or something.

Then again I like powermetal / videogame metal too much so I guess thats why I freaked over the song.

I have no idea what animal crossing is btw. ;)\

EPIC SONG THOUGH! :chuckle:

I'm sorry. Nothing beats the DK Rap! :p

I need to hook my N64 back up and watch the DK64 opening... or maybe I'll just youtube it.
