New idea: Archive of replays

So, I thought of this idea last night. I had trouble beating Mac, and this one guy here told me a good method is to camp by the ledge. And it worked!

Then I thought, wouldn't it be great if I could easily find out how to beat other characters?

Basically, my idea is this: Have a separate section of this website dedicated to replays. People can submit their replays and they would get stored there. Then anyone can go in, download one, and watch it to try to get an idea of what to do.
I think a grid layout would be easiest.

My example: I was playing ROB. So I could go to the archive, and find the "Little Mac vs ROB" matchups to see all the replays. These should be separated into 2 groups based on whoever won in the replay (obviously I don't want to watch Mac win when Im trying to learn how to beat him) Then I download it, put it back on my sd card, and watch it.


I hope nothing like this exists already, cause I would sound kinda dumb if it did exist :p

Thoughts?

If you look on each character forum or even just this one you'll find the thread for replays and such that are sorted by matchups and characters. ^^

Last time I checked there wasn't a way to share replays. I may be wrong though.

You can't do this. It's not possible to put a replay file on the computer and let someone download it and put it onto their wii u. That was how it worked in Brawl, but it doesn't work like that here.

There are a lot of youtube channels and streams providing great content with sometimes good commentary. These resources are more valuable in my opinion, and that's the sort of community-driven stuff that will likely help most. Check out what's being done on youtube and twitch.

We have tournament streams (ie vgbc), friendlies/for glory streams (ie zero/nairo), and commentary channels (ie my channel CobbsGames). A silent replay video doesn't provide as much informative content as either of the above alternatives.
