Alright so everyone is starting the melee trend back up again there needs to be a big meeting/tournament/friendlies somewhere preferably in tucson somewhere

also i use a samus against falco it doesnt sound like the best choice but my edge guarding and recovery is excellent maybe someone can show me otherwise?

Hold it!

Try a Dair to Knee or D-Throw to Knee combo for a KO. You will be hooked.

Look at these movies for super play on the characters you like Dooky and Howdy!
I've already watched that first video, it really made me want to main Falcon. But I'll probably be playing Shiek, she was my main back when I played. When I was blissfully unaware of all the crazy technical stuff.

Tee ay eye: I have no idea yet, just due to the fact that I have never played it. I love watching Isai play C. Falcon, Forward makes me want to play Falco, Ken makes me want to play Marth, and Taj makes me want to play Mewtwo. I will try everyone out to see how it is but I think I will start with C. Falcon. EPIC KNEES!

Kosuke: Sweet! Once I get the game I will make a shout out on here and see if anyone wants to play on a random night.

Howdy: Fun fun! I haven't been Smashing at ALL lately. This will be a fun excuse to get into something new. :)

But yeah, I will try Falcon out, then Falco, and then learn everyone from there on out.

:) I hope Melee is fun!

This video's pretty good too..

It helps that you know two of the people in it as well. Tony's Marth is good too.

But um... if anyone lives in an area that can be easily reached by bus or is willing to pick me up from AZ Mills or Camelback & Central Ave (where my parents work) then I can smash with you on Saturday.

p.s. Dook, are you going to coreygames' tourney?

Oh so I only have 16 days to be the best Falcon in the world in Melee? I am screeeeewed!

I think I will show up to the tournament at Corey's, that is, unless, I die, or an emergency shows up.

Hey, Tai...

Mind if I borrow your Gamebridge since I kinda did lend you my cable? I mean, I don't really see you using it much. Next time I see you, if you would. Thanks.

I'll go to the tourney, give you guys some free money. Hopefully get some friendlies in.

Dook, we should play teams. I'll put up the $10 if we practice in the next couple weeks. I have no GC, or Wii, or Melee disk. But I do have a controller.

No way Howdy, me and dook are together for life.

If you do team with him, at least use my name tag.

WHO WANTS TO PLAY MELEE WITH ME ON SATURDAY?

ANYONE WHO LIVES NEAR ARIZONA MILLS OR CENTRAL + CAMELBACK.

If you can pick me up, or if you are in easy bus range from one of those places, please contact me if you want to play Melee tomorrow.

p.s.

Kosuke, I don't use my Gamebridge much because my laptop doesn't work with my Gamebridge (it has XP, I think my laptop has a defective piece of hardware somewhere in it)

Also, the re-recording process of VCR recording things is VEEEERY tedious.

*points finger*

...

(...?! I'm drawing a blank...! ... ...Ah, I guess I could say this...) ._.;

Tai...Isn't it possible to record things without the VCR? You told me without one, it only makes the screen dark. I would be fine without all the messy recording. I only want to borrow it for a little while.

(Aha! I know!)

Tai, why not come Saturday to my Mom's house? I'll be there.

Yes, that may be a good idea.

I'll see YOU on the Internet.

Btw, I have an early release day next Wednesday (NEXT Wednesday, the 17th)

Does anyone want to get some pre-tourney practice with me that day?

Or do any aspiring Melee players want to get taken under my wing and be severely beaten with anthropomorphic animals or a sexually ambiguous prince and ninja until they are at least competent at this game?

I don't think I'll become competent in a day, but I may take you up on this if you don't find someone good to practice with. I played Melee for the first time in years yesterday, I'm totally worthless at all the technical stuff. And just mostly worthless at the rest. But I beat my brother and step-brother, so that means I'm tourney-awesome right? I need to buy a GC, like today, and start practicing.

Getting ***** by you Tai would probably be very helpful to me. Plus my parents can't assume you are a rapist and I can go over without question. :) JUST TEACH ME TO SUCK LESS ADLKFJSADO:F
