I don't know about that.

Maybe for the first 8 matches but I've had enough brawl minus for a lifetime.

I legitimately think I like Brawl more than Brawl Minus. Then again, I've never been hit with an infinite in brawl yet.
I have in tournament worst feeling in the world but then again I play Falco and my worst MU were against characters will CG and infinites.

EDIT: The most fun games to watch are usually also the most busted look at UMVC3.

The Adventure of Link can EAD for the very reason that if you get a Game Over (save for the Great Palace), you start all the way back at Hyrule Temple.

Every. Damn. Time.

So if you made a sh*tload of progress through the overworld and were just about to complete a palace but got a game over, you go ALL THE WAY BACK to Hyrule Temple. Then you'll arduously and gruelingly make your journey all the way back to the palace you died and hope you make it this time.

If you get a Game Over in a dungeon on the original Legend of Zelda, you start at the beginning of the dungeon. The way Zelda II handles death is way too punishing even for the time period.

This makes me hyped for 1/2 stock smash 4, but not hyped enough to raise my expectations for that game. I'm still bracing for that game being kusoge.... and will still play it anyway.

But UMvC3 is not fun to watch at all
I'll actually agree with this.
For me personally, there's just too much going on. To an untrained eye it looks like there are 10 seconds of neutral game and 2 minutes of one player blowing up unless they drop inputs.
Obviously this is an over exaggeration on my part (though sometimes it holds true), but I'm not a fan of watching MvC.
Tickle me pink for SFIV though as somebody who doesn't play it.
I play Injustice, so I also enjoy watching that a lot.
Anime fighters... not for me.

I have no doubts in my mind that Smash 4 will be good.

I have doubts that it will be better than project M though. But it will probably be more fun.

How can one think a game can be more fun than Project M? :O
Because they have experienced Project M: Drinking Game Edition
Take a swig each stock you lose, lose a match take a long drink, get four stocked finish your drink.
My friends and I have more rules than that by now, but that's what we started with the first time we did it.

We usually do FFA, 1 swig per stock you take/lose (So 1 kill means both drink), 1st and 4th take a shot.

FFA makes it pretty hectic, you can also take advantage of the time someone spends drinking to just push them off the ledge.

Every game is kusoge except for VF5FS, KOF13 and GGAC+R Kappa

I like Marvel =(

Anyway, I have a question for you guys. Has Sakurai played Project M? Has he commented on it? I'm interested in knowing what he feels / would feel about it, since I feel as though the game is very impressive and I'd like to think it would make Sakurai happy.

No one knows.

I have a feeling he is aware of it's existence though.

I'm one of those people who places Zelda II in my top 3 for Zelda titles.

I'm not sure if anyone brought this up, but I figured I'd ask anyway. Just saw the Project M sites banner changed since the last time I was on it, and was wondering, what is that shadow in purple supposed to be? It doesn't really look like any character to me, the only thing I can even think of is Aegislash cuz of the little hand tassle thing. Anyone know what it is?

Nothing wrong with that. Am I not allowed to point out the game's flaws though?

Everybody has their favorites but I don't think anyone would hold Zelda II as pinnacle of the franchise.

Watch the new stuff that's out now (the remakes of Phantom Blood, Battle Tendency, and the ongoing Stardust Crusaders), and go from there with the manga.

whatever
I feel like I need to express this, because if I don't I'll explode.Why does PM Puff suck so goddamn hard?! She gets zoned out by literally any character with even a tiny projectile! It's embarrassing! Hell, I even asked Hbox about her on Twitter and he straight up told me to just not bother!!! Did Nintendo really destroy her in Brawl to the point that she was irrecoverable?! Seriously, wtf?

PM Puff is Melee Puff, her being bad in Brawl doesn't directly explain why she's bad in PM because her Melee version is far superior.
She's bad in PM because the cast as a whole just good at beating what she does. Melee's smaller cast of relevant characters allows her to better thrive because the relevant characters just happen to be the ones she has decent/good matchups against.
The larger cast in PM comes equipped with a plethora of characters who can just outrange her, avoid her gimps, camp her to death, etc.
Basically, she would need an overhaul of some sorts to be relevant in PM because her current playstyle, that being the Melee Puff playstyle, just doesn't work in a new environment.

jigglypuff is the penultimate anti-metagame character; if even ONE mid-tier like young link was buffed enough to be a-tier in melee, she would crumble. but all of her "hard counters" are all a bit poo otherwise, and she does brilliantly against the other top tiers, so top tier she is

Like a couple of other people have said, Jiggs is a 1:1 carbon copy of her Melee self. She was pretty solid in Melee since the small portion of the cast she went up against at high level play lacked the tools to deal with her like they do in PM. She's got a lot more character types to deal with now that they're viable in PM (moreso than in Melee, that is). Puff's exactly the same as she used to be, the environment she's in has been drastically changed, though. My vote for a Puff buff is JC rollout.

First gameplay footage of ruby and sapphire remakes.

LITERALLY WAS NOTHING.

They showed Groudon using drought
They showed Kyogre using Drizzle.
They said "they look a little different, could they be a mega evolution?"


2/10 for first gameplay footage.

Im guessing you're talking about this?
To be fair it wasn't really meant to be gameplay footage, just a sneek peek.

If this is gamefreaks definition of trying to build hype then they need to take lessons from Sakurai.

Even his pictures of the day shows more than those 40 seconds.

In those 40 seconds they showed presumably what could of been apart of the intro or when the pokemon is shown. It uses the same animation style that was used when they do the cutscene with Xerneas and Yvetal.

So we know that they use the same style as X and Y, which I want to say was obvious.

Do you really expect them to be significantly different to every other game that came before?
