I just used Mega Man's Down twice in a row for once. Pretty sure it's not a chain grab. But I'm a little surprised it worked at all.

 

[SlickWylde]

Been having fun with the demo! Still hate the 3DS though, so gonna wait for the Wii U version haha. Been borrowing my bro's 3DS to see if I could get used to it, it's just too small, and the buttons are too close together. But man, even that 5 character 2 minute roster is super fun to play!! :D

P.S I don't actually hate the 3DS, so don't think I'm trying to flame or anything. I personally just can't use it, and don't enjoy the small screen experience (talking about XL, the whole thing just doesn't work for me) I'm glad other people enjoy it.

1) I'm sure we can get a non-clipped Optimistic Charizard nowadays, albiet 3DS version
2)

Perfect Square.​

It worked!

Bair is Mega Man's best kill option as it can kill pretty easily and is quick and safe. Def want to try and not stale the move too much to save it as a kill option as it is his best one.

Advice; Don't get on a Level 9 Mario's bad side as Mega Man
Those guys know how to use the cape at just the right moment
next thing you know you're being sent further off the stage for trying to Hard Knuckle a Mario recovering
or going down from trying to Air Tornado a High Up Mario

Level 9 Marios always manage me to make me mad. Stupid Cape against my Charge Shot.

 

[Soul.]

That's pretty good. I remember getting a K.O on Mario with Mega-Man's "uncharged" Charge Shot at 95% or so. I may not be a pro. But damn it, I'm actually think I'm getting decent now. All I need to do now is get used to dodging more. I feel like that's the only thing from keeping me getting better. Well, that and major combos. But I'm not worried about that.

I know, lol. You got a K.O that early? Wow, and I thought Mega Man's forward smash wasn't going to be used at all. I was wrong.
Try doing that with a level 1 CPU. You can cancel the run animation by shielding. It will make you get better. If an opponent tries to hit you, shield. If an opponent is close to you and wants to grab, get out of the shield and jump as soon as possible---out of shield is what most people refer that option. When shielding, you have a list of options you can do. Using Up B, jumping, shield grab, etc.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I tend not to have problems facing lv9 Marios. It's the lv9 Pikachus that are a pain in the ass.

 

[Bedoop]

Level 1 Mega Man is amusing to watch
All they do is FTilt back and forth

 

[PLATINUM7]

I think it's weird that Mario's cape can't reflect Villager's pot plant. Even if he reverses Villager's dash attack the plant is still thrown in the original direction.

Does that mean Villager throws his pot backwards?

That's what it looks like.

How peculiar.

Friends were talking mad **** today in Smash Bros. so I had to show 'em whats what.

Less than two weeks left until a new era. Can't wait.

Yeah, I've been shielding while running. Though I feel like that's screwing me over a little when I intend to dodge. I'll try to keep it in mind though, thanks.

As for Mega Man's Charge Shot, it's pretty good. Not great though, just enough to get the job done. But it's fun as hell to get a K.O. with. Almost reminds me of blowing up Robot Masters with it.

I tend not to have problems facing lv9 Marios. It's the lv9 Pikachus that are a pain in the ***.

I've got the opposite problem. Pikachu is easy enough to deal with. But Mario's cape can mess up a well timed charge shot. Which is why throws and Up Smash seem to work better. I need to get the hand of Mega Man's Down Smash. It's strong, really strong, but it's slow. So I need to work on my timing.

The only thing I don't like about the 3DS is the circle pad. Too slippery. The screen's great though. I found myself saying this when playing Mario Kart 7, and some of my DS games.

 

[InfiniteTripping]

I'm kind of amazed at how Nintendo games retain their value for so long. I've been selling off a lot of my old games just because I can't store them anymore, and it's just crazy the prices you can get for them. Like an old copy of Pokemon Red sells for $20 still... that's a game that sold millions of copies and it commands that price. The only Nintendo game that didn't retain its value is Other M, which if you sell used is somewhere between dog crap and an AOL Free Trial disc.

I'm finally getting some good wins with Mario. It's taken a while, but I'm starting to get used to him in this game. Then again, I normally never fight Level 9's with Mario. At least with Mega Man, nearly all of my fights with him have been Level 9 opponents. I might go back to Mega Man soon. But I want to get a couple more fights in with Mario.

Eh, out of all characters in the demo, I'm only good with Mario. xD
I tested all characters though.

I find Pikachu has just too great a defensive game, I struggle to land a hit on him.

I love Dash-Grabbing then Back Throwing Mario, follow it up with a Dash Attack, and prepare for a Hard Knuckle.

As for the 3DS Circle Pad, I don't find it slippery at all. :3

 

[InfiniteTripping]

Mario is not one of my favorites in this game. I'd actually like it if he was like SS tier but it seems like that is impossible.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I really like Mario, his forward air is just amazing in this game.
Not too mention his attacks have been sped up.

 

[Bedoop]

As for Characters I love using, Listed by Tiers;
SS:
S:
A:
P:
Yes, I intentionally did the SSSAP inside joke that none of you would understand, but I would be happy to explain.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I have to say, I suck with Villager.

 

[AustarusIV]

I have to say, I suck with Villager.

I never did get the appeal with him when I tried out the demos at SDCC.

However, I'm still thinking of trying him out more once I get the game on its release. In any other case, I prefer all the other characters in the demo.

 

[MSmariosonic]

So out of all the characters in the demo is Mega Man my favorite. I love his Dair and Up Tilt.
I majorly suck with Villager. Oh and Mario's Fair... is love and life.

 

[Aurane]

I haven't gotten the chance to play the demo, so I really don't know what to say about the characters. I want my first experience with Smash 4 to be with Lucario, anyways, who I know I'll be good with.

...But that also means I have to wait. *sigh*

 

[Knight Dude]

So now I'm going a few rounds against Pikachu. Way easier to deal with than Mario. I managed to not get K.O.'d even when I was at 202%. I was flying around, sure, but I'm surprised Mega Man could take a beating like that. If you couldn't tell by like 30 or so posts, I really like this character, and his playstyle. He's my go to guy for sure.

Can't wait to try out Fox. He's usually one of my go to fighters as well.

 

[Bedoop]

Here's SSSAP for ya.
A.K.A. ZZZAP. :3

 

[MSmariosonic]

Man, Mario is such a tough opponent. Way harder than Pikachu.

[Jords2Good]

I'm so glad mega man plays well. I really had my doubt's.

 

[Kenith]

I suck with everyone.
In fact, Villager is probably the only one I'm moderately good at.

Of course, that is more the result of the character being overpowered rather than my input.

 

[The Original Robot boy]

so there's eleveen days left till the US release i wonder shoul i get the igital copy or physical copy.....

 

[PLATINUM7]

I just got Mega Man stuck between two bumpers.
Ahh bumper hilarity, how I missed you.

Wow, I KO'd a lv9 Link 3 times with a Home-Run Bat!

 

[Kenith]

I've played the demo for a couple hours total, around thirty matches at this point.

And whenever I grab an Assist Trophy, nine times out of ten, it's Ghirahim.

And every time I contemplate laughing or crying.

 

[Aurane]

Found something cool.

Waiting for ssb crusade to come out

 

[MSmariosonic]

I keep getting my *** handed to me by Mario.

 

[Knight Dude]

I keep getting my *** handed to me by Mario.

Yeah. Since I'm playing Mega Man, he's kind of hard to deal with what with the Cape and all. Link is slightly annoying, only when he's standing still. Villager and Pikachu are easy elo. And another Mega Man is pretty back and forth, sometimes it's easy, other times the CPU Mega Man will kick some ass.

The 3DS is making my hands hurt, but the game is so good. I should save up for a Wii-U I guess. Pretty sure I've done nearly 100 matches already. I could buy a ****load of trophies whenever I get the actual game. And that makes me happy.
