Smashboards Combo Video suggestion

[Blue Yoshi]

Ok, as we all know, they want melee and brawl in the combo video competition. Most of us have tried to include 64, but have failed. They gave many excuses why there should be no 64.

But I think I may have discovered a loophole...

They said specifically they want melee and brawl... so why not make a combo video including 64, melee, and brawl? They did say they did not want 64... but I think they meant no 64 only. Of course, we'll have more melee and brawl clips than 64, but at least we're including smash 64 so that people can see that it exists along with the other two. If we include it along with melee and brawl (an equal balance of the three), then I think they'll accept it. who knows... maybe we'll be in the running for the win?

I think if we were to go through with this, we should have the entire 64 community involved in the one combo video (or at least those interested). The more people involved, the better it will look, and the better combos we can get.

Is anyone up for making a combo video involving all three games?

 

[DMoogle]

What's dumb is the fact that they're combining games at all.

 

[Blue Yoshi]

Just a suggestion. If no one is up for it, then we won't do it.

 

[NixxxoN]

lol

Make some combos at dreamland / kongo jungle and people will confuse it with melee

 

[TANK64]

Why not just 64. They are allowing 64, we just can't win first prize. It sounds like you're saying no 64 only entrances.
Did no one read this?

So yes you guys officially have the green light to submit 64 and Brawl+ stuff under the condition of a maximum of one each in our top 5 and that it cannot win first prize (reasoning described in a previous post by me in here). I will get the announcements updated tomorrow.

 

[Blue Yoshi]

I did read that. I'm just suggesting a way to submit a video such that we can still possibly win first place... and so that people will watch it.

 

[TANK64]

Gotcha. That is pretty ambitious. I'm not sure how I feel about mixed vids though.
Plus I really really do not think they will sway at this point. But if they do, there will be trumpets sounding and an orchestra playing a classical interpretation of we are the champions.

 

[Nybb]

They're not just going to let us get in on a loophole. It's not a legally binding contract. If MLG doesn't want 64 in the final product, they just won't put it in, even if we manage to circumvent the rules with a technicality.

The thing that TANK64 quoted is the best chance we're gonna be given. It would be sweet if somebody here submitted something. It would definitely get my vote.

 

[Blue Yoshi]

Well... the way I read it, they simply said they want melee and brawl. I understood it as no '64 only' videos because it would look old. I probably mis-read the post then...

putting brawl in the competition is fail and not putting ssb64 is fail

fail x2

 

[†¹Ãgøn¥¹†]

rofl a brawl ''combo'' video. Make me laugh more pleassssse.

 

[killa k]

[SheerMadness]

I think its a good idea. Ssb64 combos would look even cooler if you strategically placed them next to some mediocre brawl/melee combos. You'd have like:

1st clip terriblely boring brawl combo
2nd clip decent melee combo
3rd clip insane 30 hit ssb64 combo

That kinda thing. Someone should definitely do it, not me though.

 

[Blue Yoshi]

... we would have the best brawl, the best melee, and the best 64 if we were to do this. This way, all three games are shown in their prime. If we had some messed up video of melee and brawl, no one would stick around for the 64.

But yeah... that's basically the point. We sneak in smash 64 vids in the melee and brawl vids (something like brawl first, 64 next, them melee last or something like that).

I read this as well. I prefer this above blue yoshi's idea, we're the ssb64 community after all. We're not aiming for the price anyway, we want some recognition.

 

[SmashThugZ]

I got some old videos you guys can use.
They're only like 10-12 hits, but I like the Link ones.

Just have someone redo them in higher quality. Haha.

That fits in perfectly with what sheer said!

Isai and boom should contribute! ha

 

[t3h Icy]

I have a ton of footage I could dig up and contribute if this is more of a "community" combo video. Otherwise most of the elites will outclass most others' stuff.

 

[P D]

ive got some epic music that i could contribute

honestly, samus is so underrated. yeah, maybe samus is not the best comboer in the game, but as a samus main, u find alternate ways to win, and in the end, isnt winning what this game is all about?

edit: there are a few combos that even samus can perform. id be glad to show anyone first-hand

 

[DaveBF]

Quick! Hi-res textures! They won't know the difference!

"Isnt winning what this game is all about?" is the main cause for all the angry people who complain and whine when they lose.

Show me first-hand sometime.

THIS.

This game is about having fun, not winning.

 

[Superstar]

But if no one is trying to win the game is boring. He didn't really say at the cost of fun.

If you wanted to do a mix, you could show many clips of Brawl/Melee/64 in the beginning, all of them on the screen for less than a second, and eventually speeding up to almost an ms each until the title shows up. To give the idea that it's "for all 3 games".

Though I prefer a raw 64 vid.

well, im in the cali bay area. where are u at?

on a side note, i think havin just a ssb64 combo vid would be sick, but its pretty messed up that it wouldnt be able to win the prize

 

[SmashThugZ]

Im in San jose.
You don't play this game online?

san ho for reals? ive played both tigerbomz and isai before in san ho so its not too much of a hassle to drive there. we should play one of these sundays seeing as how thats my only day off from work. and no, i only play "real" smash aka console

 

[Skrlx]

Quick! Hi-res textures! They won't know the difference!

lol.

MIGHT WORK.

 

[asianaussie]

I wouldn't be surprised if it did, actually. And can we use the Japanese version? Super awesome sound effects, plus Ness and Link look better.
