I"M GOOD!

Figured I'd steal the question :p

But I did enjoy Evo today, and am starting a curious debate about how rulesets should be/are made, and I always enjoy a good debate.

Hows about yourself?
Haha :p
Watched Evo with friends and I'm currently watching Marvel's grand finals. Quite enjoying it myself. What subject in mind about the ruleset do you want to debate?

Earthbound is already rereleased in Japan on the Wii U eShop. Not sure when it would get rereleased everywhere else. Apparently late 2013 though... According to the Wiki at least....

Hopefully it releases before the end of summer so I can actually get and play it...

im sure earthbound will get an E10. now the real question is how much will they have to "censor" things to allow it on the VC....hopefully not very much.

I really hate how the Marvel community is making fun of Melee and insulting it. Stating it's not worth 137k view. Can't believe people are that close minded and salty :facepalm:.

I think they're just jealous or stupid. Melee got that many views for a good reason, which they apparently fail to see.

I got very tired of VGbootgame's chat, with the amount of rabid fans saying things like:

WHENS COSMO? COSMO COSMO COSMO. WHERE COSMO?!

I have no idea why there were that many crazy fans of that one guy on that chat.

pshh!! MAHVEL is 1-2 years old, it gets no recognition. KoFXIII is 3 years old, that should get more views than MAHVEL.

...ono? you gonna show me the 5 new characters?

Ultra? you f**king wh**e... you didn't show the last character...

Guys, why'd no-one respond to this? :(
Sorry none of us responded. Anyway it seems that it's a completely new Mewtwo not the one from the First Movie. It's tough to say if it recons the original Mewtwo given in Trailers Ash knew who Mewtwo was, but didn't in the actual movie; they also didn't give any real background into the new Mewtwo's original story so who knows.

Will probably have to wait and see what the dub does with the story, but either way the movie apparently sucked (not just for the new Mewtwo but for the plot and length in general) and was very much a cash grab given the marketing and targeting towards older Pokemon fans.

BTW, there's always room on the Manga Mewtwo bandwagon. :troll:


We did all see the Sakurai & Mewtwo article, and most of us are taking it as that Mewtwo's just about a given character. As for how Mewtwo will be handled in regards to recent developments, however, has left everyone clueless.

ONE MORE YEAR!
Remember when you said you didn't like competitive Melee=??? :chuckle: I'm glad you are enjoying it man. ;)

Smash is like cake-flavored carrots: Ain't nothing bad about it, no matter what way you eat it. You can have that cake and eat it, too! :)
Smash and SSBM are trending on twitter
And Mango was, too... all internationally.
I hope NOA notices this.
Dat peak at 135K.
The official number was just over 139k, and until UMvC3's incredible finals (both characters down to less than 1/20th health on the last character in winner takes all match, one of the players whom started in smash), it was the FG record for most live viewers on a livestream.

But hey, UMvC3 is about a decade newer, not counting its' expansion, which makes it just under 11 years newer. Melee was the oldest game at Evo by about 8 years (SFIV is the next oldest), not counting DLC, which would make it at least 10 years older than every game shown on an Evo official stream at Evo.

Just typical hardcore fighting game fans that disown Smash because it's a party game. If it's not a traditional fighter then it's not a fighter. HUUUUUUURRRR

All we know about this fifth character is that it's a character that has never been in a Street Fighter game. The four announced were the four Street Fighter characters that made their 3D debut with SFxTK as everyone else on the SF side was already in 4. The common speculation for the fifth character is either another Evil Ryu/Oni type character, a brand new character altogether, or the MAYOR OF EARTH.

The few people degrading Melee are stupid; we're talking a game literally over a decade older than all of these games ranking up their with them with no sponsorship hype (like Injustice, Skullgirls, MK, MvC, SFxT, and UMvC3 got via either WB Games, Capcom, or the Skullgirls developers).

That's pretty epic that Melee pulled that, especially without being at Evo for 6 years, and by bringing a different audience, as well as setting the FG livestream record until UMvC beat it by just under 5k (congratz to them on that record; they have a great competitive scene).
Did anyone see Justin Wong's comeback just now?? What a huge momentum shift.
Justin Wong's original fighting game he loved=??? Smash 64 and Melee.

Congrats to him on making 2nd at UMvC3 in an incredible finals after almost not entering pools to go swim in pools! :laugh:
For all you first timers; read the tourney rules. :laugh:
I never shake hands at tournaments; I only give hugs.
Just wanna say your quotes of my views of the final results was awesome.

As it turns out, Mango solidifies his place as the best Melee player ever and most clutch smasher ever with his incredible war path in losers' at Evo, ending by revenging his one lost set by winning two sets to a largely overlooked player in dominating fashion. That is how you win it!

I'm expecting Chibi Ryu to be the new character.

It's only a party game because we party the hardest! :shades:

To quote someone from the EVO 2013 Melee Info Dump thread...
Whoever says Smash is a party game… there was certainly a party going on in that crowd.
When Mango threw his shirt into the crowd after he beat Armada and got his redemption, that was epic.

After getting 3rd in Evo in 2007 (the last Evo Melee was at), he came back and won despite some bad play in his second day. Good job Mango.

Yo Wobbles tho.

Smash was nothing short of incredible today. Probably some of the most clutch sets I've witnessed (also the most heartbreaking; I'm looking at you, M2K, and that ****ing SD). I'm inspired to play a lot more, to say the least.

I joked in our Skype chat that if Wobbles won against HBox in game 2 (where he was down 1-0 in the set, and he had 1 stock and no Nana against a Puff on fire with 2 stocks), I would shave my balls.

Well by some divine miracle, Wobbles pulled that win out of his butt, his armpits, his kneepits, between his toes, and pretty much all over his body, and got his body ready, and won without Nana.

That is possibly a greater comeback right there than the 4 stock comeback as Sheik, or Mew2King's famous comeback with Marth on Yoshi's Island.

If that comeback didn't inspire the imagination of what can happen in Melee and what makes competing in Melee so amazing, I feel sorry for you.

The greatest Melee SMASH tournament the world has ever seen, the crowning of the official all-time Melee GOAT, and the ending of Melee at Evo with one of the most beautiful moments in any sport, race, or form of competition I have ever seen that literally brought me to the brink of tears.

Oh, and over 139,000 people watch it live, and it was the FG livestream live record until UMvC3's slobber-knocker finals topped it by just under 5,000 viewers.

Lastly, "Filler" Instinct got booed by the Evo fans when it was presented.

So, basically, I missed everything.
