If there's a smashfest this weekend, I'll bust out my mad Pichu skillz. I used to play him as a semi-third type of thing and I figure it will be fun to do it again.

Power rankings are kind of fun, it does give you some sort of incentive to play better. It's like that episode of Malcolm in the Middle where the new teacher ranked his students.

We should call each other by numbers too.
lol u just saw that episode today lol ;p

No games are online yet. You can use online to download the Opera browser and surf the net on your TV and to add people to your address book so you can leave messages on each other's Wiis. They'll add the Weather Channel next month and News Channel in January. Hopefully online games coming soon.

BRAWL DAMMIT BRAWL.

I need my Zelda. Just 60 - 62 hours to go.

Yeah #2, I saw it was on today. It's a good idea, no?

lol yes, i loved that episode.

spite, moneymatch ? best of 5? even $2?

does that mean if there is a smashfest, that you'll go?
Sure, I've got some money. How about best of 5, $5? Five matches for $2 sounds like too much for too little :p

And yeah, I'm in Van City all weekend (my dad, who lives in Vancouver, is buying my Wii - if it were otherwise, I'd go home to Aldergrove, I haven't been there in a while) so I'll probably be good to make any smashfest.

Sure. You must be a BALLER to moneymatch $5 on one set. My anything vs your anything yes? I can call blind picks?! ... advanced slob picks? dave's stupid rule? [anyone wanna remind me of what these are?] joking.

I remember i won $50 off Brad, you might remember him, in ten single matches. You do the math. Gave it back to him though, he's my bud!

And yes, sir, $pite, expect a good set. =]



Nice to meet you, Camerican [kyle!] Welcome to smashboards, and I hope to play you soon.

My name is Manuel, and I play Marth. Apparantly i'm ranked 12th, but we'll have to see about that =]. You should check out the BC POWER RANKINGs created by "hitsugaya" to see who's good. anyway

BUHBYE! <3

What? I assumed you'd be playing Mewtwo every game!

Nah, I'm kidding. We'll go by the "standard" rules for sets, anything vs. anything. And I expect a good set.

Welcome Camerican to smashboards. My main: Mr. Game and Watch, my secondary: Kirby.

Manuel! I'll MM your Fox or Falco with Mewtwo!

On a side note... The PS3 is all hype! I've played it and im not impressed! Graphics aren't so great compared to the X360 and when I was playing Resistance: Fall of Man on it I felt that it had lagged a slight bit at times.

I think they'll have more. I mean... most Superstores had around 4 PS3s I think. Best Buy at Cambie supposedly has 90 Wiis. Wal Mart at Lougheed should have 68 Wiis. Best Buy opens at 8 AM. Wal Mart at 9 AM I think. Future Shop is at 10 AM. I'm leaning towards arriving at Future Shop at 7:30 - 8:00 AM. Calling Best Buy at 8 to ask how many units they have and if they aren't sold out, heading there and getting one. Dunno yet. I'll see how it goes.

Future Shop and I think Best Buy are giving out tickets to those in line 2 hours before opening.

Hopefully far away from anybody who wants to know
When is Brawl coming out anyway?

- Last official news we heard was Christmas 2007. Which means I'm not getting a Wii till then.

- MLG reported rumour of Brawl coming out in May 2007. This would rox0rz my socks, it's two months after my birthday so I'll get a Wii for my birthday.

- Futureshop says Brawl's coming in March 2007. I'm inclined to not believe this at all for obvious reasons.

Anyway, yesterday my dad got a Best Buy email about the Wii, says they release a new batch every hour, it shouldn't be insanely hard to get if that's the case (assuming there aren't 3-day lineups).

Every canadian should rep me for no reason. <333

Can I get a link to your tourney thread? I can't seem to find it, and I'm too lazy to use the search function. <3 thanks.

Money matches?

Good games guys. Manuel, that was an extremely close set. Kirby + Kongo Jungle = win, I'm glad it isn't banned. I've yet to lose there. Kirby counters Marth!

Anyways, next weekend in Aldergrove, the one following I'll be going to a hockey game... one of these weeks I'll host a smashfest here in Vancouver.

South Van, Marine Drive Area. It would probably be a few weeks from now, as I'll be busy for a while, but it would be a possibility. I hate having to rely on rides/buses to get to smashfests - solution = host one, lol.

Oh, and I could also maybe get my friends from Aldergrove to come, they're mainly not that good but if they got consistently beat by some advanced players, maybe their competitive natures would take over and they'd learn a thing or two.
