So, I heard you like the blue connections...I've personally never seen one. Do they really exist? Any pics floating around of one?

At the starting screen for "With Friends" on wifi, each person you've already played has a connection status circle to the left of their name. This circle could range in color from a dark red (terrible connection), to a blue connection (which, if it exists, would be the best available connection).

I've had 1 blue bar with someone from NJ. My GF lives 10 minutes from me and we have orange or yellow at times lol. I don't think there's much logic to this connection system at all.

Nintendo's wifi is screwed up...There's a guy that lives 6 minutes from me, and we have a dark red.

@VEC: It goes from red, orange, yellow, green, and apparently blue (that's worst to best).

I'd like to have a blue one. D: I only have 1 green and the rest are yellow. >_>

And why does the manual state that yellow is the color you should want? (I think it said that...)

I have like 4 blue ones =D Does that make me the awesomest person here? No really, I think it's because I live in Holland. Lots of smasher, so close together.

Yellow to blue is the "ideal connection range"-SSBB Manual

Everyone seems to have blue connections except for me D=

Wow... I've never seen a blue connection. Oddly enough, though, I've had a green connection with a friend in Sweden even though I'm way over in the US.

Never seen it. I'm pretty sure I read about it in the Bible, though. "And then God said, let there be one being that stands out amongst them all: 'the blue connection'. If thou sees this delicate creature, thou shall consider hisself blessed."

I have mostly yellow connections, unfortuantely a few red and orange.

I have a friend who lives only a couple blocks away, our connection is orange! Why, I implore? His internet must suck, because I use a USB. Easy as heck, and pretty much destroys lag.

Rofl. Nintendo is somewhat new to the world of wifi...I suppose it's only natural that there would be flaws in Brawl's wifi compatability.

Does anyone have a pic of a blue connection? I'm really curious about what it looks like...I know it's not a big deal, but still. I may not live to see an actual blue connection for myself XD

Hazeon, give me a moment to set up my recording stuff and I'll take a picture of it for you. =D

Here they are, all connections except for the Yellow one, since I didn't have any in my list:

It's the feared Red Connection. If you got this, you might not want to play this person again. Or you can kill yourself.



Then we have the common Orange Connection. It's decent, but nothing to write home about. I guess if you really want to play this person, it's ok.



Oh shi- The Green Connection. This one's pretty good. Sure, it has it's laggy moment here and there but the general flow of the game isn't too bad. Praise yourself lucky if you get this.



Oh. My. God. The Legendary Blue Connection! Only few will encounter it. You should praise yourself godlike if you have one of these. Epic win.

In South Florida all I see mostly is reds, oranges, and I've only seen two greens...I really hope to see more or at least a blue along the way in the future.
