Will you go online to find out how characters are unlocked?

[WeXzuZ]

I will not go online for the first two weeks. I will play through SSE, Classic and Target Smash with every Starting character and see who I unlock. Play through various difficulties. THEN when I have done all modes in all difficulties I will consider going online.. Its just impossible to stay away from internet and not getting spoiled though.

 

[Ouendanation]

I'm definitely buying a guide. I want to unlock everything; once that's done, I'll finally be able to get to the real meat of the game.

Whhhaaaa? There are guides for Smash?

 

[brawl1994]

im buying the official guide....

 

[drengist]

What's the point buying a guide if you can use the internet?

 

[Devotion]

I'm kinda having second thoughts about both since I'm gonna stop coming here and Dojo when Brawl hits Japan, so I'm surprised by the unlocks and I wanna get them in myself, but I also wanna get stuff in ASAP. If only there would be a site that said how to unlock everything but wouldn't state what you were unlocking.

 

[Mr.Victory07]

Ill probably go online to see WHICH characters are in, and then buy Brawl alonside a guide book and have that tell me
And to everyone saying"oh imz gunna AVOID the interwebz bcuz i donts want spoilzers" the internet and temptation are impossible to avoid, theyre all around you

 

[M3tr01D]

I will try by myself for 1 day of just straight grinding through all the game modes as fast as possible trying to unlock stuff, and then I will probably buy a cheat device and just auto unlock all the stuff. Online mode and Versus mode is way more fun then any single player version of the game has ever been.

 

[Silfa]

It depends. Once I find out the Australian release, I'll decide. If the release is ages, I'll go online and find out what characters there are (but not how to get them), though if it's not too long I'll just stay away and try and do some stuff myself.

What's the point buying a guide if you can use the internet?

I bought the guide for Melee when it first came out. It is just so much nicer having a guide on paper with color and pictures than having a laptop or B&W text on cheap paper. I am not buying the guide because "that is the only way I know how to find all the secrets"; I just want it.

 

[AttackstorM]

i'm a tournament player and it is a must to unlock all characters and stages as quick as possible at all costs...including looking it up on the internet just so i can see what i'm dealing with.

I somewhat agree, but it's some sort of cosmic law that strategy guides MUST have some sort of mistakes or laughable information in them. I mean, look back at Melee's guide now.

 

[Vortok]

Although I'd like to say I'll play it at first without looking it up (I'll be too busy playing and saying "holy crap!" every 4 minutes to go online anyways), but the Japan release messes everything up. I don't I could stay off the internet (not like I go anywhere other than game related sites) that long.... but maybe. I doubt I'll go online when I first get the game since I'll be... you know... actually playing the game. After the initial wow/amazing factor wears off, I'll prolly check online. Discovering stuff is cool, but not so cool for me personally that I'd cut myself off from other gamers for such an extended period of time.

 

[DarthBrittinias]

I will use the internet to help me unlock all of the characters as quickly as I can. The more choices, the better.

It depends on which brand you bought. I have the Nintendo edition, and yeah, it has been heavily marked up with my pen. There are so many errors. XD

My friend had a really nice one. I don't know if it was Prima or something else.

 

[pwnzorz]

ON the LINE.

 

[Xenesis]

Knowing what happened in SSBM - (Friends and I unlocked all characters in a single night...including a 1 hour match on Big Blue to get Mewtwo... ;_; ) we'll look it up and attempt to unlock whatever we can, as fast as we can.

 

[ZenJestr]

after the first week I'd start checking online...

 

[Fossilized Ursidae]

I'm going to go through Brawl not knowing how to unlock somebody until
A) I meet one of the criteria
B) One of my friends meet it and they tell me
C) I get too anxious about the characters and have to give in

 

[Jackal478]

Yes I will. Maybe a week after the realease.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

I'm gonna look at the full roster list, but I'm not gonna find out how to unlock them.

I like finding them on accident...

 

[notftomearth7]

Are you going to try and figure out how to unlock things for yourselves, or are you going to find out online? I'm going to try and do it myself. Also, how will we know when all characters/things are unlocked?

I'll probably buy the game and then wait a month or so.

 

[sand_demom]

im checking on the dojo till i get the game comes out. i need to see all the characters .

 

[Tobi-]

i dont want to see all the characters. it will actually be fun and exciting to unlock someone new. of course though, im going to have to spoil myself, because i wont figure out how to unlock them on my own.

winning 1,000 vs matches? pff. you think im going to do that because i THINK that's how you unlock someone?

 

[GoldenIke]

I will wait to janurary then quit so i got a month full of exclusive surprises OMG GOTTA GET A MILK

 

[Foe]

You only get one chance to unlock everything before you find out how to unlock everyone and it gets boring.

 

[Rane]

About a month after I get it, I'll go online and get a checklist of everything unlockable, and then if I can't figure out how to get everything a few months after that, I might go find out how to get everything.

 

[Symphony X]

After I feel lke I've done everything I can think of to unlock stuff, then I will say hello to Gamefaqs.

 

[GoldenIke]

gamefaqs gameshaqs I like gamespot better gamefaqs rips-off from them

 

[iLink]

I'll probably start to look stuff up after I enjoy it for a few days.

 

[Moon Monkey]

I hate going online for smash to get unlockables it kills the fun and experience for me

 

[ThatOtherGuy]

I'm going to read a FAQ based on the Japanese version and plan out how to unlock all the characters in the quickest possible way.

 

[Sprigginz_Caldo]

I would LOVE to find out how to unlock the characters without knowing which character I'm unlocking. If anyone could post that, I would be so happy.

 

[Nekorion]

1 stock vs matches all day.
Ill have everyone by the end of the day if that still applies ;p

 

[skyblue]

I just hope that the Dojo will update every character before the Japanese release. Then I'll know what characters are in it. If I don't find a way to unlock one of those characters, I will look online.

 

[C.Olimar788]

I'll try to unlock them all by myself, but if I become hopelessly stuck I'll look online.

Staying away from the Smash Boards from the time of SSBB's Japanese release to its US... I hope NSider's back up by then. XD

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

I would LOVE to find out how to unlock the characters without knowing which character I'm unlocking. If anyone could post that, I would be so happy.

I will gladly create that guide for you.

 

[axi0n]

I'll know all the characters and which are secret but maybe I'll try keeping how to unlock them a suprise so atleast something will be a suprise.

 

[Prime Time]

online right away

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

LOL! I am surprised at all these players so sensitive to "ruining the surprise". My surprises will hide within each of the characters in how well they hold up in competitive environments. Metagame rules. ^_^

 

[Symphony X]

I will gladly create that guide for you.

That would be a VERY cool guide. I don't wanna know which one I'm unlocking.
