One of the three Smash Brothers Invitational commentators, progducto, is talking about Nintendo and his E3 experiences right now on Twitch. If you are interested in hearing what prog has to say, tune in right now! He is a vocal ambassador for the Smash Brothers community and has some excellent thoughts on what comes next.


Listen to him here! *EDIT* The stream has ended. If there is a recording available it will be linked here in the near future!

Is this going to be recorded for others to watch/listen to later? I would love to tune in but my phone does not like playing twitch and I seem to have run out of data thanks to Tree House Live...

I think it's a lost vod, guys. He never has record sessions on, sadly.

$100 says he prob said something like "I gave Nintendo a list and they picked, I didn't do anything biased guys"


A list of 80 melee players (didn't include m2k, armada, hax, mango aka anyone important), oh and 1 brawl player probably.


I guess it bothers me that a nobody is a "representative" of the smash community and had such an influence over the most important smash lime-light it's had in 13 years.

It's not totally irrational. Let's remember that a year ago, Nintendo tried to shut down the Evo stream. Yes, that decision didn't last long, yes, they got a huge amount of flak for it, but it still happened and I honestly can't imagine any other company being sooo out of the loop that they'd think that was a good idea for even a second.

What if Project M gets too big to completely ignore? What if it had been P:M in Melee's place last year at Evo? These are not irrational questions. I love P:M and 100% want it to rocket up alongside Melee. What if that dream comes true and we suddenly find a much colder response from Nintendo?

All I want is some sort of official reassurance that if we get P:M to that level, it won't be all for naught and we won't get shot down at the very last second.

ya i mostly agree with u. i think the huge negative response from them trying to shut down melee at evo opened their eyes tho, made them realize competitive players are just as much their customers as casual players (i hope.) project m isnt low profile at all and tbh its probably making history as one of the most successful console mods but smash 4 is coming out pretty soon so itll no doubt be overshadowed by that. i think project ms growth is gonna slow down around smash 4s release so nintendo gets to stay quiet about it

>A nobody
What a really mean thing to say. Prog is extremely nice and he does have a job other than commentating.

I was playing melee with many firends in a basement with a few TV's so I missed the twitch. Did anyone record it?
