Smash Bros. Brawl - Wi-Fi confirmed

Just went from a maybe to a must buy

Wow, now you get to pwn anybody who knows or doesn't know you. Awesome!

Woo, this may just be enough to get me to start saving for a Wii. Though, I hope they don't do anything stupid with the Wi-Fi like they did with Pokemon Diamond and Pearl (only able to trade Pokemon that you've already seen/no battle with random people).

I also hope that any forms of glitching doesn't become large in Wi-Fi battles. It just ruins the gaming experience.

I immediately offer myself up as a combatant to whoever wants to fight against me and my Link character. ^_^

We could've done this on the '64 already, online, and yes DFW, I'll gladly see your stuff.

BTW, first official match is between me and Hunter P of PureZC. Be there. 😉

*Already has it pre-ordered a month ago*

Very nice decision. And if I had a Wii, I'd so take you on with my Link. 😉

This is definitly the deciding factor for me. I have to get it now. And I will creame you all with my Link. I can beat almost anyone I kow on both of the other smash bros. games with Link.

I love how different this thread is compared to every other one on GameFAQs. 😃

Everyone there is saying how there isn't a ranking system [as of yet] because of what happened with Metroid Prime Hunters, some players had win percentages of 99.999999 or whatever.

Also, I'd totally set one of my taunts to <(''<😉 <( '' )> (>''😉> for when I play as Kirby. Because its EPIC.

Am I the only one who is not shocked? I mean, a while back when Nintendo mentioned they were looking into doing Wifi with Smash Bros Brawl, I just assumed it was a done deal :shrug:

It'll be a shame if it does really use the friend code system that the DS uses. Having separate codes for each game is just a pain. I understand they're doing it to protect kids, but it would be nice if it was an option - although MP3 isn't quite the same (it's Wii Connect 24 as opposed to a direct connection), it has shown that Wii codes are enough to get two console's talking.

I agree on both counts... I thought Wifi was pretty much a no duh, and friend codes are a bit annoying.

Nevertheless, I look forward to beating people down once the game hits, although the changes to the roster are enough that it'll probably take me a while to settle on my favorite character.

Yep this is really a must buy now! I am glad to see they seem to be thinking this thing through when it comes to Wifi options. I like what they have so far. It may use the friend codes, but you don't need to know other's codes to play against them, but you do need them to keep the stats of your fights.

For a while, it had seemed that they were gonna scrap wifi. Since the original announcement at E3 last year, there hasn't been a peep about wifi until just now. I am annoyed, though that random battles will have no usernames (oh no, the kiddies might see bad words), and no taunts (again, oh no, the kiddies). I understand Nintendo finds itself in a difficult spot, trying to maintain it's kid-friendly image, but this is just annoying.

The thing is, until now, Nintendo had been good at just focusing on making good games, to the point where you wouldn't notice all the effort that had gone into making them as non-offensive and kid-friendly as possible. However, the Internet is new territory here, and it's painfully obvious that they have no freakin' clue how to handle it.

Wow, Link is very popular. If I had a wii + this game + A freaking decent internet connection, I'd take you all on with MY link...and get horribly pwned, no doubt.

Unless Sonic is in. Then I'll use him. And still get seriously Pwned.

And I'll pwn all the links as Samus. In the suit and out. *if you can't tell, Samus is my fav character and I've hardly lost to anybody aside from DO as her* :kitty:

To get back on topic, woot to the power of ten. I will get a wii and brawl. Oh yes. I will. :kitty:

Just out of curiosity, who here has ever defeated a pro smasher?

Now who has defeated anyone who has defeated a pro?

I look forward to playing with you all. I hope their Samus is as fearsome as she managed to become in melee.

I also hope Falco makes his return. He should, if the 'Climbers did. I just hope Marth returns as well. He made for some smashing force.

If anyone is interested in how I play at Melee, I did some comparisons, and my Samus and Link are strikingly similar to those employed by one "Aniki." Go youtube for videos. The Wii browser can't link to stuff for shytt.

I've yet to play a pro smasher, but would love to take up the challenge someday. :kitty:

I can see it now... AGNers connect to SSBB for a 4 player match, and what's the lineup? Link vs Link vs Link vs Link :lol:

ps... I like Link

I don't care HOW, so long as I get the MONEY for a Wii + Brawl. Dammit... I need a job.

Also, I challenge anyone here at SSB Online, PM me if interested! 😃

Heh, he's definitely very, very good as Link. Spin Attacks though, but very capable as Link.

Guys, do Smash online. I can happily walk you through the process.

Good God I hope SSBB doesn't set any of us with ISAI or Ken or Mew2King or anything like that on our first random match. Would be so demoralizing. XD

pfffft

Every player has a weakness, you just have to find it and exploit it. I dunno about the other two, but all Ken has goin for him (that I've seen) is a fancy way to spike people... SPIKE, as in, KO'ing people the cheap way.

(In the case of Me vs. You, ST, I have yet to find said weakness 😛)

I could link you to the Emulator that supports online play, and then I could NOT PM you a link to the ROM.

Ha, awesome, I can't wait to beat up 13 year olds playing as Pikachu.
'cuz everyone knows I can only play as that neon colored rat.

I've played quite a number of pro players, and participated in quite a few tourneys - for SSBM, not SSB.

I took a bit of a hiatus, and strangely, just started getting back into it today - Theres apparently a huge tournament very near to where I live. I can't AFFORD IT because I just purchased a damn laptop, but I'm going to go and speculate, and enjoy the scene.

Pro SSBM is something else. Really, you have no idea until you've played these people. If you don't know what wavedashing is, you have a lot to learn.

Link sucks in Smash Bros. He's a beginner character :P Easy to play, but he doesn't have enough power. But he's good until you unlock some of the others.

I dunno, maybe Brawl will make him better.

Well, I don't know about Link, but I've been keeping tabs on Brawl at the Smash Dojo and I'm surprised at a few things. Diddy Kong is going to playable in this game. Diddy. Kong. 😮dd:
Also the Ice Climbers return along with Ike from FIre Emblem appearing. And the Franklin Badge is an item that reflects attacks. I really can't wait to see the finished game. I know some people probably already know most of what I just said (typed really, but meh) and whatever. Anyways, I'm looking foward to this so I can kick ass and chew gum. :kitty:

I'm pretty sure none of that information at all is really confirmed yet. Don't get your hopes too high.

poj, all of that was confirmed over the past several months. Check out the official site.

Yeah, what the hell are you talking about? It's on the official site -_-
