Oh and often times my nephews would want to play the Tournament mode section and have ranks as random so they can expect the unexpected..It is quite fun watching them work their way up the board until I face them at the semi-finals or finals :X

Giga Bowser is suppose to be the biggest and baddest creature in SSB.

I was pretty good at SSB. But then again so were my friends so it was fairly fun to play against them.
Tournament mode my god, i need the new SSB!!

Oh really? Was he really? Was he even difficult?

The only time he gets frustrated is when I go with Olimar (my main) or Mr. Game and Watch, so I usually always go with Falcon against him. Same thing in Melee.

Haha itemz newbz!
Also I was under the impression that Mr. Game and Watch was terribad, was Andy lying? Why dont you play your mains against him! How is he suppose to get better if he doesnt play you at his best.

One of my favourites from the original was Pikachu, hes awesome >.<

My first thought is that your family needs to cool it a little on the procreating . There are other hobbies, you know? Maybe they could play Brawl instead! XD

Oh and in answer to your question, I don't play against him very often at all. He's my friend's little brother, so it was just because I happened to be at her house lol.

No, I wasn't lying. He is horrible to control and lame to use in general. Anybody who says otherwise is of course lying or insane! Also, why are you asking us? If you're a Super Smash Bros fan, why haven't you played enough to form your own opinion on him?

Giga Bowser is huge and doesn't break a sweat when you try to throw stuff at him or something. Uhh I should probably play and try it out again, but I don't think you can grab him either at all. He's like a "God" who break through things..I mean..I remember using a flamethrower from the Fire Flower once..he just walks right through it and headbutted me off the map a long time ago. :X He's definitely a more threat than the Hands, in my opinion. He moves slow kinda slow though, but then again, the Final Destination map doesn't really need him to move fast at all.

Mr. Game and Watch is terrible(Throwing my 3rd degree in), about as terrible as Ice Climbers. But if you know how to use him correctly, one of my friends does, he's actually pretty good with the correct players using him. I'd be the last player to be him or Ice Climbers, ever. Throw Ness with the other two as well. The Bat boy never grabs my attention.

Well I don't have a Wii..Yet..but then again I got Mario Kart Wii from a friend for a very cheap price..haha. But Mario Kart is something else I play a lot, next with the SSB series.

@CarefulWetPaint: Super Smash Bros Melee is much more fast pace and has those few selective players preferred over Brawl (Mewtwo to Lucario, Ike vs Roy, however you want to look at that one). Brawl is more recent with more stuff in it, but the action pace is a tad slower...So in my opinion, Melee and Brawl are tied, both aren't better than one another. Just one's older and the other is more recent and holds more characters. Oh and when it comes to originality, I had Fox as my favorite, of course

G&W is only bad in Melee. In Brawl, he's actually good. Not really good though, but still viable.
I main C.Falcon though, especially in Melee. While I do prefer Olimar in Brawl, Falcon is still amongst my favorites. He just finds G&W and Olimar annoying to fight.

I find him quite easy to use and very fun if you get the hands on him. He's a blast in Brawl.

Uhhhh
Ice Climbers are one of the best characters in both games, you know? Especially Brawl, where they can actually be considered the second best character in the game. Ness was never good, though.

Didnt play melee very much at all.. and in brawl I was not interested in him at all (cant even remember who I used in brawl atm.) Might have to borrow brawl off my mate and play through it again.

Game and watch was never interesting to me and looked stupid. Im not sure if i used Ice Climbers

Definitely going to have to borrow brawl and get some serious play in so I can remember it all again.

I do remember using Pip though, he was fun.

Maybe so, but without the 2nd Climber, the one you're controlling is pretty much useless. I don't know, I rather not have a teammate and need assistance from one myself. Just me xD It's only depending on how you play and how your skill works and which character you know how to control. Anyone is good if you use them right. I never liked Ice Climbers myself

A little late but welcome to the club there Spinosaurus :x Like I said, I played Brawl, never owned it but no one ever uses Ice Climbers or choose them for the CPU...ever...over here.

[Shining Raichu]

I noticed no measurable difference in Mr. G&W between Melee and Brawl... he seemed exactly the same to me in both lol

Unless he's talking about that one attack...where you shoot fireballs from Mario or Fox's Fire Blaster into his bucket and he flashes with a powerful move ready to use, like a Charge attack Donkey Kong/Samus have..in Brawl? I think that's what they were talking about. Friend showed me it, Melee didn't have that move for Mr Game and Watch.

In fighting games, a character that is too strong or weak would end up getting balanced eventually. When I say balance, I don't mean adding or removing a move, but change the character's stats and properties.

For example, one would think the difference between Melee Falcon and Brawl Falcon is that Brawl Falcon can turn 180 degrees during Falcon Punch. You'd normally think one of the best characters from Melee just got buffed right? Wrong.

In Brawl, C.Falcon's mobility and power have been decreased, which actually hurts him REALLY bad, and made him one of the worst. His Knee is has a tighter timing to get the sweetspot.


Now, for G&W. In Melee, his defense and movement were HORRIBLE. Although he got KO moves, they weren't reliable at all. In Brawl, he's the opposite of Falcon, he actually got buffed and received much more power and speed, making him good. Although his defense is still holding him back, he isn't really terrible anymore, not to mention the Brawl mechanics works better for him than Melee's.

[Sonicfan9988]

Hey! I'll join.

Usernameonicfan9988.

When I play Smash Bros. Brawl, I always play as Sonic, and I also play as Wario or Kirby, but mainly as Sonic.

On the topic of characters that I want in the next Smash Bros. I want Sonic to return, but I also want Hilda to be the Pokemon Trainer that you play as. I have always wanted to see my no. 1 fave game
characters in a game together =D!! Also, I want Sonic & Hilda to team up and fight Giygas in the story mode if there is one. I want Giygas to be the final boss.

I usually play Smash Bros. Brawl offline against the CPU. I usually have Sonic vs. Link & Sonic vs. Fox battles.

My favourite characters are Kirby, Metaknight and Pikachu. I am addicted to this game and always go for the hardest challenges i can get!

Doesn't that get boring facing the same people over and over again though? LOL it would for me! As I've used to always select Fox from the start of Smash Bros Original and Melee, until I've practiced using Peach from time to time. As still undefeated with Fox, he's now my back-up/secondary character as Peach is my main. Other than that, I pretty much randomize the opponents/CPU to face.

Plus, welcome to you and FallenUmbreon!

well I usually play the same characters in franchise based fights eg. Mario vs. Lugi vs. Peach vs. Bowser (sometimes adding Donkey Kong, Yoshi or Wario) or Pikachu vs. Red vs. Lucario vs. Jigglypuff.

[Spinosaurus]

Fighting the CPU is boring for me.

I miss using Yoshi and Luigi.

[Shining Raichu]

I only ever play the CPU. If I have a friend over or I'm at a friend's place, we'll play against each other, but 90% of the time I'm playing the CPU and I never get bored of it haha.

Admittedly, I spend most of my time in the 100-Man and 15-Minute Brawl sections because I like fending off a whole stack of enemies at once and seeing how many I can beat. I make up back stories for the characters in my head and I see the entire cast of the game as sort of like The Avengers, tasked with protecting the Earth

...man I'm sad.

I do, do that sometimes. Like not only that, but in other ways. Like Roy/Ike vs Marth vs Link vs Young/Toon Link, the Swordsmen battle. Then the little guys, Ice Climbers vs Mr Game and Watch vs Ness vs Pikachu/Kirby/Jigglypuff, etc. Quite amusing. And the famous guys, Mario vs Sonic vs Pikachu and I'll be whoever I am..which is Peach since I don't really pick anyone else these days lol

You & your Avengers LOL
I never get bored of the CPU either! It's quite fun. What does everyone normally like playing? Stock/Time/Bonuses/Coins?

[Sonicfan9988]

Me, I always have Time matches and the time is set for 5 minutes. Sometimes I have Stock and Coin matches.

I've always loved doing Stock, because that way we have no time limit :X I hate Time Limits to be honest. I wouldn't mind playing them, my good friend here set it up when I let him and it's usually Bonuses. But I HATE Coins. I just do lol I want to fight, not collect fake money

Has anyone ever actually used 99 Lives for Stock and fought till the last man standing? I've done it, like, probably way to much haha. It's definitely a long match but probably not as long as the 99:00 minutes one...or is it? O.o

[Sonicfan9988]

I have done the 99 stock match once, but I have NEVER done the 99:00 minute match! The longest time match that i've ever done is 20:00 minutes.

[Spinosaurus]

Done too

but I have NEVER done the 99:00 minute match! The longest time match that i've ever done is 20:00 minutes.

Done as well, back when I mained Sonic. (Was obsessed.)


Speaking of mains, anyone here love to change mains constantly? Although I usually stick with at least one character the whole time, I end up maining a variety of characters for a short period.
Like in Melee for me: Mewtwo -> Pikachu -> Yoshi -> Dr. Mario -> Captain Falcon (Current & probably primary)
Brawl: Sonic -> Yoshi -> Luigi -> Olimar (Primary main) -> Game & Watch -> C.Falcon (current)

In bunch of other fighting games too
Marvel vs Capcom 3: Amaterasu -> Spider-Man -> Super Skrull -> Dormammu -> Phoenix Wright -> Frank West -> Haggar
Tekken: Yoshimitsu -> Armor King -> Dragunov -> Kazuya
Street Fighter x Tekken: Bison -> Guile -> Ogre -> Steve
Street Fighter 4: Nah this is the only game where I stayed with one character (Bison)

[Yoshikkko]

Don't really use many but I switch between Marth (which is pretty much the main main lol), Dedede and Ness. Dedede feels so different than the other two though for obvious reasons so when I switch to him it takes some time to get used to lol.

[Sector Revenge]

Okay realistic I've used 4 mains/primaries my entire life, but only two I care to use to this day and love them to this day

Original Super Smash Bros I've used Mario. He was my main. It wasn't until the very end right before Melee released when I transit to Fox. When Melee came out, other than Trophies and Goals, I've used nothing but Fox McCloud. He is my main character overall, and with our history together, it only make sense.

During that span, I've pretty much used half and half, back before I went into the xbox 360 gaming, I've used Mewtwo as my secondary or practiced using him more so than used Fox to fight. But that ruined my chance to actually use him against more players than I actually faced. Not to mention Brawl has Lucario and I prefer Mewtwo over Lucario anyday.

Now I have put Fox back as a back-up, or secondary character, if you will, and Princess Peach is my main. Two completely different stylists of fighters, Fox who is a fast pace fighter, and Peach, who is more of a laid back, calm fighter. I've learn how to control both of these and perfect them both.

So really in order
1. Princess Peach
2. Fox(Although I've used him the most my entire life right now)
3. Mewtwo
4. Mario(Thanks to Super Smash Bros, the original one)

The rest I only cared to use in 1P modes. I've used Pikachu a few times back then but not very much today.

[CarefulWetPaint]

In SSB original I did lvl 9 cpu 4 players me vs them with the most lives you can have however many that was, needless to say I dominated.

Mains well lets see,

Fox was one I have used the most over all the games, hes just so fun xD.
In brawl I used Metaknight i think his name is? for the most part, just using fox when I wanted to win for sure.
I used pikachu the most in the original one, as he was my favourite. Using his thunder and pausing it as it hit someone was fantastic! Other then that I didnt really use any other characters all that much.. I guess I should probably branch out abit more...
Oh and I used kirby a lot to but who doesnt, hes just so fun!

Hehehe me too!
I also do like Pikachus Electric Spin thingy (don't know name)

[Shining Raichu]

I always do Stock battles, because I can't stand any other kind lol. It's just a nice and clean way to play, it's not convoluted because you can clearly see how many lives a person has and how much it will take to defeat them. In time battles every time you kill each other you have the +1 -1 thing happening and you never know who's winning. The other kinds I just find too stressful
