It kind of sucks that Dr. Mario has no meteor smash potential, though his forward smash in the air isn't all that bad since it still sends people flying off in the direction it's facing. I'll probably just continue to stick with Mario though.

I don't recall unlocking many Assist Trophies and I already collected them all...

the game is weird. it says youve unlocked them all but you havent /seen/ them all. i saw several new ones after it saying i collected them all

How many are unlockable though? I only remember unlocking one or two lol

Even the finest of games have glitches ya know

more rant

sakurai is recycling material from uprising, which would be kinda okay if it weren't for the fact that he postponed the development of smash to finish uprising.

exhibit a (mentioned in the last rant)
the treasure hunt challenge in uprising had you complete challenges to unlock puzzle pieces. pieces adjacent to the ones you've completed will tell you how to obtain them
the challenges thing in smash is precisely the same thing, except it doesn't add up to a whole picture (just a bunch of snapshots relative to the challenge on the piece). i haven't yet completed the board, but I'm assuming it'll give me a new one with harder challenges, much like how uprising had palutena/viridi/hades boards to complete with each one increasing in hardness

exhibit b
the difficulty scale was introduced in uprising to choose the intensity of the chapter. it runs from 0-9, with 2 as the 'standard' level. levels above the standard require you to bet currency (hearts for uprising) and it will be more expensive the higher you go. there will be harder enemies in high amounts but more rewards. levels below 2 cost hearts rather than betting them., and while the enemies will be easy as crap there will be hardly any reward for doing so.
smash pretty much does exactly the same thing, aside from the visuals and the form of currency.

i bet there's more, but I haven't quite explored all of the game yet. (side note, i edited a few more observations onto the end of my last rant)

I got that milestone thing suspiciously early too. There are characters exclusive to each version of Smash though, so I wonder if the 3ds version has so much less that it only takes 2 or 3 unlocks to say you have all of them?

a question for everyone: what characters have you chosen as your mains? I think mine's staying as meta knight unless pit gets better options for specials in customization.

Zero Suit Samus master race. My main in Brawl, got even better in Sm4sh. Feeling pretty comfortable with the customizations too (Standard 1, Side 3, Up 3, Down 2.)

i don't have the game yet
but my main has always been pikachu, in every game i've played
he'll probably still be my main, but i gotta get the full game and try out all the others first

Mains I'm good with so far are Mario, Dr. Mario, Mii Swordfighter, Kirby, Olimar, and Samus.

Side mains that I've picked up/learning would be Bowser, King Dedede, Fox, Maybe Charizard, Lucario, Greninja, and Pacman.

People I might try in the future are Marth/Lucina, Bowser Jr, Little Mac, Robin, Duckhunt, Sonic, and maybe game&watch.

I've got a lot of playing to do. :p

I unlocked Dr. Mario and Dark Pit before I did Lucina, I haven't touched classic mode either. I unlocked Dark Pit right after Dr. Mario probably because I was doing online with a friend a whole bunch of times before. i am confused

Online matches actually count towards unlocking characters in this one which is really nice in my opinion, I've already unlocked all the characters though through playing matches except Dr. Mario which I went and unlocked at the start, man I don't regret that decision at all because he's absolutely amazing for challenges.

Anyways, anyone up for sharing friend codes? We can start a list somewhere because I really need people to play with haha. Oh, and I almost forgot -- What are you guy's opinion on mii's and the equipment given? I think the Mii's are awesome but some of the equipment kinda iffy.

Sounds about right, though you can't unlock characters while online, which probably what bugged Dr. Mario and Dark Pit to get unlocked before Lucina. Also, I think I got Lucina at 69 matches, since ROB was unlocked right after, and no one was unlocked after that.

I just checked my records, and I have 76 total battles. It's still odd finding Lucina after DM/DP.

I wouldn't mind sharing mine, I'm just not a fan of competitive/online.

I don't really like my Mii, but I haven't changed it. Flame Pillar has a short range, and Absorbing Vortex isn't helpful the majority of the time. Most of the equipment I have so far isn't that great.

I've played 180 matches total and 121 local battles (offline against cpu's for practice). I've played about 59 matches online and only have 26 wins, oooh~

Online isn't that bad when you get used to it, it's actually pretty responsive as far as I can tell though I only like playing with people I have in my friends list and not For Glory/Fun.

I'll go ahead and share my friend code for anyone who wants to add -- Though I can't play at the current moment because I'm running a server for some people and I'm afraid it might lag right now, other then that I have a pretty stable connection. FC: 5172 1823 0999

I really like my Sword Fighting Mii right now, it's equipment isn't bad though it's only positive stat is agility with extra movement speed when running. Very nice for combos and setting up things in my opinion, and even with negative stats in Attack and Defense it's still pretty strong and usually really hard to kill.

All about getting that set up that's right for you.

I forgot to mention that I am kind of leaned towards the competitive side of things but I'm not like one of those people that go by tiers or anything, just like playing the characters I enjoy.

What are you guy's opinion on mii's and the equipment given? I think the Mii's are awesome but some of the equipment kinda iffy.

The Miis are kinda neat, although it's a little creepy to battle against them since it'll use your Miis. Some of the special options seem suspiciously similar to existing ones from other characters, like the Gunner's side 2 being much like Zelda's default side and the Swordfighter's up 3 mirroring Link's default up.
The equipment is hard to balance for me, as it hasn't given me any defense-boosting badges aside from the one you get from the start. It also irks me when computers use one of my setups that is extremely offensive and has a healing badge. :/ To counter it I tried creating a bunch of mock customs on Sonic so that the computers might use his instead of mine. I don't know if it works, as the AI might be picking from solely the character I'm using rather than from anyone on the roster.

which probably what bugged Dr. Mario and Dark Pit to get unlocked before Lucina.

I've yet to unlock any of those three. Are they any better than their counterparts / are there any notable differences?

What do you guys think of Smash Run? It's a bit confusing for me, and some of the enemies are near impossible to kill without taking damage or getting my boost things depleted. I also have little to no understanding what the medal things I pick up do (they usually come out of treasure chests), but they seem to collect on the top bar of the touch screen along with the sacks with question mark icons on them.

Dr. Mario is a lot more powerful, his F-air can't meteor smash but knocks opponents to the direction it's facing which is still good, his D-air is different from Mario's of course and he feels a bit slower to me at least, also his pills are lot bouncier and stay on a set path rather then Mario's that sort of fall and then only bounce a little.

That's the only thing I've noticed from him at least, and smash run is pretty fun when you get used to it though I do agree some of the enemies are kind of BS.

Herp, my brother got the game as a birthday present and he occasionally lets me play it.
I'm pretty decent with Robin (which is surprising as I have NEVER played a Fire Emblem game before), and I haven't tried anyone else out yet lol

We got the wii u release dates!
