Super Smash Bros. Brawl - May 5 08 A

Wow, what a session of SSBB! The whole time I played, not once did I see Final Destination, and not once did I see Ike! Absolutely astonishing. I have no idea how this happened. Could it be that people are finally growing tired of these stages?

Match #1
Zelda
WarioWare, Inc.
Wouldn't you know it, my first match happens to be in WarioWare. I didn't choose it, so I'll bet it was Samus who did that. After all, Pit and Snake don't really seem to know that you're, like, supposed to do stuff for the Microgames. Can't they read? Doesn't Snake have to read stuff all the time? Seems to be girls' night out this time around, with Zelda and Samus messing around with the boys. Sorry I accidentally cut off the victory theme.

Match #2
Ness
Summit
For some reason, the Summit doesn't come up very often in the Basic Brawls. I wonder why. Anyway, I was doing okay until I got the Smash Ball. I had a brain fart and was frantically pressing the jump button unstead of the special move button (C and B with the Nunchuk controls, respectively). It ultimately cost me the match.

Match #3
Sonic
PictoChat
We need more PictoChat too. Especially this wacky song from a game no one outside of Japan has heard of until now, inluding me. That Assist Trophy turned out to be Tingle, who did the slipping thing this time. I had never seen it in action before, so I thought I'd show it to the rest of you: It causes everybody to constantly slip. This, of course, is yet another one of Sakurai's middle fingers to competitive gamers.

Ah, how I love Warioware. It's songs are great, and the minigames are loads of fun. The only this is that I don't pick it as an anti-Final Destination stage anymore, because the more skilled players still play good on it.

[Overhazard]

That's fine with me. It's the Final Destinationers who can't stand it, as they don't understand it, and I win the microgames to give myself advantages.

I sometimes now select Luigi's Mansion to figure out who is Final Destinationing, as well as Skyworld just to annoy them.

Cool matches! Good to see I'm not the only one who enjoys the occasional gimmicky stage over stages such as FD and Battlefield.

Regarding your question about the Summit, I's guessing it doesn't get chosen often because it's impossible to grab onto the ledges which hampers some character's recovery (Ike comes to mind). That and the slippery terrain. Personally, I love the stage to death and choose it from time to time.

[Overhazard]

There must be some grabbable ledges somewhere...It just isn't right for them to not have any, since some characters depend on them.

Are the Ice Climbers still not affected by slippery terrain?

[sehwut]

my nunchuck controls are down on d pad is jump side on dpad is side taunt and up is grab and c is grab and tap to jump is off i find this way to be very effective.

[Overhazard]

Sounds like you mapped the Nunchuk controls to be as close to the Gamecube controller as possible. If it works for you, that's wonderful. I'm used to the default scheme though...I'd probably have trouble getting back to Melee.
