The future of SSB (Dec. 9th 2013)

[YPrrrr]

i really think that it does have the feel of a new smash game
it is way different from melee even though it adopted primarily melee mechanics
recoveries are way easier and edgeguarding is less effective overall which changes things a lot

The last two sound like brawl features

But again, no new characters

[TooB]

Just dl'd project m 2.6 today.
I like how zero suit and the pokemon are justselectable characters

[Wrench]

nope! you just need an sd card and then you run it through the stage builder in brawl. takes a couple minutes and is super easy to get going

Saaaaaaawheeeeet!

Could find this out through Google, but is there a brand of SD Card you specifically recommend? I admit I don't know a whole lot about them.

[strongbad]

if you want to use the method where you dont need to mod your wii get an sd card that is less than 2gb

[Hiro]

i'll give it a try  maybe

[bluaki]

Huh, why does it have to be less than 2GB? Does Brawl only support non-SDHC?

I remember that Wii did get a system update adding some sort of SDHC support, but I don't know exactly what that affects.

I installed homebrew channel on my Wii way back when Twilight Hack was the only notable method to do so and have never had to reinstall it since then. I haven't installed homebrew channel on my Wii U Wii mode yet and the system transfer didn't copy it over.

Sandisk, Kingston, and Transcend are the major three brands I always see. Most other brands should be good too. Quality is rarely something you actually care about when it comes to SD cards unless you're doing something bottlenecked by I/O speed.

yeah i was wondering the same thing actually- i had just checked the project m website for reference and it said less than 2gb is ideal
might still work with more than that but idk really

[Geno]

I don't see the point of this at all.

[Patrick Stickles]

it's to make brawl more like melee because brawl is seen as a competitive failure

[Hiro]

it seems like it's evolved past that into more of just a  fan-improved version of brawl (with more melee similarities but also just new ways to keep the game fresh)

[Patrick Stickles]

i dunno if you follow either competitively but it's more like melee in the sense of the physics engine. that was the original purpose anyway - brawl took out all the stuff that made melee competitive (sakurai kind of did this intentionally, he liked the idea of keeping it a fun party game), so they worked with the physics engine until it started to resemble melee more.

but you are right in the sense that brawl did add stuff to the game in terms of character moves, so they made hybrids of all those movesets into project m



it's really a melee 1.5 in that sense, but that was what the competitive scene was looking for out of brawl (and did not receive)

[Hiro]

yes i am aware

[strongbad]

3.0 just hit
here's a dl link (website is probably going to be down for a while due to traffic and shit)
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/r4nca2sv6fcqx/3.0%20Mirror%20%5BOff-Site%5D

i really think that everyone who is into smash at all should try this
more of an upgrade than melee to brawl was imo, even from a non-competitive standpoint

but if you guys (hirotyler) still want to be stubborn and ignore an amazing game just because it wasn't made by nintendo then it is your loss

I AM SO STOKED WHY WONT IT DL FASTER
so stoked to fuck shit up with kirby and olimar omgomgomgomgomg

[Snowy]

I just want to have fun.

[strongbad]

then play project m 3.0

they even added new items (one that puts your character into turbo mode) and tweaked existing items to make them better for you plebeians

EDIT:
sorry, i'm done trying to force project m on people

it just really bothers me that people flip shit over new smash games, and that is what project m is
just because it isn't made by nintendo doesnt mean that it is of any less quality or any less interesting
just because it is modeled after melee's physics doesn't mean that there aren't new mechanics that give it a new feel
it especially bothers me that the people who seem to have the most against pm haven't played it, even though installing it and playing it is extremely easy and free (even though they would happily drive to gamestop and pay $60 for new smash made by nintendo)
if anything, people's reluctance to project m just shows me that people only really care about idolizing nintendo and their characters, instead of the actual game being played (whether it be for competitive or casual reasons).

This is the last time that I'll be defensive about it
