>tfw you're too shit for Melee tournaments
>tfw none of your friends want to play with you because you're way too good for them
>tfw you can't beat anybody online

error 160-0103 or something? Happening to a lot of people.

It's apparently a hardware error (kinda like what happened with several Wii systems being unable to play Brawl - you'll either have the rare problem or you won't).  It's not specifically Smash 4 that's causing it, because it's been sporadically been reported since the WiiU's release.

It's a "you get it or you don't" error though - if you haven't seen it yet, it's not going to happen to you.

[Suikama]

this is the best thing

That is amazing! Jiggilypuff is having a grand time on the sides.

Also what the hell is this? Have I stumbled onto a part of the Smash community that I never knew about?

MLG Shulk's Really Feeling It!

I don't even....

This is the new "greatest thing ever" to me for now.

It's specifically smash it affects though; loading up bayonetta's glorious HD ass was pretty funny in my living room.

[Suikama]

seriously this game is the best

i cant wait to try this with a charles barkley mii

[Esoterica]

Dang.

The best part about that setup is, even if Yoshi didn't stop shielding the punch is unblockable anyway.  That's a really innovative use of jab though.

[Suikama]

wait what how did he cancel jabs into punch

[Esoterica]

He did jabs until the pushback shoved him off the ledge and then he immediately punched :V

[Kilgamayan]

I finally got to play some proper 8-Way Smash last night/this morning and I must say that I have been waiting a long time to be able to play Smash and have no fucking clue what's going on :V

[Spotty Len]

We played some 8-player Smash while being drunk yesterday, and that was freaking glorious.

Especially on standard Battlefield. And with the only item activated being Smash Ball.

[Moogs Parfait]

I finally got a chance to play this game.  I've experienced some ridiculous skll rot and I don't think I'll get it back.

Also holy bugs I hate the air-dropping game & watch stage

>Family gets me Smash 4 a week ago
>Price of special edition is just fine
>Family is still working on Christmas present, ask for gamecube controller adapter because I want optimal method to play Smash
>Adapter running into 100-dollar price range

GOD DAMMIT NINTENDO STOP UNDERPRODUCING ;-;

I caved and bought a Wii U (the $200 repackage deal was too sweet to ignore) and Smash 4.  Then today I bought a lovely Zelda and cool looking Little Mac Amiibo.  Really curious how these things will work.  I'm fascinated by evoling AI, so much more than I am with real humans, heh.

I actually find it more difficult to beat my own Zelda amiibo than my human friends. (whom are pretty hardcore Smash players, as I have become via association and exposure) For the most part, the AI takes the first 20 - 30 levels trying to figure out how to play based off of your play, and spends the remainder levels learning exactly how to kick your ass. I personally think they're a phenomenal learning tool in improving your Smash skills, as even after they hit level 50, they keep adapting to your playstyle to abuse your weaknesses.

At least, they certainly would be, up until they start deciding to resort to the most scrubbish tactic of just constantly spamming roll dodges, QUEENZELDY!

[Schezo]

Can I delete the amiibo once it gets to that stage to keep him pure?

[Patorikku]

Can I delete the amiibo once it gets to that stage to keep him pure?

I think you can press L + R + X at the amiibo menu to reset your progress, save for the name and colour of the amiibo, but I can't confirm. The core idea to keep it from doing that, though, is to just keep from teaching it to dodge. So uh, yeah no, you can't reliably evade it, so remember that L+R+X thing. :V

[Esper]

I like the idea of a friend that always knows how to kick your ass.

Also, I love how Nintendo tries to motivate kids to walk (Play coins, Pok?walker from Pok?mon HGSS) rather than sitting around the house and doing nothing with other people, yet it's endorsing (and supporting) lonely neethood by giving you a friend that can always beat you as badly as you beat it. Make up your minds! DX

[Sparrow Song]

At least they are catering to both type of them. 

Got my Amis to level 40 in just about 5 games.  They are already destroying level 9 CPUs.  Crazy how fast they learn.

[Suikama]

Megaman infinite found

patch one out and another pops up in its place

[Suwako Moriya]

Is that really an infinite? Maybe I haven't studied the physics enough yet, but that seemed like Villager could have rolled away any of several times, or blocked the Mega Uppercut.

You cannot tech or roll from a footstool.

[Suikama]

when you get footstooled you can't tech the landing, and if you get hit while you're down you automatically get forced to stand up and there's a brief window of vulnerability while getting up. If Megaman messes up his timing though you can escape, otherwise it's legit

e: lol apparently you need rng for this to work since the metal blade has a 50% chance of vanishing every time it's dropped. So this is not practical in the slightest.

[Esoterica]

Ledgegrab invincibility doesn't start until frame 2.

Also Neo's Sheik at S@X last night, hnnnng.  His first ever sm4sh tournament and he clowned Boss so hard he gave up and killed himself.

[Drake]

Fucking Lucario though. I'm salty about that GF for Neo's sake (because it's probably literally impossible for Neo to be salty about anything).

[Suikama]

huh, this explains why an rare occasions people have hit me out of my up b with a downsmash. I always thought they were somehow hitting me right before I grabbed the edge but while testing that never seemed to work. Turns out it's not before but at the same time :V

[Sparrow Song]

Speaking of Amiibos, hear about The Tale of Waveshine?  3rd place in a tournament.  Apparently Amiibo AI is being praised as the best fighter AI ever made, since it can learn.  Personally, I like teaming up with mine instead of killing (or trying to kill) them.  The thought of Zelda and myself fighting side by side excites me.   I do plan on grabbing more amiis eventually though.  Thinking a speed ranger like Pit, and a heavy hitter type, like Ike.  Skip a couple monthly visits to fast food and grab some amiibros instead.  Thanks to working retail, I can buy it as soon as it ships, since I am the one stocking them.  :3

it's not really fair though since amiibos cheat :V
