SSBB Thread: IT'S OUT!!!!!!!!!! - Page 67

It does work, you could do it in Melee, too. It's not overly difficult, but it can end up being time consuming, and you do need some luck.

I tried it earlier, after I had gotten to 7 kills with Ike, and I managed to get to 8 with Jigglypuff. The problem is when the Green Alloy's show up. Since they're based off of Kirby, they have 3 recovery jumps. All the rest only have the single jump and they can't grab ledges. So what you do is hold the edge, then jump out and float down and in. If you're lucky, they'll try and spike you and miss horribly. If they fall far enough, they won't be able to recover. The Green Alloy's usually make it back up, though. And if they catch you with a single move, you're gone.

Yeah, I tried it last night and managed to get 8 KOs. The green ones can get stuck under the lip of the stage and fall off, but it's pretty rare. I've actually gotten pretty good at luring the alloys off and making it to the other side of the stage, but the one thing that kills me every time is Jiggly's jumps. What I mean is, even with tap jump disabled, she still jumps when you press up on the joystick, and that always ends up killing me one way or another. I'll get it eventually. It just requires a lot of patience and being careful with the blasted tap jump.

Regarding the Insane Boss Battle challenge, you may have tried this already, but I've heard several people say they beat it by climbing on top of the bosses with Toon Link and dairing them to death.

What do you mean dairing?

Down-air attack. Sorry, it's just easier to use the abbreviations.

ftilt = forward tilt (same with down and up)
fair = forward air (ditto back, down, and up)
fsmash = forward smash (ditto down and up)

EDIT: Okay, so seriously, Smashville has got to be the greatest stage ever. It's just so... perfect. I'm not an Animal Crossing fan at all, but this stage just feels so balanced. I never really liked Final Destination or Battlefield very much, and I know they were the two primary tournament stages, but Smashville feels much more tournament-worthy than those two stages. For one thing, SV is not as long as FD, but I don't think it's quite as short as BF. FD seemed to favor long-ranged and/or fast characters while BF seemed to favor close-range fighters, particularly sword-fighters. SV feels like the perfect balance. It also doesn't have the annoying stationary platforms that BF has which get in the way more than they help, imo. SV just has a single platform that moves just a little bit beyond the length of the stage so that people can use it to make quick getaways. I dunno, it just seems like the perfect tournament stage to me.

Cruel Melee cost me a Wavebird back in the day. I'm already down to one, so I'm not going near that sh*t. Boss Battle? That's the cheapest crap I've ever seen in a game to date. Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever touching that with a ten foot pole. I'd Action Replay the game first.

*Mecha Cow* · 03-20-2008, 04:16 PM

I also did some controller-throwing just now. I hereby retract anything positive I might have ever said about the Subspace Whatever. I am now at a point near the end where for some f*cking reason I have to backtrack through the entire game again. I have no clue why or what I'm supposed to do, because the game doesn't bother to make that clear or explain anything. I quit in frustration after walking in a circle for the umpteenth time.

F*ck this sh*t.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 03-24-2008, 04:20 AM

Anybody who didn't already know the "Legend" of Zelda needs to put Snake against Toon Link in Shadow Moses Island and rapidly do a down taunt. End of story.

Character down taunts are the greatest feature ever.

Great Sea is the best stage in the game.

*Dr. Doom* · 03-25-2008, 04:35 PM

Great Sea is one of my favorites, as well as Lylat Cruise and Frigate Orpheon. Smashville has really grown on me recently, too. I love going there when KK is playing.

Also, on a related note, I really like the stage of the day today. I recreated it as soon as I saw it.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 03-26-2008, 04:37 AM

I've left Stage of the day off because I don't want WiiConnect 24 frying my Wii's graphics card. I'll bag some stages off of IGN's Smash site later and throw them on my SD card.

I know I am not TMB but I will answer this for you, seeing how I am bored! The problem is that WiiConnect24 is constantly active on your Wii, constantly searching for weather stats, or news, or other updates for your console, and it some cases it runs your console too hot, and the graphics card overheats and melts slightly, Leaving you with specs of dead pixels on the screen, and slowly gets worse. Ask Peanut about this, he has had this problem before.

Edit: Finally got Smash Bros. but my wireless USB is not allowing me to access the internet, while my DS can access it fine, so I just purchased the wired USB from Nintendo, so I should be online soon, and hopefully get schooled at this game very soon!

I would have thought that the WiiConnect24 would run on such a low power setting that the heat would be negligible. The graphics card should not even be running. I'm sure it's pretty rare for it to mess up like Peanut's did, but I leave WiiConnect24 off anyway just because it screws up my router's connection to the internet for some reason.

It's not rare, and I'm actually among many people who've had it happen.

The Wii gets hot. Hotter than any other system I own. Try touching yours sometime when it's just sitting in standby mode. The thing is, I had my Wii sitting in standby mode for something like 7 months without touching it. That's what led to an overheating of the casing, which then effected the videocard, and now leaves me with terrible specks, almost like dead pixels, all over the screen when I play.

Jon · 03-26-2008, 02:26 PM

As recall, this was talked of before (and I posted in that talk as well). But my Wii doesn't get very hot (and yes, I have felt it when it's in Standby; and it's warm, sure, but not overly hot).

The Shelf · 03-26-2008, 02:36 PM

Yikes, I'm surprised I hadn't heard of it before. I did start to have a little problem with the music messing up on Guitar Hero 3 after Christmas because people were playing the Wii pretty much non-stop for 2-3 days straight (we turned it off to sleep, though, of course). But I haven't heard of anyone having problems with the standby mode before.

Maybe it's just 'cause you live in Canada, Peanut... I'm kidding, I'm kidding, please don't hate me.
