I was kinda disappointed by today's update, since I usually expect more on Fridays. Ah well.

-Sonic's moves don't have much knockback and he isn't as good as expected. Hardest learning curve.

So even if I took the time to get used to his style, he still sucks? Ouch.

Yeah, missiles were weakened and so was her charged B. It charges faster from what I've heard though.

A new advanced technique has already been supposedly found. It's called the Ink Drop, named after a Brawl player who goes by the name of 'Ink.' How it's done is basically like a dash dance (where you hit left and right real fast over and over making the player move left and right in place) but instead of hitting the opposite direction right away, you just wait until you get to the point where your character would do a longer turn around animation and then hit back, causing your character to fall (drop) in place. The Yoshi in this vid does the Ink Drop (the first part of it, don't mind him getting back up).

However, although your character falls, you can cancel the fall with anything, from a smash, to a jab, to a grab, or even a roll like the Yoshi in this gif does. Basically you can do it to get behind the enemy and then instantly attack out of it.

Don't know how useful and practical it is, but the guys at E for All say it has potential. We'll see though.

Luigi confirmed (although this guy doesn't even look like he knows what he's talking about):

Sonic!?! OMFG no wai! lol ah I expected it, When Sonic came out, it spread faster than gossip did in my school. Besides, in that video, in the game play a smash ball was floating around and no one tried to get it. I mean WTF man, that's a instakill

So is ZS-Samus confirmed as just an after-effect of the final smash?

I read that getting a smash ball would change her to regular Samus, but I thought you could only get one smash ball per match, assuming the two of them are the same character.

I guess I'm just asking: Is ZS-Samus selectable?

EDIT: Just thought I'd mention that since the Lil Mac update, Punch-Out! (one of them) has moved to like 6th place on the Wii's virtual console.

I'm glad it's slower than melee, hopefully it will play a bit more like old smash without the clunkyness.

Well if you could play as her all the time, it would sorta defeat the purpose of a final smash.
