I think you need that friend code shit that Nintendo has been pushing.

I hope they use a system like Pokemon Battle Revolution's. I mean the game itself is pretty severely lacking in a lot of ways, but they've done some stuff with the online that needs to be expanded upon and standardized. You can be randomly matched with other people looking for a match, like with a lot of Nintendo WFC titles, but the good part is that you can trade "Friend Cards" (which basically mean Friend Codes, but it also means you can battle computer-controlled teams with that friend's stats from the last time the card was updated) after a battle. If they do that with Smash, I will have NO PROBLEM with using Friend Codes, other than the silliness of making it per-game instead of per-system.

My knowledge of SSBB is only what has been added to that site since the re-opening, anything before it AFAIK was unconfirmed...
Also I'm too lazy to research something that I can't play yet.

2 = A
1 = B
A ~ L/R (Dodge, Shield)
B ~ Z (Grab)
I'd assume anyway, they feel like a preferred control for me...


I guess the only thing that can't be implemented that the gamecube controller has, is the smash stick shortcut...

The option's there at least, for those who want to try something new.  Nothing wrong with that.

They're focusing on aerial combat so maybe you should be able to jump it. I mean look at how far Mario recovered from in that how to play update.

Although the information on my beloved Metaknight is tiny on this recent update, I really dig the button holding rapid attack he has...
I know it wasn't an update specifically for him but any minor bits of information on him are fine by me.

OH FUCK YES
