    Is fighting against CPU's and treating them as real players a legitimate way to practice?

    Sorry for bumping this but it was a discussion I was holding elsewhere, as I'm one of those unfortunates who had Brawl but couldn't nab a device to play it, thus I resorted to using the game on Dolphin Emulator (PC). Not only was I stuck playing with a keyboard (which is quite awkward) but...

    Worst Super Smash Bros Brawl video you've ever seen (Post a Link)

    Interesting - Never knew that, though my computer seems to record pretty OK (stable 60 FPS on moderate to good graphical settings without any hoggish background apps on the go) so I never really looked into it. Does my video look to be in worse quality than others on Dolphin? If so, even more...

    Worst Super Smash Bros Brawl video you've ever seen (Post a Link)

    Probably my own videos. After playing SF4 for years against other players, I know and respect that people don't want to watch players beating up CPU - Which was all I could do when I got Brawl on Dolphin (which has limited to no multiplayer functionality as it's very 'picky' and broken - It's...

    Can CPU's Teach You Anything (v2)

    Well that's how I try to view it - I mean, by the time I'd get to play other players, the newer game will be out (likely) so I see it as a way to keep me interested until that point, then maybe getting involved (human-wise) at that point - So I've reduced myself to acknowledging SSBB as...

    Brag About Yourself And Your Best Character!

    I can only play Brawl on Emulator - And I can only play Bowser... This makes me the unchallengeable koopa-king of CPU because I'm stuck in this alternate emulated zone where no players can join me - So I win by default. CPU can't even dodge 20mile high Bowser Slams - They fear the keyboard...

    First Character

    Bowser is the only one I play - Fell in love with him as a first pick, just my kind of style - Plus I like him as a character anyways (Mario games in general), besides my preference for both villains as well as a good underdog, preference of heavy-weight characters on top of absolutely loving...

    Notice this about Brawl's AI?

    Indeed, script will perform inhumane stuff, reactionary - But the other things tend to be a bit more mechanical, such as who they focus on. Seeing as I can only play vs CPU, I've noticed a few things along the way - For one, their attention does tend to shift if you abuse ledge grabs - I...

    Which stage do you love to fight on?

    Final Destination... All day, every day. Simple layout and a bad-ass theme to boot. Love it.

    Why do you main that character?

    I have this issue where I fall in love with the most peculiar of things that make me stubbornly adhere to one character and one only... It could be anything from an animation, sound effect or something very minor. As an example: For SF4 it was the scumbag laughter of Balrog for his headbutt -...

    Can CPU's Teach You Anything (v2)

    Hi folks, It's been about a year since I've visited here before (Was referred to it through SRK where I used to hang out during my SF4 days) and given my 'situation' (will explain below) I made an old thread asking if CPU could teach a player anything. The thread led to heated debate while I...

    Favorite Matchup?

    Bowser vs Pokemon Trainer... Just... lol... Makes Bowser feel disgustingly good being able to chain grab or chain BSlams all day :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8-i2FJn3JA

    Can VS CPU Teach You Anything?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKWOmicTXVg Me failing with DDD - I find him far more awkward to play than Bowser and don't enjoy him half as much. DDD requires a lot of backward moves it seems and that takes practice all in itself, plus with Keyboard I find it weird that sometimes going...

    Can VS CPU Teach You Anything?

    Ah, that explains it then - Happens again in the same movie at 2:15 - Never knew about it so I thought it was a weird bug or whatnot, thanks for clearing it up ^^

    Can VS CPU Teach You Anything?

    Come to think of it, in above movie (Will relink here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCFSBgjwSRg) at the 1:36 mark I think it showed it - It seems to be when you execute a move but also take a hit. I went to try and dash//headbutt Mario but he hit me, yet I still performed the attack and did so...
