    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    There are many places to buy them. This is just one site I found after 10 minutes of searching with google: http://www.electricquarter.com/sbit.htm What you are looking for is the triwing driver. I'm sure you can find at other places online, and that might be cheaper. If you do, please...

    The Big MI Discussion Topic

    Thanks for housing I'm pretty sure I will be coming and driving Bob as well, so we'll be needing some housing for Saturday night. We should be there around 12pm for the friendlies.

    I'm just curious...MLG in Chicago is happening the same dates as Vgames in Detroit...what are your plans on this?

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    It IS a great idea _Star_Fox_101: Since I don't have enough knowledge of electronics to get started on this myself, I can only refer you to the electrical engineer of the Ship of Fools, who is currently working on this type of mod. It's not done yet though; there seems to be a few technical...

    The "Midwest Massacre" Tournament

    Yeah, 4 is too late for a 1-day tourney for me. I would normally not consider going to this tourney anymore, but since I get the feeling that this will be a large tourney, and since that Saturday is part of Thanksgiving break in which I will have more time to spare, I might be able to come to it...

    The "Midwest Massacre" Tournament

    It's looking bleak, but if I come: Iggy, we should play before the tourney. I also need some practice against different Peachs. StarWars, 4 stock 8 minutes sounds good. I'd like to do this before the tournament as well.

    The "Midwest Massacre" Tournament

    I think there is a good chance that I can join in on this huge tournament. And I might bring along some others, but I'm not sure yet. I will be taking full advantage of the SHINE. Star Wars, what's the stock level and the stock time for your challenge?

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    There's got to be a way... Yeah, I haven't looked into fixing loose analogs, although I have opened a loose analog controller and gently pulled out the control stick to see what was inside. There's a stick in the middle that moves up and down, and on either side there are plastic bars that move...

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    Iraqi Head Seeks Arms Oops, I guess the title was a little misleading. Basically, what was meant was that modding the controller makes both wavedashing and powershielding easier; it did not refer to the sequence of wavedashing followed by a powershield. As Supernova said, even after...

    Midwest Challenge! South Bend, IN, August 9th (Snex approved!)

    This was a very successful tournament-- good job running it Kishes; you should definitely make this a serial event. What I liked best was the round robin idea because it was a good way to warm up against the competition. It helped me in preventing bad character choices for the real thing. For...

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    Interesting It might also have depended on what characters you tried to wavedash with. With characters like Marth and Falco, the mod can make wavedashing even harder because it messes up the timing between jump and dodge. This will definitely interfere with your previous timing if you were...

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    I would even go so far as to say that the modded trigger actually makes it harder to L-cancel. With a normal trigger, you can spam L-cancel attempts by slightly pressing the trigger in and then back out. With a modded trigger it's much harder to keep clicking at a fast enough rate. Of course, if...

    Wavedash and powershield a BETTER WAY: a GCN Controller Modification

    Yes, I agree. But it is up to the other players to make a decision: either to stick with their controllers the way the are or to modify them. If they come to the conclusion that a large factor behind their losses is that the opponent used a mod controller, it would be in their best interest to...

    Midwest Challenge! South Bend, IN, August 9th (Snex approved!)

    It's official No joke. You can even put it in the first page with all the details; that should make it official. Edit: This bonus is void should you decide not to allow modified controllers in the tournament. But since this tournament has the snex Seal of Approval, I'm assuming that...

    Midwest Challenge! South Bend, IN, August 9th (Snex approved!)

    Bonus If I don't take 1st place in the 1v1s, $20 to whoever does. (what a moot bonus, it's going to come back to me anyways) I'm also bringing a GC, TV, and a power strip.
