    EVO Japan Titles Announced!

    Thank you, and I understand where you're coming from. Everyone wants their favorite game to be up there. It's unfortunate, but I don't think you could convince the FGC over there to change their minds. Still, I think EVO Japan's going to be legendary and it would still be totally worth the...

    EVO Japan Titles Announced!

    I just posted a comment about this but I'll say it again: Melee isn't part of the EVO line-up because it isn't respected dude. It's just that the Melee scene in Japan is painfully tiny and it'd be a waste (loss of money/you could have a more popular game replace it) to have it be part of the...

    EVO Japan Titles Announced!

    If anyone's curious as to why there's no Melee, it's because Melee is no where near as big in Japan as it is in America (or Canada, etc.). The scene there for Melee is extremely small, so it'd be pretty pointless to add it in when barely anyone would register. Whereas, if you put another, more...

    How to get into Smash Bros?

    It kinda depends: If you're looking to get into Smash as in, get into it competitively, then getting the Wii U version is probably your best bet. If you just wanna get into the game in general and stuff, then I'd say the 3DS version is fine. The vast majority do play the Wii U version, but...

    How do you feel about Brawl? (Poll)

    I liked Brawl - it was my first ever Smash game and it's what got me into playing fighting games competitively in the first place. Back then I didn't care about anything technical though so, I can't say whether or not the game's actually good in that sense, but it'll always hold a special place...

    Controller question

    There's no problem with them at all (as far as I know); a lot of people simply prefer to use Gamecube controllers. I think it's because Gamecubes are basically considered the tournament-standard controller because they plug directly into the adapter, whereas the controllers you own (they sound...

    Broken Controller (Please help)

    This happened to my Gamecube a couple weeks ago. I've since gotten a new one. Tbh, it depends on how long you've owned the controller and how good the quality of it was in the first place. If you've owned it for some time, that part of it might've just finally conked out (sometimes parts of...

    New to Smashboards! Wii U Luigi main excited to grow!

    Welcome! Nice to have you here, my dude! :D Trust me, you'll have a blast playing in real tournaments. They're a little intimidating at first but after a little while you get used to the feel of them and they become super fun and addicting.

    Central California Smash Sets Up Donation Drive for Player in Coma

    Car accidents are terrifying. I've been in one and they're no joke. The fear and horror they must've all felt, especially after seeing Exo in such bad shape... I'm so sorry this happened to all of them and I'll be praying profusely for Exo's recovery. Every Smasher is a member of one big family...

    What are the most HATED characters?

    I don't hate almost any character so long as the player that plays them is good. I actually really like playing against genuinely good :4bayonetta: or genuinely good fellow :4cloud:mains, because it helps me have confidence that I'm not the only player who's playing that character because I...

    Smash Wii U Losing motivation to play competitively, but can't pull myself away from the community.

    It sounds kinda like you only want to play if you win. The thing is, if you all you can think about when playing a game is that you'll never be a pro player/you'll never win a major tournament or whatever, you're going to start losing motivation. Heck I know many really good players, but they've...

    Why Do You Main Who You Do?

    I main both :4cloud: and :4corrin:, with Corrin being my go to if I'm not doing so well with Cloud, or if I just feel like playing him. I main :4cloud: because I like his overall character. I've always been attracted to characters with some kind of projectile and good range (this is also why I...

    Dealing With Rage

    While I never really raged I did get insanely depressed when I'd lose because I thought I was, well, y'know. Really bad. Which in all fairness I was, but moping about it wasn't going to help me get better. And that's the same mentality you've gotta have when it comes to raging. The more you...

    few questions on gamecube controllers

    No problem! My pleasure. ^_^ Yes! Controller Chaos has amazing custom Gamecube controllers that are really, really good quality. They have a Link one available too, so that's even better in your case! Here's a link to their website...
