Aw man, I haven't fought Raph in ages.

If I was feeling better I'd take you up on that challenge for sure, but I got a nasty cold and I'm pretty sure you could 3-stock me right now. *cough*

I think we should use this thread for Ness Wifi Doubles also, sometime in the near future. Those are just too good. :love:

I haven't seen any discussion as to how latency tends to affect ness or other online factors as they relate to him, so perhaps that discussion could go here.

The latency affects my ability to PKT2 accurately and time bairs. I never play as Ness on wifi.

I don't know about a blue-dot connection, though. I've only ever had up to green.

After a while playing shaky (probably an hour or so) the initial screen lag was no problem, but we still had a bit of input lag. I think regardless there's always going to be the input lag.

input lag is the latency. When you press a button, it gives you a set number of frames before the input has an effect. In other words, slow moves become pseudo fast, at least in terms of reaction. The jerky kind of lag comes and goes with internet connection.

Ness's bat is better in wifi because people shouldn't be able to react to it; prediction plays a bigger role since most moves can't be avoided/shielded on reaction.

I play with the ethernet cord through the adapter on my wii, if that is what you're asking Carvac, and it feels about the same (though I have crappy internet :S)

@ Levitas: Agreed.

Raph, I wanted to play you last night. The Wii was actually working for once and I saw you were on. Unfortunately that didn't happen. I was looking for people who could own me. Fortunately I found someone, but I needed more players after that. I was up till 5:00 am.

Oh man, I think I was playing on Anyone's at that time.

I'll try and keep refreshing this thread.

Also, no, I promise my Ness can't own anything anymore, lol. I kinda want him back because Peach annoys the hell out of my Zelda. >: (

Your player skill doesn't really matter to me, so if it bothers you and you don't wish to play, that's fair as well.

I won't judge you based off of that.

I'm gonna start up my WiFi now. Will be on for hours. Feel free to join. They don't have to be 1 v 1.

I'll be up for a brawl in 30 min if anyone's interested. I'm more interested in practicing using PKMN Trainer than a Ness ditto, but I'm up for anything.

...I can't sleep.

If anyone else is still awake/lives in a time zone where it's reasonably early, I'll do 1 vs. 1s for a few hours.

Anyone? :ness:

I'm absolutely dying for a Ness ditto. Anyone wanna brawl me?

I find it funny that battle threads always seem to die on the Ness boards. Are we all afraid of getting better, or are we just scared of EB 360 and Ref?

Yikes. How far apart are we posting?

Well, I'm up for a brawl at the moment. So anyone there?
