POSTED AGAIN -
@Zelenal: I could never tell the difference in FPS even after being subject to the placebo effect due to these sites listing which is which. It would be far better, certainly more fair, if these sites just showed two videos and asked the visitor which is which. But those websites never do that.
"What's out there? What's waiting for me?"Basically, it lets you use aerial moves sooner after leaving the ground, so you can hit grounded opponents with less telegraphing of your attack.

I have a message from another time...The only 30 Frame-Per-Second character that really distracts me is Nintendog, because it takes up the whole screen.
Well, it's basically true. Admittedly, I don't use it a lot myself but I'm also not a tourney player. However, as characters with a strong air game like Pikachu, I can lay down a lot more punishment if I do use it.
Some characters simply have a poor approach when on the ground. The short hop lets you overcome that problem.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!Dangerously close...I don't even know.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Dangerously close to what? I'm not saying you need the short hop in order to play Smash Bros correctly. I'm saying that it's an incredibly useful (most of the time) and very basic technique that is needed for high level play.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!High level play = Comes Naturally to me...so it doesn't seem that way.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.The short hop was incredibly difficult to reliably perform in Melee (though not nearly as much as wavedashing), but Brawl made it a lot easier. I hope it's easier in SSB 4 than in Melee.
"What's out there? What's waiting for me?"@Zelenal: Huh. Well then. I had no idea sites like that existed.
I just did some matches against a single level 1 CPU to actually try out some of the items in peace, and now that I'm really paying attention to it, the Assists do seem really choppy. I expected it to be practically indistinguishable since the eye can only process so many "frames" in the first place. So, is 60 FPS particularly high compared to most movies and such? It's hard to appreciate on the 3DS screen because of its size, but based on that site you linked to, the 60 FPS ball seemed very smooth and easy on the eyes, while I often have a lot of trouble with everything seeming blurry when there's a lot of action going on on a screen.
Also, while we're on the subject of evil advanced techniques, how exactly does that new landing lag cancel thing work, again? Supposedly you can cancel any aerial move into a ground-move now, right? Or am I misremembering that?
That's actually not true; the part about what the eye can process. Studies the US Air Force conducted years ago showed that the actually limit was much higher than that.
Also, all films (with one exception) are shot at 24 fps.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!Film and most TV dramas are recorded at 24 fps- It would be 60, but after a glut of low-rent sitcoms and gameshows immediately flooded the airwaves after camcorders and such were introduced, most audiences were trained to think "60fps live-action looks cheap".

I sure said that!![]()
That was a long time ago, though. The audiences now have no reason to think that. In fact, a lot of us are seeing just how smooth 60 fps look so, hopefully, it won't be much longer until films get their act together. Especially now that films can be stored digitally so space shouldn't be an issue.
To you, maybe. To me, no.

Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!Water on the camera was neat the first few times I saw it but now I don't really care for it. However, such effects should certainly be used for things like In-Universe Camera films.
