[up] I actually think Greninja's down-taunt has priority over some aerials if they happen to touch the fountains while doing said aerial.

Plus Greninja can actually cancel a taunt with Shadow Sneak, which is pretty hard to see coming at the ledge, especially with the camera angles.

I just know that if something actually comes out of this I'm going to be amazed.

I've been meaning to experiment with down-taunt more... =D

I was trying to play Brawl a few hours ago, and man, I completely sucked.

It's easier for me to go back to 64 and Melee after playing Wii U, unlike Brawl, what gives?

Just played a little Smash 64 and I forgot so much it's like I never played it. No smash holding, no air dodging, no walking with crates...and everything is so sharp.

But the Ray Gun is so much more vicious...

I was visiting the Olimar boards to ask for help figuring out how to deal with him with Greninja and while I had Olimar in mind I made a new headcanon:

Olimar hates Greninja because he keeps eating his Pikmin without him noticing.

I mean, really, Greninja is as close as we'll get to Wollywogs and other such enemies in Pikmin. I can totally imagine Greninja preying on them tongue

Fan-art of Greninja doing a belly flop on Pikmin is something I really want to see, I'd even do it myself if I knew how to draw Greninja.

Does Olimar hate Captain Falcon for what happened at Subspace Emissary?

I think he'd dislike using the Fire Flower because it's like a Pikmin to him.

I'm not too much of a fan of the competitive community, but I sneaked around the Smash subrredit. Oh boy, that Project M drama is strong.

I'm all honesty, maybe it would've been better for Nintendo to hit that mod with a C&D before it grew as much as it did now, thus becoming a massive legal clusterfuck.

Why would you C&D a mod of all things? That mindset is detrimental, they wouldn't gain anything out of that.

I don't think they C&D it, they just didn't want it at Apex I think.

Okay, that wasn't the correct wording. I'm just saying, that at this point it's become a bit of problem.

One of the main issues with that mod in particular is that it's not only modifying a Nintendo property, which of course can be defended as can any other mod, but it's playing with a game that is in and of itself quite a copyright hurdle, with characters across a lot of properties.

Pokémon is technically a Nintendo series, yet getting the rights to use the characters can be quite problematic; and let's not even get started on the third parties.

When a mod like that becomes bigger and has greater exposure, it becomes harder and harder for the creator to not take an official standing in it. And like I said, with a game like Smash you're not only arguing a point about Nintendo not defending its property (which, again, can be argued as just a harmless mod which Nitendo could let slide), but you're also dealing with the properties of the other parties involved. The bigger the mix, the more massive the legal hurdles.

Honestly, I'm reading a few threads in the subreddit and I can't tell what's actually happening due to all the people jumping to conclusions and/or not reading various information (tweets, etc) comprehensively. It also hasn't helped that the subreddit has been really volatile since APEX started.

So can someone here explain what's going on? I'm mighty confused at the moment. From what I've gathered, someone that's prolific in the PM community made a certain tweet regarding the lack of PM's presence at APEX (including no one in that community so much as mentioning it), and the whole drama thing sprouted form there...

And some of what I'm reading are telling me that the reddit is jumping to conclusions, which isn't unusual.

EDIT:Made a mistake with the second link, this is the one I meant.

Endorsing a mod is something you shouldn't expect. However, a mod is a non-profit activity. I don't see how making a mod is anymore different than making using certain skins when playing; your copy your rules.

As I said, when a good dozens of thousands of people (?) are using and following said mod, and being vocal about it for several years, it becomes harder and harder to chalk it up to "your copy, your rules" anymore. This becomes worse when it's not only your own properties on the line, but also those of others.

Had a funny run yesterday where my best performance in For Glory came when i hit the random button and got Link, though i posted more victories than in Sunday's For Fun run, ironically.

I also got the Metroid challenge in Smash Tour tongue. Totally dominated that run as well; it's much like Mario Party, you can get screwed over by luck, but once you get all the rules down, you can hedge against that luck as much as you can.

I feel this is kind of a shameless question, but I think I'd rather ask it sooner than later.

Does anyone here happen to have only the 3DS version of Smash, and not have it registered to Club Nintendo, nor planning to?

I have the Wii U version registered, so if I register the 3DS one, they'll give us the Mewtwo DLC codes for free.

Will I be able to register both games if I join Club Nintendo, or am I just better off saving up to download Mewtwo on the Wii U?

Yeah, you can register both games and you'll get the Mewtwo codes. His promotion ends in March.

You gotta register to Club Nintendo, and then use the CN codes both games came with to register them. They'll send you the codes via mail, and for the soundtrack you gotta give your adress (if you are not a sneaky weasel that's claiming to live in the US because he wanted free Wind Waker :| )
