The official Super Smash Brosh: Brawl! thread

Alright, just finished a lot of multiplayer.

First impressions? it's definitely evolutionary, not revolutionary. But the game is a lot of fun, and the new characters/moves are very well put together. Each of the characters feel very different from each other, and it'll take you a few minutes to really get a good feel for each one; despite this it remains very easy to pick it up and play vs other fighter games. There are quite a few retro stages, and I'm sure there's more I can unlock. In contrast to SSBM, there are no language settings so it was a bit hard to get through menus.

I tried out WiFi, which was very straightforward. We did have to try a few times before we got a connection to the Japanese servers (I imagine they're getting pounded), but once we were connected we had no issues. There was no discernible lag even with two parties in the US and our servers overseas. There's a little white stage with a punching bag to screw around with while your opponent selects their character and votes for which stage they want. We played free for all matches for the most part, my brother played with me on my Wii, my friend played with his roommate on his Wii, and fun was had by all.

If you have a question, feel free to ask.

I'm going to get some sleep, I've got work tomorrow morning.

*Edit*
And the Gamecube controller is definitely the all around favorite way to play the game.
