SUPER SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH BROTHEEEEEEERRRRRRS

[CaffeinePowered]

The Mario Party style mode actually looks kind of fun to play with a group of people. I'm glad the 3DS version didn't really hold back the WiiU version in terms of content other than the roster (if you count the Ice Climbers omission).

Actually from what I read, on the WiiU with 8 player smash, ice climbers broke it

My body is ready.

New balance patch is out, seems to change a bunch of little things.

Wii U version is out, online is 1000000000000x better than the 3DS version, play me motherfuckers.

Finally got to play!!!!!!!! And with a Samus amiibo  Yay!

Did anybody actually get to buy one of the GC controller adapters? My local Gamestop said they sold out of those pretty quickly. Also, I agree the Samus amiibo looked pretty sweet.

The place I went to said they sold out within an hour of the midnight release. Playing with the gamepad isn't bad. Foodies ordered an off-brand adapter, I do not recommend this as it's only one controller port, it plugs into a Wiimote, and has noticeable delays over other methods. I might pick up a pro controller to see what that's like...

Also, Caff and I played a little bit online this morning. The wi-fi is definitely better than on 3DS, but there's still just enough of a delay to throw your spacing off. also in-game VOIP is comically low quality; if we get a community night going then you'll want to have mumble installed in a phone or laptop.

You were having issues with the 3DS online too, right? Maybe you ought to get one of the USB-to-Ethernet adapters for a more stable connection. I've been playing Smash Wii U for a while and I'd say 95% of my matches are seemingly lagless. And I do mean it's unnoticeable, not like the 3DS version.

Connected it, don't perceive a significant difference. Don't get me wrong, I would regard it playable at this point. But I still find I have an easier time with sluggers then precise characters, and I credit that to the network.

i have experienced more smoother connections in smash 3ds than wii u at this point

mostly because when i found a good connection in smash 3ds the game doesn't turn to shit after 3 or 4 matches, while on wii u it starts lagging on and off during the second match with someone

I have a Wii classic controller pro that I'm using currently. It works well enough for the time being (although it did take some getting used to), but I only have one and if I play with others locally I'd like to have my GC controllers available.

Honestly I like these the best, grew up on the snes, played brawl with it, and it works better than the game cube ones for me.

I think this is the route I'm going to go. I'll probably pick up some more classic controllers after my wallet recovers a bit.

Also you can install mumble on your phone?  This changes everything!

I have this for 3DS if its worth anything

[Something Swain]

I got the wii u version now.
Cool.

I am announcing a prize to anyone who can defeat Foodies in a set of 5 (Wii U or 3DS; no items; neutral & counterpick stages). Probably a CSGO skin or a steam game. I'm being serious.

EDIT: Her 3DS's circle pad is having trouble, make that Wii U only.

Maybe next week we could try an inhouse night or something on mumble?
