[Yaka]

i like his reviews, even when as in the case of smash bros i disagree on soem points. also the foowup to that review must be watched as well ninty fan bois are nutters tbh

 

[PLightstar]

Loved the line, 'I am not a fanbois' ..... yes you are! lol

Still sat on the fence with SSB, Think I may get Okami instead and buy SSB second hand in a few months time.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

SSB rules. Does anyone know if they plan to do a DS version?

okami is good just wish they added some extras and perhaps added the bits left out of the ps2

The ZP SSBB review was spot on tbh.

The first one was fun...for a while - this one is just confusing and dull

Let teh button mashing begin!

 

[Mophead]

I cant seem to play WiFi, its like theres no one at all playing prandom wifi games ?

 

[Nate]

Added you Mop, I'm on 0044-4268-3880

 

[Mophead]

cools, add you to.

I've still not managed to get any public WiFi games at all though - i don't get it :/

 

[Ch3tan]

We are all avoiding you Mop





Hmm.. Could it be something to do with your router? Are the ports that the Wii needs open?

 

[Nate]

I get the same issue, works fine for other games like Mario Kart Wii.

 

[PLightstar]

I might pick this up later, never owned a SSB game before should be a blast for a little while.

 

[Mophead]

Yep, no problems at all playing Mario Kart, can get any number of random games.

With SSBB it seems to connect to nintendos wifi service fine (in fact it even told me it was downloading a new map or something yesterday when I tried), it lets me pick a character and select a map, but then it just sits waiting for other players indefinately - theres me beating on a punch bag on my own.

 

[Mophead]

Well, I finally found some other people complaining of a similar thing:

View topic - Why is it taking Brawl so long? - Official Nintendo Magazine

I wonder if, unlike mario kart, they've done something stupid and only let you play against people in the same country, reducing the playing population?

Finally got round to playing this properly this weekend. It's okay, but I'm not enjoying the nunchuck and remote as a control. Think I may dig out the gamecube controller.

aye when my mate brought it round i used the GC control much much better.

great game as well was loving the kirby beating

 

[Mophead]

I found some own brand gamecube style controllers in zavvi for £7 each, they are working a treat.

A local shop wanted to charge me £15 for one manky second hand nintendo brand one! Pikeys!

 

[Yaka]

shame on ninty for not giving use proper wireless version of wavebird controller on wii.
