It works on wi-fi too, so we can play online.

If you don't know what it is, I oughta post a trailer

 

[Sean]

I downloaded it a couple months ago and I must say, its amazing.

 

[Dogenzaka]

Yeah but this is the new demo release with 29 characters instead of like 10 and more stages and a year's worth of tweaks since demo 1.

 

[Sean]

Lol ironically enough I was just playing the first demo not even ten minutes ago. I'll scoop this one up sometime tomorrow. Marth combos ftw

Downloaded. Tinkered around with some stuff for roughly about half an hour now.

They did a great job with this, everything flows really well so far. I may very well invite some friends over to play later this week.

Edit: Charizard is kinda scary in this.

 

[Dogenzaka]

Charizard is a motherfucking beast in this. I had a friend who liked Charizard before and now I'm having a hard time even approaching him. It's good though. Can't wait to see what they do with Squirtle and Ivysaur.

I'd be totally interested in this if it came out a lot sooner. It's been way too long and it's not even finished yet. It definitely appeals to homosexual hardcore competitive smash players, but I don't see many casual fans picking this up as a lot of the fun that comes from smash is how gay it is.

 

[Dogenzaka]

^ I'm not competitive and I love it. I can't wavedash for my fucking life, but everything works better in Project M. Everything is smoother and more fluid. The cast is so balanced now I feel capable of holding my own with almost any character. It's amazing.

 

[Sean]

This has been the only game me and my friends have been playing for the past couple days. It's so much fun and despite the full cast not being there yet it's still addicting and smooth as ever.

 

[Dogenzaka]

^ Seriously. My friends and I have been playing this every chance we get. It's like we pick up a new character and we're like "Oh shit...Link is good."...."Oh shit....GANONDORF is good..."...."Oh shit, Ness is amazing!!"...."Oh shit, Peach is incredible".......I can't even decide who to main sometimes. This project has made everyone SO GOOD. And the combat is so fluid and functional. It's unbelievable.

Wait wait wait, wait. My only question is, what ever happened to Brawl+? Supposedly, that was Brawl with Melee physics. It also allowed you to customize pretty much everything from skins, to stages, to movesets, to music. I never downloaded it because you needed to hack your Wii.

My only gripe with this is that they haven't included Diddy yet. I am glad to see Fox return to his former "God" tier glory. Noticed Falco has his old playing style back.

Really wished my Wii was able to play Brawl now . I'd be playing this in a heartbeat if it was able to.

I want this so bad D:

Hope they release a PAL version Soon...

How is the wi-fi when you play online, is it still just as crummy as Brawl's was originally (and by that I mean close to unplayable). I wouldn't be shocked if it was since you are still using Nintendo's Wii to go online, but still. I'd like to play with someone, but IDK who...xP

 

[Sean]

I'd be down to play online but as you said, the regular brawl was nearly unplayable. Which basically keeps me off of that option.

 

[Hero]

I don't know. In a game where literally a fraction of a second can either win you or cost you the match, online play doesn't seem right. You gotta take lag into account. I'd be severely pissed if I lost a match because my smash attack failed to hit while my opponents did.

 

[Sean]

Severe lag. Which is why I'm pretty content on just playing locally.

 

[Hillboy]

I just saw this on Youtube! I'm gonna try it out soon. Does it alter your Brawl forever? Like if I take the SD card out it will be like I never put it in the first place.

 

[Sean]

Even if you have the SD card in you'd still be able to play the regular brawl. (Aside from creating levels)

Ok cool. this gives me a reason to play this game again

Brawl+ was never Brawl with true Melee physics....it was just trying to make Brawl more balanced. Project M is a full-on attempt to basically make Melee 2.

I play online with my friend who lives in another city. Sometimes there's very slight lag, but usually not any noticeable lag (for a casual player like me). It works fine unless you competitively, absolutely need to play with zero lag inbetween frames. In which case it doesn't work well compared to local.

The only times I ever played Brawl online were at launch (when it was terrible) and recently (when it actually works quite well).

I just saw this on Youtube! I'm gonna try it out soon. Does it alter your Brawl forever? Like if I take the SD card out it will be like I never put it in the first place.

It only activates when the SD card is in your Wii and you go to stage builder mode. Otherwise, it doesn't activate. But if you leave your SD card in while trying to play regular Brawl, it'll freeze up, so take out the SD card when you're not going to use it.
