Delicious tourney*** tears are my drink of choice tonight

No wavedashing, no wavelanding, no L-canceling, Fox is nerfed, Peach is nerfed, Bowser is insane, and the entire game is slowed down.

Peach is nerfed? She was my best character, and I wasn't even that good with her...

Luigi had better be back with a vengeance...

I like how I still don't really understand the whole idea of wave-dashing and L-canceling, nor do I care to know...

I thought Peach wasn't that strong of a character to begin with...

All this talk of the game being slowed down doesn't jive with the people I've talked to who have played it.

I think people are mixing up "slowing down the game" with the added floatiness of the jumps, which were added to improve the aerial game...

I think Brawl will be the best of two worlds; it will be faster than SSB 64 but a tad slower than Melee (thanks to the floaty jumps).

I imed with Windy for a brief amount of time before he went back down to play some more.  Everything I've heard has been positive.  Wii Remote only and Classic Controller are the only control modes available.  Build is identical to the one seen in screens of previous playable events, so there aren't any new characters playable.

From what I hear is the event is quite small, they are getting a ton of time, and they are going to have some detailed impressions, including some insights into smash attacks that he didn't even share with me yet.

Do you know if they could play around with the options? I would love to hear what you can modify in the game!

From impressions at the Media Summit, it sounded like the settings were pretty much grounded...Which makes sense because, well, it's a demo...

...and just to be clear, I assume you tested these techniques, right?

There might be a guy named Smash_Brother there, too, but don't trust him. He's a filthy, rotten bastard.

Are you pulling my leg? The site doesn't work.

And Bill. I typed in Smashboards and nothing came up. That's why I was so confused.

I'm not pulling your leg, but the site does go down frequently.

The site is where most of the SSB tourney crowd exists, hence why there's probably a LOT of crying over there right now about the lack of advanced techs in Brawl.
