It covers more area, but it probably does less damage. Sounds fair to me.
Sounds fair if you're playing a 4-player match.  If it's 1-on-1 then the extra area damage is worthless and Mario would be at a disadvantage if the attack is weaker than others.


Even in a 1-on-1 match, the wider area means he has a better chance of hitting his opponent.

Again, this is all hypothetical. I'm assuming it's possible to somehow "miss" with an attack like Link's final smash.

I think it's funny how "Mature" is 17+ and "Adults only" is 18+, like there's some huge mental transformation that people go through in that one year.

The "Sing & Dance" mode is pretty difficult. It's hard to focus on two things at once.

I tried it once and never again. But I'm not a DDR fan, so if people enjoy DDR, they might get a kick out of this.

What could be more accessible to an expansed audience than madly smashing things with a hammer? It's what the Wiimote was born to do!

Perhaps this is an indication that Nintendo plans to update the Mii Channel with additional features?


No.

At first I was thinking "oh, not another game that uses Mii-like characters that aren't Miis," but I think it's kind of clever that they basically use a "custom Mii" to interact with real Miis.

I wish companies would realize, though, that they could dynamically alter Miis to match the game's style if they wanted to. That was my second thought when I saw that image, that the game was using existing Mii data with different images to create a different style of Mii. That'd be cool.

It wouldn't have to be serious. Something comical, even absurd.

Btw, did anybody notice that Super Paper Mario's premise was basically a dumbed-down kingdom hearts?

811
I think the storyline should deal with some sort of time-traveling meteor splitting the dimensions. (A mashup of Metroid Prime Echoes, Earthbound, and the SMB movie, with elements of the Dark/light world concept from Zelda) :P

812
I'd like to see (red: no chance ever) an Adventure mode that's more of a side-scrolling brawler, like the old-school Final Fight games and whatnot. Mostly similar to the Mario level from Melee's adventure mode, but with enemies that fight back and take multiple hits to kill. And more than one player co-operating (but with separate point totals for competitive edge). That would have more of a smash-bros feel, but the level designs and bosses could still pay homage to the original games.

I'd also love to see more of a storyline, with some kind of tongue-in-cheek explanations for traveling between worlds.

I don't get what you're trying to say here. I think you're being sarcastic, and suggesting that people with slow reflexes can be hardcore gamers?
I might disagree with you. "Hardcore gamer" is a nebulous term, and I don't know that there are many requirements, but one of the things that hardcore gamers tend to have is fast reaction time. Even if it's not a pre-requisite, playing fast-paced games presumably improves your reaction time. So it would make sense that hardcore gamers would have faster reaction times then some non-gamers, although I'm sure plenty of non-gamers have perfectly adequate reflexes, and I'm sure there are some gamers, such as myself, with stupidly slow reflexes. But most of my hardcore Melee-playing friends have faster reflexes, and I consider them "more hardcore" for that and other reasons.

O_o

I'm not a big fan of realistic fur on cartoon characters. It looks odd.  

815
We haven't even established that Smash Bros will have "waggle," have we*? Seems silly to argue about it at this point. Leave the balancing out of difficulty to the guys making the game. You don't know what the controls are actually like, so how do you know which way will have an advantage?

*The sideways remote may not use motion controls, or if it does, might use them in a way that's different from what you expect.

This is a bit off topic, but man, Cheez-its were using "Get Your Own Box" as a slogan fairly recently, and these ads strike me as obnoxiously similar.  

I do like the "Wii would like to play" ads. They're quirky and consistent, and they show off the system pretty well.

Clearly, they have to replace the 3 executives with a new Reggie-approved exec board:
Chuck Norris: Senior VP of Kicking
Vin Diesel: VP of Names
Jack Bauer: Executive VP of killing people who know too much

Your saving system sucks.

Don't break a game saving system you've used for 2 generations just because you want to be different or stupid.

Grow up.

Is that the email you sent when the GC came out, replacing cartridge saves with memory cards?

Did it ever suggest anything else?

"would this be a good game to buy if you just need something to do for a whole month"

I haven't played this series since Mario Party 3, but if it hasn't changed (and the review suggests that it hasn't) then yes, a 4-player 30-round match should last about that long.

823
Hmm, that's interesting. There was one original song in the first Ouendan, so it's not unheard of. Shame I can't read Japanese, or I'd simply check the game's credits.  

824
There are some odd factual errors, but other than that it's a nice review.
(All the songs are covers, if I'm not mistaken, and there were 19 songs in EBA, etc)

Also, are you sure there's no single-cart multiplayer? EBA had a limited single-cart mode, but with the Japanese menus I can't quite tell.

The deadline is June 6th? That's a pretty slim timeline for a short film. I have no clue if I'll be able to throw something together in that time.
