You dufus.

It's white and clear. Look just to the right of the white circle. It's the exact same blue.

Sakurai better give us a good update soon. We're setting around talking about the damn jump circles for God's sake.

Oh... heh, your right.

Hey, well I gave several topic points in my post... I blame Bill for focusing on the circles

Ahahaha, as if I needed another reason to love Nate...

Real men use items!

This quote makes the update worth it.

Boy am I annoyed right now...

Yay! More friendcodes! Whoopie!

ShyGuy · « **Reply #2535 on:** December 02, 2007, 07:01:41 PM »

haha. SUCKERS.

LuigiHann · « **Reply #2536 on:** December 02, 2007, 07:12:43 PM »

What happened to "looks like we thought of everything"? You couldn't think of a way to use the built-in friend code system?

IceCold · « **Reply #2537 on:** December 02, 2007, 07:16:19 PM »

Do we even know if that's technically possible? I mean, sure, for leaderboards and for exchanging stuff it is (see Big Brain Academy and Metroid), but what if it's impossible to use system codes for matchmaking and online gameplay?

queerness?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #2541 on:** December 03, 2007, 03:33:29 AM »

I consider being called queer by a no-items fan to be the very definition of irony... =)

Stogi · « **Reply #2542 on:** December 03, 2007, 03:57:27 AM »

So is 4 player Brawl confirmed?

Haha, so true.

As for friend codes, the only logical explanation is that Nintendo is thinking of updating the Wii's system and doing away with system friend codes in favor of a better system at some point, hence why games now have their own so they don't get their online infrastructure ripped out if Nintendo updates.

Also, I believe we knew about 4 player online before.

Is Nate's comment the first good indication of items in online play?

You can clearly see 4 characters fighting on the Wi-Fi mode update.

4 player is confirmed, but I don't think we know yet whether four Wii systems can play against each other or if there's a limit of two (like on Mario Strikers).

I seem to recall some people had their doubts. And you know as well as I do how little bearing common sense has on anything said around here.

I should have been more clear. Vudu pointed out what I really meant to say and that is if 4 consoles have been confirmed to brawl together. If so, then 4 player matches on random will be way more likely.

The question was reasonable to raise for online due to issues of latency.

Fighting games with online modes are a dicey situation already, and I don't believe there's ever been a 4 player online fighting game with the physics intensity of SSBB. Items will add even more to the already sizable network overhead.

It's not uncommon to disable certain features in games in online situations due to bandwidth restrictions, be they graphical effects, certain stages or other features, and items could have been one of those.
