Hey everyone!
This is one of those pointless blogs, but I felt my old one has been up long enough (check it out now if you haven't already, there's still time!). I think I list some of the things Brawl has added from Melee. I am not counting things that merely changed like movesets for characters. So without further ado, here's my list:
Subspace Emissary
New Nintendo characters
3rd Party characters
New stages
New items
Final Smashes
Online play
Stage builder
Challenge grid
Masterpieces
Ability to save replays
Boss battle mode
Co-op stadium games (Multiman brawl, hrc, events, and boss battles)
Coin launcher
Stickers
CDs
My Music
Customizable controls
Multiple air dodges w/out helpless
Running up smash
Directional side smashes
Multiple taunts
Ledge grabs facing the other way.
Footstool jumping
Moving while shooting (items)
Gliding
Pivot grabs (not positive they weren't in Melee)
Ukemi (again not positive it wasn't in Melee)
So that's all I can think of, but that's a pretty sizable list right? Feel free to post anything I may have missed or correct me on something.
So, I just tried playing Mario Kart DS online just to see if I could and it actually worked. I had tried to reconnect my Nintendo Wifi USB connector before and it hadn't worked, but now it is working. I'm so glad I can finally play World of Goo and other vc/wiiware games, plus online games.
If anyone wants to be my wii friend, so we can trade individual friend codes for games, here's my wii number: 6435 0200 2667 4766
And because Brawl's the game I'll probably play most, here's my Brawl fc: 3222-5285-7340
If you want, you can just post your number here, or PM me. Thanks.
EDIT: here's my Mario Kart Wii fc as well: 4854-7019-4007
Story time everyone!
So I got my Wii somewhere around April of 07. For a while I did not have Internet access to it. I missed out on the free Internet browser, couldn't get vc games, and couldn't play games online. My dad couldn't get the wireless router he had to work, but later that year I finally bit the bullet and bought me a Nintendo wifi USB connector. After a little setup and elbow grease, I was able to get a connection. It was a pretty bad connection though, as about half the time it just refused to work. Despite this, I bought 2 vc games and was able to Brawl it up online with some buddies. Eventually my brother had to go off to college (not literally though, he commutes), and therefore needed a laptop. Because he is mostly at home, he needed Internet on that laptop for homework and such. He decided to purchase something similar to what I had, but it would send out signals to anything, not just Nintendo consoles. To setup his thing, he told me he had to unplug the NWUSBC. Believing I'd get a better connection out of this thing, I agreed to let him unplug it. That of courese deleted all of the setup stuff for my NWUSBC and of course my brother couldn't get his thing to work. So then I had no Internet at all. After many months, my dad finally bought a new wireless router. After many weeks of fiddling with that, he finally got wireless Internet... only to my brother's laptop. So now, not only do I not have Internet on my Wii and DS, but I also don't have anyone working on getting that for me, since Internet for my bro was my dad's main priority. I tried reconnecting my NWUSBC, but I can't even get that to work now. I just feel like it's been forever without Internet, and with all of these cool online games coming out, I really feel like I'm missing out.
Whew, that was long. Sorry if I bored you, but I wanted to write my Internet story and just put that out there. I also wanted to clear out my Mega Man help blog to put in a fresh one.
