it's suddenly struck me that the next generation of fake smash leaks and edits (whenever it happens) will mostly consist of ai

brawl was the last good smash bros

>slow and floaty
>no combos, just random stray hits
>abhorrent character balance
>subspace is literally just Kirby gameplay but without any of the fun stuff from Kirby games
>most of the final smashes are just "I win" buttons
>removed characters for no good reason
>opened the floodgates to endless 3rd party rosterfagging
nah

>>750271352
>caring about character balance in a game with whacky items and stage hazards
never gonna make it

>>750271352
>>removed characters for no good reason
there was the forbidden 7 or some shit, some of the cuts were found in the data files and supposed to come back. i remember mewtwo was one. but cutting pichu and young link and dr mario and roy was based
>>opened the floodgates to endless 3rd party rosterfagging
it was hype to see sonic but snake was really the end. with snake in any random nigger can get in

>An easy-to-use character, Mario sets the standard for balance.
Been a long time since I played Brawl, but I really don't think they were using him as the balance yardstick?

>>750273464
I mean, we're not talking about competitive minutiae here, even casuals can observe how much heavies suffer for poor mobility and "whacky items and stage hazards" make that problem WORSE. I don't know if you ever actually played much all random/items on, but if you're Ganondorf versus a Metaknight and the dragoon spawns you may as well just go fuck yourself.

>>750274131
just puppyguard the dragoon piece that spawns closest to you lmao

darker, more detail denim overalls = next gen

>I miss talking about daily Brawl updates with my friends in 5th grade
i kind of felt the same excitement with smash 4 initially

until the game actually came out... then it struck me how underwhelming it actually is

>>750273897
Mario is one of the worst characters in the game lol
I'll say Kirby was far more "balanced" as a smash character than him.

I still remember the original dojo before it was made into a daily update site. This snake render was always better than the one they went with too.

The interesting thing about Smash Bros. is that it didnt have any female representation until Melee with Peach and Zelda

>An easy-to-use character
>side b is a reflector that requires some timing or something that can trip up recoveries if you jump off stage (things a new player will be unlikely to do)
>down b is a water move that pushes the opponent away, needs to be charged, needs to be aimed when fired and even then is mostly useless

The announcement of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games a couple weeks earlier made this a bit less surprising

>>750275781

Mario is the Mickey Mouse of gaming, he's iconic and well known but realistically no one actually gives a damn about the Mario characters.

Brawl itself is unironically the WORST Smash game, but JAPAN TIME and the hype leading up to the game was absolute peak.

Shit MK player

guys you know what would be awesome
than in brawl they added cloud from final fantasy seven
eheheheh

This. Brawl is the last time Smash had any soul whatsoever.

For me, it was Brawl Minus.

>>750282690
Ultimate's roster with Brawl's soul and Melee's engine would be the best possible Smash game.

I'm surprised the Brawl Dojo is still up to this day.
Are the Melee and Smash 64 sites still around too?

Brawl should have just never been released so the Dojo could keep going forever

I thought Samurai Goroh was going to be a playable character when that update hit me at 3am. I'm still mad to this day.

>>750268904
wow they put nortubel in smash
