>>12315860smash are the only games where mario actually goes "*bing* *bing* wahoo!"
>>12315860>go to every friends house in 1999>they always want to play smash bros>"ugh...I guess i'll play">always feel like I'm just walking back and forth across the map going through the motions>damage numbers go above 100% for some reason and make no sense>deaths happen randomly for some reason based on RNG>"...can we play something else"
It's breakbeat, not DnB
>>12316526>that one loser
>>12316526>"""""map"""""
>>12316526Yes, but just two years later, everyone wanted to play Melee

>>12316927Not everyone
>>1231692764 > MeleeI never vibed with Melee at all, it's way too reliant on light, unsatisfying hits that require long combos to get anything done, and since every hit pushes your opponent out of range for no reason you have to constantly chase them down just to continue the combo. It's frustrating, to say the least.

>>12315860>late 90s dnb-inspired beatDave & Busters only had a handful of locations in the late 90s. Most people in the US hadn't even heard of it at the time, so I sincerely doubt it had a hand in inspiring the music of a Japanese game with a Japanese composer.
It's more like nu-jazz
>>12316715what else do you call fighting worlds?
>>12317045Stages, arenas, levels... Certainly not maps.
I played an insane amount of this as a kid. I'm also playing Melee and Brawl for the first time right now.
>>12317038But do you have proof it didn't?
>>12316592It's fusion. DnB and breakbeat use amen and other similar breaks and rarely include horns.
>>12317516shut up nerd
>>12318080Die retarded. You wouldn't know african beats if they hammered you in the ass.
>>12318508>You wouldn't know african beatsImagine my worry
>>12315860Depends on how tryhard I want to be and how good is my opponent, in order of most to least tryhard:>Mario, amazing combo potential>Kirby, same as Mario>Link, projectile spam>Samus, killer spike in aerial Down + A>Ness, absorb arwing shots and deflect with the bat>DK, landing the punch and suicidal grabs are very fun>Luigi, trying to get the fiery Up + B whenever I can>Yoshi, egg people out of the stage>Jigglypuff, landing Up +B and Down + B was humilliatingI never played Fox, Captain Falcon or Pikachu, because they felt too OP and thus unfun to play.
>>12318563I don't have to, surrounded
>>12318579in my friend group we always had set characters. I was always Fox who was actually very hard to master but the reflect ability was unmatched back then. One dude was always Samus and one dude always Kirby. Kirby was the most OP
