Support NeoGAF

[Beelzebufo]

I'd say a little bit, yeah.


Ganon is still GARBAGE

Well at least it's not all bad news.

 

[MSMrRound]

Any NA codes? *Cross fingers*

 

[Simply Sarah]

Here's a link explaining how the Super Smash Bros. Special demo works as well as an faq if you aren't certain.

http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11320/p/52

Asshole move, Nintendo. Asshole move.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

If I never turn my 3ds/demo off, will I not lose any uses?

 

[PadWarrior]

My email said no limit on uses

 

[Cody_D165]

GOT A CODE FROM A GENEROUS GAFFER!

Downloading!!!

 

[kuroneko0509]

Asshole move, Nintendo. Asshole move.

wat?

 

[beanman25]

Got every character!

 

[Simply Sarah]

wat?

According to the FAQ, anyone that had "Get spam from Nintendo!" turned off disqualified themselves from getting the demo codes even if they were Platinum last year.

 

[DaBoss]

Yeah... I don't see anything in my e-mail yet.

If I don't get one can someone spare me one?

They said they would be giving it out throughout the whole day.

 

[RomanceDawn]

So do we know exactly what the rules are for online with random folks?

 

[kuroneko0509]

According to the FAQ, anyone that had "Get spam from Nintendo!" turned off disqualified themselves from getting the demo codes even if they were Platinum last year.

Well, if you opted out from their email, their auto-system can't send you the email.

 

[Beelzebufo]

So do we know exactly what the rules are for online with random folks?

For glory has a 1 v 1 option, don't know what else.


I'm gonna be sad if I opt in for emails and still don't get a code

 

[JStein0222]

Looking for a US code is killing me - spare me Smash Gaf! We've been through so much together <3

Anyways, I just got to jump in on the Nintendo stream and they're just playing Mega Man 7 lol

 

[Mik317]

would be rather nice if someone gave me a demo code out of the blue....yep.


any way any character impressions?

 

[SenorArdilla]

LOL! The site is down from all these people rushing in to change e-mail settings.

 

[Hypemaster]

They said they would be giving it out throughout the whole day.

Oh whoops and I just emailed customer support. It is going to be a long day for me.

 

[Simply Sarah]

LOL! The site is down from all these people rushing in to change e-mail settings.

And yet it's all for nothing, since the FAQ seems to indicate the qualification checks have already occurred.

 

[SenorArdilla]

And yet it's all for nothing, since the FAQ seems to indicate the qualification checks have already occurred.

Which makes it even sillier.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

If I never turn my 3ds/demo off, will I not lose any uses?

Correct, as long as you don't close software or power down the demo doesn't get used up* (usage is taken on opening). Sleep mode won't close software so if you don't need to use your 3DS for anything else have fun. Apparently Club Nintendo demos are unlimited use though.

*-You have to do this with the Etrian Odyssey 4 demo in Europe as it has three uses and given the length of it...

 

[Beelzebufo]

And yet it's all for nothing, since the FAQ seems to indicate the qualification checks have already occurred.

I really hope not haha.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Apparently Club Nintendo demos are unlimited use though.

O: O: O: I just noticed this..

 

[ffdgh]

And yet it's all for nothing, since the FAQ seems to indicate the qualification checks have already occurred.

Guess they've sent them all out ;_;.

Was hoping I'd get one but oh well time to beg.

 

[NotLiquid]

Playing the demo now and holy shit Mario got buffed. His forward A has a fucking huge window of frames that actually Meteor Smash.

This game runs amazingly well. I could never imagine how good this game runs on 3DS. I'm actually playing Smash, on my portable.

Thanks so much JCH

 

[JoeM86]

Ok so I haven't unlocked Wario, ROB or Jigglypuff. Any tips?

 

[Anth0ny]

Lucario is VERY good. Similar to Brawl, but buffed aura and recovery. He doesn't even need a buffed recovery because of how ledge grab mechanics work now! It's overkill. Seems like a very strong character

Just unlocked Bowser Jr.!

 

[Neiteio]

Oh, PLEASE, based Anth0ny, provide extensive and detailed impressions of everything pertaining to Bowser Jr. :-D

Currently the No. 1 newcomer I'm anticipating. He looks like a ridiculously fun time.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Ok so I haven't unlocked Wario, ROB or Jigglypuff. Any tips?

Wario was 30 VS matches.

ROB was 120.

I don't remember what number Jiggly was. But every ten you unlock a fighter. Alternately, I think Wario was unlocked through Multi-Man.

From further down:
10: Ness
20: Falco
30: Wario
40: Lucina
50: Dark Pit
60: Doc Mario
70: ROB
80: Ganondorf
90: Game and Watch
100: Bowser Jr.
110: Duck Hunt Dog
120: Jigglypuff

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Wario was 20 verse matches.

ROB was 120.

I don't remember what number Jiggly was. But every ten you unlock a fighter. Alternately, I think Wario was unlocked through Multi-Man.

So can every character be unlocked through either a set number of vs. matches or a special condition (e.g., complete Classic with X character on Y difficulty?)

 

[Simply Sarah]

Which makes it even sillier.

To be fair, Nintendo announced this in a way that largely encourages scrambling and panic to see if the setting was one/to turn it on.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

So can every character be unlocked through either a set number of vs. matches or a special condition (e.g., complete Classic with X character on Y difficulty?)

Yes. That's correct.

edit:

From memory, I know it goes Ness, Falco, Wario, Lucina, Dark Pit. Which means it's THIRTY for Wario, not 20. Editing now.

 

[beanman25]

I can't contain my excitement when playing this game. I feel like a child again with how much fun I'm having.

GOD BLESS YOU NINTENDO AND SAKURAI

110: Duck Hunt Dog

[ec0ec0]

ROB feels fantastic. Like Brawl but quicker.

ROB question!?

is down smash as good as before?? (i mean, extremely fast and hits on both sides)

spot dodge into down smash was godlike

 

[Finale Fireworker]

It's:

10: Ness
20: Falco
30: Wario
40: Lucina
50: Dark Pit
60: Doc Mario
70: ROB
80: Ganondorf
90: Game and Watch
100: Bowser Jr.
110: Duck Hunt Dog
120: Jigglypuff

This is correct. I thought ROB and Puff were switched.

 

[Anth0ny]

Oh, PLEASE, based Anth0ny, provide extensive and detailed impressions of everything pertaining to Bowser Jr. :-D

Currently the No. 1 newcomer I'm anticipating. He looks like a ridiculously fun time.

Some cool stuff I noticed:

-When you do your up b, Bowser Jr. jumps out of his little clown copter. If you do this on stage, the copter falls to the ground and EXPLODES, dealing massive damage and sending the opponent flying. It's obviously not going to be easy to land, but I sent my opponent flying when I accidentally did it, lol

-When you do that up b, you lose your copter. However, you do not go into the falling state. You are actually given one aerial move (whether you press a, forward +a, down + a, it's always the same) while you are in this "copter-less" state... Bowser Jr pulls out a hammer and swings it around him, similar to Marth's neutral air

-The announcer actually says ROY, WENDY, IGGY etc.

He's a really fun character and feels good to use. He's quick and has no overly laggy moves. Gonna play a few more rounds with him.

 

[daydream]

Playing the demo, it's astonishing how smooth it is.

I like how they're showing the time and the battery status at the bottom. It shall come in handy, lol.

 

[Anth0ny]

ROB question!?

is down smash as good as before?? (i mean, extremely fast and hits on both sides)

Yes, this definitely still works, and works well

 

[JoeInky]

Does anyone want to do some 1v1, 3 stock, 8 minutes, items off with customisation turn on? I want to try something in a more... non shitty-cpu environment.

 

[Inferno313]

I will trade Don't Starve or Half-Life 2 Episode 2 on Steam for a code!!

 

[Lunar15]

The only appropriate OT name for this now is "Japan Time!"

But man, the Quarter Pounder joke was great.

 

[The Bankslammer]

The new Mysterious Murasame Castle arrangement is pretty swanky. Does it play on any stage or is it Smash Run only?

 

[Finale Fireworker]

The only appropriate OT name for this now is "Japan Time!"

But man, the Quarter Pounder joke was great.

Can you explain it? Why is it funny?

 

[RomanceDawn]

Watching these For Glory matches now. I love the Final Destination versions of these stages! I really really love them!

 

[Moonlight]

Robin impressions would be highly appreciated!

Awesome! Please provide more impressions, if it's not too much trouble. I'm eating this up!

 

[trixx]

3ds OT is incredible can't wait till the Wii u version drops

 

[ahoyhoy]

It's:

10: Ness
20: Falco
30: Wario
40: Lucina
50: Dark Pit
60: Doc Mario
70: ROB
80: Ganondorf
90: Game and Watch
100: Bowser Jr.
110: Duck Hunt Dog
120: Jigglypuff

It's been a while since I've had to unlock Smash characters this way, but you can unlock characters by playing against bots in Sudden Death mode right?

 

[ec0ec0]

Yes, this definitely still works, and works well

(my friends hated it in brawl. Once we play the new smash, they will remember why )

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Lucario is VERY good. Similar to Brawl, but buffed aura and recovery. He doesn't even need a buffed recovery because of how ledge grab mechanics work now! It's overkill. Seems like a very strong character

This is music to my ears.
