My brother kept spazzing out when they announced that. Like that one time they introduced a set of Yu-Gi-Oh cards that had the gimmick of punching your opponent in the pressure points when you flipped them into attack mode. Also, yadda yadda, this changes the Home Run Contest metagame forever, I guess. Because everyone knows forcefields must shatter like glass and stuff when you apply enough force. As much as I've always wanted to see a sentient sandbag being beaten up by two Solid Snakes, one of which is played by a friend in another country without either one of us having to take a plane first, I have to admit that this was a bit low on my priority list.Īlso, neat! A forcefield! I hope it'll break spectacularly when you smash through it. There are mathematical equations that could prove that claim! But seriously, I hope they'll soon prove that they're capable of using Wi-Fi for more interesting things, because yeesh. more Sandbag! This is like a dream come true, isn't it? First you get to toss him around on the loading screen, and then. Now, we can beat up Sandbag in online co-op. You'd THINK that, but consider for a bit. Of course, we already knew he'd be appearing in the loading screen for online matches, so there isn't much reason for me to rejoice. Sandubaggu-kun is a great friend who lets you unleash frustration with fierce attacks. His soulful eyes and whimsical feature are an attracting point. Aside from a few hardcorer fans who liked to test out combos and whatnot, I don't think I was alone doing that.īut still! I'm not complaining that the feature is back, if only because we can see Mr. Normally, I'd just do it with all the characters, spamming the same low-knockback attack again and again, then smash that Sandbag, but once I got the trophies, I was done. I wasn't a huge fan of the Home Run Contest in Melee, so this left me shrugging. In there is a detail that, while not a gigantic spoiler by itself (you might even see it coming while playing!), could be considered one!ĭay 106: Entry 128: STADIUM: Home Run Contest Hurray! A stage set in the final chapter of a game that's technically not available for english speakers to play! Unless they like following through the game with a script, stumbling through item lists, not really having any freedom, and missing all the humor in battle messages and whatnot!Īll right, people who haven't played Mother 3 yet (and actually intend to)? Don't pay too much attention to the screenshots. You did all you could! But worry not, I spent all those funds on something almost as awesome! What is it? You may find out once it's done being constructed! Hints: it's sixty feet tall, gold-plated, and looks like me. It's just that the fate of the world won't depend on it just yet.īad news, everyone! Despite my fundraiser, we came juuuuust short of the required million dollars, meaning I didn't get to fly to Los Angeles and play the Brawl demo! Oh well. Until then, we'll be commenting on old entries as usual.

I'm going into sleep mode until we get to the real crisis.
