Title: What was your first Brawl match like?
Post by: Java on July 22, 2008, 09:54:19 PM
I still remember mine and in case I forget I have it saved. ;D

I picked Mario (for nostalgia) and decided to go against the first three characters on the screen: Donkey Kong, Link, and Samus. I picked a timed 2:00 match, so I wouldn't go over the limit to save my match. I put items on Medium (I think) and chose Battlefield. I remember how different Brawl felt from Melee, which wasn't too bad. The music sounded great and the sound effects, sounded different yet nice. It was fun to pick up and use all the new items that I had seen from the Brawl updates. In the end, I won, as I didn't put the CPU's on a high difficulty.

What was your first experience like?

I was playing with my friend. I was Olimar and we were playing on Distant Planet... with wii remotes :O

It made me realize that Smash Bros is meant to be played with a Gamecube controller.

My first matches were played just to unlock Ness, Marth, and Snake. I don't remember anything else about them.

Much like Chloroform, I don't recall...I have it posted here somewhere. Likely me trying Diddy, MK, and fox out.

Don't say that to TamJammerz, the Wiimote + Nunchuck champion :D (self proclaimed title... Go figure)

Lessee....I was sworn on using the Nunchuk at the moment, and used that, playing as Kirby (Blue), my brother played as Link (Red), and my other brother was playing as Bowser (...I think.), in Final Destination with a Level One Pink YoshiPunching Bag, all items (Minus recovery) on. We continued to wonder, "Why the hell am I TRIPPING!?" and "How did I get stunned!?", but in the end, my brother (Link.) won. It was then I realized how nerfed Kirby was. :( Then a few matches later, I moved to my Gamecube controller.

I also remember our reactions after hearing Ike. "You'll get no sympathy from me." got a reply of "Badass!"

...yeah.

My first match, I had chosen Meta-Knight.  My friend was over, so he chose Kirby.

It was a really weird match for me because half the time I didn't know what I was doing with MK, but since my friend has used Kirby in the previous games, he played as if he was a pro.  The only thing I kept on doing was tornado and drill, nothing else.  Also, we set the match to 10 minutes, so it was a very long match.


I still have it saved.  ;D

My first match was at the GameStop tourney. I was playing as Ike, and my opponent was Samus. I believe I scored three KOs, and he only got one. I didn't win the entire tourney, but it was still a fun experience. ^__^

My first match was the midnight tourney.  I won with Pikachu and was really excited, then they gave me a wrestling trophy and I was like "WTH?!"

my first match: Midnight tourney. I was Pokemon Trainer (ugh..a newbie I never played as).
Of course I go against the ONE girl in the entire place...and she gets Sheik...her main (double ugh).
The small custom stage that comes with the game. SOMEHOW I manage to get to sudden death and I maange to dash attack her and send her flying. Managed to avoid getting some serious ragging X_X;;

Me and my good friend have always been competing to become melee champ.

when I got brawl, I phoned him, and he came over to my house.
In melee he used Fox and I used Link.
we were pretty equal, and most of our matches were youtube video worthy...

when i popped in brawl, we squeeled like little girls XD
as always, my friend picked Fox.
I looked at link, then I saw ike.

I had recentley beat FE 10 before playing Brawl, and ike kicked major ass (as he did in FE9)
So I picked ike.
The stage was of course, Final destination.
No items except for smash ball.

After about 9 lives, I was already used to ike...
I was at about 130% with one life left.
My friend had about 60% with one life too.

then, a smash ball appears.
Fox weakened it, and I aether'd it. Breaking it open.

And I used great aether.
It was epic.

And I won. :)

A 1 minuite time match between me (Mario) and my lv. 7 foe (Zero Suit Samus), no items on the Castle Seige stage. It went to Sudden Death, and ended in a tie. I sent ZSS flying with an aerial move, but I couldn't recover, so I ended up getting KO'd at the exact same time as my foe.

I think I have the battle recorded, actually.

Me = Snake
Friend A = Link
Friend B = Ike
Friend C = Samus

2 minute match, all items on, blah blah blah. I kept getting my FS :P
