When somebody enters with the FE crowd, Bayonetta, Meta Knight, Ness, Lukas, Hero or MinMin, I get into rage mode and having a good time, beating the asses of those annoying characters - even though it's the players, who make them annoying.

      Trevor Abruzzo: Nah they have great points. Smash 64 feels pure. For ex its clearly the most balanced one in series by far. Hitstun actually exists and gameplay feels simple /fun.
      In contrast the next 2 games: SSBM is laughably unbalanced. The top5 or so characters wipe their butt with everyone else. Techniques like chain grab/shine only exasperated it against inferior ones. Brawl has a retarded shileding/ air dodging system, absurdly floaty and the ridiculous 3rd jumps. Didnt play Smash Ultimate so no comment on that one

      @ "MOST BALANCED"
      Lmao good joke. I love smash 64 and spent so much time playing it as a kid, but it's exactly that. A rough prototype for games down the line and if you think it's somehow superior you need to take your nostalgia glasses off, genwunner. Pikachu is listed as the undisputable S tier of the game due to having just plain better attacks and frame data. Melee is an exception and cannot really be compared to because the meta surrounding that game is mainly based around unintentional glitches and exploits. Your only comparison is Brawl and you just stated you didn't play the two newest entries. Sounds to me your bias is heavily skewed and can't really be used to gauge smash 64 as the purest of the bunch. Even then praising something purely based off of "purity" just comes off as "I don't want to celebrate and discover other games and just want the same vanilla tic tac toe"
      We have a phrase for something like that in computer engineering "If it runs perfectly, there are not enough features on it"

    •  Před 3 lety +1

      ​@@pluna3382 well Newsflash: sequels can mess up a good formula. Just b/c Pikachu is good doesnt mean all other characters suck- they all had zero-KO combos and were decently lethal. Even w/o the exploits in SSBM the game was pathetically imbalanced w/ characters like bowser/pichu/kirby being useless. Brawl had terrible gameplay. And im basing my knowledge on the 1st 3 games, not ones i didnt play. "As the facts change so does my opinion" and my current thought is the 2nd/3rd games should be ashamed to be in the n64's presence. Just like every pokemon game after the first two pokemon gens werent necessary

      Melee has Roy and Ganondorf, and it has filler characters like Dr. Mario and Pichu. Brawl has random tripping. Smash 4 has dlc characters like Bayonetta and Cloud that were made to be better than the ones already on the game. Don’t get me wrong, I love all smash games, but with stuff like that you can’t argue that they’re more balanced than the original.

I mean think of it this way: Smash 64 is the foundation of the series, Melee is the best one, Brawl is the worst one, Ultimate is well the Ultimate one, and Wii U/3DS is just the one that happened.

    You have to realize that at the time, Nintendo was far less focused on the foreign market in the late 90's, and strictly made Japanese games for the Japanese. Jigglypuff was initially going to be the only Pokemon rep because she was basically the Japanese's Pikachu, rivaling the actual Pikachu in popularity as number one. I believe they included Pikachu first after reconsidering just how crazy popular Pikachu was getting world wide. Dont take my word for this though, as I was only four at the time and not Japanese, but from what I understand and have read on various places, this is true.

      I somewhat doubt that story. Pikachu had already been Ash's partner for over a year at that point and Pokémon yellow came out that exact same year as well. Pikachu was already firmly cemented as the mascot of Pokémon.
      But if they wanted another Pokémon ref there were basically 2 choices: Jigglipuff or Meoth.

    The flow of 64 is my favorite, not insanely fast all the time and I can still string together long and satisfying combos and the sound effects make it that much more satisfying. Mechanic wise it's my favorite equal with Melee but I really don't like how a standard 64 controller makes the game feel and lack of single player. Other than that I disagree with your stance on it but I totally get where you're coming from.

    • @SystemSyko
      @SystemSyko Před 5 lety +9
