Super Smash Bros. Brawl online thread

NOOOOOO!!!!!!

My Wii will not read the Smash Bros disc regardless. Freeloader wont work it either.

Seems I'm one of the unfortunate ones who have Wii's incapable of playing the game.

Nintendo are offering free repair service for people with this problem, but as it NOA and I'm in Europe it's little comfort for me.

God Damn! Do I have to buy a new frickin wii just to be able to play SSB ? I'm getting really fecking iritated and sick of my wii.

It's been the worse console experience I've ever had...


I just want to play games... console say's NO! at every turn. Wii I'm beginning to hate you. :(:(:mad::mad::mad::(:(

Well, what I get from this is that you got the game from America.


It wont work. The Wii is region protected, so you cant play games from America on a European wii, or the other way around. Im sorry that you wasted $50, youll just have to wait for it to come out in Europe. D:

There are mod chips to get around the region protection...

Not that I advocate mod-ing in any way, shape, or form, but I'd also rather have the games available to everyone at the same time.

You could do that, but isnt that dangerous? I heard horror stories of people who did that, and broke their Wii! D:
 
OK I have modded my wii with wii key so that I may play Wii import titles... but forced software updates can leave it vunerable and some games just dont work.

So I bought FREELOADER to help... which got Battalion Wars working but Smash Bros just doesn't want to know.

I regret not just buying a USA machine from the outset.



If Nintendo had gone to HD, then these problems probably wouldnt be so bad, the 360 has 80% region free issues, and the ps3 is utterly region free.

But Nintendo love to just stick two fingers up to Europe as well as take a stinky leak all over my legitimate wii purchases.

I'm tempted to just download a hacked SSB so I can at least play the game rather than waiting another 2 month for the euro version....


THe cube was never this much of a hassle.
 
some important news from me:

baseball season starts on monday, which means i'll be on less, especially if the braves are on tv. as i've pointed out several times, i'm not always online when it says i'm online (i'm sharing it with my brother). my times are going to be erratic due to those two items, but if i have an open time slot, i'll try to post it on here at least 24 hours in advance.

i'll be under the tag of 'brv08' if i'm online, if it's not, it's my brother.

I'll check tonight to make sure I added you. I haven't been on in a while since I was trying to finish up another game after I beat SSE.

Praxis is a big talker but when you face him in battle, you will see that he is easy fodder. :D

He got the game from America, but he's got a Freeloader that lets him play American games on a European Wii.

Thing is that he's got one of the dirty lens Wii's that won't play Smash Bros. Nintendo always fixes this for free- except that since Smash bros isn't out in Europe yet, they haven't started the program to fix them yet.

I've only played online once and experienced some lag. If it still lags maybe it's because I'm far from you guys :p (south america)
 
I'm looking for some online games:

I'm usually on during the day, but if you PM me and I'm around I'll play.
 
Most epic thing ever happened today.
I was Ganondorf and my brother was Ike. I did a down-A lightning kick and at the exact same time my brother did Ike's B attack.

He still got hurt but had absolutely no knockback (he was well over 100 damage at the time).

Totally canceled each other out. :D
 
I am SO tired of stupid people online!

So I enjoy watching brawls online, but I would say about 50% of the time the brawls I watch are just of these morons that just sit there and either taunt or do one more over and over and over and over and over again! I don't care that I lose coins, but I don't want to waste my time watching these complete idiots sit there and do absolutely NOTHING! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I just had to vent.

Well, many of us are getting the game tonight so i thought i might make a thread for the game so we may exchange Brawl codes.

As you get the game, post your Brawl code and i will keep an active list of players in the OP. Feel free to schedule game times and meetings in this thread as well.

Happy Brawling :)

Here's mine. If you want to add me, PM or email me with the following info:

1. Your Brawl Code (obviously)
2. The name you'd like me to add your Brawl Code under (i.e. Mike, etc.)

As a general rule of thumb, I'll be mostly available on weekends. I share this Wii with my brother (who will likely decline anyone he doesn't know:rolleyes:), so be sure to set up a time beforehand so I can commandeer the system:D.
 
So I just played a few matches with fellow Brits. The lag wasn't too bad at first but as someone else joined it became noticable, especially on that F-Zero level. It was really playable when I was playing somebody about 30 miles north of me.

Also it was full of fun. Even lagging. I don't know if it's an updated UK version but there wasn't any delay between button pressing, it just went slow.
 
Yeah, it's almost lagless when I play people in the same state as me. It's even pretty good when i play people two states down (California).

Things get really bad when I play against people in New York and Florida (other side of the state) but it never gets choppy, only delayed. I learned to compensate.

I'm curious to see against someone in the UK :D
