Razorfist's review. Pretty spot-on, IMO. The only thing I had a problem with was the Jedi Mind trick thing, as I've already debunked his complaint earlier in the thread.

This sorta happened to me a few years ago. I was buying All-Star Superman from FutureShop with my parents in tow. Girl at the cash register starts asking me about the movie, about my opinions on it. Starts asking me about Man of Steel, and naturally, I go off on a tanget. She laughs at it and whatever, I pay and leave the store.
My parents start poking at me about it. "She was flirting with you, you dingus."
"Wait- what?"
After that I had to reevaluate every encounter I've ever had with a girl ever. I didn't realise that girls actually flirt IRL, especially towards 16 year olds.

Clearly this is some sort of reference.
Either that or it's just not funny.

Pretty sure Luke was never explicitly tasked with killing his father like Ren was.

Watching the film a few more times should help me have a more definitive opinion on it, though. I will say this: I've fallen back in love with Star Wars because of it, and I'm more excited to watch it again then I was to watch it for the first time.

I wouldn't even say Han dying was the most powerful moment of The Force Awakens. I struggle to think of any moment where I was like "Wow."
But a few close ones would be when Rey flips the Falcon upside-down so Finn's broken turret can accurately hit the TIE Fighter on Jakku.
Another one would be when Rey resists Kylo's Force-mind-reading and turns it on itself. "You're afraid of not being Darth Vader."

Subjective. "But that's just my opinion." But sure, since it's sharing time say the biggest one for you.
I dunno about "biggest", I haven't really thought about it all too much. I can give you a few, though. In The Phantom Menace, at Qui-Gon's funeral, where Windu and Yoda are talking about the Sith. "There are always two. But which one did we kill -- the Master, or the apprentice?" As the camera ominously pans over Palpatine. THE most powerful scene in the movie. In Revenge of the Sith, when Vader screams "NO!". Visually, it's the most intense moment of the prequels. As someone who has watched the entire movie without sound, seeing that unfold without the ridiculous scream was just heartbreaking. In A New Hope, just after Luke fires the missiles into the Death Star's exhaust port. There's a good 5-15 seconds of pure music, leading up to the final explosion of the Death Star. Beautifully presented. Followed by a moment of pure euphoria as Han runs up to Luke and the two give the most brotherly hug of happiness ever. Brings me to tears. In Empire Strikes Back. This one should be obvious. "I love you." "I know." This might actually be the most powerful moment, now that I think about it. And finally, in Return of the Jedi, when Vader is taunting Luke on the Death Star. He brings up Leia, and Luke just loses it. His pure, unadulterated anger as he mindlessly swings and slams his saber into Vader's, paired with William's brilliant score. You can just feel the Dark Side winning. And then finally, Vader falls, and loses his arm. Luke sees the prosthetic limb, and as he looks at his own, he's reminded what he's fighting for. "You failed, your Highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me." Just off the top of my head. Notice how there's nothing from Attack of the Clones, AKA the worst movie.

Heart of coal...
Hey, if you wanna talk about emotional/powerful moments in Star Wars, I'm game. But that wasn't one of them.

Oh, yeah. In SSB64 if you're not using Fox or Pikachu, you're doing it wrong.

I was not moved by that scene at all. Maybe it's just because I knew what was going to happen, but I mean, anyone with a brain could've seen what was going to happen as soon as Han yelled "Ben!"
It actually felt kind of cheesy, tbh. I'm seeing it again in IMAX on Friday so maybe I'll appreciate it more then.

They both have real shitty recovery, though.

I don't like playing as him tbh. It's way too easy to get gimped in the Kirby/Polygon team battles and Falcon Punch is really hard to land.
If you can land Falcon Punch right it's devastating, though. And his jump+B attack is sooo useful once you master the timing. That's why I like Ganondorf in Melee - he's essentially a slower, but harder hitting and heavier Falcon.

Man, all I want is Falcon. Ness and Luigi can fuck right off.

Did you take longer than twenty minutes?
No, I timed it both times and I did it in 12 minutes the first time, 14 minutes the second time. I tried again after the first time because I had to use a continue and I wasn't sure if I could do that or not, but the second time I didn't die once.

WHAT THE FUCK.
I just did a Classic Mode run with Fox and Falcon didn't unlock at the end. This is bullshit.

Okay, so, for some reason, Jigglypuff remained unlocked after I finished a match with her and resetted the console.
So if you ever unlock characters, play at least one match with them first to confirm unlock, I guess.

Abrams isn't directing the next one? Why not?

« on: December 21, 2015, 11:25:49 PM »
I'm going to try and play a match as Jigglypuff after I unlock it to see if that "seals" my unlocking.

Might be a faulty battery in the cartridge. Those games are getting up there in terms of age, after all.
I'm sure you could look up some replacement tutorials on YouTube or something, if you wanna go through the effort. Here's one.
It took me 5 minutes to do last time so I'm going to retry it again. If I need to I'll try the video out.

I know that as I've seen the movie, but that's obviously not the joke here.

I finally fought and defeated Falcon, but when I turned the game off, he was gone. What the fuck.

And that's all I'll need in my starter kit?

Unfortunately it's USB only.
Okay, added to my cart. This will work, right?

Ethernet/USB adaptor if you're playing online. Wii-U wireless network cards make SSB online almost unplayably laggy otherwise. Mario Kart 8's coding can handle bad connections well, but Sm4sh doesn't.
Does the Wii-U not have an Ethernet port? Because all of my gaming online is done via Ethernet anyways...

I'm hoping my parents come through with the Nine Inch Nails CD collection I've been looking at. Not holding my breath, though.
