SSBB Playtime

Since Sayed won't quit resisting the temptations of the opposite sex Smash Bros, it's up to me to bring you all a very special pro-SSBB propaganda update! (Wow, the Jan posts just keep comin' >.<' ) Some of the highlights were:
1. Nintendog!
2. The special offscreen high-five backstab combo!
3. The ridiculous amounts of Pokemon-related violence
4. BOSS: Toon Link - killed by a rocking box.


Nintendog
Oh
My
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWD!!!

A cute puppeh in a brawl game?!
.
..
... Well I have no idea why I'm so surprised (This IS Nintendo, for goodness' sake >.< ) The awesomeness of the Nintendog can only be described by saying:

'Twas a giant puppy,
who doth melt many a cold fighter's heart with it's lovable puppeh dawg eyes,
and led many a brawler to their sweet, sweet demise (at the end of a 100-foot offscreen drop)
by blocking Jeffrey's ultra-wide Hi-Def screen with it's uncanny habit
of scratching gleefully at the screen with it's cute, scrawny little paws


Sooooo... what exactly evokes this Nintendog Powerup?
Fortunately for us, Youtube, as always, has the answer!



As you can plainly see, P1 takes up his jar of whatsit and activates the Weapon-Of-Mass-Cuddliness at around 15:00; shortly before he is blasted by Snake's Final Smash.

Right about now, I can figure sayed going "Screw the dog! Cats are better!". "No wait! TANKS! YAAA MON! xD"

Can a tank block the screen and kill your favorite cartoon heroes (Yes, Captain Falcon is also in SSBB)?!
NO! I Don't think so!!!



*Ahem* Now, it's time for some
Offscreen High-Five Backstabbing Combo Action!!!

Well, Yousef is probably going to kill me for this, but I love my shining moments in a Sudden Death. I always seem to win when it comes to Sudden Death (Yes, my methods are unconventional but then again, you've got to go to the extremes for victory!!!).

So. There we were. My Second "SUDDEN DEATH". First time was against Jeffrey. And we all remember how that went... *flashback action time!*

Unseen commentator: SUDDEN DEATH!
Jay: AHHHH! GET OFF!!!

*smacks Jeff to oblivion where he is incinerated off screen, creating a fancy blaze of fire. *Queue cheesy Johny Bravo style* Mmmm... shiny blaze of fire-y.

Jeffrey: What the heck just happened?!


Ahh... Good times. But that's all in the past! Next up was Yousef! And I was determined to keep my Unbeaten-in-SSBB-Sudden-Death merit! So, we didn't even know we were in Sudden Death and Yousef holds his hand up to high-five me after beating Jeff and Steven.

At the back of my head I was going "huh? I didn't know it was co-op...".
Then I just shrugged and high-fived Yousef. And then of course...

"SUDDEN DEATH"


Oh, wow. I still have my controller on. Bang. Yousef's dead. May he rest in peace in Nintenworld.
*moment of silence*


*pops head back up!* Well, that was fun! Now for...
Pokemon- Gotta Beat 'em ALL!

Okay. Has anyone noticed the disturbing amount of pokemon violence? Where's the love, Pikachu?!

Pika-CHUUUUUUUUUUU!!!
Thunder....-bolt?

Ah-ah-A-OWWWWWWWWW!!!!

So, my poor Ness character was getting Pika-mauled by an unending torrent of Pika-magic. Jeffrey was having fun running around as this little yellow mouse/raccoon/kangaroo/pest thing, summoning giant bolts of lightning. And we couldn't touch him while he was doing that. (Oh wait, I think Jeff wanted me to keep that a secret until he could match up with Sayed in SSBB... Oh well. *insert evil grin here* )

HEY! NO FAIR! While Jeffrey was off enjoying his AoE moment, Steven was busy getting reacquainted with the controls.

After getting a little too comfortable with Pikachu, Steven seemed to have forgotten that the pokemon trainer had a different control set. And he was busy throwing pokeballs, switching to no avail.
"Um, what the...?"
"Oh, wait, no I'm the pokemon trainer dude".
Sooo... Pikachu's Thunderbolt move translated to throwing a ridiculous number of pokeballs for the poke-trainer dude.

Each time he was transforming from Bulbasaur to Squirtle to Charizard. And he didn't know why.
"Oh wait! I forgot! I'm not Pikachu!"

Funnily enough... Squirtle was pretty effective against the Pika-bolts. Water > Electricity? Hmmm...

Well, at least I know what Pokemon EAN would like to play as...
Muahahaha.

And our final headline today iiisss.....

BOSS: Toon Link - killed by a rocking box.

So, Yousef persisted the longest against the final Boss (Toon Link), but alas, Pit was not enough against the toony foe (I guess having only two dimensions to worry about eases the burden a little >.< ).

Up next was Master Kung-Fu Brawler Jeffrey, who masted the art of Pika-lightning-whoring. And... he won. Apparently rocking the boat isn't such a bad expression... Just be sure to pack a giant wooden crate that will knock your opponent into oblivion.

Box-assisted kill. Hehehe...

Ah... and that should be about it for today's update! More SSBB action as it comes to you!
*Queue the rolling character credits screen! Someone with mad CS skills man the turret!*
