Smash Update: Oooo, hidden pleasures!
BlindsideDork | 6:25 AM on 02.07.2008 19 comments


Today is a "Hidden" something so I won't spoil it with any teasers or what not. Even if you click on this, you will have to scroll down a little ways just to find out what the secret revealing today really is. What can I say, I'm looking out for you!

And please don't post comments saying, "zOMg! We already knew this months ago." Not everyone went scouring for spoilers.












This enough?




Maybe a little more....




Okay, good.


Marth


The knight warrior from Fire Emblem as well as Super Smash Bros. Melee. Well he is back, obviously!



A stance for the truly graceful...



Wait, did he just hit Samus? Oh is he about to get it. Looks like Marth has a missile with his name on it.



It's almost like looking in a mirror! Except one has shorter hair than the other.



"Sword and sheath sword and sheath...sword is for fighting and sheath is for holding. Must remember."


And as well as others, he too has his own Special Moves box.



Dolphin...Chad, are you responsible for that?


Since he is a hidden character, enlarge the text to find out how to unlock him.

• Play 10 brawls
• Finish Classic mode on any difficulty level
• Get Marth to join your party in The Subspace Emissary
• With the exception of the last of the three methods listed above, you’ll need to face Marth in a brawl and beat him after satisfying the above conditions to unlock him.

It says the last three, but what I think it means is that either do one of the first two or do the third one to make it clap.


Time for a "newish" feature, Tips!


Marth's sword does damage all over. but it is the TIP that does the most damage. That's why you always have the protection wherever you go. You don't want to have any accidents!


Using the shaft only gives you 8% of usage. Pathetic size...err amount, right?



The tip takes on a whoeping 12% in stature. The end pointing away is always more dangerous.


If you have played as Marth in the past you are aware of his Over Special attack. It is the move where you can do multiple SWINGS. This time around, his performance skills has increased greatly. His new personal best is nine different swings. He still can only do 4 swings a night but the different way he can do it is truly legen...wait for it...



Initial swing, the first is easy to do and very memorable....


But next time around, you can change things up. You can go to a swing at people up top or down below.


Going for those above...


Going for those down below...


For your 3rd swing of the evening, do you want to go up, stay where you at, or go down?



Going up...


Going regular...


Going down...


And finally, you get 3 choices again. How wonderful...


Up


Regular


Down


Since Ike and Marth are the same, how do they differ? In one place, they differ with their defense/counter move.


Ike is the one with the powerful swing.


Marth as the quickness reflexes cause he is nimble yo.

Marth's attack will do 1.1x the damage that was dealt towards him, or at least 8%. Ike on the other hand steps it up to 1.2% or at least 10%. It is slower too.


Now for the FINAL SMASH.



He does a single "criticla hit." Oh this is going to be Epic...


A life gauge? What is that for...


Wait, they just end it right there? How dare you tease me without telling me how or what and who but how does that work. TELL ME! I don't mind that he is back though. I did play with Marth quite a bit so that be sweet to play as him and not some knock off clone of him. So thank you for the pleasure!

Now I don't get this. Everyone was turning cars over on their sides when it was implied Ness wouldn't be returning and now we know for a fact that Roy isn't coming back. So where's the rage here?

Roy was the red-headed step child of Marth? aka, no one liked Roy?

Actually, I hated Marth and of the two swordsmen used Roy exclusively, I was pretty pissed that Roy wasn't coming back and that Marth was, but I was appeased by the inclusion of Ike, who is admittedly more awesome than Roy.

I played as Roy all the time in Melee. Preferred him over Marth, like Techno Mage. I have a feeling I will play with Marth and Ike pretty exclusively this time around, too. I just like the whole sword fighter thing they got goin' on. Plus, I like playing with someone that truly takes skill to master.

Blindside, the life bar is a reference to Fire Emblem. You know that game series that Marth hails from, right?



Also, I liked Marth far better than Roy.

I always enjoyed playing as Marth in Melee, so I thought it Awesome to know he's in Brawl. I really like his Final Smash too. Nothing Flashy or that takes a long time to wind up. Just a quick and clean Critical Strike. Very nice.

Roy was awesome. Wasn't he just a Captain Falcon clone? If so, Roy was awesome.

Roy a Captain Falcon clone? MAJOR FAIL!

He had that charge attack, didn't he? Just like Falcon and Ganondorf. Then again, Roy's may have taken longer to pull off. I dunno, my memory card got switched with someone else's and now I don't have any characters unlocked to check. And I sure as shit don't feel like unlocking it a month before the new one comes out.

Marth wears a girl's headband. This is why he fails on the badass spectrum.

But I feel so pretty when I play as him :P

Thank this useful post!I am looking forward to your next one.Today I want to share some great dvd movies.

P90X is the good Body Building Guide for family. Both women and men can excise their body everyday in home which is very comfort and easy.Spongebob is the best seller of dvd sets online.
Also Star Trek Series sell very good because its fan are not only adult, but also elder and children.
Star Trek has 5 series all are very interesting and amazing, it is why Star Trek can last for 5 series.
What I like most is Scrubs and Desperate House wife. I like these dvd box sets because it affect the real life, I feel the story and roles are real in these 2 dvd boxset. But my mom like True Blood
And Lostwhich are full of fantasy and amazing. She said she can feel very relax while watching these fantasy movies after a day heavy housework. Yes, she is right, people watch movies for full most.
My Daddy like Greys Anatomyand also Dexter, he likes comedy and he feel very happy while watch these comedy dvd box set, for example:
Big Bang Theory
My husband like action and suspense movies most, he feel very exciting when watch these dvd box sets, the master piece should be CSIand Bones
There are too many good dvd sets and movies and we haven’t time to introduce one by one. You can search online to find many famous movies such as
Ncis and the new released one Doctor Who
