For what I have been playing so far, Jigglypuff plays like a mix between SSB64 and Melee. All her ar standard moves besides up A hace good priority, and her forward A is a killer which you can combo easily!
Jigglypuff is a great character, but she needs to be played different due to some common annoynaces (Pit, Meta Knight, Sonic).

King Dedede has really taken over as my main man. I try to balance who I actually play as, but Dedede is who I'm best with. Slow as balls and his moves lag, but that's nothing compared to the sheer hit power and recovery ability he has.

Deadpool, I know you like Falco. What's your opinion on Brawl Falco? I mained Falco in Melee, and I like him just as much in Brawl EXCEPT when going up against the two rapid sword rapists, Meta-Knight and Pit. Not only is it extremely hard to get a hit in with Falco, but everytime they should be dead they flap their wings and get back on the stage. This is when I really notice that Falco's smash attacks are a bit weaker than in Melee.

Yeah, Falco's Smash attacks are weaker and shorter-ranged now that they aren't all the same as Fox's. It took a while to adjust to the overhead club instead of the spinning kick thing as his forward smash, and his attacks just don't have the same knockback that they used to. I'm still adjusting to him, really, but I'm finding a lot more fun behind the newer characters.
So far as his specials go, I'm adjusting to not having the Reflector be as on-call as it was in Melee, since that was my surprise attack move and pretty much the only speedy attack Falco had. I've learned to guage how far it travels, though, and it's nice that his Falco Phantasm gets more distance, and I like that his blaster is the only one of all three Star Fox characters that can span on indefinitely...overall, though, he's definitely weaker. But I think the trade-off was so he could be more agile in the air, which works to his favor, having the massive first jump and all.

I like the reflector kick. It's especially helpful when Pit does his cheap Forward+B "hiyayayaya" move. And maybe this is just the fault of Brawl in general, and not Falco specifically, but I'm having a harder time with Falco in the air than I did in Melee. Maybe it's because I've memorized all his jump distances in Melee and had it down to a science.
I like the new Phantasm too. It also seems to have a higher priority, because I'm not getting punched out of it nearly as much as I did in Melee.
Right now, I'm still using Falco as my number one, but Olimar is rising really fast for me. Once you get used to his very technical style of play, he's awesome.

On Jigglypiff: I think shes good. jigglysama beat me down with her, so yeah. He still has strong air moves, and Brawl's mechanics really support her.
Falco: He is really different. He's more of a general arieal character then an air to ground. He can also deal more damage now in the air. His recovery is weaker(which sucks becuase his was the worse in Melee), but you can get more distance naturally, so just time it well. He doesn't have his crazy priority, but he's a lot more balanced in terms of moves then just straight strong hitters and arieal attacks. More damage giving now.

I've yet to unlock Jigglypuff.  All the characters have a nice balance between Speed, Power, Gimmick and Recovery though. All the characters play very nicely. On Jigglypiff: I think shes good. jigglysama beat me down with her, so yeah. He still has strong air moves, and Brawl's mechanics really support her. Make up you mind. Is it a boy or girl? |

Well, I haven't played much, but Snake is my best character. His forward smash is fun to take advantage of.

I've unlocked everyone since I last posted. Wolf and Toon Link surprised me with how fun they are to play. Wolf may have the "core" special moves Fox and Falco have, but they are very different compared to theirs. His Forward + B is awesome, especially on stages with gaps in the middle of the stage. If you time it right, you'll slash opponents downwards like if you hit them with a pitfall. His Smashes are also very different. His Forward Smash in particular is great, since he dashes forward. Toon Link feels much better than Link does to me. He's faster, he seems to be stronger with his Smashes, and has a few small tweaks to his moves (his Up Smash and Down Air, mainly) that work out more to his favor. He's fun to play as. So my favorite characters as of right now are C. Falcon, Ike, Marth, Wolf and Toon Link.  |

I agree with you on Toon Link. I never played as Link or Young Link in Melee, but I like playing as Toon Link in Brawl. He does have more powerful smashes, but his range is much shorter than regular Link.
I can't believe Pit's forward+B special reflects projectiles. What's the point of his mirror shield then? I have a friend who pretty much only uses Pit's forward+B special and it's frustratingly cheap and difficult to counter (especially since it reflects projectiles).

I'll tell you guys what Jigglypuff is good for. Getting 10 kills in Cruel Brawl, that's what. Jump off the ledge, then under the level and the Alloys will sometimes follow. Here's a video of some dude getting 78 kills: jp.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPTo_e5Un2MFor the record, you get the Liquid Snake sticker for doing this. Now to focus on Boss Battles on Intense mode and everything else will just be a matter of time! Edit: Bwahahaha! I beat Boss Battles on Intense with Lucas, my main. Now to beat it with the remaining 20-ish characters to get the Winged Taboo trophy and focus on Target Tests 4 & 5 and play the hell out of Vs. mode to get the rest of everything. |

Something Neko Neko Panic and I noticed through experimentation: In most of ROB's color schemes, the words "Robotic Operating Buddy" appear in red and black on the front of his base. However, the graytone US region colorscheme changes this so it instead reads "ROB" at the very left in bigger text, and then "Nintendo Entertainment System" to the right in smaller text. Er, I think this color schemes said "Famicom Robot" or something like that as far as I remember it, but yes, the American colors change it to the American R.O.B. label. |

On all ROBs but the American color, they do indeed say Famicom Robot. This includes enemy ROBs.

I need to post my FC...
Name: Flip
Code: 0731-4543-0483
I just finished my spring break, so it was dumb of me to not post it sooner. I'll be able to play online if anyone of you get a hold of me through AIM or a thread here (I just have to run over to the library), and I'll be around all summer to play since I graduate in May.
All that said, I'm finding my new mains to be, oddly enough, Pit, Wario, and Diddy. I really wanted to main Olimar and I have learned some of his ins and outs but I'm finding it difficult to really work well with him in FFAs. That said, Pit is godly and I owe him the service of playing as him after such a long wait for his return. He's won me the most matches, by far. Wario is surprisingly acrobatic with amazingly strong aerials and a sexy-ass bike. Wario-Man, btw, is one of the BEST FS's in the game by far. You basically get double speed and invincibility, no strings attached. Sexy. Diddy, sort of like Wario, plays very much an air-game. He's incredibly nimble and his smashes are great combo starters. His recovery is always shaky for me because you have to charge his Up B, but I find myself winning with him a LOT. His FS is hard to handle and kinda crap, but his attacks definitely make up for it.
And you know who really surprised me? Meta Knight. Not because he was good, but because he was terrible. He has NO KOing attacks. The best I've found are his up tilt, up air, and throws (!). Other than that, he's really just a character you can have fun with. I can't seem to find the strong attacks since everything, even his smashes, becomes an instant combo. Any help there, guys?

^ Yeah, Meta Knight only seems good for racking up percentage. I find his side special is pretty good for knocking people out.
I also agree on Toon Link being awesome.
That said, my best are Toon Link, Wario, Wolf, Snake and Sonic. Wolf is very different than Fox, and is actually pretty fast for such a powerhouse.
