A beautiful analogy!

Why are people treating these like new pictures, if they have been shown before?

I'm getting Melon Pink.

Sorry, I've just gotten back from a week long vacation. I'm a little behind the times.

I don't remember seeing any Melon Pink...

Schmeckie, i can kick more ass than you think. ive played in over 500 matches and only lost 52 times (curse those times i wanted to practice at weak characters!)

Not to play a my-dick-is-bigger-than-yours game, but compared to many Smash Bros. Gods, that's spit in a jar. Personally, I've played thousands of matches (before I reset my records), won a local tournament, and much to my delight, I've become a bit of a local celebrity amoungst the gamer groups in my area (something I found out just a month or so ago). Not trying to put myself on a pedestal, but to use my situation as an example of the types of people you'll end up fighting when you go online, and people who have even better records. No matter how good you think you are, you can't get too cocky. I've jokingly said I'm gonna kick ass, but really, I'm just anxious to fight some better and better opponents, especially since I've beaten everyone here, and I wanna fight more and better people.

And Muzzy, you forget that one of the geek clout's biggest complaint about Nintendo is their lack of support to Gameshark and its ilk. It's a toss-up whether or not Nintendo will even allow a Revolution AR.

Pretty much. I think I'm good because everyone that I fight, I beat consistantly by the third battle (and the guy I played that took me that long, I was pretty rusty). Anyways, until I fight more people, I'm still a novice, there are so many good players out there, I just wish that competitions were easier to find.

And, as far as the AR goes, it's not a Nintendo Product, nor does it have the Nintendo Seal of approval. I do believe that there was a court case against Game Genie back in the day, and Game Genie won, so I doubt that Nintendo can really do anything but denounce the product. At least in the US, anyways, and most likely the UK. I do believe that there have been many cases in Japan where the device that edits or exploits the game have lost the cases.

I think the red is actually melon pink, or maybe it is only red. Oh well, I'll still get the stranges color at launch, as those are only color ideas, they haven't been confirmed just yet.

yeah, spill your unimpressive scores on here now, 'cause when you guys get whupped by some 13 yr old punk named Doolde_Noodles69 because he used an AR and royally cheated, you'll all be pissing and moaning about the same damn things. A sad day for the Revolution it is. One of the best selling games totally destroyed before it even came out.

You can talk all you want

[Muzzy Roberto]

Mark Muzzy's words. It'll happen.

[Gold_TSG]

Only if Muzzy is part of the Dark Side of the force.

[Muzzy Roberto]

ever play Mortal Kombat: Deception online? filled to the sudsy brim with cheaters. And that's MK:D, oneof the more 'iffy' series of the fighting game universe. This is Smash Bros, one of the more best series. There's gonna be cheaters out there so fast it's staggering.

Then why bother making it online?

Because people have only dreamed of the day they played Super Smash brothers at launch. Muzzy remember, SSB=2nd party, but I think actually first party, MK=3rd party, and what system did you play it on, not that it matters....

Also, there won't be much hacking at the beggining of the Revolution's life time, to short of thime to make modded hardware, and if the use Microsftlike material, then they can tell when someone uses hacking material, or the revolution could refuse to save any files made by datel or gameshark.

[Master of AFTER]

You guys are forgetting about Halo 2. Cheaters pop up in the online version of that game all the time, but they don't run the show because Microsoft bans their asses and because Bungie keeps releasing patches that squash exploitable bugs and protect the game from newly-discovered forms of cheating. MK: Deception has fallen into cheaters' hands because Midway currently doesn't do shit for the game to discourage cheating.

If Nintendo actually monitors online activity with its games and cracks down on cheaters, then I really don't think it will be a big problem.
