Smug cynicism only carries you so far, even on the internet.

 

What, precisely, do you find "pleasantly ironic"? That I would prefer Smash Bros. to stay the way it is, instead of trying to emulate regular fighting games? And that if I want to play a "Deeper fighting experience", I'll PLAY one of those regular fighting games? I fail to see the "irony" in whatever you're attempting to point out.

The irony is that for many Smash is serious business, it has a VERY competitive community, and the game has very advanced techniques that are much more difficult to pull off than the advanced techniques in most fighting games. I know, I regularly play Street Fighter IV, and I can tell you that some of the advanced concepts in smash just as cancelling lag, zoning, reflecting, catching and edge-guarding/recovery are very difficult to fully master.

The irony is that you know nothing yet call people in this thread morons. That's the ironic part. Street Fighter and others are not more serious business than Smash is for any logical reason I know of.

very true, and nintendo is already miles behind MS/Sony in the online department, but it seems the want to widen the gap even more, all in the name of MAKE THE GAME EASY MOAR SALEZ myth. Or remove key competitive gameplay features because little 11 y old timmy doesnt use them, so removing these features makes little timies experience somehow better?
