The connection was awful around 8ish but it got better and me, Wow, Luinil and Shea got to have many many brawls without disconnection.

Wait Tao, iclim I also want to hit up the strip clubs in GTA, dammit life is so unfair.

I'm gonna make it an early night here! I stayed up until midnight all week (ignoring the fact that I have to get up in the morning) because of how addictive this game is but now I need my beauty sleep! Have fun everyone!

Night Truck.  It was fun playing with you!

Good brawls guys. I had fun. Is my Link improving? I fell a couple of times I shouldn't have... Like at 75m (yes, I picked it) I died just at the end... I don't know why I dropped.... Anyways fun games.

Shea, you do know you are a pain... Your Mario is very annoying and I have always felt that Mario is one of the cheapest over-powered characters in SSB series... So take that in a good way. ^_^ I did beat you in our duels once. But the other two times you got me decently. The last duel should have been closer... but I could not seem to hit you for a bit... That is your dodging skillz at work. Had fun, was frustrating too.

Good job Tao, you made our engine die on us. T_T
We were sorrounded by cops man!!!

haha, great fun Tao.
My Bus> Your Bus.
And the car jousting games were hilariously enjoyable.

Mario is actually really easy to deal with IMO.  What you're seeing isn't Mario's power as a character so much as Shea's skill with him.  She's really very good.

will the connection to smash online ever get better....like will nintendo get more servers or whatever needs to be done to make the connection better?

Probably.  SSBB had some problems right after it was launched too.  If more games are going to depend on the WFC, Nintendo will need to upgrade it.

Tough luck kid.
