*Sigh* Opinions like these are just silly. Not everyone is going to like every game. There's nothing wrong with the original poster not liking Smash Brothers. It's not that "he doesn't understand it" or "he needs to spend more time playing it", he probably just isn't interested. And that's OK! The one thing I can't stand is when posters assume that everyone MUST share their own opinions, and it's simply IMPOSSIBLE for anyone not to like the games that they like.

For example, I think that Kingdom Hearts II was one of the biggest piles of garbage I've ever played, while Soriku and leo-j think it's the greatest thing ever. It's OK that we have different opinions. (For that matter, can everyone please stop saying that Ocarina of Time is the best ever just because it has the highest metacritic rating, OK? It's a fine game, but it's not even in my top 5... top 5 N64 games, that is...)


1st bold: Like the opening post?

2nd bold: Isn't this a contradiction of my first bolded quote? "It's not in my top 5, therefore it's undeserving of it's praise" ?

It's not as if everyone who doesn't like a popular game makes a thread about it, unless they really want everyone to know they don't like the said game.


 

I'm sorry, but you completely missed the point I was trying to make with that particular example. I wasn't trying to say "you're all wrong about Ocarina of Time, *MY* opinion is right and you should all listen to me!" What I was attempting to show is the fallacy of pointing to reviews and using them as a means to argue that everyone somehow HAS to like certain games. For example, the most critically rated game of all time isn't even among my favorite N64 games. I'm just trying to show that opinions differ, that's all. The silly ones are the posters who keep insisting "you just need to play the game more and you'll like it!" - a mindset that is expressed all too often around here.

^BTW SSB on 64 is what I based both games off of. My main character was Jigglypuff. People get pissed when loosing to the worst character in the game.

Jigglypuff, along with Ness, Kirby and Pikachu, was the best..


Agree, I like playing with small fast characters, i suck with heavy slow characters


not surprised

who's the lightest chat in SSBB anyways?

 I think its jigglypuff...

Like most Wii games, SSBB to me is only fun with 3 or more people, and even then it gets old very quickly.

The nerds just eat it up though for whatever reason.
