Re: Super Smash Bros Brawl...finally.

Didnt think that this would be for me, but saw it in Sainsburys today when shopping with the wifey and picked up another Wii Wheel for a tenner and Brawl for under £30...

Started playing on single player mode, doing some training and trying to forget all the years that I had been playing street fighter (the only fighting game I really ever played)... To be honest it was a bit OTT and bizzare to begin with, all that movement in the back was quite distracting, and I was like Hmmmm.... maybe not such a good idea.

Perservered though and completed the single thing with Link and started to realise how to use the actual game mechanics and different moves. Button bashing still works to an extent, but isnt as satisfying.

Then roped in wifey to play and taught her the basic game structure, and we played for a bit - real good laugh actually. Still have trouble trying to get back onto the main stage once knocked off - is there only one move that you can do to get back?

Had one online game and it connected fine, just wondered if anyone knows how to access your overall online stats??? I went to the Data section, but that doesnt include WFC data. Am I just missing the obvious here?

But overall, after having a few doubts, think that this will be cool. Worth a purchase. Now I just have to convince some mates to try it out!
