Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Online Meet Up Thread

 

NOTICE: The most recent patch version for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is version 1.0.8. This patch is required to continue using the online features to the game, so you will be unable to go online without it. Make sure you have enough space on your Wii U to download it!

 

It's been a long wait, but Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is finally here! If you have a copy of the game, why not arrange some matches with some of our other lovely members and also RedShell if you feel like humouring him.

 

It is probably recommended to arrange your matches in this thread instead of using this games messaging service, as all messaging someone does is send a message to their Miiverse. Miiverse can't even be checked whilst playing online in Smash, which can make this pretty unreliable, particularly if certain users don't check Miiverse very often. Also, try to arrange a time for matches in advance if you can, as you are more likely to get a match this way than if you were to just open a room spontaneously!

 

Nintendo Network IDs (NNID)

 

When providing your NNID, please also provide the account (Mii) name. This will make it easier for people to identify you when playing the game. If you would like to be added to the list, make a post in this thread with your details and add in an @Sprout to your message so I notice it. I'll, um, try to keep the list updated when I can. That secretly means whenever I feel like updating the list.

 

To add somebody to your Friend List, you can either:

• Go to your Friend List and select Register Friend. Enter their NNID and wait for them to do the same.
• Go to Miiverse and select Activity Feed. In the top right of the GamePad screen there is a Search Users button. Tap that and search the NNID of the person you want to add. Once at their profile, tap the Register Friend button to send them a friend request. You can include a message, too!

Of the two, Miiverse is probably the better way to add friends. It's also a good idea to let people know when you've added them here, just in case they don't check their Wii U too often.

Unlockables

 

Whilst you do start off with a large number of fighters and stages, there are some that have been hidden away, and must be unlocked in order to be used. If you want to have access to everything for your online battles, you can find the unlock criteria for such things below. Note that this unlock criteria is specifically for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. for 3DS may have different unlock criteria for certain fighters.

Was gonna add myself to this. But you took initiative! Go you!

 

I don't actually have the game yet. Because my local shop understands the concept of a street date.

 

If all goes well, I'll be picking it up tomorrow.

In inininnininin

Put me in the list! I'll be online tonight, playing my thumbs off! Is it easier to add people using Miiverse with friend requests, or is it just a easy to just add them in the friend list? Will the ones I add get a notification then, as in the Miiverse?

Edit: gonna be adding all who is on the list when I get home from work in about three hours, just so that we get an easy way to game later on.

 

Edit02: Good initiative, @Sprout! Would've thanked your post if I could ;D.

Edited November 27, 2014 by ArtMediocre

I've gone ahead and added a bunch of unlock conditions for characters, stages and Poké Ball Pokémon to the first post incase anyone is having trouble there (kinda doubtful but hey, I'm a helper).

 

Remember to download the online patch when it's available!

 

EDIT 1: I've also added some instructions on how to add each other as friends to the Nintendo Network ID section, just in case.

 

EDIT 2: The online patch is now available to download. Go get it on your Wii U!

I'll update the first post of the thread a little later, but I'll say it here too. Whilst it was nice for the developers to include it in the game, I wouldn't recommend using the in-game messaging service. All it does is send a message to you via Miiverse, which you can't read whilst online in Smash. It's much better to use this thread to arrange games with other members (preferably in advance). Also, apologies to @Alak for not responding to your Miiverse messages, which is why I'm writing this in the first place.

 

Now I'm gonna ignore what I just said about arranging things in advance and open a room now in the hope that someone enters by, say, 9pm UK time. If you're on my Friend List, join me maybe! Remember, it's Saturday night, so something is probably going on on those Animal Crossing stages right now...

 

EDIT: Well that went as expected. =I

 

I'll be sticking around though playing and whatnot, so if anyone wants to play, let me know! Here. In the thread. Yes.

 

*insert forever alone picture of your choosing here*

I'm up for some games! Haven't registered you on my Wii U yet, @Sprout, so sending a request your way!

@Mr\-Paul: Friend Request accepted and room open! Hooray for friendship!

 

Oh, and if anyone else wants to join, feel free!

Great games tonight! So much fun!

 

Sprout, you're too good. Almost every time it came down to the wire, you'd come out on top. I did better you a couple of times, though

 

Totally lag free as well. Thanks for the games @Sprout and whoever it was that joined us later on. Defo need to get more people involved and have some 4 player N-E action!

I'll be up for some hot action, just needs to be on a night where I'm not working!

Agreed, last night was fun (though it was a shame K.K. Slider didn't turn up for whatever reason)! There were a number of funny moments, but I think my favourite last night was Pit vs. Diddy Kong on Palutena's Temple. I finally managed to use that Palutena's Guidance taunt whilst in sudden death, and then you managed to kill me right as Palutena was saying "Don't underestimate him just because he's a monkey." =P

 

We need some 4 player free-for-alls, N-E! I'll probably be up for opening a room again today, maybe 8pm UK time again, so if anyone is up for it, come on in this thread and typey typey! It's okay, don't be shy.

Count me in

That was a brilliant match. A game of cat and mouse (or monkey and angel) around a temple that really is a too big stage for two people! I saved the replay of that one, has this got the YT upload feature of Mario Kart or not?

 

I should be around for 8 tonight

Sure I might turn up I guess @Sprout... martinist - Martinist - Martinist

Unfortunately, there currently isn't a share feature for this game... yet. @Mr\-Paul, if there is nobody else around online, then I'll happily drop out and let you have a go! It would require you to have the other three players as friends though, depending on who becomes the host after I left... Edited November 30, 2014 by Sprout

@Sprout I have added you.

 

I see some N-E members online but I can't seem to join them.

I'll have to drop out to add you. Currently mid-match. Bear with me!

 

EDIT 1: @Tales, You're added now. If you're friends with RedShell, you can join the game I was just in, or I can make a new room. Your call. Orrr welsh_gamer can just sneak in that room instead. I'll make a room.

Edited November 30, 2014 by Sprout

I can't get in a room I see both your's and RedShell's rooms, but both are full. Thanks for the offer Sprout but I'm not friends with whoever else in in your room! Hopefully a spot will come up at some point, playing some classic mode in the meantime!

How do I get my name over the character?

  Tales said:

Highlight your name (below "Player #"), and you can input a new name, or use one you've already set.

 

Sorry about this @Mr\-Paul, lots of uninvited guests tonight! Keep an eye out for drop-outs, ok?

Have managed to join RedShell's room!

Anyone still on?

(I think)

Sorry @\-Dem0\-: I just saw your bro's Miiverse message, tell him I'm sorry I didn't respond (because you can't view these messages whilst playing online). Get him in this thread too if he's interested in taking part!

Edited November 30, 2014 by Sprout

My free time shifts around unfortunately, I'll keep an eye on this thread whenever I'm around though

That was fun. Can't believe I actually won a match, and more than once :p
