too much for nintendo - melee movement highlight video

    A movement video showcasing the greatest instances of insane movement in SSBM, similar to a combo video, but for movement!
    Thanks for watching!
    I first had the idea for this video back in late 2015 (I actually finished a 2 minute video somewhat similar to this one back in 2016, but I wasn't happy with it, so I scrapped it) and I've been working on it VERY off and on since then, and now I've finally finished a version I'm happy with. Hopefully you guys enjoy it! :)
    PS: Just so there aren't any misunderstandings, the title is NOT firing shots at Nintendo. I love Nintendo, and all of the Smash games
    Also note: This video only includes clips from actual tournament or friendly matches between two humans, I didn't want to include clips from movement showcases in training mode to keep it similar to too much for zblock (Every clip except the ones in the credits are from actual matches)

    I can't believe how accidentally good Melee's controls are. Most devs spend their lives trying to design something like this. Sakurai just did it by accident, and then proceeded to decide that he didn't like it. It's bizarre that Nintendo barely believes in this game.

      True Roman They believe in playing it safe, the cowards.
      They had something here, and decided to be the old, backwards Japanese business they’ve always been and ignore the fact they could’ve made the greatest fighting game series of all time. Instead we have “ultimate” - the lame excuse of a smash game that dares call itself the pinnacle of the series. 2001 was when Smash died.

  • @Lep_19
    @Lep_19 4 года назад +28

    God I love this video. Melee's movement is so unbelievably complex and integral to the experience of playing the game, and the variety of ridiculously outlandish yet simultaneously effective techniques on display here perfectly embodies that.
    Movement in and of itself is the most basic of fundamentals and is something you have to immediately cope with to play the game at all, and yet its application in the neutral game as a baiting tool or in the mental game as a conditioning tool is one of the most intricate exchanges between players in any game or sport. The freedom of expression and non-quantifiable nature of the incomprehensibly plentiful combination of viable options makes for a system that is permanently adapting to the current meta and constantly developing the meta of the future. AND THEN it somehow also manages to simultaneously be thoroughly satisfying to learn and improve in and also impossible to master. *AND* it's inexplicably intuitive and satisfying to execute despite that multi-dimensional complexity.
    I've got a couple games on my list of favorites of all time, but none of them have a grip on me like Melee does. Outside of Melee I'm a speedrunner, and that's another hobby that notoriously captivates and eats away at the time of those that involve themselves with it. There's just no contest; occasionally I'll run into periods where I lose motivation in my speedgame and I need to play other games, but there has literally never been a time since I started playing Melee where I've actively avoided playing it.
    The new games are ok. Ultimate is a great casual game, and I certainly haven't put enough time into it to make any thorough judgement regarding its competitive scene so I won't go shitting on it or anything. But I will say that this is where people are coming from when they stick with Melee despite games like Ultimate coming out. It's not because they're stuck in their ways or insistent to never change or whatever else people say they are. It's because when someone says that Ultimate is a better game because it looks nicer or has more character diversity or whatever they are literally not having the same conversation. Melee is just a different beast. As much fun as Ultimate is to play with friends, it just doesn't have that same grip, just as Smash 4 demonstrably didn't have that grip (case in point: the non-existent Smash 4 community following Ultimate's release). The intricacy and replayability in what I've described simply doesn't exist and can't possibly exist in games whose primary form of expression have been neutered to the extent that these have.
    That's my two cents. Discussion is welcome, particularly regarding that opinion piece at the end. Good shit again GR, this is easily one of my favorite videos of all time. (Edit: trying my best at formatting here, RUclips doesn't like new lines apparently)

      and the fact that in reality the game is actually a rushed clusterfuck makes it all better
      I mean like.... the game and community is stable enough to the point where major oversights arent currently present... but the game is also so unstable and fucking broken that you accidentally create one of the most technically advanced games and breed a competitive scene that is STILL evolving AFTER 20 FUCKING YEARS
      also to add onto this... applying melee's philosophy to the movement of some of the games I've been developing has actually perfected my ingame movement and I don't need to worry about several design decisions that revolve around movement and get a fucking headache
      I only need two general rules in order for good movement in my games
      (1) VERY simple mechanic(s) that have a sizeable amount of bugs that enhance movement
      (2) the ability to discover more exploits through the interaction between movement bugs and map/stage specific placements
