Common Smash 64 Myths DEBUNKED

  • Smash 64 is sometimes seen as the decrepit grandfather of Smash. Not as cool and underground as Melee and not as new and hip as games like Sm4sh or Ultimate, but that doesn't mean they don't have a thriving community or common misconceptions about their game: let's take a look at some today!

    Even though I haven't played 64 in the past few months thanks to street fighter, this is the most accurate and in depth video of 64 i have seen. This game needs love, and deserves love. Play the game, enjoy the game, and learn something new. Bless Nate L for getting me into this game years ago. Long live 64. The most loving and fun group of people I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with. Nothing is impossible.

    I feel like 1 thing people forget is that another reason combos arent as cookie cutter is because theres no buffer here, most newer players prob assume its just as bad as the linear combos of the new games but 0 from 10 frames is a huge gap so it takes a fair bit more effort with most characters despite the hitstun.

    • @cagt3000
      @cagt3000 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think the high hitstun generally makes up for the lack of buffering (at low levels specifically), but yes if you get serious about 64, having no buffer is a bigger gap than people realize

      Attacking after a turnaround can no longer be buffered
      It is no longer possible to buffer actions out of hitlag when hit with armor
      It is now possible to buffer actions Out of Shield after shieldstun by holding the C-stick

    Something I just started wondering about; In a world where any Smash prototype was available in the public (Melee's E3 2001 demo for example), would tournaments have prototype brackets for the appropriate games?
    …Probably not (for legal reasons), plus we kinda got something like that already, with SSB4Wiiu's E3 2014 demo being played at the Nintendo World Championships 2014

    Talking about 3rd party controllers, RetroFighters makes a controller called the Brawler64 that’s not half bad. The stick is super smooth making dash dancing and full length pivots very easy, the only thing is tilts become harder than on OEM. In my experience a lot new ppl prefer the brawler64 cuz they find it more familiar

The smash con 64 combo contest is the one even I look forward to most every year and not knowing much about the game makes it even more magical. But if I ever get into playing 64 then I will for sure finish this video.

    • @cagt3000
      @cagt3000 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      That's actually incorrect - Stick Jump (Tap Jump) and C Button jumps have different properties, and each are very important to know how to use in competitive play. This is unique to 64 and not talked about often, so I understand why people tend to ask for Tap Jump to be removed, but it's needed for this game
      Having no C-Stick aerials afaik is common knowledge, given the N64 controller doesn't have a C-Stick

      wrong, stick jump and c jumps have both different properties in terms of height, you can also adjust the +y value with a stick jump with the smallest value being which is +53 on the y value and the max being 80
      so cjump with a character goes lower while stick jump is higher but you can adjust it using certain y values ot mix up but it's difficult, mixing them up during vs mode plays a big role with combos and defence play but take notice that during running, the height gets shorter for cjump and tap jump whereas standing is higher, you also cant't shorthop with stick jump
      there's also a 2-3 frame buffer for stick jump and it is not present with cjumping

    @buffbear7890 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Personally i can't get into it because lack of resources to improve, lack of players streaming it, nobody from my skill level, and lack of interest from local people i know since most people just stick to melee or ultimate. And if there is resources then they're too hidden because how are new players supposed to find info besides going on yt and searching for a character guide. Not to mention the fact that most people use the smash remix mod which requires a memory expansion pack, flash cart, and either retrotink or huge crt to play locally on a super old console. Emu will never feel as good as console because its going through usb and not straight to the console. Thankfully i already had this stuff and a steel stick and bowl from speedrunning so i didn't have to worry but for someone who doesn't it's an insane cost of entry. Not to mention you either have to travel variably far for tournaments hosting the game that have more than 2 players to play the game at all besides netplay. And yes the controller stick is really bad, borderline unusable for anything competitive unless it's total use time is under a month or 2. Steelstick, oudini or taostick is basically required to have any consistency in not brand new sticks.
