Super Smash Bros. Brawl with Dial-Up

Many have been curious and have been asking me if Super Smash Bros. Brawl works on dial-up, since they have been playing Mario kart DS, Pokemon, and all the other Nintendo WFC practically flawlessly, and I've become some sort of ambassador to these people to work out the kinks and find what works and what doesn't, and how we can work around it to have fun. An overasked question is "Can't you just get DSL?". Well, the answer for most people is simply "No" and it's not because we're cheap. It's because where we live. You'd be surprised to hear that most places around the country still do not have DSL. But that's not a problem. Nintendo WFC works pretty well on dial-up. All the DS games are near perfect on it. I wish I could say the same for the Nintendo Wii. The Wii has 3 big Wifi games. Mario Strikers: Charged, Pokemon Battle Revolution, and now Super Smash bros. Brawl. The first game I mentioned is iffy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. You can look at my Strikers videos for examples of this. Pokemon plays like the DS games, and can even be faster at some points. As for Brawl, it has been a stranger experience than Strikers, and just not for dial-up. The night I got Brawl and tried wifi, I was able to connect, and try to play with a friend. It took 20 minutes to finish the match. I tried to Random Match. I couldn't connect at all. I was devastated, until my friend in California who has DSL said he had the exact same problems. So, later, me and my friend Nick tried to play Home Run Contest. It was laggy at first, but at about 2 AM when everyone was off the servers, the connection was very, very good. At some points there was no lag whatsoever. It was great. The next night, it was bad again, until late late night. Then, something happened. It just worked. It was better than 2 AM. Laggy a little, yes, but very, very playable. And that's enough for most dial-up users who want to play with their friends. It's been pretty much lag-free since, but I haven't really tried anything but one on ones and team matches, which, being able to do that in the first place is great. Oh, and Multi Man Brawl and Home Run Contest are easy, too. I just want to say, try to make sure whoever you're playing isn't too far away. I'd advise against East Coast VS. West Coast. Now, on to the video!! ==========VIDEO DESCRIPTION========== I'm sorry for the bad-ish quality, but I don't have a catch card or digital converter. I recorded this on a VHS tape, then recorded it with my digital camera. This video is meant to represent what time it takes to connect to Nintendo WFC in Brawl, how long it takes to join a match, and how a match is using dial-up. Lag varies with stages, items, stable connections, etc. So it varies a lot. Some matches will be better than others. I'm Sonic in this match. My main is Sonic. My friend likes to use Pikachu. We prefer to be on a team so it's a team battle against 2 computers. So now you know how well it works now. Expect more Brawl on dial-up videos soon.
