Remembering the BROKEN Smash Games 

"This isn't a tournament, we're here to have fun" "I am having fun"

Finding out what GimR stands for all these years later is kind of a surreal experience

3:30 I've been told that, when asked why Kirby was so bad in Melee, Sakurai said that it was because fans of 64 kept claiming that Kirby was powerful because of favouritism, and some even confronted him about it. He made sure to make Kirby as awful as possible so that it would never happen again.

Z/L-cancelling was added because the devs wanted players to be able to use a defensive option really quickly after using an attempt. The original purpose was just shielding, but players realized if you tapped the button quickly, you would have the reduced lag but not be stuck in shield.

I unironically pop off everytime when I see a Coney video in my feed. This is my "before they got huge" channel I swear.

9:08 I legit made an igloo during that blizzard. One of the most memorable moments I've ever had

16:42 imagine not having a Wario Switch

For Coney, Z-Cancelling is actually referred as a technique in the original Smash 64 manual also called smooth landing. This was implemented into Melee but there wasn’t any actual documentation into the game whatsoever on L-cancelling, so no it’s not am accident.

Today is the day I learn what GIMR stands for

There's always that one guy who doesn't read the room and tries the grimiest strats during friendlies. I used to help run my university's Smash Club back in the Wii U days and one person would always choose Bayonetta. Would scare away newcomers who wanted to have fun

I'm sorry, this may be a hot take, but I find absolutely hilarious the idea of someone intensely sweating as they input perfect down-taunts in an infinite loop for 20 minutes, never breaking character until the tension in the room is about to break, the trivial nature of a casual match of friendlies rapidly dissolving into a wild conflict, and then the guy's just like "lmao jk"

Lmao I remember that blizzard in Maryland, was living in Silver Spring at the time. Same mentality of “Yeah we’re not going outside for a week.” Also that fucking Lupe Fiasco “The Cool” just threw my head BACK in time.

I think Z-cancelling was intended to make getting into shield after an aerial quicker, they just didn't expect people to press it and then not shield afterwards.

It’s funny to think all this stuff would’ve been patched out if it came out today. Glad we have the happy accident that is Melee

I'm a zoomer and I played 64 as a kid and did not realize how high the hitstun was until I saw Heeew's video

“Sakurai knew what he was doing” I always wondered what he did exactly for development. Did he tell them how to make the characters? I know he’s the main director but a lot of people think he does everything lol

You can’t convince me that the Luigi infinite guy sounds like something m2k would do

WHAT? GIMR STANDS FOR "GOD IS MY ROCK"? Thats the most shocking thing I got from this video holy shit thats insane

64 has a Looney tunes meets pro wrestling vibe. Love it tbh lol. Busted frustrating, but fun and original game.

13:25 Can't spell "GrIMeloRd" without GIMR.

Smash 64 is fun, but it's also very difficult to play, as you're constantly fighting with the controls. It might even be better to play via an emulator where you can use a more modern controller. Most N64 controllers are pretty beat up so movement becomes difficult (because you probably destroyed the analog stick playing Mario Party lol). But it IS something I recommend trying out if you're a youngin' who wasn't around when it came out :) I still remember seeing the original commercial with the Turtles song playing, and I fell in love with the franchise after convincing my grandma to let us rent it back in 1999.

Coney talking about Brawl Minus... I am in love, I play it and got into one tournament. Missed another but I'm a decent player. The game has changed a lot and I actually make a couple of TAS videos. The game is fun

2:30 If I were to guess its probably similar to L canceling, im 99% sure sakurai said in an interview that it was originally added to make the transition from aerials to shield faster.

Man.... man. Hearing coney reminisce is so nice.

Not gonna lie, my favorite thing about Smash 64 all these years later is how fucking dangerous it is. No air dodging, no spot dodging, you can get put in block-stun for like a thousand years before you can do anything else, grabs are insane, some moves do stupid amounts of knockback compared to the later games and all this and more creates a game where one mistake has a high chance of killing you regardless of your damage percentage.

There ain't no way GimR stands for "Godismyrock" I am actually in denial rn

I didn't even know gimr was an acronym

I heard that Z/L canceling was added so if you miss an ariel, you can get into shield faster.

As a smash 64 player, thank you.

i love how coney reveals what gimr stands for to thousands of viewers and then absolutely refuses to acknowledge it at all

Brawl minus was actually the first platfighter I played competitively. Modern brawl minus is very different from what is in this vid. For example wario is based around pressing buttons a second time to fart boost. Wario also has his full waft on up b, and normal full waft is replaced with a rolling crate which wario can ride on

64 looks wild! Only played that game once...

My money is on Poyo being the Luigi that kept doing the infinite

64/ Remix is my favorite smash game. I got into it within the last 3 months. So much fun but it is stupid broken.

Coney is actually really funny

Brawl Minus is still a fever dream that lives on in my head

The fact that Isai is still winning tournaments is nuts

I have played every installment in the Smash-Series, and Even tho i am not a Pro, i feel That every smash has its Kind of charm to it. Smash 64 with its Doll-graphics and OGs, Melee With its Brutal engine and speed, Brawl and its story Mode/(i really enjoy Brawl Doubles), Smash 4 With Miis, amiibos and Unbalanced trash (my Cousin and I used to Play Random with Costum moves and Badges, and it was hilarious.) and Smash Ultimate With its Amount of Chars and Spirits and World of Light

Seeing Luigi move around in the air like that is so weird considering his air mobility is hot garbage in the unmodded smash games.

64 is funny to say the least

I didn't know about Brawl Minus and now I want to play it very badly

Has coney seen smash highlights? That channel rules dude

Brawl was the funniest game in my opinion

This is so nostalgia for me. I remember hearing about and trying the beta for project M Wasn’t as fun as brawl minus

Happy to see the Lupe Fiasco love

I would love to hear some Project M stories! That was my first fully competitive game and I would love an excuse to remember the good 'ol days.

I love Coney story time

3:43 the only people i played with played kirby, and i was the only one who played other characters

Lets goo more Heeew

1:43 based

I'm very tempted to get into melee!

I was alive and in Maryland for that storm so I can relate to your experience of being a person living in Maryland. Acknowledge me father

Heeew is a RU-vid Classic

Coney should most definitely hack his switch for ultimate but pm. it would be a great decision

brawl minus was so fun omg if only I had people to play it with back then

Given Sakurai's more recently discovered love for fighting games like Fatal Fury, I have to believe L and Z Cancelling were just him wanting to add random tech into Smash for fun.

The title didn’t let me know this would be a reaction video.

3:19 yeah here's the timeline: Sakurai makes his character, Kirby, good in Smash 64 then makes Kirby awful to lead people off the trail then he makes Meta Knight OP in Brawl then again, doesn't make any of his characters super good in Smash 4 but then in Ultimate he's back with Palutena.

Reminds me of someone who I went over to their house and played them in starcraft, and he got SO MAD when he just couldn't win. He would give up so easily too, the moment anything bad started happening to his base or if he lost a few units he would just give up. The guy was just so mad at himself and started yelling so loudly at himself, kept repeating things like "I SUCK" "IM THE WORST PLAYER EVER" things like that over and over, made things so awkward, I had to just leave at some point after he had a particularly nasty tantrum after one game. Like what dude lol

Can we get this on stream? I need some Coney Brawl Minus content today.

hewdraw dark samus is sick

The last 20 seconds of this video holds so much more weight after what happened to Pointcrow

Brawl minus was my first competitive game

definitely hacking my switch whenever a higher spec one eventually comes out in 2055

coney : I don't want to hack my switch, I'm not a criminal also coney : I played brawl minus

Never forget the blizzard of 2010, pg country was hit so hard

6:40 song?

Two people I play with in Smash Ultimate take the game way to seriously and sweat like in a tourny when they are just in their underwear in their room. No talking, no getting to know eachother, or having fun.

Hope they put smash 64 on the Switch n64 thing.

I think I remember that blizzard, I was very small then.

It's me. I was the guy using Kirby up tilt

“Remembering the broken smash games” You mean all of them??

I mained kirbo and became known as the drill mizer

4:50 It's not. It's worse. N64 was 30fps

Coney won't play Yoshi's Story anymore....

Honestly 64 not having spot dodging is based

Today I learned Gimr stands for Godismyrock

13:10 song?

13:07 background music. you got siivagunnered

Smart of Coney to cut out the part in this stream where Mad Man gets canceled

64 best smash game

coney looks like if slime and ludwig had a lovechild

Coney loves Lupe Fiasco PogU. American Terrorist and Little Death are my fav tracks by him wbu brotha

Lol my man Coney!

Ah yes, Melee

Yup, melle, brawl, 64, 4, and ultimate were all broken as hell, Atleast ultimate got updated and got fixed by them putting sora and sans in it.

Brawl- looks like it was balanced to be more like an anime fighter with how much shit can be cancelled into other shit and how unbalanced it is.

Wario Switch

Woo!

Hdr works on an emulator called ryujinx, go to the server for a proper guide

GimR's name is a great noob filter for the community lmao

Coney wii songs!

Smash Remix be like

16:44 Silly Coney. That's why you buy a cheap tablet-only burner Switch off of eBay. None of us want to go to Nintendo jail. I heard Bowzer does stuff...

broken af

Brawl Minus

coney u r a brawl player. that game is just grabs, the game. i think that's why u like ness

Hey, that's me!

I didn't know you had a kid man you look pretty young for sure.

If you love smash 64, play Smash Remix.
