For a €70 game, Smash Bros is really light on instructions!
Fired it up for the first time ever. I beat the ****e out of Kirby and got his energy to 147%, whatever that means, and then the time ran out and I lost. My energy was only about 100% or something.
I played another game and won. This time the time ran out and it went to sudden death and I punched Samus once and I won.
In between that, I unlocked a little boy character and kicked the ****e out of him. I won that fight coz somehow I did a super punch that knocked him off screen. How did I do that? I was tryin some old street fighter moves but none of them worked!!
Pure nonsense of a game!
that 147% is his damage meter. The aim of the game is to knock your opponent off the stage. The higher the damage meter goes, the further they travel when you hit them. Get it high enough and when you smash-attack them off the visible area they disappear and smack up against the screen comically or become a new star in the sky, that kind of thing.
I'm terrible at the game and don't know the controls so can't answer your specific questions
I'm pretty sure there are no "dragon punch" inputs though, it's punch button, jump button, special attack button, grab button, block button. Punch + Direction = Smash, and this charges up if you hold it. Direction + Special changes the special. Most people have at least one that helps you get back on the stage if you get knocked off. And you can double-jump. 0 -

The Street Fight characters have their proper moves, which is a nice touch

Awwww! When my Ryu amiibo didn't unlock him for play I just thought "screw the DLC!" so I've never had a go.
Good to know though. Or bad, depending on how well my mrs takes me trying to buy Smash for Switch with the child benefit cheque.
Ryu and Ken aren't DLC (for the Switch version, I believe Ryu was for the Wii U alright) - they're unlocked via normal gameplay for Ultimate, though there's probably a way to unlock him faster using a specific character path.0 -

How do you do the special move/finisher?0 -

Putting a pause on my second play through of Diablo 3* for Hob and it's really great. Organic exploration and intuitive puzzles (except for one so far, my bad). Combat is a bit janky but there are only bits and pieces of it. Don't know how far into it I am but hopefully it'll help bridge the gap between now and Final Fantasy 12

Theres a serious delay when played on the telly that makes it unplayable, their solution is to play with headphones which seems a bit off unless you own a 40' long mini phono extension cord.
Fun game, but weird because you have to play it Tabletop, and you either have to "own it" by Phil Collinsing out in public or risk looking like you're **** off both of you tiny radioactive penises under the desk. Alas there is no middle ground. Gives you a new respect for drummers though - with no click track if you lose the beat it's surprisingly hard to find it again without stopping entirely.
Don't buy it for the story the tacked on boy-in-girls-body thing is an unnecessarily fetishistic reason for the rest of the band to put up with their leader suddenly being **** at the drums, and it really doesn't gel with the pseudo-management game that runs between gigs where you hang out with your hosts friends, it just makes it creepy for no reason and zero gain. 0 -

I had a good amount of time on the Switch this weekend.
I have played a few hours of Hob this weekend. I like it a lot but don't love it.
I'm all for less handholding, but this takes it to extremes.
You have to wander around large areas trying to figure out what to do next.
It's not always obvious. I had to look at a playthrough on YouTube. Twice.
I know reviews for Mechstermination Force say that it's a 4-5 hour game, but I'm 6 hours in and I've only beaten 8 out of 14 of the mechs.
6 to go. Really enjoying it though. The scale of some of the bosses is incredible.
The equivalent of this has happened to me more than once --
