Posted March 4, 2008 Just thought I'd post this ( From Matt Casamassina IGN blog ): 1. You can't transfer save files. Game won't let you copy save file data to an SD card. Therefore, if you've got any grand plans of rockin' through the title, amassing all the characters and then hooking your friends up, think again. 2. I'm pretty sure so far that online play is region locked despite Nintendo's original promises. I haven't connected with anybody from Japan and, in fact, have only played against U.S. residents. 3. All of our play tests with the import version of Brawl featured very smooth-running online play against friends between SF and LA. However, Boz and I have been trying online play with the American build and it's been pretty laggy so far. Not sure what that's all about. Hopefully the situation improves by the time the game officially releases. 4. Text communication during online matches with friends doesn't appear to have been censored. I tested this online with the dirtiest, raunchiest words I could think of and was surprised to see that they found Bozon on the other end of the connection, no problem. 5. This game is fun.

Posted March 4, 2008 Cool, what IGN do need to test if American and Japanese friend code swaps work or if Nintendo have blocked that also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 4, 2008 Wait, so you can't move your SSBB data to your SD card, so we're gonna be stuck with a 128 block save file forever? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 5, 2008 christ. I hate not being able to move saves. The buggers did the same with F-Zero GX. I bought a massive 1019 memory card, only to find i still had to keep the 59 GX was on. If they want to stop me dishing out my save, why not link it to my Wii console number, a la, VC titles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 5, 2008 Wait, so you can't move your SSBB data to your SD card, so we're gonna be stuck with a 128 block save file forever? It was pretty much a given with a game like Brawl. Sucks ey. Soon our Wiis will be full of unmovable files and Nintendo will have this to say: "You don't need a Hard Drive; you just simply need to delete your old saved games and copy the saves you can move from your SD Card and lick Iwata's ring" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 5, 2008 I just hope they come up with a way of being able to copy the Brawl save file when their next console comes out. I won't want to have to keep getting my Wii out whenever I want to play Brawl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 5, 2008 I woul;d do it but I dont want the fuss of having to use the freeloader every time, and the risk of it not working due to updates to the Wii and so forth so I will reluctantly twaddle on and wait for June 6th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
