Any Jump players out there?

10:02 PM - May 5th, 2006

Last weekend, I played Jump Superstars with another human being for the first time and I must say I’m impressed by the game’s variety and strategic depth. How much of the screen you can see + the range of your opponent’s attacks is much more of a factor than I thought. More than a few times, I caught my friend from offscreen with Jotaro’s crazy range. I’ve been considering building a deck based on reducing your opponent’s view area with the (admittedly flaky) Dio grab -> Neji 64-strikes combo.

err… I’m talking gibberish, huh? Come on, no one else has the game? =( It really is the #1 must-have game—on any console—for anime fans.

What is Jump Superstars? Jump is a Japanese DS game that takes characters from the weekly manga compilation Shonen Jump and places them in a party-style, 4-player brawler (ala Smash Bros.).

    Fun! Ohhh, fun! I’d get it if I had a partner to play with.

    I’ve been addicted to Cooking Mama! It’s just so amusing.

    I want Cooking Mama T_T

    do you know why is the new Mario called New Super Mario Bros, instead of using other words like Super Mario DS, Extreme, Pro, etc.?

    ONE reason.
    “NewBigi”.
    Nintendo always copying me.
    “New” is the new cool word.

    Hm. Not so new. ::chuckle::

    Coke tried this back in 1985 (were you even born then, Bigi?) with New Coke, which totally bombed.
