This is for those of you who are priviledged and lucky enough to own SSBM (like me!), and those who don't yet.
If you go to the "Language" setting (It's in Japanese) in Options, and switch to Japanese, quite a few interesting things occur.
First off, Jigglypuff is now "Purin", Bowser is "Koopa", and instead of the announcer yelling "Melee!", a voice says, "Battle Royal!". You can see your character's name in Katakana. I wrote Mario's name down and registered it for the Tournament mode in Japanese. Also, the fans cheer differently. It sounds more Japanese. Duh.
Anyways, there might be more changes, but I didn't discover them yet.
I would also like to use this thread to discuss the game. My favorite character is Mario, of course. I'd like to know other people's preferences, and why they prefer that character. Information on fighting styles would be cool, too. It might also benefit us all to discuss how many trophies we all have, and give a few tips on how to get secret items and so forth, for those of you who don't know.
Pssst... Dr. Mario's Forward-A-Smash in the air can knock certain people out at a minimum of 60%.
That reminds me... I wouldn't mind giving anyone who wanted it some tips on Dr. Mario's and Mario's differences, and maybe some suggestions on who to use and when...?
Arrivederci!!

What if something appears that shouldn''t? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you''''ll find many unexpected things."
