NSFCD

The competitors of FCD's Singles Tournament waited months patiently for the release of the much anticipated Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Since its first public appearance at E3 2005, fans of the series cried like girls and spilled tears and sweat of joy. During this time, many useless threads and posts were made, including some spam which was let through. Within the mind of a mage, however, the idea for a forum-wide tournament sparked.

Gamree, the Green Mage of Whatever Land left his home for a perilous journey of rule making, massive PMing, and hours of typing. His Super Smash Bros. Brawl Singles Tournament drew in much attention and quickly earned popularity. After the long hours were over, everyone began their useless and pitiful trash-talk, pinning each other to their keyboards for a comeback. The days passed ever so slowly while the updates at the Dojo were made and read.

When March 9th finally arrived, copies of the game were stolen from the stores and broken even. Well, maybe not, but it sounds cool, so run with it. In any case, FCDers quickly popped in their shiny new Brawl disc into their Wiis without lifting a finger to read the manual. The members at the Eastern Coast were first to play, while the others had to wait either one, two, or three more hours for March 9th to arrive to their time zone.

A two week grace period was made for the contestants to prepare for the ruthless battles ahead. The results appear in the tables that follow.

Weeks passed by rapidly as everyone woke up early in the morning to go to school or work and return home some hours later. At the same time, they had to worry about their next opponent. Juggling time around was quite a task for many, but everyone was able to have fun in the end. The last two Brawlers standing were Gamree and DBY, those with the most smack talk and lengthiest posts. They held true to their word, but here, one would fall.

The final battles were recorded by the mysterious DBY. The information engulfing the match can be found here. Be sure to watch the matches to bear witness of the epicity that occured that day. For those lazy people who don't want to bother with any of this, always look for the synopsis at the end.

The champion of the Friend Code Database Super Smash Bros. Brawl Singles Tournament is the Green Mage Gamree. Despite the many attempts people made to take him out, they backfired. Sadly, the hacks of the Green Mage are truly unescapable. Few can fathom their works, but one day, he will defeated by a spikey kitten with nachos.

And whatever other words you can think of. FCD has now merged with NSF, making us one big maybe happy group of people who share common goals, ideals, and/or sizes. Have fun out there.

Summer has been around for a few days; yippy skippy, I suppose. Now that we'll be off school and sleeping late or working or vacationing, it's safe to say Nintendo's doing the same. There aren't many titles to look foward to on the DS or Wii, to date, but this year's E3 may disprove that.

The games which have been released for WiiWare and Virtual Console this week include:

As a side note, the Singes Tournament is still taking place as we 'eagerly' await the results of the battles between DBY and Gamree. The wait has been tiring, tell them to hasten via PM so that we can know who passes on.

There's not much to say this time around. Either that or I am very lazy and tired. This concludes the words. Dixi.

Ahoy everyone, just wanted to pop in to say we're on print!
Pointed out by one of our newest members, jANK, we made it in a small section of Electronic Gaming Monthly. I've highlighted the section where we're mentioned. Thanks to Level 9 Chao for the scanned page.

Here's a link to the picture.

Tomorrow marks the last day of May, a month made up of three letters, but lasts thirty days. A sensation of Summer begins to rise as the temperatures fly up, and that's not to matter as a gamer always keeps his or her cool.

This week, some more Virtual Console and WiiWare games were released. They are listed in the table below.

Next week, two games are scheduled to release. There's not much going on, but I have nothing to do with it, don't yell.

We may be saying farewell to May, but welcoming June and others. For any new people, be sure to check out the forums here; also, here's a welcome gift. Zelda says 'Hi'.

Lastly, Fish has completed his Super Smash Bros. Brawl review. Be sure to read it here; it's full of grammar mistakes and lacks punctuation. Be sure to rep him for his hard work. That is all for now.

WiiWare's second week arrives as more games enter. But yet again, they take up loads of space. Use it wisely. From now on, WiiWare and Virtual Console games will be added together. This week's include:

WiiFit releases this week after the long awaited wait. In truth, it is not a game. Don't buy. If you have Brawl, you're set.

Lastly, for anyone looking for a new DS, Nitnendo has recently released a new colour DS Lite named Metallic Rose. Essentially it's a glowy pink DS. It's nothing too imporatant really. That is all for now.

Note: No games will be released for DS or Wii, this week.
