Alternative Strategies in SSBM wusstunes 2023-07-03 | (possible photosensitivity warning at 3:08)Super Smash Bros. Melee is a highly technical competitive fighting game honed by years of high-stakes competition and meta development, and yet, many players will continue to play it in ways that may seem absurd to some. Even as players' gameplay has optimized itself further over the years, people continue to play Melee "wrong". Sometimes, these players even win. Here are some stories and examples of ways that players have and continue to bend the rules of "the jazz of fighting games". big thanks to: lovestory4a, @nonbinary, rienne, harriet, druggedfox, soulofficer, iBDW, unsure, keeta & more for their help with this project as well as to my lovely ko-fi supporters. support the channel, get access to early/exclusive content: ko-fi.com/wusstunes follow my twitch: twitch.tv/wusstunesfollow my twitter: twitter.com/wusstunes alt account for music, archived content and whatever: @Wuss2ns business email: matt.callosum@gmail.com chapters: 00:00 The FD Gambit01:38 Intro03:08 The Blindspot10:45 Two of them17:45 Gary gets busy 19:45 optimalternative23:33 The Reverse Counterpicksongs featured (in order of appearance)Jefferson Island Quarantine B, Madworld (WiiOPoke Mart - Pokemon Alpha Sapphire/ Omega Ruby (3DS)dice-dance days - Gunstar Heroes (Arrange album)last party on the moon - Gunstar Heroes (Arrange album)Cavern Caprice - Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES) Full Exposure - Side Pocket 2 (Saturn)Sharp Eyes [For Dancers] - Street Fighter III Arrange AlbumMain Theme - NBA Hangtime (SNES)Aspects_3 - wusstunesZelda's Theme - Ocarina of Time32 銭形ロボット暴走プレミアムリーチＢＧＭ - Lupin III World is Mine OSTGet More Tea - Yuzo Koshiro Quiet Insanity - Yuzo KoshiroOperations D - System Shock 2 Track 3 - VATLVA (Saturn)
Can Sonic the Fighters Beat Sonic the Fighters? — An Investigation wusstunes 2025-06-04 | Sonic the Fighters features a nine stage campaign (with an extra bonus round at the end) that many players find fairly easy to beat, save for perhaps the final stage, but what happens when the game's CPU characters are asked to beat that very arcade campaign? Well, I found out, and doing so was a very time consuming and arduous process. This is the story of how Sonic the Fighters beat Sonic the Fighters. Buckle up!

How Mechless Eggman Works in Sonic the Fighters wusstunes 2024-10-30 | The "no mech" variant of Eggman in Sonic the Fighters has only recently been made playable online through a fan-made patch that rescues him from the dustbin of history. While existing in the game's code for over twenty years, this marks the character's first chance to interact with the game's competitive metagame, and well, he's probably not great. Still, I think this character has some potential, and in this video, I outline why he can still hang despite some glaring shortcomings. Music list at the end of the video!

Bowser Revolution (Smash Documentary) wusstunes 2024-10-08 | Over the course of over twenty years, Bowser's position in Super Smash Bros. Melee's metagame has hardly shifted. He's slow, big and lacks much of a combo game. These factors, alongside poor results over the years, have resulted in him being seen as the game's worst legal characters for nearly the entirety of the game's competitive lifespan.But what if it weren't so simple? What if Bowser, through some mix of skill, luck and hidden potential, could do it? This is the story of Heavenly Bruised Pelvis. This video took a while because I got SICK!

The Rise of Competitive Giant Melee (Documentary) wusstunes 2024-04-29 | Super Smash Bros.

In this video, we will explore the oft-misunderstood game mode Giant Melee, the game mode where characters are more big and meet the players who have helped push the mode to new heights in recent years.This video was a project I started last year that kind of ballooned as they tend to do.

The Return of Competitive Dorfball wusstunes 2023-11-07 | Michigan Super Smash Bros. Melee is known for its deep bench of incredible players, making it perhaps the Midwest's premiere Midwest region, but its culture goes beyond simply high level play. One of West Michigan's most storied traditions is Dorfball, a game featuring two Captain Falcons and a Level 1 Ganondorf CPU that has captured the hearts of dozens, and a mode that saw new life in 2023, culminating with its appearance at The Big House 11 as an official unofficial side bracket. I spoke to members of the Michigan Dorfball community about the game and its history, and uncovered more of that history in the process. SSBM may never be the same. This video was shot in part in-person at The Big House 11, and I did so with a pretty jank recording setup, so I tried my best to save the audio but it is not perfect.

Melees Greatest Moneymatch (Documentary) wusstunes 2022-12-21 | business inquiries: matt.callosum@gmail.com Support the channel: ko-fi.com/wusstunesmy twitter: twitter.com/wusstunesmy twitch: twitch.tv/wusstunesSome say that the smash community has gone soft. Back in the good old days, they will tell you, every win was for bragging rights first and everything else second. Today, we're too gentle, too kind, to ever return to those days. Over the course of two days in twilight of Smash's lock down era, two players proved that belief was wrong.In July of 2021, two top 100 Smashers would come together in what may be the game's grimiest grudge match, at least of its modern era. This is the story of magi and mvlvchi, the rollback rumble salty suite. This set was something i saw personally live and had always said i would make a video covering if i had a platform. I have one now, so I reached out to the two players from this set, production, and falco-peach experts to go over this bitter rivalry. this video features footage by @SSBMagi , Mvlvchi, LoganSSBM, beyond the summit, rollback rumble, @Ludwig, armada and certainly countless more.Music featured in this (in order):jingle bell 2042 - snatchercorneria - super smash bros melee lucid rhythms - r4: ridge racer type 4 burnin' rubber - r4: ridge racer type 4digital feeling - gallop racer 2 whos next - street fighter iii: third strikeseason mode - gallop racer 2 theme of samus aran - super metroid ancient chozo ruins - metroid prime pearl blue soul - r4: ridge racer type 4 after the race - cruis'n usa ending 2 - street fighter iii: 3rd strike Fighting Vipers (Avant-Garde Beats Mix)philistine - no more heroes 2 moving on - street Fighter iii: 3rd strikeending 1 - street fighter iii: 3rd strike last wave - sega sst band the original sets: twitch.tv/btssmash/video/1080056461twitch.tv/btssmash/video/1080077153This video claims that CLM treasure BELT is retired.

Video Game Cafe & Lounge Jazz wusstunes 2022-11-08 | 105 minutes of video game music meant to evoke a club and all that jazz!! I put together a pretty big video game jazz playlist over the past few months, so I thought I would put some of it together into a themed playlist. I may make more with other themes in the future. It seems like some people share my tastes in game music, so I figured why not put that to work in a little playlist? I tried to put together a mix of some familiar tracks and some more off the beaten path. I have a soft spot of blues-derived laid back jazz tracks, and it feels like a lot of video game composers whose work I grew up on felt the same way.Let me know if you enjoy this playlist and want to hear more like it.

The Rise & Fall of Competitive Giga Bowser - Smashs BANNED Top-Tier wusstunes 2022-10-26 | LEGALIZE IT: my-store-d417cb.creator-spring.com/listing/legalize-it-august-2023?product=2148Since 2001, Super Smash Brothers Melee has harbored a beast in the depths of its code. A creature that, were he to be legal, could change the game's competitive metagame forever. For a time during the COVID-19 quarantine, he nearly did.When in 2020, Giga Bowser was accidently unleashed onto Melee's netplay servers, a handful of players would push the character to previously unseen heights. This is their story. This is Giga Bowser's story. This video amounted to about two months of on-and-off work from research to interviews to writing and editing. I hope that you come away with a better understanding and appreciation of Melee's greatest monster and the nuances of The Big Turtle Guy. Should Giga Bowser be legal in SSBM? Sound off in the comments!If you know more about the competitive history of Giga Bowser that you feel is not adequately covered in this video, feel free to DM me on twitter @wusstunes or email me at matt.callosum@gmail.com. I tried my best to be thorough, but I imagine there is some pre-2020 G. Bowser history that I missed out on.

TEASER: The Rise & Fall of Giga Bowser wusstunes 2022-10-24 | A teaser video for The Rise and Fall of Competitive Giga Bowser, out tomorrow on my channel. This could absolutely upend the metagame permanently. This video represents two months of hard work researching the history of Melee's 27th character, Giga Bowser, and how he briefly rose to prominence during one of Melee's weirdest eras. Is he good? Is he bad? Is he fun? Is he lame? People cannot agree. This video was made with the help of numerous individuals, including DarkGenex, Joseph Maorin, SkeletonSSBM and many more. I even exchanged a few DMs with Mew2King!Follow my twitter @wusstunes for more updates, and please tune in tomorrow for the whole thing.Currently having some monetization issues, so if you like my work, please donate to my Kofi (link below).ko-fi.com/wusstunes

the Story of Chicagoland Donkey Kong wusstunes 2022-08-18 | Fans of Midwest Melee have long been confounded by the Chicago region's love of Donkey Kong, a lower-mid tier with low representation in most tournaments. Two DK secondaries were featured in the region's power rankings in 2019, and another continues to make a mark on the big stage. Seeking answers, I reached out to some of CLM's most visible DK's. What I found shocked and stunned me. Special thanks to Azzu, JustJoe, Unsure, GIOGOAT, Ferocitii, iWater, Ringler, MattPopa and Kadence for help with this video.

Haier HTR13 CRT TV Review wusstunes 2022-03-04 | Retro gamers tend to swear by the unique aesthetic and fast response times of CRT TVs, but finding a good one has only become more difficult over the years. While many focus on novelty CRTs and high-end monitors, I found a happy middle ground in the Haier HTR13, a budget-oriented set manufactured back in 2008. The HTR13 is NOT a perfect TV. It's screen is pretty round even for a CRT, and its sound output is weak. It also does not support S Video, or RGB. Still, it has a few features that make it pretty unusual alongside the general stock of used TVs out there.I try to make videos several times a month about everything from gaming to cartoons to music. I'm still getting my footing on Youtube, and would very much appreciate any support from my gracious viewers.
