Camera
Mode
Countless times
before the word "Camera Mode", or things
like it have come up. The all the pictures
on the Fists of Smash Brothers website are
done with angles changed and characters
upped, and this Mode is a way to see
characters in such a way.
Camera Mode can
be found by going:
[Multiplayer Game] ->
[Special Mode]

You find it
here.
First you must
put the Controller you want to use to
operate the Camera in the 4 Player
Connector. If you do not have a Controller
set, you will not be able to operate the
Camera.
The other
Controllers can be set to whatever
Character you want. You can even make them
a CP.

The 4 Player
Controller is exclusively for the
Camera.
When you enter
the Game a Help menu will appear. You will
operate the Camera in accordance to that
menu.

Spin! Spin! Spin!
Zoom in! Aim for the right moment to
capture!

There is one
important function that is also available!
After taking a picture, you can preserve
it with a Memory Card!

Now, by pressing
Z you can take a picture. It's a snap!
I-It really worked!
- A Button:
Save
- B Button:
Return
So pictures can
be saved to the Memory Card. But pictures
use a lot of the capacity of the Memory
Card, so be careful. (You need a certain
sense with these things, so you try get
some experiance working with large
computer Screenshots.)
Depending on the
compression, the amount of pictures you
are able to Save varies, so we can't give
a concrete number. On average, a Memory
Card 59 can hold around 4 to 6
pictures.
Taken Pictures
are found in an Album by going:
[Data Menu] ->
[Snapshots]

Just like this!
Look at all those Souveneir
Photos!

When you open
them it's like
this.
You can move them
around, and arange the photos. You can
even read them from other Memory Cards and
copy them to your own.
Using the fun
Pause option you can have fun showing them
to friends, or trading them as well. And
this is SSBM after all, so you can see all
your favorite Nintendo All Stars in this
pose, or that pose, after clever
photographing.
Although, be
careful because there are problems when
trying to upload these pictures to
websites.
It takes a
certain amount of technique to be able to
capture the Characters properly, but don;t
worry! You can Pause the game and still
move the Camera.
When it gets hard
to take pictures, a good technique is to
choose the background first, and position
the Camera. Then you choose place the
characters, and make maginifisant works of
art!
Regular Game:
Simple
Like I had
promised, the Regular Game: Adventure mode
is being previewed today.
When we say
'adventure' we don't mean it like in an
RPG sense, where you play something that
takes a really long time to play,
but a game where you beat Stages in order.
Depending on how you play, this mode
should take you around 30 minutes to 1
hour to complete.
While the Simpe
mode had the stages randomly selected, the
Adventure mode has preset matches played
at Home Stages designed after Gamer
Series' Worlds. Though the fact that you
fight the CP in the batlles doesn't
change, you will now see Adventure Game
elements included as well.

Stage One is from
the Mario Series. Look at all of those
Koopa Troopas.

Escape from
Zebes! Hurry! Hurry!
Though there are
no Bonuses in Adventure Mode, there are
times when Figures are just sitting on the
floor waiting to be picked up. Also,
various weak enemies also make
appearances, a specialty of the Adventure
Mode.

Team StarFox
arrives! What if I told you that the Voice
Actors came back and reid the
voices?
Like seen in the
above picture, Visual Scenes have been
included to play at various times. Don't
worry, by pressing the button you can skip
them.

An Intro that
plays at the start of the
Stage.
Stages have been
designed to take several steps (levels).
For example, after you fight Kirby, you
will fight a swarm of the Kirby Copy
Team.

And on top of
that, there are times when you can go to a
different step.
Also included in
the Simple mode are the 5 difficulty
levels from Very Easy to Very Hard. But
because of the many layers of that you can
play SSBM in, we have made the difference
in each difficulty level a lot more
obvious.
But, on the
whole, the Adventure mode is a lot more
difficulat when compared to the Simple
mode.
Also, we may have
gone overboard with the Credit Roll. I
think we designed it to be watched, rather
than for credits.
