Yeah, I know I'm supposed to be an expert, but I'm rusty.

Besides, I need all your expertise on this one.



Whenever I play a top difficulty computer player, if I throw or fire a projectile at them then they can effortlessly reflect it in my face using the standard shield (so it's not like Zelda or Fox's special reflector, it's standard shield).

But I spent ages on training trying to do the same trick, but couldn't...
Is the computer cheating or am I doing it wrong?
I'm trying to shield last minute but it either shields it without reflecting or hits me. Can it be done.
I think I remember pulling it off when I was first playing it, but that was nearly 2 years ago! :-S

So have any of you mastered this trick?

PS. I'm thinking of challenging those Gamesville guys...
Anyone fancy taking me on on a face off?
The winner gets to take on those presenters! :D

I don't mean reflect it towards the sky, I mean reflect it right back in their face, like Fox and Zelda's special moves does, only using the shield.


The computer does it routinely, and I'm sure I've seen someone accidently pull it off in a multiplayer bout... but how? :-S

I would like to do that but I don't really want to embarrass them too much though. I do have a friend of mine that was thinking of doingthe challenge sometime during the summer hols, him and me are quite good at the game but i always end up beating him.
It's a shame they haven't had a SSBM challenege already though, they must seect the game at random or something, that's what I think.

How do you know that they didn't just get a mushroom and waited until the most oportune moment to use it to get infront of you?

I'm guessing it's the cheating computer.
Like in Mario Kart when I'm 1st on the grid, and I get a boost start, but the person who was 2nd goes sailing past me as soon as my boost ends, despite not getting one, and being in the exact samr kart as me. Why can't I go as fast as them? HUH?

This is why 150cc and Mirror mode are much harder.
