Nintendo shuts down Smash Bros. Brawl user online service
It was recently announced over at the Smash Bros. Dojo that the service that allows users to upoad things like replays and custom stages will be no more. Below is the following announcement taken straight from the site:
As of June 30th, 2009, the current service that accepts user-generated snapshots, stage designs, and replay data will no longer be available. Please note, however, that we will continue to distribute such data after that date.
Hmm, no word as to why this service will be ending or if it will ever return.
Oh yeah and before you get too worked up please make note that this announcement won’t affect your ability to play Super Smash Bros. Brawl online, you just won’t be able to upload user created content anymore.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl in HD
It seems that a YouTube user by the name of renebarahona has taken the initiative and uploaded a bunch of videos displaying Super Smash Bros. Brawl in 720p.
Now you’re probably thinking to yourself, Nintendo didn’t include 720p output with the Wii. Well, that’s true but it doesn’t mean its games can’t be successfully rendered in an HD resolution.
This was accomplished using the Dolphin emulator for the PC. To really take in the full effect you’re probably going to want to click through on the above video and watch it in the true HD resolution. The little screen just doesn’t cut it.
