Yeah, pick it up with A, but only when it is gray/black. You have a window of about 3-5 seconds, probably.
The greatest game ever: Super Smash Bros. Melee!

Ah I see, well i should try that in training mode to see if I can get it to work lol.
EDIT: It works MM, just stay by it and keep pressing A, then throw it quick, but it works

I have to Disagree. Sure it's a great game
for Nintendo GameCube but I think it falls along
the lines of Halo/Halo 2, GTA: SA, and Final
Fantasy Games.

Well personally I don't think GameCube games
measure up to X-box and PS2 Games. Also I kinda
think GameCube is for the little people.

The thing about Nintendo is, that's deliberate. Their key markets are kids and nostalgic adults. Emphasis on nostalgic; everything that company does these days emphasises it's history. But the point is, it's games are designed to appeal to both audiences; kids can pick Smash Bros up and play it and have fun, and adults can do the same with whatever depth of strategy they themselves choose to find. I've seen Smash Bros described as a simple button-basher, and it is, but it's also an incredibly deep strategy-laden fighter.
As with any Nintendo title these days, you have to decide the depth is there before you can find it.

It's interesting to think about how Nintendo approaches games, and how the other two companies do, too.
A little more on Nintendo v. the other two, courtesy of Tommy Tallarico again, from the thread about his review of SSBM on the G4 Judgement Day boards.
And another sentiment of Tommy's on the same issue later on in the thread:

It isn't that risky. Actually, it is quite easy to do. I found out how to do this during a tournament at Digipen a few years back. I was like, whoa! And then I killed myself because I didn't throw it in time.

To pick up Trode, just stand next to it and start mashing A button. You'll pick it up, but you'll throw it soon afterwards.

Hey, If you think your the best. Well i guess I have to proud you wrong. Here are some video by a team call DBR (death by r@pe). They are like the best SSB players.

Falcon
Doctor Mario
samus
Fox
There is no falco because they said that he didnt play with them enough. So they dont have enough footage of him

SSBM is a good game, not a great game... unless you have a group of people willing to play with persistance, there isn't enough compelling single-player content, because everything boils down to simply killing somone else. After awhile, it just gets too boring to be a game, and for me, it simply became a chore playing it.
Psycho Lugia, lets also remember that Tommy Tallarico is a very biased person, which means that his reviewing skills aren't the best.
hitmonchan93, I believe what Lord Broly was trying to get across was that, although it is a great game, it is quite overrated just like how GTA is very overrated for the PS2 and how Halo is very overrated for the Xbox.
Anyhoo, I also read the article in Nintendo Power and was...well...motivated to play the game again. I was surprised to see how there are tournaments not only all over the world, but also one giant tournament at the Major League Gaming convention.

I am really good in melee with Fox and Sheik.

The thing is to beat them better
. But yeah, I don't play the one-player mode anymore, that gets old just like any other one-player game. Fortunately I have a brother and we smash each other up regularly. We might crack Soul Calibur 2 out now and then, but this and Halo 2 are the only games that never got old for us.

It's funny that you mention that, because there are a bunch of threads regarding Tommy's alleged bias.
In his own thread on the matter, he started it off with this post:

Does this mean I believe him? I guess.
Oh, and for convenience, here's Victor's post.
Victor_"Batwing"_Lucas said:Guys,
Tommy doesn't hate the GameCube. Actually I know for a fact that he thinks it's a pretty neat system. He actually brought one to our Electric Playground offices that he personally bought at a Japanese import shop prior to the North American launch and he was impressed by the machine, the controller (although he likes the PS2 controller better), the tiny memory cards and the mini-discs. He has never agreed with Nintendo's decision not to allow gamers to play their DVD movies on the system but I was with him when he was unpacking all of the stuff out of the box and he had a "kid at Christmas" look on his face. So did I. The GameCube is cool. It has tons of power, it's easy to develop for and the thing just feels solid. That WaveBird kicks butt BTW--we'll be shooting the review for that product on the show next week. Tommy thinks the GameCube is cool and I think I even like it more than he does.
The thing that both Tommy and I agree on, however, is that there hasn't been enough high quality, original software for the system since it came out. We've reviewed a lot of GC games on EP and now JD and there are some good games but not enough of them. I don't think this is news to anyone. He wasn't impressed by Nintendo's E3 showing. Fine. I was pretty [dang] impressed but I'm a diehard, hyper fan of Mario, Zelda and Metroid and all three franchises had new games on display. That was awesome for me. We didn't see a whole bunch of killer 3rd party software at Nintendo's booth, however, and that was what was so discouraging to Tommy, because he's simply not as big a fan of Mario, Zelda and Metroid as I am.
Tommy isn't biased against game companies, he has specific tastes in games and he's very good at defining and expressing his tastes. My taste in games is pretty broad. I have spent more than half of my life soaking up videogames and I appreciate games on tons of different levels. I think I like different games than Tommy and I probably like more games than Tommy. Does that make me a better or worse game reviewer than Tommy? Who the [heck] knows? I think why Tommy and I have managed to gel as reviewers together is that we have a respect for each other's perspective, while at the same time we both have strong individual opinions that we can feel safe enough to express. I don't give a [darn] if I like a game more than Tommy and I know he could care less if he hates a game I love. We don't middleground anything. What does that serve? The toughest part of what we do is actually reviewing games that are mediocre. It's hard to have a passionate opinion about something one way or the other when the thing can be described as, "well, it's okay..."
It makes us happy to see the passion on these boards. We love that you are all picking sides and agreeing with opinions or agreeing to disagree about opinions or even generally being disagreeable about everything we're doing.
It doesn't matter what Tommy or I have to say about Tommy's biases or my overly high scores, you guys are forming your own opinions about us and our work and, well, we want you to know that we think that's cool. Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to participate in the discussion.
Cheers,
-vic
