SSBB: Target Smash and Recording Replay Data

Glotnot | October 24, 2007 | News | Wii 
A 'Break-the-Targets' mode has been included in Brawl! We all expected this to happen, but it is goo to get solid confirmation, as always.

This time, each character apparently gets five stages with varying levels of difficulty for those that really want to smash some targets.

Also, we can record data on what looks to be any mode of Brawl....As in, record a short film. Only three minutes worth, however. We can then send it to friends over Wi-fi.
A target-breaking mode has appeared in every game in the Smash series. It’s a mode that challenges you to break ten targets within a given time limit—basically, a game for those who salivate at the thought of speed runs.

It’s outdoors now, giving it a refreshing visual appearance. This time, there are five different maps of varying difficulty—challenges you can take on with your favorite character.

Each of the five maps is distinctive.

Some levels have items as well, so you may be able to use them to cut your time even more.

Use all of your character’s skills to beat your own personal records!

If you fail, you can pause the game and try again. You can also confirm the overall layout by pausing.

There is another announcement I’d like make simultaneously...

This time, you can view replays. What this means is, the game records what you did in brawls or in Target Smash and lets you review it.

You can record about three minutes worth of replay data.

And it’s even possible to send replays of your most amazing times to Wii Friends! If you compete against each other, things will surely heat up.

It feels great to use all of your knowledge and techniques to shave off a hundredth of a second. But you don’t have to do that to enjoy these features, so I hope you’ll give it a try regardless.

    Man the break the targets looks like MAJOR upgrade. Five levels of difficulty and beautiful landscapes. Plus being able to record was one of the things I wanted most in the game. Excellent update.

    Eh, despite the upgrade to it, I still never really cared for this in the game, but I guess more is better in some cases.

    Break the Targets was fairly fun, but nothing special, in Melee. I hope Target Smash is better. Having 5 stages per character sounds great, though.

    Replay data is a great addition, though! Being able to record your matches and send them online is a feature in a few games, and it works out great. I hope they let you play around with the camera with replay data.

    Yay, this is really good news. I'm glad the whole thing has had a big upgrade, the challenge on the previous games were kind of dull.

    Well, the replay is a big plus, but still... only five levels total?

    Bit of a letdown, really.
