Unfortunately we’re experiencing some delays on the upcoming demo update, but we are extremely close to finishing.
We expect to have the update ready within the next 24 hours from this post
Thanks everyone for your patience so far, in just a little while longer smash balls will have returned! 😉

Of course they will still have to review their donations to make sure it’s all legitimate, however they had quite a lead over the other titles so this is fantastic news! Thanks a lot everyone who helped aid Melee’s return to the spotlight!
Last chance to support Breast Cancer and SSBM for EVO 2013!!
Donate before it ends, many donations are matched by other supporters!!
If you participate in the stream chat, be sure to mention you’re from MG!!
I apologize for the extended downtime, but we were getting reports of users experiencing unusual behavior with the site so I set out to fix it. Unfortunately it took a little longer than expected, however things should be back to normal now. Please be sure to report anything else that comes up if you notice anything strange (such as pop-ups, browser crashes, etc).
Notice: During the repair process some users’ with uploaded avatars on the forums may have been removed. So if your avatar is missing you will have to re-upload it, sorry about that!
For those of you wondering when the smash ball will return in SSF2, understand that we want to make sure everything works properly before we update. Right now we are aiming to update v0.9 with the smash ball and other minor fixes this upcoming Monday (Feb. 4th). The wait will only be a little while longer, please bear with us!

In other news, I’d like to announce that Evo 2013 (the largest fighting game tournament series in the world) is holding a competition to decide their eighth and final game in their lineup. Their current lineup is missing one thing, and that’s Super Smash Bros.! Evo is accepting donations for Breast Cancer research to decide what final game will be added to their lineup (whatever game gets the most donations wins).
Currently support Super Smash Bros. Melee is on the rise and stands a good chance at getting in, meaning it’s a big chance to boost the revival of the SSB competitive scene (and hopefully allowing more opportunities for SSF2 to gain attention for these sorts of events as with Apex 😉 ). In order for Melee to win, it has to receive more donations to than the other games being voted on. So if you are able to, please support SSBM and Breast Cancer Research!
