[quote name='io']OK, clearly I can't read 352 pages of this thread. I've just started into the game seriously within the last few days and I'm trying to unlock characters/stages for my kids. I got Toon Link completely by chance as I killed him somehow when he was only hurt 40% or so (after trying about 8 times before that with no success). Then my 5 year-old managed to beat Jigglypuff easily which was a relief because it is a serious pain in the ass to get to that part of the level. Why is Nintendo pulling this crap these days? It is like with Strikers where you have to play all 10 of those damn qualifiers, which are easy as pie, in order to face a near impossible challenger. Lose to him and you have to start the damn qualifiers all over again

. SSBB is not as bad, but it is a bit of a repetitive, boring trek out to the challenges. Anyway, my son can't get Wolf hurt in the slightest even though he had such an easy time with Jigglypuff so I think it is up to me.
Then I read about another way to get Wolf - OK, so you beat the Boss Battles with Fox. Well, took me about 15 tries on easy to do so (though I have all the patterns down pretty well now - it's just that last guy that gives me problems though his ring attacks don't seem to be as bad as they are in SSE). I expected to unlock Wolf as the FAQ suggested. NO, DAMMIT - I have to

ing fight him again - unbelievable! Of course I didn't beat him since he seems to be an order of magnitude tougher than the others. Any tips? Any particular characters or sticker combos you can use to help out? I guess I'll go back to the SSE method of getting to him as that is WAY shorter than going through the Boss Battles.
Another wierd thing - I had *never* been able to figure out the Home Run deal in SSBB. I could never get it to do more than slide off the end of the platform. Then I noticed there was a movie saved of Lucas hitting it over 2000. OK, so you throw the bat a bit then pound on it. I decided to try that and after a few tries I actually blasted that thing like 1200 and an inch, which is lucky as all get out because you unlock something at 1200. Now, however, I can't repeat my feat in the slightest. It seems you have to wait until the countdown goes down before the final swing but now every time I do that it just ends on me before I get a final hit in. Somehow or another I got this charged up hit the time I did it. I was so excited by it I completely forgot to save the replay - I wish I could see what I did :lol:.[/QUOTE]
Yea, it much easier to beat SSE mode then replay the stage "ruins" as much as you want until you unlock Wolf. The easiest way to beat Jigglypuff, Toon Link, Wolf, Allstar mode in Intense and Classic Mode in Intense is to play really cheap and use Kirby. Keep spaming down+b in the air(i think that right one that he turns into a rock), the AI have hard time adjusting or avoiding that move.
