Here is my first random batch:

APZonerunner

BONUS: Great level, or greatest level?

sushiboy

APZonerunner: That is a nice stage. Where might I get it?

UncleSporky

BEHOLD MY MATURITY!



I didn't know you could do this!







Oh god what have I done, goodbye cruel world



Also sometimes the C4 is in the shape of a butterfly!





W-what were you doing under the box with that midget?!



Oh...they've encased him in carbonite. He should be quite well-protected -- if he survives the freezing process, that is.

Wow, Nintendo games really do screenshot badly.

HyperAquaBlast

Wait wait wait wait WAIT........cel-shaded Link is not cel-shaded in this game? Thats fucking disgusting.

God damn do I love Solid Snake.

It's a combination of things. They really do look better ingame, but also the screenshots are compressed automatically, presumably to save space on the Wii.

I was going to make this thread myself, but I lacked an SD card slot for my PC. I ordered a cheap SD to USB card that I should get within the week.

You can also share custom stages too, right? How about adding those to this thread?

What about video replays, can those be shared too?

I actually think non-cel-shaded cel-shaded Link looks pretty cool.

Yeah, I know it looks better in motion, it's just weird how much better it looks.

This is my world record time with Target Test 3. 15.26 seconds (the unlock challenge requires less than 20 seconds). And I do it in a very strange way, backwards, without using any items.

To watch it, put it on an SD card in the private/wii/app/RSBE/rp folder.

His expressions are to die for.
Being launched looks so painful.

Ultrachrist

Wow I never noticed that th C4 looks like a butterfly sometimes. That is awesome. Attention to detail++

If you'll forgive a Naruto reference...

The C4 is in the shape of a butterfly sometimes? That is an awesome and clever MGS3 reference.

This shot would have looked better if you could place trophies in the air.

How do you upload pictures form your sd card?

A card reader is probably the easiest way. They are pretty cheap.

You could also try using a digital camera that takes SD cards.

King Riptor

ZSS with a C-4 tramp stamp is priceless.

If I could find my SD card reader I have a few good ones.

AbsoluteZero

Wait... so does Brawl save snapshots as straight jpegs or what?

EDIT: NM. I r dum.

XiaNaphryz

There's a ton of good ones over at GAF:

Chen

Hahahaha, so simple yet so effective.

SirUltimos

Some of these are hilarious. Makes me want to try and get some funny ones.

Frosteey

Pictures~

I think I might've actually seen this one before...but probably not with a pink Luigi.



Pink Luigi makes everything better, after all.



Sonic fits right in.



Right in the head!



...



Karma.

Because of the jaggies? Because my first reaction to most of these was "wow, those character models and textures look awesome". Seriously, you don't see this much love and attention put into character modelling these days. You can't even see character facial expressions when playing the game, but they still put them in.

Yes, we already knew that when Wind Waker was released. It's one of the main reasons they went celshaded in the first place, because it conveys facial expressions so well.

UncleSporky

Nintendo really knew what they were doing putting those Animal Crossing kids in with their faces.

Well I know it looks superb in motion, and there are jaggies all over the place in these shots.

It's almost as if Nintendo prioritised making the game itself look good and how good it looks in screenshots was way down the list of priorities. Which is a good thing.

What filter do I apply to get that.

• Online Snapshot Converter : http://brawl.kakkoister.com/
• Snapshot BIN Viewer & Converter : http://ssbb.l0nk.org/

Quality Tips That Worked For Me

1. Use the Snapshot BIN Converter to turn your files into PNGs (minimum quality loss) (make sure they are exported to the largest size possible)
2. Open up the file(s) in Adobe Photoshop. If you don't have Adobe Photoshop or an image program with similar options, skip to Step 5.
3. In Adobe Photoshop, go to the top menu-bar and choose Filter -> Stylize -> Diffuse and choose the Anisotropic options. Click Okay.
4. You'll notice the image looks cleaner, but also a little strange.
5. Now go to the menu-bar again and choose Image -> Image Size. Type in a width like 550px and make sure it automatically chooses the appropriate height (if it doesn't, make sure the "Constrain Proportions" box is checked). Then, make sure the bottom drop-down box is set to Bicubic Sharper - this makes the image look better onces downsized.
6. If possible, add a black 2px wide border to the image for a finishing touch. In Photoshop, this can be done by going to menu Select -> All and then the menu Edit -> Stroke to add a border. Set the Width to 2px, Color to Black, and the Location to Inside
7. Save and done.
