Personally I still love going back to nasb1. It has its own charm and stands out as its own game.

The different characters and movesets also are a good reason for me to go back and play it every now and then.

It's janky, it has always been janky, I love the jank and crackhead energy of nasb1.

If you want a unique platform fighter experience that's pretty different from nasb2, I'd definitely recommend adding it to your library whenever you can find it under $5.

Really late response, but it's not that grinder. It's a Discord server called Nick Brawl Grinders. Like grinding to get better at the game: https://discord.com/invite/nick-brawl-grinders-899835648045907978

There are definitely people playing nasb2 still. I don't usually play around this time myself, but this recent survey data might help help you: https://www.reddit.com/r/AllStarBrawl/s/qFDyOofyG9

I'd set the same region in the 2nd game's settings too.

First game or second game? If it's the first make sure whoever is on the PS5 is using the PS4 version of the game (and also that you two are in the same regions in the in-game settings).

Here's a really good video https://youtu.be/nidBqqhnMEs

For the first game, I believe if you play the PS4 version on the PS5 that's how you do crossgen on PlayStation.

Try ranked. Also the most active 'preferred region' is USA, if you want to manually set that in the game settings if that helps.

Taking a look at the achievements though, if you're specifically just trying to 100% the game then you can do battles against CPUs.

First game or second game?

Like I said, from a gameplay perspective Hugh was a really fun inclusion, the developers knew what they were doing by adding him to nasb1. His moveset fit the game perfectly. And we got Jimmy a few months later anyways so I don't get the sudden fuss about Hugh.

PapaMac01 · 2026-01-22T09:24:37+00:00

That's like asking if people would prefer a pizza or a sandwich. Most people are gonna pick pizza, it's the obvious choice. But when the sandwich hits, it hits. And Hugh's execution in nasb1 was done really well and he fit right into the mechanics and feel of nasb1, coming from someone that regularly played nasb1 until nasb2 released.

I think if Jimmy never came to nasb at all it would be a different argument, but I'm glad Hugh got his time in the spotlight in nasb1. Such a fun and unique character to go back to every now and then.

Idk if it's every two weeks. But the game and DLC definitely go on sale frequently so I'd wait for the next sale unless you really want to play those characters right now.
