LOL Feel free to do ANYTHING to me, now that Brawl's come out, I know better....

Did you know it took me TWO YEARS to realize that there was a bat on the Home-Run Contest Stage?

I call shenanigans. Theres just no way. Its TITILED Home Run Contest, so you would automatically assume that there was a Home Run Bat involved in some way.

Plus, its kinda hard to miss. Unless you're blind.

Same xD. But I think we're forgetting the possibility that Meta-Kirby failed to realise there was a "Stadium" section for two years, thus meaning he didn't know of HRC and that oh-so-elusive bat.

Edit: Then again, many a year ago for some time I thought the Yoshi 64 stage was a myth...

Ok, there is no way I'm lying here. I'd usually just attack with a powered-up Side Smash, or the Falcon/Warlock Punch to get it maybe 200 Ft. Trust me, I was really REALLY relieved to finally notice a bat there, I mean, it sort of blends with the background.

Looool. That's pretty talented.
I'm pretty sure I always knew it was there, but the first few times I couldn't figure out how to smash with it >>;

It took me about three months to figure out the bat was there myself. The first time I remember I was Samus, and I grabbed it and smashed with it on accident while trying to do a forward smash. Next thing I knew *ping* IT'S A NEW RECORD!!!

I was exactly the same, I heard people get such high amount of metres and I was all like O_O.

You're right, it does blend into the background. I feel the same way as you

I understand the original poster.

I was very young, so I never really understood how to look at a game. I thought there was nothing there, so I just used DK, grabbed the bag, and walked as far as I could. And besides, the excitement to getting a new Smash Brothers game affected me for half a year. So one day we decided that we wanted to set a "world record" and get into the book of records (Again, I was very young) for the best Smash Home Run Contest players. That's when we found the bat and started beating ourselves up.

lol, when I first got Melee and started doing home run contest, I decided that I would just do it with every character once and then go back and try to beat all my old records. About halfway through I noticed the bat. I was disappointed because then I had to start over, lol.

You can grab the sandbag in Melee, while you can't in brawl.

I wouldn't say that, but really dude that's not possible. If you forget you selected invisible melee and yell 'where the heck is everyone?!!' that's ok but you cant enter a home run contest and not see the bat!! Worse things have happened to me though......
