Summary: The ARMS gene, a phenomenon that has transform society overnight, turning normal arms into coiling spring of unlimited power. In present day the popular sport of same name as allow those with this powerful and bouncing limbs to make a name for themselves. Being the third to inherit the title of Spring Man, Terry Springs, a overly confident young man dreams of hitting big as ARMS fight as his sight set on becoming the champion of ARMS Grand Prix. And he isn't the only one. From K-Pop idol, to Stealth Students, and even Mechanical Masterminds. Terry on the adventure of lifetime, ready to face off on the world stage with both old and new faces in journey to show the world what his ARMS are all about!

The main cast is 5 of the boxers.
Terry Spring as Spring Man, an overconfident boxer who is huge fan of Max Brass, wanting to take on his hero more then anything in world.

Molly Jeong as Ribbon Girl, an old friend of Terry who moved to Korean to become a K-pop idol because of her incredible voice.

Veronica Spark as Mechanica, a young girl who unlike her siblings did not gain the ARMS gene, result in her crafting a suit to get into the game naming herself.

Min Yumin as Min-Min, a high speed fighter known for her high admiration of her parents, only agreeing to fight if she was allow us it as advertisement for the family restaurant.

And Jay Benkyō as Ninjara, a university student from Japan who is joins ARMS for assignment only to end up becoming rivals with Terry after losing a match to him.

A interesting point I have taken is turning the strange yellow aura used for the Ultimate in the game into something else. It is called Fighting Spirit, in summary when a fighter is filled with such a unstoppable passion for victory, that they feel like their body is on fire, it literally release a burning aura that enhances their strength and unlocks the full potential of their ARMS.

Discussion How would you fix Min Min in Smash 6?

2 Upvotes

A few ideas I have.

- Nerf the damage and launch power of her arm attacks.

- Give her a new up tilt since her current one looks too much like her up Smash.

- Add the Brrchuk to her glove selection, and whenever you have it equipped, the left Dragon will automatically be replaced with the Funchuk, except when you perform the neutral attack, neutral air or neutral special while using them, you use the control stick to manually stretch your arm out and you can also move your arms in any direction. And when performing the side tilt, forward air, back air, Side Smash and side special while them, they have different melee ranged attacks. This way she'll have a few more attacks that would look and feel visually distinct.

Discussion Should Min Min replace Spring Man as the poster character?

11 Upvotes

She could be the most well known ARMS character anyway, and making her the poster girl would help set ARMS even further apart from Punch Out. That game already has a male boxer as its poster boy. ARMS 2 (and every later installment) would have a female Kung Fu artist as its poster girl.

Analysis/Speculation An idea for a sequel: the gloves could transform into robots.

4 Upvotes

The gloves would turn into player sized robots and the robots would be called ARMIMALS (a play on words between arms and animals). They would be CPU controlled and fight opponents for you using melee ranged attacks. And if you grab onto one of your ARMIMALS, you'll ride on its back while you control.the ARMIMAL. This way you can play as a character with melee attacks if you get tired of long ranged ones. Thoughts?

Personal Achievement Beat level 7 grand prix for the first time

6 Upvotes

I was able to do it with springman, and my arms were ice dragon, homie, and seekie. I also had more trouble with Barq and Byte than I did with Hedlok, I think because Barq and Byte have a tiny arena and close fighting is much tougher than fighting from a distance.

Discussion ARMS 2 will need a better camera if it wants to be for more than 2 players.

13 Upvotes

What if the camera worked like OOT 64's camera, except whenever you target an opponent or item, it works just like ARMS's current camera? This would give you the freedom to face any direction you want without having to face an opponent at all times.

Question/Request Where in the save files is is the number of Coins you have saved?

9 Upvotes

I'm just curious because I wanna give myself a but ton of coins because I think it would be more fun to just keep playing the mode with all the characters instead of just getting a new save file entirely or grinding out coins.

Discussion Thanks to everyone on this sub. I no longer suck at this game.

I few weeks ago I posted on here frustrated that I couldn’t beat the later matches in level 4 of the grand prix. I just beat level 4 and 5 in one sitting and I finally understand how the computer characters think, and how to use dashing to dodge their attacks. Thank you to everyone here.

Tech/Strategy Any tips on fighting spring man?

6 Upvotes

Hi,

I’m doing a level seven grand prix.

I keep dying to spring man.

I am playing as kid cobra with a slapamander, revolver and buff.

Any tips on how to beat him?

Discussion Is this anyone else’s experience?

8 Upvotes

is it just me, or are all the CPUs absolute shit at everything except the thing that makes the character they are playing as annoying to fight.

I’m asking because I’m doing a Grand Prix and facing Ninjara. They’re horrible, apart from the fact that they can teleport so perfectly, they dodged all of my super attacks while not moving more than a single dash away from their starting poin.

Discussion What if each glove had a long ranged animation (what they already have) and also a short ranged animation?

7 Upvotes

The problem with this game is that there's not enough melee ranged combat. Whenever you stand close enough to an opponent, your gloves's animations should instantly be replaced with melee ranged animations. You wouldn't be able to do these animations when standing far away from an opponent, but why would you want to anyway when you would need the long range animations more? And to indicate which animation your gloves would have, your opponent could be surrounded by a huge circle that moves whenever he/she does and it stays around him/her at all times. If you stand outside the circle, your gloves will have long ranged animations, and if you stand inside the circle, they'll have short ranged animations.
