How can I test the weight of each character?

I know one way is how long it takes a character to throw another character (i.e. it takes longer for Mario to back-throw Jigglypuff than Bowser), but how do I test it knockback-wise? Any attacks I can use, and what stage can I use them on? Blue Ninjakoopa(Talk) 14:12, 17 May 2012 (EDT)

While knockback can give you a strong idea of how much a character weighs, it's not completely accurate. Gravity plays a small role in how much knockback a character sustains, and is the reason why Fox, despite being heavier, sustains more knockback than some characters lighter than him. In Melee, a simple way to measure a character's weight ingame would be to go to Mushroom Kingdom, and have a character on each scale platform. The scale that falls faster has the heavier character, and neither scale falling indicates equal weight. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 14:47, 17 May 2012 (EDT)
I do not believe gravity affects knockback in Melee, though I have done no testing on it.
Incidentally I don't really know why BNK feels like testing this on his own, considering that the values on the page have been known for years. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Zesty 14:58, 17 May 2012 (EDT)
