I wouldn't like to make spoilers ;) But anyway, I think there are some references. Maybe I'm mistaken, but I do not think it is a coincidence that Odyssey had this while Namco was negotiating with Nintendo things like Dark Souls Remastered and Solaire's amiibo. And also, Namco is the game...

1) Solaire has an Amiibo 2) DS Remaster was first shown in a Nintendo Direct 3) Oddyssey has some references to the DS series 4) Namco develops the game I think Solaire is very likely to be anounced during the E3 presentation.

Chance: 5% Want: 0% Not really an option, IMO. There is not much interest from Nintendo. She is an obscure character from the Japanese version of a Tetris clone. She was so irrelevant, that in the Western releases she had to be cut in favor of Pokémon. Nintendo is not going to give her any...

I think they know Mother fans are quite loyal and would pay for any official Nintendo thing that is related to the series. BANG! Lucas is not a secret character, but a $5.99 DLC :ness:

Chances? I would say 20%. He is very unlikely. However, if Konami was interested in having a Smash character, I'm sure Simon Belmont would be one of the proposals. However, I'd say both Snake and Bomberman, who belong to Konami too, are way more likely. Want? 80%. A whip-based character that...

Well, I don't have both systems, so I cannot do a proper comparison. Anyway, Wii2HDMI works on a buffer basis. That means that it has to wait until the calculations are done in order to send the frame to your TV. Since it has to wait until it is done, a couple of frames of delay would be added...

I'm detecting a condescending tone... I hope this is not the case, since you are a moderator. Anyway, keep in mind that my intention is only helping, that I am deep into the retro gaming scene and that I have a degree in this field since several years ago. Anyway, if you know how this works, it...

With a $20 dongle, you have lag. 100% guaranteed. And depending on the quality of this dongle (which is generally awful), lag would be just one of the several problems you can face. With a CRT, you have interlaced 4:3 mode. Unless you have quite an expensive CRT that supports 16:9 and...

I always loved to see an actual lancer in Smash from the Fire Emblem series. Okay, okay, there's :4corrinf:, but he/she didn't use the spear that much. I'd like some lancer like Prince Ephraim, but I guess he is from a not so popular game in the series. Another interesting option for me...

Yes, that is true. I don't see Doomguay, since not even 1% of the Japanese guys working in Smash 5 know anything about that. Neither I see Steve, since it is a Microsoft franchise. Honestly, I think there is now an understanding between Namco and Nintendo that could bring Solaire. Think about...

I understand your point but... Isn't that the same we can say about Captain Falcon, Fox McCloud, the Villager...? To be honest, the most likely 3rd party character to me is Rayman. He had a recent love story with Nintendo, he already had a trophy in Smash 4, and even his awful spin-off had an...

The best option is having an official component cable (YPbPr), so that you can play in progressive mode (480p) instead of interlaced (480i). If you use this into an OSSC v1.6, which is an amazing device, you can have zero lag in any Wii game while using an LCD screen. However, remember that you...

Hey there! I participated in one tourney back in the day, it was like a year and a half ago. I enjoyed it, since PM is the only Smash game I truely love right now. How can I know when/where these tourneys are? I'd like to go with a friend to at least one more tourney ;)

Not talking about picture quality. Actually, 480i is quite worse for competitive game, since it forces you to play at false 60fps with flickering effects. It's expensive, that's true, but it is an interesting solution. Here many people spent more than that on Smash 4 (DLCs, both 3DS and Wii U...

Well, that's why I would like somebody to test it. Many people think the best option is a CRT, but they are wrong. Most of consumer CRTs are limited to 480i, which means you have 60 interlaced frames (i.e. 30 complete frames). And also, American CRTs use almost exclusively composite video...
