WHY IS THE RED MEGAMAN GUY NAMED BLUES?!?!?
Because music puns

Rock (&) Roll
The Band: "Rush"
Blues
Bass
Treble/Gospel

Atleast it isn't as bad as Battle Netowork where every game was a pun off of technology and the internet

It's even worse in NeoGAF
4chan is just as salty but the other half is making fun of them.

Aren't more SFV characters coming post-launch anyways? And for free optionally so.

Because Mega Man is named Rockman. And there's Roll and Bass as well.

It's meant to be a reference to music.
And then there's Forte for Bass and Gospel for Trerble.

Funny enough. Treble kept his japanese name in the localization of the MMBN games.

I'm aware of the pun, but why make him red?

I'm thinking it's because an entire Mafia (+the actual beast) being called Treble would've just sounded dumb.

Don't know. lol

They probably weren't even thinking of the color blue, but the genre blues. Blue in Japanese is 青 (ao). Doesn't sound quite the same, does it?

Musical genres like rock and blues aren't translated in other languages. I know that in Portuguese, Spanish and Japanese, rock in the context of music is still "rock".

This is a pretty damn good Cinemasins

'How dare they add a popular character?'
Wow, that points out a lot of things I never realized before with Walle...

And why fake a voice leak for RIku? If anything Sora would get in if they were taking someone from Kingdom Hearts. Although Riku is sort of being made the main character over sora, even if you play Sora in the games.

So the thread was closed and a mod showed the link to the new thread. I clicked on the link and it...sent me back here, which is apparently the same thread as the old one. I even found my post from yesterday.

I'm...not sure what just happened.

Been watching lots of One Piece, and I have a question, any particular reason why the English dub for the anime is way behind the Japanese version?
All non-Japanese dubs for any anime are always behind the Japanese versions.

It shouldn't be too surprising. Translation, castings and recording need to be done for a second dub. Not to mention getting the rights and all that legal stuff.

Conversation I had

'Why? You're too old for this stuff'
For decoration
'You wanted to fix your 3DS though'
I need to wait till I get payed for that
'Then you can wait for the plushie'

And so in this month of the year, a little update of my avatar, with a fan-art of Shauntal from Pokémon Black & White, who's also my favorite Elite 4 member of all generations. ^^


...Also, what about all of those weird Dora avatars :confused:

If it was somehow true, I'm sure it would just be credit for something like him as part of a stage or part of Sora's Final Smash or something.
But it's as fake as makeup on a fashion model, so not worth racking the braincells over =P

Interesting.
My favorite Elite 4 member is Malva:



For two reasons:
1. She's hot
2. No, seriously

Actually nah it's just because she learned how to fashion from Ghirahim:

ZANGEIF!

I THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T COMING BACK! I'M SO GLAD TO BE WRONG!

Regardless, I expect Balrog. It's odd to have Bison and Vega without him.

And favorite E4 member?

Gen 1: Lance
Gen 2: Koga
Gen 3: Pheobee
Gen 4: Aaron or Flint, hard to choose.
Gen 5: Katlin or Grimsley
Gen 6: Wilkstrom

Not sure what's my favorite Elite 4 member, but my favorite Champion is Blue. You beat the Elite 4 only to find out your rival (who has been always ahead of you and hates your guts) has beaten you to the punch, then challenges you to one final match to claim the Champion title away from him.

What an amazing end to a great game.

Now it's Xenoblade time!

My avatar for today features Melia, Reyn, and *spoiler redacted* from the original Xenoblade Chronicles, one of my favorite games from the previous console generation. I don't think any of these characters are particularly likely to join the roster, but a man can dream.

Hmmm
  • Initial SFV Roster: SF2 + Alpha + New guys
  • First post-launch roster: SF3 + More Alpha + Final Fight?

Smash having that trophy and Project X Zone 2 already ruined the spoiler

I played Xenoblade until Satorl Marsh, and then I got bored and stopped. I want to continue, but I just can't.

Hoo boy that case is a doozy.
All I can tell you is pay VERY close attention to everything you discover and everything people say. Obviously that applies to every AA case, but it goes double for that one more than any other. The final day of the trial is going to own you if you don't remember several particular key details. And I mean OWN you.
It's one of the few times where I'd say a case is downright cheap with what it expects you to put together.

Don't worry. Smash Bros. and Project X Zone 2 spoil that. :p

If you want context, however...
Fiora is thought to be dead in the beginning of the game, during the Mechon attack on Colony 9, killed by Metal Face.

Later, it's revealed that faced Mechon are people converted into Mechon. Guess who ends up like that.

That's right, it's none other than Fiora.

I have not yet played Xenoblade, but I did watch an LP of it a while back. That's pretty much as far as I go with it.

Ey, it's not for everyone mate, that's just the nature of games like it. Kudos for at least sticking with it till Satorl Marsh though, that's a genuine "I actually seriously tried it" sticker for ya.

While I do want to play Xenoblade, I'm not sure I have the time to focus that much on it since I'm barely by my Wii U and (to a lesser extent) 3DS as is. I haven't even started Bayonetta yet even though that's been on my backlog for some time.

I'm nearing the end of Xenoblade. Of course, I ignored pretty much every side-quest. Story is great, by the way.
