Is it safe to download Project M on the Wii Menu on my Wii U? I'm a little skeptical about all this.

First of all, the top knot is supposed to look like hair, not feathers. Samurais, being Japanese, had black hair.

Second of all, just because you don't like something doesn't mean the people who made it know nothing about artistic design. I'm willing to bet they know more about artistic design and have put more thought into the costumes than you.

Third of all, the PMBR didn't come up with the design for this costume themselves. It's based off of one of Dedede's appearances in the Kirby games. Do a little research before you act like you know things.
Excuse me for not knowing everything about Kirby games? The only one I ever played was Super Delux, and even then I barely played it.

All the other PM costumes thus far have been more or less original, with the exception of the Light Suit Samus. Why wouldn't I assume this was an original creation?

Also, wow, can I not think something is ugly wothout you getting so completely buttblasted? Rude much? I didn't insult your mother, I said a color scheme was ugly. I like everything else about the costume. Stay mad, then.

Yes it is. But there is one thing you have to keep in mind, though with the wii U. You have to put the SD Card in after you boot up the Wii Menu thing. Otherwise, the Wii U will try to delete the data on the SD card not knowing what it is.

So, whenever I finish playing Project M, I would have to remove the SD Card whenever I go back to the Wii U menu or turning it off. And when I start playing it again I can put the SD Card back into the slot while on the Wii Menu.

Again, I had no idea this was an official getup. It doesn't change my opinion of it as an ugly color scheme. PM has done plenty of original costumes or ones inspired by other things, I don't think it's outlandish to change the red to a more fitting color.

The costume is cute...
But hopefully this doesn't disqualify the more iconic Masked Dedede

Thinking more on it, also. The Quick start menu will allow you to bypass this by going straight to the Wii menu. So you could just do that, also. The info I got it from was before the update existed.

No, that's really not correct. The only characters who's alt design isn't completely based off something that already exists are DK, Lucario, Squirtle, and ROB... kind of. Everything else is taken from another game.

Awesome. Nostalgic and brilliant.

I'd love to see a new costume for Ness wearing Ninten's style of clothing.

And for Wario, though I haven't played this game, I'd like to see Wario: Master of Disguise costume.

Which was enough for me to assume this was original, since I had never seen or heard of it before. We wouldn't even be having this insipid conversation if @ The Derrit The Derrit had simply mentioned that this was from Kirby Super Star or whatever, but alas.

I still think it looks ugly. Wanna fight about it? SmashFromThePast sure had some choice words.

Enough to assume it's original? Dude, that's 4 out of the 17 existing alternates that are original designs. Why wouldn't you assume vice-versa?

So you do want to fight about it?

I am not a Kirby fan outside of Smash. I know next to nothing about those games and I don't enjoy playing them. Why is it hard to understand that since I had never seen anything remotely like Dedede's costume up there, that I assumed it was another original design? It wasn't mentioned in the original post nor in the first dozen or so comments. I feel I made a reasonable mistake. Get off my case and stay mad.

Knock it off.

The only person mad here is you. Getting the last word is not the be all end all here. All you had to say was 'I didn't know, still not a fan,' and left it at that. No one else is throwing out fighting words, so just stop please. Plenty of other people here have been able to say they didn't like it civilly, I'm sure you can do the same.

Honestly, I am not fond of the design. It is not aesthetically pleasing, I feel comfortable asserting such because I enjoy every other costume. So one bad costume is no fur off my back.

Nope. Most are very accurate or slightly altered interpretations of costumes designed by Nintendo.

Also, wow, can I not think something is ugly wothout you getting so completely buttblasted? Rude much?
It wasn't that you thought it was ugly. It was your little jab about the PMBR not knowing "artistic design" when in reality it was you who was lacking in knowledge, but don't let that stop you from getting overly defensive.

None of the PM alt costumes are original creations. They are all nods to other games. You are extremely ignorant about these things.

There is no justification for the rude way in which you were talking to me. Don't even start. Derrit is already on my back.

This is so ****ing beside the point by now, it's not even funny.

How about Lucario's outfit, huh? I play a lot of Pokemon. I understand the Focus Sash and such, but the karate gi getup is an original design. Now get off your high horse and leave me alone.

Here's a quote from the OP.

"This week's costume is inspired by the Kirby Super Star Quick Draw minigame: it belongs to none other than Shogun Dedede!"

So another reason why your mistake isn't really reasonable. And no, I don't want to "fight", I want to put up a reasonable argument against you. I was also never really mad, but I might not say the same for you.

I didn't edit in that bold text, by the way.

Derrit added that in after the fact. Drop it.
