Shout-outs to @ Mr. Johan for my music choice here:

For those unaware, I also play a card game called Yomi, and am considered one of the best players in the world. I'm not just good at Smash.

Is it like the Pokemon Card game? (not that I have played them)

 

[Raziek]

Nope. It's a card game (played with a Poker deck) designed to simulate a fighting game (through a weighted Rock-Paper-Scissors engine).

Not the Mjolnir tome 0/10. /s.

I can't like this enough.

Where's the obligatory Thoron tome tho.

VR Battle theme master race.

It's the perfect "K time to buckle down and work" music.

Got a Greninja preordered. I haven't had this easy of a time with getting an amiibo preordered since preordering Falcon.

I don't know what you're talking about. I stood outside for two hours to get mine.

Well I mean outside of me waiting for about 3 hours, Greninja has caused the least amount of trouble getting preordered/acquired. Every other amiibo I ether had to go online and pay a bit extra or they were common enough to buy instore. Falcon however was an exception for when I originally bought my Pikachu, the employee working asked if I wanted to preorder any other amiibos, which Falcon was one of which I could preorder. I got him a day or two before the release day with no problems what so ever.

 

[Kotor]

Unfortunately, I can't get because I'll be in college for the entire day, and even if I go to Toys R Us, most likely all of his pre-orders will be sold out. But enough about sadness. St. Garon would not want that. Instead, let's look at what the creative community has done with the wave 4 amiibo. Here we see Ticcy customized her amiibo's hair to have her MU's hair style and color.

I'm shocked people are getting a hold of that easily. I suppose it makes sense for though. Most people I know stopped liking him the moment they announced .


On a related note, this is the best thing ever.

 

[RadiantTactician]

Wish I could get Greninja, but there isn't a TRU here within any reasonable distance here.

This is actually the most trouble I've been through so far, other than fighting with Best Buy about my Pit. It'll probably pale in comparison to getting my Shulk and MK from the post office, but we'll leave that tale for another day, like the one on which it occurs.

Otherwise I've ordered early and often, or from overseas, and had some pretty interesting luck overall.

No other Amiibo have surfaced for preorder yet here.

I have mine safely done, so it doesn't matter.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @ RadiantTactician !!!

My apologizes for saying this a day late but I was busy with family yesterday. I hope you had an awesome birthday nevertheless!

Got here just in time!

Also how is everyone feeling about 's inclusion in Pokkén Tournament?

Not Hawlucha. Couldn't care less.

 

[Moydow]

No sign of preorders for the next waves of amiibo here yet. The only ones I want from the last waves are and maybe the yarn Yoshi, and those are some of the later ones, so they probably won't be up for preorder for a while yet.

 

[ThunderSageNun]

Speak the name "Hawlucha," and @Weeman shall appear.

I was expecting him. I mean come on; a ghost-type is 100% necessary, and who better fits the bill than Gengar?

 

[Kenith]

I was expecting a him. I mean come on; a ghost-type is 100% necessary, and who better fits the bill than Gengar?

Golurk is a Ghost type and he'd be a great fit for a fighting game.
Of course...Gengar is better.
But neither are Hawlucha.

 

[Wintropy]

I can't tell if DoA is an amazing fighter with engaging character designs and an in-depth battle engine or a cynical attempt at playing up to anime stereotypes and a pop culture adoration for bouncing bosoms.

Either way, it's hella fun.

 

[Zantetsugun]

Yeah, it seems like they are trying to make sure every type has a representative.

Golurk is a Ghost type and he'd be a great fit for a fighting game.
Of course...Gengar is better.
But neither are Hawlucha.

Wouldn't Golurk be too big for a fighting game?

But if Hawlucha's not in, there will be anarchy...

I can't tell if DoA is an amazing fighter with engaging character designs and an in-depth battle engine or a cynical attempt at playing up to anime stereotypes and a pop culture adoration for bouncing bosoms.

Either way, it's hella fun.

Can't it be both?
(But I completely agree, it's a pretty awesome series)

What kind of "engaging character designs" are you talking about, Wintropy?

Hawt :3c
Thanks Syrek!

Course everyone gets chatty as I'm heading to bed. Let's do this thing then.

As a man who appreciates the importance of rocking a good pair of shades, I approve this message.

Money's on bosoms. Bosoms 2:1, place your bets.

More serious note, one of these days I should probably play it, but I get destroyed in every fighter but Smash.
And Smash.

I want those yarn Yoshi with an unrivaled passion. Adorable, fuzzy, collectibles hits right in the center of my weak point Venn diagram.

You aiming for the Splatoon set too, or did you not mention 'em since they've essentially come and gone?

 

[LIQUID12A]

This man gets it.

Golurk for Pokken.

For Pokken. Case closed.

 

[Kenith]

Golurk for Pokken.

I'm not actually a fan of Golurk but it'd be cool to see a huge golem playable in it.
But seriously, I badly want Hawlucha in that game. Greninja beat him to Smash, hopefully it can be the other way around in Pokken.

 

[Baskerville]

When's Torterra?

 

[Raziek]

I used to like DoA, but then I realized that the balance of the game is pretty meh and Soul Calibur completely outclasses it as a 3D fighter.

Then I also realized Senran Kagura completely outclasses it in the bosom department.

So after trying DoA5 and not particularly liking it, the series has fallen by the wayside for me.

Golurk, to me, fits the bill of heavyweight fighter that deals damage and is normally slow, like Bane, Zeus, Nemesis T-Type, Hulk, Zangief and Hugo.

Plus it's among my favorite non-legendaries.

For Pokken. Case closed.

Almost a given, really.

 

[Wintropy]

I play Marie Rose, the character with by far and away the smallest bust size of any character, men included.

You tell me.

I think Tekken is a better fighter, and I can take or leave jiggle physics (I turn it off when I play - I don't need that kind of distraction when I'm trying to learn), but since I got the Core Fighters pack for free, it's kinda hard to say I'm not having fun.

Oh, that's an unfair comparison. Soulcalibur is Soulcalibur.
Soulcalibur 2 is bliss. Shame Soulcalibur 5 and Lost Swords were both horrible and killed the franchise forever.

 

[Wintropy]

I like Soul Calibur V.

That said, 99% of my experience with that game is creating new characters and sharing them with the world, but of course, it's that little detail that sets the game apart from its competitors as far as I'm concerned.

 

[ThunderSageNun]

I'm not a fan of 3D fighters in general myself, don't feel comfortable with their controls.

 

[Moydow]

You aiming for the Splatoon set too, or did you not mention 'em since they've essentially come and gone?

Nah, not really interested in them. I'll probably pick the game itself up, but I can take or leave the amiibos.
