Forget lofi hip-hop, this is a tune I can bust out and chill to any time of day.
Games I'm thinking of picking up:
Sonic Lost World, as I know I won't enjoy it but I want to be able to say I played it so that I can have a real debate about it with people.
Classic Megaman LC, because I enjoyed X LC so thoroughly.
3D All Stars, probably gonna get it secondhand because the last thing I'll do is support that anti-consumer decision.
Team Sonic Racing since Silver and Blaze are finally playable again (even if they're in cars and paired with Vector for seemingly no reason) and it looks like they're putting a decent amount of effort into the world of Sonic again.
Uncharted Lost Legacy since 4 is one of my all time favorite games.
Shadow would be such a hectic character to be unveiled in FP2. The community would be toxic for weeks.
-very similar to Sonic in their own series, making people feel cheated
-would anger those who thought AT's deconfirmed
-would anger those who wanted Waluigi or Issac or Zero instead
-would anger Sonic fans who wanted someone else much more
-would anger Sega fans who wanted a different franchise to be repped
-would anger Shadow's haters
-would anger non-Sonic fans who hate the series
And I would be watching the Chaos (pun intended) unfold.
I want Waluigi's neutral special to be where he does any neutral special in the game at random. He could do Homing Attack, Metal Blade, Fireball, Darkest Lariat-anything. And it's random every time.
Yeah it would be a competitive nightmare, but a funny one.
Apparently Ben Drowned just ended like, a week ago?
Alright, I've been out of the loop long enough, starting this weekend I'm gonna see what this series is all about.

"If you like a bad game, then honestly who cares?"
-Alpharad, 2020
As cool as Classic Sonic would be in terms of gameplay, putting him in Smash is (almost) the absolute worst thing that could happen to the series right now.
Me: Yeah, I've gotten close to beating Mega Man X a while back. Surely I can do it again!
Also me: is stuck on Armored Armadillo's stage for two hours like an idiot before I realize he has a weakness like every other MM boss
Holy ***t, Bowser is an S tier amiibo?
Aright guess I'm going to do amiibo tournaments now. Sounds fun and apparently I main (and have a figure of) one of the best characters in the meta.
EDIT: Oh, apparently he's so good a lot of tournaments straight up ban him.
Oh well. This will still be fun.
Got 2nd at last weekend's tournament. Basically the same place I've been in for a while. This time it's more impressive, because while there were only 10 people, I did manage to 2-0 Vika, our best Pikachu and second-place-holder of our most recent major tournament. Lost Grand Finals to the same Sonic main as the week before, and the week before, etc. He's a demon of sorts for me. Hopefully I can find a way to take him down next week, or at the very least not get 3-0'd.
Here it is-my complete Sonic games tier list. If I didn't play a game like Shadow The Hedgehog or Secret Rings, I ranked based on what seemed to be the general consensus. The games I did play, I ranked on my personal enjoyment.
Let me know if the link doesn't work for some reason.
Edit: It doesn't, so here's some screenshots.
The question is inarguable if Sega should make Sonic Adventure 3. It's been clamored for for years, it's gotten the least attention of any gameplay style and yet remains the second most beloved, the name alone would sell millions upon millions, and it could remind people why Sonic Adventure 2 was so good.
The only thing is, can they? Can they possibly make a sequel to a beloved twenty year old duology and somehow not **** it up? I think that's the question Sega needs to ask themselves before they start work on something like that. They can't just do Adventure 3 out of obligation.
Me: Ugh, that was a long day of schoolwork. Thankfully though I've got fifteen, maybe twenty minutes to play some video games-
The twenty minute mandatory tutorial that's an hour into the game:
Don't get why people say ACNH doesn't deserve a GOTY nomination just because it's not a 50 hour long single player experience with cutting edge graphics and a revolutionary combat system.
This is something Nintendo just didn't need to interfere with. If they chose to ignore Big House's Melee tournament, then there would be a lot less trouble and Nintendo would have a way better reputation for letting a big and sponsored tournament use a fanmade online service.
Yes, Slippi has a Patreon. You can play 100, 1,000, 10,000 hours of Slippi and don't have to pay a cent. This is an optional thing. What's more, Sega is totally fine with this kind of thing. There's no written law saying "Nintendo must take down everything with a Patreon." What's more, did I mention Nintendo is the richest company in Japan? Slippi wouldn't do anything to harm them. It's not IP protection either, all Slippi is is online mode for a 19 year old game.
I don't care what anyone says. Nintendo's just trying to kill this game. I may not play it, but I send my condolences to Melee fans, and luck that their community continues to thrive.
Meanwhile in the competitive Smash scene, Nintendo is being Nintendo once again.
My therapist: Badly photoshopped Sonic/Shadow isn't real, it can't hurt you
Badly photoshopped Sonic/Shadow:
Once I finish Astral Chain I have to make a moveset for Akira. My idea would be that if you hold B, you can move your Legion at free will, potentially trapping up your opponent in the chain or keeping them at bay from across the stage. This character would be toxic as heck and I love that idea.
Playing Astral Chain currently. Much needed break from my unbreakable norm of platformers, platformers, platformers, and Smash. It's really fun so far, but I am keeping it on casual mode as I'm a noob to the action games genre.
I hope the next Classic Sonic game lets you use Super Sonic but keep the stage music.
I mean...it certainly looks like a movie?
Saw something the other day, someone asking why Shadow was a hedgehog of all things. Well, here ya' go:
Sorry for the lengthy explanation. It just really grinds my gears when people call a good story bad for minuscule things like this.![]()
Ancient Echidna mural, depicting a hedgehog with raised-up quills using the power of the Chaos Emerald, which is being held by a mustached figure with a triangle nose and glasses.
![]()
As told by the picture above, Gerald was obsessed with ancient Echidna society, so he probably stumbled across the mural at some point. While it clearly shows Sonic retrieving the Master Emerald from Eggman at the end of Sonic 3&K, Gerald must have misinterpreted it as the ancient Echidna tribe having a prophecy that he would create a hedgehog with the power of the Chaos Emerald (one with raised quills, might I add.) He must have been running tests on the prototype Ultimate Life Form around this time. Since that one was slow and unintelligent, and needed a huge life support pack with a major weak point to survive, a new, small, better form would be much more convenient. Plus, hedgehogs are very fast and strong in this universe, which would help if this Ultimate Life Form is to save humanity.
Someone should make an Iceberg Iceberg already. For example, the Mario 64 Iceberg would obviously be on top.
We live in a society.
This would be pretty neat.
Sega Yakuza Producer Would Make A "Completely Different" Sonic Game, If Given The Opportunity
Says he would love to get involved at least oncewww.nintendolife.com
Thanks to Sonic Adventure DX, I'm currently playing through 8-bit Sonic 1 on my PC. From the first zone, here's my thoughts.
It's not the classic some made it out to be, nor is it the dumpster fire others proclaimed it as. It's pretty fun. Not 1-1 with the Genesis games but a heck of a lot better then Generations Classic was. Can't wait to beat it as I really love the artstyle and controls.
Well, I was gonna get a used DS + some games for my birthday...but damn! Why are the games so expensive?
Well, that was rough. Still, even after all that, I do feel good. And in a sense, I feel free now.
Gonna get flamed for this, but...
People who hate Shadow for the sole reason of his edginess and him trying too hard to be cool, are just the modern day equivalent of the old lady from the Sonic 1 commercial.
"Why can't he be more like that nice boy Sonic?"
Chicken Little has one of those plots that has me convinced that the writers had a few short days to write it, and-instead of having an outline and a plan and all that jazz-they just wrote the script from the opening to the ending without stopping. The movie goes all over the place and seemingly has no end goal in mind. I think that's why I love it so much.
Reaper is so much fun in Overwatch. I go right into the action, I hold down right trigger, stonks.
I'm having way more fun in the game threads here on SmashBoards than I have playing Smash recently.
All of this time I thought Chosen Undead referred to the main character of Dead Cells instead of Dark Souls.
Robotnik sounds cool and all, but I don't understand the people who get mad at his name being Eggman in the modern-day run of games.
I mean, his inventions are constantly being named after eggs.
He looks like an egg.
His most iconic inventions are named the "Death Egg" and "Death Egg Robo".
Every game since Sonic Adventure (that I can remember) has had some kind of egg-related pun.
His name was always Eggman in Japanese.
Fun fact: the reason that the Sonic R characters don't control that great is because, before they even were approached by Sega, Traveler's Tales were working on a Formula 1 racing game. When Sega asked them to make a 3D Sonic game on the Saturn with a pretty demanding deadline, they found a workaround and decided to make a racing game, since that wouldn't be as difficult or time consuming as something more akin to Sonic Adventure and they already had an engine for a racing game. So, the reason Sonic and his palls don't control too great is because they're basically F1 cars.
So weird that people argue over Sonic's limb length or eye color when no one talks about if Mario's overalls should be red or blue. Where's the Classic Mario and Modern Mario enthusiasts?
When it comes to fan content in official games, I think it needs to be strictly regulated.
That being said, a particular conversation in the Wah thread got me thinking: what if Eggette-the fan character interpreted from the game's Flying Battery Act 2 boss-got in a potential sequel, either as a boss or playable character, or just a small reference?
I see no reason why not. Sonic Mania is basically an official fangame. Though I'm of the opinion that Amy and the remaining Chaotix members should get in first, Eggette would be an addition I would welcome with open arms. And if Sonic Forces can reference Sanic, we can get a nod to a fan creation in Mania 2, if it's a thing. -
