The results for the first three Jobs of my Konami Platfighter thread are in:

SmashBoards Creates: Konami Wai Wai Showdown: A Konami Platform-Fighter

Konami has been known as one of the most influential video game companies in history, giving us beloved franchises such as Metal Gear, Silent Hill, Castlevania, Contra, and Dance Dance Revolution, AND Bomberman, a franchise previously owned by the now-defunct Hudson Soft, whose other IPs have...

Also, I probably should’ve put this up yesterday, but votes for Jobs #1 and #2 are open, while submissions for Job #3 are still open for my Namco Platfighter thread:

SmashBoards Creates: A Namco Platform-Fighter

That's right. I'm doing yet another SmashBoards Creates thread about a video game company known for making arcade games. I might be doing this often in the future. And this time, I'm covering Namco. Namco (now Bandai Namco) has been known as one of the most iconic creators in the video game...

I kinda would like to make a rhythm game inspired by Space Channel 5, PaRappa the Rapper, and Rhythm Heaven.

And possibly Elite Beat Agents.

And Gitaroo Man.

Again, it might not happen anytime soon, but I'm hoping they'll either make a sequel to Rhythm Heaven Megamix and add in the missing games from RT, RH, and RHF, or remake Rhythm Tengoku and add the Tempo Up remixes from the Arcade version and make Tempo Up remixes for the rest of them.

It might not happen anytime soon, but I'm hoping Nintendo will remake and localize Shin Onigashima, considering they did the same for Famicom Detective Club.

ninjahmos · Aug 12, 2023

I've started yet another Platfighter thread, and this time it's about Koei Tecmo:

SmashBoards Creates: A Koei Tecmo Platform-Fighter (CANCELLED)

Koei Tecmo (the merger of Koei and Tecmo) has created many great games over the years, their best franchises including Nobunaga's Ambition, Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive, Atelier, Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors, Monster Rancher, Fatal Frame, and Nioh. They've even helped work on external...

Not only do we need a new Ace Attorney game with Gumshoe in it, but we also need a spin-off game starring Gumshoe. And possibly remasters of Ace Attorney Investigations 1 and 2.

ninjahmos · Aug 12, 2023

I've recently updated my Konami Platfighter thread, meaning voting on the first three Jobs are open and submissions for the other three Jobs are open until Friday: https://smashboards.com/threads/smashboards-creates-a-konami-platform-fighter.520326/

Also, just a heads up that all Job submissions for my Namco Platfighter thread are open until Thursday. https://smashboards.com/threads/smashboards-creates-a-namco-platform-fighter.520341/

I kinda wish Smash remixes just used Roland Sound Canvas (and other MIDI synthesizers) again, like Shogo Sakai in Melee and Brawl.

Do you ever feel an urge to listen to the music of your youth, even though it’s not your kind of music anymore?

ninjahmos · Aug 10, 2023

I wonder why the Metroid series never used the NES themes ever again, besides Super Smash Bros and Zero Mission.

ninjahmos · Aug 9, 2023

I’ve finally updated my Capcom Platfighter thread after forgetting and procrastinating for a little too long. Here it is: https://smashboards.com/threads/sma...capcom-platform-fighter.520294/#post-24872856

ninjahmos · Aug 9, 2023

If Lara Croft ever makes it into the next Smash game (if they make it), I hope they not only use her classic design, but also use Nathan McCree's music, maybe even do remixes of it. I’d love to hear Smash remixes of the Tomb Raider Theme and the T-Rex Theme.

ninjahmos · Aug 8, 2023

You know what are two other franchises that could make good Musou games? Soul Calibur and Transformers.

A Castlevania Musou game might also be pretty cool.

It may not happen anytime soon (if ever), but I'm hoping they'll remaster/remake or at least re-release the original Tomb Raider games, which may or may not include Anniversary, which was a remake of TR1.

ninjahmos · Aug 7, 2023

You know what else would be pretty cool? A Star Wars Musou game.

ninjahmos · Aug 5, 2023

You know what I think would be pretty cool? A Final Fantasy Musou game.

ninjahmos · Aug 5, 2023

If we ever get a Dynasty Warriors rep for the next Smash game (if they make it), I'm hoping it'll either be Zhao Yun, Xiahou Dun, or Lu Bu. As for Samurai Warriors, I'm still hoping for either Nobunaga or Yukimura.

If Columbo says "one more thing", you know your turkey is roasted.

ninjahmos · Aug 4, 2023

If there ever comes a Metroid movie, I hope that whoever they get to compose the score incorporates themes by both Hirokazu "Hip" Tanaka and Kenji Yamamoto.

ninjahmos · Aug 4, 2023

It might not happen anytime soon, but I'm hoping Koei Tecmo and Omega Force will remaster/remake or at least re-release the older Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors games, including the Xtreme Legends and Empires versions. And Warriors Orochi.

ninjahmos · Aug 4, 2023

Someday I'd also like to try making a crowd-combat tactical action hack and slash game inspired by Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors with a soundtrack that incorporates elements of DW's rock and SW's techno.

Twitter is dead...

You know, there are some rewards in video games that really aren't worth the trouble and effort. Like the Secret Ending from Gex. I mean, the developers literally go from congratulating you to downright insulting you for wasting your life looking for a bunch of remotes. I bet that still hurts even today.

ninjahmos · Jul 28, 2023

It'll never happen, but I'm hoping, for a future Resident Evil game, Capcom will bring back the opening and ending songs from RE1, Terror (Darkness Lives) and Still Dawn, and maybe even bring back the song Icy Gaze (I Got A Shotgun).

Oh, and I forgot, they could even bring back the song I Won't Let This End As A Dream (RE1 Japanese Ending song).

Do you think Capcom will actually remake Code Veronica at this point?

ninjahmos · Jul 26, 2023

It'll never happen, but what if the Mario Party series became co-developed by Konami (which had acquired and dissolved Hudson Soft, the original developers of Mario Party) and NDcube (the majority of which are made up of former employees from Hudson)?

Why do you think Megatron keeps Starscream around as his second-in-command, especially if he knows that he's planning to betray and kill him so he can be the next leader of the Decepticons?

ninjahmos · Jul 23, 2023

For the Silent Hill 2 Remake, I'm hoping they’ll get Akira Yamaoka to re-record Theme of Laura (with the guitar solo) and Promise.

ninjahmos · Jul 22, 2023

Someday I'd like to try my hand at making a survival horror game inspired by Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Alone In The Dark.

ninjahmos · Jul 20, 2023

If you think about it, Disney's Hercules is kind of a loose retelling of Superman. A baby boy gets sent down to Earth and grows up on a farm, raised by mortal human parents, to discover that he has incredible powers, and he wants to use these powers to help people.

ninjahmos · Jul 20, 2023

You know what I think Conker and Gex have in common? Their jokes probably don’t land as well as they did back then.

ninjahmos · Jul 19, 2023

Guys, I think we should give this Warlander game a chance, because it has a lot of potential. There's definitely room for improvement, but it's a lot of fun. I think what could be added are some new characters, stages, weapons and magic, and maybe a double jump feature.

Fun Fact: The voice actor for Harry Mason in Silent Hill 1 (Michael Guinn) is the same voice actor who plays Dracula and the Master Librarian in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. He was also the Commentator for Ridge Racer and Sherudo Garo and the Soldiers in Time Crisis.

ninjahmos · Jul 18, 2023

It'll never happen, but what if Capcom (and Toho) did a remake of Sweet Home in the style of Resident Evil while retaining the original game's RPG elements, following both the movie and the game while also expanding on the story?

It'd have to involve Kiyoshi Kurosawa, they'd have to get Masaya Matsuura to return to do the music, and they'd have to bring back some of the original actors from the movie. I think it'd be a nice tribute to Juzo Itami and Shingo Yamashiro.

ninjahmos · Jul 18, 2023

Does it feel like all of the mansions in the Resident Evil series have the same floor plan?

ninjahmos · Jul 17, 2023

I have a question about the Dual Shock version of Resident Evil: Director's Cut. Why did Capcom feel the need to change the soundtrack? In fact, why did they try to fix something that wasn't broken only to make it ultimately worse?

The Dual Shock Version had a few good tracks, but the rest of them just had godawful MIDI arrangements! And don't even get me started on the Mansion Basement:

They even made Wesker's Theme sound like he's in a 70s buddy cop show:
