Sakurai's attention to detail never fails to astound. At first, I was really bothered by the fact that Tooty has no shadow in the Spiral mountain stage. Not even a black circle under her feet. Well, I fired up a new file in BK last night and sure enough, watching the intro cutscene, she hasnt...

The cynical side of me doesn't expect him to be last because the last is always disappointing. At least in my experience.

banjo, 100 million percent for sure was a huge deal for me, and still is even after the fact that he's been announced for some time now. I can't overstate how much of a dream come true that is. and then Mach rider was a pretty big for me, since I'm kind of a fan of Nintendo's early years on...

Give me SS Impa for Shiek, I hated the game but it was the best version of the character. Dixie Kong for diddy, as im one of her fans that is fine with her only having the one pony tail attack. Shadow for Sonic, because the 16 year old version of myself that was unironically passionate about...

Nah dawg. The attitude that you've gotta be 100% loyal and only say nice things about a franchise is terrible attitude, and a form of gatekeeping. It never sits right with me when I meet a fan that's constantly trying to shame and silence fellow fans for having criticisms. Even if you dont...

I was never expecting an actual announcement, I was expecting something more in line with Robin and Lucina reveal trailers in Smash 4, where they announced that the video is going to air ahead of time

You're welcome.

I wouldn't have much reason to come back here, that's for sure. nothing against this place, but I'm a pretty casual player, not like pushover levels but I can't hang with the best online. So for me, the only value I get out of Smash discussion Is the speculation Department. once it starts...

You're going to have to be more specific than that dude, there are six games on the NES alone.

NES. we had one since I was born, not a ton of games, but it Didn't matter to me because all I played was Mario anyways. I believe we had Super Mario Bros 1, and we frequently rented the two sequels. I guess it's not fair to say I would only play Mario, because we also had Castlevania, which I...

I'm not really big on traditional fighting games but if I had to pick, give me nightmare from Soul Calibur. Preferably the Soul Calibur 2 look. Would love to have him cross paths with link again. EDIT: No wait I changed my mind I want Virgo from Primal Rage.

Tbh I'm a little confused about his Erdrick comment. The DQ3 hero absolutely IS Erdrick ( or Roto in Japan ), it's a title he earns at the end of the game, and the DQ1 hero absolutely ISNT Erdrick, Erdrick is a legendary figure that has long passed away in DQ1. The big twist of DQ3 is that it's...

Call me boring, but id go with mostly first parties Toad Dixie Kong Mach Rider Mike Jones Porky Minch Beast Ganon ( ALBW design ) Captain Syrup Doom Slayer Crash Bandicoot Spyro the Dragon Dr. Eggman I'll admit it got hard to come up with anyone I after Porky, since most of the...

as someone who's known Nintendo My whole life, I can tell you right now, there is no such thing as knowing them too well. They can surprise you in the best and worst ways And almost never go with what everyone thinks they'll do.

The night before E3, I dreamed of a double reveal for smash, non-cinematic trailers for some anime girl I didnt recognize, and pig ganon. Now pig ganon sounds cool, but they just scaled down his model from the classic mode boss to be barely bigger than Link and gave him an uninspired moveset...
