Fidough is a wonderfully corny pun, even for a franchise with names like "Octillery" and "Incineroar". It sounds more like a parody Pokémon name than a real one, and I'm all for it.

oh my god is the multiversus rtc thread actually rating ELVIS???
hmmm i wonder what sonics power is in norway
I feel a common misconception about NASB is that it's trying to be "a serious esport" - which is technically true in the sense that it does want to be a competitive game people play with complete sincerity, but what often gets missed is that NASB wants to be a funny eSport - one that incorporates the silly elements of casual play into competitive while still emphasising skill and deemphasising luck. I'd compare it more to Brawl Minus than Project M. The signature Nicktoon silliness is systemic to the game rather than specific to the characters like in MVS or flippable on-and-off like in Smash.
I'm watching an AVGN YouTube Poop and it's so surreal to see a YTP turn "condom" into "condiments" instead of vice versa.
Something I've just realised about the COGH debate is that a lot of people may interpret "celebration of gaming" as "the most popular game heroes", in the sense of having characters like Dante; Shantae; Crash; or most of Smash's 1P cast who aren't that influential in the grand scheme of things but have really big and devoted fandoms, rather than "the most important game heroes"; in the sense of focusing on revolutionary genre- or even industry-changing games even if they may not really have fleshed out characters or worlds to be attached to; - like The Sims; Pong; Need for Speed; or Tetris - have had a hit in public reputation since release; - like CoD; Fortnite; Angry Birds; or Warcraft - or share little overlap with Smash's fandom - like pretty much any 1P Sony or non-acquired Microsoft IP.
If you choose to view it as the prior I guess I can see why SSBU would be considered satisfactory in being a "gaming history celebration", but I'd personally prefer the latter.
I really want Ridley's size to be increased a la MVS' Iron Giant if he returns for the next Smash,
aw hell naw the security certificate expired again
me when licensed games murder me and my family
i cant believe someone tried without a shred of irony to submit a darude sandstorm parody to infinite.
absolute chad moment.
I love the fact that the only two shows in NASB that were nominated for an Oscar are the ones represented by meme dads.
The more I think about it, the more accepting I am of the prospect of Chuck E. Cheese in Smash.
Dude, Chuck E. vs. Freddy. I wouldn't care if Scott Cawthon funneled every royalty penny from that directly to the oil lobby, that's a dream matchup.
While I find LeBron in MVS really funny, I do overall think that they should've added the Monstars or Lola instead (preferably the prior) to represent Space Jam
While either Heck or the elders' cruise from Cruisin' is my ideal Rocko stage for NASB, I feel a stage based on the episode Rocko's Happy Sack would fit really well given 1. Rocko is a show that satirises consumerism often, making a supermarket a good locale to represent it; and 2. that episode is the one where Rocko is pushed to his most agressive.
yes, i know that wb will still own the movies, but they'll have less need to advertise it in their giant hbo max advert so it's something
I don't get why people tend to take so much offense to people playing games because they like the mechanics instead of the story/characters/world.
There was a problem fetching the tweet
If MVS is at EVO, I'm betting it's either Gandalf or Scooby - dunno why I even care though given how little I care about MVS.
"Tune in EVO weekend for a first look at Hugh Neutron" is not a sentence I ever expected to read.
Last year, Wall-E (2008) was inducted into the Library of Congress' National Film Registry to be preserved for the rest of time
The credits for Wall-E contains a promo for THQ's Wall-E video game
So no matter how long the human race is out there, we'll always have a grim reminder of cheap 2000s licensed bargain bin games.
It's kinda funny to me how Pulseman was designed to be unabashidly hyper-Japanese as a counter to the Westernised design and universe of Sonic, but then Game Freak would come out a decade later with Drill Dozer, which wears its Powerpuff Girls/Dexter's Lab/Teenage Robot inspirations on its pointy halved-drill sleeves, and then the next decade with Tembo the Badass Elephant, a Rambo parody.
In the SMSB universe, you can canonically hear Pauline sing along to Live & Learn.
I really dislike Smash mods' obsession with backporting future characters and reviving scrapped content. I want to see something wild and new.
oh my god that 2 player classic mode montage in the smash remix presentation was boring
WHY IS THE NEW YOUTUBE COUNTDOWN MUSIC SO SCARY
GEORGE JETSON IS HERE
I think I'll try an "every other day" schedule for Pong Paradox.
Brazilian people on their 25th Birthday
Bring back end credits themes that are just the intro played on the saxophone.
The worst trope on TV Tropes is easily, by a landslide, "Hilarious in Hindsight". It's just the most vague possible connections that are in no way hilarious.
It's funny how this Smash Bros. website is the only place where I can say every Smash game after Melee is on par with Yoshi's New Island and Mario Pinball Land as some of Nintendo's worst titles without being shot.
KFC_es is shaking
Something I think would be cool in a future CTR or Mario Kart game is more platforming with the drift hop. I really like the brief semi-platforming segments in Clockwork Wumpa in CTRNF so seeing that expanded on as a major game mechanic would be rad.
IMO a panel would be a better Puzzle League rep in Smash than Lip
It's kind of incredible how the criticism of SSBU's lack of direction applies equally to the roster and the gameplay. Like, if you said something relatively vague like "Ultimate tries too hard to make compromises between subsectors of the fandom where they're not needed", most SSBU critical people (or even fans understanding of the game's major criticisms) wouldn't know whether you're talking from a gameplay or roster perspective but also totally get it.
I really hate the "bad sequels are a result of malice" and "no sequels are a result of negligence" mentalities. -
