Zavok from Sonic looks like a character from Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures. He just has that vibe.

One of the strangest takes I've seen is that "Bubsy killed Plok because the Bubsy games were so bad that people got tired of mascots." I guess I can kinda see where it's coming from, but it still seems pretty strange and unecessearily pits the games against eachother.

I do not want to meet a single person in the in-universe Smash Bros. Infinite audience.

You don't want Windows content in Smash because you don't think it fits in.

I don't want Windows content in Smash because I hate Windows. (Linux gang)

We are not the same.

This is just a joke. Even though I don't like Windows, Clippy (or some other content) would honestly be really cool in Smash.

Guys future profile pictures for some Smashboards users got leaked!

[Smash Bros Youtuber voice] "Smash Bros Ultimate is truly the magnum opus of Nintendo and possibly gaming as a whole. Its perfect lineup of DLC proved that anyone could get in. [footage of Terry and Hero's reveals] Even if they're too obscure. [footage of Steve's reveal] Even if they're just a meme. [footage of Pythra's reveal] Even if they're too recent. [footage of Sora's reveal] And even if they're owned by one of the greediest companies in the world. Sakurai has truly made a celebration of gaming history that will be remembered as one of the greatest games of all time."

Writing this was so ****ing painful.

You know you've ****ed up when not even PokeLego999 likes your profile post.

There are a surprising number of "Sans is another fictional character" memes around. Ness, Patrick Star, Mii Gunner, Steven Universe. Probably more.

I feel like making fun of anime/anime fans is never funny. I'm not even really offended by it or anything it's just like some sort of anti-comedy.

I just had a really weird dream. I was playing a game called "Kill the Heavy." Which was a TF2 mod where a giant red Heavy would walk from one side of the map to the other. If he reaches the other side of the map, you lose. If you and your team manage to kill the Heavy, you win. All human players were on the same team and it was also a megacrossover for the roster. I remember how you could play as any class and team combination except you could only play as a blue Heavy in order to not create confusion with the big red Heavy. There were also payload carts apparently. Also it was in like, real life? And at my house?

Anyway, in the dream I had only played this game once before when it was released. But then I had seen a bunch of other people playing it so I decided to join in. There were a few moments I remember, like one time a payload cart was going really fast towards the base and I stopped it. Or another time when a payload cart was being pushed by a few enemies and tons of other people were pushing it back. It felt pretty exciting. One time it changed to "Kill the Chad" where instead of a Heavy there was just Chad from the "Virgin vs. Chad" memes.

I then realized why a bunch of people started playing it. Nintendo was shutting the game down. Apparently it was a limited-time release like Super Mario Bros. 35 and today was the day it shut down. And bunch of other people were talking about how sad it was and how the game could have been better. One point of discussion was how there was only one map. (I believe it was the dinosaur area from Mario Odyssey with the layout of a flat plane with a few rocks in the shape of cubes.) I suggested they could add 2Fort and someone else suggested "that place from Ocarina of Time." (which I believe was a forest area.) I even thought of started a Smashboards creation thread for a sequel. Anyway, in the game we weren't doing so well. The Chad was right near our base and slowly walking towards it. We tried firing on him with everything we had, but it was no use. As I stared at him, I thought about how he could represent the closure of this game, we could try and delay with all our might, but it will always come in the end. And then, he reached the base, we lost, and we could never play the game again. So then we all walked to our cars (well, except for me, if it really was at my house) to go home. I thought of saying "the real Chad in that game was all of you guys!" or something similar, but I didn't due to how few people were left.

I aim to make a platform fighter that will kill Smash Bros. Not because it's so good that Smash players play it instead of Smash, but because it's so bad that everyone who plays it will swear off the platform fighter genre as a whole.

Honestly, I feel like an underrated pick for a "single-franchise platform fighter" is Minecraft. First of all, you have Steve's building mechanics that can really shine with a full platform fighter built around them. Second, the sheer variety of items in Minecraft means that you can pretty much have a whole roster full of Steves while still being pretty varied. Sure it would be a little lame if it was just Steve variants, but it has pretty much the biggest roster variety when just "variants of the main character." Luckily, there's still tons of potential with the other mobs in the game. The Enderman and Iron Golem are probably the most obvious picks, but there are tons of other mobs that could work such as the Wandering Trader, Illagers, Spiders and Spider Jockeys, Guardians, Drowned, Snow Golem, Blaze, and Slime. And that's just the first game. There's tons of other mobs from Dungeons, Earth and more. Sure it might be a little weird to see these mobs placing and destroying blocks, but the concept of a Minecraft platform fighter in general is kinda weird tbh. Nonetheless, I still think it would be incredibly cool.

The Minecraft mob votes are such a stupid idea I seriously don't know why Mojang still does them. I feel like literally no-one will be mad if they go back and add the outvoted mobs.

One of the few things I know about Infinite's jobs is that one time they voted on which celebrities should cameo in the trailer for the Fighter's Pass and they ended up having to make a trailer featuring Barack Obama and Kermit the Frog. I think more creation threads should do that.

When NASB gets voice acting I'm going to exclusively play with it off just to spite the complainers.

It's time for the ultimate test. Will I do it? Will I be able to stand by my hipster opinions on voice acting in funny platform fighter games that I posted a couple weeks ago? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z!

I don't need to take slander of the .MIDI format from Radiohead fans.

GUYS DON'T LOOK UP WHO THE ANTAGONIST OF THE CHEETAMEN IS

I just realized another aspect about Rivals of Aether 2 I dislike. That is it seems to be going for Smash's "upgrade" style of sequel. I've said before that I don't like how Smash sequels keep trying to one-up the previous game. I feel that trying to be "better" than the last game both makes previous games obsolete and makes the overall gameplay stale. You can't focus on experimenting with new mechanics and gameplay styles styles when you're busy trying to cram in more content than the last time. So far, Rivals 2 just seems to be the last game, but 3D and with Smash mechanics. It doesn't seem to really do anything different besides those two things.

There's a ton of potential ways you could take it, the first thing that comes to my mind is a fully game set in Clairen's time. We already have a taste of it with Mollo and Pomme (and Clairen herself obviously) but there's still a lot more to explore in both the story and characters. You could also have it be themed around the Abyss, with it being promoted to getting full-on characters and maybe even stages with it corrupting various established locations. Maybe if you wanna get crazy you could even make a full-on Lovers of Aether platform fighter. (Okay, I'm mainly just biased because I love Orcane's LoA design and he was robbed out of getting an alt)

Of course, like my last post complaining about Rivals 2, this is all subject to change due to the fact that barely anything about the game has been revealed.

I feel that the reason Smash speculation has shifted towards big third party names is purely because of how long Ultimate's DLC was.

The Reckless Safety Notice Man mod for RoA is really weird. Half of his specials feel like strongs and all of his strongs feel like specials. Take his Fspecial for instance. He just swings the wiimote on both sides of him twice and moves forward. Compare that to his Fstrong. He winds up throwing a bowling ball and releases it as a projectile with the distance depending on how long you hold the button for. He also moves forward while charging it. Don't get me wrong, it's a really well made character, just one with some really weird design decisions.

I don't really get why "closing the casual and competitive gap" is seen as such a big deal. Even without wacky stages and items, y'know that... casuals can play competitive games too? Chess is seen as a pretty competitive game but tons of people play it casually. To give another example, Scrabble is seen as a fun family game, but it has a pretty active competitive scene from what I've heard. Casuals won't really notice competitive mechanics being added but competitive players will notice their abscence.

Male genderswapped characters (female to male designs) look so much better than female genderswaps 99% of the time imo.

I'm not just stopping at "deconfirmed," I'm going to start saying other words that start with "dis" with "de" instead.

Degruntled. Deappear. Debelief. Derepair.Depensed. Deobey. Depute.

I feel like most jokes at the expense of "WaCkY sUpErViLlAiNs" kinda fall flat due to how ridiculous the "normal" supervillains can get.

Nothing against the game itself, but I hate the Multiversus logo. I just needed to get this off my chest.

I've got a bit of stuff to do, but OC Battle Royale will move on the next jobs today.

Why is the couple choosing the rat over the other orphans in Stuart Little such a big deal? I feel like if they're just gonna get a rat then it's not like they were likely to adopt any other kids anyway. It's not like there's a big "1 item or less" sign at the orphanage exit.

(Also if rats are known to be sentient in the Stuart Little universe then does it really even matter? Idk I have never consumed a piece of official Stuart Little media which may mean that this whole thing can easily be debunked but eh.)

I know the very idea is controversial (especially on this site) but I feel like Mario Kart Tour could work as a "Nintendo Kart." And honestly, maybe it could even work a little better than just Mario. Now I don't think the main Mario Kart series should go Nintendo mode, not at all. I just think it could've worked well for Tour specifically. Here are a few reasons why I think this:

• Tour is a lot simpler than the previous Mario Karts and is on mobile devices. A common suggestion for a Nintendo Kart is to have major differences from Mario Kart in order to make clear that it's more of a separate thing. So why not do it for the game that's already really different?
• The rosters also kind of line up with the gameplay styles. The single-series game with the deep cuts for dedicated fans has the more technical and advanced gameplay while the all Nintendo all the time crossover with characters that can cater to many has the more casual and accessible gameplay.
• Tour's status as a live service game allows it to continuously add characters as the updates roll in. Meaning it can eventually achieve both a deep-cut Mario roster, a crowd-pleasing Nintendo crossover roster, and a deep-cut Nintendo crossover of the inactive franchises.

Hey, mate. Watch one of the videos in your watch later playlist.

What seems kinda weird about Smash to me is that it doesn't really seem to be treated as a "franchise." It's always just been 1 game per console and that was it. And if you think about, that's not really what game series get and that makes me kinda sad tbh. Where are the Smash Bros. spinoffs? The more smaller but experimental games in-between the big ones? The fun pieces of art posted by the official social media account? It doesn't seem to be a franchise you can really dig deep into like Mario or Zelda. The "huge Smash fans" just seem to be ones who know a lot about the mechanics of the specific game they play. (Usually the latest installment.) It just seems to be this big thing that is "too important to have spin-offs" or some ****. And I really want that to change someday.

As an addition to my last post, I've made a moveset for Beekeeper. I aimed for him to be a heavy zoner-type character that aims to hit with their slowing and stunning moves in order to compensate for their slow K.O. moves.

Neutral special - Bee Shot: Flings a swarm of bees that travel in a sine wave pattern. The swarm deals weak damage but is a multihit attack that's great for stunlocking opponents. So be sure to follow it up with a good K.O. move. First upgrade increases the size and the second makes the swarm slightly home in on enemies.

Up special - Flying High(ve): Holds the beehive up above his head and the bees carry him upwards. Functions similarly to Snake's recovery due to the fact that his body is vulnerable during this period. First upgrade makes it faster and the second makes the bees carrying the hive also deal damage. Also makes it slightly faster.

Down special - Honey Huck: Chuck a glob of honey in an arc. It creates a puddle on whatever it lands on. Opponents hit by or standing the puddle have their movement speed slowed. You can only have 1 puddle on stage at a time and can only throw another projectile after the first one lands Unless you get the second upgrade. First upgrade makes the honey stun fighters for a short time. Second upgrade allows 2 puddles/projectiles to be on screen at a time.

Super - Bee Swarm: Unleashes an enormous cloud of bees that flies around the stage and hurting opponents caught in the swarm.

Imagine if Rivals of Aether 2 had voices that sounded like they came from the most generic anime dub of all time and the characters were constantly saying full sentences for their specials and stuff and you couldn't turn them off because they were counted as just a part of the generic sound option.

Creation thread concept: Smash Bros. Finite. A thread for creating a new Smash Bros. game but all of the submission rules are merely suggestions. You can submit anything to any job, you'll just be cooler if obeys the rules. The submission with the lowest points wins.

Does anyone actually notice when a song only has a sound in one channel or does it only really effect people when they have like, broken headphones and only one speaker is working?

This may be kinda weird but I don't really like battle passes or time-based rewards in online games. Even if you can get them after the season ends. If I wanna play the game, I'll play the game. You don't need to dangle a little carrot in my face in order for me to do that.

Scott the Woz episodes airing on G4 is so weird that it honestly seems like the type of thing that would be the topic of an actual Scott the Woz episode if it happened some time in the past and it wasn't about... y'know... himself.

Me waiting for the next Pop Culture Clash job that I can submit Making Soup to:
