It is absolutely astonishing how much of a grip SiIvaGunner had on meme culture at one point, like 2016-to-2018 almost every major meme had some kind of connection, direct or in-, to SiIvaGunner or its staff - like, how does a channel so fundamentally, conceptually niche and specific get such a big footprint?

I don't know why prefering things for nostalgia is so frowned upon - like, yeah, someone who grew up in the 90s or 2000s is obviously going to prefer children's games and cartoons from the 90s or 2000s over children's games and cartoons from a later era. You can make all the arguments in the world for how media for children should be taken more seriously and they'd mostly be valid, but the reality is that very few grown adults will really want to - let alone - be that up to speed on the current state of the Nicktoons lineup. It's different when there's an attempt at legitimate analysis and discussion, but there's nothing wrong with just having Gen 1 as your favourite Pokémon gen or thinking of Cow & Chicken as superior to Steven Universe, and is kinda just the natural opinion most people will form if they were raised on the earlier works and grew out of kids' media - not to mention that even without nostalgia there are valid reasons to prefer a lot of these earlier works over their later counterparts (and yes, that includes Pokémon Gen 1)

I think Smash has two major problems holding it back, but weirdly enough they are in and of themselves opposites?

Smash takes itself too seriously - it builds up even its smallest additions as a bigger deal than they should be; rarely branches out into further merchandise or spin-offs; uses overly dramatic theming unfit for the type of game it is even competitively; and refuses to be self-aware about its fundamental absurdity even when representing comical and "meta" series like WarioWare and Banjo-Kazooie.
Smash doesn't take itself seriously enough - it only pays lip service to competitive players at best; adds characters based mostly on fan demand and marketability instead of moveset or their place in an "ultimate crossover"; juxtaposes its dramatic story mode with wacky, abstract battles based on promotional PNGs from the 90s; and has strange mechanics meant to give a less skilled player the upper hand that can bleed into competitive play.

It's kinda interesting how most Multiversus hype I've seen has been "look at this cool detail/reference!" rather than "look at this cool technique/move!" - nothing wrong with that, but it really does confirm my suspicion that the drop in NASB interest isn't because it's a low quality product but just that it attracted an audience it wasn't aiming for.

When I make movesets my process is often

What is this character's single most iconic ability or trait?
What playstyle and attributes would that ability or trait fit with?
What other moves can I make that can flow well with that move?
How do I theme those moves to fit the fighter, and how can those themes enhance the moves?

I'll use my SMSB Birdo moveset as an example here

Birdo's most iconic ability is shooting eggs out of her mouth
Since the eggs can be stood on in Mario 2, Birdo's moves should provide different movement options - as a dinosaur, it makes sense for her to be heavyweight and slow
As a fighter with enough movement options as is, Birdo should have a non-offensive Up B; a move that propells her backwards with nose suction; and an offensive move that the Up B goes into
Birdo's Up B could be a parallel to Yoshi's Side B, and given the origins in Story that move could also be chargable. If Birdo's going to have an inhale move, she should follow it up with a kiss since she's a feminine character. On the topic of femininity, how about being able to cancel the Up B into a ballerina drill attack, and in turn make it a multihit?

Reminder that we are submitting movesets and alts for Birdo + animations for Klump and Captain Syrup, and voting on accessory uses! We also have a fighter job coming up tomorrow due to the schedule change

There is just something significantly more special about seeing a classic character's new look for the first time through a still JPG on a blog post than there is to some elongated fully-animated reveal with teases and ****.

It's kinda weird how many times the appropriateness of references to characters who have comitted suicide has come up in the Infinite thread. Of all the perpetual Infinite arguments, that is by far the weirdest - but not really in the funny way that Clippy and such are.

Wario Wario Wario · May 21, 2022

I've been thinking of speeding up the pace on SMSB - it's been really hard coming up with jobs to fill Saturday and Tuesday through Thursday, and given how popular the fighter sub jobs tend to be that may attract people to submit more for non-fighter and fighter-related jobs.

i cant believe the annoying orange met the snorks

Print done by legendary comic artist @ScottShawToons for Collector Con! It features other characters such as Homer Simpson & Fred Flintstone. Scott Shaw!’s style is probably my favorite Sonic art, with its Hanna-Barbera vibe. I’ve always hoped to meet him in person!! pic.twitter.com/4oYQBGA7w4

One mine for meta-stories of the Wreck-It Ralph/Roger Rabbit variety I think hasn't been looked into enough is commercials - you could make a really funny yet poignant social commentary about capitalism by using self-aware ad mascots, maybe play into how a lot of kids would overthink dark humour-based commercials (especially for food) or something to that extent

That being said, it'd pretty much have to use entirely original mascots with no cameos - maybe a few mascots who fell into the public domain after their companies went defunct but that's about it.

Wario Wario Wario · May 21, 2022

I wonder, are any of you interested by this concept for a platform fighter control scheme? Basically, the left joystick is used for movement - including jumping - while the right stick is used for input directions, which would then allow for things like seperate down and crouch attacks; directional crouch attacks; directional dash attacks, reverse-momentum moves without a strafe or unturning jump; so on. There'd probably be a "simple mode", especially if it were a crossover and/or licensed game.

If, by some miracle/disaster/both, Goku got in NASB, I think it should be Kid Goku instead of adult Goku.

It really annoys me how Smash fans are actively opposed to creative liberties and original move concepts.

I'm honestly surprised it took until Steve to get a pixel art character in Smash. There have been tons of characters at least an alt would fit beautifully for.

I do use a lot of competitive slang when discussing games, but I'm not really a competitive player as much as a hyper-attentive player. I generally prefer the funny wacky stages and using items, but I also like to understand and learn the mechanics I'm using to play those battles.

Wario Wario Wario · May 19, 2022

I finally finished watching Rocko - glad I chose it of all shows. It has some REALLY high highs, and even the lows aren't "frustrating/mean/painful episodes" as much just "less funny than usual episodes"

I watched Static Cling long before I decided to binge the series and honestly now I've rewatched it's a lot funnier than I remember, (in part because I now know these characters better - so I can understand the irony of once-progressive Rocko becoming a little bitter like Ed after being isolated in space for example)

Wario Wario Wario · May 19, 2022

I kinda understand why people prefer Ultimate over NASB, but I don't really get why people act like it's "night and day" or extremely obvious/objective that Ultimate is better.

Wario Wario Wario · May 18, 2022

Friday's SMSB fighter job is one I'm looking forward to - I think everyone's going to have someone they can bring to the table for it, and it covers probably the biggest untapped mine of the series in the roster.
