remember when pixar movies didn't have a reputation for being heartfelt and stuff so all the marketing presented them as if they were friedberg and seltzer slapstick-gross out movies

i think the most surreal thing about the 80s from a zoomer-looking-in perspective is how mcdonald's tried to present as a philantrophy first and restaurant second.

i wonder which streaming service will pick up the rights to the king's christmas speech when the bbc satelites go off the air.

I'm kinda tempted to do a million-character Smash roster - if I do it'd probably be more defined by its exclusions than inclusions.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 24, 2023

I think Professor Pac-Man probably wins the award for "Game with the most conceptually interesting but least sourced popular facts"

I just watched Once Upon a Studio, and I feel like I have a moral obligation to hate this, but I can't - it's just too cute and well-animated, and they get so much mileage out of the interactions. The corporate ploy worked, 10/10, will buy the Inside Out 2 cross-promotion Frubes

Yo Wawawa, I had this really dumb question earlier today and I apologize if you feel uncomfortable with It... But as a British person what are your thoughts on Austin Powers?

Idk, he reminds me of Super López and specially Anacleto in Spain (the latter being a James Bond parody) and those two are enjoyed over here. Was wondering if that applies to you with Austin Powers or you happen to really dislike him.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 24, 2023

OK, I think I know who that "Evil Wawawa" account is with their recent Next Smash thread posts

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 23, 2023

I do think that if a non-F2P platform fighter ever manages to legitimately gain online popularity, it won't be a crossover game, but rather an original IP with a very distinctive aesthetic. I think it'd be more likely to be an indie release than a major studio IP, but both could happen.

OK, so I'm very aware that Sonic isn't popular in Japan, it's something I've probably brought up too much if anything, but I was not aware that it was to the extent where a major game developer, under hire by Sega, wouldn't know who Dr. Eggman is.

I never really gave Bub and Bob in Smash that much consideration beyond "I like this game, it'd be fun to have in Smash", but now I think about it, those bubbles could be an awesome command grab/projectile combination - I could imagine them as going in an arc rather than staying in place, but still trapping foes in it - essentially being the ultimate combo tool, cancelling out DI and forcing a set knockback regardless of weight or damage. Should be blockable though.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 21, 2023

It's no NASB thread summon attack, but I'll absolutely remember "Why aren't you being nuanced about this topic? Anyway, Bubsy has no redeeming qualities" for a long time.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 21, 2023

I'm reading some of the Bubsy discorse from the Next Smash thread - at a safe distance - and I think these people really don't understand Bubsy as a concept. People are acting like the diegetic crux of the character is "Sonic but annoying/wacky" when he's really a lot more of a Daffy Duck/Donald Duck-style character.

oh god mcdonalds brought back ronald's creepy klasky csupo character design dog

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 21, 2023

I think if I was in charge of PSASBR 2, I'd make it a lifebar based game - still a platform fighter with the standard mobility options and moveset layouts, but all the stages are walled up (with pits perhaps being part of a crossover hazard or two) and a lot bigger than the average Smash stage, even for the stages designed with competitive play in mind - it'd have a meter a bit like NASB 2, but every move's upgraded form takes a different amount of meter and there are - like PSASBR 1 - 3 supers

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 20, 2023

god damn it someone brought up masked man on next smash thread, i'm out. bubsy was one thing, but i do not have the energy to discuss this topic.

"Here's my most wanted Smash characters list"
"Haha funny jokes"
"When did I ever imply this was a joke?"
"It's very obvious"
"OK, if it is a joke, what is the joke?"
radio silence

I'm starting to suspect the SmashBoards user base is a significantly higher percentage neurotypical than I first thought.

While I do defend use of AI art in recreational or otherwise-non-corporately-produced/budgeted content, I do think it's really weird and a little concerning that all the generators don't have citations/sources listed for the source images, even though they could pretty easily do that AFAIK.

I had a dream where a Subway opened near my house, but it was a "Seinfeld Subway", where Jerry Seinfeld impersonators worked there and they would only take your order if you started it with "What's the DEAL with..."

How have I never seen the PS5 menu until now? It's awesome! Fits really well for PS' current focus on cinematic games

gamexplan using british ai voices is funny. i mean objectively it sucks that such a big business can't be bothered to hire people, but in execution it's just hilarious to hear a british posh guy talk about super mario rpg

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 17, 2023

Just read every Garfield comic released on an anniversary of 9/11.

It was a massive waste of time.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 16, 2023

So, when Deadpool is both bad and good he's an "anti-hero", but when I'm both bad and good I'm simply "mediocre"?

smh these double standards

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 16, 2023

I don't think any one thing has gone from so awesome to so awful with added context than The Completionist buying all the 3DS and Wii U games.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 16, 2023

Honestly, I think "4th parties" are a good idea for Smash in one very specific context (and also a context I generally think is a bad idea): a Nintendo crossover that also has strictly-Nintendo-adjacent third parties like Banjo and Mega Man. If a Nintendo crossover is incomplete without Mega Man, it's also incomplete without James Bond, Scrooge McDuck, and the Ninja Turtles

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 15, 2023

i used to live near a pub with one of these. probably. i was like 6 at the time, might be some bizarre misremembering.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 15, 2023

Honestly, I think Smash 64's Poke Balls were the best take on summon items in the series - I'm not 100% sure if it was an intentional design decision or just an N64 processing thing, but I like how they all (sans Clefairy) have only one attack, since that makes them a lot more fun to play around than ATs and certain Poke Balls basically just being 9th players. Admittedly though, if ATs had this design mentality, they'd need to make them throwable, a lot of Poke Balls just don't work if you throw them at nothing (Melee Porygon2)

I assume Wish must have a lot of instances of people saying "He wished he had never heard of X" for people to assume it was made by AI
