Shameless self promotion: one of these characters are about to become the Official Smashboards Video Game Character of the Year for 2024. If you wanna vote thread’s down there:

The Smashboards Video Game Character of the Year Award 2024

Last year, I held a thread where we voted for the video game character of the year for 2023 (it ended up being Ganondorf). Since I considered it a success I’m bringing it back this year. To earn a spot of video game character of the year, a character needs to have a major appearance (not...

I’ve never actually seen the lord of the rings and I wanna watch one of the two animated versions first, depending on which would be funnier

includes glorbo in fanmade smash roster
Glorbofan67: Regrettably, GameCo hasn't used Glorbo in years I think they forgot about them I can't see them being here

doesn't include glorbo in fanmade smash roster
Glorbofan68: Ok what the hell?? No Glorbo? This sucks

There should be a soulslike based on a classic book that's not a dark ****ed up version of the book and completely plays it straight

The indie game fighter roster I made not that long ago probably already has some controversial picks but it could have been more, I was originally planning on King Dice and Porkrind being the two Cuphead picks

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 10, 2024

I’ve decided to play every game Treasure made for GBA and so far the problem is that they’re too good. They make games that are too fun and should be illegal how good they are. It’s pretty ****ed up once you think about it

Soma Cruz was born in 2017 in Castlevania lore so he could be out there watching skibidi toilet right now

The newest video on did you know gaming's second channel has a fact that's exactly the same as one I submitted to vgfacts with the same source. Given that they used some other vgfacts as sources I'm going to count this as me contributing to did you know gaming lol

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 8, 2024

I've finally done it. I finally filled a whole 64 gb usb stick with gameplay footage.

My main takeaway from the latest did you know gaming video is that Nintendo just straight up used child labour for playtesting.

It would be one thing if it was an informal “why don’t you bring your kid into the office sometime if you want haha” arrangement, but no. They literally just kept track of everyone’s children and their ages to get them to playtest

I had a dream strangers broke into my house and randomly started playing Kingdom Hearts with my dad

I have an indie game crossover roster I'll post later but first the most important thing

last one for a while i swear

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 7, 2024

I don't regret it or anything (I am glad I made it) but in hindsight I'm not the most proud of my smashboards iceberg video. It was pretty low quality and there were some entries (such as when I discuss specific users on this site) I probably shouldn't have put in the video at all. I could probably have asked more people on this site for information since I have spoken with quite a lot of people here now. I'm not really eager to make a follow up at the moment tho tbh

A Cold War era Assassin's Creed game would be one of the coolest settings they could explore. The problem is, realistically Ubisoft would do some incredible mental gymnastics to make the assassins on the side of the CIA

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 7, 2024

I updated that stupid sega license roster there you happy?

there are exactly four characters I added

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 6, 2024

I can’t think of a video I want to watch less than the jelloapocalypse “so this is basically” video on one piece

I was eating Chinese food with my friend when the fortune cookie said “now might be the best time for solitude” had to tell him to leave since that’s what tha fortune says

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 6, 2024

I’ve had a random idea that it would be cool for an indie fighting crossover to take a cross tag battle approach. Add Skullgirls, Thems Fighting Herds, Rivals of Aether now in traditional fighter format, and a secret fourth thing as the rwby equivalent.

would never happen for a variety of reasons but could be fun

The criticism that says it’s out of character for Kiryu to use guns in Yakuza Dead Souls is funny to me. If these people actually played the game they’d find it portrays Kiryu as hesitant to use firearms but ultimately accepts they’re necessary to stop zombies…

…Except he uses guns no problem on actual living people through out the series since the first game. So arguably Dead Souls is more true to his character than the actual mainline games.

Partners in Time is weird in hindsight. Not saying it’s a bad idea or anything but if someone said “Okay we need to make a sequel to Mario & Luigi and we need more characters because of the X and Y buttons” my first thought wouldn’t be babies

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 5, 2024

I’m replaying Dark Souls with a pure strength build. I got that item that quiets all sound you make and thought “wow this seems really useful!” until I remembered this isn’t Elden Ring and since there’s basically no stealth that’s incredibly useless.

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 3, 2024

The game Bangai O feels weird to me because the game released on N64, and then Dreamcast. There’s probably objectively nothing weird about that it’s just when’s the last time you heard of a game made for Nintendo 64 being ported to a Sega system but not PlayStation?

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 2, 2024

this will be the next smash game

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 2, 2024

I’ve been playing Antonball in the lead up to Antonblast and the leaderboard intrigues me. How does the top score of all time have about 60000 but the second highest is in the 30000 range. Did someone just get insanely lucky or is there a secret strat one person knows about?

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 2, 2024

battle of ages if it was good

Champion of Hyrule · Dec 2, 2024

celebrity chef tatsuya kawagoe appears in both yakuza and toriko. toriko has had a crossover with one piece and dragon ball. therefore it's possible tatsuya kawagoe proves dragon ball and yakuza are connected

The Vatican II is the same kind of sequel as Metal Gear Solid 2 or Metroid 2. It’s deemed a divisive sequel but it builds off the original way better than its naysayers are willing to admit.

From a meta perspective I kinda like how fire typically makes the frame rate low in PS3 era games. It makes it feel extra dangerous like you’re slowed down by smoke inhalation or something.

From a gameplay perspective it’s very annoying.

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 29, 2024

I rewatched the disney robin hood movie today and I like how the framing device allows it to narrowly avoid the implications of animal characters fighting in the crusades

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 27, 2024

On the same topic as the post I made a couple days ago, I started watching joueur de grenier (essentially the french angry video game nerd) and the funniest part is hearing him pronounce english names of video games in a french tone. It’s just satisfying for some reason to hear metroid as Metroïde

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 27, 2024

I recently found out about the DS Wizard of Oz JRPG and it looks cool and all, but as good as it might be there’s no way it can take the title of best Wizard of Oz DS game using touch controls as movement.

Tingle’s Balloon Trip of Love sweep

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 26, 2024

I heard that Capcom vs SNK 2 had console crossplay so I decided to look up what the first game with crossplay was and IGN says it’s Fortnite. Damn is this really something people believe

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 25, 2024

I finally played the four ps3 exclusives I got my system for: mgs4, demons souls, yakuza dead souls, and playstation all stars. I’m glad for it but it is kinda funny the games I was interested are all just alright (at least compared to other games in their series/genre)

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 25, 2024

Another thing I really like about knowing video game sales is that sometimes it’s really shocking finding out a game from another region is way more successful than you’d think.

Like for example I recently found out about the KartRider series from South Korea, most people in north america probably haven’t heard of it and it did poorly here but it had over 380 accounts made for it. It’s a free game but still a “mario kart rip off racer” having more than 5 times the sales of mario kart 8 is impressive

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 25, 2024

I feel like at least a handful of smash characters technically debuted in a demo disc and not their own game. You could probably be really annoying about correcting people about their debuts if you wanted to.

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 25, 2024

I recently found out the people who make joueur de grenier, essentially the french angry video game nerd equivilant, both have cameos in the french dub of the dungeons and dragons movie. I don't know what to make of it, it's just a really random fact

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 24, 2024

I’ve come to a revelation, calling something brainrot is the 2020s equivilent of calling a meme “cancer”

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 23, 2024

I didn’t realize DuckTales remastered wasn’t on modern hardware, that feels weird

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 23, 2024

Apparently Tekken 8 has rollback (even if it’s flawed) so I can’t make the “Tuff E Nuff has rollback but Tekken doesn’t” joke
