smash should add ko sfx customisation for the sole purpose of facilitating this
Still failing to wrap my head around how "bad picks" can exist whatsoever if emotional attachment is the point of Smash.
why does the latest thumbnail from the creature comforts youtube channel look like a drama thumbnail.
if i made a normal mario game but had his catchphrase he says every time he jumps be "nintendo refused to stock their games to shops that sold sega games in the 1980s" would it be protectable under parody law
THIS ISN'T LEGAL ADIVCE I KNOW IT WOULDN'T
can't believe kingdom hearts became canon to goofy movie before goofy movie became canon to kingdom hearts
i think i've gained a newfound appreciation for the ssbu dlc because at least they aren't "projectile, forwards dash, downwards slam".
just saw a rare discord animation (posted at the exact second between posts that they no longer merge with the previous one and they were briefly merged before snapping apart)
I don't get why people say the Noise is OP during bosses in Pizza Tower? Those bombs are awful, just so much lag. I can basically only beat the bosses on Swap Mode in a Noise playthrough because of them.
I think vs. debating is only really fun when people go find insane **** from obviously non-canon sources. Like, "On the back of the 1976 Yogi Bear's Cinnamon Pic-A-Nics cereal box, there is a colouring page of Yogi using a solar-powered Milk Magnet to steal cereal, which has the strength to pick up entire cows, which are not native to Jellystone Park - in the coming-up-next bumper preceding the 2-minute Cartoon Network special Ranger Smith Driving Boringly While Not Speaking, made for April Fools' Day 1998 using existing footage and aired exactly once during school hours in Signapore, It is said that Ranger Smith has to drive 3 hours at 30 miles per hour to find Uncle Smith's farm, the only farm alluded to in the Yogi Bear universe thus far, meaning that the cows must have been drawn from 80 miles away. This makes Yogi's victory against Baloo (TJB/TS composite) all but ensured."
Since I posted about the Pakistan McDonald's commercials, it actually brought something to my mind: I grew up around the time of what Wikipedia calls the "Pakistan–United States skirmishes" (I don't know why Wikipedia uses that word, but whatever), and whenever I'd see Pakistan on TV, it was always warzones with dust and demolished buildings - and those commercials, even though I was just there for the funny mondegreens and bad animation, exposed me to the idea that Pakistan is actually well, a country, where children play Sonic games and eat McDonald's, just like the UK, and not some kind of weird exotic island that exists solely for bad things to happen.
If if there is any argument for the value of preserving ephemera like commercials, that would probably be it.
We should bring back Global Smash Roster. Terrible place for actual research but quite fun.
(I might be biased because Bubsy somehow made the top 1000 IIRC, Jill might have too?)
oh my god pakistan has a rational copyright law. rogue the rat will be ours in our lifespans.
I've always wondered…
Why do you hate Smash trailers so much? I'm asking because I've only seen a few of your posts that state how much you despise them. Is it because of how they're made or because of the marketing?
It's funny that Woon's official gaming debut is technically a Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers mod.
I have gone down the Thomas, MLP, and Barney lore rabbit holes through random YouTube video essay recommendations, and I think I was convinced the most of Barney's merits out of those 3 rabbit holes. Thomas seems very charming with a lot to love (especially in production), but also difficult to detach from its origin as a strict do-as-you're-told moral cautionary tale series; MLP is just... weird, not even talking about fandom or just FIM, the content of each show has so much... strangeness - sometimes in a cool way (The Smooze is fun and G1 seems neat as a whole, Discord is an amazing character design) but usually in just a bad way (communist village? child petrification ending? The entire Tales show?); but Barney's just a cool, over-theatrical babysitter that's interesting to learn about the changes to and fandom of. Even the Barney drama - aside from the big hate campaign - is kinda silly (pistachio addiction lmao)
I watched the Designing For video about the Rare "universe" and I thought it was funny that he said "They didn't have to travel through magic portals..." when that is the literal explanation given from Banjo's creator word-for-word for how Banjo and Conker appeared in Diddy Kong Racing
just found out about the herobrine thing. this has to be intentional, right? i'm always the first spoilsport to accept "yes, banjo-threeie was just a joke" but that response reads like arg material
I like the idea of alts that barely change anything but would have some kind of significance to fans (like say, single-sleeveless Cloud) on paper - I would love something like US Ness with eyebrows and converse for instance, or a Yoshi alt with orange arms and resting eyelids - but when you're working with even as much as like, a 15-or-so alt limit, it's just bad.
you ever think about the fact that one of the most popular streamers right now attributes his popularity to playing talking ben?
I want to show the Minecraft Movie mid-credits out of context not to someone from the 1200s or whatever, but rather the early 2000s (or maybe super late 90s) - it makes no sense regardless without knowledge of Minecraft, sure, but I think it would be enhanced as a clueless experience with the mindset of the 2000s hype about realistic CGI - 1. you've finally got realistic CGI, but you're using it to make block graphics? and 2. you've finally got realistic CGI and you're using it to make... this?
Something I learned while getting into Mickey lore due to the PD entry back in early '24 is that Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has a lot of really random cameos from the original shorts, like it's Sonic Mania for Mickey Mouse or something. Salty the Seal, Wilbur the Grasshopper, Butch the Bulldog, these are all otherwise dormant characters they just decided to bring back for Clubhouse. Figaro from Pinocchio is there not because they wanted to put in something from Pinocchio, but because he had crossovers with Pluto back after Pinocchio first came out.
It's kinda interesting to think that some things we may see and not think much of, that don't appear to have avid fanbases, are basically someone else's Sonic Mania or Smash Ultimate. There's gotta have been some wiki editor out there back when Clubhouse first aired who didn't mind watching a "baby show" and was deep into 40s Disney and always anticipated the next big Clubhouse cameo. God bless you, wherever you are.
oh no "main character first" and "that's right, we're going back in time to the first jigglypuff to get meowth on the menu" are already back on the unpopular opinions thread
AdBlock is currently just showing 2 seconds of a commercial, then cutting to the last frame, and it's really funny because what was probably a heartstring-pulling ad instead comes out as just... crying baby. logo shot.
wait
if homer and bart's hairs and ears combine to read "MG" (matt groening), what would happen if bart created a cartoon character?
DO NOT GO ON MARIOWIKI DOT COM SLASH MARIO KART WORLD AND LOOK AT THE IMAGE FOR DOLPHIN
UTTER VULGARITY.
i can't believe feraligatr and yorgle teamed up to kill the unpopular opinions thread with fighter #121 Fork and dingodile and shouzou kaga did nothing about it.
I have been corrected and must provide an ammendum to one of my marketable catchphrases:
Shouzou Kaga did not do nothing wrong. He did little wrong. A lesser evil, you know?
I've said this before, but it bears repeating:
Red Alarm is the second best Virtual Boy game, not Jack Bros - and I say that as someone who likes the genre of game Jack Bros. is more than the genre of game Red Alarm is.
I think the moment where I realised that appealing to fan demand is inherently insincere was when the FNAF movie had a promotional video called "For The Fans". "Ohhh yeah, that's a focus-tested major promotional video for a wide-released $20 million movie.... I don't think fan demand is the antidote to corporate meddling anymore."
I think that Loss memes often forget to make the third line lower than the second. They're still legible, sure, but it goes a long way.
I really hope the 8 kids who's parents will get suckered into buying moocowillion dollar Switch 2 games don't end up talking about it the same way the 8 kids who's parents got suckered into buying banjillion dollar N64 games talk about that.
I do get the idea of "people want characters in Smash because they like them" in intent, but it never feels like that attitude shows in Smash discussion. If that is all there is to it... why do we argue? Why must we defend our choices? Why were support threads always opened and twitter accounts always pinned with giant "reasons for being" lists? What's the point if it all just comes back to just "I want Geno because I like Super Mario RPG"? Why are main protags the ones people always go for? There's gotta be a large amount of Crash fans who like Cortex or Coco or Dingodile or Tiny or the Viscount or whoever better than Crash, why aren't we seeing alternate options like that often in Smash discussion if it is all about just "what character you like"? Why does fan demand matter when SOMEONE will eventually like EVERY character?
While I won't deny that Roblox/Fortnite are infinitely more shady, people absolutely underestimate how bad the monetization was on sites like Club Penguin back in the day.
As a kid I thought that "Donkey Kong - Donkey Kong Jr. - Donkey Kong 3" was a really weird sequel title progression and I still have no clue why.
I'm pretty sure I didn't know about the Donkey Kong 2 Game & Watch (and if anything that makes it less confusing because that's also a DKJ adaptation and more faithful to the arcade game than the "DK Jr." titled G&W)
TIL that random people you've never met stopping you from what you're doing on the street just to say "I like your hair" for no practical reason is culturally considered a good thing for uhhh.... some reason?????? Guess that's why people do it?
Why do I have to go to hell and back just to set "right click" to "function button"??? -
