  • My left Joy-Con’s drift is starting to get bad. Is it possible to trade my Joy-Cons in for a Switch Pro Controller, or something?
    I just realized; certain characters’ playstyle are the way they are to (possibly) fill a playstyle archetype.

    Mario: Mr. Basic playstyle
    Donkey Kong: Gorilla playstyle
    Samus: Space Marine playstyle (kinda?)
    Kirby: Mimic playstyle
    Ice Climbers: 2-in-1 Fighter playstyle
    Sheik and Greninja: Ninja playstyle (in case you couldn’t tell from the latter’s name)
    Zelda: Mystic Girl playstyle
    Marth, Roy, Ike, Lucina and Chrom: Bare Swordsman playstyle
    Diddy Kong: Small Animal playstyle
    Olimar: Commander playstyle
    Mega Man and the Belmonts: NES Platformer playstyle
    Little Mac: Boxer playstyle
    Miis: ANY playstyle the player chooses
    Robin: Magical Knight playstyle
    Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings: Mech Suit playstyle
    Ryu, Ken and Terry: Traditional Fighting Game playstyle
    Incineroar: Wrester playstyle
    Joker: Master Thief playstyle
    Hero: Turn-Based RPG playstyle
    Byleth: Master of Arms playstyle
    Min-Min: Master of TWO Arms playstyle

    I’m not necessarily defending or knocking these playstyles. Just wanted to get analytical about them.

    things like "Gorilla" and "NES Platformer" are not fighting game archetypes. Fighting game archetypes, even in Smash, are more vague, like a rushdown or a zoner.

    This is what I love most about Smash: The variety. There's like, 80+ characters now and so many of them are able to stand apart and feel radically different from one another. It's nuts.
    HWYR if Dragalia Lost had a collaboration with Crash Bandicoot, where you fought all the bosses from the original trilogy?

    That would be really cool as I loved the Mega Man and Monster Hunter events

    That would be a pleasant surprise, but I'd be questioning why they went with Crash though.
    Man, even if Wii Music wasn't a mess with how it controlled or how instruments sounded...talk about a steaming pile of wasted potential. Instead of songs from all around Nintendo's catalog, we get basic stock nursery rhymes out the wazoo.
    Is something big happening tomorrow? I have it on my brain for some reason, but I don't know why.

    I'm hoping for Estelle Bright but more likely Saber and/or Sakura

    Pipe dream, but Space Invader would fit that, extremely, extremely influential but also a very small series in terms of quantity of (notable) games.

    Bonk from Bonk's Adventure. Bona fide mascot of the PC Engine/Turbographix-16, had some Nintendo appearances here and there, rather small series in regards to noteworthy games. Pretty old, too.
    Here are the DLC Mii Costumes I’d make a part of the Challenger Packs they coincided with:

    CP1:
    -P4 Hero Outfit
    -P3 Hero Outfit
    -Teddie Hat
    -Morgana Hat

    CP2:
    -Erdrick Outfit
    -Veronica Outfit
    -Martial Artist Outfit
    -Slime Hat

    CP3: N/A

    CP4:
    -Ryo Outfit
    -Iori Outfit
    -Nakoruru Outfit

    CP5: N/A

    CP6:
    -Ninjara Outfit
    Say what you will about the current DLC stages, but I personally admire most of them for doing stuff that hasn’t been seen before in Smash

    -Mementos: Different aesthetics depending on the music
    -Yggdrasil’s Altar: Item containers that are also enemies
    -Spiral Mountain: A whole STAGE that rotates and has a different layout
    -KOF Stadium: Breakable walls on both sides of a flat arena, which makes it feel like a true fighting game
    -Spring Stadium: Platforms that are not only extra recovery tools, but can also make your jump damage enemies
    Since each Challenger Pack brings in as much as possible from that fighter’s universe, I’m a bit surprised Sakurai hasn’t considered adding Assist Trophies to each pack.

    Probably harder to implement than the rest of minor representation (including Mii costumes). You could say it's a comfort zone.

    In that case, I wish it wasn’t. It’s still easier to implement an Assist Trophy than a fighter as DLC, isn’t it?
    KirbyWorshipper2465
    KirbyWorshipper2465
    Somewhat, but on the flipside it could divert effort away from the other minor content.
    Just curious: before their official reveal, was there support for Corrin over in Japan? FE Fates was already out by the time Corrin was revealed.

    Probably, but it wouldn't have kicked off by that point. It was only two weeks.
    Wanna know how I handle 2-player Classic Mode by myself? I choose characters with both Joy-Cons, SD the P1 character, and play the rest of the P1 character’s route as the P2 character.

    …It’s mainly just a personal excuse of mine to fight different bosses as different characters (Lucas vs. Dracula, Dr. Mario vs. Marx, etc.)
    The only gatekeeping I can get behind is Assist Trophies. I mean, why make an Assist character and then lock them as a full playable character behind a $6 paywall?

    I've moved on from the whole "game problems" nonsense, and thought it'd make more sense to gatekeeping based on moral standards.

    alright i think we're getting our definitions mixed up a little here

    what he's stating is simply his dislike for the idea. even if i 100% disagree with it, it's his reasoning. however, that's not gatekeeping. gatekeeping isn't simply disliking something, it's trying to stop OTHER people from liking said thing.

    so once again, i think we need to take a step back and remember just what means what

    I agree, but you can't just live in a bubble and ignore ways in which an AT being promoted wouldn't throw away all that "hard" work...on something that took much less time than a fighter.

    Has it ever occurred to anyone that the staff simply wouldn't do it out of habit? No underlying reason to speak of.
    I woke at literally at 2am when I went to bed at 9pm. This usually happens to me the day before a Smash presentation.

    ...Which, in this case, was Father's Day! We had a sort of Swiss steak soup (thing?) and mashed potatoes for dinner, and ice cream sandwiches (with chocolate chips around the ice cream) for dessert!
    Does anyone know of a wild west-themed Fire Emblem fan game? I remember seeing one once, but I can't find it now.
    You guys remember those brand parody stickers? Stuff like Rotz and Garbage Patch Kids? I saw a lot of middle schoolers stick that onto their binders back in the day.
    Not gonna lie, I'd just about EXPLODE with rage if Spring Man got in.

    Not BECAUSE he's in (I like him as a character) but because people will rub it in my face that Spring Man got in first and not another character (out of literally 15) like the initial teaser promised.
    The power just randomly went out, and won't be back on for a couple hours.

    We're basically trapped in total darkness.
    Say, what do you think about the possibility of a Smash Ultimate Special Edition with:

    -All the DLC
    -A few new fighters
    -More new stages (both for veterans and newcomers)
    -A WoL expansion ("World of Elements" sound good?) with more cutscenes
    -Grima and Porky as bosses
    -3 more rounds in Classic Mode with a Brawl-style Target Test as the first Bonus Round
    -Way more music (both for current reps and newcomer series, as well as music for the Other section)
    I can't wait for the day when Sakurai says "we attempted to make Spring Man playable by way of disabling his Assist Trophy when he's playable during lunch breaks. But unfortunately, we ran into some complications. We didn't want to take any chance of the game crashing because of this, hence why we chose [this character] instead."

    >Expect characters like Robin to share the 12-alt luxury you have due to every other character getting 2 more alts each from Brawl

    See my point?
    Gah, which SEGA rep do I want more?

    Sakura Shinguji, for the sake of a female SEGA character?

    Or Axel Stone, for the sake of a beat 'em up rep?

    Would be neat to have a rhythm game representative so maybe Hatsune Miku or Samba De Amigo (Man, Amigo would be so bizarre XD)
    Can't wait for insensitive jerks to blame 2020 on Byleth.
    I had a dream last night where swarms of life-size dolls with button eyes-all boy and girl dolls that looked like young teenagers, in blue and pink shirts-chased me around a mall and tried to turn me into one of them. There were hundreds of them in every corner of the mall.

    The only place I could barricade myself was in a nearby closet, but to no avail. The dolls had me surrounded as they broke through the closet. Hundreds of fingers all around my body. I was pulled out of the closet and restrained as the dolls coated me in fabric and turned me into a mindless puppet.
    My aunt's dad is in the hospital, and he's not doing so well. He basically has his kidneys starting to shut down, and...none of my family can visit him, due to you-know-what.

    I think that's the worst part of this whole thing; when a loved one needs the love of another the most in this time, that's only possible via prayers or distant communication.

    I'll admit I was closer to my aunts, uncles and cousins than my aunt's father, but my prayers are with him and the rest of my aunt's family regardless.
