    I liked the Sonic movie, but Detective Pikachu was infinitely better IMO. Sonic just struck me as a really good, but not-so-special kids' road trip movie that could've been done equally as good, if not better, with an original "fast alien" character - while Detective Pikachu felt like a real Pokemon world coming to life on screen (including the warts that are easy to overlook in an anime style) with a compelling plot that's equally as ridiculous as it is heartfelt, perfect for Pokemon - it's the rare live action adaptation that has reason to be live action.

    Strange how both of them had cocaine jokes though.

    I really want to see a PG-13 Pokemon Movie now.

    I remember first seeing the trailer for Detective Pikachu and thinking “Oh my god! That CGI is scary!” and the shock from that was really memorable...

    But the shock from seeing movie Sonic... that’s a lot more memorable

    I like how rantsona video thumbnails tend to use blood font, stormy backgrounds, stock image fire, e.t.c. to refer to things as decidedly not-death-inducing as traced artwork and foot jokes in children's TV shows.

    I kinda like Old Movie Sonic, but less in a "that's such a cool Sonic design!" way, and more a "it's so ugly, it's adorable" way

    Aaaand I’m done with smashboards for today. You can like it, but anything that makes me look at Old Movie Sonic one more time than I needed to is something I need to avoid for a while.
    (I don’t literally mean I’m done with the site, just the status part of it).

    One thing the gaming community is pretty much alone on is the hatred of 4:3 and 30FPS. Movies tend to use 24FPS (the standard for TV animation is 12FPS!), and many movies, especially indie productions or movies trying to replicate a retro feel, experiment with 4:3.

    Even though there's absolutely no reason for it, it would be kinda nice for Waluigi to get his own gamma series symbol, as to bridge the gap of him being a Wario-related character who doesn't appear in Wario games. That being said I think the preferable outcome would be him getting the Mario series symbol but the Wario victory theme.

    The Mario 3D All-Stars reveal trailer shows the only 3 examples of redrawn textures in 64. Surely this could count as false advertising by omission?

    Ehh, kinda? I love SM64 but even upscaled it's not gonna look 'that' much better than it already does. Besides, didn't they make the HUD cleaner?

    Yeah, the HUD looks pristine in all stars.

    Never forget Butch Hartman's terrible Carls Jr. cartoon

    OK, seriously though - is this even legal? it's a scummy marketing practice comparable to Linus the Lionhearted.

    I like how the sssnake hisssssesss every word with an SSS sssyllable excccept "Carls"

    I honestly don't see what's so special about Wario's shoulder bash. It's really just a generic platformer rush attack all things considered, it works perfectly as a dash attack. I don't know how you could play as a guy who runs over people with a motorbike and say "God, I wish he rammed into people with his shoulder instead."

    Mostly because it was what he originally started with as his main attack, you know. Even though DK doesn't use barrels in Smash, everyone equates barrels to DK because, ya know, arcade DK used them. Same with Mario and his jumping prowess.

    There's also the fact that some people just really love the Wario land/world series and wish they'd make another instead of focusing on the sillier-side of Wario in the -ware series.

    Its more iconic. Mario jumps, Sonic runs, Crash Bandicoot spins and Wario shoulder dashes. It just feels that way. I do think it works fine as a dash attack, but I wouldn’t mind changing it to a side special. At first it seems like it would be an uninteresting move, but they could probably throw in some things from Wario Land 4 to make it more interesting.

    "So, how can we fight the rising crime rate?"

    "Perhaps we could criminalise parental behaviours that have a direct link to children growing up to be aggressive?"

    "Legalise victimless crimes?"

    "Put more money into a rehabilitation system?"

    "Ban dangerous weapons that only exist to kill?"

    "Nah, let's throw people into grimy rooms with no mental health support and shout at them all day after shaming them first and last name on television, that'll do the trick."

    I was thinking of starting a general support thread for serpentine fighters. Turns out there aren't many serpentine video game characters, like in general, let alone ones people would actually care about.

    …Is Snivy a joke to you? Like, it evolves into a serpentine Pokémon! Snivy’s category is literally called “the Grass Snake Pokémon”.

    I had this ridiculous dream where a reconstructed, multicoloured, dinosaur with leaves for scales-er, feathers- and visible bones came to one of my old schools, and even though I knew it was made of leaves and couldn't harm me, I was still terrified out of my mind.

    Also half way through the dream I sung Disney Renaissance karaoke for no reason.

    Memes this year have included:

    Banjo-Kazooie (90s)
    Fanboy & Chum Chum (2010s)
    Clone High (2000s)

    Now we just need a meme of something from the 80s, preferably a video game, and the holy quartet of decades will be complete.

    I can't stop laughing over GoAnimate Arthur's ear.


    Grounded videos are some of the best "so bad it's good" stuff online. Honestly I can't help but respect them, they are creatively absurd and I get the feeling a lot of the kids who make this stuff will go on to be very successful.

    I remember one time I praised Nick Robinson's videos on SmashBoards, and someone told me he was a "serial rapist".

    Turns out all he did was flirt with people 3 years ago, which he apologised for.

    It’s best to tune that stuff out and not let it affect you. Some people are quick to accuse others (and for good reason) but some often take it to extremes. I feel that, while their original intentions are understandable, the execution is completely wrong. I’m not a fan of kneejerk reactions to social issues without proper investigation and ensuring everyone has a voice in the issue. That’s of course when it’s completely obvious the accused is 100% in the wrong and did stupid/bad/horrible/illegal stuff to get them cancelled.

    If we are remembering what crazy people have said here...

    I remember when someone called me a “race traitor” for marrying outside of my race. Fun times.

    Remember the time someone hacked into Sony Music's Twitter to post "britney spears is dead by accident" and people somehow genuinely believed it?

    I don't get the logic behind dismissing a group as a "vocal minority" - surely if said minority is VOCAL they're the more devoted crowd, and will be more pleased about their requests being met? Quality over quantity, y'know?

    Correct, but what do businesses love above all else, I'll give you a hint, it's not happy customers despite how much they may say it in their slogans.

    The fact is, yeah, Nintendo makes a ton of money, like, a ton..... but why stop there? Why not make... more? Why not make more money if you're given the choice to? We sit here and think "Well, to make the fans happy of course", when the CEOs sit there and think "To line our pockets and make them fatter". Companies are not your friend, and while they may make things that you enjoy, never forget they don't see you as anything more than the money that you hand them.

    So, let's say that this pass, despite only having one known character right now, let's say Nintendo has two choices, but they could only pick one, just go with me here for this thought experiment, I don't actually believe this is happening internally.


    Let's say that whoever deciding the roster decided on another Capcom rep, and it came down between Amaterasu... or Dante. On one hand, Amaterasu is a character from a very loved game, albeit, still somewhat niche, but she has a small, but I'd argue somewhat vocal fanbase... On the other hand, you have Dante, the character that pretty much is the most requested character in Japan. If you were a business, would you pick the underdog, or the big gun? One will make some fans happy, the other will make a lot of people happy and make a ton of money.


    Sure, sometimes, we get the Banjo scenarios where the underdog wins in the end, but that's very rare. Look at Geno currently, thus far, Square has opted for pushing their much bigger, more iconic IPs than the little puppet, despite 15~ years of fan outcry.

    I am not speaking from how Nintendo would act, I'm speaking from how they SHOULD act.

    Of course corporations aren't friends or well-meaning (with a few rare exceptions such as Ben & Jerry's), that goes without saying, but in an ideal world where they did have our best interests in mind they should listen to the "vocal minority".

    I mean, I don't think anyone would disagree with you, but we don't live in that ideal world. Corporations like Nintendo are driven via capitalism, which is a constant need for more and more growth and profit.
