I feel Smash fans can be a little over-democratic. There's a belief that we're entitled to a character on virtue of being popular alone when that is far from the case. I remember seeing a Tweet from a K. Rool fan account a LONG time ago that retweeted and reworded a Star Fox Tweet into "when fans ask you to put in a character, DO IT!" - that's not how it works, dudes.

I keep on checking in on the Geno thread post-Sephiroth and... wow, it's kinda depressing. All the ego and cockiness blew up in their face - as much as I want to feel some wacky karmic schadenfreude, it's just sad to see people so upset over a character they like not getting in, some are even threatening to boycott Nintendo and Square.

The one thing keeping Shantae away from Smash:

Knowing WayForward, she'd probably just make unsubtle innuendos about her nipples going hard.

I love the Smash stages with audiences because it's funny to imagine someone going to a gladiator coliseum or boxing ring then seeing a white-haired wizard shoot fire at a small dog, which then goes on to summon a firing squad on them.

Funny trailer for wacky British cartoon animals
Smash fans: DAYUM, THAT'S BADASS

Epic trailer for genocidal sword-wielding villain
Smash fans: haha funny point go in mario

This isn't a criticism.

Instead of simply holding Mario, Sephiroth should've popped Kirby. He's a balloon, he's got a sword, he's supposed to be the saviour from Galeem, he killed Galeem - it fits thematically. Also I hate Kirby.

Honestly I'm just glad the SE rep ain't Geno, a bit of a richardish thing to say I'll admit, but it helps Waluigi's chances greatly given most of the supposed evidence for Geno could also apply to any other Mario character.

I'm not that mad about the Sephiroth reveal, but at the same time this is making me glad that I didn't buy FP2.

Also target audience theory is dead.

I can't believe Mew2King got Fancy Pants confused for Goku.

Sonic Lost World is my favourite modern Sonic game, but that's mostly because it doesn't even try to be a Sonic game. I'd say that's better than trying to replicate what made Sonic so great and failing.

"I would've had to cut the FE reps to get Wario" Sounds like the brightest timeline to me.

Celeste is one of my favourite indie games gameplay-wise, but the plot feels very unsubtle to me. I'm not against platformers having plots, or even emotional plots for that matter - but Celeste feels super pretentious.

Then again, if it helped people get through hard times like I've heard, it was all worth it. Plus I can't really judge since most times I try to conceptualise a story or character I usually put in a little too many emotional beats.

Imagining based Nintendo in an alternate timeline...

I find the appeal of Geno really hard to understand. He's a wooden puppet with a gun for a hand who's possessed by a star. An original and interesting concept, don't get me wrong, but even when compared to other Mario RPG characters he's not that unique. A cloud who can control the weather and was raised by frogs, a transgender witch-ghost with fire hands, a narcissistic but heroic warrior made of beans, deranged rabbit versions of existing characters - I can see why people like ol' Howdy Doody over there, but I don't get why he's so popular.

Turns out chess is basically the Smash Bros. of real life sports - takes equally as much effort and passion, is equally as intense to watch, but people just don't take it seriously because of gameplay differences. I never knew about the "is chess a sport?" debate and just assumed it has a competitive scene, therefore it's a sport - which I still stand by.

"Food gets tricked into being eaten" ads are supposed to be darkly funny, but they just end up being unironically tragic.

Wario Wario Wario · Dec 8, 2020

Most criticisms of any esport can be shot down solely by imagining them applied to a regular sport like tennis, chess or football.

I like Smash Remix, but I've always disliked that they never truly 100% devoted to the time period and include references to and characters from games released after 1999.

The best way to get YouTube views is to deny objective facts about fictional characters.

Ahh yes, my favourite PlayStation characters: Asterix, Wakko Warner, and Clank without Ratchet.

In the UK we never had the classic Christmas movies like Charlie Brown and Rudolph - we just watch a bunch of random animated movies that have nothing to with Christmas.

One of these movies is literally a Valentines' Day movie.

All this time the Bugsnax theme was singing "kinda bug and kinda snack", and not "find a bug, become a snack"? but like... the latter interpretation fits the game better!

I feel like the world has slowly turned against Charmander and towards Squirtle.

People often say you need conflict to tell a good story and I feel that's kinda true to an extent, but if you've got good enough characters and write them well enough, anything can be entertaining - even going to the store to buy some milk or hell, watching paint dry! - but you probably would need to get the reader/viewer/listener invested in the characters first (hence why "fluff" generally works better as fanfiction or one-off episodes of TV shows) and would need characters more fit for mundane situations.

I might give some support for the Glover kickstarter. Was going to support Fraymakers but that's already hit its goal, Glover needs a lot more help getting off the ground.

Boycotting a company because they don't pay their employees well is a really counterintuitive thing to do, because then they'll just have less money to pay their employees.
