Wario Wario Wario

I remember once seeing a post that went like

"I remember once seeing a post that went like "Sakurai basing Sonic on 1, The Fighters, CD, 06, and Shadow is like basing Mario on 1, Hotel, is Missing, Pinball Land and Sunshine" but really it's more like basing Mario on 1, World, Kart 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy"

and I honestly don't either is an apt comparison. I think a better allegory is basing Crash on 1, Bash. Huge Adventure, Twinsanity, and Titans.

In a decade's time it'll probably be economically possible to give out handhelds with actual 80s/early 90s retro games as kids meal toys - like the old McDonald's LCD toys, but with "dodge the cars" swapped for Sonic 2. Certainly would result in a few literal riots if a one/two-per-customer rule isn't enforced though.

I want to want AiAi in Smash, but I have no clue how he could possibly play, even considering the party minigames.

A Monkey Ball stage or an AiAi AT? Now that would be good.

I kinda wish Smash had more ambient tracks like Environmental Noises; 25M; Gamer, e.t.c. They're not that good for listening but make for a great novelty in the battles themselves. The Item Room Ambience from Super Metroid would be absolutely perfect

The choice of Free Wi-Fi in this case is actually completely rational - it only says "Free Book", not "Free Picture Book" or "Free Dictionary" or "Free Car Manual" or anything like that, just "book" - with the Wi-Fi you know what you're getting, while the book is a gamble - especially given how vague just "book" is.

I can't believe Nintendo let an arsonist get a Mii costume.

I just realised, thanks to Janx_uwu 's post about Machamp in the HWYR thread, that Incineroar doesn't have any fire, cat, or Pokémon specific moves, so any wrestling character could be an echo of him - it'd be cool if Starman got in with all the other NES Pro Wrestlers (well, except Kin Corn Karn, he's best left in the past) as alts.

Hey conservatives, if capitalism breeds innovation why did McDonald's replace my man Speedee with a clown?

Subliminal advertising.

Mushroomy Kingdom gets a lot of use here, huh. Also a lot of depressing environmentalist themes. Coincidence, I swear.

Hello, Cineworld? Is it true you're showing an anniversary reissue of The Karate ADULT?

I'm almost certain Omega forms get more use in casual play than competitive.

I like how all the songs in the Donkey Kong cartoon are either broadway-worthy masterpieces or absolute atrocities against professional songwriting. There is no in-between

Even though I'm very strictly opposed to changing Wario's moveset, I think Land Wario as a seperate fighter would be

Sony: Starts taking down EarthBound music
Wacky game "reviewers":

Just found out Alestorm covered a song from the DKC cartoon.

Take that how you will.

Another fake Direct music list screen.

Image from a Direct in an alternate timeline where Nintendo doesn't make Smash, acknowledge the cartoon exists, and the standards for professional graphic design are much lower.

Every time someone in a creation thread posts an idea I really like or would've submitted if I didn't want to submit another instead, I really want to post this gif, but I think I should save it for when a REALLY good idea comes up.

I turned myself into a pickle, Ness, I'm fuzzy pickle Jeff!

My anime waifu is Ikarudo.

My biggest disappointment with the Sonic Symphony is that they didn't include anything from Schoolhouse. I'm not memeing. Imagine this song being played by a live orchestra, it'd be beautiful.

Decided to make my ideal Smash roster, with 100 unique fighters and 10 echoes. What I've created is so potentially controversial, it could be easily mistaken for satire.

YouTube removed the cursed Scooby-Doo SpongeBob PS2 video and I'm really upset.

People joke about Smash Sonic being a "simple one-button character" but that was literally the intent.

Yeah, I listen to Linkin Park

I do wonder what the Shantae costume will look like when used by male Miis. Will they go shirtless like the Toad costume? Will they have a vest? Will it just be the bra but flattened?

Harmless, non-anthropomorphic animal: exists
1930s Mickey Mouse:

Pac-Man's gloves look so ugly in SSBU. Why did they make them brown?

I want to believe.

The Mario Kart 9 creation thread is still active and we don't want it to die, be sure to pop by some time. We've recently added some more wild card characters - including Ashley; K. Rool; and Vivian - and some brilliant courses.

New headcanon: Waluigi has just as much a grudge with Tails as he has with Luigi

Is he jealous of Tails' IQ? Is he still angry after Tails ran into spikes when he was playing the Sonic 2 special stage? Does he mistake the kit's optimism and pluck for smug and snark? I don't know.

I think Crash is the one potential Mii costume people would be more disappointed in if it WERE a "deluxe."

Stop posting "Mii costumes deconfirm", what a ridiculous idea!

It's spelled disconfirmed. Mii costumes disconfirm.

Remember, kids: It's not a Jojo reference, it was a reference in Jojo.

Heaven's Door? Isn't that the cult with the sneakers?
