Be it as a standalone character or as part of Paper Mario’s moveset, would Vivian be able to be in Super Smash Bros?

The games a platform fighter, so you know, lots of jumping, but if I recall correctly Vivian is always rooted to the ground via her shadow.

Joke Time!

So, the post-timeskip One Piece characters that are among the highest tiers of power. What’s their favorite sport?

I’m not going to lie. As good of a feature as auto saving is, in terms of what could be considered essential game features nowadays it’s probably the most meaningless one to me personally.

Reason being that even if a game has auto save, I get so paranoid about losing my progress that I always manually save before I stop playing a game anyway.

Cool of a mode as the original All-Star Mode was, I feel like there is such a thing as the roster becoming too big for it to really be something that can stick around.

What I'd like to ask all of you though is, did the roster for Ultimate reach that point?

I'm going to name a type of pizza and I want to see what you guys choose for a method to brutally destroy it with.

I overheard someone on the bus mention “Rice Krispies Drinks” just now and I thought to myself “There’s no way that’s actually a real thing. I had to have misheard that.”

I looked it up to verify and it ended up being half-true. Ultimately I think they were referring to the Rice Krispies Flavor for those Breakfast Essentials drinks, but in the process I did learn that Rice Krispies treats are used in certain adult beverages.

Like the Spiked Rice Krispie Treat Shake Shooters.

For as much talk relating to Wario Land that goes on around here, I haven't seen anyone talk about some good ideas for a Wario Land stage in Smash.

I know the Golden Pyramid from Wario Land 4 has some potential in this regard but that's the only Wario Land stage I can picture. I wonder what else is out there that would make for good options.

Bucky O Hare on NES
Super Adventure Island
Contra 3
Kid Chameleon
Shining Force
Kirby’s Dream Land
Ecco the Dolphin
Super Mario Kart
Art of Fighting
Dragon Quest 5
Mortal Kombat
Night Trap
Super Mario Land 2
Sonic 2
Alone in the Dark
Mega Man 5
Fatal Fury 2

All games that are 32 years old as of this year. Which is how old I am as of today.

About one of the most popular anime and manga series of all time, why do they call it “One Piece” when the main female character wears bikini’s all the time?

Top 10 Chickens in Video Games according to blockfort.com

#10 - The Chicken Mobs in Minecraft

#9 - The Chickens in Stardew Valley

#8 - Abraxas from Shin Megami Tensei

#7 - Drumstick from Diddy Kong Racing

#6 - Goose from Animal Crossing

#5 - Bomb Chicken from a platformer of the same name

#4 - General Tsao from Sly Cooper 3

#3 - Cheep Cheep the Cooking Chicken from PaRappa the Rapper

#2 - The Flying Rooster from Link's Awakening

#1 - Pollo Juan from the Guacamelee games.

To this day I have never found an easier one of those “One gotta go” challenges then the one where the choice was between Pancakes, Waffles, French Toast, and Cinnamon Rolls.

Getting rid of French Toast out of those 4 is such an easy choice for me.

The game where Wario tries to become rich by treasure hunting is called Wario Land.

The game where Wario tries to become rich by making video games is WarioWare.

What should we call the game where Wario tries to become rich by revolutionizing the automobile industry with cars that are powered by his gas instead of actual gas?

I really enjoyed my time with Dragalia Lost, and became enough of a fan to where I would like to see the series continue beyond the one mobile game.

That being said, I kind of wish they picked a different name than Shapeshifting for the ability to take on the form of a dragon.

Shapeshifting is a word I find annoying because whenever I’m typing it I always have to be careful to not forget the F in Shift.

Pressure Point Combat is something present in a few forms of media like Naruto, Fist of the North Star, and a couple Superman Comics, but I do wonder if it’s actually a form of combat that’s a thing in real life.

And if so, then I also wonder how effective it is.

Joke Time!

What is the most surefire way to tell that a cow and a pig truly are best friends forever?

One of the worst points I've seen used in a Smash Bros. review was when two guys reviewing brawl said that the hype the game generated was a bad thing about the game that nearly ended up killing the game.

A pretty flawed argument.

Gotta be honest, I prefer the approach Ultimate took with Final Smashes over how the more gimmicky ones worked in the past.

It’s nice to have a consistent basis for them and some of the more annoying ones to use like Giga Bowser and Wario Man are much more tolerable now.

I was scrolling through YouTube and was recommended a video titled “Longplay of Wario Land 4” but because I was just casually glancing at it without giving the title a serious read, I thought for a moment that it said “Longplay of Wario Land 64”.

sigh……if only.

I wonder how many people in the modern day still think they should bring back the Chao Garden in Sonic games.

Aside from 1-1, which level of the original Super Mario Bros. would you pick to be a Smash Stage?

Do any of you have a character in Smash who doesn’t click with you even though you know it’s a you problem.

You think the character is a good inclusion, you don’t think there’s any problem with how the character looks, you think their moveset is good, all that stuff that makes you know it’s a good character but for some reason you just feel weird about that character in Smash anyway?

For me that’s Diddy Kong.

Back in 2020 a Devinantart user by the name of evilwaluigi posted a picture he drew of a hypothetical roster for the next console Mario Kart game after Mario Kart 8. I thought it was a really good roster at the time, and going to back to see it again now, I still think it's really solid.

But what do you guys think of it? I've shared the image below. Fair warning, it's a bright picture. So prepare your eyes if you have a dark colored Smashboards theme.

What if they delisted April Fools Day as a holiday and just made April Fools something an all month long thing for the month of April like how November has No Nut November?

Team Four Star's HFIL series depicts Freiza as the equivalent of a teenage high school brat by belittling those around them in a petty way to make themselves seem superior to everyone else, yet they're also super insecure about their shortcomings. Like how Freiza can't accept the fact that his reign as emperor ended when his life did and still tries to insist he's the top dog of the universe.

As funny and as fitting as this depiction is, it is weird to think about when you know that in canon Freiza does return from the dead and even achieves a form that surpasses Goku's Ultra Instinct.

Pirating is a weird thing to categorize. Generally speaking it is a bad thing because it does hurt the companies in question. Even if they’re huge companies that make tons of money they can’t just let instances of pirating slide every once in a while because a few people on the internet think the losses wouldn’t hurt them. That’s just not how running a business works.

Yet at the same time, there are instances where pirating is kind of your only option. Like say that’s the only way you have access to a certain cartoon or anime that you want to watch. If a pirating site is the only option because it’s not available on any streaming services then there you go. Even with video games, if it’s for a system that’s been discontinued, and therefore is no longer being supported and sold by its company, then sure, emulate it. Heck, I’d even say go for it if said game on an older system is available on the digital store of a modern console.

But without question, support the product officially without resorting to pirating whenever possible. Pirating does impact them in a negative way. Even if it’s a big company the people there still worked hard on that product. Show them your support.

I see you have chosen wisdom

I used to be pretty obsessed with the idea of spiritual successors to classic game franchises that either haven’t seen a new entry in years or hit a questionable state of quality. Like how Bloodstained is the spiritual successor to Castlevania.

Nowadays I’ve lightened up on that obsession, but I do find it to be pretty neat that a lot of the classic franchises in question now have 2 really notable spiritual successors instead of just 1.

Wario Land -> Pizza Tower and Antonball

Sonic the Hedgehog -> Freedom Planet and Spark the Electric Jester

Mega Man -> Azure Striker Gunvolt and 20XX

Banjo-Kazooie -> Yooka-Laylee and Clive N Wrench

And I wouldn’t be surprised if The Messenger and Cyber Shadow could be considered spiritual successors for Ninja Gaiden, but I don’t know for sure if they would actually count.

I'm kind of afraid to ask this, but I remember one time I saw a comment praising James Rolfe by saying something along the lines of "In light of how many popular youtubers have had bad skeletons in their closets revealed, I am so happy that in all the years James has been active, the only real controversy he ever faced was people acting like idiotic jerkwads over him not wanting to see Ghostbusters 2016".

As far as I am aware that debacle of not wanting to see Ghostbusters 2016 still remains the only real controversy James has ever found himself in. Is that actually the case?

Joke Time!

Since a staple design trait of Sonic is that he never wears clothes, what’s another term for him running around?

Idea:

The next Wario Land game is also a crossover with Pizza Tower where Wario and Peppino are both the playable characters and they’ve teamed up because Peppino told Wario “You can have all the treasure. I just want to make Captain Syrup pay for sabotaging my parlor by covering all the pizza in syrup!”

Going off of my last post about games that can’t be beaten, I do know of a 3D Collectathon Platformer on the N64 where you can beat the main game, but it’s impossible to complete it at 100%

It’s called Space Station Silicon Valley and the reason it can’t be fully completed is because the programmers forgot to give one of the collectables any collision. So it’s literally impossible to pick it up.

I recently saw AVGN’s video about beating Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde and the way he had the video play out by saying he couldn’t beat the game until he learned some new tricks about it that he didn’t know before had me thinking.

Does there exist a game with an ending where it actually is completely impossible to reach that ending?

A pretty good idea I’ve seen from a couple moveset makers is putting Eevee in Smash with the ability to evolve into a single Eeveelution for the rest of the match.

But if we’re talking the idea of a character that is just straight up one single Eeveelution without Eevee or an evolution mechanic being involved, which Eeveelution would be your favorite choice?

For me it’s a tie between Vaporeon and Espeon.

A long time ago I talked about the idea of another Mario 64 remake with 4 playable characters, but this time those characters were Mario, Sonic, Crash, and Master Chief. And I mentioned how while it's a neat idea on paper, there are a few problems with actually making the idea a reality.

One of those being that Sonic's high speed would make him nigh unplayable in over half of the levels in Mario 64. To help emphasize this, here are the levels Sonic could actually be playable in. Not counting small bonus courses like Peach's Secret Slide.

Bob-omb Battlefield
Jolly Roger Bay (Debatably. It would depend on how Sonic would deal with water in Mario 64. This same thing applies to all water heavy levels in the game.)
Big Boo's Haunt
Hazy Maze Cave
Dire Dire Docks
Snow Mans Land
Wet Dry World

And that's it. Only 7 out of the games 15 main levels. 4 if you believe he couldn't be used in the water levels. All other levels, including the 3 Bowser Levels, he'd be screwed.

I mentioned in a previous post that I could think of 19 Sonic Games where the entire set of levels in said games would make great Smash stages…….

Oh what the heck.

1. Sonic 1

2. Sonic 3 & Knuckles

3. Sonic R

4. Sonic Adventure

5. Sonic Adventure 2

6. Sonic Shuffle

7. Sonic Heroes

8. Sonic Advance 3

9. Sonic Rush

10. Sonic Riders

11. Sonic 06

12. Sonic Rivals

13. Sonic and the Secret Rings

14. Sonic Rush Adventure

15. Sonic Rivals 2

16. Sonic Unleashed

17. Sonic Colors

18. Sonic Free Riders

19. Sonic Lost World

And while I’m a bit hesitant to count this one, I can also picture a point of view where Team Sonic Racing makes a good 20th pick.

I was trying to think of something to contribute to what Champion of Hyrule mentioned about deviantart ass titles and in the process, I think I came up with the opposite by thinking of something that might actually be a little clever.

Say they release remakes of Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages and the linked versions of those two games are available, but as a new game plus once you beat the unlinked versions without having to enter a code you get after beating the other game.

We could call them Oracle of Seasons: Ageless Adventure, and Oracle of Ages: Seasoned Quest.

Idea:

Nintendo has decided that saving Bowser's Castle and Rainbow Road for the last 2 courses in the Special Cup has lost it's luster now that the retro cups and dlc cups exist. That and just the general idea of repetition.

So when the next Mario Kart game comes out, they do something different for the last two special cup tracks.

I was at Target today and in the Nintendo Switch section they had a couple plushies of Banjo and Kazooie. I will admit, I was a bit surprised.

There was this one time I was watching a twitch stream and participating in the rounds of Jackbox Games that were being played.

At one point the conversation between the streamer and his co-comm went in the direction of the streamer talking about a creek with chemicals in the water that turned frogs into catgirls, and one of the answers I gave in a round of Quiplash after that mentioned the idea of throwing Kermit into that creek and turning him into a catgirl.

I got permission from another streamer to share that clip on his stream since Kermit is a notable meme in that community and in response, someone actually shared an art piece they drew of Kermit as a catgirl.

There’s an idea for your new profile pic Champion of Hyrule

A lot of people think that Dragons are one of the coolest things in fiction and I am no different.

But from a certain point of view, it's kind of ironic that I think dragons are so awesome since I have a phobia of reptiles.
