Social 7th Heaven - Cloud Social Thread

Let's just hope he doesn't pull a Project M.
"Yeah, we promised Cloud. Psyche!"

> Implying they knew they'd have to stop before teasing
They closed down PM because they realized a C&D is what they'll get if they're lucky, otherwise they'll be taken to court, and the don't have the money to do it

Cloud and Shulk would also be a good one. Classic and Modern JRPG heroes

If Cloud had to have any pictures with another character, it has to be Shulk.

What are the chances of having an FFVII (of FF in general) Assist Trophy?
I know Ryu didn't get one, so no promises there, but... What if there was?

Maybe Barret with his ultimate Limit Break?
Yuffie stealing other players' command inputs? (Steals Up+B, Steals Fsmash, etc)
Or maybe just a Chocobo ramming everyone?

I know nobody here probably plays with items, but I do turn on ATs from time to time just to mess with them (or the other way around), but it'd be pretty kewl.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

I play with items quite often, actually.

I think FF7 items or Assist Trophies would be baller.

You guys think we'll see Cloud footage at VGAs? Reggie did say something about #SettleItInSmash and I'm guessing the Sony representative will play as Cloud (why not?).

The only Smash thing I expect is a release date for the Broadcast

Interestingly, Xenogears started out as FFVII.

Interestingly, Xenogears started out as FFVII.

That's actually kind of interesting, if it's true. But how?

I get how Secret Of Mana ended up being Chrono Trigger (or the other way around), two of the main characters look pretty much like the other two main characters.


Anyway, it's nice how the relation between Nintendo and Sony has grown into a more friendly rivalry (although each party says they are not competing with each other, since they have different views), but they still compliment each other whenever they have the chance.

And on a note more related to the thread. I do recall people saying that Square-Enix was going to remake FFVII ONLY if FFXIII was a success.
... I take it it was a success? Or at least one of its sequels?

 

[Kalierdarke]

Interestingly, Xenogears started out as FFVII.

And FF7 started out as a remake of FF6 on the N64, or was at least planned to be tied to it in some way.

 

[Strong-Arm]

I am alive people, how goes it

 

[Hanku Hirru]

I have a feeling we'll get one of two outcomes tonight:

1) Reggie announces the date of the Nintendo Direct and we'll have to wait until the conference to download Cloud

OR incredibly wishful thinking on my part:

2) Reggie announces the date of the Nintendo Direct conference, delivers us Cloud tonight, and adds fuel to the hype train regarding the next batch of fighters

 

[Bobert]

So I started playing FF7 about two weeks ago for only the second time ever as I never got far the first time I played it and didn't play it again for a long time. I wasn't expecting Sephiroth to have a second phase and completely destroy me after beating Jenova Absolute and his first phase super easily. I guess that's what I get for not getting Ribbons and KOTR. I still somehow got the achievement for getting Cloud's last Limit Break despite not winning.

Edit: Uh..never mind. I didn't realize x4 cut would kill him in two turns..

 

[RebelXII]

This a very interesting conclusion to Smash DLC. Something tells me this broadcast will change video game history as we know it.

That's a very interesting avatar you have there. Makes me think I've seen it somewhere before...hmmm...

 

[Nu~]

There's supposed to be an event tonight?

 

[The_Cardinal]

There's supposed to be an event tonight?

Yeah, I'm assuming you're referring to the video games award in roughly an hour.

 

[JesseMcCloud]

Here's the live feed:

Apologies in advance if the streaming content isn't held to the same censorship standards as the broadcast version.

I'll keep my expectations for the VGX very, very, very low. Sure, Nintendo had some decent showings last year (new Zelda Wii U footage was nice), but I don't want to have high expectations when we could get literally nothing...

I still remember VGX 2013 very vividly on Smashboards. Everyone was getting hyped for either Smash for Zelda footage and what we got was Cranky Kong getting confirmed for Tropical Freeze.

Dude... Dude. Cranky is the bomb.

Don't toy with my emotions, son. My poor heart can't take it.

Cue Sephiroth's theme.

Also, somehow this image was in the search results of "shall I give you dis pear". Thanks, Google, Aerith is totally a pear... Well... Hmm... IS SHE/HER BODY PEAR-SHAPED!?

 

[JesseMcCloud]

and just like that, Splatoon wins the multiplayer game of the year award.
Also, Nathan Drake punching women confirmed. Now all I can do is picture a Smash announcement with him pistol-whipping Peach across the face with the tagline, "Nathan Drake punches in!"
And now Shaq Fu is a thing. Again.

I'd think having a summon would make the most sense. Like Shiva but I don't recall her in ff7

Shiva existed in Final Fantasy VII, for sure.

Then a Shive assist would be cool.

Shaq for smash

REGGIE IS TALKING RIGHT NOW! LET'S GO!

 

[Ffamran]

Shaq for smash

The ultimate battle between Shaq and Lucina will finally be realized. Luci's going to lose.

 

[Hanku Hirru]

MESSAGE ME IF CLOUD IS F'REAL.

Must make dinner.

[Kuraudo]

Lmao this whole section of paying respect for Satoru Iwata and a buncha people are like, "BRACE YOURSELF FOR NEWS!!"

Or? Maybe we're just having an awesome moment to remember an amazing dude.

He didn't say anything about smash...just nintendo in general.

Welp. RIP Smash news.

 

[Monsieur_Rox]

I loved the part when Nintendo talked about news, pretty solid stuff

 

[Tri Knight]

Well, I had a feeling GOTY was gonna go to Witcher 3. Nice to see Super Mario Maker be nominated though.

 

[JesseMcCloud]

Welp. RIP Smash news.

I believe the word of the day is, "consternation."
