Everyone: Hero is coming soon!
Me: Banjo & Kazooie's page might become available soon!

I feel the same way. I know it sounds selfish but I just want Hero to be released already so that were one step closer to Banjo & Kazooie.

Is it weird that I'm specifically looking forward to Hero just so I can see what the Classic Mode is like?

Well, I mean, I also want to know about the Mii Costumes and datamines, but I dunno, Classic in this game has a pull over me that I feel only Smash 64 really matched.

Yep, quite a few of Krazy's pics have made their way to our fan art gallery!

It's an immense honor for an artist like Krazy to have their fan art officially acknowledged like this. It's wonderful.

Me: both.

Of course I'd prefer to try B&K first, but as long as they're coming... And the Heroes are pretty intriguing themselves. It's all good.
Can't wait 'till they announce Doomguy, too. He's all but confirmed to me, lol.

Oh god, the salt this would generate would be lethal if this happened!

I've reached Grunty Industries in my Banjo-Tooie playthrough. Opening the entrance door was easier than I remembered it being, but so far, it reminds me of the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time, in that it's a large level where you have to do things in a really specific order so that you can proceed. Maybe it will become more open-ended once I've opened up some pathways (so far, I've made it to the second floor and gotten the washing machine transformation), but I'm not looking forward to exploring this level for all of the notes, honeycomb pieces, Cheato pages, etc.

Also, is it just me, or do enemies respawn faster in the Xbox 360 version? It's annoying when the security cameras respawn while I'm still in the room.

It would be nice to be able to play Hero for me as well, since I really like Three and Eight's designs. I like how they're a character that kind of have many items as a part of their moveset. I'd have to be honest and say I'm pretty apathetic to it, though, and what I'm really looking forward to is finally getting B&K's page. But it's a nice extra--and probably how I would feel about the rest of the Fighter's Pass now that Banjo & Kazooie are in, outside of Crash.

Imagine..... lol

This would be the most unfortunate birthday present I ever got.

It does become a bit more open... after you open every pathway.

No, really: I think I only collected, like, 2 Jiggies in the first half hour of this level. Most of it was spent opening elevator doors, unblocking vents and bolted stuff and activating the teleporters.

I think the only ones I got were the Trash Compactor and the Packing Room ones. Only got the others after everything else was said and done.

 

[SmashKeks]

Imagine..... lol

I could actually see this happening as a troll. Imagine a future E3 that has this as an announcement, shortly before the title flashes white and changes properly to Banjo Threeie, the Nuts and Bolts 2 title staying on screen juuuuust long enough for everyone to feel it in their heart.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Imagine..... lol

Honestly wouldn’t mind and would love it as long as they went back to the original character designs/the Smash designs. I guess I’d still like it, anyway...

It’s still not Threeie, though.

 

[Banjoisawesome2020]

I don't think these people care. It was never about Minecraft or Smash to them - it was about pointing and laughing at other people. Steve was just the convenient thing to use for that.

But let's stop talking about people who aren't fans of any of those things. Let's talk about the good stuff!

Apparently, the "VR Plant" leaker said Hero is "soon". We don't know how soon, but considering their track record, I think it's safe to say that at the very worst, it's one or two weeks into August if this really is the case.

Plus, GameXplain and Papa Genos posted videos of Dragon Quest Spirits found on an URL site!

 

[Cap'n Jack]

It took me some time, but in honour of Banjo & Kazooie making it into Super Smash Bros, I made a Mario Maker level themed after the first game. Feel free to try it out: L4F-G4P-42H

Grunty Industries is my least favorite level in Tooie just due to the fact how big it is and how spread out all the Jiggys, Honeycombs, Notes, and Jinjos are in the level. Grunty Industries is the only reason I will never speedrun Tooie even though I love the game to death.

I think you're right about the enemies respawning like crazy in the XBLA version.

 

[Strong Badam]

Grunty Industries is the worst level in either of the two games. Making meaningful progress takes forever and you don't earn many collectibles until you've already accomplished a lot. Which is pretty contrary to the main positive feedback loop in that type of game.

While Grunty Industries was far more difficult, I've found it to be much more memorable than Cloud Cuckooland, which is why I have a softer spot for it. It was maddening, but that partly caused a much bigger catharsis getting through it. And if we count Cauldron Keep as a level, I feel like that's objectively the worst level--a way for them to say there was 9 worlds like the previous game, but without having to make it an actual world. It was very anticlimactic.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I remember finding a few things in Grunty Industries annoying, but I think I liked it for the most part. It’s certainly huge, though.

Agreed. The level is like a giant maze. The only thing I like about Grunty Industries was Weldar. I think Weldar is the best boss in the game.

 

[Strong Badam]

Weldar is pretty well designed imo. The way of damaging him felt less contrived than the dragon brothers, since you were abusing the theme of his attack as opposed to using cannons that had no logical reason for being there.

I really loved Weldar, as it forced you to think creatively on how to defeat him, rather than allowing you to just spam him. Also, my favorite boss music in the two games. While I don't expect it, I really hope it's in Smash.

 

[RetrogamerMax]

I don't remember where I saw it, but I remember hearing one of the Rare designers explaining how their idea of Weldar came from a trash can that looked similar to him.

Hell yeah I'm in! I never grew up with Paper Mario but I beat the first one on the Wii U virtual console and it was pretty entertaining. Tried to play the second one but I never got that far into it.

Too bad F-Zero won't get this much attention...

Thousand Year Door is my all time favorite Paper Mario game and one of my favorite games of all time. I would love to see TTYD get a remake, but would prefer for the first game to get a remake first since I think that game is in more of a dying need of a graphical updated remake than TTYD. But either would be fine and dandy with me.

 

[EpicElliot]

yeah never played an F-Zero but would love to see them try SOMETHING with the IP

as for paper mario 1 i feel they would put it on the N64 classic mini if we get one

I always wanted PM1 to get a 3D remake on 3DS & PMTTYD to get a HD remake on WiiU but it never happened :/

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Maybe if fans push for another F-Zero character in Smash hard enough. Or if Miyamoto retires, whichever comes first

I am STILL SHOCKED to this day we never got a bloodfalcon echo fighter yet ? Like he could of used some of Captain falcons custom moves from smash wii u & be a literaly no effort falcon echo in smash ultimate

As far as Nintendo's concerned F-Zero seems to be over, much like Mother not getting new characters since Brawl. It doesn't help that there hasn't been a consensus on a single F-Zero character from fans so far.

#BlackShadow4Smash!

To me it comes down to either him, Jody or Deathborne (shout-out to Mc.Rad ).

 

[JonSmash]

oh good we got some more #RemasterThousandYearDoor fans here <3

 

[RetrogamerMax]

Well what about Samurai Goroh?

 

[EpicElliot]

If I could pick a F-zero character for smash I would want James McCloud the human based off star fox's dad

he would be a echo character of both fox & captain falcon his B moves could be like fox's & his A moves could be like captain falcons or a mishmash of there moves since both fox & captain falcon are so fun to play

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Well what about Samurai Goroh?

He'd be good too, but the only issue is that we'd have to face off against the "NO SWORDS!" crowd.

 

[RetrogamerMax]

Well that sucks. We need a samurai in the roster at some point whether it be Goroh or Takamaru.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Imagine..... lol

God please no. Last thing I want is for that disgrace to be forgotten and hopefully retconned in the actual Banjo-Threeie everyone actually wanted.

 

[Guynamednelson]

It says a lot about the Smash community when F-Zero fans initially wanted a swordsman and now they're focused on someone who isn't.

Falcon's Blood Falcon alt has had its colors ruined after Brawl, for that matter.

 

[Evil Trapezium]

No! You guys are doing it wrong! F-Zero doesn't need more Smash Bros characters! No Black Shadow! No Blood Falcon echo fighter please! Especially not Blood Falcon echo fighter because it'll just be a couple of changes to taunts and nothing else. No more echo fighters in general because they end up being glorified skins.

Besides if anyone should be the next F-Zero character, it should be Pico because he is OG and he wields a gun...

What about Dr. Stewart? He's an actual surgeon doctor, and not a pharmacist.
