Sorry. I saw
PsychoIncarnate
the Geno thread owner use that name for the title of the Geno thread once. I don't like Corona virus jokes myself, but you better not get on my *** about it.
I see it as a coping mechanism.
Well I'm not gonna make it now you spoiled the surprise.
drat i wanted to show my support
Yeah, but now they're competing with each other.
Its gonna be the 30th. Lmao The ARMS character in Smash to Nintendo is considered their "Big June Release" since they have nothing else. Their gonna wait to the very end of the month like they do with 90% of their big game releases.I think Jump Rope Challenge is proof that it doesn't matter if anything gets "cannibalized" by the hype for Pokémon Swish's Expansion Pass. It's also proof that work at home in Japan is possible.
Never thought that something this silly and simple would prove both of those things, but there ya go.
As for ARMS, I figure we may hear of something sometime within the next couple of Thursdays, or the 30th, I dunno.
E3 basically doesn't exist anymore and everyone else is either doing their own E3 or Direct (hell, Geoff Keighley's has his go for over 4 MONTHS). In a context where solid plans can easily go up in smoke and a "real" direct wouldn't really stand out among the rest, might as well just release or announce what they got that's nearly, almost or is ready. This thread only expects the ARMS character anyway.
At this stage, I'm waiting to see if they'll announce an event of some sort at around 9 PM EST tonight so we can just move along the goalpost to next week.
Speaking of that, there's an 11-minute last-minute news stream for tomorrow. Can't possibly imagine what that would entail.
Apparently it's not just about SWSH DLC. Maybe we'll finally see Sleep in action? Or Rescue Team DX getting DLC? Heck, maybe even a new spinoff altogether? I've given up predicting Pokemon...
Unless the ARMS character straight up has 3D elements somewhere, it is almost definitely not taking so long just because they are from a 3D game. It is more likely due to the entire gimmick of the extendable ARMS which they are trying to implement to reflect how it is in ARMS while keeping it balanced. This ARMS character has the potential to be the weakest or strongest character in the game but they'd probably prefer to keep it middle ground. Either way it's probably got nothing to do with the 3D aspect so I don't see how this affects Tekken in any real way not that I expect it next
Given that, is there any credence to the "uses more than one ARMS/uses other characters' abilities" theories? If it's the hardest fighter to make so far.
I thought it using several ARMS/gloves was a given. I would think it'd be pretty boring if Spring Man came and he only used the toasters
Tbf these presentations are done at least 1 or 2 months in advance so it's probably been set in stone next week for a while
That, and Game Freak/The Pokémon Company are a second-party, so they don't have much bearing on what Nintendo's departments do.
I'm okay with it as long as we don't get a "Team Next Week", "Team June 30th" and "Team Delay" in the process.
Well we're right back where we started: don't know what the fighter will come with, exactly. If one has to go the literal route, Twintelle being disqualified because of using hair instead of arms would have to be brought up by some fans yet again.
being revealed on an anniversary for Smash 4 is nothing more than a coincidence.
We can't trust singulars and plurals unless we know the context of the original Japanese.
You could say the same for Hero too I guess as they were referred to with singular pronouns in some promotional stuff iirc. One character probably just means one character in the sense that's how many were made. It pretty much kills echoes or a Pokemon trainer situation which is several unique movesets in one but pretty much no one was expecting any of those scenarios anyway
Yeah, that's right, NOA's translations are occasionally unreliable. Like the "more worlds" thing. If only
PushDustIn
was here.If it's a Sakurai showcase then they almost definitely won't. It depends if it's a direct but it's probably safe to say we will only get the ARMS character. They would have branded it a smash direct if they were revealing several characters so that's kind of what it hinges on. I'd personally only expect 6 this month but 7 maybe July?
Would they announce it the same day as the Pokémon thing tho?
Maybe. Chances are more likely they'd announce the announcement.
I severely doubt it's going to be just 1 reveal, especially given that this is the month of E3. Just because E3 was cancelled doesn't mean they don't have the reveal trailer and potential release date for FP7 done
