Geno (♥♪!?): Return of the Starsend Savior

[MissingGlitch]

Ah. The plot thickens.

But basically, people call Yoda's race just "Yoda" because there is no canon name for Yoda's race yet.

Fun fact, back when George Lucas owned Star Wars, there was a hard rule that expanded universe stuff absolutely could not detail Yoda’s species. Like, Yoda’s species has no known name or home planet and the number of them that have appeared across the entire franchise can be counted on one hand last time I checked. I’m wondering if the Mandalorian will stick to that or if there actually will be some details given.

I actually knew this! Disney will likely desecrate such a rule because they have toys to sell and a new theme park attraction to open. Be the first in line at the opening of [Yoda's Homeworld] Land only at Epcot Center Summer 2020.

All I know is that Nintendo better open up Star Road at Super Nintendo World.

There's a lot of stupid crap with Star Wars way before Disney owned it. Such as how as actors were told they had to wield the lightsabers like there really heavy swords despite the fact they shouldn't have any real matter to them.

George couldn't even follow his own rules for the universe on a regular basis, so I don't think Disney deserves the hate for not following rules either.

Plus, isn't the person who is in charge of the Mandalorian kinda like a successor to George Lucas(Like, he was taught by him or something)? IF there is anyone who would be allowed to do something like that, it would be him, right?

Nintendo and Square Enix announce a Forest Maze area for Universal Studios's Nintendo Land to correspond to the sequel of the illumination produced Super Mario Brothers movie. Super Mario Brothers: The Return of Geno.

Featuring an exclusive Geno meet and greet.

There's a lot to be said for the dramatic effect that comes with acting like you're really hefting something. But, I mean, according to Star Wars, there's tons of noise and bright explosions in space, and you can open bomb hatches that are oddly connected to what should be pressurized areas with no depressurization at all. For all we know, light weighs an awful lot in the Star Wars canon.

You know, wasn't there a rumor a while back that the movie going to be based off the Super Mario Adventures comic? I would not be shocked if that was false, but it would be a great source to take from for an adaptation, especially with all the character it has.

How DO we all hear the TIE Fighters anyway? And why do characters in the universe know the Imperial March?

Edit: on the topic of lightsaber “weight”, it also adds a fair amount of characterization to different people’s fighting styles. Obi-wan swings it like a katana because he’s a master swordsman while Kylo Ren swings it’s like a massive broadsword because he’s a slobbering rage monster.

I remember being worried as a 6 year old playing this Disney game on Genesis, hoping Disney would not buy out Sega!
(Side note: This game was actually really good if I recall!)

They were heavy for a time during the first few movies, but you see people just picking them up lightsabers like nothing they're nothing, mostly because they are nothing. It's light, light shouldn't have any weight, so future Star Wars material took that into consideration so that people aren't wielding them like heavy swords. There's just a lot of dumb stuff in Star Wars that doesn't remain consistent. It's cool and dumb all at the same time.

[SSGuy]

I still don't want Disney associated with Nintendo.
They ruined Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite's roster, I don't want them near Smash Bros.

A fun fact about Disney and MvCI is that they specifically requested Capcom to model the Capcom characters to appear uglier than the Marvel ones. That is why Chun Li, Dante, Spencer and others from Capcom had issues while the Disney ones looked significantly better.

I guess the easiest thing to do is find out if that is actually Cortana’s VA. Or what ever virtual assistant chief has now. It’s been a long time since I’ve played a halo game.

Imagine being so power trippy that you go up to the other side of a respected crossover and say "model your characters worse than ours"

I don't recall that being a thing. Wasn't it just a result of a lot of the models being ported over from MvC3, with the mMrvel ones looking better because they were just naturally updated to be more like the movie versions?

Gotta say I am so thankful for this speculation going on. Its keeping me occupied while I wait for Halo Reach for PC to install later today.View attachment 249613
(On a side note what's everybody's thought on Master Chief getting in as DLC now
that Banjo made it?)

Chief has wiggled his way into my top 3 most wanteds, and I’ve been replaying the Halo games recently and I’m having a blast. I think he a decent chance, especially since Steve was put out as leak bait.

Master Chief is essentially what the instruction manual for the first Metroid described Samus as. I recognize him as having a unique moveset and will never discredit him for that, but in general, I view Halo as a multiplayer equipped Metroid competitor. It wouldn't be smart advertising nor would it go well with fans for Metroid Prime 4 to be in this odd development period and then Master Chief show up in Super Smash Bros.

As for "doing the impossible", I guess they've proven that it isn't entirely impossible, but really... Let's not let the fact that Banjo is in cloud our opinion that such a thing is anything short of a miracle. This time last year Banjo was another Grinch Leak casualty and only really specific people had any faith in him. The biggest hindrance against him, what made it so unlikely, was that Microsoft owns Rare. Even if the bridge has been crossed doesn't mean it'll be any easier to cross it again, and for one of Microsoft's flagship characters rather than a cartoony platform character that went unused for a decade? The odds are infinitely smaller.

I fail to understand your argument here. Halo and Metroid are wildly different series, with different gameplay and demographics. Chief and Samus have very little in common. If you think he ripped off Samus then Doomguy must’ve as well. If anything Metroid ripped off Halo with Prime (and no it didnt).

As for the Nintendo connection, that’s a dead argument, even moreso than spirits. Time and time again characters show that it makes little impact. And if he really has to have a connection, MCC for Switch was leaked by various sources awhile ago, including Sabi. (Plus the minecraft content works as a technicallity)

And I doubt it’d be too difficult to get him. Nintendo and Microsoft are on very good terms, evidenced by multiple ports, Banjo in smash, and more rumored ports. In an article Sakurai said it was incredibly easy to negotiate for Banjo. While it may be harder for Chief since he is the Xbox poster child, the potential profit and publicity would be insane to pass up, and I’m sure Banjo made a ton of money

One of my favorites and it’s on the Sega Genesis Mini too and so is World of Illusion where Donald Duck is playable.

Cortana seems to have had the same voice actor for the last few games and I don't think that really sounds like her, based on the cutscenes I just spent a little while watching.

 

[RetrogamerMax]

I think one of the four will happen.

>Single reveal: Nightmare and Nintendo hardcore teases DLC news coming soon
>Duel reveal: Nightmare/Lloyd
>Duel reveal: Nightmare/Ryu
>Triple reveal: Nightmare/do two reveals for post pass.

Any of those timelines is the best timeline to me.

No, that wasn't the case. What happen was that they took the models from Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 and plop them into Marvel vs Capcom Infinite engine so they didn't turn out right, which is why new characters like Jedah look fantastic. The game had a cheap budget, so they had to reuse a lot of material.

I think the idea is that this was a recording of a test screening they uploaded anonymously. You can tell it has a “phone recording speakers” effect to it.

Definitely fake. Way too on the nose with how it reveals that it's Smash related, usually there's a good deal of build-up before the connection is made. Think back to Snake's reveal for Brawl, or even more recently with Banjo.

A bunch of the missing Mii costumes are armored swordsmen

Hey I mean technically, Master Chief is an armored swordsman

To be fair with Banjo’s, it had a smash slideshow before the trailer played. That’s as on the nose as you can get.

It took like what, 10 seconds before the jiggy bounced across the screen? The surprise was ruined right then and there. Banjo should have knocked like a proper gentleman, at least the illusion that Dixie was coming would have been kept longer.

That didn't happen, there were plenty of Marvel characters that were modeled just as bad and the newer characters (both Capcom & Marvel) were given more time to look better. Just look at Jedah, his model looks great.

If you really want buildup just look at Joker's trailer from last year. Nobody knew that was a Smash Bros trailer at all, it was the perfect buildup.

I still don't get why they made Anita from Darkstalkers a playable character instead of Thor back in Marvel Super Heroes. jeez they waited until Marvel Vs Capcom 3 to finally give him a spot on the roster

Firstly, this kind of suspense-building thing goes both ways: You can know it's a Smash reveal and not know who it is (Ex. Banjo), or you know who it is but not that it's a Smash reveal (Ex. Joker).
Second, Banjo's was still a rather subtle tease up until the big reveal, certainly much more subtle than Cortana going "Chief, we were invited to a fighting tournament by some guy named Mario?", which I wouldn't believe Sakurai and team would do.
