the mushroom were never a pikmin type, it was a status effect caused by the mushroom boss, it caused them to follow the boss, and attack non infected pikmin killing both of them (unless it was a red then they would win)
Byleth presentation exists so I can't go any lower in disappointment.
careful what you say, we might get another FE character this pass who is another clone of marth.
in terms of fire emblem the possible characters are lyn -fan favorite katana/bow (assist trophy), hector axe lord- fan favorite, Claude bow lord- three houses, Demetri spear lord- three houses, and edelgaurd axe lord-three houses, in terms of upcoming games it is too soon for a new one, a remake should be next so far ikes games and roy/lyns games are rumored to be the next remade
My turn of dissapointment. Things more dissapointing than Geno not beign in Smash:
Literally makes my mouth foam in rage if we get another Fe character.
Too relatable. Too much. :'(
Thank you!

is cool to see more people thinking that the Star Warrior should/will descend from the Star Road again
Welcome
What was so bad about Seasons 2 & 3?
Welcome to the thread! Here, have a Geno hat!
Welcome!
Seconded on the Switch port of Battle for Bikini Bottom. Using the "A" button to jump is a pain in the arse!
I think that might actually be a bug. When I launched the game via the executable the controls were mapped fine. B was jump, Y was the Bubble Wand, etc. Maybe you should try that.
The Popeye film is back in production, actually.

What is today but yesterday's tomorrow?
I never said you were delusional, but you do seem to argue just for the sake of arguing.
..I just tried to think of an Imitation Krabs reference, but nothing made sense when I tried to twist it to fit Geno. Squidward is Sakurai putting off adding Geno to the game?
Well, dang. I’m over here wishing DreamWorks get back to productions on the movie Me and My Shadow and Larrikins.The Popeye film is back in production, actually.

today it is tomorrow's yesterday
And the next day of two days ago.
Thank you! I'll wear it with pride!
Well it's actually less of a theory for Geno and more of an overall theory regarding the Fighter Pass choices.
Fatmanonice
predictions from a little while back, and this of course includes Geno: to appeal to one of the last long running character demands like Banjo was.
I don't really think the theory holds up fully though, even if it does make sense logically. If the intent of the DLC is to appeal to other demographics that weren't already appealed too, then a lot of the choices in FP 1 have a ton of faults regarding them.Thank you! I'll wear it with pride!
Well it's actually less of a theory for Geno and more of an overall theory regarding the Fighter Pass choices.
You see I'm a bit of a hyper analyst, so I'm always trying to analyze the logic and reasoning behind certain decisions be they personal or business related (It's not hard to imagine that I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Nintendo in this aspect). I don't need to tell you all how Nintendo kind of work within a bubble, however that doesn't seem to be the case when it comes to the Fighter Pass choices. I always find myself coming back to Nintendo being the ones choosing the characters, of course we know at that Sakurai does have more control over whether they can work or not and which character from a specific game (like with Min Min).
It was a little after Min Min came out and I decided to take a step back and look at everything we've gotten so far that a thought occurred to me: Nintendo ACTIVELY chose these characters. Nintendo CHOSE Joker. Nintendo CHOSE Hero. Nintendo CHOSE Banjo. Nintendo CHOSE Terry. These are characters that when we look at the grand scheme of things, probably wouldn't entice casual Smash players or complete newcomers to the series as much as others. If they were trying to sell the Fighter Pass to as many people as possible, why go with some of these options? As happy as I was to get Banjo, he's sadly a largely irrelevant character nowadays that would really only appeal to the smash veterans who have wanted him since Melee. Why go through the effort for what might be very little return?
Then I had a theory, about the true purpose of the Fighter Pass and the logic Nintendo is using for character choices: demographics. They're not simply trying to entice players who already have the game to get the Fighter Pass, they're trying to use the Fighter Pass to appeal to specific or niche audiences to get the whole package. When you think about it, Ultimate really didn't need to do much to sell itself. It had already become a money printer for Nintendo at this point and it alone was going to sell Switch units. All Ultimate had to do to sell itself to us was say "Everyone is Here" plus more. Nintendo absolutely knew this, just like they absolutely know the demand for characters like Banjo (and in that regard Geno) and the core package already has so much that can appeal to just about everybody, the Fighter Pass is essentially cleanup.
This is where we come to the Fighter Pass characters and the demographics they appeal to:
Joker- Appeals to a very particular yet very dedicated JRPG fandom that while not as big as others, are VERY vocal about their love for a relatively niche series (not meant as any kind of disrespect, I myself have been a Persona fan since 3).
Hero- Appeals to a more old school, JRPG demographic mostly in Japan plus promotion for the Switch port of DQ11.
Banjo- Appeals to the longstanding Smash players that have actively wanted him since Melee and have been around for the era of the N64.
Terry- Appeals to the more dedicated arcade fighting game community as well as South American/Latino groups.
Byleth- Appeals to the same dedicated Fire Emblem fans who were upset at Chrom not getting into WiiU/3DS as well as cross promotion with that game.
Min Min-... uh... Arms stans? In all seriousness I think it's to appeal to the casual gamers that invested in the Switch early on and possibly to have a character represent their newest console generation.
It's with this theory in mind that it seems possible that the rest of the FP characters will appeal to other demographics that aren't as catered to in the base game. In fact if this crackpot theory of mine holds true, then it actually lines up a lot with
Other possible examples:
Crash- Appeals to old-school Playstation fans who were likely around during those console wars.
Master Chief/Doom Slayer- Appeals to FPS fans.
Man that was a lot, sorry if it's long-winded and rambly but I wanted to get it all out there. It's probably like how a described it, a crackpot theory, but I thought it was an interesting way to view what characters we could possibly see in the future.
in that case i am hoping smash ultimate modding community evolve like brawl
Ahem,
I am...protective of him.
For ones, this is something we can both agree on. I can´t see them for the life of me "rebooting" the franchise...Even if they added Isaac, Skull Kid, and Bandana Waddle Dee... who would be interested in a game that has half, or dares I say a third of the content of what Ultimate has? I know that I wouldn´t be interested and I doubt majority of the casuals (which is the biggest marketing) would be too. Looks at the game and say... Why should I buy this when I have Ultimate?" I can´t see the series continue in any form than ports. Nintendo shot themself in the foot with this game, no matter if you love it or not, with Sakurai most likely gone all out with this since it was the last request he got from Iwata.
I don't know what it is, but seeing that spring makes me happy and nostalgic. I miss when Mario didn't have a clear identity yet and it hadn't become the sterile on brand IP that it is today. You could get away with having quirky characters that definitely fit the universe, and then toss crap like the face from the Koopa Klown Kar onto anything and it was clear that it was tied to Bowser with nothing more than that subtle smile Sigh Take me back, bros. I want to go back.
Yeah, I remember that. I just think it would be cool to have it be this random thing that might happen. It never came back after that game unfortunately.
This game’s sold 20 million copies. It’s not the last game lmao
Launched the software via the executable? What do you mean? I might be missing something, but I'm pretty sure there's only one way to launch the software.
The image is from SMRPG game itself. Though what the box contains, I'll leave it up to you on finding out.
