Heir to the Monado. Shulk General Discussion/Social Thread

[T.R "River"]

I approve of celebration GIFs. Especially the Shulk ones

felt like this deserves the full size.

 

[FiXalaS]

isn't shulk so strong though? he can swiftly change modes.

 

[Spazzy_D]

Celebratory avatar change!

 

[Metal Face]

Well. Looks like Monado Boy really did get in before me.
But this isn't the end of me. Not like this. I'll be seeing you all on the field of battle.

 

[Ragna22]

I'm a little late but I can finally buy Xenoblade now ;-;

Yeah I was thinking the same, I'd rather wait for the 3DS version and pay $40 than pay $50 or so on a used Wii copy.

 

[Spazzy_D]

Wait.... Xenoblade is an exclusive 'New' 3DS game...

Wat

I guess Nintendo doesn't want the game to ever sell well?

 

[Yoshi Kirishima]

Yeah, I get what you mean, but this trailer hyped me up a lot since it's concrete evidence that the other characters are in (other than the Challenges) and hints that the Koopalings are going to be alts. Also, Shulk looked great.

Guess so :D I didn't enjoy it that much but it is cool!

Sorta sad there's no REYN TIME anywhere, oh well. Riki and Dunban are cool too and he couldn't put in that many characters into his FS i guess.

 

[Muster]

what was that at the end of the trailer?

Metal face's shadow on the gaur plains stage. Stage boss for sure

 

[Captain Fun]

So Shulk looks sick. I now have to play Xenoblade and I'm happy for everyone who wanted him.

That is all.

 

[MechaWave]

I might have to consider a main change for one reason

 

[ProjectAngel]

what was that at the end of the trailer?

Possibly Gaur Plains' stage boss, Metal Face.

 

[Ryan.]

Congratulations Shulk supporters! His render looks great and the stage is amazing. I can't wait to try him out.

Holy ****, this one can type

This......is this real?

 

[DraginHikari]

THIS NEEDS TO BE ANSWERED ASAP!!!
...
Anyways guys, congrats on your character making the "LEGIT" cut. ^^ He looks so hype!!

It's Metal Face, a major enemy from the game.

 

[Solfiner]

This......is this real?

Yup. And it's amazing.

 

[Spazzy_D]

just decided to pop back in for once to say, uh, yay for Shulk?
...Ok. To be honest... I wasn't nearly as hyped as I wanted to be. Maybe it was the inevitability that ruined it for me, but something about it feels off. Like... what's up with the kanji floating behind him? Why the **** does Monado "jump" and Monado "smash" exist? Not only do they sound hilariously bad, but they don't exist. Cyclone, Eater or Purge could've all easily taken their places. Monado Buster doesn't even look like Monado Buster. And they butchered his personality too.
Quite frankly the supporting cast (with mysterious absence from Reyn) were the best part of it. Riki is cute as ever, Dunban is... short-lived and Metal Face is Metal Face as always. Menacing and awesome. Gaur plains is also beautiful (though #Banned) and swimsuit Shulk is cool too...
I just feel like this all could have been handled better, you know? I'm honestly kind of disappointed with how this has all turned out...

After reading the description of the Monado Buffs on Miiverse, I feel like Buster should have been Enchant, Smash should have been Buster, and jump shouldn't exist.

 

[ThatLunaticFeline]

I'm confused about that too... hope it doesn't mean I have to buy a new 3DS with Xenoblade preloaded in it.

I'm afraid you will. New 3DS is a new model, that has better hardware. Xenoblade won't work on older model 3DSs.

 

[DarkChaosGames]

He better be an AT. One does not simply overlook Reyn.

 

[Hokori]

The background character of my posts...DO YOU SEE HIM?!

 

[Berserker.]

Yup. And it's amazing.

I see you've changed your avatar to Dunban HD

 

[ミスティック Speed]

It's Metal Face, a major enemy from the game.

Well. Looks like you guys might be getting a boss. o.o

 

[dezeray112]

Finally, glad to see the wielder of the Monado entering the Smash Arena!

 

[Solfiner]

I see you've changed your avatar to Dunban HD

Couldn't resist. Never thought I'd see a chain attack FS... It's too good to be true.

From what I heard, that's all true. It's more powerful than the 3DS....

Hm.....

I was so hype for Shulk's trailer that I literally stopped watching the rest of the Direct.

Cue an hour later, I go back to see the rest to find out there's two versions of a "new 3DS", Xenoblade is being re-released on it as an exclusive, and now I feel terrible that I just recently upgraded to an XL.

 

[Ynikoma]

Monolithsoft is now in the credits !!

I just bought a 3DS XL last year. Wtf Nintendo....

Although Shulk is in and that's awesome :D

 

[DraginHikari]

Premium character display and signature updated, all is good in the world.

 

[Arcadenik]

Damn. Guess I now have an excuse to buy a "new" 3DS XL... good thing I waited.

 

[ChibiIceClimberz]

I'm so late, but I can't contain the hype! *o*

Dat Xenoblade 3DS tho. As much as I want to buy New 3DS, I feel like it's better playing it on the big screen.

 

[Reila]

Which is a big slap on the face of the what, 40 millions of people who bought 3DS and 3DS XL? I was excited to play Xenoblade on the 3DS but Nintendo already managed to kill my hype.

I agree also, but the thought of having a game of its magnitude in portable form sounds amazing.

but im still pissed

 

[ChibiIceClimberz]

Yep, I can't argue with that.

I tried playing it on my Wii U GamePad, though, and it's a little hard to see, but I guess that's my problem. XD

I'm not ashamed to say i'm buying one of those 3DS' just for Xenoblade.

 

[Berserker.]

Well, at least I'm not alone with my disappointment regarding Xenoblade 3D

 

[Spazzy_D]

Couldn't resist. Never thought I'd see a chain attack FS... It's too good to be true.

I was REALLY worried we would get buster as a FS for a while.

I'm not ashamed to say i'm buying one of those 3DS' just for Xenoblade.

Some people have been saying that that 3DS is Japan only. Hey, can we get Ice Climbers as an exclusive on the new 3DS?

 

[Reila]

I'm not ashamed to say i'm buying one of those 3DS' just for Xenoblade.

I don't really have the money to spend on a new 3DS. I bought a XL two months ago.

 

[Crap-Zapper]

I'm so happy that Shulk got in. Never been "The" supporter for him, but it confirms the leak 150% in my eyes now. Not that I ever doubted his inclusion, that I sorta knew would happen. But this was a really good day. Congratulations Shulkers!
