Congratulations, Min Min! ARMS character(s) for Smash discussion

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

The latter case would certainly get a groan out of ME.

Likewise here, honestly, but to each their own.

That's how I feel as well, but im just happy that we're getting a character

Think about it being BIFF.

 

[NOSTARSICK]

Think about it being BIFF.

Id still be happy lol

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

As funny as that would be, I admit that the chances that he gets picked are infinitesimal.

 

[Mariomaniac45213]

I won't say which of the few ARMS I don't want in Smash, 'cause every character is someone's favorite.

Wait a minute...even Misango!? If someone in this thread's favorite character is Misango, I politely ask you to reveal yourself.

Maybe they don't even have an account here?

Hi! I'm here.

So all that talk about magic muscles were lies? :'V

Hmm, no, he's my top first. Missago's my 2nd favorite.

ANY HOPES ABOUT THEIR STAGES.

ANY HOPES ABOUT THEIR STAGES.

I'm betting that no matter who we get, we'll have Sky Arena.

 

[Nap_]

Sky Arena is epic, but I don't care too much about the stage, any of them will be ok. But, please, not the Ramen Bowl with that shape.
I'm interested in how they will manage the crowd, how the fans will look. Will they cheer every fighter in the stage, just the ARMS rep, just generic Smash fans with the logo?

 

[Mariomaniac45213]

I actually really like ARMS Lab as the smash stage. But then again I want it cause it involves more of the lore and my most wanted is Dr. Coyle soo...

 

[Swamp Sensei]

ANY HOPES ABOUT THEIR STAGES.

If I could have any ARMS stage?

NAME REDACTED

 

[Glaciacott]

To properly rep Arms, Sky Arena

if I wanted the stage to be as nuts as possible, I'd like either Ribbon Ring or mausoleum. Technically Snake Park would be the most nuts but it would wind up just being impractical.

 

[MattX20]

The stage could be a travelling one to encompass more than just Sky Arena

 

[Glaciacott]

I honestly would love less moving stages. Particularly since when playing over and over I'll either never see the other parts of the stage because I'm playing no hazards or I'm playing casual with stage morph and they just never happen. I don't think I've ever seen the Garreg Mach stage go through a full cycle.

I'm also still sore about there being an excellent Paper Mario TTYD stage stuck as part of a terrible stage and condemned never to be played.

 

[IronWarrior94]

Never played ARMS but I'm interested in seeing who the rep will be. Based on appearance alone nearly all of the characters look cool and I would be down for any of them. If there's one I'm really hoping for though, it's Dr. Coyle for that female+villain combo.

 

[Sari]

The RTC thread is on day 4 of its ARMS ratings.

https://smashboards.com/threads/rat...-brian-quest-64.453357/page-635#post-23951520

This time we're rating Helix, Max Brass, Misango, and the idea of the ARMS rep having separate character(s) as alts. Make sure to follow all the rules when doing your ratings (specifically having 2 sentences for both chance and want).

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

And now for something completely different.

Seems to me like we could hear about stuff next month.

 

[MattX20]

This weekend is all that's left, and then the final countdown for the ARMS fighter begins

Or they could wait until November. Who knows with Nintendo? :^)

Didn't stop that Paper Mario announcement from happening. There's a reason why Jeff Grubb has no idea where to put them on his Summer schedule.

Anything could happen with Nintendo.

Some announcements could happen earlier than planned, some later and announcements could even be cancelled and they just shadowdrop the game instead.

They're completely unpredictable and that's honestly not a great thing to have at a time where everyone else is being very upfront about what they do.

I don't mind it, since most of the news that are upfront right now (at least according to Summer Game Fest among others)...don't feel very impressive to me. The more interesting ones are ironically looking to be those that are either unannounced (e.g. Activision's next major console Crash game (which barely got any leaks at all), any games in relation to PS5) or the general nebulousness of New Game+ Expo with its third-party collabs.

Best to be excited for something that came right out of nowhere, than anticipating the buildup for something that either never comes or is not that exciting (much like when folks watch regular Directs).

I want to be pleasantly surprised, and Geoff Keighley isn't giving much to work with on that. Tony Hawk coming back is interesting, but that was leaked to hell and back anyway.

I honestly prefer an attempt at mixing both stuff that's built up and having surprises.

Other companies are doing a decent job at this, telling us some stuff to look forward to and then give us a few surprises.

But now that we probably won't get a June Direct to look forward to, Nintendo is nothing but surprises. Even the lamer announcement that wouldn't bring too much hype would likely be treated the same way as "SURPRISE! NEW PAPER MARIO GAME THAT'S CLOSER TO WHAT FANS WANTED FOR YEARS!"

And that's not something that I think is as good as it sounds. It's nice to be informed that we should expect a few things and have a few really good and unexpected surprises in between the predictable rather than have every single announcement be shadowdropped.

Or maybe I'm just a weird guy who doesn't like surprises and fun? That could be it too

 

[NOSTARSICK]

I honestly enjoy the no potential directs, i like the random surprise drops

Oh look, yet another not-E3.

I don't know about you lot, but there's no way I'll keep up with all of them. Although this one gets points for starting the minute that June does, I guess.

It's a good thing I'm only really interested in Nintendo, indie and Valve games. Nintendo will drop whenever, sort games by popular new to find an interesting indie and Vavle releases things never.

Well, now it'll always be there even if it's deleted

Yeah, only profile posts can be easily deleted. This is why one has to plan before posting.

In my case, I usually PM another user to post something in my stead, if there are dangers of double-posting.

 

[Perkilator]

While the concept of ARMS alts. is being rated in RTC, can I reiterate how much I LOATHE the idea? Here's how I put it in RTC.

"This wouldn't do the character justice at all. Along with very few having similar body shapes, literally every character (even Springtron) has something to differentiate them (Sping Man's low-health boost, Min Min's party kicks, Helix's aforementioned stretching, etc.). Take that away from them, and people who never played ARMS (who most likely came up with this concept to begin with) wouldn't even know they existed."

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

"BuT yOu CaN gIvE aNy ArMs To AnYoNe WiTh ThAt OnE mOdE"

Joker can also use any Persona in the game, but he only uses the one that's actually an extension of himself rather than one he just catches, emphasizing that this is a moveset for Joker specifically, not just a generic Persona moveset. No Jack Frost to be seen here.

...

I'm now tempted to say that in the RTC thread.

 

[Hinata]

People who draw the comparison to Bowser Jr. and Hero when discussing ARMS alts really don't understand how ARMS characters work.

To quote my own RTC post:

"The Koopalings just gotta sit there and look pretty in their Clown Cars, and every Dragon Quest hero is capable of swinging a sword and using magic. But each ARMS character has their own unique ability that we'd likely miss out on if they were all skins for each other. The ARMS themselves wouldn't be a problem, considering every character can wield every glove in the game given enough time, but I wouldn't want to miss out on Min Min's dragon arm and flip kick, or Ribbon Girl's multiple jumps, just for the sake of having more than one character in the game."
