I lost my **** at that giant Rillaboom, whatever the hell that thing was. so many drums. Put that big monkey in Smash.

Also Spikey Mikey you gotta learn when to just stop posting my dude you sure use a lot of words to say a whole lot of nothing.

Sorry, double posted by mistake

If you don't have anything to add to the discussion, you can just not say anything.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

But yes Cutie Gwen I admit I am at this point impatient but it isn't just because I want to know who FP5 is at this point but its also because everyone else including myself have nothing else to discuss about it and want to get to post-Pass DLC.

It's really just a light at the end of the tunnel thing. We're not gonna have anything to talk about about the post-Pass DLC either unless there's a new leak.

The same could be said for Arle and KOS-MOS.

>”Male Bias”

We have Kazooie.

Please don't poke her like that. It never ends well.

Yes, one half of a character whose name is almost never brought up unless this argument in play

 

[Garteam]

I mean, this is the first time they've offered the "third version" as DLC and together it seems to cost $90 whereas say Sun and Ultra Sun would have cost $80, so it's not a massive increase. I mean, what price did you really expect with two seemingly major expansions that seem to be taking their major cues from the Wild Area and adding a ton of Pokemon?

Seems like a great way to handle things to me, even if it's a little clear that Pokemon Sword and Shield got released a little too soon and they've been working on this content for a while...

Yeah, I was under the impression that Isle of Armor and the Crown Tundra would be $30 each. $15 actually seems very reasonable for a DLC of this size.

I'm cautiously optimistic, but I want to see a tiny bit more before I buy.

Please send $500 to my Paypal immediately. False equivalency tax.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Can't promise but I'm gonna continue trying to work on my patience. I apologize to everyone.

Ah ****, here we go again

If you're going to do this often I suggest giving yourself 10 seconds to think before hitting the post. I still get an alert saying I got quoted after all

FP5 is Spencer from Combofiend, his arm is his wife, take that women!

Its a bad habit I apologize. Another thing I'll work on trying to stop.

"We're proud to announce a collaboration with the Oscar Mayer Hot Dog Company to bring the 2009 version of Spencer to Smash."

His only attack is "BIONIC AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRMM!!!".

There's no punch. It's just the scream.

Finally, Karen representation in Smash

I’d argue that regularly bashing many most wanteds simply on the basis of their MW being male is even more inflammatory, but go off, I guess.

Spencer wants to talk to everyone’s manager, it’s canon

 

[Evil Trapezium]

Cut Pokemon returning is the best part about the direct but I still see no Salamence. Very disappointing! Maybe he is in the post pass of Smash DLC instead!

It’s not worth it. Since the mods sometimes don’t know how to mod and will go after you more likely in this case.

anyway, I’ll be posting here more often just cause it seems more fun here lol.

 

[Garteam]

The best part about the expansion is finally getting to see Dracovish and Landorus-T square up.

No matter who wins, we lose. Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.

Sorry, Salamence is cut for balancing reasons, have Lando T or Regigigas with Galar Koffing in doubles instead

 

[Guynamednelson]

but I never understood the meme.

The "we need a grass starter" one or "Baboom win"?

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

I'd want to see the manager to if I found out they stuck my wife in my arm.

 

[MrJudd]

I like to imagine the reason that it's taking so long to reveal FP5 is because the Goose stole the Smash invite from the character at the TGA and Sakurai is still trying to get it back from him.

This made my day. Thank you.

The second is that Paper Mario's proportions are way different; he has no legs, and his head is bigger than his arms, meaning that he can't use any kick attacks, and his punch attacks are barely going to reach beyond his hurtboxes.

Jigglypuff, Kirby and Olimar say hello.

 

[Guynamednelson]

The point is that Paper Mario can't be a full-on Mario clone, not that he can't be a fighter.

 

[Cosmic77]

Kinda glad they went with an expansion instead of a third version. Now I can immediately go to the new content without having to replay the game all over again.

But the obvious drawback of that is not having Calyrex's big-ass head on official boxart, so I think we all lose there.

Its promotional artwork is extremely unflattering though so I think Calyrex wins.

 

[Nemuresu]

You know, I originally expected to hear some kind of special Dynamax Raid for Toxtricity and a bunch of unavailable pokémon like Western Gastrodon. Not sure if I should expect the datamined pokémon (legendaries aside of course) anymore.

That said, Urshifu looks like a bear version of Akira Yuki.

 

[Evil Trapezium]

The "we need a grass starter" one or "Baboom win"?

I thought that the former context is the reasoning behind the latter joke. Because Baboom is the grass type we all need?

 

[Deleted member]

I can't help but feel if they just let development team work another year and release this in 2020 instead of 2019, all this would have been base game.

 

[Freduardo]

I want to make two pokemon fan games.

One takes place in the mushroom kingdom and you catch and evolve mario enemies.

One takes place in Hyrule and you catch and evolve zelda enemies.

I want to name them:
Pokemon: Cease
And
Pokemon: Desist

 

[Ridrool64]

If Paper Mario was a Mario echo that'd be the world's biggest Monkey's Paw in action, nothing more, nothing less. A low blow to everybody who wanted him.

Also it's a good thing I missed that Arle discussion, but yeah, it's extremely unlikely that Sakurai is hinting at her with those pics of the days. Not technically impossible, but it would go against what happened with Isaac and what happened with Skull Kid.

She's probably good to go for post-pass, but even ignoring Joker or Vergeben, I don't believe in pass 5 mostly because Hero appeals to Japan already and in general I can't find a reason to believe it isn't KOS-MOS that doesn't go against what Verge has to say.

 

[♕Pretty Roger♕]

There is no way they wouldn't have planned paid DLC anyway, that's like saying Smash Ultimate should have been released in 2020 to have every fighter's pass character in the base game, DLC would have continued regardless.

 

[Cosmic77]

Probably not. More Wild Areas and two completely new side quests are pretty big additions, and they're exactly the kind of things the development team would've added if they made a third version. We might've gotten a more polished main game, but I don't think they would've given us this much new content just for the heck of it.

This really isn't any different than what they've already been doing each Gen. The only difference is that they're giving it to us via DLC rather than making us buy another copy of the game.

 

[Guynamednelson]

It's also being directed by a different person, so if it was base game content it probably would be a whole lot different.

 

[Spongeboob]

I feel like this will end up being accurate.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Holy **** this aged poorly

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

This meme and joke has run its course.

Don't be mad because you got boofed into believing Baboom was going to be Fighter 5. You should believe in him anyways since Baboom win.

Baboom always win.
