Social NintenZone Social 2.0: Remember That Time Candle Jack Visited Swa

I
- Elise

We don't ever speak her name, she never happened. WE CLEAR!?

"not that either of those are rational or wanted"

"wolf"

Is she high?

She said THAT too!? That's it I'm eating Octopus tomorrow night.
Also she's claiming its Monita. No one pay any attention to her ever again.

 

[splat]

I didn't tell anyone.

And good on ya, man. The suspense is slowly killing me, gnawing at my already brittle hype bone - as it should be. Part of the fun of Smash discussion for me is not knowing what will come. Leaks are great on the short term, but getting suprised is so much better in the end.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

- 9 playable characters

I think that's what killed Sonic 06. You're trying to have a grand total of NINE playable characters who are different, that's already a programming nightmare

 

[Swamp Sensei]

So Monday is a possibility for the big day, hm?

Have we ever had announcements on a Sunday?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Pretty sure we haven't, not to mention the fact the Ballot didn't close until Monday after the deadline should go against the idea of a sunday announcement

Something happening on monday?


Also, people REALLY need to watch this.

We need to spread the word about this:

R.i.p Data miners.

 

[Frostwraith]

I'm not putting much stock in this, but there's a theory going on that 6 more characters could be added to both Wii U and 3DS and have a perfect rectangle and all that.

You know, Etika made a video about it with a click-bait title to boot. Same old stuff.

It got me thinking that, if we indeed get 6 more characters, that would mean a total of 10 DLC characters... It is a generous number, so to speak, but I could see it happen in one, and one only, condition: clones.

Yep, clone characters. Might include veterans like Pichu or Young Link or would-be newcomers like Dry Bowser, Blood Falcon, Dr. Luigi and other similar candidates to clone character additions. It's something that wouldn't be too farfetched and it's the kind of content that could be included in a patch for free similarly to the Miiverse and Duck Hunt stages on the Wii U and 3DS versions respectively.

Of course, this is just a thought I had. I don't believe we'll be getting that many characters. I only expect 3 or 4 more. That said, I wouldn't rule out the possibility that we may get more characters, even though some would be clones.

Watched Sterling's video on it, was just about to watch this and subsequently post it.
I'll reserve my whole judgment until I watch this video, but from what Jim is saying this is absolutely horrific.

 

[PushDustIn]

Any questions for the upcoming Source Cast? Nantendo, @Spazzy_D, @SmashChu, a special guest and myself will record the podcast. Our main focus will be on the community itself.

Reminds me of SOPA a few years back. Same old industry giants wanting more control over copyrights and all that same crap.

There are things that simply don't change.

Should this be implemented, yeah, RIP data mining and sites such as TCRF or Unseen 64.

It would also affect Source Gaming.

I kinda feel we will probably see a few more semi/pseudo clones as DLC. Assuming Sakurai decides to do another wave of three (or four if one counts Mewtwo) depending on the size of his team (since its smaller now compared to when they where working on the full game). He may have about enough time to produce two unique characters and one or two semi/pseudo clones in a span of about six to eight months.

At least based on the characters we received for June since from the looks of things. Lucas and Roy seemed to have been developed with the use of Ness and Marth as a base since they seem to share a few animations and structures as these characters (Lucas even has the exact same applause animation as Ness to the point he even blinks at the exact same time as Ness does).

Of course it may also depend if the character in question is a veteran or newcomer as well so I can see us getting another wave of three depending if we where to get more characters like Lucas and Roy. At least that's what I think....

 

[Frostwraith]

The part where it says that your devices can be confiscated is one of the most terrifying parts about it.

This is yet another attempt by the companies to try and control the media even more under the guise of "fighting piracy".

Yet, as a saying I know tells: "the forbidden fruit is the most wanted." If this does come to pass, it won't really fight piracy: it will do the exact opposite.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I hope they don't intend to actually enforce these laws.

Copyright or not. Destroying other person's property isn't right and will cause mass outcry.

 

[Frostwraith]

I knew I had read some news about this TPP thing before: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/new...su-warns-against-changing-japan-copyright-law

This will affect the anime and manga industry in Japan, especially for doujin (self-publishing) creators. Also bad for those who import titles from Japan.

(And by titles, I include video games.)

If the 3DS version is a sign of things to come, we're due at least 9 more DLC stages, so 6 more characters doesn't seem too outlandish, especially since we already have 3 placeholder spots ready for 3 of them.

The worst part is that its the governments of the Pacific Rim that are endorsing this as well >_>

And there's something similar happening between the US and Europe. Under a not-so-different name.

I mean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transatlantic_Trade_and_Investment_Partnership

We Europeans should also be mindful of this crap.

Where did you get that number?
I only know there's six slots for stages on 3DS, but half of those are Omega forms.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Worst part is, is that this was done in secret.

They knew people would hate this.

They did it anyways.

Was iffy on it before, but I'm definitely against it now. I like using Amazon.jp and using a forwarding service when needed. Heck while in College Amazon.jp was the only way I was able to buy a textbook for one of my classes.

If it weren't for Wikileaks, no one would've known.

So much for "freedom" and "democracy" when there's no transparency and no opportunity to let the people voice their opinions.

It's nothing more than greed and having too much power in their hands. Human nature at its finest.

 

[Shroob]

Look at how the DLC stages are laid out on the DLC screen on the 3DS. There's enough room for 9 more stages in their current size.

Considering we know that 3 more stages are coming, I doubt Sakurai will not use up all that space.

 

[Tom13]

The Presidential Candidates hate and oppose the TPP, I'm sure that it will be stopped as there's a lot of opposition from other parties.

This just makes the whole thing so much more ****ty.
They failed with SOPA because they were public about it ( I think).
They kept this a secret until it was too late for us to do anything. I just found out.

Human nature at its finest.

You're a human too.
Unless you're not. In which case, I'm sorry.

Trump, Clinton and Sanders all oppose it?

Proof?

I'd love this to be true.

Yep. That's pretty much it.

Though I do think SOPA was also somewhat secretive. Not sure, though.

(Also, I can't take the SOPA acronym seriously because, in Portuguese, the word means soup.)

You're a human too.
Unless you're not. In which case, I'm sorry.

I'm a human being, but I dislike humanity.

Call me a misanthrope if you will.

This said, I do believe we as a species have potential.

Seems contradictory, but if you think about it, it's not quite.

It sounds like soap in English. Fitting considering these bills serve to wash away peoples' freedoms.

...I guess.
I suppose it's ironic coming from an American that hates America...

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Yo. I'm doing research into this.

Seems we knew of it's existence since June.

I guess the problem was that we knew nothing about it.

...I guess.

That's the problem.

If we just hate a country for what it's become, the country will die and will never improve.

We need to love it so that we can change it for the better.

 

[Tom13]

There's also this petition, which originally had the goal of 25,000 signatures, but it's surpassed that, so it's 30,000 signatures needed now, so this needs to be passed around.:

Well at least the front-runners oppose it. LMAO Trump

I think the most I've ever been disgusted at my country was after watching this (ironically made by someone born in the UK).

By all means, all Americans reading this should watch this video.

 

[Burb]

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or correcting me because this is the internet and context is hard.

Just in case it's the latter, I already know this. I never believed her for a moment, I'm asking because I find it baffling that people still believe her (or ever did in the first place).

I was agreeing.

 

[MasterofMonster]

Should I have bought this 2DS NSMB2 edition for 999 Swedish Kronor? I need at least one 2DS in my cllection. I fear that was a good price, and I didn't buy it. D:

 

[gameonion]

What is this? NintenZone or PoliticalDiscussionZone?

I honestly can't tell the difference anymore.

Regarding NWPlayer: I kinda believe her. I don't know why. She lied in the past. But I somehow trust her. Welp.

 

[Frostwraith]

That's €106.77. It's a great deal for a console and a game in one package. Like, super cheap.

I got my New 3DS XL (without any games) for more than that.

Crap. I should totally have gotten it. Luckily, prices of those things aren't that high here now, and Nintendo isn't super popular in Sweden, so, it will most likely still be there the next time I go shopping. ^^ Thank you, Frosty.

Wish I got it now, though. I only got three different 3DS cases for ultra cheap (guess they didn't sell so I got them for multiple times cheaper than the original price). Always something to add to the collection.

And my 12 Inch Ganondorf Deluxe Statue DID fit on the Zelda shelf! Had literally a millimeter to spare! Huzzah!

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Looking at this TPP nonsense all I have to say is that time and time again it's proving that some people don't deserve to live

 

[Kenith]

That's the problem.

I absolutely won't do that.
I don't owe "my" country anything. It didn't let me born here, I just was. Politicians didn't raise me, my parents did, and all of this applies to them too.
The USA isn't a person. It's a geographical point, being controlled by people I have no love and even less respect for, in most cases. I don't love my country.
I'd love to see the US better itself, but until then I'll be over here itching for a better place to live.

Oh, and I'd really not like to continue this, as it it not healthy for the thread.

Looking at this TPP nonsense all I have to say is that time and time again it's proving that some people don't deserve to live

As much as I despise the people in charge, this really isn't a healthy mindset.
