Hm, not sure what to say to this.....
I still hate the inclusion of DHD. I genuinely threw up when the leaks were confirmed real
Why is that?
I don't play DH that much, but I find him a good retro, kind of sad that he sort of just faded into obscurity and isn't talked about or used often in the community. I've seen more wii fit trainer players then his!

Smash itself. The sheer stupidity of the negative reception, and the reasoning behind it, for the Brawl roster in spite of the elimination of Melee-style clones as well as the inclusion of tons of fan-favourites including Sonic prtty much shows how lame the Smash fanbase can be. Especially considering the petty and stupid reasoning behind the hate.

It's funny with the fanbase sometimes. It's like we hate when certain newcomers get in we hate Sakurai and want them cut, but when they do get cut we hate Sakurai and want them back.

It's like he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

It's fake.
I knew that :p
I didn't know that
Also, I'm probably going to die tomorrow. It was nice knowing you all. I don't want to go back to the quack who drilled in my cheek T-T

Because of what he did in Duck Hunt mentally scarred gamers for life. Sakurai didn't even get the original 8bit laugh

I honestly don't really care about DH.

I specifically dislike him pre Smash 4, but despite being impressed that Sakurai made a dog work as a fighter, I still don't care about the dog.

To be fair, there wasn't really much of a notable backlash when Pichu, Doctor Mario and Young Link got cut.

Some people take fictional works far too seriously for their own sanity. A pity.

This has meme potential.
I was about to say "pretty much everything on the Internet has meme potential", but then I saw the picture.

Nintendo of America more like Nintendo of Memes (or Memetendo). :p

(I'm aware it's fake, by the way.)

A meme about why memes are in NA Nintendo games.
Memeception. :awesome::chuckle:

Pretty sure the so-called "8-bit laugh" is actually just a "you lost" jingle. (Said jingle is actually present in the Duck Hunt stage when ducks fly away and it's part of the Duck Hunt Medley as well.)

It doesn't even sound like a laugh, especially when the dog makes barking sounds in the original game.

It took me a good minute before I realized the joke here.

I remember wanting to make him a main for me when the game came out. I used him for a bit, but then I just moved on to other characters. I pick him up from time to time for fun, but I feel bad not playing him anymore. I will agree though, not that many talk about him to be honest. I'd say him and Bowser Jr. are the characters that people just seem to forget are even in the game, which is weird.

The dog would move like Dudley did in Wacky Racing. It's laughing at you

Yeah, even the Smash fanbase isn't perfect (certainly not).

Especially during the ballot, I found a number of people who took it a little too far or even treated it like it was war..... At least I personally didn't really find the pre-ballot speculation as pleasant as the pre-game speculation....

Speaking of unpleasant fanbases, I revisited an old Zelda fansite recently but after looking around and seeing a few melodramatic fans, I kinda remembered why I more or less left that site in the first place.... ^^;

But overall, I think every fanbase has its bad eggs. ^^

Can we have a Waluigi game featuring the Duck Hunt Dog to reference **** Dastardly and Muttley?
Or at least have a Mario Kart game bring back the Two racers mechanic from Double-Dash and add Duck Hunt Dog.

I just realized the block button has been removed
Is it only from the profile preview or has it been removed entirely? If so, why?

I haven't watched Wacky Races in years. Regardless, I still feel ashamed of myself

The Ignore button's still there

Now we need to ban games and the Walking Dead because some people said that made them kill people and not ban weaponry

I actually liked the ballot period better and I think it's existance is the best thing to happen to DLC Speculation.

Alright, he definitely was mad impressively, so that I can agree with. As I said, I like DH, but don't play him often.

I've seen a lot of koopaings, and iggy is my 3rd main, but yeah, DH, hasn't gotten much love. I think he needs some buffs and have him kill easier. His smash attacks are so easy to avoid but are the most efficient way of getting K.O.s

I liked the ballot itself. Although I don't know, I think I kinda felt character support was a little more free during the pre game period.

I think it may depend on which character you supported I suppose....

Pacman's ghosts don't get a credit either ya know.
That's implying the ghosts are a part of the "Pac Man" character and the Gunman isn't a part of the "Duck Hunt" character
Besides, Japan calls it Duck Hunt so I guess we know who is wrong :p

Remember when people kept referring Duck Hunt as "Duck Hunt Dog," ignoring the poor duck because the dog matters more.

Speculation has always made this community look bad (not to say the competitive community does any better. . .) but the ballot was probably the worst i've ever seen it. Scratch that. ESRB leak confirmed and 50 facts extravaaganza was the worst. Was told to kill myself both times.

But the ballot was still worse than pre release. It was war. And not the good kind.

When Europe is the only place that calls it a duo when the other places cite it as a trio, it means Europe done goofed.

There was never such a thing called "block".

You're probably thinking of the Ignore button, which is still a thing.

As for the friend list, it was in fact removed due to performance issues.

What did Block do that Ignore didn't then?
I never used it but I'm pretty sure it works both ways
So the person can't see you or your posts
This can be useful for some reasons
Ignore is for somene that annoys you but block probably means the other user is the problem
Not like I need it right now but you never know when it might be useful

Like the friend button
For when people that don't follow you back
Goddamnit guys, following is like a friend request and following back is how you say yes
There was never such a thing called "block".

Your mod tricks won't work on me
I remember always seeing a block button near the ignore one
I even found it odd when I clicked on a user and there was less space being used

Duck Hunt Duo is a much better and more accurate name than just Duck Hunt. Europe reigns supreme again.
But it's not more accurate because it's a Duck Hunt Trio. Dog, Duck and person using the Zapper. Also they have the Wild Gunmen in there as well. Duck Hunt is overall more accurate because it's the entire game rolled into one character.

I never did get the point of the ignore button. I mean, if I don't like a post I either call it out or ignore it. To me, it's equivalent of sticking my fingers in my ears. It's not like anything happens nor do I change. People say stupid things at times; sometimes more than once. It happens.

Nah, the character is a Duo from Duck Hunt, everyone else are pretty much summons and not constantly in the battle like Dog & Duck, who are the main stars.

Plus Duck Hunt sounds dumb as a character name.
