Man, I really hate the word "Overrated" especially when it's used in lieu of "Game I don't like."
What's really odd is when people use the term on games and characters that are divisive and generally trashed by a lot of people.

At that point I get kind of baffled.

With the Switch's rumored launch lineup i'm almost tempted to buy a PS4 (regular version) over the Switch.

Hardly anything about Nintendo is impressive nowadays IMO.
I'm kind of the opposite. I can't bring myself to follow Sony news because I haven't seen any real eye catchers out of the corner of my eye, meanwhile the Switch's rumored year one launch lineup looks like it's going to try to destroy my pockets.

Launch itself maybe not so much, but that bundle rumor is definitely gonna be something for me. I guess liking squids is the difference.

Woomy.

. . .Maybe a lot of the games aren't outright impressive since most of it seems like stuff that's just going to be updated nicely, but BotW at least impressed me enough to get me to actually pay attention to Zelda enough to be about ready to throw the contents of my wallet at it. It could be my actually sitting down and watching it, but most of the features that impress me seem to be completely new to the series, so I'm leaning towards BotW itself being the magic.

Marvel VS. Capcom 4 looks awesome.

Another reason to pick up a PS4. (R.I.P the Nintendo Switch dream).

Start making guesses.

Going to guess the first unknown is Q (thank you), the Sagat, Hakan, ?, and Young Blanka.

I find it hilarious that, admist all the no X-Men rumors, the first character they show for MvCI is Megaman X.
I keep playing DMX music in my head everytime I look at the trailer. Now show me Spider-Man, that's my other *****.

I wonder what his weapons are gonna be. Obviously he'll have the X-Buster. But I hope he'll get cool choices for his moves. Speed Burner/Nova Strike, Frost Tower, Homing Torpedo, Chameleon Sting/Twin Slasher, Tornado Fang, Storm Tornado, Melt Creeper.

Now for my MvCI predictions round two.

Confirmed for Marvel:
Iron Man
Captain Marvel

Confirmed for Capcom:
Ryu
X

Borderline Guaranteed for Marvel:
Captain America
Spider-Man
Black Widow
Thor
Hulk
Black Panther
Doctor Strange
At least someone from Guardians (going with Star-Lord here)

Borderline Guarantee for Capcom:
Chun-Li
A Resident Evil character (going with Chris here)
Morrigan
Frank West
At least someone from Monster Hunter (Felyne?)
Dante

Up in the air for Marvel:
Hawkeye (sadly I can see him getting the short end of the stick and be a support for Widow instead)
Ant-Man (like Hawkeye, I can see him getting skipped over, as much as I want him in)
Any other Guardian (low roster space)
Heroes without their own film (folks like Vision, Winter Soldier, Scarlet Witch, and Falcon)
Non-MCU, Non-Fox characters (like Nova, Ms. Marvel, She Hulk, etc)
Loki

Up in the air for Capcom:
Bison or Akuma
A SFV newcomer (Rashid?)
Additional RE characters
Phoenix Wright
Arthur
Zero


Just my current thoughts. Maybe Thanos/Akuma could be the final boss?

My issue is that it always comes off as "I don't like that a ton of people like this game" which is really shallow in my opinion. Does it really bother you that others are entertained by something you're not (or in other cases find it way more entertaining)? If it's something harmful, I get it, but it's video games.

Crash N. Sane Collection looks like a solid remake with some neat improvements (time trials in Crash 1 and 2, a proper saving system in the former, etc.), though I do agree with @Champ Black that the graphics look washed out. I also feel like some of the atmosphere in Crash 1 is lost, though I honestly expected that.

Also X in MvC Infinite hype!

I just wonder how they are going to do X in general. Are they going to make him like Vs. Capcom Megaman and Volnett with the switch-between weapons? Or after Megaman's positive reception in Smash, are they going to take the Smash route with X and have him use multiple boss weapons on the fly?

Akuma's reveal trailer for Street Fighter V has been posted.


He sure grew out those sideburns and his beard (without the 'stache) to the extreme.

At the end of the MvC trailer I'm pretty sure that's a combination of Sigma and Ultron
The Blue eyes really fit Sigma's whilst the head look's somewhat like Ultron's.

Just bring back Rocket Raccoon and the game is good.

Maybe then, I'll have an excuse to knock those COD addicted brothers of mines off and play the damn console for once.

Also the UMvC3 rerelease is coming out on the non-PS4 systems in March.

Uh. . .

I'm wondering whether this is coincidence or an NDA.

Whatever happens with Infinite, there's pretty much nothing stopping UMvC3 from coming out on the Switch except whether or not Capcom feels like it since it's a PS3-level game.

So overjoyed about Mahvel-reveal today, I've been dying to see UMVC3 ported sometime in the future, and the new game already

gives a nice sum of promise with the character choices. Though I hope they don't pull off another SFxTekken, but we'll see.

And I thought I wouldn't have lost myself on the Crash-trailer, but it's really, REALLY looking good!




And then we have Parappa, Locoroco + Patapon getting remasters apparently, that Neogeo-remake I can't remember the name off...

We're in a for quite a ride...

There was a problem fetching the tweet
I...I actually think Capcom's realized people love Mega Man if true
I somehow completely missed this in the trailer.

Holy ****.

OK, well no X-Men in the trainer but I'm still pretty confident about at least Wolverine and Deadpool being in. I don't figure they would make that big of a deal for this game considering they added them in their other recent games as well. BUT HOLY ****ING **** IT'S MAHVEL YO!!!

I seriously hope it's on the fly. Stance changes were okay with Volnutt and Ammy. But making his moveset as easy to use like Mega Man's Smash moveset would be ideal. I mean, I know it isn't a fighter, but Project X Zone has a good idea with how I feel his moves could sorta kind of work. Maybe.

I hope he has sick normals too.

He's the true platformer hero.

Here's a fun question for all you that just crossed my mind:

Who is a character you love/like in Smash but hate/dislike in the home game they are from, or vice versa?

Corrin.

I would love to go on a rant about everything wrong with his Conquest characterization, but you can already tell what I'm going to say.

I guess some hipsters just get really bothered by other people not being hipsters. . .despite the fact that if everyone was a hipster that would invalidate the purpose of being a hipster.

That and a lot of people seem to think that others having different tastes than them is somehow disturbing, sometimes for no reason whatsoever and other times because they feel like blaming the antics of a handful of fans on the entire fandom.

I wish people would just let each other like things, too.

Aside from the fact that it's probably not worth the effort
Yeaaaaah, that is a bit of a problem. Third parties do tend to see Nintendo as not worth the effort.

Still, March is an interesting date for multiplat ports, and Nintendo has apparently been buttering up third parties quite a bit behind the scenes. There's a pretty good chance it won't happen, but it's also possible somebody tried to sell them on portable Marvel Vs Capcom since that kind of situation apparently won over some other companies and said companies are currently under NDA on things that were full on shown. I give it a coin flip. January could be interesting.

Hate is a real strong word but I'm not fond of Animal Crossing. :4villager:

Just kind of boring.

Not hate, but I really don't care for Dr. Mario outside of Smash. Probably because he's still just Mario and the fact that I don't care for his own games (no interest in the puzzle genre).

Pikachu.
It's pretty fun to play as in Smash, but I don't really like it as a Pokemon.
