Yeah, personally I can't get behind the idea of a Smash port with just the IC's, Wolf, and Inklings added in. Granted I don't even like the Inklings and IC's and Wolf aren't going to make me want to buy the game for a 3rd time. A Smash port needs to have annual or even semi-annual updates that adds characters to the game to get me interested in the game.

I also have to mentality of waiting for the January event and making my decision but all and all I can't say i'm too optimistic about the Switch other than me liking the concept and a few games.
Me neither. I get that characters are the primary reason why Smash Bros. sells, but there should be more than that. I don't think having just those three characters is a big selling point. Some redeeming features that make it worth getting over 3DS/Wii U should be added as well. And I'm a bit skeptical about making Smash Bros. a service, since at one point the development team will have to stop working on it and move on to other projects. They could, however, release DLC the way they did up until February, which I'd settle with.

The only thing so far that I haven't been entirely positive about the Switch is just the wide array of ports that are coming out for the system, as I mentioned in my previous post. Otherwise, it's looking good. No longer do I need to rearrange my home console entertainment center just to put something else in there.

One small thing I'm wondering about (which isn't really that big of a deal, right?) is what account system will Switch use... Nintendo Account, or Nintendo Network ID? Based on what they've been doing lately, my best guess would be the former. My Nintendo, which is a Nintendo Account service, will soon implement a Friends feature, and the Nintendo Account service has already implemented a User ID (username) feature, so I suppose this would mean they might be ditching the Nintendo Network ID account system sometime later on while keeping the Nintendo Network online services themselves intact. But then again, I don't really know much about that.

While the last 3 are just mostly there for fun, you might want to look into the Capcom Unity Polls, especially the Round 2 ones. While they weren't officially endorsed by Capcom, they were done by a Official Capcom Unity Mod and were even mentioned by Capcom. Especially for the Capcom characters, since Strider, Phoenix, Frank and Vergil were in Round 2, Firebrand and Nemesis were in Round 1 and Megaman X was Number 1 on the Round 2 Poll.
Well.....good to know Pixiv loves Runaways

I think tonight I experienced the first, and possibly only, Christmas Dance where they play Space Jam as a special request.
Oh, and I went up on the stage and did and air guitar rendition during the solo part of Bohemian Rhapsody (and my parents were chaperoning too) XD

USA finally wins a major.


And it's all thanks to beat girl R. Mika with those Cesaro swings.

Well, time for Marvel

I didn't even know that Mario Kart fans and F-Zero fans had a rivalry :confused: That's news to me.

Speaking of which, I could go for a good round of Double Dash right now...I need something as a pick me up.
Its no rivalry, it's literally ****** F-Zero fans blaming a series that always sells.

And this is from a massive F-Zero fan

Great idea until a Lord challenges a literal tank instead of a figurative one.

No Speed growth can outrun 5 tanks firing at once.


I would feel even worse for the fliers though. Guns a plenty and "anti-air" units. RIP
:061:
It could work if you used the different classes as the different units in AW. Like use Mercs/Samurai as Infantry, Cavaliers as Tanks, Mages as Artillery, Archers as Anti-Air/Artillery Guns, Pegasus Knights as Helicopters, Wyvern Knights as Bombers, Kinshi Knights as Fighter Jets, Pirates/Corsairs for navel units, etc.
Does anybody remember Suikoden and the Army Battle sections? You had to do a rather Rock/Paper/Scissors-like gameplay mixed with Tactic/Army elements where Infantry beat Archers, Archers beat Mages and Mages beat Infantry, that sorta deal.
This was even more evident in Suikoden 2, which did armies in a top-down style like Advance Wars/Fire Emblem. You moved them much like FE/AW, did the Rock/Paper/Scissors-styled battling and some commanders even gave special abilities to their armies, like adding horses and becoming cavalry, Fire spears that dealt damage to multiple enemies, especially to cavalry, Runes for magic effects, etc. Here's some gameplay:
Anyway, I think a FE X AW-styled game or a fantasy-styled Advance Wars has potential and can work.

This is why I needed the Poke-bank, so that I wouldn't be here for over an hour just trading mons over...

But now's the time for another playthrough back in Sun version...

Marvel 4 looks a lot like TvC/SFxT.

I'm totally up for that! Looks sick as hell.

I thought Smash Bros already had shipping. Heck, I'm sure Sakurai even knows he added it in.

There weren't any assists in that trailer. Wonder if they're actually in the game or they just didn't show them off for some reason.

My idea of FE X AW was to have a "worlds collide" vibe to it where Fire Emblem characters get pulled in to the Advance Wars universe and are somehow at odds with the CO's until the two sides put aside there differences to face a common threat. The game would feature every FE Lord and AW CO and would have gameplay elements from both series. I'd like to think of this game like MK VS DC.

TvC = Nice
SFxT = Not as nice

I missed the gameplay so I'll have to wait for it to be on Youtube.
SFxT actually doesn't play too badly. Just poor DLC management, balance issues, etc.

Hopefully they're refining the 2v2 style. It's the right direction for Marvel IMO.

Daaaamn that looks kinda rough, as expected since it's probably super early gameplay.

X doesn't even have facial expressions or a voice.

Anyway, that did look pretty fun, here's hoping Infinity Stones don't much things up.

Out of blue here but does anyone know the sales figures for every DLC character in Smash Bros? Was it ever disclosed?

It looks pretty nice so far. Definitely reminds me of Tatsunoko vs Capcom. That being said, you can tell it's in development since I don't think X even has a voice, much less facial expressions.
Now I just need one more question answered. Is Robert Downey Jr. voicing Iron Man or is it another voice actor? It's been a long time since last watched a Marvel movie with Iron Man in it.

Well, it is based on Polynesian culture, not Hawaiian culture.(Hawaiian culture stemmed from Polynesian, but they are separate cultures. Not to say that that's the reason why they didn't like it.)

Honestly MvC looks fine. Not breathtaking, but not horrible. Interested to see who else is going to make the cut. Wish the Xmen were there.

That said my bf lost his mind over the trailer. If I didn't know any better I would've sworn he was one of the dudes in the crowd making a huge scene. xD So us getting it and it being played extensively at my house is... a certainty. I guess I'm committed either way haha.

It was not, and I doubt it will ever be.

It's a shame. I really want to know how each individual character sold. My guess is that Cloud was #1 and Corrin or Lucas/Roy were at the bottom.

Well, it is based on Polynesian culture, not Hawaiian culture.(Hawaiian culture stemmed from Polynesian, but they are separate cultures. Not to say that that's the reason why they didn't like it.)
One of the things they disliked was that they mixed things, but I don't know how much truth there is to that. If it is true it depends on what was mixed. Maui legends? FINE. How can you just pick one set of stories as true or not in a case like this. Traditions? Iffy. Langauge? Bad. Get that right.

One criticism is that Dwanye, was too corny. Of course that's why some of the group loved him.

One criticism is that the villain (the big lava monster) is based on Pele. Except I don't think that's true. Especially if it isn't just Hawaiian mythology.
