[PsychoIncarnate]

Since I never bought fates I may get it

 

[Tree Gelbman]

So those Resident Evil 7 spoilers going around.

Wow.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I just realized 3 of the Kurt balls are based on the Johto starters

 

[Swamp Sensei]

So those Resident Evil 7 spoilers going around.

Wow.

What are they?

 

[Tree Gelbman]

What are they?

Spoiler

The game ends with a guy dropping out of an Umbrella helicopter. Takes off a gas mask. Says his name is Redfield. Apparently earlier in the game the lead gets in touch with Chris?

There's also mentions of the reporter chick from the Outbreak series.

 

[Mythra]

I stopped taking RE7 seriously since they added William Levy to the cast. :v

EDIT: I know, I know; I confused the game with the movie.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

What are they?

Spoiler

Oh, and the man is credited as Chris Redfield, but looks nothing like the buff roid monster from 5 and 6.

Some think its Hunk posing as Chris.

lol wut

Spoiler: RE7 Spoilers

I'm not so sure its not Chris.

But if so, why the hell is Chris with Umbrella?

Spoiler

He definitely looked better as the roid monster.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

He definitely looked better as the roid monster.

I agree with this line but it makes me giggle regardless.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

LOL Seeing someone get blocked by Kamiya over a Power Rangers ****post is the funniest **** I've ever seen.

Spoiler: RE7 Spoilers

So uh..

Is the game any good?

And are there other RE characters besides Chris "Boulder Punching in his youth" Redfield and apparently the reporter who I don't remember because I never played the game?

Spoiler

Apparently people are having mixed reactions. Some are saying it's good. Some are saying it's average and too linera.
Most people are praising Jack for being a great villain.

No one has found other connections to the games from what I've seen, but it's possible.

I don't think that's Chris though. Why would they release a movie with the roid rage version then have him look closer to his REMake/Code Veronica area here? Definitely think Hunk is intercepting a rescue from Chris.

Eh.

Spoiler: RE7 Spoilers

I just think using Hunk would be too smart. Are there other references to Hunk?

Glad to know Jack is fun though.

Spoiler

No, but Roger Craig Smith is not voicing Chris here. Strangely though in the Japanese version Chris has seven voice actors, including his original Japanese voice actor furthering complicating the ending and if it's really Chris.

But most people think it's not Chris, because as you said why would Chris be with Umbrella? The fact he takes off a gas mask as well, leads people to believe that it's Hunk as well. There's also the fact that Chris has suddenly and randomly started introducing himself by last name only?

 

[Delzethin]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Nintendo honestly should have started development on this a few months earlier to release it near launch

That's not how it works. Who here could say they have enough insight to dive headfirst into a game's development several months ahead of time, potentially before some important concepts are even ironed out, to have the game ready at a launch date that itself probably isn't set in stone yet?

I understand the concerns over not having a ton of content on the Switch right at launch. Really, I do. But consider how much they already have planned for the first eight months. Look at this murderers' row of a lineup:

Launch: Breath of the Wild
Launch: Bomberman R
April: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
~April-May: ARMS
~June-July: Splatoon 2
(Speculation) ~September: Smash 4.5
~November: Super Mario Odyssey
(Speculation) Early December: Xenoblade Chronicles 2

I bet most of us here want to buy at least half of those. And that's not including the smaller titles. Or the stuff with still unconfirmed release windows, like Fire Emblem Warriors. Or even the rumored games that haven't officially been announced yet, like the wtf factor that is a Mario/Rabbids crossover, or Gamecube Virtual Console, or the ever-coveted worldwide release of Mother 3?

Sure, it may not be the hype bomb some of us thought we'd get, but this is a marathon, not a sprint, and the Switch looks well equipped to go a pretty far distance in its first year.

More RE7 spoilers:

Spoiler

"Chris" gives you a handgun named ''Albert"

Hmm.

Even marathon runners have to start strong.

Cuckoo RE7 theory:

Spoiler

What if Wesker has brought himself back in a cloned body of Chris?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

When's the FE Direct? Did they give us a time or just 'wednesday'?

Makes just about as much sense as anything else in that series.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Can you imagine if Capcom hired Hideo Kojima to make a Resident Evil reboot?

Imagine.

You think the series is crazy now?

Not till it gets Kojima-ed.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

It seems everyone that plays this, ends up loving it.

I'm glad.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Since I slept through the strange 00's animated movies discussion, allow me to chip in now.

All I remember about any of the movies listed is this Manly Guys Doing Manly Things (warning: Gore and lots of it) where Duke Nukem slaughters the aliens for stealing our women. The author apparently got sick and tired of watching the trailers at cinemas.

When was the last time this thread was that active?
Also, this is my last premium day. It was fun while it lasted, but I guess all good things come to an end.

Why is your custom title "I EAT ASS"?

 

[Deleted member]

...

Why is your custom title "I EAT ***"?

I knew someone would ask that.
I'm using this title out of sheer irony. It started on Twitter as a joke with some of my IRL friends, and I decided to bring it over.

 

[powerprotoman]

When's the FE Direct? Did they give us a time or just 'wednesday'?

they said it would be 2pm pst so 5pm est is my guess if i can time properly

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Watching gameplay footage of the Friday the 13th game. It definitely looks as if playing the counselors is far more fun.

Jason could be fun, but it just looks like a lot of roaming around aimlessly until you find someone to kill, where as the kids actually have things to do to get out of the camp.

 

[Opossum]

Wanting something to exist just to prove people wrong is the best reason to want something to exist.

Well that, and the rumor that its gameplay style is close to Code Name: S.T.E.A.M.'s is neat. I can dig that.

 

[powerprotoman]

i dont know why but i get this gut feeling the fire emblem direct tomorrow will be the first of 3-6 directs between now and the switchs launch

 

[Cutie Gwen]

they said it would be 2pm pst so 5pm est is my guess if i can time properly

If it's like the Switch event, then it's about 8pm

Also, second best nut button joke

Spoiler

Can someone edit out the top half?

 

[Swamp Sensei]

i dont know why but i get this gut feeling the fire emblem direct tomorrow will be the first of 3-6 directs between now and the switchs launch

Yeah I kind of agree and....

Wait...

IT"S TOMORROW?!?!

 

[Cutie Gwen]

IT"S TOMORROW?!?!

Here lies Swamp
He died from hype

 

[Deleted member]

Oh, there's a Faiā Emuburemu direct tomorrow?
I might take another break then.
This thread will explode considering how many people here are FE fans. Since I still haven't played any game in the franchise, I'll better stay out of here for some time because otherwise I'll get lost pretty quickly.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

...

It's already been six days since the Swtich trailer?

Well ****.

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Gonna spoil the hype and say that it's probably a "Direct" as much as the Sun Moon reveal was

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Gonna spoil the hype and say that it's probably a "Direct" as much as the Sun Moon reveal was

Nah, in SM's case, they never said Direct

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Speaking of Fire Emblem, do you think the mobile game will be premium or FTP? If that latter, what are some examples on the market that you hope Nintendo will NOT follow.

 

[PushDustIn]

That reminds me. PushDustIn How do you feel about your source who's giving you that Smash info now that a these quote unquote trustworthy leakers were shown to be super wrong?

So far everything that the particular source that told me about Melee VC/"Smash for Switch" has come true (No Miiverse, no web browser (I directly mentioned it in the SG Discord)). Still waiting to hear about a particular Mii Costume and the games to be confirmed (obviously). The original source on it didn't say anything about analog triggers in particular, and I pointed out when I reported the rumor that I heard the Switch didn't have analog triggers from other sources. You can read that rumor again, here (Use the archive to show that I haven't changed it at all too). That being said, there's still a chance the rumor is wrong, so I suggest taking everything with a grain of salt.

I discussed possible reasons why Smash could've missed the presentation here:
