I tested out that emulator that you play on the Xbox One's internet browser here are my thoughts (do note it launched today and it's in its prototype phase):

Pros:
- It can play NES, SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, & Game Boy Advance ROMs
- SNES games work great and basically flawless

Cons:

- The startup sounds when you boot up it is, while short, but TOTAL EAR ****
- Game Boy family currently crashes almost as soon as it starts
- Adding games from the OneDrive is somewhat time consuming and you can only upload one ROM to your game library at a time
- When you shut down the internet browser, your library is wiped clean the next time you get on
- No button mapping option
- Start & Select are mapped to the controller's shoulder buttons (Menu & View buttons are reserved for the browser)

Misc:
- Haven't tested NES or Genesis yet
- The ABXY buttons of the Xbox Controller do not reflect the Nintendo's button placement of ABXY (minor gripe)

But since it's in the prototype phase, what I've said may not be final

I just want my Wii Fit Trainer to return in Smash NX.

Whatever newcomers occur will be the icing on the cake.

I would be more interested in Smash NX if it wasn't rumored to be Smash Wii U+. Not saying Smash 4 is bad in any way but I already own Smash 4 on two platforms.

Honestly, if Smash NX is real. The roster is now at a point for me that outside of the lack of Toad for my Super Mario fan and Dixie/K.Rool for the DK side. I honestly don't care who gets any more.

We live in an age where Smash is a game that allows you to have an eight way match between Mario, Sonic, Link, Mega Man, Pac-Man, Cloud Strife, Ryu, and most surprisingly Bayonetta.

What a wild time. At this point we're just getting icing on top of an already deliciously iced cake.
Gonna have to agree with this.
Sure I would love Viridi, Any Bravely character, and of course Ridley, but the roster is so good im more worried about cuts and gameplay than additions.

Ever heard of "Diego the Tortoise"

His species was down to 12 females and 2 males.

They brought him to the females and he singlehandedly saved his species

He had at least 800 children

I'm sending him a boquet of wine as congratulations.

800 more Diego Jrs! Here we come!

Were there any moments in your life where you got an expensive game at a store, whether it be a local retro game store or another place like Gamestop or Walmart.

Today, I just had this miraculous moment at the local gaming store. A longtime friend of the cashier for the local retro game store lended me a free copy of Xenogears.



I did talk about the sale here and you guys said I should go get Xenogears over FF7/FF8, and so I checked the local gaming store (Which I frequent to every so often) to see if they had the pre-owned copies of Xenogears left. The cashier said that it was the only copy of the game left, and I was kind of bummed out, because I had personal businesses to take care of on Saturday to bother going to the retro store for the sale. Then the cashier's friend came up and paid it for me out of pure generosity.

He said I would owe him the 48 dollars at any time. Anyone that generous deserves a payment in return. I wanted to cry and deny the generous offer, and I did so several times. But he did it out of wanting to. And I thank him for that. I WILL definitely pay him back one day, I can't let a miracle go to waste without a return. As a result, that moment meant a lot to me and the game is something I'll treasure my whole life.

I was personally stressed out for the long-term with personal stuff about YO-KAI WATCH being a potential failure in the West and how it is a ripoff to most people, and it just hampered my enjoyment when I played games now. And I was going to make an article about the YO-KAI WATCH stuff, but I won't now. This guy single-handedly cheered up my whole negative mood today about me quitting as a gamer. And it made me think, maybe the gaming community is not as bad as I thought I would, you know.

Do you have similar moments to mine? I would love to know!
I don't think I've ever gotten a game that's been generally over list price before (the only used game I've gotten period was when I got a boxless Sapphire cartridge from GameStop that I had for a while before it eventually ran out of charge on it's internal clock), but with your concerns about Yo-Kai Watch I would like to bring back up the fact that my local GameStops and a local supermarket chain have copious amounts of merch from the series, so even if the internet is harsh at least the retailers have faith in Yo-Kai Watch.

Don't let the way people talk about Yo-Kai Watch ruin your enjoyment of gaming. What you like should yours to decide, not the decision or influence of jerks on the internet who can't psychologically handle the concept of other people liking things they either don't like or haven't even tried. And yeah, it can be hard. I don't want to be that way and I still feel like I've subconsciously started to get less out of games due to the sheer amount of hatred and whining I've read on the internet both towards everything I ever like and in general. But there's good people everywhere, same as there's bad. Sure they might not speak up most of the time, they might get buried in the darkness. But I've seen them out there, and no matter how depressing the world is those little glints somehow make it kinda worth it. You just have to be lucky enough to shine your watch in the right place at the right time.

. . .Also never read the comments on news articles, those are usually the hornet traps of the gaming community. Forums can be rough but have their diamonds, social media is a wild card. . .news articles are just a little slice of hell on earth. The good people are out there but I've never seen them on those yet. Probably just unlucky but it's healthier to check elsewhere in my experience.

I just really want everyone to return next Smash, especially Lucina.

Doesn't mean there aren't any characters I wouldn't love seeing making it in, I'd just rather Lucina come back. :chuckle:

At the start of Megaman Legends 2 Roll tells you that she sold all your weapons to fix the Flutter as in in-universe explanation for not having your old weapons.

Inafune please...

Personally? I want every character gone. Each and every one of them.
And in return for Shovel Knight. Can't have Mario and Shovel Knight in the same game after all. It would go over badly with proper mascot representation.

New Pokémon leaked: Mega Sachiko:



:upsidedown:

But seriously, this is an OFFICIAL promo card (a 'spoof' card that you can't use in decks, but still official). Moar info here.

This wouldn't be the first time there's a card that isn't an actual Pokémon. That title belong to Buried Fossil (this one however CAN be used in decks).

Hey thanks for responding to me all the time and giving me this advise. Sometimes I feel very ignored here nowadays, but you always come and respond to me in the nicest way possible. :)

Yeah, sometimes most people just respond and recommend to me with one or two words. I generally don't trust them unless there is more thought put into their discussion.

Browsing the AGT hastag on twitter makes me lose faith in humanity. There's so many salty and negative comments, it's ridiculous.

Some females just want to limit the amount of males to 10% of the population instead of them being ALL gone...

(Not joking, it is a real radical feminist proposal)

So I started playing Fate/Extra on PSP and man this game is slow.

I've been playing for a couple hours and it's mostly just been a lengthy, boring, slow prologue. Not even a tutorial really because no battles have taken place or anything. Hopefully the game picks up.

On principle I wouldn't want any characters being cut, but the only newcomers I could say I particularly don't want gone are Megaman and Little Mac.

I bought that game a few years ago but haven't ever touched it. I probably should actually play it at some point.

Your best bet is to just ask them on Twitter...they usually like all the posts they read so you know they got the request...

They actually posted a tweet not too long ago asking who we want Smashified...

*shudders*

The elephant in the room rears his ugly head.

Oh wait, he's always did everywhere I go (Gamefaqs, Twitter, etc). :rolleyes:
But wait, isn't the whole point not to address the elephant in the room?

Or you'd rather be ****ing pissed like your namesake. :smirk:

Realtalk.
She seems to just be a genderswapped version of the mob king Giorgio offs at the start of Vento Auro.

Making a Top 10 list for a newcomer pool of like 15-20 characters seems kinda reaching so i'm limiting mine to 5.

Maybe. The two do look pretty similar.

She's also got the personality of a Disney villain (Ursula being the best comparison), but more mad with power and family. But going any deeper with Big Mom would be going into spoiler territory.
