Here's an interesting question that relates to Super Mario Odyssey; do you believe the K. Rool street sign in New Donk City is hinting at King K. Rool as a boss or do you believe it's just meant to be a small cameo and that's it? Yes, I know there was also a Dixie and Cranky sign cameo (along with a Squawks and Ramby sign cameo), but you never know.

For reference, here's an image:



To be honest, maybe this could also mean K. Rool will come back in a new DK game or get into Smash? That'd be awesome for both the former and latter, but especially the latter. :p
It raises his chances about as much as it raises the chances of the likes of Dixie, Cranky, Tiny, Espresso and Rambi etc.

It's most likely just a reference. I would like to see DK himself show up in this game though. (Or maybe even someone like Wario or anyone else that isn't the usual suspects and all)

Whats the difference between bronze stars and silver stars?

Is 3 bronze stars still better than 2 silver stars? I'm confused.

Also I just realised my Wrys is 4 silver stars but after looking at the tier list I thought since he is the worst healer of them all(tho I feel he does a great job but my units suck anyway) I should level up my Serra who's at the second highest tier.

But shes 3 bronze stars...so is Wrys or Serra better? fml I don't get any of this.
The colour of the stars is just cosmetic in most cases (when deciding on a map to play, they indicate the rarity of the enemy units; otherwise, two stars are always grey, three are always bronze, four are always silver, five are always gold).

Four stars is a better starting point than three stars, three stars is a better base than two stars, and so on. They're just base stats, though - growth rates are (presumably) a thing, so it's possible that a three-star unit can end up better than a four-star unit if the four-star unit gets screwed badly enough. But usually the four-star unit will have enough of a head start that they will usually turn out better regardless.

mfw Ingrid was actually considered for UMvC3 along with Tessa, SonSon, Nina and a grown up Anita .
mfw Gill almost made it in.

So close, yet so far...
That's a bummer. Though it's good to hear BoF characters made it so far.

These might be slightly older tweets, but a separate user provided some further translations.

Basically Frank West was at odds with Gene (Godhand), Onimusha had rights issues despite Soki in TvC, and Demetri for obvious reasons.

So LEGO Batman is actually really ****ing good and reaches really deep with the references at times.

The jokes are brilliant too.

Best DC film since The Dark Knight easily.

Lets see what Youtube recommends this time
Haedoxx: DOES FIRE EMBLEM ON MOBILE WORK?
Matpat:WHO IS GASTER?
Me: **** all y'all, why can't I block you little ****s
Yeah I mean, we all know who is W.D. Gaster. I watched the show when I was seven and I always hear the theme song in my head. Toby Fox really should have created a original character if he wanted to put a mistery into the aftergame.

Since FE Heroes is the talk of the town right now, here's some chats for you peeps. As expected, the game is doing great in Japan. The combination of a popular IP plus the gacha format prints money. It's doing pretty alright in the good ole US too, but the gap is noticeable. I'd imagine it's even bigger for other regions. However, this thing is designed to last and bring in money in the long term, so I'd expect it to be Nintendo's best money making app until Animal Crossing.

A more fun fact, it's the 20th anniversary of SFIII New Generation.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

It was controversial at the time for it's rebooting of the entire SF cast, plus it was a bit experimental with it's parry system. Truth be told, NG is not a good game, but it laid the foundation that eventually became Third Strike, a very celebrated game and a personal favorite of mine.

Mother****ing bull****.
Pet Shop won a fight against Iggy on Salty Bet, I didn't even bet and that made me salty
Alright, what exactly is Salty Bet because Iggy wins that fight canonically what is this bull****
The RWBY Volume 4 finale is 5 and a half hours from now. Time to traumatize myself to kill time
*goes on a twitter account*
O.O
I didn't expect it to get NSFW
Wait, it's already time for the finale?
See, this is the **** I talk about RWBY's pacing, there was almost nothing happening this volume and even less of a build up to a finale. Let's go over the list based on each character story
Ruby:
-Traveled around like this is some fantasy RPG land
-Fought some random encounters
-Jaune made us feel
-Ren and Nora are ******* and sent their friends alone with an injured Qrow in the direction of a powerful Grimm
-Dark and Troubled Pasts
-Crazy-Ax villain fight the good guys
-Qrow shows semblance
-Yang's mom is still a ****

Yang:
-Punished Yang deals with her robotic arm
-Her father shows up, finally

Blake:
-Random sea monster attack
-Taking your boyfriend to meet your parents
-Relatable.png
-In this case, I'm Sun
-Oh no, the Black White Fang is evil!
-Totally didn't see that one coming

Weiss:
-Daddy issues
-That's it
-That's her whole arc

Farm boy:
-He goes crazy
-What's the point of him again?
-Hazel shows up and looks super intimidating...
-But is actually a cool guy that gives Farm Boy a train passage

In general:
No ****ing character development happened
So I got bored and took a picture of my heroes. That poor little one star from that special map lol
I don't get why they even bother giving you 2* at the start when you can't summon anything lower than 3*
It's like they're ASKING to be benched

Matpat asking them serious questions. But I wouldn't dwell on it. After all, its rude to talk about someone when they are listening.

Today I learned: There's a wrestling indie game for the PS4 which it's playable characters are thinly veiled ripoffs of actual wrestlers. This is actually pretty common in non-licensed wrestling games, what makes it extra hilarious here is the theme songs.

For example: Here's Randy Orton's theme.


Now here's "Raging" Andy Organ's theme.

It's sad how hilariously wrong and contradictory this is.
Now I'll drop the rest in spoilers

Ruby:
-Traveled around like this is some fantasy RPG land
-Fought some random encounters
-Jaune made us feel
-Ren and Nora are ******* and sent their friends alone with an injured Qrow in the direction of a powerful Grimm
-Dark and Troubled Pasts
-Crazy-Ax villain fight the good guys
-Qrow shows semblance
-Yang's mom is still a ****
On top of Jaune giving Ruby a talk and showing his annoyance at Ozpin's crew for not being clear on everything after Qrow explains the **** to them.
Much needed backstory for Ren and Nora which develops them.
All the destroyed towns, the dying huntsman and Qrow getting injured being a catalyst for Ruby realising that she can't save everyone nor rely on someone to come and save her at the last second.
Plus stuff in the finale.

-Punished Yang deals with her robotic arm
-Her father shows up, finally
So she developed her character then considering the sparring matches between her and Tai having them chat as well as when Oobleck and Port were around.
Also Tai was in Volume 3, twice.
Again another thing in the finale that definitely requires paying attention.

Blake:
-Random sea monster attack
-Taking your boyfriend to meet your parents
-Relatable.png
-In this case, I'm Sun
-Oh no, the Black White Fang is evil!
-Totally didn't see that one coming
Glossing over Sun giving Blake a talk she needs and her explaining why she runs or Blake now deciding to stop running and actually fight.

Weiss:
-Daddy issues
-That's it
-That's her whole arc
On top of being the only person in Atlas (aside from Ironwood) who actually knows whats going on whilst everyone else is too busy being a load of self centred pricks. Weiss' arc here is a culmination from her actually getting exposure to the outside world in the previous Volumes on top of finally summoning properly, something that she couldn't manage before.

And I guess none of that **** about Iron"I have two seats on the council"wood happened.

Farm boy:
-What's the point of him again?
AKA you didn't pay attention. The whole series has dropped hints about it since Volume 1 (Blake's book, "I've made more mistakes than any Man, Woman or Child on this planet")

It's like you've forgotten the basics of how a Series works. Stuff that happened in past seasons should never be ignored because the events in past seasons build up and the current season shows a culmination or continues building on them.

I'll agree that pacing was an issue though but to say that there was no character development?
That's just being utterly ignorant.

After years of owning my Xbox username of RoughshodPoppy1 (a randomly generated name I lazily kept), I finally look up what a roughshod means:

rough·shod
ˈrəfˌSHäd/
adjective
archaic
adjective: roughshod
  1. (of a horse) having shoes with nailheads projecting to prevent slipping.

Huh, learn something new everyday. Still too lazy to change it. :p

I should post my FE6 army sometime soon
But I have to say, you've got to be crazy to use Wendy, like, what the hell? How did you make her work?
Fae is going to be deadweight once she spents those Dragonstone uses. It's ****ing Myrrh all over again, I can't believe I almost fell for that trap
Also
>Using Ogier over Dieck
Blocked

Yeah, but you can't summon Anna or the two Lords
Guess it's so you can't rely on them for the whole game
Also Tai was in Volume 3, twice.
He was? I only remember him showing as background in a scene with Ruby visiting her mother's grave but that's it
I'll agree that pacing was an issue though but to say that there was no character development?

Alright, I guess I have to admit I was smwrong

I remember Ozpin's quote but am I supposed to remember that book she was reading? I mean, it makes for some pretty nice hints but don't expect me to remember such a small detail

Kinda want to be sarcastic here but considering your choice of words I'll just assume you've never played UT, and leave it at that.

Okay. Thanks for the info. Not sure why you're informing me this but its free so whatever. :4megaman:
I added those 2 in case you were talking about them when you said it was impolite to talk about people when they're not there. And Undyne looks like her head is a fish so eh

He's literally the first person Ruby sees when she wakes up in the V3 finale then Qrow tells him to leave.

She says her book is about "a man with two souls" in Shining Beacon Part 2.
The show has loads of subtle hints in general so it's always worth going back through to look for them. When you see some it's like "Oh so this was hinting at that!"
