Oooh.

The more and more I think about the Sonic Forces Villains trailer, the more and more excited I get for the game.

Even if they totally botch up the lore/characterisation/story aspect of it, having these characters together brings so many possibilities to the table for boss fights.

>Metal Sonic and Chaos fuse again, boom, Neo Metal Sonic and/or Metal Overlord is back
>Shadow and Zavok as some close range martial arts tag team
>Chaos could end up with any number of Chaos Emeralds at different points in the story, allowing for different boss fights from him
>Shadow and Metal Sonic work together since they were a team in Sonic Rivals 2
>Plus Eggman and his returning masterpieces like Death Egg Robots and Egg Dragoon
>Plus Infinite

If nothing else, this game has the potential to have a god-tier Boss Rush mode.

I have a question for all you Layton fans out there. Please excuse my ignorance, as I've never played a Professor Layton game despite my interest in them, but is Professor Layton a Nintendo-only series?
If he were ever in Smash, would he be considered first/second party or third?

Personal victory moment.

I've had a lot of misadventures. Lot of those were tied into employment, and my income's been spotty since 2011.

As a result, I racked up a pretty substantial debt on my credit card. It was in the low thousands before I first joined Smashboards, and by July of 2013 it capped at its $10,000 credit limit. For the next three years, it remained there.

But as of relatively recently, I've stabilized. Starting in April 2016, I was finally in a position where I could begin to pay off my credit card balance. Throwing roughly half my monthly income at it, I wore it away.

There's been a lot of ups and downs, but this morning I paid the remaining balance and completed my task.

The beast is slain.

I am beholden to no man.

Eat literally every ****, credit card.

It's a third party series, though Nintendo publishes the games in Western territories. Nintendo's creative/development teams don't have any involvement with the games.

The only reason Layton games have mostly been DS/3DS exclusive is because the dual screens of those systems was just a perfect fit for the puzzle gameplay. It also helps that the Nintendo audience are a good fit for the games.

For a time, so did I. And given the option, it's what I'd advise. I've lived both ways, and I know what I prefer.

But when you're unemployed or taking individual contract jobs and you still have to pay rent, fix the car, eat...

The money had to come from somewhere, and when I couldn't make enough, it came from there. That's what got it so high in the first place.

But now it's dead. I am eager to return to the debit days.

The series is owned by Level-5 which is a third party company. Nintendo handles the publishing outside of Japan though. Well at least for the original and prequel trilogies, Layton's Mystery Journey is probably self published and localized by Level-5 in house since it's being released to IOS devices too and Nintendo has nothing to do with that as far as I'm aware.

So yes, he'd be a third party character if he was ever included in Smash.

 

[mario123007]

Well, while I do know some stuff about Xenoblade. I don't think I know enough to make theory. Plus, theory aren't my thing soooo sorry dude. (Heck, I haven't played the game in a long time and I am not that far into it. Which is sad since I really like it)

But I will say that, whatever happen in X2, they better reference the end of X1 and make the character likeable. Becaue while Pyra is THICC, she better be a good character if she don't want to become a base-breaking character.

And lastly, I hope the dub will be better, because for now, it's just narmy as ****.

If you didn't finish Xenoblade then it's obvious that you can think of any theory... the ending of the first Xenoblade game is very twisted, I highly recommend you to finish it.

I think Pyra is a good character (And nah...she isn't thicc... there's too many thicc characters already from Nintendo). However I said before I won't be too fond on her yet since we haven't know every character yet.

XC1 had its dose of kek voice acting, but that is what makes it memorable in some way.
I was annoyed at Rex's voice, but then I heard the "WHATS TEH METTAH?" dude and I was like:

They were... British accent... that's all I can say. They were good an memorable. I mean...

Eh, for me, XC1 dub was maybe a little goofy at time. But it was still pretty good and I didn't feel like the voice were out of character or just didn't care. In XC2 however, god, Rex voice, like, I hope he git gud when the game is released or else, I may change the voice to Japanese if the quality of the voice are like him. (Not helping the fact that he seem really generic when it come to design and character. I get what they were trying to do with him. But so far, I am not sold on it) The other voice are fine for the most part, but I can't really remember them so I hope they put more effort into it. (Tough, Pyra voice was good from what I remember? If yes, then she is really going to be the reason why peoples will buy this game)

Rex's Japanese voice sounds a lot like Shulk. Still haven't watch the E3 trailer in Japanese, I'm not sure if there is one yet...

I do it at my own pace. I have already too many game to finish so I will play it when I feel like it.

I will also wait before saying she is a good character. But for now, her design is a win in my book.

 

[Jdaster64]

ITT, apparently people didn't drift just short of 100% of the time in Double Dash to avoid having to deal with handling physics at all.

Idk, I played it far more than 64 back in the day since I didn't own an N64 until 2007, so it was my first substantial Mario Kart experience, but I find its physics by far the most satisfying to this day (I still regularly do a couple 16-track runs in VS. mode every time I visit my younger siblings). Couldn't really care less about the kart selection and double-riders thing. The only problem I have with the game is that it's the last one with only 16 courses; as much as I enjoy them all at this point, they do go by rather quickly. Maybe it's all just a matter of when I got into the series, but 64's drifting always felt like it was about to go careening off in some undesirable direction if I held left/right for more than half a second, and the handling still seemed oversensitive. Wii/7/8 were better on those counts, but I always enjoyed how quickly you could get boosts in Double Dash and DS, and the courses were designed with tight turns to match. Just my two cents.

It's not praise worthy if you have to drift all of the time to have even serviceable handling. It's fundamentally flawed design.

I also remember the drift being slippery too. The whole game was on ice skates.

 

[Aurane]

Double Dash was alright.

I like the idea of two drivers on one kart.

But the mechanics weren't the best.

I'd say my favorite Mario Kart would have to be MK8.

 

[mario123007]

I do it at my own pace. I have already too many game to finish so I will play it when I feel like it.

I will also wait before saying she is a good character. But for now, her design is a win in my book.

Turns out that Japanese Xenoblade Chronicles 2 have additional dialogues. Reyn: Oh, C'mon.... that's not fair
The "Military uniform girl" seems to be saying something to Rex and Homura/Pyra. Something about Blade and Driver, before that another girl's voice seems to be saying "Driver of the Egis, is Rex?" (this is my "guess translate", I do learn Japanese but I'm barely learned some vocabulary and sentence structure). She's probably saying Rex and Homura are both useless as blade and driver, again I might be wrong.

??? No 2 (That old dude fighting against Rex): You...and that sword...CAN'T BE!!!!! I'm guessing your goal...is Elysium.

Homura/Pyra said something after this.

??? No 3 (A female we do not know yet. I'm guessing it's Hikari): This blade he calls Pyra, have flames hide something deeper...

This part was said by a dude in Japanese, at least I know it wasn't said by Hikari.

So there are actually some minor differences/addition dialogues in the Japanese trailer... don't know why...
Nevertheless, Rex sounds way better and just like Shulk in Japanese.

It's...literally not though.

The strap is tight so it's pushing the flesh of her bottom inward, but for the most part she's got a smaller, firmer butt. Especially evident when you see her directly from the back in-game.

You'd have to literally have only seen twigs in your life to think that's "thicc".

What she's lacking in the back she makes up for in the front clearly...

Either way...

[Jdaster64]

I also remember the drift being slippery too. The whole game was on ice skates.

It's not so much that I have to drift as much as it is that drifts in that game have a wider range of turn speeds than most games, start nearly instantly off the ground, and have far faster turn acceleration than turning without drifting. I don't mind drifting all the time because done optimally it allows fine tuning angles with the added benefit of constant speed-boosts.

Granted, it'd be better if the standard handling weren't as slippery to make it a fairer trade-off, but I enjoy it more than later games where karts only have the trade-off in a much narrower range of angles, and have to sustain it a lot longer. DS probably hit the sweetspot as far as options go, but I never cared for the hop you had to do to instigate drifts in the other games.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Says something that with how many people have voted in the poll so far, almost everyone wants Super Mario Odyssey.

Meanwhile, here's a theory I came up with earlier today:

Crackpot theory: Retro Studios' secret project is another DK game. They've yet to reveal it because Nintendo wanted to reveal MP4 first.

— Delzethin (@Delzethin) June 16, 2017

They realized certain fans would riot if it turned out Retro was making DK again with no Metroid in sight.

— Delzethin (@Delzethin) June 16, 2017

Now that Metroid Prime 4 is a confirmed thing, they'll be free to reveal the Retro project in a couple months or so without any backlash.

Asui should be Lucio...
Todoroki is not just Mei, but also the Pyro...
Bakugo being Mercy...WHAT?! He should switch with Kirishima. And Kirishima should be Soldier 76. Because, ya know, he's a real man. Mercy... I really can't think of anyone in class 1-A that is suitable. That leaves the Recovery Girl being the only candidate, but...she's old...
Denki can be Winston (Because he shocks people)
Edit: Hatsume Mei can be Torbjorn, nuff said. Similar to how Torbjorn shouts "My baby!" when his turret got destroyed. Mei also call her inventions babies.

Metroid fans on websites less sane than this one are a special kind of horrid, and that's even taking other kinds of Nintendo fans into consideration.

Even without Retro likely working on something else, Reggie actually admitted in an interview that they revealed Prime 4 early because they didn't want fans freaking out about the 3DS game.

I imagine the Pokemon mainline reveal was likely similarly motivated, but as frothing mad as the Pokemon fandom was prior to that it was an absolute drop in the bucket compared to how vindictive Metroid fans get.

Fandom in general are just insane in general. Really, it's hard to find a fandom those day who don't have any big problem in it. Steven Universe, FNAF, Sonic, Smash Bros, Metroid, etc...you get the deal. This is why I will never consider myself as a part of any fandom, because I don't want to be in a community who would whine or do worse at the second you say something negatif to them or what they love.
