Social NintenZone Social 5 - Thanks, Everyone

[Metal Shop X]

Yeah, I probably should equip aggro boost Aux core on the second Poppi and equip aggro boost accessory on Tora.
Perhaps that might help.

In any case, I hope you the best meh.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I don't know if I'll pick up Dragon Ball FighterZ but it would be a lie if I said it's not easily one of the most beautiful looking games I've seen in a while.

Well, that's not really needed if I can just use other characters.
I mentioned before, I am not a Xenoblade battle expert, but I do know some stuff that maybe you guys might have trouble with. That said most problems I have were mostly solved thanks to GameFaqs and Youtube Videos that don't spoil. I can still help too.

Right now, I think I am fine. Just some things I need figure like, what instrumental item is Poppi's favourite? How can I achieve affinity like" revive 5 times your ally", etc...

There is also a optional key on the Titan Battleship that I don't where to get. If you have any ideas, feel free to say.

I’m so excited for that game you would not believe.

All it needs is Master Roshi and Kale(in any form) and it’s perfect.

I like this; it is amazing what people can do with these games. If enemies were added that would be cool; and for some reason I hear echos when Mario says "Yaa hoo!". I like this!

 

[Jojalole]

Well, last hours of 2017 for me, so I thought about doing a retrospective on the year for gaming. I got the Switch, and with that a brand new way of playing. I think overall it's been a good year in that department, so without futher ado, here's my top games of 2017! (That I've played of course)

Spoiler: My top games 2017

1- Xenoblade Chronicles 2

This is the true goty, a total masterpiece. I've talked enough in this site about how much I love Xenoblade, so I think there's no need for further explanation.

2-Super Mario Odyssey

It's not the game I wanted it to be, yet it was a total blast to play. Beautiful scenario, beautiful music, amazing gameplay... One of the greatest game I've ever played. Sadly, I feel it was way too short, as gathering moons doesn't feel rewarding at all, which is my main complain with the game compared to Sunshine or 64. Still, I bought the Switch to play two games, Xenoblade and Mario Odyssey, and neither let me down.

3-Sonic Mania

Yes, I love platformers. It's my favourite genre, yet I somehow missed Yokaa Laylee and A Hat in Time. But not my boy Sonic. I do normally prefer 3D Sonic, but I also love 2D Sonic, and Mania is just a beautiful game, with such great ideas and with great execution. The soundtrack is amazing, the originality of the levels is astounding, and playing it for the first time I had a smile in my face that I could not take away. A great game overall, and truly a love letter to us Sonic fans!

4-Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

I can't believe I almost forgot this game was released this year, because of the Switch nonsense that happened, but this game is great. I have problems with it, mainly the map desing (because maps that are 20 years old haven't aged well at all), but everything else was just astounding. All FE games from now on should take the presentation route of this game, because all the voice acting was insane, the scenarios were fantastic, and it was presented very well. Can't wait for FE Switch!

5-Fire Emblem Warriors

I honestly didn't think I'd like this game as much as I did. It was my first Warriors, and the roster wasn't that great... But then Lyndis appeared and cleared all my doubts. This game is surprisingly fun, and the interactions between characters was great, specially the support conversations. The soundtrack was also magnificent, and I'm pretty satisfied with the game. Also, have I said that Lyn is in the game and that she's my favourite?

6-Zelda Breath of the Wild

I don't think this game is the masterpiece everyone say it is, but I had fun with it nonetheless. I think it has the best tutorial of any videogame ever, because those first hours in the plateau are the best memories I have from the game. I have plenty of problems with this game, but the world building is great, and the physics amazed me. Also, being the first game on the Switch, I think it was a great experience to try the new console.

7-Crash Nsane Trilogy

I love platformers, and Crash was my childhood, so having him back it's great. Shame it's just a compilation of games, but they're so good I don't care. I'm still as good as I was at Crash 2, and I managed to finally beat Crash 1! This brought back so many memories, hope one day they manage to make a new game.

8-Uncharted The Lost Legacy

Uncharted is one of my favourite franchises, and Chloe was actually my favourite character of the franchise, so seeing her starring a game was mindblowing to me. The game falls short compared to other Uncharted games (specially 2 and 4), but it's still a great game overall.

9-Sonic Forces

Despite all the bad things the game has done (Which is plenty by the way) I actually had fun with it. Shame the level desing was such trash, but the soundtrack was great. It's weird, I can't think of many more good things about it, yet I had fun playing it. STRANGE ISN'T IT???

10-Splatoon 2

After Splatoon on WiiU, I was eager to play the second part, but I didn't feel as engaged as I thought I would be. It's still the same Splatoon, but I stopped playing it way sooner compared to the original one. Still, I remember it being as fun as ever.


HONORABLE MENTION:

Dai Gyakuten Saiban 2, I know Capcom has released it, and I know I would have loved it, BUT THEY DON'T WANT MY MONEY SO I CAN'T BUY IT! PLEASE CAPCOM, PLEASE! #LocalizeDGS

Well, that was the year for me. Honestly, 2018 has so much work to do if it wants to surpass 2017, had so much fun with everything!

I hope everyone here has a great start of 2018, and I hope we can stay here for a long time! I'm glad to be part of this thread.

 

[Knight Dude]

Got started on Mega Man 7. Not trying to rush it too much, but I beat the first 4 Robot Masters and got 3 of the RUSH parts. I also did 5 of the Mega Man 10 challenges. As in, the ones built into the game itself, not the Legacy Collection challenges.

I might skip MM8 and play that one last, if only because I really like the art-style. But hey, going in order might not be too bad.

I still suck with Geese Howard though. My only decent combo with him is F+1+2, 1, 1, B+3,2. And if they don't fly too far I can dash into B+4,4 for extra damage. I got slightly better combos with Jin, Nina and Eddy. King too I guess, but one of them is a lot more counterhit dependent.

 

[praline]

I feel like this cold weather is going to kill me.

 

[Opossum]

So Amazon accidentally uploaded placeholder products with an image saying "Newly Revealed at the Switch Presentation."

Between this, precedent set by years past, and the EA leak, a January presentation is Nintendo's current worst kept secret.

 

[Mythra]

I like how the Ben 10 reboot goes from 0 to 100 when the Vilgax Arc begins.
****s feel serious again

Is one of those Aninal crossing?

None of them have titles or box art so... maybe.

 

[Schnee117]

Xenoblade 2's Final Chapter opening is certainly something

Spoiler

Big ****ing spoilers

Spoiler

That space station looks very familiar...
Did they just say Klaus? As in freakin' Zanza? OH ****.
HOLY **** IT'S THAT CUTSCENE FROM XENOBLADE 1 BUT WITH CHANGES AND MORE CONTEXT

LUL the cutscene makes Klaus look like Juju LUL

 

[Megadoomer]

> Calculates prices of wanted WiiWare games and how much funds to add

:/

Is one of them Mega Man 9 or 10? Pretty sure the Proto Man or Bass characters (from 9 or 10, respectively) would cover that much. (Though you need to get the game first to access the DLC menu)

I think MM10 also has extra stages to buy as well, if that counts.

That reminds me, later I should look up the VS Mode code for Mega Man 7.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Happy New Years everyone!


Even though I'll probably be sent home early (due to being overstaffed), I'll be working on double my normal wage because it's New Year's day. Hopefully, it's enough (combined with working other days) to get a Nintendo Switch by time payday comes by

 

[Deleted member]

2017 had some duds ( Net Neutrality being removed, The Add Apocalypse and the world becoming more for greedy and corporate people ), but I have high hopes for 2018.

Spoiler: Jacksepticeye's Thoughts of 2017

This video is actually emotional, just want to point that out.

In all seriousness; it was a pleasure to be here and to be able to talk with all of you ( even though I wish for more likes than messages ). I am just glad I can talk to more people who understand games instead of somewhere like Twitter or other large social media programs. I know @alek poster said this; but I just want to point this out. May 2018 be better than 2017!

 

[praline]

So are Blue Goku and Blue Vegeta part of the 8 dlc characters or their own thing?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Isn't 9 & 10 included in Legacy Collection 2?

Here's the list

• Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
• Contra ReBirth
• Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord (I've been told it has DLC but screw it)
• Fluidity
• Lit
• NyxQuest:Kindred Spirits
• Pokémon Rumble
• ThruSpace

EDIT: MAYBE I'll buy a Life as a Darklord DLC (one of which is $2) but only one.

 

[Chrono.]

A popularity poll on Dragon Ball characters in Japan came out. Results are kinda funny. https://www.animeranking.net/stat.php?id=34

Top 10 are:
1. Bardock
2. Vegeta
3. Broly
4. Goku
5. Android 18
6. Android 17
6. Gohan (tied with 17)
8. Frieza
9. Paragus (?????)
10. Piccolo
10. Goku Black (tied with Piccolo)

There's some people surprisingly low like Krillin and Bulma. Pilaf is pretty notable for being in dead last with some no name Red Ribbon Army girl.

So are Blue Goku and Blue Vegeta part of the 8 dlc characters or their own thing?

They're in the main roster, so no.

Their DLC is just to unlock them early, but you can unlock them yourself in the game via unspecified requirements.

Also worth noting Amazon has listed 18 of them.

Paragus is Broly’s father.

Also cool. Time to think of my 8 dlc characters I’d want.

Paragus is Broly's father, right? Not exactly a person I'd expect in the top 10.

Bardock being number one is the most surprising thing of all. Toei might as well bring him back in Super for the sake of merchandising if he's that popular.

 

[praline]

So my 8 dlc for FighterZ would be:
1. Bardock
2. Broly
3. Kefla
4. Master Roshi
5. Jiren
6. Toppo
7. Baby
8. Uhh... either Cooler or Janemba

Bardock's popularity has been well noted over there.

It's probably why he has so much supplementary material. From the Episode of Bardock special to Dragon Ball Minus to having a big role in the defunct Dragon Ball Online, which got revised for Xenoverse 2.

Outside of that, they recently gave him Super Saiyan 4 in Heroes, so now he's gone through all SSJ forms minus the God ones.

 

[Knight Dude]

So are Blue Goku and Blue Vegeta part of the 8 dlc characters or their own thing?

No. They are in-game unlockable. You probably have to beat Story mode or hard Arcade mode to get them.

Really? Broly over Gohan, Piccolo AND Frieza? That ain't right. I mean, I know Broly is popular, but not THAT much. Not surprised that Pilaf is dead last, since it didn't seem like he was ever THAT popular.

Also, Paragus is surprising, since Bulma, Krillin, Roshi and Trunks exist. Maybe the love for Broly rubbed off on him. Heh.

Mah boi 17 getting the recognition he deserves.
Caulifla in 14th was a nice surprise.

Guess Esparragos is popular just because he's Broly's dad.

I suppose all of that material would make sense for being one of the most popular characters.

I'm just surprised he hasn't been brought back in Super tbh. He's basically been everywhere except the show at this point.

 

[praline]

Gohan is lower than I expected honestly.

But then again maybe it’s just cause he’s my favourite character.

 

[Knight Dude]

Keep in mind IF the 18 games thing is true some of them could be games we already know exist, or are multi-platform games.

Bayo 3, FE, Mega Man 11, Prime 4, Kirby, Yoshi and even Street Fighter 30th Anniversary could show up during said direct in some fashion. Primarily in a smaller fashion, since they'd mostly be trailers.

Maybe Pokemon too, since X and Y were shown off in January too. But again, I wouldn't expect much in the way of in depth footage. Not that it'd stop people making 2 hour trailer dissection videos.

Paragus is apparently a big meme in Japan/Nico Nico according to the subreddit lol

Truly the greatest of powers, beyond that of any Super Saiyan.

I suppose all of that material would make sense for being one of the most popular characters.

I'm just surprised he hasn't been brought back in Super tbh. He's basically been everywhere except the show at this point.

He works best in small doses though. Or at the very least, separate from the main cast of characters.

 

[Deleted member]

2017 has been a marginal improvement over the previous year in a variety of ways, improving what went on before. Unfortunately, paid online had to be the very first notable thing to go on, but whatever. We finally got Nintendo Switch released and two of the best-reviewed games of the year that launched for it... or decade (so far)? No idea, but one of them is also on Wii U anyways! I've had a decent year myself, once again improving what went wrong before like I said, particularly on the personal side of things. Always good to meet new friends (some of which happen to draw) and nurture my drawing skills.

While I'm not as active as I used to, I look forward to continue posting on here. Even though it's not live for me yet, I hope you have a great new year for those who have already ventured forth into 2010 version 8!

10-Splatoon 2

Pretty much the same for me as well. I'm taking an undetermined break from it as I got burned out from playing it for three months straight since release. I had more fun playing the original game on Wii U.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Hm sounds like this could be a pretty big direct.

If there are 18 games I wonder what they are.

Like Knight Dude said, they could be games that have already been revealed. Aside from what he listed, the only things off the top of my head that could appear include some details on the MMX games and Wolfenstein 2.

 

[Ura]

Happy New Year European peeps. Us living in the Americas are still trapped in the year 2017. We'll try to find a way out as quick as possible.

 

[praline]

I hope in FighterZ for the full game Android 17 is also playable with 18 as his support. Even if he’s just a clone of 18.

 

[Ura]

So there's going to be another Switch Presentation akin to the one from last year?

 

[Chrono.]

So there's going to be another Switch Presentation akin to the one from last year?

Maybe not in the same scale, but a Direct is looking really likely for a variety of reasons.
