Answering what Warioware characters in general I'd like to see in Smash, I'd have to round it off to Mona, Ashley, and Kat/Ana.

Especially Mona.

Mona is awesome. Especially given how many different jobs she get in the series.

Not to mention her awesome trio circus animal pets, like this guy.

Why does it feel like he's staring into my soul?

And why did the models for these pets age poorly?

Maybe because you have the banana he wants.

And they were cheaply made models for WarioWare MegaMicrogames on the Gamecube. Even Pikmin's graphics looked better than them.

Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it. Took me a bit to get it a hold of the game at first too. And I died a lot on the later stages, Propeller Knight in particular.

Though I'm more annoyed that I kept messing up a perfect run on King Knight's stage after new game plus.

WHAT THE HELL
Jaffar looks sweet, Lucius confirmed best healer and Ninian...
"Oh, great! A Dancer I actually lik-- HOLY **** IS SHE USING A DRAGONSTONE!?!?!?"

Now I have to get that Android emulator working because I need this
Disappointed they went with FE7!Karel tho, because FE6!Karel is best Karel

My crap luck was on and...Matthews, Setsunas, Jagens, Oboros, Wrys, Firs...but somehow a 5* Merric blew away my 5.25% chance of getting a 5*...and today, a 5* Rebecca popped up. I just want Nino and Jaffar. Karel would be cool too.

"FEAST, BLADE, FEAST!"

Hopefully the FE6 versions of Karel, Eliwood and Hector can make it into the game someday.

I've heard some complaints about the lack of enemy variety in BotW, and it stuck in the back of my head. . .Then I started to slowly have a realization.

The enemies in BotW were picked quite carefully and deliberately in order to justify their being used, and it would take more than a vague desire for more enemy types for more than the bit we have to be worth adding.

Spoiler: Ah, this got longer than I was expecting

Basically, it's a question of what enemies would actually offer something different or not. Does it use a weapon? Then what does it do differently from a Bokoblin, or if larger, a Moblin? If it doesn't use a weapon, what does it do differently from a Chu-Chu? This is likely why Lizalfos were turned into chameleons, to warrant their still being used when other things could do what they used to without them.

At least in the three games I tried to some extent before this, a lot of enemies either only did damage by touching you and were simply swatted away or puzzles with only one valid solution. Take that away and what basic concepts does that leave you with?

That isn't to say that you couldn't come up with other Zelda enemies to use, like, say, adding a Pols Voice and using your horse whistle or any other loud noise you can scrounge to stun it. But overall it actually seems like it would be quite difficult to think of a large number of enemies with functions unique enough to bother with making unique models instead of just using recolors and Stal variants to save resources and focus on what they have. And that's not even getting into meshing with the environment, which something like a Pols Voice. . .might need a bit of work in order to do.

In many ways Breath of the Wild feels like a base, something that due to trying something new doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet but still has the sensation of utter quality dripping off of it. Usually when I get this feeling it's more looking at the first game of an excellent franchise than with a new entry in an old one. I'm hoping they go somewhere with this base, a new game working off of what this one built up in a. . .hopefully far shorter and less bumpy amount of time would likely add things like more enemies, except with extra time to make them just as meaningful as the ones we have now.

But in the meanwhile? Go put on a hat you bought from some suspicious guy at night and feed a lizard some steaks. Seriously, they went all in as HECK on the quality over quantity thing, I really hope they keep all the features they currently have in terms of interaction with the weapon bearing enemies and add a couple more enemy types with reasons to exist that can hold all the weapons, eat food, and be tricked by hats in the next game, because it's hilarious and awesome and it leaves me wanting more.

Oh, and, uh. . .they may not be classified as monsters, but if they attack you of their own will and set off the enemy encounter song, they're pretty much monsters with a meat drop, so basically consider the wolves to be Wolfos because they pretty much are.

I'd be cool if the next Zelda had like a level based system to it, or like the ability to craft weapons and shields.

You can't be any worse than me.

Mona is the only character I'd be ok with being added from WarioWare as a second character.

 

[Knight Dude]

I kind of like this theme. Not as much as Proof of Courage, but it's cool.

I'm usually a fan of a game using it's main theme in various ways throughout the title. Either that, or using the hero's theme towards the end of the game when most would opt for some really dramatic or villainous theme. Mega Man X2 and Castlevaina 4 are really cool examples of this.

I kept dying on Spector Knight and I just beat him today. god was I happy

Yeah, getting the timing down for his teleports can be a bit tricky at first. I try to take it slower and stay at one side rather than chase him.

yep, thats exactly what I did after dying many many times, I stayed on one side and jumped his attacks the best I could. I beat him with only one hit left on me

Hey, nothing wrong with cutting it close.

Speaking of games I'm not good at, Ultra Street Fighter 4 is fun. Though I am absolutely terrible at it, the only thing I can say is that it's easier to do SRK inputs in it than in CvS2, but everything thing else feels too different to me. I probably need more time in though.

 

[Moydow]

>Lucius voiced by a man.
Sweet relief.

He has a female voice actor in Japanese, though. A bit like Libra in Awakening, but not as deep.

Not that it matters much to me, I would be happy whoever his voice actor was... if I were lucky enough to be able to summon him.

You may hear it questioned whether I am a man. I say the question... is a wrong one.

Those who mock the way others look cause great suffering in the world.

Ah, I see. Still though, that's less surprising considering that Japan uses female voice actors for young males quite a lot.

I wish Libra had a male voice, I just prefer male voices for bishonen/traps by far, especially the deep sexy ones.

I wish it didn't take so long in the Lost Woods to reset when you go the wrong way. Also wtf is with this ****? There's just trees and I get reset no matter which direction I go after reaching the 2 flames.

By my experience, you have to avoid the really foggy parts. There are parts where more mist is around compared to other areas.

 

[Arcadenik]

I really wish Nintendo brought back Deku Mask, Goron Mask, and Zora Mask for Breath of the Wild.

Deku Mask would be useful for traveling across mountains and climbing up mountains.

Goron Mask would be perfect for rolling across the fields and rolling down the mountains. It was my favorite thing to do in Majora's Mask.

Zora Mask would make crossing lakes and rivers easier.

Anyone who is a big fan of Dead or Alive should have seen the secret Peach Beach Splash characters coming.

Ayane from Estival Versus is back along with Marie Rose and Honoka. Yeah, those two are all over the place these days. Just like Yumi.

Nevermind I figured it out.

Weapon crafting-Yes please! Similar to cooking except working at a smithy...

Level-up system-Eh I think its fine as is...you use elixirs and stronger weapons if need be, plus defence upgrades for clothing are a thing...Zelda isn't your typical rpg as is and I could do without grinding for exp...

Of course those two had to be there. As if their blatant over-promotion and appearance in Musou All Stars wasn't bad enough.

Meanwhile, I'm glad to see Ayame return. Poor Kasumi though.

Kat & Ana won. What can I say, they are adorable cuties that proof even kindergartners can be violent.

Now we are doing the one and only Metal Gear Solid to celebrate Snake's inclusion in Smash. And before you Raiden fans complain about him being missing, he kind of got fleshed out in his own spinoff and side story (which means there will be a Revengeance poll soon). For you, your choices are Gray Fox, Revolver Ocelot, Liquid Snake, and Big Boss (even though Smash Snake already has elements of him).

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Off to Discord.

Pie? Where? Can I have some?

Pie is terrible, the only pie is mud pie.

And anyone who says I only have to say this: Let them eat cake.

The only pie I like is apple and I can't seem to tolerate any other flavor.

Blueberry is nice


So is cherry. Also Twitch chat is amazing during Power Rangers marathon. Especially making everyone like Overwatch characters and calling th Rangers liberals because of all the recycling

 

[MF Viewtiful]

People hating on pie on this forum? Holy ****, this is not the type of nonsense I wanna be reading at this hour (or any for that matter).

Now, any real homies here who can appreciate a delicious pie is invited over to my place for some anytime.

Spoiler: Happy PI Day!!!

(yes cheesecake is a pie!)

After past exploits in a laboratory, I've come to learn that you do not trust cakes.

Best way to be in my opinion.

Pie is delicious.

Especially chocolate pudding pie.

 

[Deleted member]

Pie is worse than a Pizza with pineapple AND sardines. There, I said it.

Also, pie is disrespectful to pi.

Well, I attempted to join Serenes Forest but I couldn't figure out how to post pictures, so there goes that.

Oh, it's pi day? Okay. I should have bought this shirt for today then.

I love blueberry pie. I can eat an entire Blueberry pie and accept the consequences.

And because we're talking about pie, I can finally post this.

You guys are making me cry right Noah, I just can't understand how ANYONE could like pie.
