Yeah, but I feel Jill's a lower priority on Resi characters considering she had tk be DLC as a completely reworked character last time

Maybe, but for the hypothetical Nintendo vs Capcom, we should use the best version of each character. As in RE:Re Jill and Prime series Samus(design wise at least).

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Well, we can call her Cauli for short

Yes http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Caulifla

Tbh I thought the Saiyan on today's episode and FemBroly were different characters.

I was under the impression that was the case too, but I guess not.

I just saw the title. Is the Rabbids/Mario RPG confirmed? If it is I'm cutting Rayman's limbs off

He has no limbs, you would have to steal his hands or feet instead.

Look at all that artificial scarcity.

Surely there aren't enough systems to fly off the shelves. Nintendo's supply must be second class. I guess we need to air our grievances. This isn't rocket science, after all.

GameXPlain opened up the rumor mill again and Andre apparently has evidence that it exists. No hard confirmation.

Wow, would you look at all those quests in heroes! We got three sets to work through. :D

Though I'm miffed they brought back the 10th Stratum quests only to reduce the rewards to just one orb each.

I mean, I'm going to do them all anyway, but still.

Reading the comments for any video covering the Rabbids crossover is great for a laugh. xD

You could probably start a potato chip factory with all the salt in them mines.

At least I'd have to guess. For all the groans it gets on normal places the reaction on YouTube must be hysterical.

So they're helping to destroy the environment, but who cares if people get their game console that plays ports from an older game console faster. SMH

Whhhheeeeew this wasn't the post I was expecting to see in a thread about an extra shipment of Switches having been sent out in March by air. The posts of people thinking they're smarter than a corporation because of hindsight or complaining about unrelated things they don't like about the Switch are pretty predictable, but this is new even for NeoGAF.

Well, the salt that isn't directed towards the prospect of the game is mostly aimed at Emily Rogers. Because people still treat leakers as gospel until they get one thing wrong and become toxic, until they get something else right and become gospel again. No one seems to learn to see that kind of stuff in a grey area, treating it as nothing more than a possibility, and it's really to their detriment.

But yeah, most aren't big on the game. Can't say I am either, but like a relatively normal person I just skip what doesn't interest me... energy spent railing against something I don't have any obligation to buy is energy truly wasted.

Someone whined that they couldn't play Persona 5 because he couldn't accept the gane was fictional

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Here's my (horrified) rebuttal to those ideas:

Are you saying the internet wouldn't burn if those were announced? Assuming Retro was making the former ofc.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

...WAIT. You meant as a "Retro making DKCR3 instead of a new Metroid". My bad. Yeah, I'd feel kicked down a little by that but eh. And the only reason Bayonetta 1 outsold the sequel before the PC port was because the Wii U port was included in most copies of 2. Speaks how much the people who whined about Bayonetta 2 being exclusive really cared

If there's one thing I've learned of human nature in my years online, it's that some people will find any possible reason to feel better than everyone else.

 

[Coricus]

You know what would light an even bigger bonfire? If Retro's next project wasn't Metroid OR DK. If Smash speculation is any indication the DK fandom is about on par with the Metroid one in terms of reactions to not getting what they want.

And considering what Retro's said a long time ago about their next project not being anything they'd worked on before. . .

 

[Delzethin]

Donkey Kong Country Returns 3

Parts of the internet would go "How dare this not be Metroid!" and break out the torches and pitchforks, but honestly, I wouldn't mind this. Retro has shown they know how to make a good DK game, to the point where Tropical Freeze might be one of the greatest 2D platformers ever made. If it turns out they're giving the big ape one more go, I'd be all for it.

Maybe people would get on board more easily if the Kremlings were the bad guys. Relevance for K. Rool, and all.

Smash port with nothing new

That, however, would really take the wind out of my sails.

 

[N3ON]

That's kind of tangential to whether the internet will react adversely to something though. You'd have to be deep in the Nintendo echo chamber to be oblivious to the reaction to the Bayo2 announcement.

Speaks how much the people who whined about Bayonetta 2 being exclusive really cared

Heh? I'm thinking the reason Bayo 1 sold more is because the 360 and PS3's combined install base was in excess of ten times that of the Wii U. Also even excluding the Wii U and PC ports, Bayo 1 has sold more than Bayo 2... so I'm not quite sure what you're on about.

I don't know, I don't think it being neither would inherently result in rage. It depends what it was. Most people, from my understanding, don't want them to make another DKC game atm. And, yes, there would be those upset that it wasn't Metroid... but if the project looked engaging enough, I think the backlash would be mitigated.

Especially since it's not like Retro is the only dev that could work on Metroid.

Mmm, the Kremlings would help, but framing it that way is kind of a Smash-centric perspective. I think most would view the game simply as itself, and the demand for another DKC just isn't there right now. I'm sure it would be a quality title, but even the reaction to TF was pretty apathetic. And given that Retro's output is so rare, the apathy will turn aggressive eventually should people feel denied what they want.

Bayo 2 had better launch sales at the very least compared to the first game

I'd take Mario & Sonic at the FIFA World Cup if it had one of those football drama campaign modes like the recent FIFA games, but it's with Mario and Sonic characters.

Also, we already have Sticker Star 2.

I'm feeling confused and disappointed in myself right now.

The way everyone talks, 150cc is an absolute baby mode in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I've been trying to beat 150cc Grand Prix and I feel like I'm bashing my head against a brick wall.

It took me a couple of days just to get the second cup done with. I've been at the third cup for HOURS and I can't even win the THIRD course. It's not that I can't pull ahead of the NPCs, although I'm clearly not doing nearly as good of a job as I clearly should be considering the anecdotes. It's that I keep getting sniped by items within a range of the finish line that I can't recover, sometimes right before I pass it. Over and over and OVER again.

I don't even understand what it is I'm doing wrong, but clearly I must be doing something wrong because everyone else has such an easy time with it.

I feel like such an idiot right now. This isn't even the hardest mode available.

Corry dear, those are the competitive crowd, you shouldn't listen to them
Although, after looking it up, you can outrun Red AND Blue shells in 200cc if you have a speed boost. Holy ****

Welcome to Mario Kart 8, we hope you enjoy your stay. We've got it all - gangsta plumbers in green, amazon cosmic deities in tight racing suits because that **** prints money, characters that don't know what they're doing in Mario world, characters that REALLY shouldn't be here, and most importantly, a meta game dictated not by skill but by dumb luck. Competitive nerds get BTFO.

Seriously though, I had trouble with the later 150cc Grand Prix cups in the Wii U version. Partly because I was using characters I don't normally use to unlock Miiverse stamps. The game is heavily luck based and the A.I rubber bands (anyone who says they're always way ahead of the CPU in higher difficulties is lying, they're actually programmed to always be on your tail). Better get used to being screwed over at the last second because it will happen all of the time.

I clicked this topic thinking it was just a joke but someone actually made a 5-chapter(6th yet to come) analysis on why Haitaka is the best Fates character and it's actually really good(and right)
https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/204443-fire-emblem-echoes-shadows-of-valentia/75294267
Dunno why it's on the Echoes board tho

This also reminds me of the fact Oboro has Rally Defense in FEH and if that wasn't supposed to be a reference to him, then I don't know what it was

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

The court ruled against Nintendo the first time, saying that "MariCar" is not a commonly used abbreviation for Mario Kart. Nintendo has challenged it, and dunno how the new one is going.

(Funny thing about the renting costumes bit. They actually got away with that as the one renting costumes was not MariCar, but a shop next door. )

Why in the fresh hell would they rule against Nintendo in this case?

It helps to remember that Japan is very loose when it comes to copyright. Japan is a country where you can actually sell fan art and fan games for profit - that's basically what the doujin market is. That's a primary income source for a lot of young artists.

oh,I do remeber a doujin artist I read one said If his doujis arent stopped being put online without his permission, he would stop doing them. He seemed to be pretty pissed his stuff was just being posted everywhere. dunno if that worked out for him or not

 

[Aetheri]

I wouldn't be particularly upset if Retro's working on another DKC instead of a Metroid, admittedly I'd be disappointed but that's to be expected as I am more of a Metroid fan than a Donkey Kong fan, but seeing as there's never been any confirmation on what Retro's been working on (apart from a few vague tweets that could very well mean absolutely nothing)...and Tropical Freeze is a really great game...

But I wouldn't want to see people **** on this new game of their's simply because it's not Metroid...Yes metroid's been on a bit of a drought with only a minor spin-off to hold us over, and Prime 3 has left us with a cliffhanger, but we really shouldn't have any expectations from Retro Studios regarding their new project...

It is a little upsetting that we still haven't any news about what they are working on however...
