Groot confirmed to be part of Rocket's moveset.

Quick, which roster leak mentioned that Groot was part of Rocket's moveset again?

Oh **** man, GF just revealed a new Pokemon for SM

If by America you mean the US and not the entirety of North America + South America, since I think this is US exclusive, a LOT more than 90% of the US has access to a GameStop.

I'm talking about America as in the whole continent, obviously.
And it's not "US exclusive" when both Japan and Europe already got it, and the entirety of America uses the same region locking

Nintendo Have Filed A Trademark For A Bowser Spin-Off Game https://t.co/azkkViSvkM pic.twitter.com/xOiTGLlKAh

— My Nintendo News (@MyNintendoNews) May 5, 2017

I posted about this yesterday, but this article is speculation.

Nintendo trademarking that doesn't mean Bowser is getting a game at all, but that they either are doing it "just in case", or they plan to use "Koopa" as branding for something (could be a game, or it could just be merchandise).

While him getting a game is a possibility, it's not at all a guarantee. Nintendo filed a trademark for "Rosetta" (Rosalina's Japanese name) back in 2007 but she hasn't received her own game either, or even any merchandise with her own branding.

If I had to guess what it's for, it probably has something to do with that Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga remake and it's new side game.

 

[Knight Dude]

I'm looking forward to Starfire and Sub-Zero. Red Hood is alright I guess, but I was never confident in his potential moveset wise, even though I like the character enough.

Sub-Zero's one of my ride or die ****** though.

 

[ChikoLad]

I just found out about a piece of Rosalina merch I had never heard of before. Gonna have to hunt it down.

Wish it was Biker Rosalina but it's still cool.

"Well, there's only 3 days left of the Hero Fest Focus event, thus 3 more days for a better chance to get Takumi"

*Buys some orbs necessary for another summoning, goes to the Hero Fest banner, begins a summoning, and sees two silver orbs.*

"Looks like another chance to get Takumi! I really hope the money I spent doesn't go to waste."

*Does first summon on the top orb and gets a 3-star Palla.* "OK, whatever."

*Does the first silver orb orb summon. Altar does the epic smoke effect, and the screen turns white*

*Cutscene plays of familiar grey hair swooshing to the side as a familiar pair of brown eyes open...*

Spoiler: The shocking summon, and the reaction

I FINALLY GOT TAKUMI!

Here was my reaction as summed up in three pictures:

1) The moment Takumi's summoning cutscene began:

2) Me from the moment after Takumi's summoning cutscene until the stars above Takumi's name appeared:

^Unlike Bonnie in this picture, I was screaming out of joy for a good minute.

3) Me for about a good 5 minutes after the Takumi summoning cutscene played:

Three months. It took me THREE MONTHS to finally get my favorite Fire Emblem character. You don't know how happy I am a finally summoned Takumi!

I don't care if Takumi already has several counters. He is going on my team regardless. In fact, I already started training him up, and he is currently level 31. I grinded up my Lon'qu as well and used him to give Takumi Vantage 3, so now Takumi has the tools necessary to become the destructive unit that he is. I just need to get him to Level 40, then grind up some SP for him, and he will be all set.

Here were the other characters summoned for those that are curious:

I already have a 4-star Sully and Fir, as well as 3-star+ Palla. Wrys? Eh, don't really care for him.

Today is literally my happiest day of the year so far!

I see, take your time, and don't worry, the episode 18 teaser didn't spoil anything from the last episode.
I am just excited that Constanze finally gets a spotlight, I guess.

Considering nutritional and training differences, do you think a typical UFC fighter of today could beat the best H2H soldier Sparta could put out?

Realistically speaking, yeah, most likely.

Beat Specter of Torment today. 'Twas pretty good.

You know what 'twas not pretty good though? Horace. **** that guy. **** him and his stupid race minigame. I dislike him strongly, as well as his minigame. Major disdain for both entities.

 

[Arcanir]

In other news, Ever Oasis still exists.

It may fall into obscurity, but I'm still picking this game up as it looks like it'll be a fun little RPG. I hope it'll do at least decently well, but unless Nintendo picks up with pushing it I'm sadly not expecting it.

Quick, which roster leak mentioned that Groot was part of Rocket's moveset again?

Here you go!

Spoiler: Part 1

Characters that I can confirm that are in:
Hunter (from Monster Hunter)

Rathalos (though I will admit that this one is shaky because they might've nixed it to only be in the Hunter's moveset for a Hyper because Giants might be done away with as playable, and Rathalos was planned to be part of the Hyper regardless)

Strider Hiryu

Leon Kennedy

Jedah

Nathan Spencer

Captain Commando

Spider-Man

Doctor Octopus

Venom

Songbird

Ms. Marvel

Ant-Man

Rocket (but Groot is now part of his moveset)

Black Panther

Doctor Strange

X-Men characters will be in, but might actually not be DLC.
Before you freak out, there's an asterisk by this, and that "only if the game gets delayed from its 2017 release date". Otherwise, they're DLC.
Don't get your hopes up too much, but don't lose it either.
Doctor Doom, Silver Surfer, and Super-Skrull are also in, but will be DLC as far as I've heard.

On the Capcom side of things, Captain Commando might be DLC and not a launch character.
The thing with him is that he might be moved to being DLC but is undecided as far as I heard.
GnG is seemingly getting a rep from what I know too.
But I am not in the exact know as to who, or if they'll be a launch character or DLC. Sorry.
I just know it's getting one.
As for the character itself, I don't see how it'd be anyone other than Arthur or Firebrand.
But I do suppose there is always the chance of them using Astaroth.
Regardless, be prepared for GnG getting a rep.

And don't bug me and ask me to know the rest of the roster. I only know what I know.
Hopefully this will tide you over.

Spoiler: Part 2

With that said I got some new information. Deny it if you want. Matters not to me.
While this is not a mass of information. I'll go right in.

First, and I feel like it's fairly obvious at this point, MvCI is still going dark until E3.
Then will be "reintroduced" there with revamped visuals in the art direction to some extent.
It might have also been a conscious decision to wait until E3 because I heard that they may be using X-Men characters in the next cinematic trailer and reveals on (but they're supposedly going to reveal quite a few characters across both Marvel and Capcom's sides throughout the summer at E3, EVO, and SDCC).

Though, if that X-Men thing is in fact happening in the summer and they are in the base roster for sure now, it might be held off until EVO or SDCC for that bombshell to be dropped, instead of at E3 because of the FGC's connection with X-Men characters in MvC games.

If you ask me "why don't you know for sure if X-Men are in the base roster?"
Because that's a secret being kept quite close to the heart.
And Capcom outsources cinematic trailers. As well as some characters.
Mega Man X and Hunter (including Rathalos) were done by a Malaysian team for instance.
Capcom outsourced to the same team for SFV.
I'm not sure if the X-Men are being done by them, in-house, or independent modelers.
They're trying real hard to keep this under wraps, but it's too big for them to contain for obvious reasons.

And while it's not too much I suppose.
I can confirm Dante and Frank West.
Not much of a surprise there, but you can rest easy or whatever now if you were worried about them for some reason.

However, a quick note for this rumor is that Ryce (who has some behind the scenes information himself) over at NeoGAF has been given information that conflicts with this, so some of this may be wrong or outdated by this point.

I really hated that minigame at forst, but after you try it more times and start to git gud, it's really fun.
It's essentially the ultimate test of Specter Knight's movement

I honestly don't really remember most of the kirby soundtracks except the ones that repeat from game to game.

I'm going to vote Kirby 64 due to nostalgia with the soundtrack but it's not necessarily superior. I remember it being kind of basic, not really in a bad way though

Will MvCI have an actual plot though like MvC3 (kinda) did?

I'm talking about America as in the whole continent, obviously.
And it's not "US exclusive" when both Japan and Europe already got it, and the entirety of America uses the same region locking

Either way you're still wrong, since the US counts for a lot more than 10% of America.

North America and South America are two separate continents. Central America is part of North America.

India is a subcontinent.

Wikipedia says it's a subcontinent... in Portuguese
In the English page, it says it's a continent.
BUT, the "Continent" page mentions NA, SA and CA as subcontinents.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent#Subcontinents

Either way you're still wrong, since the US counts for a lot more than 10% of America.

Umm...North and South America are continents.
