I remember when Grand Dad was just an obscure internet meme.

It's crazy how DC Comics saw potential in it and franchised it. That's an even more inspiring success story than One-Punch Man right there.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I really hope tomorrow's ARMS Direct won't mess with my "BIG News for ARMS" square for my E3 Bingo sheet.

Still excited for it though.

 

[Mythra]

They also embraced the memes.

“[Your Name] the Hedgehog” enthusiasts, rejoice! Bring your Sanic OC to life on Sega’s new platformer, Sonic Forces. https://t.co/WftLMrz00i

What a time to be alive.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

So Wonder Woman's review embargo is going up a day before the movie comes out, False alarm, common practice for the DCEU.



Wait that's bad

 

[Baskerville]

I think the time for an ARMS demo would be perfect.
And this avatar is cool af.

Did wonders for Splatoon.

PLEASE NINTENDO! Do it!

That's common for WB in general. And it's temporary

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Just found out more about the Sonic Character Customizer. I love customization, so this should be fun overall.

Logan embargoes went up like a month before the movie came out. Last day embargoes show a lack of confidence in the product, which is why everyone feared the worst when Bethesda did their stupid new policy starting with DOOM
And how is it temporary? Either an embargo goes up or it doesn't

Logan is the exception, not the rule. Fox did that with Apocalypse and it hurt the movie. The embargo can be lifted earlier than the current date of the 30th, which is a few days before the movie comes out.

Speaking of DCEU, Robert Zemeckis is the frontrunner for the Flash movie according to the Wrap

Holy ****.
Flashpoint pls.

 

[Bestmand902]

Holy ****.
Flashpoint pls.

Might be a bit too soon for Flashpoint IMO.

 

[Robertman2]

Holy ****.
Flashpoint pls.

Flash goes back in time and makes out with his mom.

Might be a bit too soon for Flashpoint IMO.

Not if Justice League sucks

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

for anyone that wants to try out Disgaea 5 on switch, the demo is out today

 

[Schnee117]

Might be a bit too soon for Flashpoint IMO.

The sooner they fix the **** from Snyder's stuff and Suicide Squad the better

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Might be a bit too soon for Flashpoint IMO.

Too soon for a Justice League movie too

Holy ****.
Flashpoint pls.

The movie consists of Barry sticking his **** in the timeline and causing a paradox in which Batman VS Superman is actually a good movie and he pulls a Doctor Manhattan, permanently retconning all the stupid ****
Speaking of Flash I saw last week's episode this morning. That episode pissed me off

 

[Bestmand902]

Too soon for a Justice League movie too

My point exactly. They shouldn't do too many big stories so soon. Flashpoint should come later (Even if it would erase SS and BVS from continuity, which Thank god)

 

[JamesDNaux]

I just caught up with the news.

So Sega is deviantArt now.


Well at least there's Mania.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

My point exactly. They shouldn't do too many big stories so soon. Flashpoint should come later (Even if it would erase SS and BVS from continuity, which Thank god)

No, if Flashpoint erases those, then it means it'd be a DCEU Rebirth, and I don't think there'd be any complaints anywhere. Except for poor Ben Affleck who only went against his 'no superheroes' rule because it's Batman and doesn't want to be Batsy anymore

 

[Mythra]

So the Direct will cover ARMS, a bit of Splatoon and nothing else?

Honestly I'd prefer if they took on Rebirth as well. It'd be a hell of an improvement over whatever the hell's going on at WB's DC movie department. Really just enforces the rule that DC's better at animation and Marvel's better at movies

 

[Schnee117]

Obviously there'll be a Smash Bros trailer showing Spring-Man joining the fight

 

[Yellowlord]

Obviously there'll be a Smash Bros trailer showing Spring-Man joining the fight

If that happened, I'd both be happy and crazy at the same time... happy because I know there will be a port or new game of Smash, and crazy because I'm not sure I'd favor Spring Man being in Smash yet, at least not until his game is out and he's had time to really appeal to players. As always though, that's just my opinion.

 

[Delzethin]

Most likely. This seems like one of those mini-Directs dedicated to one game or franchise.

Speaking of which, I'm surprised we haven't had any Pokémon news yet.

 

[praline]

Man I wish you could buy those big emblem things in Heroes either with real money or orbs or feathers or something.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I just texted a friend
"YO YOU CAN FINALLY HAVE EDGY THE HEDGY IN A SONIC GAME"
He replied this
"It's the middle of the night you ****tard"

 

[Mythra]

Inb4 it actually happens.

Most likely. This seems like one of those mini-Directs dedicated to one game or franchise.

GF likes to have separate videos or directs for their announcements, so them putting a segment to steal the show in this Direct is unlikely.
I'll still consider the possibility of Sudden Pokémon to fill my bingo tho.

 

[Z25]

What's up with Shaggy's beard and mustache?
And... did... did they... did they turn Velma into a loli? ...why...?

Hm maybe?

Spoiler

I wouldn't say loli, but she'd definitely shorter then usual.

Oh yeah, I remember that. Everyone always talks about how weird the gang is, especially Shaggy... Which they are, but no one ever seems to mention that Scooby looks like he's been gifted with advanced german engineering.

At least the others make sense, especially hipster Shaggy, he is a stoner after all.

That's because Scooby technically is. It's not german ( I think) but he is gentically engineered. The story doesn't have the group knowing each other. Shaggy is a world renowned dog trainer and this company that velma is a head scientist at hire shaggy. They want him to train their super engineered dogs to be used as weapons. Scooby is one of them but the weakest. Shaggy saves him from being killed by the others and a bond is formed.

Daphne works for the washington times, and I don't know what fred does.

It's very strange but kind of neat.

So the Direct will cover ARMS, a bit of Splatoon and nothing else?

We figured that the direct coming had to be focused on one game, so this makes sense.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

god I really want happy home designer on switch

 

[Aetheri]

That moment when you're watching a video about Metroid and you see a piece of your fanart in the video....

Actually this kind of happens often...

 

[Delzethin]

Hey now, I'm not expecting any news from this particular Direct. I know TPC likes to announce stuff on their own terms, I'm just surprised they haven't revealed anything yet. May is usually big for them.

Hey, does anyone else hear a piano?

 

[Robertman2]

Sam Raimi has been added to the Flash shortlist per the Wrap again.

ahhhhhhh

 

[Wario Bros.]

I'm very curious what the ARMS Direct will have outside of new fighters and stages.

 

[Deleted member]

Holy **** Alucard go eat a ****ing **** jesus ****ing christ **** you and **** Iggy I hope you both ****ing die painfully

That's like when I'm browsing 4chan and see my screenshots from games posted around, mainly of Rosalina. Also that one render I made that people seem to like and keep spreading around.

Or that one time there was a video on YouTube about how hot Rosalina is and someone used a screenshot from a video of mine.

Closest I've seen, or heard, in my case, is when somebody was playing Quest 64 via a LP, they quoted many of my GameFAQs posts.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Maybe you need to explain what exactly you're talking about.

 

[Erureido]

I still felt kinda bad that he got swatted tho.

Wait, that actually happened? When did he get swatted?

I haven't been keenly following Etika for quite some time aside from his live reaction to the last Direct, so this is new information to me.

 

[Aurane]

Maybe you need to explain what exactly you're talking about.

"Need" is relative.

 

[Deleted member]

I remember someone on the IGN forums once quoting a post from another forum I'm on, which just so happened to be quoting one of my posts.
