Would also like to note that the original 4chan post has Japanese text beside it as if to say it's a Japanese source, yet they call :4bowserjr: by his English name in the screenshots and not his Japanese name.
Actually, the person said they're press assets for E3, an American event.

I think it looks fake as hell otherwise, but this isn't a clue.

My hope for a Smash Switch port would more modes really. The Wii U version was pretty lacking in that regard with it's single player selection. An online lobby system would be nice too. A setup with up to 8 people with the option of 8 player smash would be really ideal or built in rotations even.

lol just heard from my sister that a woman hit a man and a man hit her back and knocked her out. He got charged, she didnt

Fair world, huh?
you're only permitted to use equal force in retaliation to assault in most cases, regardless of intent to harm

its almost like Woman have the right to hit a man but men cant return the favor

When, shocker, Some women NEED to get hit back.
You're implying it was an equivalent exchange of blows. She hit him and he was conscious enough to hit back. He hit her and she went out cold, which can cause long term damage. Abuse is wrong regardless of sex, but this wasn't the guy defending himself. This was excessive force.

How can you not see that?

a hit is a hit. If she laid hands on him and he laid hands on her, thats self defence, no longer is she the victim once she instigates that attack

I guess we all think different, huh?

If the woman hit him repeatedly or had a weapon or was hurting a child/animal, I think the one punch knock out would be supported by court.

But as it stands its blow for blow and one dude apparently hit a lot harder.

Frankly they should both be charged though. One for inciting the violence and one for escalating.

Except the law SPECIFICALLY STATES that doing more damage than was done to you is no longer justified as self-defense. It's criminal excessive force.

It's really not rocket science. Self defense would be doing enough to stop the attack. Excessive force is KNOCKING HER UNCONSCIOUS despite that not having been done to the guy,

Self Defence only gets you so far, the guy isn't the victim when he retaliates with far more force than the woman used.
Both are guilty as Swamp said.

Nobody's saying the woman's innocent, she started the fight so she should get punished too. However, America's laws are dumb and the guy did go too far. If you hit someone and the guy shot you in retaliation, the law would see it as the same situation

Of course there is one angle that could be explored.

What if the one punch knockout was completely accidental? Its entirely possible the guy might not have known his own strength.

If I was defending the guy in court, that would probably be the best option to explore.

They mentioned how Animaniacs being on Netflix is what sparked this idea to bring it back.

If it ends up being a Netflix original series, I think we're golden.

Regarding Fire Emblem Warriors, I'm glad we aren't just going to get a bunch of sword users, I've had enough of it in Heroes. :laugh: Focusing on just three is also fine because there will 100% be a lot of DLC. Hopefully it won't be as pricey as Shadow of Valentia's.... *shivers in digust*. Speaking of which, just beat Act 5 last night.

Overall a solid game, but some glaring flaws. The story is a bit meh and ends up going the typical JRPG "We don't need gods" route, which I like but isn't very interesting here. The "sad" moments of Rudolf, Fernand, and Berkut had my eyes rolling out of my sockets. All assholes that try to kill us and I'm expected to get feels when Alm suddenly sobs. The whole "redemption at their dying breath" is even lazier than redemption through sacrifice. Worst of all is Rinea's complete forgiveness as a spirit for Berkut setting her ablaze for an evil god. Speaking of said god, he too comes to his senses at the end, "Oops I'm evil."

It was really jarring also to enter Rigel's castle after killing the emperor and any sense of atmosphere about what just took place was nonexistent, whether there was some convoluted plan regardless. The battle itself wasn't epic either because Rudolf declares, right next to where you start, that if he dies, the piles of other threatening units must concede. Silque used warp on Alm and with some high ranged units it was over in two or three turns.

The more I think about it, the more pointless and empty a lot of it is--a reflection of the quickly tiresome examination function. Yeah, every so often Alm or Celica will say something kinda sorta amusing, but 99% of the time when you look at supplies, they say "Whoa, that's a lot of supplies." I try not to dare compare any of it to Ace Attorney which oozed with flavor.

That all being said, I enjoyed my time with it. Especially getting to choose between which army I felt like using in the second half. Helped keep the game refreshing which was needed. Class promotion ended up one dimensional rather than adding a layer of customization (outside of the villagers) but at least it had the alternative of weapon based skills, though my usage of them wasn't extensive. Critical hits were the bread and butter of victory for me. Excalibur spells put in soooo much work.

Dungeons unfortunately didn't add anything because enemies were more of a nuisance than anything else, and that was mainly all that was within outside of a large amount of empty boxes and pots. I wouldn't mind seeing more of this kind of experience, but it could definitely be improved. It just felt tacked on in the end. Playing through classic with all the map and underground trash mobs would have stopped me dead in my tracks in terms of enjoyment for me.

The best addition might have been the cogs that turn back time, it didn't completely break the game but prevented an untold amount of annoyance because of mistakes or terrible luck. It was nice to start things from even the beginning to just try a different strategy within seconds. Had some laughs with it as well, there were multiple instances where I'd rewind a single attack because I would miss twice when it was unlikely and get countered without fail just for it to happen five more times until I gave up. I swear that the RNG is rigged somehow... :rotfl:

Much of what I said is negative, but I'm just critical. I don't hate the game at all. But I do definitely need a break before I try to complete Act 6, as short as it may be.

Yes, I actually got 3 Lyns(:laugh:) and a Cordelia.
Wow... I spent the same amount of orbs and didn't get a single Lyn, one of the two I wanted the most, the other being Charlotte. I did get the other two however, Caeda and Cordelia, the former with a +Atk nature and the latter with a -Atk nature. Happy to have not gotten all 3* units like I did with the previous banner regardless. While I wanted a couple grooms, the art is fantastic with all four.

Glad Camus is coming next, have over 20k feathers waiting to max him out right away. Always liked his design in Heroes and enjoyed getting some use out of him as Zeke in SoV. Second favorite cavalry unit next to Mathilda who ended up stealing his Gradivus. <3

Awakening and Fates also had a **** ton of DLC that was overpriced in total. I don't get why people are only NOW complaining tbh
I wasn't around for Awakening and didn't really look into Fates DLC until much later on. I also got the Special Edition of Fates which was already a massive amount of content I still haven't finished.

I feel the burn more now that Echoes is a brand new game. My main issue is the Overclass stuff, it's way too pricey and feels like it should be part of the base game IMO.

Because this is the only one with a Season Pass that happens to cost more than the game itself, which itself is pretty rare.

I just realised something in that Sonic Mania trailer.

Mania is really the true Sonic 4 now. :p

In all seriousness, I think the elevator could actually be a plot point. Maybe like an elevator that travels through time and that's why some of the levels they go to are old ones?

The elevator lacks a Sonic CD button though, which is odd since they just confirmed a stage from it.

They should have added a 4 button with a note saying "out of order."
