Peach is surprised to see so much detail on Mario's shoe.

Blue and Yellow toads? That's not a good sign...

Unless 4 on 4 Tennis is a thing now, they're cheerleaders.

 

[Radical Bones]

Blue and Yellow toads? That's not a good sign...

They're line umpires.

The way they're standing is actually pretty nice attention to detail.

We have some screenshots. Most confirming other characters like Rosalina.

No Pauline yet, before anyone asks.

Yoshi is flying. If there are special moves like in Mario Power Tennis I might just cry with excitement.

WHAT IS THE ACTUAL **** IS THAT CAVALRY CHROM?!

Also, obligatory Opossum tag for whenever he comes back.

Jesus ****ing christ that Chrom scares me
Also, lol M!Morgan stole his grandpa's book

The new update is out for FEH, here we have the stats of the new heroes


Female Morgan is the only one that catch my interest, but I'm saving orbs, not too excited about them. We are getting a Tempest Trial with Grima as a boss, guess we're getting Gerome there. Overall good units, but not enough to make me fall for them.

And with the new update, there are some new stuff. Eirika, Leo and Soren got new refinements:
-Eirika grants attack +4 and I think she also gets the buffs of the unit who is most buffed in 2 spaces during combat. Guess that putting Eirika in a horse emblem for example means you can get a Eirika with +6 in all stats, which is cool.
-Leo looses the gravity effect, now reduces magic damage by 30%, and if his defense is higher than the one attacking, foe can not double. Pretty nice buff.
-Soren's new weapon gives -7 attack to whoever has most attack. The refinement increases his stats if he's close to an ally.

And the new modes are also here. I've yet to do the blessings mode (have to choose carefully who I give the blessings to), but I tried Rival Domains and it's pretty awesome. Having such a big map, looking like FE4 right there. Also using friend units is really cool. Pretty nice update, hope they can keep it up.

>37 Atk Chrom
>+3 with Fury 3
>+5 from Sealed Falchion when not in full HP
>+16 from Sealed Falchion
>+6 from Horse buffs
GODS NO

Geez, he's probably going to be the toughest TT final boss to take out since Veronica if you don't have a Falchion user. Also, IS confirmed a Colorless Dragon is coming out

*Parks Joshua in front of Grima*
I'm sorry, what?

 

[redfeatherraven]

Stop, the drool's getting all over the keyboard.

 

[Deleted member]

Rival Domains is actually pretty fun, and we finally have an use for friends. Too bad my units are all better than my friends' ones lmao. It really feels like a FE game though, and I love it, it's an unique mode that this game was really needing.
Blessed Gardens is good for the rewards, nothing special out of it. Needing to have specific blessings sucks a lot though.

>Arturia Drop Rate Up in FGO

Just 7 more and I'll be able to roll her... Hopefully...

Woah, that looks really strong.

Woah, are those scores the power levels or something? This game looks like something.

To anyone having Pokémon Bank, you can now receive the Alola starters with their Hidden Abilties (Intimidate Incineroar!) as a gift.

 

[Deleted member]

Delayed opening for me, so I can talk more.
This FE conversation is confusing me to be honest, and it seems Opossum changed the title. Why is he not that active anymore, is he busy on something?

Stop, the drool's getting all over the keyboard.

I will wipe your drool off your keyboard. Any other assistance partner?

That is wacky yet I love the gift offering.

 

[mario123007]

Oh it's definitely that.

Real talk, if they could figure something out about that price they'd have a fighting chance at claiming at least some market share. I feel like most of the backers they're getting now are from people who would rather get it at $650 than wait for it to jump in price.

Yeah, at the end of the day, saying GPD WIN 2 will kill Nintendo Switch is bad calmly delusional

Also... For those who are playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Recently finally check Xenoblade reddit Discord group and found some interesting fanart...
Ever seen driver character and blade character swap their outfit? This is going to really awkward.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Only Morag fits....

I made a stupid bingo chart. No images and small text. I planned to add images, but I was too lazy. This bingo will not get a lot of attention, but it is about me!

Spoiler: Bingo

View attachment 138187

Tell me your thoughts on it!

Oh my goodness you are so clever.

This is a bad chart because it doesn't have "Uni and/or Lampy roast Shiny"

\(°|°)/

 

[Bestmand902]

Sorry to take away from Direct discussion, but; Has anyone seen this trailer yet?

Because OH MY GOD THIS LOOKS ADORABLE :D. Pooh looks really off in CGI, though, but the rest of it, just from this brief teaser, seems like it's going to be pretty good. I'm just surprised that Jim Cummings is back as Pooh but no other regulars are back (Jim's not even reprising Tigger I hear) outside of Brad Garrett as Eeyore (He's voiced him before but he's not, like, regularly Eeyore)

Probably gonna bawl my eyes out though because I have the feeling this is gonna be a really sad movie too.

I think everyone tries to roast me, because they love seeing a fourteen year old getting roasted.
Either way, I can not believe I forgot that.

The movie actually does look really good. Christopher Robin all grown-up might tear up some old Winnie the Pooh fans. I never really cared for Winnie the Pooh, but I might take a look at this movie.

[Jojalole]

Opo isn't the only one that can change titles you know? As for where Opo is... Who knows, something might have happened to him. Unless someone knows any other way to contact him, I have no clue what might have happened to him. I'm hoping for the best and that he comes back soon honestly...

Onto the direct stuff... Those Mario Tennis Aces images make me really excited. If we get back to the stuff from GameCube/GBA with special attacks and all that, man it's going to be hype for me. I'm really digging this new Mario Tennis, hopefully they show even more on the direct. This 10 hours until the direct are going to feel reaaaaally long...

I am worried for Opossum as well. I hope he is on some kind of vacation, having a blast without having to go on SmashBoards.
Opossum come back, I miss you!!!

I know, right? Mario has some nice shoes and the game looks fresh. I am especially excited for "YOU WON THIS HOLE!".

\(°|°)/

Oh, right! I dunno how I forgot to mention that. He looks like he's going to be good in the movie, and I do really like Ewan McGregor as an actor.

Oh, and funny story; I forgot "Goodbye Christopher Robin" Already came out, so I thought this was that movie but under a different name. How wrong I was XD.

 

[Deleted member]

Opossum come back, I miss you!!!

Opo has life outside of this website Shiny. I could learn from him
And I'm sure he's not dead, he's just pretending. His species is known for doing that

\(°|°)/

I hope he is having a blast in a vacation area where he loves it.

Spoiler: HANDSOME

You're constantly tagging hin, it makes you look like you're pestering him. It's not gonna make him return, it's probably just gonna annoy him when/if he does.
It's pointless

You also forgot "Shiny accidentaly roasts someone by giving a genuine response."

Sorry, I hope he does not get it like that way. He does not like it when I tag other users, but I want him to see it, but I should not do that. BAD ME.

Dang it, forgot that one too.

 

[Delzethin]

So, Direct hype? I spent part of yesterday and overnight putting this together:

Another crack-of-dawn update! A bingo sheet for the Direct, using an old @AllSourceGaming template!

[Holder of the Heel]

Damn I hope the FEH update doesn't take several days to come up for iOS users like myself...

Think I've decided in the mean time to skip out on the upcoming banner though, I'm low. Tempest Trials + new modes and a confirmed banner for next month that I can skip as well will hopefully make up for my bad pulling habits.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Datamine shows that Odin gets his own Warriors map instead of Owain in FEH.

Spoiler

RIP those who thought Owain was basically confirmed to show up as his Awakening self. Also, lol at IS not caring about spoilers again.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Blue and Yellow toads? That's not a good sign...

Those are probably to ones standing outside the court like all Mario tennis games, nothing to even worry about and even if they have a racket in their hands, whats the problem?

Late, I know, I just woke up

 

[praline]

I don’t get how Morgan has purple hair. Who’s the mother/father then?

I hope this means that he won’t just be a clone of Ryoma/Nevarre.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

I hope this means that he won’t just be a clone of Ryoma/Nevarre.

I think this just means Owain won't get in Heroes for the moment because a lot of people assumed he would due to the Warriors maps.

For Warriors... I really can't say. I'm hoping he's at least more stylish.

So minor direct leak:

Nintendo sexualization is getting absurd



I can't believe they put Mario in a boob-and-butt pose.

I was gonna say he was already in but I realized it’s only his Odin version that is.

 

[mario123007]

And that made gaming news media go crazy.... What a world we live in.

I would also like to mention that despite there is a huge chance we will see the DLC rare Blade in this Direct. Wouldn't it be great if they actually have a contest where people can submit their own rare blade design and they eventually pick the finalist and let us vote? I know that's definitely a long shot but I really hope this can happen.

 

[Schnee117]

I hope this means that he won’t just be a clone of Ryoma/Nevarre.

Navarre's a Lyn clone.
Owain's a Ryoma clone based off of the stuff he does as an NPC being the same stuff as Ryoma.
If there's a unique character it's most likely Olivia because of her Dancer stuff.
Tharja might be unique but I doubt it. She's either a clone of Robin or Linde.

 

[Rocket Raccoon]

Unique Specials in Mario Tennis is something I've wanted for a long time. Thank God it's coming back. Just that mechanic alone makes me want to buy it.
