@ TheAnvil TheAnvil knows. He's the biggest balloon fight fan I know, lol.

Who wants to help me develop a joust/balloon fighter clone indie game? Why hasn't that happened yet? Has it?

I like the idea of the character in Smash but in all honesty the game has not aged that well. It was more fun when I was a kid.

Oh, by the way, @Neo Zero , if you're still wondering what the Club Nintendo reward options are, you can see them all here.

(And if anyone wants to look at that and help advise me on how I might spend my last 520 coins that would be much appreciated)

Well, my problem is the only advice I coudl give is don't pick SS.

Now, idk if you can have KI U, but I think this is one you might look for.

Splatoon was a step in the right direction, in my opinion. The game feels like a proper Nintendo game despite being a new franchise. It also feels, pardon the in game pun, fresh. This game is what happens when NoJ lets their young developers make the type of games that they want to. If Miyamoto's comments are anything to go by, we might actually see more of this in the future.

"And so we've had a lot of opportunity to train the staff that we have, and we have a lot of examples of new projects, like the game that we just released, called Splatoon. Splatoon is a very good example because it used to be that I had many different teams that I could go to when I had an idea for a game that I wanted to make, and I would bring that idea and they would make the game. But Splatoon was an example of one of those younger teams coming up with an idea of a game they wanted to make and the senior leadership supporting them in making the game they wanted to make. And so we're at a point where we're starting to see that transition and seeing the benefits from that."

Nintendo subsidiaries in Japan, such as Monolithsoft and Intelligent Systems, are doing fine as is.

Splatoon was a good step, but that was one studio. Dang near all of Nintendo's central Kyoto game development division needs change. And again, I am talking about the centralized teams, namely the EAD teams. Monolith Soft and Intelligent Games are in that sense separate. They're like separate cultures, and they're honestly doing fine (although for some reason everyone in Xenoblade Chronicles X has the same face as Michael Jackson and the story being pretty lacking).

that's not even a spoiler
a spoiler would be saying that like aqua and kamui were the same person all along or something
that's not a spoiler btw

just like talking about gameplay mechanics isn't a spoiler

Has it been announced in a trailer? Is it something I could guess? Actually probably on that second one, knowing the Japanese, but in case you weren't aware, you couldn't pair up Chrom and Lissa in Awakening due to their sibling status. The fact that you're saying they can is potentially giving up a plot point.

EDIT: I suppose the avatar supports with everyone and Chrom didn't, but still.

Yo, Balloon Fight > Most NES games

Lets. Be. Real. Here.

That's probably my favorite NES game. I always have fun when i play it. And this is coming from someone who doesn't play games to have fun.

Why are we still talking about Geno? Can someone, probably @Roger Smith because he knows .gifs so well, post the Mean Girls "fetch" never going to happen quote but with Geno over it? And make like Sakurai saying it. Because that needs to happen right about now...

That was my bad lol, the text I'd typed out mysteriously disappeared and I didn't realize it before posting. It's fixed now though.

The problem is, Geno isn't a name that's going to sell games. If Nintendo don't attempt to buy popular IPs like Banjo-Kazooie and Conker who are part of the canon Mario universe then they aren't going to worry about buying Geno.
Click to expand...
I always forget that Banjo and Conker are a part of the Mario universe.
While Mario is fighting Bowser, Conker is fighting the Great Mighty Poo.

I was thinking of getting into the Harvest Moon series, any particular game you would recommend?

Also, Happy Birthday, Sonic. You've had your ups and downs, but you'll always remain my favorite video game character and franchise.

no, you completely screwed the things :)

Hey gorgoeus is the pun because the whole point of the font is to actually be gorgeous hence its name.

The reaosns I say gorgeous so much is because tbh, that;s kinda the point of the artstyle of Paper Mario, to look good in an attractive way.

There's no pun here :)

Each day I want to avoid FE Fates even more and more. I get that it's optional... but it's honestly kind of weird and completely out of place in a game like FE. It's kinda disturbing honestly.

I was quite different, I really liked Buffy and Angel's relationship, and part of my fear when watching Buffy's first 3 Seasons (because I knew Angel got span off before starting) was that taking such a strong character out of Buffy might dilute it, and having Angel be in a show without Buffy didn't sit right (until I saw Angel obviously). A lot of people hate Angel Season 4 but I actually enjoyed it quite a bit, it was Buffy Season 6 that had a quality dip IMO, I never liked Willow that much so having her be such a strong focus in that season was a little disappointing after how strong the show had been up until then (and after). The only character I actively disliked in either show was Gunn though, he was disloyal, arrogant and selfish.

I always say that if a show can make me sad when a character dies, they're doing something right. When characters in Buffy and Angel die, it was like losing a real person. That's how good those shows are to me. Even Lyndsey. Angel holds the distinction of being the only TV show to ever make me cry, and it did it 3 times. Man tears.

Angel season 5 is one of my favorites seasons of anything in television. The Spike/Angel banter was gold.

Joss' stint writing Astonishing X-Men (the first arc of which were made into a motion comic) was great as well. Wolverine and Cyclops were basically an extension of that Spike/Angel dynamic, and Buffy was always a bit of a Kitty Pryde expy.

Here's (part 1 of) the comic by the way.

I love Season 5 a lot too. It could be the overall best season out of either Buffy or Angel for sure. My only issue with it is the lack of Cordy.

Is there proof of people undressing FE characters yet?

Can I have proof of that?
