NintenZone Social Thread: Shovel Knight Amiibo Hype Catastrophe (feat. Swamp)

[Strofirko]

So lloyd irving deconfirmed.

 

[epicmartin7]

Well, this practically means Yooka-Laylee is probably getting a physical release as they've signed a deal with a new publisher. Although it's mainly for marketing.

That Lloyd costme looks good. :D

 

[LIQUID12A]

Considering she's the only "indie" character (which lets be honest she's not even indie due to her first game being on the GBC and licensed by Capcom), people are gonna ride that wave high. Rayman is a perfect example of this as well.

Atleast it's not like Shovel Knight

Rayman, to be fair, has popularity that extends beyond his bandwagon for Smash, has a longer legacy(his 20th anniversary is this September), and isn't an indie.

that doesn't really count
status quo isn't god, and now wayforward is entirely their own thing
indies can become not-indie (minecraft), and not-indies can become indie (this or giana sisters)

 

[DoodleDuck97]

The quality of life things are. The dream killing Mii costumes and the two unviable stages aren't

Jolly Good. Never buy the Mii Costumes anyway seeing how you can't use them Online bar Friends.
Might make an exception for K Rool to show support. And might buy the Flying Man so I can have his own kind attack him.
The new stages though. I will need to buy the stages though.

 

[powerprotoman]

id like to remind everyone the ballot isnt over nothing shown here(the mii fighter costumes) has anything to do with the ballot because that requires the ballot to be over

calling it now we wont get any characters untill after the ballot

 

[CroonerMike]

The aspect ratio is wrong for Hyrule, Peach and Dr. Mario, but it's correct for Dream, Suzaku and Miiverse. I don't really know how to explain it more clearly, but the supposed 1.0.10 stages don't fit with the corresponding pictures at all, while the 1.0.8 stages do.

OH I GET IT NOW D: lol

 

[powerprotoman]

also "you cant use mii fighters online except with friends" allow me to put you into a state known as
BTFO or "BLOWN THE **** OUT"

please note the 2 mii sword fighter icons

 

[Solfiner]

I have a new idea for a game mode

5 mii fighters in flying men costumes protect Ness against one enemy

special smash, everyone on team flying man has very little stamina

If Ness dies you lose, if the enemy dies you win.



...I would try this if I had enough friends.

 

[WeirdJoe27]

wait how is peaches castle unviable? its not banned in smash 64

That's what I was wondering. How can Castle Siege, Delfino Plaza, Duck Hunt and Halberd be legal but not Peach's Castle? Halberd and Duck Hunt have weird stage hazards and Castle Siege and Delfino Plazo change to not have any drop zones at times. I never understood how tourney stages were determined.

Duck Hunt, Castle Siege and Delfino's hazards don't physically damage you.

Do we know if Tournament Mode will even be an online mode? If it is, I could see them putting a rule that Custom characters can only be used in Tournament Mode with Friends.

Duck Hunt, Castle Siege and Delfino's hazards don't physically damage you.

How about Halberd? And what hazards are in Peach's Castle that damage you?

 

[LIQUID12A]

Try not to double post next time.

Halberd's hazards are telegraphed as hell. Peach's Castle I can't explain.

yes we know its an online mode they said it in the last smash direct

I know, I didn't realize no one had posted since my last post. The mods need to add a "Delete Post" feature. Every other forum I'm a part of has it and, on the off chance I double-post, I can copy and paste and then delete. But I digress......

I know the hazards are telegraphed and easy to avoid, but they're still there and still do damage. I'll be curious to see if Peach's Castle becomes a tourney stage and if not, how the decision is made.

yes we know its an online mode they said it in the last smash direct

I could see it having various options attached to it like all the other online modes. I doubt you'll be able to use Custom Fighters with random people, Nintendo has been pretty clear about that stance. I don't agree, but that's what Nintendo has said.

 

[powerprotoman]

well in the mii related news there will be FOUR HUNDRED animal crossing amiibo cards....thats FOUR HUNDRED minigames for animal crossing amiibo festivale

You can likely set rules as to whether or not customs are allowed for your specific tourney.

If you just do the copy-paste and leave the double post with a "double post, delete this/ignore this/etc." thing on it a mod can come along and get rid of the double post, no harm no foul.

There is a reason that only mods have the ability to delete posts -- it's not just an oversight -- though my memory is failing me at the moment as to what that reason is. It might just be for the sake of keeping records so nobody can do something bad and just get rid of the post.

 

[WeirdJoe27]

I guess we'll find out how it all works later today.

This is the local tournament mode, tourney mode works similar to MK8's tournaments iirc

 

[WeirdJoe27]

If that's true (the MK8 part), that's very disappointing. I'm guessing the mode probably won't get much use if that's the case.

Also, changing the subject, I just came across this video that shows a custom stage for Project M. It's a recreation of the "leaked" Dr. Mario stage for Smash 4. Looks pretty cool in action.

Rayman isn't indie. In fact his series has outsold Megaman, Street Fighter and MGS (26m solo, + 14m in his Rabbids series).

 

[Champ Gold]

I never said Rayman was indie. Shantae is mostly what I was arguing on how if she was indie or not.

I meant in comparison between the two in their popularity for Smash reps and how their fans are but Rayman's was justified due to his trophy and that fake leak from Artsy Omni

 

[Burb]

I think the point was more that Rayman is to third parties what Shantae is to indies, disregarding their respective chances of actually getting in.

 

[egaddmario]

Y'know, as cool as the costumes are, i'd love something like this- the ability to use Miis online. I think it'd help to see the costumes. Something like being able to use them in For Glory. And while we're at it, might as well have an option to get rid of the Mii's face- If i buy the Flying Man or K. Rool costume, i'd want that character to look as good as possible. And y'know, maybe some unique aspect per costume, like how Flying Man glides on the 3DS or how K. Rool throws his crown. Fans would be pleased.

So recap: ability to use online, get rid of the Mii's face, unique character traits and moves. Hey, that sounds like a great idea! Almost like a fully fleshed out charact-oh...

 

[Luigi The President]

...So is the update out in Japan?

Because this is the most confusing night of Smash so far. I just got up.

I'd give it a few more hours.

So no surprises?

Just 3 Mii costumes.

Absolute bummer.

Using the Miis online would be amazing.

Customs moves could also be possible if they pull it off correctly.

What if the leak actually was made in M just photoshopped with smash 4 dr. mario?

 

[WeirdJoe27]

It's technically now the 31st in Japan, but I'm not sure when Nintendo will update the game. I'm thinking around 8 or 9 AM there, perhaps?

 

[Tree Gelbman]

It's just 12:16 am over there.

 

[epicmartin7]

Nintendo usually releases updates worldwide. So I assume the update will probably release sometime late tonight. Unless they accidently release the update early again XD.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

Why does this exist?

Slowpoke here but may as well
Latino -50
Female -50
Straight +20 (i used to think I was asexual but apparently not)
CIS +20
United States +20
Christian +5 (I think they list Jewish as +25 because they hate Israel or something idk why though that's awfully anti Semitic I'd think)
Middle class 0
Attractive face +10 but at the same time Overweight -10 so total 0 there
Social Autist (ADD) -20
Tech career +5
Normal height 0
total -50

Well then.

also I find it pointless to put "blind" on this list cause you won't be able to read it anyway and I don't think speech dictation software for computers can read text on images

 

[SlickWylde]

The aspect ratio is wrong for Hyrule, Peach and Dr. Mario, but it's correct for Dream, Suzaku and Miiverse. I don't really know how to explain it more clearly, but the supposed 1.0.10 stages don't fit with the corresponding pictures at all, while the 1.0.8 stages do.

But aren't the Hyrule and Peach's Castles confirmed, from an official account?

 

[BluePikmin11]

How about a new topic? Which characters do you want to see appear as Mii costumes for the game?
