I'll tell ya what's strange about the results:

And then they confirm Queen Merelda as a Peach clone. :happysheep:

No but the poll results are definitely... something else. The veteran results make plenty of sense at least. The newcomers are all over the place though, lol.

Agree with the first part of your rational. Sakurai approves every single detail in the game. He's crazy. Hal Labs based the coloring/ shading of Smash 64 based on how it looked on Sakurai's T.V. They talked about adjusting the color of the warp pipes in the Mushroom Kingdom stage. The dude acted out most(if not all?) of the characters in Subspace Emissary so they could be reanimated by hand. Sakurai has the final say 100% of the way.
There's a difference between approving every final detail, and being responsible for every decision that has to be made. He is only one man in a team of several other individuals. Contrary to popular belief, and even if he is responsible for approving every decision to be made, I highly doubt he's is the one and only source for every idea. Despite how involved he may be with the production process, he's not omnipotent. I'm sure there are details and issues that escape even his attention, and those decisions are left to the rest of the team to sort out. There's only so much physical time for any one individual to do any amount of work, and I'll bet the other members of the team have made their own special mark on the game as well. Sakurai doesn't get to have all the fun.

Is there any way to check what was updated in the ballot website? Like maybe they added IP filtering or something.

Can you post the pic?

Can't access twitter right now :/



I dunno, I thought it was pretty good tbh.

I think worlds collide was just a bit better tbh.

Just a bit tho.
Sorry for the late reply, I thought it was kind of underwhelming, I mean they brought in all of the world famous SEGA and CAPCOM characters and they mostly focused on Sonic and Mega Man, and I know it's their comic, but what was the point of bringing these characters in, it almost seems pointless. Whose villans come together, Sonic and Mega Man's, whose world's get merged, Sonic and Mega Man's, who does Sonic choose to go Super with him despite several people being in the phacinity making it entirely pointless for Sonic to choose one person, Mega Man. Also they have all these famous characters, but they also brought in all these B-teir characters, Sticks, SatAM characters, fan crated Robot Master Quake Woman. See what I mean?

It appears that it wasn't actually updated. It's only "updated" when it processes new submissions from what I can tell.

Man 007 Goldeneye for N64 is so fun. I'm enjoying it more now since because I'm not a kid, I'm actually understanding what to do better and my skills have improved dramatically since then. :kirbymelee:

Oh, so this has happened before? It might just be because of their method of counting votes.

The costumes look great. Except for Chun-Li she looks kinda bland. It's like trying to be her original SF4 alt without being as good.

That Ryu Alt should be in Smash 4. It looks great with that old man beard
Oh wow! I never thought that I'd see Ryu with beard officially; It looks very nice on him, considering all this concept of endless wanderer; --I wish he had at least the Battle Damaged costume from SFIV in Smash4. =\

This is so legit. Bearded Ryu for Smash plz

He really does look awesome in the bearded look. Shows off the age and maturity of the character. This how I wanted the new SFV designs should be and Bison is on the road as well as Birdie and Vega. Ken looks too young for his age considering he's like barely older than Ryu

Bison is looking cool.

And the return of Chun LI's alt 1 costume.

this issue of "Grasping for straws monthly" brought to you by smashboards
I thought that the only way in which the Shovel Knight rumour could be debunked is if there end up being DLC characters revealed within the next two months and none of them being Shovel Knight. Am I correct or am I wrong?

Not really. I didn't say proof, I said evidence. There's a difference. I believe a major assumption about the SK amiibo's was that Nintendo was handling manufacturing and that seems to not be the case. Perhaps they're putting some money behind it, but the fact that business negotiations are being left up to YCG is important in the argument.

>Calling Kamen Rider Power Rangers
Sorry, but when I see people in weird customes like those fighting other people in weird costumes, I think Power Rangers. Sorry for my lack of culture:p

But yes, that a form based on Edison. The blue was Isaac Newton, his forms are of famous dead people, we'll even get Beethoven. Japan is weird and I love it
This concept is so weird that I love it.

Dam straight you should apologize, Kamen Rider is literally the grandfather of Power Rangers. Other leaked 'Souls' are Robin Hood, Billy the Kid, Benkei, Tutankhamen and Nobunaga. The doohickeys are called Eyekons, being a triple pun. Eye, Kon (soul) and Icon. The protag dies in the first episode and needs to collect them all in 99 days or something to be fully restored back to life

They probably won't be sentient in the actual show

Actually, you reminded me of Saban trademarking Power Rider. Thank god they didn't end up using it considering their track record
