anyone ever just have a gut feeling that's backed up with absolutely no evidence, but you can't help thinking something is going to happen.

I have that.

Oh God, he has the shining!

Speaking of which, I read Doctor Sleep, the sequel to The Shining (no, not Stanely Kubrick's The Shining), recently and holy ****. I was blown away. Amazing book. 10/10, would read again.

Then again, that's pretty much any thing S. King writes.

She probably got the joke and still found it unfunny.

Morbid's father...never hugged her.
I was about to go right past this post, until I saw the crossed out words.

Let her discuss Smash 4 whenever she wants. :9
Are you a robot too?
Here is a test to prove your humanity.
Why couldn't the 11 year old get into the Pirate Movie?

That was seriously uncalled for...
He said "You best not be calling me an idiot."
It was so tempting.

EDIT: Oh crap! I accidentally double posted again. Stupid mobile! I already got a warning about double posts.

Sheik? You mean Impa. :cool:
I do think the logic for Impa as from Diddy Kong is astounding.

Not only would she not add anything that Sheik can't already do, but Sheik was based off of her anyway. Impa isn't nearly as important as many people make her out to be.

In OoT, she plays essentially the same role as 6 others do as a sage. That cameo appearance in the painted glass in Wind Waker? All the sages were in there. It's nothing special.

The only thing she has going for her is Skyward Sword. You could say the same for Sheik in OoT, but at the same time, Sheik was included because of the perfect opportunity to create a phenomenal moveset for Zelda. Phenomenal in uniqueness, not necessarily execution.

Impa is honestly nothing special.

Also just noticed I have 2500 posts. Yippee

You know, sometimes when I break these things down, I feel like I should either make my own thread like Chrono's, or do some sort of video series. But i'm too friggin lazy. Blah.

At this point, I'm considering pulling out for any and all Zelda potential characters.
Not only is it a bit much, but it's just flame wars after flame wars. :ohwell:

I'm trying to keep myself from getting excited for Dedede in the off chance we don't get him tomorrow. It isn't working that well.

Well, the thing is, there's really no other good opportunity to showcase him. Like with the Pokemon reveal, I feel there will be other good chances down the line to reveal a Pokemon character, like a Direct or E3.

Personally, I'll take news of any kind. Items. AT. Stage. Disconfirms. Characters. Master Hand. Yoshi should just be revealed to shut up the people that don't think he is a lock.

That's what I was thinking too. At this point it makes complete sense to reveal him now.

There are other characters who won't have an obvious chance to be revealed, like Falcon, Ness, Lucas, Snake, Ike... So really I'd be rather upset if Dedede isn't revealed.

I see we've started the Zelda discussion. Welp.
Honestly it's better than talking about Fire Emblem. And Diddy Kong doesn't support a FE character so we can't crush his hopes and dreams even more.:troll:

I don't understand why Sakurai revealed Sheik on the Brawl Dojo so darn late.
You'd think she would've been shown off a week or a month at most after Zelda.

The only reason I can think of is that Sakurai wanted to keep the fans guessing until it was almost time for Brawl's release.

I feel like the Grinch when I pray that there is no Dedede reveal tonight. :sadeyes:
