Shantae, the Half Genie Protector of Scuttle Town! (A Switch To A New WayForward)

[Dyllybirdy]

Why? Is it because of the magazine or the tweets?

It's just very hectic around here.

 

[Paragon-Yoshi]

There's nothing wrong with being negative, especially if it's just to get something out or to discuss opinions (which can sometimes ease your mind)..
It's just when it gets out of hand or overruns others' thoughts, or gives untrue impressions, that it shakes things up a bit too much.

I like this thread, and talking things with yous

You did raise a good point, in my book.
So I won't oppose you for it.

Though I don't think we should dwell on it for longer than necessary.
Just saying...

Don’t worry it will all turn back around the way it was

It depends on the case, but to be honest If I'd read a bit more before posting, I might've said something different, because you pretty much already went through some of what I thought. I don't regret posting, but I do think sometimes I can be impulsive

S'all good. I appreciate you trying to keep a positive roll going. That doesn't happen often on online forums, so I'm grateful.
Doesn't mean we can't shoot **** around either. XD
But kindness is nice, and so is fun.

Panic mode due to no information for anything, not just smash.

It goes from wondering when the next direct is, anticipating the newly announced direct, having said direct delayed the very day it was supposed to drop, and then not being told any information about it afterwards. No date. No estimate. Nothing.

Then, on top of that, we're getting devs and publications dropping dates and titles that were supposed to be in the direct. All of this culminates in a panicked feeling among Nintendo fans. The direct is losing it's power every single minute that it's delayed, and that really, really sucks.

And then add a rumored smash announcement on top. Yeah, that's a recipe for disaster.

Yeah thats true. the direct won't be as awesome with all these companies saying everything in it. The only surprises will be snd and 1st party stuff... which there still be a bunch of(including smash). Plus the nintendo online service.

I'm hoping that the Big N does everything in its power to keep that under wraps.

On the other hand, would the Kirby fanbase mind if there is Star Allies Wave 3 info and that it gets leaked?

 

[Dukefire]

Dropping in as a new guest to the table.

I have my expectation to a new announcement of smash ultimate in any shape or form. Other then Smash, I do see that some games that were not brought up will get the spotlight for this one.

Though we already know about the upcoming yoshi title and Megaman 11 getting a demo before its release on October 2.

 

[Hyfiner]

Welcome to Smashboards! Though this probably wasn't really the best time to join...

It seems everywhere I look people are just freaking out. Kinda makes me feel bad for Nintendo: surprising everyone with a direct announcement only to be hit by natural disasters, delaying it and sending the whole community in a panic.

I know this is FAKE but whoever did this is a great mock-up artist https://mobile.twitter.com/TheOfficialTOY/status/1037859190956535809

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Wow! There are so many new people! Welcome to Smashboards!

 

[SoupCanMafia]

Other places are reporting this stuff, too? Huh, so maybe it isn't just us in a state of panic attack mania.

 

[Thermithral]

You know what, put me on the support list.

I already got Ridley, who I wanted more than anyone else, Balloon Fighter seems like a no show thus far and Murky is just a fever dream I want but nobody else really does. Shantae is the only character right now I can get seriously behind, because the game is already fitting the name Ultimate as far as I am concerned.

 

[Cyn]

Might as well add me to the support list as well.

 

[DeltaSceptile]

One direct is delayed people are acting like the earth exploded... glad the whole ‘giving up’ thing was solved.

Welcome to the #ShantaeForSmash official SmashBoards. Where our love for our Half Genie Hero is prevalent no matter what happens.

EDIT: Welcome all that joins. We welcome you all with open arms(or text lol).

 

[Hyfiner]

Well now I have to join in too.

 

[loozer2]

Well, I imagine it's similar to the feeling you'd have if you showed up to the airport to find out your flight was cancelled that very day with no information given on when a new flight could be booked. If no direct had ever been announced in the first place we'd still be going about our business like usual expecting something in the latter half of September for their online service. I think people are going a bit TOO crazy, though. It was actually kind of disgusting reading some of the twitter feed and people legitimately getting upset and flaming Nintendo for delaying the direct for the earthquake, their argument basically being that Japan's problems shouldn't stop them from airing a prerecorded direct to the rest of the world. It's so selfish.

 

[Dukefire]

We are currently treading on thin ice, so anything can trigger for the ice to break.

I will say this:

Keep your wits about to you and focus on the now. Worry about the future later, it will keep eating away at you the longer you hold onto that feeling.

Right now, lets enjoy today. Tomorrow is always a mystery we can't predict even if we try.

[Booper Blooper]

So Yellowlord can you show us the full Shantae support list yet? I want to see how many we have so far.

What they've been able to update so far is on page one of this thread.

Currently there are 116.

That's just sad. Nintendo really don't deserve the amount of harassment that they're getting.

It is a cute picture if I do say so myself.

Oh I see. Didn't know that. BRB then.

EDIT: Woops. Didn't see that you already had me there lol

Welcome to all of you!
To the Shantae thread for the veteran members, and the the boards in general to those new here, welcome all of you and I hope you enjoy your time here!

As for the tensions and nerves, I recommend playing some of the DLC in HGH. That's what I've been doing the past few days.
It's still silly fun, and the writing is still great and funny, even a couple times through.
The aftermath of the Techno Baron fight in Ninja mode crac;ks me up every time (though I won't spoil it here.)

I have been playing the Mighty Switchforce DLC costume mode and sure can be fun. All fun till you get crushed by a cube.

Anyway did anyone see that video by Marlon(former Wario)GamingNation on Youtube? He thinks he has a "leak" of some sorts. It maybe does contain spoilers.

It was proven fake. remember....A N Y O N E C A N M A K E A F A K E L E A K !

Edit: be carfull next time when looking at leaks

 

[MajestyIndigo]

A leak that doesn't involve Shantae playable is a leak I don't want to hear about xD

 

[Dukefire]

This is more of a easter egg, but if you do talk to mimic at a certain point on your adventure. He will give out a talk about 4 certain people on them completing their adventure.

One completes the adventure slow while accomplishing everything.

One that accomplishing everything in a hurry.

One that rushes through focusing on the time only.

One that finishes their quest steady with the focus on the goal only.

Can you guess the 4 characters Mimic was referring to?

 

[SoupCanMafia]

1. That seems to be something like what Shantae would do, because she's sort of that slow-goer.
2. Could possibly be Rottytops, in reference to her coffee needs.
3. Sky, anyone?
4. This could be Risky Boots, since she's also similarly diligent in her design to rule the world.

 

[Veodok]

Yesterday night, we were only about 20 replies higher than the Geno thread.

Now we're at over 400 higher. We are a ****ing rocket right now, holy crap. Kinda ridiculous (but expected) considering that last graph I made.

 

[SoupCanMafia]

Eh, then again, I think a lot of those replies came from our mass hysteria episode.
Regardless, however, we shall go out fighting!

Completionist
SpeedRunner
No idea for the 3rd, could be speedrunner again but time based.
Pacer.

EDIT: Could anyone find the beach tweet from Wayfoward? I got another theory wrapped around some tinfoil.

Guys I have some insider info that Sakurai's gonna put himself in the game. His entire moveset is just the knee with a stagewide hitbox and his final smash will nerf all his opponents out of existence. Don't ask for proof or I could lose my fake job.

1. Link: People wanting to collect and complete all side quests and items

2. Samus: Speedrunners 100% every collectable under a certain time

3. Sonic: Just go for the fastest time

4. Mario: go for the goal
