You know we've peaked at what could be considered Wild Mass Guessing when we're competing to quote Team Fortress videos first.

I think this is testament to how good that moment is.

Edit: And now I want someone to edit that scene so all of the quoted are Scout, Solider, and Heavy. Heck, I would not mind me being the one who gets there head blown off. I can take one for the meme.

Welp. I decided to be silly and ask Matt Bozon about Shantae's height. I...honestly don't know what I expected, but it sure wasn't this answer.

actually this reminds me that i'll be able to get all the smash-canon heights of all the characters thanks to the new training mode stage and the official smash height for ridley (being 4 metres tall) so if shantae is in i'll be able to answer her height in smash

I can already picture the guys on GameFAQs goin all like "The Shantae fans have really lost it! Now they think Matt Bozon is a spy in their thread! What idiots!"

Imagine there actually is/was a spy from WF? Who do you think it would end up being?

No one, they have their hands full deciding which tweets to reply to or not, (or like).

Waiting for that direct to be re-announced is killing me, and somehow I think my gut feeling from a while ago about it being three weeks is correct.

height.png

prematurely i did a scale using mario and ridley, but i based it on mario's canon height: 5 feet

ridley is actually pretty close to what sakurai said, if ridley stretched his neck completely upwards he could indeed be 4 metres

on the topic of shantae coming from this scale, how tall do you'd think she'd be in smash?

First of all your usage of both meters and feet in the same post disgusts me

Second, she'd be just a bit over 1.5 meters I think

So a share from a Facebook group pointed me to this gem I didn't know about:

"But Shantae isn't known overseas!"
She's known enough that people go as far as making fanimations of her soooo....*raspberry*

(Yes, I know this is Korean not Japanese, but it's still cool to see.)

I rather have anything but the emo hog. Never liked Shadow ever since he came in the Sonic series. But I won't condemn anyone who wants him, just not my cup of tea. Skull Kid I honestly believe does deserve to be in. He was very popular that Sakurai had to tell in his direct, that he was a AT.

I've never understood the point of Shadow. I know he's supposed to be an Anti-Hero version of Sonic but wasn't Sonic himself already an Anti-Hero?

Oh, thanks for clarifying that. My name comes from a beloved plush toy I used to have. I continue using it on everything, because I know nobody else will ever be called that. Could you just leave me be for the next couple of days, I really need to take a small break from this site.
