Nice to see Shantae keep up some momentum even today. I dunno how that's listed but it says she got 96 votes, so with that she would tie with Sora on the other list. Must be some other criteria going around to put it like that.
I saw that on the Geno thread and possibly the newcomer thread, though I can't recall if it's been on this thread before. It really bodes well for Shantae, as it shows SK was not that much more popular than her, or at least, not as much as some would expect.
I remember coming up with one back when Smash 3DS/Wii U was new, I think I posted it on a compilation video of Palutena's Guidances, I'll see if I can find it and update it. Yeah it would be interesting to have Shantae communicate with the Kid Icarus Uprising cast, especially with how similar the writing styles of Uprising and the Shantae series are to each other.
Man, I've been so caught up with other things, that I totally forgot about the potential codecs/guidance dialogues that could occur. As someone who fell in love with Kid Icarus: Uprising, I'd adore seeing the Kid Icarus cast chatting with Shantae. It's simply too awesome of an idea to pass up on. I could see stuff like Pit perhaps crushing on Shantae a bit (as he's done before with another character in his home series,) or even perhaps someone asking Shantae why she says "ret-2-go" or something along those lines.
I don't think Pit would crush out right, but I definitely bet that there interaction would be adorable, especially when it comes to chemistry. Pit and Shantae both have their quirks, they are often dorky, often not the smartest, but both have heart. It would be cool to see. I wonder how Snake would react to the prospect of fighting a transforming half genie belly dancer?
At that point, wondering why they didn't give us Dark Link, Dark Young Link and Dark Toon Link, given the observed pattern.
Nega as an alt would be fine in my book
I'd rather Risky be the echo IMO so that Shantae can have her gear from Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.
It's a possibility. I can see Shantae also getting a slight redesign for a sports bra like ZSS' alts instead of her tube top with the vest for more coverage.
Yeah but seeing Krystal in her Star Fox Adventures look for the AT. I can see them keeping it just the way it is. Because back when we were discussion about her looks. We never thought they would used Adventures look for anything because it seemed too skimpy. But here Krystal is, wearing her Adventures look.
I definitely agree. If memory serves, Pit is usually more shy and reserved about these sorts of things anyway. My apologies if I made it seem like Pit would be too blunt with his feelings.
As for the vest, well, I see little reason why it has to make an appearance, outside of Pirate's Curse being a heavily adored game. Personally, I always liked Shantae's design in Risky's Revenge, so I'd love to see that get used for Shantae instead of Pirate's Curse or Half-Genie Hero (even though, again, I understand wholeheartedly why those designs would be used, and would be willing to go along with them so long as Shantae was in Smash at all.)
They could do something similar to Ike and Link where she could have half be Risky's Revenge and the other half be Pirates Curse
Now that you mention it, I'd enjoy seeing that too. Keeps things fun, fresh and diverse; just the way I like it.I hope they use the ninja costume
I'm not sure if I fully understand what you mean by half. Is it like how Ike and Link have two different designs to choose from now? (As in, BotW tunic and classic tunic for Link, for example.) If so, I'd be down for that. It'd be an awesome compromise.
It would be a nice compromise, though I dunno if that’ll work. Even going for the portrait artstyle on the HGH side, the two designs might be too proportionally different to work like that
That's actually why I brought up the Crusade Fan Game a couple post back. In that, Shantae had the Pirate Gear and items, along with a transformation mechanic, while for Nega Shantae, they removed that mechanic and replaced the item based moves with moves from normal Shantae's animal Tranformations.
( Needless to say that I want to be counted as a supporter as well )
Yeah... I don't think it means anything. And if it does. Well, they might have accidentally put foot in mouth for this hint.
What's the context?
I believe that the scene in question is from the new Jammies mode. Seems like a "wink-wink, nudge-nudge, say no more, say no more!" type of nod.
This is all stuff from Jammies mode, both the reveal trailer and the ending of the mode.
If Shantae gets in with a Risky's Ship stage...Good God, the clever b-words.
