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

[Captain Hazama]

Good god, we are still, STILL going on with this song and dance once again? WayForward has to be careful about making an Amiibo. If they do poorly on how it's used, it will sell poorly. And them asking about a possible Amiibo for their game deconfirms hers, that's dumb.

People need to stop poking WayForward about Shantae in smash, it will start to irritate them in the long run. All in all, if she is in. Just wait for an announcement. Everyone's tinfoil hats are getting so tight that everyone is going crazy.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

You just made my day sunny

Shantae was there though.

If it was double Rottytops however, now that's more like it!

Now, don't take "double Rottytops" in the wrong way. Don't ever double post, even if it is Rottytops related...

 

[Mrs.Milky]

Hey, this is off topic but anybody else just go on youtube and see a mountain of tiktok ads? They're everywhere.

I've never even heard of it.

Must be more of an American thing then.

 

[Mrs.Milky]

I've never even heard of it.

I mean I guess. They're just ads for a app you see everywhere on youtube no matter what video it is.

If they didn't want to be annoyed they could just answer us, you're forgetting it was Wayforward that rallied to get us all to vote for Shantae in the first place, so it's twice as frustrating for them to go silent as soon as it starts to count.

 

[Gallant Blade]

Hello!

I will support Shantae for Smash. Playable Indie rep? Sure! Let’s go!

That is, if they can even reply in the first place.
If you get what I mean...

Personally, I wouldn't care what it does. I just want a Shantae amiibo.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I would think they could reply; they're just extra paranoid about breaking their NDA, probably, as they're a smaller company.

I remember reading they were replying with a copy/paste message for a while...?

 

[MajestyIndigo]

Guys, personally I can't wait to know the answers to all these pending questions. It seems endless, but actually it's not ! We are a few weeks away from the final result. And possibly a few days away from the big reveal :D Let's keep hoping and be positive till the very end

 

[meleebrawler]

Random thought of the day: if a darkling from Dark Aether possessed a Tinkerbat, would that also turn them into Cacklebats?

Anyone notice how that particular gif of Rotty is in reverse? look at her hair.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Anyone notice how that particular gif of Rotty is in reverse? look at her hair.

Yeah, I did.

I try to ignore it, but it was really starting to get on my nerves.
And, also, how are you doing?

 

[Teeb147]

What on earth happened here?
Well, I know what happened but I don't like the way things look right now in more ways then one.

Oh it's just hollywoodrok again.
It wouldn't be an issue if people would actually realize that there's a part of him that secretly doesn't want to hope for the good cases. Whether it's because he unconsciously wants to save himself from disappointment or whatever, it would be better if people knew this and wouldn't get dragged down just because he makes a pessimistic post.

I found the evidence for this part, but I also found some evidence that debunks the whole theory....

View attachment 168727



As I said that part about the nindie blog theory, I had the idea to check the rest of the posts to make sure that those two posts weren't already done. I ended up finding these numbers that were missing from the posts instead:

23
24
25
36
37
45

So this means that blog posts 120 and 121 are coincidences that just happened to be at the wrong time, meaning the Nindies blog post was at the wrong time, so the Nindies blog theory is dead (I'm sorry for saying it's real right before proving it fake). Given the lack of evidence besides this that pointed towards her being a fighter, specifically, combined with the fact that Bozon talked about an amiibo as if one wasn't planned (and Dark Lord Vergeben (yes I believe him) leaking enough fighters that would definitely take up all remaining non-echo slots), I've come to the conclusion (again) that Shantae is an Assist Trophy. Let's do a better job next game.

Hollywoodrok, seriously, you have to stop this. It's affecting others and you look at small things in a weird way, things that aren't an issue in the big picture.

I already assumed that there would be other missing posts, why would you think it's an issue? They obviously remove some when they decide to change them to another time. (though I mean even in the big picture it doesn't matter much if the nindies thing doesnt amount to much)

The timing of things is important too, and by overlooking the overall context of things, you focus on these little things and make them bigger than they are, all because you want to believe in the worst case? for what?
I ask again that you stop making claims as if your conclusions make sense for the rest of us. Let there be discussion instead of making conclusions final, or at least keep them to yourself if you want to believe something we dont want to.

Guess what i say no to assist because you’re choices of words are an error
.matt was talking about the concept of her own series amiibo not smash sakurai is Incharge of the game and amiibos not Matt he can make an amiibo if he wants to but it’s too expensive for his own not smash.
.verge is just making lucky guesses and since his lucky guesses got right a lot he just decided to put a full house on the safe picks and there’s no way Sakurai would end with 4 unpopular picks he’s choising from the ballot not just some emotionless blockhead(city might come by and rant on me because I said that)
.as for evidence just last night Cristina liked a smash tweet just like shulk and Medusa’s that makes them fighters the NCC could still be going on and the room could still be heavily hinted to shantae for the next smash direct and one thing that still eyebrow raises me is this:
View attachment 168728
I drew that btw I’m a little bad at placing tho so don’t judge.

Shantae is still there just watch she’ll be in the next smash direct any time soon

Plus you need to stop being a Debby downer dude.
Also @TOY the Gamer you need to stop poking at the beehive JUST WAIT FOR AN ANOUCEMENT!!!!

And You know what? I had enough of ALL OF YOU!!!! listening to these false rumors being down by what these people think she’s an AT which she’s not and most of you just seem to ignore me so yeah I’m leaving

I hope you all learn your lessons

Goodbye and good riddance


REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE(@Connorb0t2 has left believing these speculations as evidence)

Chill, connor, even if 1 or a few people get down, doesn't mean you need to fight against people's thoughts or beliefs. People can have different opinions, and it doesnt change the truth. The truth is beyond what we think. We just have be open and see what comes

The more I see Daisy in that pose, the more I wish it was Peach instead. Peach is the only princess who should be showing her lovely lady lumps. Daisy can hang out in the background for all I care.

If they didn't want to be annoyed they could just answer us, you're forgetting it was Wayforward that rallied to get us all to vote for Shantae in the first place, so it's twice as frustrating for them to go silent as soon as it starts to count.

But that's the point, why wouldn't they tell us something, either because they have no plans but don't want to shoot themselves in the foot should future plans arise, or because they can;t because Nintendo has the right to make all announcements in this situation.

So basically their hands are tied and constantly asking them just means they have more fans they have to ignore, which i doubt they feel good about doing.

Speculating is fine. Putting together all these pieces in a way they make sense is fine. Getting yourself super hyped for something that might not pan out (in my personal case the potential for a direct this week) is fine. Buying all the tinfoil at your local super market is fine.
But asking questions to people you know aren't at liberty to answer them is silly and a little mean.

Hmm, yes.

Though I don't want to ever keep anyone out of the thread, I think some rules, albeit very light, should be enforced.
I just want the mood in here to be nice, for everyone's sake.

Y e s!

I am in agreeance with that statement.

I feel like.. it was interesting to see, as it didnt get a reply or anything, but I agree that there's no need to keep at it, especially with what we know. It's better to leave them alone now. And I'm sure they can take care of themselves if it does happen. (we dont have to keep poking though)

I’m Sorry Teeb147 I just can’t stand Debbie downers they start to make me and others lose hope

Ok. It's ok We can just try to bring some positive stuff, and not care as much about some who're down. Everyone has ups and downs, and sometimes that goes into what they think or say. Sometimes there's sadness in them, so it's not always good to be harsh against them. But I understand that you get frustrated too. We just gotta do our best to recover when we get upset

 

[KoopaSaki]

Hey guys I’m from the Isaac thread and just wanted to drop by to give more support. I firmly believe in Shantae having a chance this time and making it in as a fighter base or dlc. I will keep on hoping for her inclusion as long as her deconfirmation (assist trophy, Shudders) never appears. I think she deserves to get in even if she is a little niche and given her strong history with Nintendo, I don’t see why not. So let’s just all wait a little longer for the final news drop and not get too pessimistic about her chances. We Isaac bros has that last month during that Nintendo direct trust me I know, but this is something we need to keep pushing and believing in until the end. So I’m wishing you guys the best of luck for our half genie girl to make it in!

Exactly, the one time as an academic experiment was fine, but doing any more past this has the chance to annoy them when they have no way to escape. The last thing we want is to reflect badly on the fandom as a whole, so lets enjoy the little attention we did get and not press them for anything else.

I won't disagree, as long as the rules are fair and reasonable.



And while I'm at it, how about a little Heart-to-Heart?

Honestly, I joined these forums and this support-group specifically, because....
1. I want Shantae in Smash (Duh)
and 2. It seemed like a nice group with no stress or toxicity to fear.

Full Disclosure: I have a social phobia. And I can't handle any sort of aggression or toxicity.
Which is why I tend to submit, when I feel really pressured (you may have seen me doing this a couple times here).

Anyway, back to talking about this group:
It seems that recently, it has become an emotional rollercoaster.
People got hyped over little things and lost hope over little things, that really don't matter much.

And people got really defensive and aggressive over various subjects (Shantae Moveset, Shantae Animated series concepts, Steve's potential deconfirmation, etc.).
Not gonna lie, it has become a really stressful experience lately. Especially when people turn on me and essentially tell me I am a piece of garbage for believing or feeling a certain way.

Heck, in one instance, I had someone constantly twisting my words and overall being toxic.
And they even said something along the lines of "if you want the bashing to stop, GTFO!".
Talk about extortion...
(To be fair, that only happened once. But still...)


Now I do get that people get nervous, since the game gets closer and closer to release, and we have seen no signs of Shantae in the game yet.
We have clues, but no clear confirmation. And it seems some people break under the pressure...
But don't let it get the best of you.

Because all of this infighting I've seen really made me feel uncomfortable and sometimes even stressed me out...
Not saying it's anyones fault. But i wanted to let you guys know... if you even care.


Rant over.
You can now get back to what you've been doing.

No shantae as an assist so were safe but it’s very very bad news for the issac fans

And where in the world is dark lord verge getting all of these leaks?!?!?!

I still take what he says with a salt mine. Although it'd be awful if true, given how their thread is such in high spirits nowadays. The mood would sink all the way down to below the Lip thread, but after the Ashley thread.

...

I was trying to talk to my mother, okay? Don't be mean.

but seriously, that was really dark, and genuinely disturbed me. heh.

Now this......this is what I would like to see happen more!

Yeah, it's nice seeing all of these communities coexist with one and another, and work together in harmony. It really is wonderful!

But the oct 7th blog post was wii fit trainer and I’m felling sad for the issac thread right now

Let’s just face it no one can debunk verge

His lucky guesses are just legit info

 

[TheCJBrine]

I wouldn't call it clickbait, papagenos actually covers certain leaks he finds plausible/he wants to warn people of as it's most-likely fake instead of clamoring for whatever leak he can find

But the oct 7th blog post was wii fit trainer and I’m felling sad for the issac thread right now

Let’s just face it no one can debunk verge

That leak wasn't from Verg.

Also, there aren't many characters left to choose from, so the chance of guessing the next blog post correctly is getting higher. It was also Health and Sports Day in Japan.

Just like how everything he said for DBFZ was legit info? He isn't an untouchable God, but a wannabe with scapegoats when things go south.

Besides, Zeraora is too recent to be an Echo.

Apparently today is Sports day in Japan. So apparently Wii Fit is not THAT big of a guess especially seeing as their was only 22 characters left to showcase anyway.

You can now get back to what you've been doing.

We wouldn't have have gotten so many pages and posts here if we just agreed on everything with zero conflict. Worthwhile posts would dry up fast. And for anybody who posts dissenting opinions without demonstrating an interest in healthy discussion (or just someone you find thoroughly uninteresting to listen to), you just hit that ignore button, works wonders.

Anyway, on the topic of Wii Fit, how good do you all think Shantae would be at yoga?
