Guys.... are you aware that Quote originated in JAPAN?!

He MIGHT have an actual chance now that I know this. I just hope Shantae is more popular than him over there.

Well, it is Halloween season...



Mmmmm... tech in Sequin Land is kind of schizoprenic. Techno & Ammo Barons have fairly advanced stuff comparitively, but no one really bats an eye unless they're getting blasted by it. Yet Mimic makes a big deal about this cool thing called a bicycle.


The ressemblances between the scenes in Light's lab in 11 and Mimic's workshop in Half-Genie Hero are uncanny. Although the super adapter theft happened in 7, not 8.
Gaaaah! You are right about Seven. I pulled a DOH! there. **sigh** And I call myself a Megaman fan, and go and do that stunt. Sorry about that error. Oh, try not to spoil 11 for me, I aim to play that soon enough.

What kinds of games or anime do you like?

Also, I have quite a bit of shantae pics if someone wants to change to a shantae pic.
(altho i guess i'd have to show which ones i have..)

Many many games, Mario, Shantae, Pokemon, F-Zero, FireEmblem ect ect ect come obvious to me but I want something... mindblowing, sensational, breathtaking, bewildering, outstanding, phenomenal, never-seen-before, GROUND BREAKING... to celebarte de 400 pages xD

I wouldn't worry about it. Cave Story is an amazing game, but it's very old and never went on to other things. Shantae predates Cave Story, has more games to her name, is more relevant and... Quote and Curly Brace are both in Blade Strangers.

Yeah. I can go with that. I actually never heard of anything from Cave Story, hell, I actually don't know how many Cave Story games there are aside from just Cave Story.

As much as I loved Lyn in her original game, she is not among my very favorite video game characters... Plus, I don't want her to spread her Assist Trophy disease to our girl :p

I like Lynn a lot too. She definitely deserves to be playable over most the FE reps in the game. Tho I kinda think Anna would be the best FE rep considering every FE has an Anna.

Tho my personal FE inclusion would be Tiki, she is so adorable.

Uhh this just caught my eye when swimming in the sea of fake leaks

"the interview was published on the 6th of March and the project plan was started in late December. The interview itself was also featured in a magazine which needed to be printed and distributed so you can tack on even more time between interview
We also have no idea when the roster was decided, this isn't Smash 4. Sakurai said outright a ton of effort was put into getting the veterans back to the point where it almost didn't happen, therefore I would imagine newcomer selection timeframe be different.
Of course this is all speculation but the interview is a weak point at best and still doesn't explain the 2 and a half years worth of silence from Matt Bozon. Even YC wasn't under NDA till late 2016, implying SK's AT addition was added rather late."

Is this the part where we freak out?

Yeah I wouldn't mind an axe wielder.
(or a pure magic user, i guess)

Also, how did you de-evolve? :O

Just remembering a scene from my past when a friend and I were trying to help grant someone's wish...


Hey, MajestyIndigo MajestyIndigo , this kind of looks like your existing avatar.

If only the image quality was a little better.
Did she turn Bolo into a frog? That's pretty funny

A sad, sad place... may I have hugs? <3
This used to summ up my feelings towards her, I've been softening up since Daisy's smash reveal and Super Mario Run role... But I would not have her as my avatar EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Yeah I know I'm a lame Daisy fan but I can't help it xD
Dyllybirdy Dyllybirdy Thanks for your idea, I'll consider it ^_^
Wow, that is not good music. I must strike back with a god tier song.

It's interesting that there's 200 pages between the top threads right now
(Isaac - 600. Shantae - 400. Geno - 200)

I'm with you on this one. Daisy is best Mario girl, by far. Mario never should have left Sarasaland.

That's actually very interesting. I wonder how long it's gonna stay that way.

IDK why, but I'm getting mixed messages from this. Is this supposed to be arguing her being a fighter or AT?
