Hey all! Are you planning on getting the game physical or digital (and what are your reasons for swaying one way or the other)?
both. i myself am buying a digital copy just so i don't have to wait too long to play, but my brother aims to collect every physically released switch game, so he wants the physical copy.

I mean, we wouldn't have 20,000 replies without a dedicated fanbase


Speaking of that.... AWESOME!

Just for reference...it was only about 16000 as of my join date.
My first post was post #5361 back in August of 2015. Back in the Wii U days haha.

Hey Ryan, do you plan on making a new Shantae video soon?
I'm pretty sure I will eventually get around to making more videos! I was planning to wait until after the inevitable final direct and either go crazy if she's revealed in base or start speculation for a DLC spot. I think more important now in this last direct (which I'm pinning around November 8th), is that Shantae survives the last assist trophy reel. Because, if she does that, I think she's as good as gold.

I don't know why people like to kink shame Shantae. Anyone who's played her games knows she's actually the biggest cinnamon roll who's more of a fun loving kid at heart. Each time I hear her say"Oh yeah!" I die of cuteness overload.

Man you know you’re horrible when even Holly is above kink-shaming Shantae. But yeah I agree, granted it probably doesn’t mean much considering I have a ton of fictional characters I want to hug but Shantae is definitely in the top 5

She is just full of charm and cuteness. :3

Do you guys wonder if shantae is more likely for base or the first wave of dlc at this point?

If I had to place a bet, I'd put my chips on base roster. I don't believe the Grinch Leak and I really don't think they're gonna work on dlc until a while after the game releases, it just doesn't mesh with Sakurai's desire to make this the ULTIMATE Smash Bros and I can imagine he'd sooner delay the game than shelf certain things to charge people extra for later. I could be wrong but only time will tell.

Yeah, it's rather odd considering that Risky and even Rottytops have less shame about showing skin than she does.

First DLC. Not special enough to help sell the base game by itself, but just enough to encourage the hardcore players that want DLC.

A sad, sad place... may I have hugs? <3
Truth.

So, what will happen first, the confirmation of Shantae in Smash, or a release date announcement for the Udon artbook? For the latter I don't even know anymore.
I'm thinking it might be Shantae's... I'll just say, confirmation in Smash, first. The artbook's release date, could even be announced after the end of this year, maybe.

Actually, I know almost nothing about that book. How will it be released exactly? Will it only be in limited quantities? Where'll it be bought?

I’m curious to know what made you bring something like that up
It was previously said it may be released in 2018, but after a recent event, doesn't seem like it'll necessarily be that way.

Both the release date and the possibility of Shantae in Smash are uncertain and unknown.

Besides, Sky's art you posted reminded me about the artbook, so. :p

I went back to page 50 to see how long it took us to go from page 50 to 500 and the posts were from August 25th.

We've gotten 450 pages and 18,000 posts in a little over 2 months.

Slow day at work as you can tell, just needed to get out of my system, and I figured some of y’all would appreciate that.
