Miss you Ryan
I agree with the too big argument being moot at this point since many said olimar would be too small. I don't know how anyone could be upset, he isn't holding a spot that will mean the difference between whether or not your favorite character gets in. He's an entirely new style of play, and I am ecstatic about seeing his role in SSE. And I agree, I wouldn't look down on anyone for not playing the Pikmin games, but I would rank both very high on my list of games that fans of Nintendo owe it to themselves to play. Under the cutesy graphics is an epic strategy game.

And Youko, we got our second episode up. If you still want to listen there is a thread in general brawl.

Thanks guy. It really is an epic franchise. I think the reason it bothers me that people haven't played it is that I see so many people (around here) dissing it because it looks kiddie. If people stop judging with there eye's the world would be a better place -- and right there I was not talking just video games, I mean everything in the world in general.

OK, I'm really excited about Olimar too, but this isn't the place for that kind of discussion.


*Sigh* Although I will say for this week's SMYN, I think SP and I and whoever our guest will be are going to name our final playable roster predictions. "Before any new characters are announced," so I thought. And I will say for the record that I DO have Olimar on there, since I made it yesterday, even though I was iffy on his chances in the beginning of the history of the podcast. So I'm pretty happy that I got it right! :)

For the sakurai libs, any chance you can swap two words for one? Today's (awesome) update had a really good one.

Also, be sure to mention the crazy-good music!

1)You have to take forums posts less seriously.

2)Pikmin really is a great game.

3)I always thought it to be weird when people say "It's just a game" on a video game message board. Am I the only one?
I love games and all, but when you take out the effort to mess with the font color and size, well, I'd have to assume you're somewhat serious.

I know Pikmin is a good game. I own both of them.

Olimar that lucky son of a gun, but it will be fun being followed by pikmin, hard to predict the final smash though

Final smash? I got two words for you: EMPEROR BULBLAX.

On a side note, the music update is a bit of a misnomer, since I believe it's actually the map screen from Pikmin 2, not Pikmin. Or maybe it's a combination of both. It's been ages since I played either game, so I can't say for sure...

Pretty clear which update will make the cut unless the dojo's new years resolutions includes making Wednesday through Friday updates amazing. Anyway The final roster lists sounds like it will be a good discussion. Are they going to be dream lists or what you think will realistically happen?

^yeah. I LOVE long episodes.

Also, I'm not really a huge fan of Sakurai-libs to be honest.

I love when you guys just naturally make jokes during the discussion.

After three days this week already deserves an 8. I'm interested in hearing what the guys have to say about it, though.

Good man.

But, like I said, this is a game forum, and they're forum tools. Just saying.

I realize that, but I can get my point across just as easily with using the quick reply box. I'd have to assume that if you either type in the code or go into add reply and click the necessary features, you'd at least be somewhat serious and trying to make a point.

Well I'm serious in the fact that I would like people to play the game, I'm not serious in the fact that I was being dramatic. Something you have to learn about forums, people are never too serious on them, and it's just fun to have your words stand out among the others...These are forums!

Thanks Youko and SamuraiPanda. I enjoy the podcast so much. I also enjoy Panda's stories of Japan, since I am Japanese, I can completely understand what he is talking about =) Anyway, I love it and keep up the good work! thanks

Who said we weren't going to talk about him? Of course we are. SMYN doesn't care about spoilers, lol.


AS POSTED IN THE NEWS SECTION:


FOR EPISODE 28, we're doing a Roster segment in which we will go over our final playable rosters estimates, before any big leaks come out! But we need your help! Send your final playable roster guess in audio or text format to dojopodcast@gmail.com and you might hear yours critiqued on the air! Note: Audio submission have a greater chance of airing, but PLEASE submit a text transcription along with your wav/mp3.



This is for meant for those who really want to be on the podcast. There are hardly any episodes left for guests, so this is one of your last few chances!

But we don't need to discuss how great of a game Pikmin is in this thread and the like. You know what I mean.

Omg. I am FINALLY caught back up with all the episodes. Way to go Panda, causing me to get so far behind. =P lol

Anywhoo, just going to touch on a few things. Such as Youko getting a distortoin box for your guitar. Friggin' schweet. I don't know if I'd get one but a wah-wah peddle has always sounded good to me.

I used to watch a lot of anime myself... most likely no where near as much as you Panda, but yeah. What do you think about the short series FLCL? (or did you even see it?)

And Engrish. Ahhh sweet sweet Engrish. lol. I've never had the pleasure of seeing any in person, but I have of some that were just plain amazing. Such as an advertisement for dish plates. It said something along the lines of, "When dishes are nice, dinner is better; and when dinner is great, the square ceiling becomes round." :laugh:


As for a submission of a final playable character roster... wow... just wow. Wouldn't that be a HUGE submission? Or would the submittants only go over something smaller? Sounds like fun but I don't think I have the imagination to do something of that caliber.

Make it pretty much a list. We're going to try to have a few rosters on the show. So don't type up a ridiculously long analysis of your own roster, please.

Hmm, well I already sent a link to my final roster with explanations of it. I have pictures in it for easy reference though. Once you get the email, you'll know what I'm talking about. If you want me to shorten it however, I'll do it.
