Some wise words from one of the most brilliant scientists in the world. Just imagining an actual battle with nothing but rocks and sticks sounds too corny for anyone to take serious (No explosives or guns?). It also let's you know that technology will probably not advance as much when all of us become senior citizens.
Or that after we nuke each other to infinity and beyond, we have to restart with whatever we can find.

The sad fact is that many would rather resort to violence to solve their problems. It seems like a neverending cycle.

And now for something more light-hearted:

Speaking of Boom Knuckles, I've heard that the Archie Comics will be doing another Mega Man and Sonic the Hedgehog crossover. The new crossover Worlds Unite will be a combination of the Archie Sonic Boom and Mega Man X universes. This one, I'm a bit iffy to many given the differences of tone to both works. Mega Man X was rarely lighthearted at times (Especially given what happened in Mega Man X4) while Sonic Boom had been described as more lighthearted compared to the actual Sonic canon (except for the rather unpolished video game adaptions). It can work if the writers manage to pull it off despite the difference of tone between these two universes and it could be as decent as the last crossover.

I still remember that roster leak. Lmao everyone thought it was fake.
But yeah, it's sad to see characters getting cut. At least ICs wouldn't have chain grabs this time if they were in.

Sticks x X OTP confirmed no doubt, yadda yadda yadda all the obvious stuff.
That might be interesting, though. How will Boom Knuckles interact with the Reploids?

@ Space Stranger Space Stranger why are you that chick from Big Hero 6? Is she, like, the best thing about that movie and nobody told me?
  1. I was pranked and I went wild. I was Elsa first.
  2. Most attractive Disney girl. I may or may not have bought the doll shamelessly...
  3. She is my favorite character in the movie. She is both badass and sympathetic.
  4. Baymax is the best thing about BH6. The sidekicks are the icing on the cake.
  5. Did I mention she was attractive?

So if:
Regular modern sonic=Original megaman
Sonic Boom=Megaman X

Think Lucina is portrayed differently in Smash than in Fire Emblem: Awakening?

This might explain why: http://kantopia.wordpress.com/2014/11/21/ssb4-lucina-victory-linetaunt-comparisons-japaneseenglish/
That makes sense, just because it's translated the same or similarly doesn't mean the exact meaning is carried with it, and the translator may've taken her comments a different way then they originally were intended.

Now I'm curious what Female Robin said to Lucina in the Japanese version considering that one's even harsher then any of Lucina's comments.

Did anybody had that feeling of wanting to be happy and have a nice day but can't because of how people around you are angry all the time ? Yeah, I had one of those days today. And the worst is, it won't stop during this week. I'm stuck with angry/whinny people while I want to have a good time. Even at home, my parents are yelling or just angry. This is not a good day to be Luggy today I guess.

Anyway, how are you guys today ?

The article did say the translation was handled by a different team (Nintendo Treehouse, probably), as FEA's translation was outsourced to 8-4.

If they only had a written script to translate, it's possibly they missed the context and personality. The lines' literal meaning was translated correctly, but they didn't get the tones right in some cases.

While Lucina did have some moments of confidence in FEA, she was nowhere near how she's portrayed in Smash. I think her lines on the trailer were more true to her character, so it was really a mistake on some taunts and win poses.

I'm curious about Robin or other characters with more speaking roles, like those from Kid Icarus or Shulk. Overall, I think the Kid Icarus characters and male Robin seem more true to their original games, though Robin has a few lines that aren't very much in-character.

A similar example of poor translation are Ike's quotes from Brawl (which were reused for this game, both Japanese and English voice overs).

Heh, sorry for... interrupting the conversation..... but....

DMC 4 NEXT GEN EDITIN WITH VERGIL CONFIRMED I AM EXPLODING EVERYWHERE
Hooray, now with fangirls making sure that Vergil has a Huge Tropical Orgy with Dante and Nero. :troll:

Also, the horrid DmC: Devil May Cry reboot will have an updated release coming out first. Let's see more of Dante saying "**** you!" over and over and over and over and over again. :rolleyes:

Yeah, Smash likes to change characters in weird ways, out of the character.

Like, Pit, Palutena and Dark Pit are represented well, but some characters feels wrong. Shulk is potrayed more of a dumb guy with a cool sword more than anything else, Wario is just a "fart joke" character with no references to Wario Land (ironically, there's more references to Wario World for him), Lucina and Female Robin in english are too over-confident, Mario never gives a smile ect...

Of course, characters are overall respected, but some of them feels too weird for being the real characters.

Taking a break to come check on the thread.

Glad I'm living up to my name. I'm suprised that you didn't mention Disney/Toy Story considering that's my alias around these parts.
I was gonna, but at the time/as of now, you're temporarily not the Toy Story guy. AlsoIWasVeryTired.
