I believe there is one Microgame in Smooth Moves where the focus is Wario farting.
But that's really a small attention to detail that, unlike the other small attentions, kind of hurts the character. Like why make his main thing farting when there's a lot more to him than that. Did they also forget he was the main antagonist of SML2 as well? Its just kind of a weird thing to focus the character on imo.

And by a "main thing" , you mean one attack.

Oh yeah, one f*cking mini game. Great job Sakurai. I know it's complicated to create a moveset for a character, but Wario was like one of the easiest character you could do. But noooo, Sakurai said "I don't like Wario Land" and instead created his own Wario based on nothing appart from Wario Ware (aka "Minigames feat Wario") and Wario World, wich was not even popular.

Say, could you tell me when Sakurai said "I don't like Wario Land"?
Also, even if Wario World is not the most popular of the franchise, it's still a Wario game. I don't see why he can't take details from it.

Wario wasn't really easy, per say. He definitely has a bunch of different forms, but I do agree that Sakurai made the wrond one with Wario. He should get a more Wario Land-esque moveset, but keep the bike.

I mean, it could have been worst. If Wario was created by Egoraptor, he would have farted and do sex jokes in his moveset.
And at least there's more reason for Wario to actually have more moves from Wario Land than Ridley in Smash. :denzel:

Well he makes himself "Look like that", wich is worse.
And for the Wario World stuff, it's actually my favorite moves when I play Wario. It's just so obscure, nobody really remembers this game appart from those who had a Gamecube with it.

Wario is suppose to be based off of the WarioWare titles, according to Sakurai at least, because he likes the WarioWare games more.
I've always thought that the reasons why Wario Land doesn't get a lot of representation is because 1) Sakurai doesn't care about/know the Wario Land series or 2) He wants to promote the WarioWare series more, as Wario Land generally sells better than WarioWare (some people don't believe in the sales argument, but if this is the case, then sales could affect a series).

Either way, removing Wario's iconic shoulder bash was a really poor decision imo.

I don't mind if characters kinda have different personalities than how their portrayed in their source games. However, I would prefer if their movesets are a decent representation of what they can do in their games, at the very least. In the case of Wario, I think there should be some more balance of series representation (moveset, stages, etc.).

And c'mon people, this is a legitimate thing to criticize. It's even a good example of Sakurai's bias if he really chose to represent WarioWare more due to him liking the series more. I would't have a problem if Wario Land has like 2-3 games... but this is not the case.

Woo! English voice teaser for Final Fantasy XV! I can't tell who any of them is, but Ignis sort of sounds like Gideon Emery who voiced Balthier in XII and Gladiolus sort of sounds like Jamieson Price the voice of Lu Bu and Nier in Nier Gestalt. And DmC's getting a definitive edition with new difficulty modes, Bloody Palace for Vergil, new costumes, lock-on as an option, turbo mode for the PS4 and Xbox One - PC already had it -, an unreleased cutscene, and a teaser of Vergil appearing in DMC4: Special Edition. Since when was Capcom actually competent?! DmC2 and DMC5 seem like they're both getting teased through updated re-releases!

Oh, and MGSV: Ground Zeroes is coming to PC in... 3 days! There's Majora's Mask 3D, Star Fox Wii U, Zelda Wii U, and so much more! *dies of video game overload*

But I have another final and a final project I should be working on... *revived as a sad undead-thingie*

So, A couple of things.

A few people you may know (@ WolfieXVII ❂ WolfieXVII ❂ , @Backgammon, @artisticgamerxl, and others) and I made a shared youtube channel we are calling Star Subway (Go subscribe plz). It also has a Twitter.


Anyways, Star Subway is hosting it's first tournament, which can be found here. I'll be uploading key matches.

Here's something on our channel right now if you are interested:

Hopefully you guys in the Smash Social thread will support our channel.


Alright, done with the #Shamelessplugs

Exhibit A


3:11 in case it doesn't work. The focus of Wario is him being gross rather than his greed and his antagonistic nature toward Mario.
One, so the tally is currently two (and let's face it the farting is only really a side part of the victory animation).
Two, much like the "farting", Wario being an antagonist is not a major part of his character. Greed I can understand, but even then even Nintendo doesn't pit Wario as evil apart from two spin-offs and his first appearance (and what happened in SMBL3? Wario became a hero). With that logic, DK should be an antagonist.

Well he makes himself "Look like that", wich is worse.
And for the Wario World stuff, it's actually my favorite moves when I play Wario. It's just so obscure, nobody really remembers this game appart from those who had a Gamecube with it.
Once, again, I want a direct quote that Sakurai does not like Wario Land.
Also, "nobody remembers it" is not a justification. People didn't remember Ice Climber, or Mr. G&W, or Takamaru for that matter, but Sakurai put them in anyway.

Every time I see Smash Wii-U stuff I'm reminded of how purdy the game is.

Actually got to see the purdiness in person when a couple of asses brought Smash 4 over to Ooples on Saturday when we were doing Project M tourney and friendlies. I was contemplating asking them if I could play a game or 2 until someone asked before I did if they could play it and the people who brought it said "We're only going to play this game with certain people". Suffice to say, after that I had no intention to ask them if I could play it. But goddamn the game was purdy as all ****.

I never understood why adding a boring punch (that I think is again from Wario World) over the Shoulder Bash was a better idea for Sakurai.

The problem that I have with Wario in Smash is simple : he's not Wario. It's a subsitute (oh hai @ Substitution Substitution ) of Wario. Nothing else.

TBH, With Wario as one of my 15 mains, I must say that his side smash is easily on of my favorite moves of his. I'm kinda glad they didn't go with WL for Wario, I like him the way he is now.

Lets say I have found motivation
"Motivation". :smirk: Riiiiight. More like some- *dragged off by the censorship board*

At least it's better than Emo McAngst.
Who would this be? Mr. "Flamboyant and Flippant" or Mr. "Wannabe Punk who has Trust Issues"? Or are we talking Mr. "Cold and Guilty" or Mr. "I Need to Compensate by being Smart and with a 'Big Sword'"?

Or Mr. Lightning Bolt? :p

His new side Smash makes it harder to land. One of the main reasons why Wario isn't my "go to" mains.

You said you'd add me so I waited for a request. Then after a few minutes I added you.
That's what was so confusing. Inow know what happened.

Apparently I imputed your NNID wrong.

Here's the thing about @Rysir though, his is actually funny.
You're only a @ Jason the Yoshi Jason the Yoshi if your repeated "jokes" aren't funny.
No offense.
All of the offense!
Maybe just a little bit of offense...
How about just a fence?
Yeah, yeah let's go with that last one.
