What could pawsibly go wrong?

Spoiler: Don't read

Furaffinity would be changed forever

I thought that already happened after Incineroar got in.

 

[Zinith]

I thought that already happened after Incineroar got in.

It'd be changed even more

 

[Ultomato]

Nah, nah, nah.

Bubsy.

The character we deserve.

Conker anyone?

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Conker anyone?

Not sure if Conker would be able to play like Conker in an E10+ game...
If anything, he'd probably play more like "Slightly Insane Squirrel"

 

[Ultomato]

I mean...
As long as we don't give him any guns...

 

[Deleted member]

Alright, you heard the man, Sakurai...
Fortnite Guy it is...

 

[KMDP]

Conker anyone?

I mean...

Technically DLC doesn't have to have the same age rating as the base game. >_>

 

[Deleted member]

Well fellas, I think I need to go to sleep now.
Have a good night/evening/morning/afternoon/day!

You're saying it like both Smash 4 and Ultimate added characters from M-rated games as DLC.

...wait a minute.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

You just named their homelands, none of those are specific locations.

What FE needs is The Dragon's Gate even if we never get one of the FE7 lords.

Hey. Achenia was in the code of Melee as an unfinished stage. I was just following that logic.

 

[osby]

Hey. Achenia was in the code of Melee as an unfinished stage. I was just following that logic.

It was probably just a code name for a potential stage. Real stage would've been a specific place, like how Roy isn't called Emblem.

Leon Kowalski, Analysis!

Yeah so one day I got really bored and decided to write some analyses on the themes in SSBU’s adventure mode. You can check it out here. I also posted it in the Nintenzone thread when this one was closed. From then till now I added a couple minor details but for now I’d say it’s complete. I’m proud of it, and I just like analyzing things.

Also, I’m probably gonna actually beat WoL soon but I won’t NG+ until Piranha Plant and/or Joker come out. Wanna test a theory.

Speaking of DLC...

DIRECT TIME LESGO

Wait, don’t they usually do these maintenances around the time of Directs?

 

[Yoshisaurus Rex]

Wait, don’t they usually do these maintenances around the time of Directs?

Not always actually if I remember correctly.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Wait, don’t they usually do these maintenances around the time of Directs?

Regardless if that's true or not, maintenance is an important thing for an online service, even if Nintendo's is pretty pisspoor in that regard as someone hacked the Splatoon 2 leaderboards with ease saying "HEY NINTENDO FIX YOUR **** THIS IS TOO EASY FOR PEOPLE TO DO"

 

[Arcadenik]

Speaking of DLC...

So they are probably getting ready to release Piranha Plant and announce the second Fighter Pass pack. Maybe show a trailer of Joker and his moves.

Not sure if Conker would be able to play like Conker in an E10+ game...
If anything, he'd probably play more like "Slightly Insane Squirrel"

Well, Conker could play like Conker in an E10+ game if he was based on the original version. The one from Diddy Kong Racing and Conker’s Pocket Tales.

We have like zero reason to assume Second Fighter Pass will be a thing but even if it exists, isn't it way too early to reveal it?

EDIT: Pay no attention, I'm dumb.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

I think he was referring to the second DLC character, aka "Brave"

 

[Arcadenik]

Yes. This.

 

[CannonStreak]

Yes. This.

Yeah, that misunderstanding has happened to me before when I asked something similar not too long ago.

 

[osby]

Yes. This.

My bad. I forgot about each fighter is a part of a pack and thought you were talking about another set.

 

[Wyoming]

EDIT: Pay no attention, I'm dumb.

Then at E3 people will expect the third fighter's pass to be announced. Then the holidays a fourth pass is on the works!

...While we're still waiting for our last character for pass 1. Betcha people still won't be happy.

(Yes I know that isn't what Arcadenik said I am doing a hypothetical)

Well, Conker could play like Conker in an E10+ game if he was based on the original version. The one from Diddy Kong Racing and Conker’s Pocket Tales.

I'd say it's still too early for our second character to be announced. We'd be lucky to get Joker gameplay tbh.

I do hope they surprise us and release the plant earlier than February though. That thing looked pretty complete on reveal already.

 

[ButterGeek]

Becuase of all the reveals in the last few days and what some insiders have been saying, I think it's very likely that we'll get a Pokemon Direct on the 15th instead of a general one (why would they reveal that YCW trailer and the other stuff few days before a normal direct?)

 

[Deleted member]

Plant is gonna come out before the end of January alongside the first batch of Mii Costumes.
I just wish they could sell other type of DLC, Mii Costumes are a fun "oh hey they referenced that!" but they're, you know, Mii Costumes.
I'd pay for actual character costumes though, give me a full robot Ridley, some armors for Shulk and that crazy HW Ganondorf hairdo.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Why? Smash Bros was rated Teen for Melee & Brawl. The actual reason to bump it up would be to accurately depict characters, such as Joker with his handgun (if he doesn't have it), Corrin with her exposed thighs (ooo so scandalous..ugh..nothing worse then would be seen on the beach or in ads), and allow for more character options such as Dante, 2B, Pyra & Mythra, etc.
Keeping it E10 when 21 of its characters are from Teen & Mature rated games is silly, its pretty clear that the rating won't alter sales (parents will see Mario & Pikachu and assume its safe for children, which it would be), and then in general there are so many possible series rated Teen & Mature that could be more easily brought in with a Teen rating then an E10.
This goes for the CERO rating as well, it doesn't have to be rated A for All, it could be rated B (12+) or C (15+) and still do just as well.
As a reference, Project x Zone, which was Rated B in Japan (12+) and T in North America contained scenes like this..

Spoiler: Mild Sexual Content

Of course Super Smash Bros. would never feature something so..jiggly..It could, however, get to feature something else shown in that game..

Its funny how CERO changed since they were fine with that stuff in Brawl where it was rated A just like 3DS/Wii U & Ultimate are.

The E10+ rating doesn’t hold back the likes of Dante, especially since Bayo is here, and Melee was only given the T rating since there was no E10+ back in its time (Brawl had more serious and gritty like elements than the others, some blood, some suicide, some dededepression, you know...the usual stuff)

So I was going by memory of their investors' meeting back in August where I thought they said they expected RE2 to carry their revenue through 2019, but I looked it up and I was mistaken. They expect it to carry through the fiscal year. Which makes way more sense, since their fiscal year ends in like... February? March? One of those.

It'll be interesting to see which sells better. A remake of an old Resident Evil game or an actual brand new DMC game that isn't DmC.

DmC never happened

but the Piranha Plant code downloading stuff expires on the 31st and Smash already states he’s set to join sometime next month (the in-game news says so)

 

[Dee Dude]

Conker would be one of the best Smash inclusions out there, but he’s such a pipe dream that Banjo himself is still trying to be pushed of getting in.

Too M-rated for Smash? Boom .

Atleast Conker is a goofy wisecracking cartoony squirrel who can incorporate slapstick and “context sensitive” into his moveset.

Just remove the swearing, alcohol, guns, and he’s good to go.

Atleast keep him around ‘s level of crude humor.

[Gentlepanda]

So... What is yall's current stance on the Erdrick-Ryu2-Steve-Doomguy leak?

Erdrick is probably in, but as much as I'd be okay with Steve and Doomguy the leak really has nothing to stand on save for piggybacking on Erdrick claims and the P5R domain registration (it also claimed P5R would be released early 2019, but in reality it's not even getting a reveal until March).

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Wouldnt it be funny if Conkers final smash is straight up a non censored version Great Mighty Poos song? imagine hearing "And Im going to throw my **** at you" in Smash

He could work but honestly Conker would most likely be what Microsoft's 6th choice?

Steve, Chief, and Banjo would be the top 3. Battletoads and Marcus would be below that. Then you'd have Conker with other Rare properties and Viva Pinata.

Pretty sure Fulgore would beat out Conker. Terry Crews in Crackdown too

Terry Crews no (whole other level of legal issues). Fulgore eh I guess.

I'm pretty sure this leak was posted before all the Erdrick leaks and for sure before the "Brave" coding

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Erdrick was on many people's radar for quite a while, actually...

 

[kirbsmash]

Hi, hello. Been gone for days. How is the leak holding up?

Just curious, what makes you say that Piranha Plant will be out this month? Wouldn’t he be available after the DLC registration deadline on Jan 31?

 

[Peeton]

Did you copypasta your comment like 3-4 pages ago?

???
I’m always really late on these discussions but I wanted to put my opinion out there sorry if it was weird

 

[CannonStreak]

About the leak, which says Steve is in. Well, maybe Steve is already going to be in the game, as Piranha Plant, if you know what I mean...

"Hi, guys!"
