Shoutout time:

Have I liked your posts? You're in it
Have I replied to your posts? You're in it
Have you liked my posts? You're in it
Have you posted here? You're in it
Do you enjoy Smashboards? You're in it

Preach!! ( ͡°Ɛ ͡°)

 

[Krimnorr]

While the number of pages in this thread is impressive, I just glanced at the actual post count and almost couldn't believe it at first sight. That's almost 400,000 posts in this thread.

 

[KMDP]

I legitimately have enjoyed my time with everyone here and will show that by continuing to be in their presence after this thread closes because it's just a ****ing thread the site is still going to be open guys.

And also, Zachmac is dope, yo. I'd swipe right on that.

"Why do we celebrate New Year's? It's just a day, we're still going to be alive tomorrow guys."

...

I consider these shout-out posts a celebration of what has come before. Ringing in the new thread with statements of appreciation for others.
(Granted, by this logic they're probably coming a day earlier than they need to. )

Sorry to break up the wholesomeness going on in this thread, but I want directions; is there a thread discussing/debating the potential of Assist Trophies as DLC somewhere on the site? I've got a few things I'd like to throw out there.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Thank you all for the thanks~

...With how much I was getting tagged, I thought there was Quest 64 talk.

Not currently.
If you want, you could nominate that for discussion on the RTC thread.

I mean, there is a newcomer speculation forum under the Character Discussions. Not sure if that's exactly what you're looking for, but there may be specifics in it.

Danke. I'll just go to the speculation thread, but maybe I'll start up a thread for making counterarguments if the fanbase becomes a smidge too riled up again.

[Saetanigera]

You think that was stupid?
That's nothing

Anyone remember my dumb "Naive biased speculation" rant, where I was complaining that most leaks/evidence only got looked as legit, if there was a highly requested character involved?

My goodness, how much I've changed

I find it amazing how many leaks make a leaked character highly requested retroactively. When you think about it that way sales and popularity are better routes than polls.

Okay I won't lie, seeing all these shoutouts and not getting named once is making me feel a little anxious about my self esteem. I'll chalk it up to me not being that active or funny though and not take it personally.

I shouldn't have a right to be upset when I'm not planning on a shoutout post myself though.

You're pretty cool, Zachmac. Your posts are always really interesting, and some of my favorite in the thread.

You also have excellent taste in mains; Pokemon Trainer and Bowser are dope.

I LOVE YOU NineS

 

[Saetanigera]

In a sense, I get it. Not the volatile responses to people they deem casuals or the hissyfits they're known to throw, but more the idea of "I was here first and I'm more of a fan than you." It's somehow disheartening when a clearly more casual fan talks about how much they love something despite not being able to keep up with you in a conversation about it.

Ever since Daredevil came to Netflix, I've run into so many huge Daredevil fans who can't name a single character who wasn't in the show. As a comic book nerd who ****ing loved Daredevil since middleschool, those conversations annoy me.

Having talked to many casual fans who got turned off by diehards: Let people like things. You started somewhere.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Ah **** I forgot NineS Michael the Spikester Rie Sonomura and @TotsBS

Sorry about that!!!

Thank you very much my fellow reptile brethren.

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

Uh okay. King K. Rool's Gang-Plank Galleon
Apparently some amusement park in France has this ride:

Blares the Smash remix of Gang-Plank Galleon full force 24/7

Great job, that would look and be amazing.

Any mainstream advertising and coverage for DK and the Kremlings uglee dezignz is an instant like

I vaguely remember skimming over one.

Also there is a thread here: https://smashboards.com/threads/assist-trophies.457413/

It is dormant though, if suitable perhaps make your own one and see how you go.

So thread is closing soon.....not surprised tbh, the discussion was at times quite stale and repetitive.

Oh well thanks all, it was generally a good and sometimes....interesting read most of the time.

School had me for a while.

Anyway, still haven't spent a year here. Even that hasn't stopped me from being familiar with more people than I was expecting. Does anybody else ever think "what if [insert anything] never happened?" to themselves? If I never considered buying Smash and watching tourneys, I probably would have never been here at all. Not the most emotive person in the world, but I can say I have made friends here. I don't know if I'll be posting here frequently in the future, but who knows?

So, thanks to:

Okay, back to the edgy personality.

You know what? Let me just add some more people.

I just rediscovered this and it's been stuck in my head ever since. Take me back to the good ol' days, man.

But to keep it Smash related...I like Smash. It's a fun game.

I've just been murdered by nostalgia. I had forgotten that this existed.

Here's some music for the bittersweet post I feel obligated to write.

Spoiler

Smash Speculation is always something...special. That statement is imbued with some sarcasm, but there is truly something about Smash Bros. speculation that sets it apart from speculation for other games, or other aspects of internet culture in general because everyone is brought together to hype over this one game where anything can happen. This speculation phase was definitely one of, if not the most exciting speculation cycle given how short it was. We went from a tease in March, to a reveal in June, and the game came out that same December. Compared to the multi-year speculation cycles of past games, this one was much shorter, and all the more passionate because of it. While completely predictable in every sense (fans get their hopes up astronomically high, desperately revolt against evidence of a roster that falls short, and then rage when it happens), I still had a good time debating, arguing, and ****posting with everyone here.

I returned Pre-E3 because it was the summer before college and I had nothing better to do with my time. I had no idea I'd go on to become a "leak" aficionado or a face in speculation, or that I'd make real friends this time around. During Sm4sh speculation I really kept to myself, and while I remember some people, this time around I feel like I really got to know some of you guys, and that's cool. Special shoutouts to Luigi The President , Rie Sonomura , Nekoo , osby , and Noipoi for being really cool people.

I don't visit this thread that often, so not sure what's going on, but most of the time it's moving too fast to have time to be sentimental about people on it XD

[Roberk]

1) Japanese daily Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun released a (very short) interview with Nintendo president Furukawa today.

He says Smash Bros sales passed 5 million globally in week 1.

Says Switch is the home console seeing the fastest software sales so far in Nintendo's history.

— Dr. Serkan Toto / Kantan Games Inc. (@serkantoto) January 16, 2019

This might've already been posted, but Ultimate sold 5 million copies the first week. I have a feeling just one fighter's pass isn't all we'll be seeing if Nintendo wants to capitalize on a game this successful.

Honestly though, I think there are too many shout-out posts right now. Where’s the drama? Where’s the beef? I want to see people ****ing tearing into each other!
