Social SOCIAL THREAD 4.102 Alpha: KRSHSKRSH Transmission Interrupted. Critical Error. It's Happening.

[Soul.]

So there was this fake leak saying the 3DS would have SNES titles coming to its eShop.
Ugh. Why can't it happen.

 

[Aurane]

Aye! What manner of Hoo Hah sissiness is this? A new thread that's a continuation of the previous?! This is new. It's like a new chapter of the same story and not an overall sequel. Although this story sucks but so be it. Hopefully a magical crabcake wizard makes an appearence or something. One can dream.

On a different note, the other day someone got me thinking about something.

Basically, I made a self-imposed challenge to make a traditional fighting game roster. But not just any roster: a roster of video game icons from any and all major companies, or games in general. I also imposed the rules of no more than ten characters per company, and no more than one character per series. These two rules were to ensure no company biases.

From the start, I wanted to choose the cast based on a few merits: many, if not all, are gaming icons, some are big cultural icons, some pioneered different game genres, some are just overwhelmingly popular, and some offer really unique fighting styles (this last one was put in more so as to why some characters didn't make the cut, or why they were chosen over the series' main character).

I also didn't want the roster to be too huge. It clocks in at 52 characters.

Spoiler: The Roster For a Game That Will Sadly Never Exist, But Was Fun to Think About

Also lol at my MSPaint skills.

So...would you play it? Any choices you find odd or intriguing? This was a fun challenge to do, IMO.

For the same reason why we cant have N64 on the WiiU.

You have no idea how much I finally want to play Super Metroid, but for whatever reason I'd much rather play it on my 3DS than Wii U. With a Wii U I have a greater chance of being distracted by Smash Bros, Earthbound or Disney Infinity.

Franklin is a wierd one, Im not a fan of straight-up humans that can only do guns in fighting games in general (like Drake or Joel)

Also my inner fanboy is screaming about choosing Scorpion over Sub-Zero. In the end, they are unseparatable (except that one game where they got separated)

In the end, my list would be wildly different, but I would play your version (Dante is all I need in life)

But you see, if they did put N64 games on the Wii U, then that would take time out of GBA games. And that's terrible.

Nah. Smash Bros. is clearly a band.

No.

I hope not, Nintendo doesnt have the infrastructure that could excuse having to pay money for.

But companies need money to live.
Then they have to cut that money from their so deserved projects to their employees.
It's like a crime they're forced to commit.

Okay, so I really thought there should be a character from Grand Theft Auto just due to the cultural reasons surrounding the game. The game gets talked about a lot. I looked into which characters can offer something neat, and of the three GTAV characters, Franklin had, IMO, the most interesting ability. He can slow down time when driving. I figure this, combined with the fact that he could use a more "street thug like" style for hand to hand combat given the nature of his source material, made him the best choice for a GTA character in my eyes.

With Joel, I chose him not alone, but with Ellie, as well. I figure there could be some sort of survival gimmick, or resource management, combined with some duo mechanics.

And Drake could just take a lot of his moves from PSASBR, in addition to a climbing gimmick I was thinking about.


Picking between Subzero and Scorpion was my hardest choice.

Honestly, Trevor would make most sense since he has the most "interesting" fighting style, is the most popular and unique of the three protagonists, plus his abbility is scrictly hand-to-hand focused. Slowing down time ONLY in cars isnt going to help Frankling in a car-less enviroment . But as far as GTA protagonists go, it would have gone with Niko or Claude (CJ has potential for a crazy movelist as well)

I was also toying with the idea that the environment wouldn't be carless necessarily. I kind of had this really crazy idea in mind that's somewhat based on one of Sam Flynn's abilities in Disney Infinity, haha.

Spoiler

Though, IIRC, isn't Franklin the only of the three protagonists who is guaranteed not to die in the story? That admittedly also factored in to my pick, haha.

Though admittedly picking between him and Trevor was my other big decision in the bottom row.
