holy ****, wasnt expecting this

Also is this dudes name Erik or Poto because Im seeing those two and have no idea whats what

it might be both - erik for the casual/non-metaverse look, poto for the thief codename

in phantom of the opera, the phantom's personality is split between erik and the phantom (POTO here probably being 'phantom of the opera')

 

[kirbsmash]

on an aside, I'm not a persona man but they're covering up this person's face a ton, what if they are kasumi? they got the ponytail y'know

No, that's silly talk my friend.

Oh yeah that makes sense. Yo two Eriks, DQXI Erik and P5R Erik, ****s wild

 

[Wademan94]

Wademan94 he keeps telling me to stop kidnapping puppies. Why are you trying to discourage my hobbies???

You know I can’t have any competition. They’re mine!

 

[Gentlepanda]

ahem good morning ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first stop of the erik express

[Rangez]

So where's my two minutes of hate at?

I hate that you made the hate list and are still asking for more hate. It's greedy when there's plenty of hate to spread around.

Disclaimer: This post is heavily ironic and don't actually spread hate, that would make me hate you

 

[Wario Bros.]

Guess what who won the convention's Dr. Mario 64 tournament?

Kind of, i'm just trying to enjoy my last day of summer though so I don't mind the boring.

This whole Metroid and SJW thing is really confusing.

Only time I saw the two concepts crossed over I've seen is when one person (Not naming names) misunderstood a comment of Samus having masculine qualities to mean she was transexual and then spent months changing Samus's Wikipedia page to say so and calling anyone who tried to correct the misunderstanding transphobic.

No idea what that has to do with Metroid Prime 4.

I don't ever remember fans blaming SJWs for Metroid Prime 4's delay. Seemed like almost everyone agreed that Nintendo stepped in because it wasn't shaping up to be the quality game that they wanted.

Regardless, we're talking about a very VERY small group of people and a game that's probably still stuck in early development. Don't see any point in bringing it up aside from purposely looking for something to get upset over.

 

[Megadoomer]

Just got back from the convention! I didn't buy anything, but it was cool to see so many cool cosplays and a lot of interesting art/merchandise, and I got to sit in on a Q&A with Zelda's voice actor from Breath of the Wild! (Thankfully, the questions were about more than just Zelda) No top secret info on the Breath of the Wild sequel, though - sorry, everyone.

It was an enjoyable experience, and I'd go again if I got the chance.

LOL, imagine having your gaming identity revolve around a silly cartoon reptile. What a loser.

Now if you excuse me, I've got to got some Charizard Nair set ups I need to be labbing out around right now.

Yeah, looks like Rage-bait to me from what I can see.

Of things to actually get upset about, at least Metroid has a new game in the works when F-Zero gets nothing but maybes.

 

[Gentlepanda]

erik/poto is possibly (probably?) fake

well this has been a wild 30 minutes

 

[Noipoi]

You fools, this Metroid sjw outrage is distracting us from the real issues.

Vegans are stopping Miyamoto from releasing Pikmin 4.

Wait what.

I mean, we all know Samus is ashamed of her body. But that’s taking it a bit too far.

But whatever. Crazies gonna crazy.

No

No we don’t all know that.

Since when is she ashamed of her body?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

No

No we don’t all know that.

I mean, why else would her armor be so bulky and masculine. She thinks people need to see her as male in order to be intimidating.

It’s big and bulky because it’s ****ing powerful bird alien armor made to kill people and protect her body. It’s got nothing to do with anything you said.

I know nothing about Metroid, but I would think would disagree.

(I think I may be missing something)

If that something is Metroid Other M then don't worry, the rest of us have been trying to expunge that memory.

This is the internet after all, even before you could earn money for posting click bait, it wasn't that hard to find complaints about everything. I know it drives discussion here, but it only serves the naysayers purpose to draw attention to their content.

This guy gets it. Anyone else remember when we had a F-Zero GX board in the NintenZone?

 

[Metal Shop X]

I remember seeing this discussion before.

And like last time, all I can say is:

What?

You don't need to feel uncomfortable in your gender/body to want to look more masculine or imposing, you know that, right?

That and her armor was made by the Chozo, I think they prefer to make it bulky and intimatiding because they know Samus will have to face dangerous lifeform, having a bulky armor help dealing with damages and the likes.

who would win

this post

vs.

literally the entirety of zero mission

 

[Deleted member]

I mean when your job consists of 90% fighting alien creatures that really want you dead I think wearing a bulky-ass power suit is just the most practical decision.

 

[Noipoi]

Your headcanons aren’t canon mate. You can’t go around saying it like it’s a fact.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Real talk though, not everything is some sort of feminist message...

 

[Metal Shop X]

Gotta say tho, Metroid is a really cool guy, shame that he and Samus are never in the same room, for some strange reasons...

 

[CosmicQuark]

I dunno why NASA makes astronauts wear those bulky spacesuits, they shouldn't be ashamed of their bodies.

(Wish images were working so I could show Sally Ride in a space suit, but that suffices)

I headcanon that K Rool went missing for a decade because of several drug related scandals, but I don’t proclaim it as official lore.

Weird headcanon, but sure, I dig it.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I think the most frustrating thing about F-Zero is that the reasons don't hold up.

• No Demand- The Fast Series has been a huge sucess and it's F-Zero meet Ikaruga
• Too difficult- Dark Souls and the aformentioned Fast series are massive successes
• No new hook- Why does F-Zero have to do five times the work to get a fifth of Mario's output? IF new hardware is enough of a reason for Mario KArt then what's holding back F-Zero?
• Forgotten series- Nintendo brought back Punch-Out and Kid Icarus.

Is it just me or do Nintendo just have a hard time saying "We just don't want to, ok?"

 

[SnakeFighter64]

It’s an alien sci fi world. Our laws of practicality don’t apply. There has to be some reason. I chose the one that makes the most sense.
