That makes it even worse imo. Why not just translate the damn thing, like they did with Splatoon? Like, it wouldn't require as much effort as MAKING ANOTHER DAMN COMIC.

See, one's a money maker, and the other was forgotten.

So why waste money on translating a manga for a game that people have forgotten about, when you could just do so for a popular game that has a large dedicated community and following?

In other words, there's a reason why the Splatoon Manga was translated and Arms wasn't.

It's probably good that ARMS Sugo Ude Gag Fight wasn't translated.

I may not know Japanese, I saw enough in it to tell me that it'll likely be too weird for a western audience.

Talking seriously for a moment, Zelda is my favorite franchise. But I would be really hard pressed to add another character to Smash.

Most of the characters from the main series are one off, and from the few recurring ones the most remarkable option are Tingle and Impa. The later is hard to represent as she is a character that varies drastically from game to game. I would find hard to justify Midna, Ghiraim, Zant, Skull Kid, the champions, over the others given that they pretty much are on the same level of importance from their own games. I dislike the idea of Ganon given that we have him as part of Ganondorf FS, and IMO is the best version of him which is the OoT one.

Unless some characters gain more prominence in the next entries, I would say that Zelda representation is perfectly fine as it is with a possible improvement would be to diversify the movesets of the three Links. Items, stages and AT are some of the most prominent in Smash.

Hey, Midna is the secondary protagonist in Twilight Princess, and Skull Kid has been in (arguably) three games (five including spinoffs), even if he only had a major role in one main game (though you still have to fight him in TP, but yeah it’s not confirmed that it’s him even if it likely is...).

How's everyone doing tonight? Got to see some old college buddies of mine which was fantastic. Had a lotta fun. Now I'm home and listening to music; buffing my playlist.

Got a lab report due in 2 days.
Got a midterm in 2 days that I completely forgot about.
Got a programming assignment in a language I barely understand due in 4 days.
Got another programming assignment in a language I don't understand due in 6 days.
And potentially got a Smash Ultimate tourney coming at the end of the week.

I'd jump in this Legend of Zelda discussion if I played any other game other than Breath of the Wild :chuckle: And most of my opinions on its representation in Smash are unpopular. Though, while at first I was strongly against Skull Kid's inclusion, I've warmed up to the idea, and his Mii Costume is one of the better ones, since it covers the whole Mii. Would be nice to see them in.

I'm doing fantastic. Finally got a chance to try BK's Impossible Whopper and it was great. Was not a fan of BK before, but as someone who doesn't like the tastes of most meats outside of burgers, finally having a vegetarian option that tastes just as good (to me) in a semi-convenient way is fantastic (would be more convenient if I lived closer to a BK). Also, my job status is in limbo at the moment, but I'm fine either way. If I don't get it, at least I tried, despite not wanting to get one. :rotfl:

Preemptively pissed because I gotta take the bus tomorrow and last time I got my phone stolen.

No I’m not over it.

Farming in Borderlands, just like I have been for the past few days. I'll get to the second playthrough eventually, just as soon as I think my build is good enough. When will it be good enough?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm killing some time just to wait for the season finale of Final Space to air.

OCaml for one class and MIPS assembly language for another.

Wish I was doing Java or Python instead of OCaml, but that comes later... unfortunately.

I'm stuck w/ MIPS all semester though.

Now that's a language I have never heard before. From the looks of it is similar to Python, but it kinda seems weird that you learn it before Java.

Good luck with assembly, that's a pain in the ass.
