Imagine getting something like Bandanna Dee as the last fighter of course it's not gonna happen but it would be unpredictable and for the people who like him super exciting.

I personally would be fine with that as he would be fun, He would complete the Kirby cast and would give my nephew a character he wants. But for others it would be a very anti-climactic and boring finish.

I agree!
This what my reaction would be if Bandanna Dee got in Smash:

Look guys, it’s Not Cuphead:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

(I actually like it, but, it’s basically a Cuphead reskin. Not because of the art style, but it’s got the same animations and finger gun powers...and seemingly the same basic premise, a giant boss rush...).

Still better than the Call of Duty reskins and the End of World Zombie Scenarios.

The developers said they were inspired by Cuphead and they want to try to do their own thing with it, but they certainly need to bring in their own thing soon if they want people to be convinced.

Of course. It does look too similar to Cuphead. It is definitely going to need something unique to make it stand out.

Saw that a bit ago. It's pretty blatant. Not that this is new the game industry, but yeah, pretty much Discount Cuphead, even in its animation having tweens in it. Granted, Cuphead itself is visually based on 30's cartoons, and mechanically is a mix of Contra, Gunstar Heroes and Mega Man dashing. That said, some designs are good.

I don't think they'd sue, but it'd be like 2 years after Shovel Knight came out, some 8-bit platformer Pogo Samurai took 2/3 of the ideas SK presented and made another game out of it.

What’s your favorite classic Nintendo rumor?

Most of the weird Pokemon ones, Mewthree, Yoshi being a secret Pokemon. It's so over the top.

Non-Nintendo would be Akuma in Resident Evil 2.

If Incineroar didn't go *** backwards and get a lower base Speed stat versus its previous evolution, he would be taken a lot more seriously in competitive play.

I really hope that doesn't happen again with any of the new starters.

That was a large problem with Incineroar.

When you're in a metagame where base 100 speed is considered slow, base 65 speed doesn't do Incineroar any favors.

Intimidate made Incineroar into a lackluster mon with solid bulk and attack and turned him into a top contender for VGCs. I predict something similar might happen with Galarian Rapidash and its new ability. At the very least it'll see some niche use to stop toxic users.

My big fear is that Galar Rapidash doesn't evolve. Because no matter how you match it per slot, 500 BST is just too small.

What’s your favorite classic Nintendo rumor?

I can't think of too many, but I remembered Metroid Dread, and it's not only my favorite because it's related to Metroid, but due to the title (Dread is a pretty strong and dark subtitle) and because the timeline is so freaking weird.

• The game received no formal announcement of any kind, only appearing on an internal Nintendo software list and then being leaked by GameInformer in June 2005. It's strongly believed to have been a sequel to 2002's Metroid Fusion, which 17 years later is still the latest game in the Metroid timeline.
• Dread was rumored to be released some time in 2006, but E3 2005 and 2006 go with absolutely 0 mention of the game. By 2007, it's believed to be cancelled or in development hell.
• Then in August 2007, Metroid Prime 3 comes out, and there's a random computer screen on a wall in the Space Pirate Homeworld that reads "Experiment status report update: Metroid project "Dread" is nearing the final stages of completion." This reignites discussion as to what's going on with the game, since this message seems to be a hint that the game will make an appearance soon. The room this message is in happens to also be called the "Metroid Processing Room," ironically enough.
• The following month, Mark Pacini, the director of Metroid Prime 3, says in an interview that the connection between that scan and the rumored Metroid Dread are completely coincidental and unintended. So out of all the ominous words in the English language, they just happened to land on "Dread," with that specific wording, in that specific room, with that specific timing?
• In May 2010, almost three years later, Craig Harris of IGN confirmed that he had seen the game himself, and that the story was fully written, so Nintendo could make and release the game pretty much whenever they wanted to. I don't know if he's the one that said this, but somewhere along the way it was stated that the game looked like a slightly upgraded Metroid Fusion in terms of graphics.
• Over 12 years after it became public knowledge, Metroid Dread is nowhere to be seen, and nothing else at all is known about it. To date, of all the games on that software list from 2005, Metroid Dread was the only game not to be released.

WTF.

A lot of Metroid fans would've been really excited for the game, since it'd basically be Metroid 5, taking place after Fusion, which ended on something of a cliffhanger. But I personally don't like Fusion's story (it's mostly just a bad ripoff of a bad Aliens movie, which was then ripped off even worse in Other M), so I won't lose sleep if we never get a Metroid 5.

Just tell me what's going on with Sylux, damn it. That's infinitely more interesting than turning the Galactic Federation into discount Weyland-Yutani.

Thank CryoPhase! He made it last year, and this is the second year it's my October avatar, because I love October, pumpkins, and Dark Samus, so there's only 31 days out of the year that I can celebrate all three at once!

 

[Arcanir]

When it comes to Metroid, I'm very interested in the Chozo teaser from Samus Returns. The Chozo before now have always been enigmatic figures in the franchise, they had a warrior-like past that they've touched on, but for the most part the franchise has paid much more attention to their wise and guiding side while the former has only been relegated to a detail that helped explain the creation of Samus' suit. The teaser gave a hint that not every Chozo agreed with that direction and some may've maintained their old roots and stayed stuck in their old ways, and I think that has potential to be very interesting since it could expand on that old lore and showcase more of the Chozo.

How to be good at Smesh Bruddahs - a leest:

1. Drop that Danky Ass Gamecube controller that's ****s for posers
2. **** on off outta the Smash Wii U, 3DS, Ultimate, Melee, and 64 competitive scenes
3. Play the superiorest version of Smash known as Barl
4. Use the gameplay-enhancing, God-like, noob-slaying, classic-inspired, ultimate-maxing, running outta hyphenated words, control-style, the sideways wiimote
5. Win and profit off of the average of 3 tournament's that happen every year

Done.

I need to make an announcement.

Remember:

If you enlist the Pigmask Army, you will get a free, complementary visit to the Nice Person Hotsprings, the best hotsprings in the entire Nowhere Isles; heck, the entire universe! You will also get all of the pork chips and pork soup you could ever want, as well as your own Happy Box (if you were unable to get one already) AND A LASER GUN! And, you’ll be working for King Porky himself, the kindest and best leader an army, or whole civilization, could ever ask for! Face it: you’ll never be happy without the Pigmask Army! It’s wonderful; sign up with your local Pigmask Representatives today!

It’s probably best to join, too. Recently, it seems people who haven’t joined have somehow made an enemy with the atmosphere; lightning keeps striking their houses...it’s just horrible. Maybe they’ll join soon! You should, too!

The teaser gave a hint that not every Chozo agreed with that direction and some may've maintained their old roots and stayed stuck in their old ways, and I think that has potential to be very interesting since it could expand on that old lore and showcase more of the Chozo.

Yes yes yes, that's an interesting an unique direction that I'm excited about. The Chozo are so boring in most of Metroid lore. They're just your typical wise alien race that built a bunch of random structures that are now abandoned and in ruins that you have to navigate. That trope appears so often in science fiction that all I can ask is "If these people were so smart/advanced, why are they dead?"

That's why I love the Luminoth in Metroid Prime 2. Not only are they alive (albeit barely), but they're also huge badasses despite their circumstances. They built giant robots to fight the Ing, and there's a memorial statue to one of the Luminoth sentinels above a door that, when scanned, tells you that the guy it's memorializing died in hand-to-hand combat with the Ing. Guy was just out on the battlefield punching the daylights out of giant spider monsters. Yet at the same time, they're just as peaceful and wise as the Chozo, though, but they'll throw down if they have to. By giving them an active history/conflict and showing it a little instead of just telling it, they're already more interesting than the Chozo in just one appearance. They feel more like a civilization instead of a monastery with cool tech.

But then you got this evil Chozo dude teased in Samus Returns, and that's probably one of the most interesting things in all of Metroid, if it lives up to the intrigue. It'll flesh out the Chozo in a much needed way, since they make all these cool weapons but then never seem to use them. Fighting a rogue Chozo general is a much cooler and more unique idea than "Oh boy, the Galactic Federation is cloning Metroids, AGAIN"

Awesome! XD I had the feeling that style was familiar! I love his work! And funny that he likes Omega Ridley's design despite it being hella hard to draw! And also the Prime 3 pirates.

The Prime 3 pirates are okay, but the Prime 2 pirates are still the coolest and most threatening design in the series

xD And funny, I favor the Prime 3 Pirates a little bit more than the other two designs because I find them...weirdly adorable. But when it comes to how I integrate them with my Ridley stuff, I love to add the trio that has a pirate of each Prime title and basically make them somewhat goofy, but not at the same degree as my Silly Roidley.

The game, FGO, censored a character who kinda came off as a racially insensitive stereotype in the Japanese version, so in every other version of the game, they changed him by keeping him "Black but not racist-tier" to put it in the best way I can describe it.

There's been like, 6-7 people pissed the hell off about "Muh censorship" since this happened(Back in like February, so they've been doing this consistently for almost ten entire months now), and will blast each and every Twitter post on the official game's Twitter account with cries to uncensor the character and how unhappy they are, while pretty much everyone else just points and laughs.


This however, was a new low even for them. The literal first post on the newest tweet aaaaaaaaaand it's gore.
