listing of the banjo model has something interesting in its name

Ironic.


Banjo can come home to Nintendo.

But Geno can't.

Great, now I am having chest pains.

 

[Shroob]

The Bear and the Bird are coming home after all these years.


**** feels good, ngl

 

[Wunderwaft]

Ironic.


Banjo can come home to Nintendo.

But Geno can't.

Banjo's owners are more relaxed and chill about sharing their characters. Geno's owners are slave drivers that will not let their characters see the light of day until they rot to their bones.
It's a small difference really.

splatoon tourney is some hardcore ****

The twitter account for Exquisite Games is denying that this was intentional and was most likely caused by someone without official say-so. Wonder what's up there.

Spoiler

Hi Matt - sorry Nothing to do with Us - this is NOT how we name our Cable Guys so think someone has taken a wrong guess - until a cable guy is approved by publisher partner we don’t share any name details so sorry but this is false -

Yes it’s an error - very weird when we look on their site they don’t have many images - but wrong names on pretty much all of them there are a few cable guys we are not even making on there and no idea where the dates came from - no idea who is supplying them info - looks rogue

To be honest, this leak doesn't make it clear Banjo is coming to Smash, but he's coming back to Nintendo in some way. Smash is just one possibility. Could be a new game and that's it. As somebody said before, hype responsibly.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

To still keep myself more patience. Gonna go watch a favorite creature feature of mine soon.

Deep Rising.

 

[Knight Dude]

I'm still rooting for NA to take it. But that one Japanese dude is fighting for his wife and ****, it's hard to defeat someone fighting for their family.

That said, Pro Tekken this is not. Been listening to some MVC2 music to make things more fun to watch Splatoon.

 

[Gentlepanda]

tfw even if banjo's coming back, kirkhope clearly isn't involved because he's spoken openly about banjo potentially joining smash multiple times in the past without any NDA limiting him

 

[Deleted member]

What if this is just a Banjo and Kazooie game instead of them being in Smash Bros?
I guess I will be happy if Banjo is in.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Do you guys reckon if Banjo makes the cut there's gonna be salt over Steve not getting in? Not trying to rile things up BTW I'm just curious is all.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I wasn't trying to call out you or anybody in this thread in particular. But there are a lot of banjo megafans out there who will be aggressively smug if he's in.

Well, I’ll try hard not to be one of them.

 

[Kuon]

Do you guys reckon if Banjo makes the cut there's gonna be salt over Steve not getting in? Not trying to rile things up BTW I'm just curious is all.

Oh yeah, for sure. No doubt. There's always salt no matter what character gets in.

 

[Dixie Kong]

Perhaps instead of a new game it’s a remake, which is why Kirkhope isn’t involved?

What about the "smashing good time" then?

 

[Shroob]

Have you not looked at 4chan even once during this?

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Yes.

And we do implore people to report instances of the salt being more than simply angry disappointment. I.E. various trolling and flaming, which already has happened related to both characters. I hope this dumb fanwar stops already. :/

 

[Wario Bros.]

IT'S NOW THE SUPER SMASH BROS. ULTIMATE TOURNAMENT, BOIS & GALZ!

 

[Icedragonadam]

What about the "smashing good time" then?

Jumping the gun perhaps. I heard from someone on Gamefaqs that he actually did get something wrong before.

TBH he could just be lying.

 

[Gyrom8]

Was there ever a case previously of two potential newcomers being pitted against each other to such an extent?

Seems unlikely that any of the other fighter pass characters (assuming that one of them is Microsoft) will be made to form rival camps

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Yes.

Duty noted then. I'll keep that in mind. After all I am trying to better myself as a user on here.

The rivalry's really only due to 4chan blowing it out of proportion, tbh.


The Banjo camp's the 'boomers' and the Steve camp's the 'zoomers'.



Really, this **** got crazier than the Square debate.

Shinobi kind of makes that hard because of the Smashing good time hint. What makes that a certain hint for Smash is that he used it before for March 2018's direct.

Nope
This is probably the first time I've seen such a vicious rivalry between two Smash newcomers. It stopped being about Smash and instead turned into a **** flinging contest between the two groups.

 

[Icedragonadam]

So did Splatoon turn into Infinity war now or something?

 

[Gyrom8]

Final splatfest just been announced: Splatocalypse - Chaos (Pearl) vs Order (Marina)
- all shifty stations coming back
- new gear
- 72 hours event

EDIT: They're also adding all the splatfest stages after the final one as a permanent feature in the game

bretty gud

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Chaos is gonna win. Splatoon 3 is gonna be wild as **** because of it.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

On an unrelated note. The only other movie left I'm really anticipated for this year is Ad Astra and Hobbs & Shaw. Maybe Crawl as well once I find out if the dog doesn't die.

Otherwise the rest of movies I just look forward too.

 

[Aurane]

Like I said before, unless the original team is behind it, I do NOT want a new Banjo game.

I would honestly rather have him be a newcomer to Smash.

 

[Gentlepanda]

there's your shin megami tensei V bro

 

[Cosmic77]

At this point, I think fans are torn between wanting this news to be a about a Banjo game or Smash. It's possible it could be both, but that seems like a pipe dream.

Regardless, I'm staying skeptical toward it all.

I'd prefer Steve, but I don't see a point in arguing about it. First of all, one doesn't disconfirm the other. We could still end up getting both. Second, I don't even think age is what's separating these two fanbases. I've seen just as many people who are 16 y.o. and under wanting Banjo as I have with people who've played the game when it was first released. It's more of a battle of "popular character vs popular franchise".

 

[Kotor]

Chaos is our greatest strength!

 

[Shroob]

there's your shin megami tensei V bro

Idon we got it

 

[OnyanRings]

Did someone say... CHAOS ?!

 

[BlueMonk]

smash is starting

I mean yes, but also no.

I'm talking specifically about the war on 4chan, which leaks out into the rest of the net by proxy.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

smash is starting

*Prepares to potential reveal of DLC characters(s)*

And just in time before I watch Deep Rising soon.

 

[Gentlepanda]

got a good feeling about smash news (e.g. presentation announcement) with all the **** that just dropped for splatoon

we'll see
