Come on. In brawl his specials were all identical. And remember, your talking to someone who doesn’t give a caramel about frame data and tier lists and “competitive” aspects. So Non-special moves tend to blur together in my mind. I can acknowledge how different they may be if you spend a half hour explaining it in a video, but from my actual play experience, it goes unnoticed. It’s just “character attacks with their main weapon or body part” in my mind.


Technically.... Duck Hunt and BJ were still revealed pre-launch. Of the Wii U version. But 3DS was already out.
Even their specials are far from identical. Wolf's Blaster has a bayonet for Pete's sake, and fires a single slow shot, while Fox does weak rapidfire damage. Wolf's is closer to Breegul Blast than Fox's Blaster.

And their up specials are also totally different. Wolf being a non-flaming multihit with far less startup and all.

Now they are definitely. But that was de-cloning him from brawl. And even then they’re functionally very similar.

God, I hate nothing more than people replying to posts without knowing/acknowledging the context that the post was intended for. It gets so annoying dude.

Sometime this week, I went with my father to make some Christmas purchases.

As of now, I can confirm that for this year I will get these things for Christmas:

>Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order
>Pokémon Shield (tagging Noipoi Noipoi for this one)
>Layton’s Mystery Journey Switch (tagging Professor Pumpkaboo Professor Pumpkaboo for this one)
>Fire Emblem Three Houses (tagging staindgrey staindgrey , Opossum Opossum and Cutie Gwen Cutie Gwen for this one)
>And the SEGA Mega Drive Mini (tagging Hat N' Clogs Hat N' Clogs and MainJPW MainJPW for this one)

Some stuff that could also happen but isn’t granted or coming from my father or his brother are some specific Funko pops and an official Dragon Quest artbook of Akira Toriyama’s work.

"Identical"

You know, because there's no difference between a small rapid fire laser and a large, slow plasma blast thing.

No, the differences I mentioned were even present in Brawl. They weren't original to Ultimate.

It released this year and it is similar to the NES/SNES Classic but made by SEGA.

I heard great things about it due to the game selection and the fact it isn’t made by At Games.


I was also able to hold it in person, and I dare to say that phisically it surprisingly has more attention to detail for the original model than the SNES Classic.

Is it regularly sold in GameStop?

It's great, I picked one up last month and I'm so glad I did.

Just discovered that before FNAF was made, the dev actually made a Metroid fangame. Thought that was pretty interesting.

Perhaps this explains the monster we witnessed yesterday. Noipoi Noipoi

Just ran across a five year old change.org petition that gave me a chuckle.

I'll let its description tell you:

"As a huge fan of Super Smash Bros. Melee, it displeases me greatly to see Masahiro Sakurai emotionally abuse the fanbase to such an extreme degree and it really hurts when Nintendo betrays us by taking his side instead of trying to stop him. I would like Microsoft to purchase the rights to the game Super Smash Bros. Melee so that they may release an HD version of the game on the Xbox One with new stages, Master Chief as a playable character, and Xbox Live Gold support for online multiplayer. I would also like for them to file a restraining order against Masahiro Sakurai, so that he may never think about, talk about, or go near a copy of Melee again. We in the competitive Melee community would like nothing more than to be free from the oppressive shackles of Sakurai, and we would love nothing more than for a company as great as Microsoft to be the ones to do so."

Funny that Microsoft actually got the chance to touch a Smash game (though in a different way).:ultbanjokazooie:

This dude has some guts to make such a bold claim on behalf of the entire Melee competitive community.

He’s said before that he’s a big fan of older games. The charity game he revealed last night includes a refrence to Zero Suit Samus.

Ye.

Bonnie’s get up in this game is a refrence to Vegeta, and Foxy‘s outfit is a reference to Star Fox.

That's pretty hilarious imo.

They were? I guess I’m just remembering Brawl wrong. Sorry.
For reference, I think Wolf's only new moves in Ultimate are his neutral aerial, forward smash, dash attack, final hit of jab, and obviously his Final Smash. And I think a few of his throw animations.

Take that minorities, Melee fans are still the most oppressed group of all.

Speaking of mini consoles, I'm hoping to get the Atari Flashback 9 Gold soon, then the Turbografx-16 Mini comes out in in March I think, and I just found out last night that there's a Commodore 64 Mini.

I've been reading a bunch of my older posts, and god damn, I am like the spitting image of the whole "Character who has no clue wtf they are doing and gets into trouble all the time because of it, but manages to get away with little to no-consequences because lucky" trope of characters.

My old-self at Smashboards could be compared with Shadow the Hedgehog.

I wasn’t a person of bad intentions, but life was hitting me so hard back then that I had a really edgy behaviour and was kinda rude without even trying to.

Thank god all of that is over.

Damn, I kinda feel you on that

The idea of literally anyone hearing your voice work in-game can really cause some concerns and worries inside of us.

But even then, you should really stay positive. If they hired you for the character, they totally believe you will do a great job for the vision they have.

I wanted to share a clip from a Kirby Right Back At Ya episode where Chef Kawasaki voices a character for a tv show he thought would not voice right but in the end turned out to be a great job as some sort of motivation for you. But I couldn’t find it on Youtube.

Thanks man! :)

Also, this game is in space, so I thought I'd listen to some sci-fi music to set me up. Really gets me in the right mood. I should do this more often.
