All I can just say is that despite being only already half the year being done. Its so far has been one of the best.

Last year was great when we got bothandbut this year tops it all with not only my most anticipated film I've been waiting for five years for which was worth the wait and what I wanted in a film Godzilla 2 but just Banjo being in Smash completing it all.

I couldn't ask for anything more at this point.

It's honestly pretty neat to see regional differences. Apparently Hero is all Japan's talking about.

the wildest thing is that there's four banjo posts on the front of r/gaming but not a single post about hero

i knew there'd be regional differences in taste but ****

 

[redfeatherraven]

This is Nagito we're talking about. This ************ played Russian Roulette with 5 bullets and won.



Fine then, put on thes-

Nope too late.

Yeah, Japan is going insane over the Hero.

Meanwhile over here, we're still on "ANOTHER anime swordfighter? Pass"

Put some respect on Toriyama's name.

Right? Be like Alpharad and make it funny. Also have someone with you who gives a **** about the series.

I mean, Banjo's moves were simple as hell, similarly to how he just took K.Rool's trailer, I feel he won't get explained

I'm curious to see how exactly his specials work. We saw him fire an egg grenade, what are the intricacies of how that works. What about him firing eggs with Kazooie? We saw two different versions of that. Plenty to explain.

Looking at Japanese twitter:


It really is the exact opposite of us.


It's kinda amazing.

So I realize that I, along with staindgrey are looked at as the “Resident Evil” dudes, but I have to say, the fact that they’ve got all but 2+3 on Switch (even if the quality is suspect) is pretty awesome.

While I wouldn’t necessarily say the presentation of it was at the same level as Dragon Quest XI, they did make a big deal out of the fact that there’s a selection of RE games on the Switch.

Call it a hunch, call it bias, whatever you want to call it. I think there’s a chance Resident Evil might be the pick from Capcom.

At this point, even if i’m not sure how it would work, I could see them doing Chris, Leon, AND Jill as costumes either each other.

Thoughts?

They barely had any interruptions this direct. It was non stop footage.

That’s a rare sight (hee hee puns). Only the beginning, Pokemon, and the end got interrupted for discussion. Meanwhile the only other time was for Resident Evil.

That’s big, that out of everything in the direct they really wanted to push Resident Evil. That combined with Joker’s gun, and the heroes alts make me think pack 4 is definitely Leon with Jill and Chris.

They really want to promote resident evil and that says a lot

Only 2 more left in this pack. I am surprised that we did not get any immediate dlc, like mii costumes or something else.

oh well. I have done pretty much everything in ultimate right now, going to have to move to a new game until they release the new content.

darn.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

I feel like that's what they were trying to go for with the double reveal. Reveal one character to appeal more to the Japanese fans, and the other to western fans. Then, everyone's hyped in some way.

The guys that were saying "Nintendo is gonna reveal both Erdrick and Banjo to appeal to both audiences" are probably feeling pretty vindicated right now.

Nope too late.

That look is creepy.

Also, that's fine.

I did it myself using my nonexistent Mspaint skills.

 

[Noipoi]

America: **** anime, Banjo!

Japan: **** Looney Tunes, The Hero!

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Everyone's mood:

Replace that with Hero and you got me

You're right.


I am.

 

[Metal Shop X]

I didn't want to do this, but now, I have no choice.

I must assume my real form to make Nintendo & Sega pay for what they did to me.

Fact that they just called him Hero is still funny to me.
That's right, John Hero himself is entering Smash.

 

[MBRedboy31]

Wait, so... since Luigi has the Poltergust G-00 in Smash Ultimate... doesn’t that mean that Gooigi is present every time Luigi grabs and the Poltergust is visible? What stops him from then summoning Gooigi to double team the enemy?

 

[Noipoi]

No but like

I really like Impidimp

If you couldn’t tell from my love of Poipole Inreally like mischievous purple things

 

[Renos]

With skullgirls on the switch, anyone expecting a skullgirls rep?

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Come to think of it, I can't wait to see what BestGuyEver does for a Banjo and Kazooie hype/tribute video.

His K. Rool and Ridley videos were glorious in every way imaginable.

At this point, I think it's safe to say that we're only getting new content in X.0 patches.



So when Hero comes out it'll be 4.0, etc.

 

[Noipoi]

I’m just waiting for vinesauce

 

[Deleted member]

We need a new poll.

 

[BlueMonk]

The anime ensemble looks pretty cool, I hope they can switch spells faster than was shown in the trailer though

 

[Michael the Spikester]

We need a new poll.

If I may make an suggestion. An guess who the final 2 DLC characters might be?

 

[Deleted member]

I'm hoping he ironically played the BK intro music over the beginning of their reveal
That's all I really want out of this at this point

 

[Deleted member]

I don't care about the world hating my tastes.

I got someone I really wanted in and I will celebrate that.

 

[Iridium]

We need a new poll.

Watch Banjo vs. Hero happen, just for Hero to get stomped on. I'm not ready.

With that, I will have to shelve smash for now. Mario Maker 2 comes out in a few weeks. I also can get Sonic Manina and Freedom planet to play.

 

[pupNapoleon]

I have more great news for today.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

This cannot be understated.

When Nintendo listens... the world sings.

 

[Deleted member]

Nope if there's a "both" choice.

 

[Deleted member]

Not going to lie, now that Banjo-Kazooie are in Smash...
I really want a new Banjo game, or at least one of them ported to the Switch.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I need to see Japans reaction to Hero

 

[Deleted member]

Same.
That's the main reason I wanted them in Smash.

 

[Iridium]

I mean Banjo will definitely lead in votes no matter what, especially if people pick that and Banjo himself.

I have a better idea...
THE BEGGINING OF THE CAPCOM WARS!!!

Nah.

 

[Shroob]

So.


Who's down for Leon/Jill/Chris next with Raccoon City as a stage?


I'm game.

Heya, look inside the stoney thingy.
