I come on here every now and then, but I had no idea I was so out of the loop on what even happened a month ago apparently, to the point where some people ended up outright leaving the forums. Can someone dm me or something with what the heck I missed?

The codename was literally the character name just like Piranha Plant was. Or basically, it wasn't a hint. Just a literal name.

I hope we get some more leaks soon so things can begin getting more active here. I don't think talking about other social things is enough...

It was enough during the pre-Joker days. But Persona 5 was undoubtably a much larger talking point than Dragon Quest and Banjo-Kazooie will ever be.

Let's hope we get another code leak when the update drops.

Let's be real, the fact that we didn't know of Character 3 until Sakurai outright said he was working on Character 3 alongside how they prevented Cloud, Corrin and Bayonetta leaking the same way Roy and Ryu did should be proof that they won't let another codename slip

Hey. I love Banjo to death. You know that. But even I have to admit that there isn't much to talk about with him.

I know. But a girl can dream.

So character 4 is Nuts and Bolts Banjo and Character 5 is a new type of Mii Fighter?

Can you guys imagine if among Banjo's alternate costumes is their Nuts & Bolts design?

I can also imagine among the costumes being dragon Kazooie.

His name in Japan translates to brave

And literally every video game hero is brave in some way, so Banjo doesn’t get special treatment here.

He just gets special treatment in my heart
Which makes it a really weird codename. It's like using "Big Purple Dragon" as a codename for Ridley. :chuckle:

Being I want some silly costumes like Simon's Captain N design? I'd love it. I think all kinds of references are cool. If it weren't for Zelda literally needing a dress to function(which explains why she's ALTTP/ALBW design), I'd like her adventurer designs from the TV show and BOTW as alts. So it's a pretty justified. Thankfully mods exist. :grin:

It kept us debating over and over again didn't it?
True, that's the power of reverse psychology--I couldn't imagine a codename being that obvious, and thought of other possibilities. Smash, despite its secretive nature, has a really bad problem with keeping secrets. Accidentally releasing Castlevania's song the day beforehand, unsuccessfully blurring Spirits mode, putting "Hey, Dragon Quest is the next character" in the game code.

Move over Vergeben, Nintendo's the greatest leaker of them all.

Wait, why does Zelda need her dress to function?

I beat both Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie with 100% completion again in the last two weeks! I also got all the XBLA achievements :3

Rest assured I got all collectibles (cheato pages, notes, extra honey combs) etc though they're not pictured here.

Even going back they've been pretty bad at it, there was that Ganondorf slip up with Smash 4, and even worse was the Ness, Puff, Lucario and no Mewtwo sticker video they released before Brawl came out.

Nice!

Plan to do Grunty's Revenge, Pilot, and/or Nuts & Bolts as well?

I just hope that we get emotes of every DQ Hero when their stock icons finally appear online.

I deeply want to put Eight as my Ultimate main.

I just came up with an epic gamer theory

I’m sure you all know that every Pokémon won’t be transferrable to Sword and Shield. X and Y had a lot of Pokémon in it’s regional dex, but not all of them. ORAS filled in those gaps with things like the dex-nav and having all the legendaries available during post game. So what if the next game (say for example, gen 4 remakes) had the remaining Pokémon left out of Galar available, meaning you can transfer every Pokémon to gen 8 between Sword and Shield and the games after?

I dunno, it’s just a theory.

Wait a minute.

Didn’t something like that already happen in Gen 3 through Fire Red and Leaf Green?

Because if so, it would be an actual strong theory.

100% completing Tooie--brave soul. I am absolutely certain I have not 100% completed Tooie. Went on the Xbox app to see what achievements I did get (since my Xbox/N64 games were stolen, can't see in-game)--Kazooie had you collect all notes to get an achievement, whereas in Tooie they were like "eh, just collect one." They know the backtracking is torturous.

Oddly enough, between the two games, the only achievement I did not get was Bottle's puzzles because I had no clue that existed until this year. :lol:

Wait, why does Zelda need her dress to function?
Her dress is fully part of her animations. She's been designed around it since the start. She was never designed to have a more casual non-dress outfit. It's not nearly as key in the same way Peach's is, but it's still a vast part of her character.

Just to clarify, while animations don't sound like a key thing for a character needing them to function, it would take a lot more time to redo every animation without a dress than quickly porting some of the assets over. Though it's possible I'm wrong on this, but he might view the dress as as integral part of her character. She's presented as a princess mage as is by design, so that could be a factor too. I feel like his comment on BOTW Zelda(not suited for fighting) is probably a mistranslation of the point being made. Though for all we know, he doesn't think she's fight the same way as the other Zeldas, as he doesn't want to change her moveset, which is very similar to the message given.

Not saying the other costumes would be bad at all, of course. I do think her staying a princess mage is the best way to do it, without heavily changing her playstyle up. I don't think she needs the dress to pull this off, but I don't think the moveset needs more than buffs. Though honestly, I find the Phantom Knight kind of a meh move and I wouldn't mind if they replaced that with another kind of spell. There's tons of magic in Zelda. And she's a mage. She could do other stuff potentially. It's a neat move, that said.

Alrighy, so since MM2 is coming out in less than a week, can we press F for the Drunk, Rave, Samba, Telephone and Bird sound effects?

Oh, and custom sound effects too, but who cared for that.

From a marketing point is a strategy to convince consumers to buy them.

Kinda scummy but it works.

Been thinking, how many of you Mario Kart fans around here really enjoyed Double Dash?

Would you like to see the two characters per kart (a rider and a driver) mechanic return in a future MK installment someday?
