Night y'all. I'm off to bed. Today had been fun.

Might come on in the morning for a bit otherwise I might not be here until late tomorrow night due to going to the border and then one of my local parks to celebrate Canada Day.

 

[Will]

Thanks for giving me that image

“Ay boy! What’s with the sword? You onna them Japanese ‘Ann-ee-may’ swordsmen?”

“N-no, mate! Not Japanese at all! Swear on me mum!”

i mean shulk is an alien, he gets by on that alone

that's not a spoiler, that's just common sense you piece together within the 1st 10 minutes of the game because literally everyone is.

I just don't know..even amongst Mother fans, I see more people requesting Kumatora or Ninten than Porky..and how would Porky even play? He's not a fighter and only really fights in his Mech which would make him a bit too large (since him on the in-side should still be comparable in size to Ness). He fits better as a boss, so I'd love to see his Spirit missing because he's going to return as a Boss or something in some Boss Battle mode.

Granted, this is Sakurai we're talking about, the man that included trophies of Dixie Kong and King K. Rool in Melee but not Diddy Kong, the man that took until Brawl to give Mario his most iconic alternate colours, Fire Mario, only to take it away in Smash Ultimate. He sometimes doesn't include the obvious.

As for Simon, the only reason he wasn't highly requested is because of Snake, many people wanted Snake to return and didn't think a company would get two characters, they also thought Konami's recent actions had made it so Sakurai wouldn't work with them. Castlevania is a very popular series and had Snake not been in it would have been requested more, though then it would be between choosing Simon, Richter, or Alucard. Once Bayonetta was in (showing companies can have multiple characters) and Snake was shown to return (showing Sakurai would work with Konami), many people wanted Castlevania representation..the only problem was it came at the same time as Vergeban's leaks.

I just don't think that a Mother rep would be a good fit for DLC and wouldn't really fit in with the other DLC characters (bar Piranha Plant) since they are all characters that are very 'Hype' for a lot of people. I don't really think a niche character like Porky from a niche series like Mother would generate the same reactions we've been seeing with the likes of Joker, Hero, and Banjo-Kazooie..even amongst the DLC for 3DS/Wii U he wouldn't have fit since they were all either Veterans or characters from Popular Games/Series.

****'s missing, that's all I see. It shouldn't be missing at all. We got tons of bosses that weren't in the final cut. Smash 4 bosses, even.

It's highly suspicious. I personally don't buy that Porky's invalid because he's not one of "the greats" that got added in. Sakurai never said "oh buy the fighters pass bro it's gonna be lit", no, he said "only buy it if you're sure enough you want to". That doesn't sound like a hypeman, it sounds like your friend about to warn you about if you should really buy that 1980s vintage garfield phone when you're drunk at 3 AM. None of the major Mother antagonists outside of Masked Man even got a Spirit. If he actually doesn't end up being playable or shows up in some form, then it's obvious to me that he was at least planned for something. But the fact that there are plenty of things missing that could be added, plus me expecting a first party of some kind in this pass, leads me to Porky Minch.

That's my game theory, and if I get it right, I'll be right. If I'm wrong, I'll be wrong. My disappointment is already immeasurable in this fighting pass, I have literally zero things to lose.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Let's be real here. There ain't no one who's gonna play Solo.

I am. Second costume of his, which is more of a dark blue. That and Eight's second costume, which is grey. Why? They're callbacks to the characters I like the most, DQ1's Protagonist and Terry from DQ Monsters and DQ6.

 

[Noipoi]

Aight so if I get an extra 60 down the road I’ll get DQ11 for the Switch. And I’m definitely gettin Banjo Kazooie for the 360. It’s 15 bucks, I’d be a moron not to.

Like my dear friend Scoliosis Jones I like to play the games newcomers are from to get more familiar with them and maybe even get a new main. I wasn’t feeling K Rool last August, but in September I played the original DKC and come December I loved the big guy. I tried to do the same with Joker but, we already know how that went.

You're disappointed in the Fighter Pass? I know the fact that I'm a Banjo leaves my opinion skewed, but I think it's been great so far.
I've never played Persona, but Joker is fun as **** to play, I might pick up P5 if I get a chance (still hoping it might get a Switch port at some point), and The Hero looks so cool that I'm going to get DQ11S when it comes out.

So you're telling me that you believe this controversy shouldn't be mentioned here yet at the same time you bring it up in the first place as if no one is going to ask questions even if the entire context is removed like we should all already know it like we live off of drama for sustenance?

Advanced level thinking, opo.

 

[EricTheGamerman]

Porky is basically Cartman if he gained total control of the timeline and that’s awesome


Oh I love Zacian too, he’s my favorite.

Though I’m gettin both versions so, y’know.

This is a completely legitimate question, not to meant to criticize you or further bring up the specific Sw/Sh controversies, but out of curiosity, why are you getting both?

I used to do the same thing when I was younger and Diamond and Pearl were coming out, but now that I’m older it’s really hard for me to justify buying both versions of Pokémon other than inevitable collector status haha. Especially with how much other great stuff is coming out these next few months.

There’s lots of stuff missing across the game though that would seemingly otherwise be in. Stuff like the Fire Mario alt, Chrom’s victory tune was downright wrong, Final Fantasy still doesn’t have any content, the DK rap is shortened, etc. With 1300+ spirits in the game, it seems like a strange hill to die on when one spirit is missing despite them already having like 20+ Mother spirits and a near absurd level of content for the series (relative to how big it is as a series) already in the game. Occam’s razor would dictate a ton of solutions to that before we get to Porky as playable.

Like I’m not going to say it’s impossible, but my assessment of another Mother character period isn’t good. I’d be happy with him, but he also feels like one of the biggest long shots in speculation...

 

[Will]

Chrom’s victory tune was downright wrong

at least its fixed now lol

Like I’m not going to say it’s impossible, but my assessment of another Mother character period isn’t good. I’d be happy with him, but he also feels like one of the biggest long shots in speculation...

my coins are all in on this regardless if its seen as a long shot or not

out of all the mother characters they added as spirits, they just absolutely miss the two true antagonists of the entire series. call me crazy, but this is something thats being slept on and not even considered. give me a tinfoil hat or something, because at least this is better than a text leak imo.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Like, I don't think Porky is likely myself. But the spider mech doesn't sound feasible for playable as is. But the lack of a spirit does suck and hope we at least get that as DLC at some point. It's the only missing Brawl boss too, so I do feel it sticks out a bit. Key term being a "bit".

 

[EricTheGamerman]

at least its fixed now lol

Or maybe they just missed them because they made a ton of spirits and just didn’t feel like exerting extra work for a Spirit battle? While it’s a bit weird to be missing, it’s also a minuscule part of the least consequential part of the game. At a certain point we have to imagine Spirits were less of a priority than practically everything else in the game, so I really don’t think it’s super weird that we end up with a couple of holes.

I’d also be more likely to wager him coming back alongside Rayquaza and others for a revamped Boss Rush mode that comes with a numbered content update. A bunch of the ground work is presumably already there with bosses in game and additional fights already designed previously in Brawl.

It’s also the top of my wish list for modes to be added to Smash lol.

Smash community: Decides that throwing a crab at Hbox is worthy of a lifetime ban due to risk of hurting Hbox

Yeah sorry opo but that was pretty uncalled for. This is a Social for discussing with the whole thread.

Do you not remember kindergarten?

If you bring for your self you bring for the whole class.

This applies here as. You don’t bring a topic in and then not bring the topic as one for discussion but shutting down anyone interested in it.

EDIT: google doesn’t even have anything from this month, direct result is from March which I doubt was what was being referenced. So again great logic opo

Cuz I can’t choose between Scorbunny and Sobble

So I’m getting one of them in each version

I might not get both, but I’m pretty sure I will.

Because it's lazy and tactless when you have the technology to figure things out for yourself, and I'm free to vent regardless. I shouldn't have to explain why outright going "Ally is a literal predatory pedophile" might be tactless in this thread given what's happened here the past couple of months, but evidently, going by the people liking your post, this thread has an issue with reading between the lines and can only see things when they're right in front of people's faces. Whether the lack of looking into something is out of laziness or ineptitude is up to the individual, and frankly I don't care which it is, but god damn.

If I remember correctly March was when the accusations first showed up with Tamim saying Ally sexually abused CaptainZack back when he was a minor. About 2 days ago CaptainZack tweeted a picture with a note saying "Tamim was telling the truth". But just like with the Hyuga situation people aren't going to care about the fact that a crime was committed with a victim but rather care about the top player

Hey if you don’t want to be spoken to like that, don’t treat others like that. Hell you did the very same thing to will twice now.

And why discuss a man accused of being a pedophile if you think it’s inappropriate. Which it absolutely is, and you knowing talked about it.

So if it’s a problem why would you mention it to begin with? There’s venting but this really isnt where you should vent about him even if it is slightly smash related. There’s a reason this type of talk has been cut down. There should be no reason for you to bring it up knowing as you said it’s a touchy subject. To make it worse your talking down on any others that asked a simple ****ing question.

Your behavior was unwarranted from the start, so you should t have expected pleasant response

That's my game theory, and if I get it right, I'll be right. If I'm wrong, I'll be wrong. My disappointment is already immeasurable in this fighting pass, I have literally zero things to lose.

Shulk's not really an alien, he's just from a parallel dimension/spoilers

Spoiler

he's an artificial human essentially

Sakurai is a strange guy, like I said, in Melee he had trophies for Dixie Kong and K. Rool, but Diddy Kong was absent from the game entirely aside from lines in Dixie's trophy and the DK Rap..sometimes he just doesn't include things that seem like they should be obvious, like the aforementioned Diddy Kong trophy and a Fire Mario colour in 64, Melee, and Ultimate.

Yeah, Sakurai doesn't ever try to hype something up though, that's not his style, there's also the point that Nintendo chose the DLC character options and gave them to Sakurai, I can't see them just arbitrarily picking Porky of all characters to be one.

I also just don't see any EarthBound or even 1st/2nd Party characters because each DLC Fighter comes with DLC Spirits and, well, all of Nintendo's 1st and 2nd Parties are pretty well covered..only a handful of characters are left to make Spirits off of. I am surprised to see no EarthBound Beginnings version of Giygas given how perfectly he'd work with having Mewtwo as the fighter for his Spirit Battle (EarthBound Giygas doesn't really have a 'form', just a background image..and, you know, you can not comprehend his true form..) whereas Porky's absence is curious..but likely either just a case of Sakurai not doing the obvious again, being saved for some DLC Update Boss (I could totally see more bosses added in, especially ones from Brawl and 3DS/Wii U), or Sakurai believing that the Absolutely Safe Capsule being Porky representation since, well, he IS inside of it during the battle against it.

Since Sakurai doesn't always include the obvious, I could totally see him or his team just not thinking of Porky when it came to Spirits to include or some reason..just having one of those absent minded moments where you forget something important despite it being..well..important. His Spirit missing doesn't mean anything was planned at all, it just wasn't included..that's possibly all it was. Its possible Sakurai wanted to include some of the quirkier elements of EarthBound while still the full party and a handful of important characters, so some human characters weren't included to make room for quirky ones like Master Blech and Ness' Father.

I'm shocked that anyone can say they are disappointed by the Fighters Pass. Even if you aren't interested in the characters, the ones they've chosen are huge for the series.

I don't entirely disagree especially if it's as dangerous as people say the crab could have been, but the point was that throwing a crab is worthy of a lifetime ban but sexual assault somehow got a year at best and absolutely nothing at worst

It's shocking information for such a big accusation. I don't know the guy, nor do I really want to meddle with whatever he's doing because there are plenty of people already out there doing something either for or against him. It isn't a crime to at least be informed.

Don't ever think you're in a position to talk down to me. Not taking that, Z.

I tried looking it up and found nothing that explained the situation. Just a bunch of links to posts that make no sense out of context. In fact, the few things I did find made no links to any pedohile stuff and so I'm even less sure what Google came up with was relevant to this.

While it's only now I can see why you didn't want to go into it fully, that doesn't really excuse you from assuming people's confusion could only come from laziness or ineptitude.

Ok, regardless acting like a quick google search would answer everyone’s questions was a very wrong outlook. Especially when none of them outright say anything specific. No one is going to click on a link that’s from a few months back, especially when the incident in question back then could be totally unrelated to something posted today.

I don't entirely disagree especially if it's as dangerous as people say the crab could have been, but the point was that throwing a crab is worthy of a lifetime ban but sexual assault somehow got a year at best and absolutely nothing at worst

Oh my ****ing god are we seriously doing the altright thing of deflecting the terrible stuff just because someone who brought light to it wasn't nice enough?

did I ever say I sided with ally? No.

I hardly care or know much on he smash comp scene. Regardless I will always hold the mindset that if your doing ****ed up **** or breaking the law you need to answer to it, no matter who you are. But talking to others and how you respond to them shouldn’t be overlooked either

No one is going to click on a link that’s from a few months back, especially when the incident in question back then could be totally unrelated to something posted today.
did I ever say I sided with ally? No.

I hardly care or know much on he smash comp scene. Regardless I will always hold the mindset that if your doing ****ed up **** or breaking the law you need to answer to it, no matter who you are. But talking to others and how you respond to them shouldn’t be overlooked either

By focusing on Opo's wording instead of the actual thing that matters, Ally being a rapist, you ARE deflecting it whether it's intentional or not. He's going to get away with it because of the Smash community defending that **** and there's likely never going to be an article on this site about it

Oh my ****ing god are we seriously doing the altright thing of deflecting the terrible stuff just because someone who brought light to it wasn't nice enough?

...pretty sure it’s nothing like that. Pretty sure people are just saying that posting a cryptic teaser in a public forum then insulting people for asking what’s going on is a bit of a **** move.

Like, people do that ALL the time in this thread. Post something sad/cryptic/inflammatory in hopes that someone will ask them what’s going on and they can start a conversation. This didn’t seem any different than those other dozens on times, but then people are getting chewed out for it. That’s all.

Not everything thing is a mass conspiracy to suppress the truth Gwen.
