Smash speculation is totally wild no matter what angle you look at it from. Outside, inside, upside-down, underneath, whatever.

Anyone else remember Bigley?


What a weird, weird fanbase we exist in.
It’s the culmination of tons of fanbases (which are all weird af) that’s also spawned it’s own dedicated fanbase (which is also weird af)

Let's not forget the games featuring Bigley. The horrible, horribly made fangames...

Anyways, hope you guys had a great Fourth. Mine was great thanks to that surprise Kyogre alone. I don't care that I can't transfer it; I finally have something on par with my grandma's Raikou!
Course, there's still this canker sore I gotta work out... I just had one a few weeks back, why does this keep happening to me?

If it’s on your gum, gargle some salt water. Rub it directly on the sore with a cotton swab if you wanna. Do that for a couple days and it'll go away.

Anyway tell me your deepest darkest secrets
I genuinely enjoy games that the majorities of fanbases seem to hate, like Shadow the Hedgehog and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.
I also get a good kick out of going onto /v/ for the sake of looking at the dashed hopes of the Stevebros and their use of the Grotesque Steve model. Yes, I am that crazy.

Nuts and Bolts is a fantastic game.

Shadow the Hedgehog I haven't played in a very long time so I can't really remember how good or bad it was.

From what I hear Nuts & Bolts is a good game, just not the Banjo game the world needed at that moment.

I like to think of it less as a Sonic game and more like a ridiculously fast take on Ratchet & Clank. If you like a healthy mix of gunplay and platforming, it's good for playing if you feel like you're having an off-day. The fun is best had if you try not to take the story to seriously, though. And don't bother trying to complete it 100%, there's, like, 60+ different pathways you can tackle the story (thus, 60+ playthroughs of Westopolis).

Corrupted models in CTR range from horrifying to hilarious.

Someone basically had spaghetti monster Ami.
Pop quiz!

How do you stop you’re most embarrassing memories from invading your mind at 4 am?
A lot of things come to mind. None I can say here.

I think about the embarassing things other people have done and remember everyone has their own little problems to attend to.

I enjoyed Nightime stages in Sonic Unleashed.

Get it, it's dark because-*gets shot*
Ngl, I wanna try Unleashed sometime in the future not only for the visual presentation but also to check those stages.

By remembering the wise words said by Alfred in Batman Begins:

"Why do we fall? To learn how to get up".

Well, it's finally over.

No more exams for a good time.

Now we wait and see if the ones I had this week went great. If that was the case... I'll enter university after the summer ends.

When you have that idea for a Mario Maker stage and are pretty much sure it's been done but you haven't seen it yet so you can keep on pretending that it's an entirely original idea

Yeah

I mean, the level have been making is a remake of a idea that wasn't that original to begin with on SMM1.

So really, you shouldn't worry much about the base idea, it's what unique ideas you put on top of it that will make it special or not compared to others levels.

I took a nap, so I couldn't do this at midnight exactly. But this is how I thought I'd celebrate these five years of activity... by going back to the first avatar I used on this site. It feels like home going back to it, actually. The last time I showed off my own character on a Smash graphic designers Discord server (which I regret joining in), the reaction was very polarizing. I think it's because of the stigma associated with original characters, mostly thanks to Sonic recolors, which I frown upon.

Since 2010, when the 3DS was first unveiled to the public, I was really into the idea of a portable Smash Bros. game, and it was only after having a change of heart in the summer of 2014 that I signed up because I thought there was something to appreciate in this community-- not the competitive kind! I was supposed to just discuss my thoughts on the 3DS version, but things escalated pretty quickly and I ended up becoming very active thanks to numerous social threads. I really enjoyed that first year I had. I think things took a darker turn afterwards for a myriad of reasons, but without this site anyways I wouldn't have been able to interact with you guys at all (and having set three non-regulars to ignore shows how much I value your company despite my inactivity). Cheers!

True - I imagine there will be similar-ish levels as the idea is exploiting the full potential of a certain powerup, but I doubt there will be the exact same take on it

Remains to be seen what can actually be done with this powerup though ... to the lab! After I get out of work

Even if someone else had a similar idea, their execution will probably be different.

Heck I'd argue execution is more important then the ideas themselves.

I just realized something. If Mother 3 ever got a release here in the states, it would probably just be called EarthBound Advanced. Because it was a GBA game.

I know. My copy has a consistent glitch that says you have to beat all of Tropy’s time trials to unlock him. That challenge is rediculously hard, so I hope they fix it soon so I can find out how you actually unlock him.

Hey staindgrey staindgrey , Activision added Susan Storm (Invisible Woman) to CTR NF!

Unlocking her was harder than finding Luigi in SM64, btw.

The freaking mode with the crystals in Adventure Mode doh.

They give you such little time to get a load of crystals that it almost feels impossible to unlock Fake Crash.

I wish they at least kept the unlock code for Fake Crash, since not even a guide can help me beat the purple token missions.

I was able to do Fake Crash. It was damn hard (except the final one which was so rediculously easy). But I did it. You have to be pinpoint perfect which I’m not a fan of. Honestly, they should have just kept in the unlock codes for the og CTR characters. Heck, I’d even pay a micro transaction at this point.

YOU HEAR THAT ACTIVISION! Somebody actually WANTS micro transactions! This is your big chance!

Now this... It ain’t it chief.
We should just use their feedback or support email to request the addition of the Fake Crash and N.Trophy codes from the PS1 version.

They really are doing stuff based on the emails they receive, so if we get enough people asking them about that they will likely update the two codes in.

I'm really not looking forward to trying to unlock N. Tropy. It seems like all of the challenges amount to being told "great! You smashed most if not all of the time crates and barely completed the race in enough time to get a relic! Now shave ten seconds off of your time somehow."

And that's just on the easier stages; I'm dreading the required time for Pinstripe's stage, which reminds me of the more recent Rainbow Roads with the sheer number of bottomless pits.

Yeah, I think they should have kept the codes to quickly unlock Tropy and Fake Crash.

However, microtransactions are still a big NO from my part.

I know you're mostly joking, but that's a legitimate tactic some companies use nowadays. Make the grind so unbearable that when microtransactions are added, they'll be praised. I doubt CTR is doing that but its important not to fall into that trap.

Yeah, the best thing on this case would be to use the Game’s official support/feedback email and probably ask Beenox about the idea of updating the Fake Crash and Troph unlock codes from the PS1 version back in.

I’m sure that if people did that they would highly likely do so, since they’ve been updating the game based on those emails so far.

We don’t need microtransactions to solve this problem, and asking for them isn’t the best reaction.

What the crap is it with big companies and micro transactions? Feels kinda cheap imo.
