I wonder if other big threads were like this too. As in, frequently going off topic. You don’t get to so many posts just by talking about one thing, right? You run out of things eventually.
As the frequentor of the Saki, Ray, and Black Shadow thread, I think this is most likely the case.

Speaking of which, I need to post on Black Shadow's thread.

While we do often get off topic, we were all brought here by our desire to see Isaac playable in Smash.

Papa Geno is the only smash leak channel that isn't totally insufferable. Sometimes he covers "leaks" I think he should just ignore, like any character blog prediction post, but I think he limits himself for the most part.

Except when people just come here to calm us the hell down and try to be the contrarian for their own gain.

Like the other two who must not be named. :eye:

If there were a direct in Wednesday and Isaac was revealed at it it would be a nice little early birthday present from Daddy Sakurai.

Papa and Billy are great! I personally don't like watching any of the others though

I get it that people aren't huge F-Zero fans like I am.
But I'm glad you can find excitement in a franchise with such a expansive lore. (Even with the silliness.)

Personally, I would want Pico, Goroh, Black Shadow, or Mighty Gazille. But I realize that's too much to ask. So I would just want something after 5 games.

So I seriously am hoping for something like a revival for F-Zero that can be good for newcomers to the series, and great for veterans. I have a document I'm working on that has a neat idea of what the next title would be like. But I'm not sure how long it'll take.

But anyways, hope to attract more people to F-Zero.

After all these years, I never thought we would become the new Ridley/K. Rool. That’s an achievement in and of itself.

To be honest, I don’t mind being characterized as the chill guys. Being chill is certainly a rare attribute on the internet, and I find that it’s a pretty accurate description of us (except Xeno, Xeno don’t chill). Plus, it’s better than the stereotypes that have been made of Waluigi fans or Krystal fans or Ashley fans, so I’ll take it.
To be fair, supporters of those characters did go through their characters getting deconfirmed. I won't front, I think Isaac fans will be no different, it's human nature to be disappointed when you've invested so much time/hope into something.

If we're in the timeline of an Isaac deconfirmation, I just wished it happened when Lyn/Waluigi/Ashley/Krystal etc. got deconfirmed those early months. People were upset, there was a bunch of drama in social media, and now people have moved on and sometimes I forget that Waluigi had this big thing over his deconfirmation most of the time.

Isaac on the other hand is another highly requested character who's playable status has been dragged out so long, we're closing in on learning the last reveals for this game, so the aftermath of his deconfirmation will be the most memorable and talked about compared to the above fanbases in which case I'm sure people will joke about how the Isaac fan base is 'Chill no more LOL'.

That's just the only thing I hate about that generalization, not that it isn't great to be refferred to as, but it's annoying feeling like you're shoehorned into this nice guy type of generalization and if we act outside of that hivemind it's taken out on the Isaac fan base as a whole. Like mentioned I just find it silly that cause I'm an Isaac fan, I have to be thought of as chill. I mean I am here, don't catch me on YouTube and tumblr though lol.

If they made an fzero for the switch I would definitely buy it and try it out. I enjoyed gx (the only one I played) so I'd be down for something like that. The demand is there for a new game so it's hard to believe that Nintendo is unaware of it

Also goroh would be cool but he's confirmed as an AT right?

True, but those supporters also had the misfortune of their characters being deconfirmed. Not going to lie, no fronting, but

and that's another part of why I am thinking Isaac is playable this time around. So many fan requested characters like Krystal, Shovel Knight, Waluigi, Bomberman, Zero, Ashley and Shovel Knight all got deconfirmed quite early compared to how it would be for Isaac at this point. Sakurai hates getting people's homes and expectations up.

That's why I said "I wish"

Some wishes don't come true.

So... any discord channel smash/leaks-related that you mind sharing? I don't mind if it's toxic or not, I'm bored and I want something to think/laugh about :dr^_^:

Wii U Gamer covers leaks time to time. I don't watch him much but at least his videos aren't 10+ minutes long like some channels are and usually gets straight to the point. The reason I mention him is because I watch his top 5 most wanted and Isaac is in his list. So, another Golden Sun fan out there, which is nice.

We need more people spreading the good word of the Golden Sun and how it will rise again!

Oh man if primarina got in I'd imagine there would be a lot more hate than what we see for incineroar lol

Well, when I was talking about generalizations, I was referring to how often Waluigi fans get labeled as all trolls, Ashley fans as all lolicons and Krystal fans as all furries. As a fan of all three characters, getting labeled as just ‘chill’ is a wonder in comparison.

Hahaha! I thought the same too! That's crazy! But hey, he's a nice guy though. Speaking of which, I'm still glad that Etika is a Golden Sun fan as well. My respect for him increased because of it. Hopefully he'll get the Joy Con Boyz to root for Isaac. But we'll see...

Not bad. If only you let it be known to us later. Just to see how much traction it would have gotten. Oh well. Nice job.
Eh, who knows maybe it will get some and it will be fun to watch it grow together. But seeing the reactions it got on 4chan, it probably won't lift of. Unless it's getting shared around on reddit or something.

How about Blood Falcon? I know he's an alt costume for Captain Falcon, but perhaps for the next SSB game.

Also, I have wishes that I want to see on the Switch/other platforms. Like James Bond games (Who's going to grab the game license to make the games now?), Super Robot Wars/Taisen Original Generation Collection for the West/East and Super Robot Wars/Taisen whatever other series, but in the East in English (If Bandai Namco wants money, they could put it on the Switch and PC as well instead of just on the PS platforms.) but I have more than that, lol. Viewtiful Joe is another one of my wishes to see on the Switch because with the way Capcom is doing things right now with bringing older IPs back, we'll be seeing the IP back in the future. A Yu-Gi-Oh game would be amazing that is closer to the older era with Yugi and the others. The Wonderful 101 would be cool to port to the Switch with a sequel, Pikmin 1-3 to the Switch, a Final Fantasy Tactics sequel and a Snatcher revival with the original on the Switch.

There's other games like F-Zero, Advance Wars, Battalion Wars, Custom Robo, Wave Race and Golden Sun, but that's been spoken about a lot. Langrisser and Digimon are getting games on the Switch, so it's cool. Dynasty Warriors 9 is...well, still being worked on with new content so I don't expect it to exist for years if it comes to the Switch...

The issue is that's Blood Falcon's only difference between CF is the colors, the emblems and the personality.

He's actually just a clone who obeys Black Shadow.

But eh. Dark Pit is here.

His vehicle handles differently too, but I don't suppose we were talking about F-Zero Racing :p

Sometimes I think they loved it when Isaac fans didn't talk lol. But yeah it's tame in comparison, most of the insults goes towards Isaac himself i.e. being called generic anime swordsman rather than us being labeled something derogatory.

Also as someone who was always a water starter purist and chose them every game no matter what, it sucked when Popplio seemed to be considered the most disliked among the Gen 7 starters. And I saw it joked about how it'd be funny if Popplio ended up with the best third evolution and thus everyone would end up liking them the most. Of course while Rowlet ended up with a pretty cool third evolution and thus the fan favorite. It was pretty great seeing Popplio go from the ugly duckling to swan type scenario and it's one of my favorite water starter designs.

Though I know Primarina is the least likely of the Gen 7 to be in Smash but it'd be cool to see it represented in the new Pokemon stage, Pokeball mon or whatever.

I thought that was for Japan only? As far as I know from most popular to least is decidueye, incineroar and then primarina overall. I can't really back up that claim, but that's what I recall seeing from Twitter polls made by the official pokemon account back in the sun and moon days

From what I’ve heard it’s the opposite. Decidueye gets talked about a lot in Smash circles, but Pokémon fans don’t seem to care.

That is why I am hoping Chuggaaconroy picks up Golden Sun as his next playthrough. Just him playing the series would sky rocket its popularity and draw leagues of attention to it.

Phoenix is possible, though Black Shadow and Blood Falcon are more important.

Also I wish his FS was that one from the anime.
Phoenix is WAAAAAY too out there. Niche even for F-Zero.

I think the Blood Hawk and Blue Falcon are meant to be complete opposites in terms of racing style.

Though, Blood Falcon is just a literal clone. So idk. I'm still a bit irked that's blood Falcon didn't make it, but Dark Pit did. But whatever.
What is Black Shadow's Height anyways? Is he taller than GDorf?


That can't be accurate.

I'm not sure then tbh

But in my opinion primarina probably makes the least sense out of the three as a smash character, like how would she move? What moves does she have in sun/moon that would translate into a well rounded smash moveset? Those are my thoughts on it

Primarina was my favorite in Sun! When I played X, I chose Chestpin first and then Charizard. So when I got Sun, I was like, "Well, I already did Grass and technically Fire, so Water starter it is. Best decision ever! She was the only one I ever used to destroy any Trainer in my path. Rarely did I need my other 5 party members because Primarina was just OP. I don't care what people think, she's awesome!

That would be cool. Blood Falcon could be the slippery kind with how he moves.
You know, the more I think about it. Sakurai's choices don't make much sense.

You've got Blood Falcon. That's got barely an aesthetic difference with Captain Falcon, has a different personality, is a literal clone of Falcon, but isn't in Smash as a character.

Then you've got Dark Pit who barely has an aesthetic difference with Pit, has a different personality, and is a clone of Pit, but HE'S the one with a dedicated spot on the roster.

Thanks Sakurai. Your effort to please the F-Zero fans is incredibly top-notch.

The problem is that Emile does a **** ton of research and practice runs before doing a LP, so it would take a while if he hasn't started on making it. It could be one of the 'long due' he mentioned would do next year.

I have clue if its accurate but hey I'm ryu / snake height :0

Also I wonder if Phoenix is like Geno. Is he Sega?

Phoenix is in the later games. So he's owned by Nintendo.

It's just that most casual F-Zero fans never have heard of him.

Primarina DEFINITELY would work in Smash! There are so many moves each Pokémon has plus their strange Pokédex entries that as long as the Pokémon doesn’t have a strange shape/size...it will work! I can easily make a moveset for Primarina right now but this is our Golden boy’s thread so I’ll control myself. Lol

Also, Primarina is the most popular final evolution of the starters. The most popular starter when including pre-evolutions is undoubtedly Rowlet!

Here's a fun thing to do! What main Pokemon would Isaac and his party and Felix and his party have? (You can include Matthew's party as well.)
I honestly can't think of any. :/
