Fatman came back to reply to Wario making excuses
Actually, I've been back for about a week now. My schedule's stuffed during the school year and summer is when things lightened up. Two jobs, a master's degree, and side work with about 30 student organizations has kept me busy. Despite my prolonged lurking, I didn't want to just suddenly show up when the Smash Ball dropped next Tuesday and, I'll admit, I'm kind of tripping over my own nostalgia right now.

No wonder you have little time for much else. One job and a bachelors degree is enough for me, can't imagine juggling that slate.

I'm sorry, I didn't know Deep Silver and Sony were AMERICAN!!! And if they, they aren't even wearing a flag on their heads like TRUE AMERICANS!!!
Deep Silver commissioned a 3rd rate studio from Irvine, CA to work on PTE.
Sony used a large portion of their perennially successful Santa Monica Studio (from Santa Monica, CA) in order to assemble SuperBot which produced PSASBR.

I'll concede to you the point that they probably weren't wearing flags on their heads though.

Working in America = Being American, amirite=??? :awesome: :smirk: :b: NO!!!! :mad:

They don't have enough America American to make an American American game like say The Last of Us. Now that right there is an AMERICA AMERICAN GAME IN AMERICA'S AMERICAN AMERICA... CA!!!

Star goes back further than me, in terms of consistantly being around (Not joining date). And I've been here consistantly since Jan, 1st, 2010

He used to have this Megaman villain as his avi, and that's how I remembered him. I remember when Oasis started showing up more, and I didn't like him initially. He had that Sukapon / Ridley duck avi.

I've been lurking smashboards since 2004, and posting since early 2007. That's when my reign of terror GREATNESS truly had its' seeds planted! :shades:

I used to have that Link Final Smash flying avatar, and then two different Toon Link avatars. Now I'm busy being an America American for the Americas' America.

I honestly only remember you once the 2011 announcement happened. But it was a long time ago, so I'm sure I don't remember everything.

I remember Fatman and Psycho. Posting back then. Once we get Toise back posting regularly (IF, I suppose), and Pieman, we'll have pretty much all the oldest posters back. (Toise, Pieman, Arcade, TTK, FMOI, and Chu)

That typo was bothering me.

I think I found out about this site mid 2008 and starting posting in August I think? Yeah I'm a smash toddler. I didn't join these discussions though until that brief mention at E3 '11

It's funny because it kind of is but, god, so much as changed in my own life since Brawl was announced and I almost can't believe it's about to happen all over again. I'm surprised so many of you are still here but it's welcoming, to say the least.
Yeah, it is pretty unique. Guys like you, me, Oasis, Psycho, Omega, samusrules, Thrillhouse (formerly hemightbegiant), Eternal Phoenix Fire, Buzz Saw, Youko, *pulls out his Michael Jackson voice* Smooth Criminal, Hyper, ethanrodgers, Diddy Kong, Creo, Arc, Pieman, TTK, Samurai Panda, ChronoBound, etc. are still all here on Smash Boards or related sites.

Now if only people like YEAHDUDE, Adi, Blackadder, 2nd Stamp, lunnnnniiii (he came back once 2 years ago; together across like half a dozen to a dozen small sites that were "havens" from smashbaords the two of us, we spammed at least 5,000 comments each, mostly quoting each other and going all over the board in terms of subject and spam and stuff), homelessvagrant, Del Money, RDK, Wiseguy, and demoncaterpie would come back... :crying:

How embarrassing, for the past 8 years, I've only been here for the equivalent of about 4 of them.

At least I joined pretty early, back when I was really into Melee and was trying to find tournaments with my bud, so my join date makes me look cool.

Yeah, it's hard to remember anyone who joined from the Sonic reveal on until like mid 2009 for me! :laugh:

Samurai Goroh? K. Rool? Takamaru? My man :shades:

Can't agree with you on the Pokemon Trainer part though, there really isn't any need at all to "upgrade" or replace the Pokemon he already has. He could lose the whole shared health aspect though

Welcome to the forums btw

Thanks for agreeing on the characters i suggested (i have more to suggest later as well), but i think i created a small misunderstanding about Pokemon trainer. What i meant was that i think they'll end up replacing Red with Ethan (or as others call him, Gold) and have him use the Johto starters. However, i think it would be really cool if they just decide to keep both Pokemon Trainers in the game. Just imagine the fun we would have to play as two Pokemon trainers in a smash bros match. I think it would be fun to play as Red while someone else plays as Ethan (Gold) in a match.

I've been mostly active during my tenure on the site. Though I am relatively new to this upcoming Smash section deal.

We're not going to get a new Pokémon Trainer. That's pretty much a fact.

Red/Ash/whatever the heck he is (he's voiced by the same voice actresses who voices Ash in the Pokémon Anime), Charizard (especially; he's arguably the most popular Pokémon after Pikachu, and that's something even Sakurai has stated in the pre-Melee release poll thing), Squirtle, and yes, even Ivysaur are far more popular than any starter Pokémon after them.

Why replace far more popular, wanted, and liked characters with lesser characters=???

Also, we got way too few character slots to give them to another 3 characters. We'll be lucky to get a dozen newcomers, so why spend 25% of those spots on just another Pokémon Trainer and their 3 Pokémon=???

Do yourself a favor and bookmark the link for Nintendo's E3 Direct so you can watch the stream when you're off work. When you are finished then you can join us all in our elation or tears.
Like I posted earlier I don't have work on the day of Nintendo Direct. I was just replying that Fatmanonice has a job with a computer and I don't. So not only will I join you guys in our elation or tears but be there to FEEL it and SHARE it.

But thanx for the :link2: and I bookmarked it.

Let him get scared. His latest incarnation sucks anyway >_>. Maybe if he gets scared enough he'll run away to train to get better for the next game.

Hopefully as many of the good ole smashboarders as we can get!!!

Man, I would love to roll with guys like homelessvagrant, demoncaterpie, luni, C@sh Mooney, Blackadder, coldbusman, RDK, Adi, and Wiseguy again, along with my smash bros from a long time ago like Smooth Criminal, ChronoBound, Diddy Kong, Thrillhouse, Oasis, Psycho, samusrules, and Omega (if he returns).

G'dizzle needs his Melee elusiveness and play style back, but with a new, kicking powerful moveset that really displays him as a super baddy. Hopefully we get at least some dark magic-based moves and possibly a move or two that involves one or two of his awesome swords.

lol @ Johnknight

I see what you did there :laugh:

@DarkFox- I'd love to have Johto starters too (dat Typhlosion), but to be real, the idea of a second trainer is pretty redundant considering the fact that he probably wouldn't bring anything to the table that Red hasn't already brought besides different Pokemon

You really wanna see what's up=???

Look the right here at the "Highest-Posting Members" and laugh at who the #1 poster is. :rotfl: Hint: It's not Teran or Mic, but you know this person place! :psycho:

Also, I have gone to smash tournaments with choknater, who has the 7th most posts, and that dude always has the biggest smile... except when he's playing. When he's playing, his face is freaking intense even though he's still super chill.

Lastly, lol at Dr. PP being #10 in the most posts.

I'm a bit under 13,800 posts off making that top 12 list. I gotta go full Omega status with my posts to catch up!!! :chuckle:

Omega was on some type of drug with his postings. Dude never slept. I swear he must have thought this was Nsider or something and got ranks for posting as much as he did. Either that or he was just really bored that summer. Not that I'll chide him too much since I wasn't that much better for those several months. Don't throw stones in glass houses.

I hate California. Come at me <3
Oh, greed, the love of money, which finds its root in pride and is magnified by government intervention :3
I feel like. . . I feel like I've not been on here enough, strangely, even though I am trying to move away from my idolatry in computers. I guess I spent most of my time that could have been used in Smashboards elsewhere, but I remember all those old names, pretty much, welcome back.

Posts counts are overrated anyway. It's only a number and nothing more, so treating it as something more then that is foolish.
