Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Khoru]

Also yeah, Quote is definitely more likely then Shovel Knight.

I feel these are the indies with the best chances,

Quote (No friggin duh')
Commander Video
Shantae

In that order.

man
i love quote but he's not more likely than sk
even taking into account that sk isn't in japan, which is a pretty ****ing big issue in the context of smash (and also why mike jones supporters are silly), cave story came out 12 years ago
it ain't getting a sequel
cvid's fine and i could see him being an indie "frontrunner" (whatever little that means)
and shantae is an indie nobody
literally
i've been doing research on indie games for months and the only mention i've seen of the shantae games is with relation to smash bros or among similarly polarized nintendo circles (e.g. the subreddit)
she wouldn't get in just over having "history," i.e. a 2002 game on the game boy color

 

[Shroob]

Oh, did anyone see what the CSS looked like with Corrin and Bayo?

I want to know for my sig if it needs to be changed.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Actually you know who does,

He's been killed several times and yet he always comes back from Princess Peach inexplicably, even when he's dead.

Doesn't take skin to bone someone

I missed it on the Niconico stream. I don't think it was seen though, there's no footage on YT of it.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

So, I've been getting all these videos in my subscription about these "Fine Bros"

They sounded pretty douchy.

In their core their not bad people. Their nice guys with good intentions. However trademarking a word like react can lead to some controversy

That's why I put her at the end, I think she's the least likely to be included.

I believe Quote has the highest chances due to the fact that he's a historic figure in the indie community.

He's a very iconic figure and has appeared in several games too.

(Then again this is coming from the guy with the Quote avi so bias is to be expected. )

However the lack of a sequel is something noteworthy.

I personally don't think we'll get any indie character, I don't think that they've made much of an impact compared to even Bayonetta, except for maybe Quote and Shovel Knight.

Oh, I thought they owned a lot of nice guys

 

[NintenZ]

Also I just want to clarify something, I'd be just fine with Shovel Knight, as I've gotten time to play his game, and it's pretty good.

Doesn't mean I think he's too likely, but I'd be just fine with him being in Smash Bros.

Just about to ask the same thing

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Does anyone know if TPHD is mirrored like the wii version?

 

[Kenith]

Does anyone know if TPHD is mirrored like the wii version?

No, it's the same as the Gamecube version.
As it should be.

Although Hero Mode might be flipped like Master Quest in OOT3D?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Being not mirrored actually makes me a little more interested in the game.

It'll almost be like playing a different game.

I never played the gamecube version

The GameCube version is the true version and is a lot better because it doesn't have tacked-on motion controls.
The only the people generally prefer about the Wii version is the motion aiming with the Bow.

 

[Deleted member]

I sometimes forget that TP was even on Gamecube.

 

[Shroob]

Welcome to February First, gentlemen. We're only a few days away from the final release of DLC.

We don't have much time like this left, let's make the most of it.

 

[Kenith]

I sometimes forget that TP was even on Gamecube.

Conversely, the GameCube is the only version I've conpleted / own.
I got the game alongside the fancy silver GameCube in fact.

 

[Burruni]

Bow aiming and having an extra item on your quick access.
I think the Gale Boomerang super jump was Wii Exclusive as well.

I just realized something. It's pancake day tomorrow. Time to whine at my mum to make pancakes then

yeah i feel like he would've been weird in ssb4 but i'd be fine seeing him down the road if ycg continues their thing
y'know once we get super shovel knight or whatever else

 

[Shroob]

Random question, but is anyone here a Touhou fan? Because I haven't looked at the series in years, and now I have soo many questions.

[Deleted member]

A little announcement to say I'm gonna start it on my Twitter tomorrow :

Spoiler

My tweets will be drafted in French, and I'll translate them in English here.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Let's go !

Day 1 : Favorite game

Not difficult.

 

[Shroob]

yessss

When the **** did Koishi become 3rd most popular.... and why.

 

[Khoru]

When the **** did Koishi become 3rd most popular.... and why.

that's... a really good question, actually
it might have to do with her importance in hopeless masquerade
i think there was also some wildly ooc fan comic or something but idk

the character popularity polls are totally inexplicable for the most part
i mean momiji's always been really high solely because she's a dog. that's it.

Oh hi French people

idk French was your first language, it is for me too, but it's Quebec French, it;s the same language as the regular France one, but it's.....slightly different in expressions and such.

btw, was reading your image......I can;t help but hope SS makes an appearance lol

oh it was a fighting game a few years ago
koishi had plot relevance in some of the routes
she's... a really weird fighter

They made another fighting game? Last game I remember had Cirno and a few others added in.

yeah, it's aerial-based
unlike any other fighting games i know of
none of the characters are shared between it and the previous three
there was another one with the same style, urban legend in limbo, that came out last year

They did a reboot of the fighting game?

.....I don't think I like the sound of that. The last one had all the keystone characters except for a few iirc.

So basically they pulled a Street Fighter 5.

yeah, kinda
a number of the characters that were in iamp/swr/soku aren't as important anymore though, and some in the newer ones are gaining traction (namely kasen, byakuren, and miko)
alice's last major appearance was in soku actually. i don't think she's shown up in any of the manga since outside of cameos, but i may be misremembering
yukari, sakuya, and sanae are still pretty major though so their absence hurts

That's a real creative name if I've ever seen one.

she's actually not a miko

sanae's my waifu so i'm fairly content with the state of affairs :D

there's a part in one of the manga where she thinks that poisoned reimu and marisa
