I didn't watch a full playthrough of Uprising until May of last year, but it was different than what I as expecting.
During the second part of the game after Medusa, the plot just goes...all over the place. It seems to be separated into several "sagas".

Hades doesn't really play a major role other than the Wish Seed chapter at the beginning and the chapters near the end of the game. In between, he just stays in the background, making comments.

There's even a "saga" where a swarm of aliens arrive out of nowhere and all the characters join together to defeat it. (not joking)

One, spoielr alerts for multiple year old game!


Two, yup, Uprising is in very clear sagas. Personally I think it's cool and keeps things fresh instead of constantly chasing down the same baddie.

Is this something we should ask @PushDustIn about?
I guess but I tend not to do that since it seems SourceGaming has it's own schedule and plans to adhere to anyway as it is. And Push has already elaborated on the difficulties of running the site right now and I don't want to impose, personally.

Someone will do it someday I'm sure, in any case.

Man what is with Nintendo asking Namco, Sega and Capcom to make arcade games?

It's always those 3
They were huge in the arcade scene after all.

SEGA with AM2, Capcom and Namco explain themselves.
So... do you guys remember Emily Rodgers? The one that leaked the supposedly new Paper Mario game? Well, she's now apparently hinting at Mother 3's localization in the West.

Eh, I'll wait on the rumor until there's a set in stone confirmation.
'Till then it's just another text leak.

TODAY'S THE DAY BOYS. FINAL DLC UPDATE AND CUSTOM MUSIC even though that feature is useless to us as it can't be used on the latest firmware HYPE.
Oh, that's a shame. Well it will be interesting to see what Soneek has to show us soon anyway. He seems to have done quite a lot if his Youtube page is anything to go by.

It's like one of those Y7 cartoons where there's an overarching plot more or less but other than that the plot does what it wants.

Some people like it, other people want something deeper. I enjoyed it, but someone looking for a coherent experience is better off picking up a Final Fantasy or Fire Emblem game. KI:U is more about just enjoying whatever the world throws at you and taking it in stride.

Why are people acting like Paper Mario Wii U is not plausible?

I'm not sure about the legitimacy of the rumour, but Paper Mario Wii U is a perfectly plausible thing conceptually. The series is normally a home console series, with Mario & Luigi being the handheld one. Sticker Star was the real oddball in terms of previous patterns.

It also makes sense timeline wise. Intelligent Systems are finished with FE Fates and have been for a while now other than the small bits of DLC, so they can probably switch focus to whatever other projects they had. Paper Mario Wii U is a likely candidate, especially with Paper Jam advertising Paper Mario.

I also think Mother 3 is inevitable. They already gave us a wink.

I hope mother 3 finally coming is true.

If it it's true will that make Lucas safe for the next Smash Bros?

Localized Mother 3, eh?

You know, it's this type of rumor that gets your house TP'd.
No it's that type of rumor that turns you into a joke and everyone distrust you no matter what you said.

Say what you want about the ****storm called Gemastu but Sal lost any credibility after Robin got reveal.
Whether he was right or wrong, no one takes him seriously anymore and we don't hear about him anymore.


That thing can kill anyone's career. Whether it's Smash, Mother 3, Metroid Dread, new console and Zelda Wii U

I don't think anyone is arguing against it. It's just people aren't going to trust some text leak until things are proven otherwise.

We're acting like the Mother 3 leak isn't plausible. . .
Because getting your hopes up for Mother 3 is asking for a sadness
Edited my post to mention that too.

They've given us a wink. They've done the other two. Lucas has been in Smash twice now, the second time actually as standalone content that people have to actively purchase.

It's not a matter of if. It's a matter of when. And I think it will happen soon enough.

I have some trust concerns with Emily Rogers.

Remember that whole "we have a big Smash reveal on October that me and only a select others know but we ain't tellin' you nuttin'!" last year?

True. That mess was just someone knows something but nobody know


But if I wanted to play Devil's Advocate, there was some news that people knew who the Smash character was a maybe two weeks or a month before the Direct where Cloud was revealed.

But that's just my 2 cents

New Paper Mario is rumored to be in progress: "WOW I'M HYPED!"

Mother 3 localization rumored by the SAME SOURCE: "LOL FAKE NOT HAPPENING."

I... I just can't.

I don't know man, I don't think 'bound to eventually happen' applies to something being begged about for a goddamn decade. I don't see it happening. A remake, MAYBE. But a translation of the original GBA game? Pfft, Ridley, Wolf and Goku have better chances at being Sm4sh DLC

elsewhere maybe, but now a days, most people still buy that Sal had legit info but it was outdated. Which honestly makes sense and you can't really debate. So if he did come here with info again, people would at least listen but still question if it's outdated or not.

Smash 5 speculation:
"X character is outdated because reasons"
"No dummy Y character is outdated!"

Favorite Uprising Character?
Considering I've gone mostly spoiler-free for Uprising, that lowers to pool down
Pit, Pale Tuna, Pittoo, Viridi, Hades, Mesuda, (<Smash) that 3-headed Dog thing, (<KI:U Trailer) H-is-for-HAMAZING (<Picture I saw) and Lady Phosphy (<Smash)
Lady Phosphy is definitely my favorite character of that list, hands-down
She's adorable
She has a cute voice
The lightning scarf is awesome
She's awesome~
I'd love to look more into her but I don't wanna run into spoilers
But I'll never be able to play Uprising properly unless I get a Normal 3DS + Circle Pad Pro because I'm a klutz with my right hand
So I'll just stare at her Smash Trophy all like
"SHE'S PREEETTYYYYY~"
Well she does have by far the best fight scene in the game with another God happening.... and it's quite long.
Please get it. You can change the camera to be controlled by the buttons, if somehow that helps. Either way... even if your trash the game will be WELL worth it. Not like you would be able to complete even most of them 300+ challenges unless you are super-human anyway..

So buy mostly for the experience / plot. :p
I know nothing about Kid Icarus or Phosphora.

Isn't she like... a weather controller? Because if so that's cool. Also she's a waifu, so extra cool.
Just thunder/electricity. She charges herself up while she's in the shower.

They're both tall.

petty I know but Undertale has a ship for the same reason . . .
I'm assuming it's more so either "LULZ I IS RANDOMZ XDXDXD" or the mentality that everyone should be romantically together.

A mother 3 remake?in 2016?I find that less likely than anything you listed.I mean it takes less resources and less time to just translate the game than remake from the ground up
