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

[Champ Gold]

Seems like three slots could fit if you reorganized, if you could add 3 more characters, who would it be?

"Realistic": Wolf, K. Rool and Inklings
Ultimate Bias: Dixie Kong, Sami and Blaziken

 

[Frostwraith]

Trust me, it's not just Lucas.

Spoiler: *Actual spoilers, especially for Fire Emblem*

Rosalina - Apparently dead as a young and upset Rosalina proclaims.
Samus - Killed by Ridley
Link - In OoT, his mother died getting to the Great Deku Tree.
Marth - Killed by a Dragon under Medeus.
Ike - Was killed by his father who had become berserk.
Lucina - Killed by Grima(he even emphasizes it, "Father and Mother are Dead!") if her mother is not Robin.
Corrin - Dies protecting him from an assassin.
Cloud - Was killed during Sephiroth's rampage.
Shulk - Died in the place where the Monado was found.

Trust me, if you look into some of the character's backgrounds, the quote is actually quite cruel to more than just Lucas.

Yeah, I know.

There's a lot of cases where the taunt is cruel.

But Bayonetta... just doesn't give a ****. XD

 

[Chrono.]

On the 3 extra characters: Elma, Inklings and Ashley.

Super bias edition: Elma, King Boo and Lloyd.

 

[Curious Villager]

Well they didn't call Bayonetta wicked in the trailer for nothing....

 

[Burruni]

Also.
Stage wishlist.
: Bowser's Castle.
: Queen Sectonia's Castle.
: Gangplank Galleon
: Shake King's Throne or S.S. Teacup
: New Los Angeles
: Space Colony Ark

 

[Substitution]

I mean...
By proxy...

Spoiler

: Killed by the Lumen Sage.
: Doesn't know who his mother is.
: Has had her parents killed in at least 2 incarnations.
: WHAT IS A PARENT

To be fair, Toon Link does have a grandma in WW. So there is the possibility.

Kinda sad @vaanrose left the thread after Corrinetta were revealed, makes me wish he had given his thoughts on the characters since his "I'm out lol" was pretty vague.

On the other hand, he was likely the most burned out by speculation of all of us.

Heck, good luck trying to find someone who isn't burned out. Even before the whole DLC thing I think people were burned, and then when DLC happened it just became a mess.

 

[Champ Gold]

Yeah, I know.

There's a lot of cases where the taunt is cruel.

But Bayonetta... just doesn't give a ****. XD

Well there's better ones like this:

: "Show me Your Moves"
: "Let him have it, Mac"

:"You're Ready For This"
:"Get Some"

Or my Favorite;

:"COME"
:"okay"

Wait a minute

 

[Coricus]

So many...
Phendrana
Clock Town
Tetris
Noctilum
Super Mario Strikers
Sky Pillar

Just to name a few...

Oh boy, Noctilum.

Man, I loved that place. Best continent in XCX. Only problem is I don't like meandering, non-dynamic traveling stages and there's too many good spots on that continent. Maybe that problem could be solved by somehow finding a way to use scaled up Skells as platforms.

Spoiler

Or have us ride the freaking Telethia.

Or both. Both is OK.

 

[Burruni]

The best taunt interaction is still...
: COME AHN!
: LET'S DO THIS!

 

[A Distant Demon]

So. . .I think I've come to realize the reason why speculation is frowned upon right now is because we all instinctually get super rabid about it. That shouldn't stop us from wishlisting though, right? I mean, off season is the perfect time to air our hopes and dreams, as Nintendo is going to have a much easier time taking notes from the fandom before they start developing a game than during. Maybe we don't need to wishlist characters so much because of the Ballot, but this fandom has never really done stages before and there seems to be a little more of an interest lately.

So what do you say? Anyone else want to try thinking up dream stage selections?

We've got the Big 3 as practically standard at this point (Bowser's Castle, Gangplank Galleon, Phendrana Drifts), but I think we should all brainstorm and figure out if there's anything else out there that most of us would find awesome enough to come to a consensus about. Stage wishlists are pretty neglected, so it's kind of a new frontier, right?

*points to avi*
Phendrana Drifts easily.
Elysium (Metroid Prime 3)
Makna Forest
Anchiem (Bravely Default)
Reset Bomb Forest (please)
Noctilum

: New Los Angeles

The less NLA music I hear the better lol

Listen.
It's either that or the Final Boss location if we're gonna get a "new archetype" for the XenoX stage.
And I didn't want to say the latter.

If I can't get Makna I can at least get the other cool forest

 

[Depressed Gengar]

Regarding the whole stagelist thing, aside from the three Coricus mentioned, the only two stages I really want are Temporal Tower and Another Dimension. Although I really would like a Dreamcast-era Sonic stage and a Wario Land stage too.

 

[Opossum]

Seems like three slots could fit if you reorganized, if you could add 3 more characters, who would it be?

If I myself could add three more? Henry Fleming, Chrom, and Inkling. I'd leave off the Ice Climbers since they literally can't work on the 3DS, sadly.

If I take off characters who already have a role in the game? Henry Fleming, Inkling, and King K. Rool.

 

[Burruni]

>Noctilum
>Sylvalum
>Noctilum

The stronghold in Caulduros could work.
But none of the regions by themselves are nearly as.. key for the story.
Just my opinion.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

B-but

Sylvalum tho. I mean really, that continent's music (ESPECIALLY its night theme) you just can't say no to. Although Noctilum would be a better stage aesthetically. We'd probably get Primordia though for what it's worth.

As for dream stages...
- Phendrana Drifts
- Noctilum (at least include the Sylvalum music tho) but I'll take Primordia too
- return of Great Bay
- return of Fountain of Dreams
- return of Shadow Moses Island (dependent on if Snake comes back, tho)

City Escape

Band Land
Aurum Hive

 

[Ivander]

So what do you say? Anyone else want to try thinking up dream stage selections?

: Bowser's Castle.
: Gangplank Galleon or The Flying Krook.
: Mt. Silver or any place that is an area and not a stadium. That's why I like the 3DS Pokemon stages alot more than the Wii U stages.
: Dread Island or Dragon's Gate.
: Lunar Fortress from Chapter 13.
: Death Mountain.
: Chemical Plant Zone or Space Colony Ark.
: Osaku Castle(that castle in Chapter 2)
: Oblivia or Sylvalum
: Anywhere that isn't a Lava stage, like Elysium.
: Syrup Castle, S.S.Teacup or basically any area in a Wario Land game
Okay, non-represented areas:
-Any one of the castles from "The Mysterious Murasame Castle."
-A Holosseam from Custom Robo.
-A building overlooking a war zone from Advance Wars, where the field changes depending on which CO/side has captured the building.
-An area from Golden Sun, like the Venus or Mercury Lighthouse.
-Nintendoland.

 

[Wolfie557]

The same basic way you'd do so in Bayonetta itself.
You have to press down just before you use the move.
And the orange Haduken is for doing a full half circle instead of a quarter circle.

Thanks, I'll try again next time.
I try to do down before pressing the move but then it either goes witch time or normal air side b.

If we get an area Pokémon stage, we need a real time day-night cycle on it. Smashville and Umbra Clock Tower use the internal clock for stuff, so a Pokémon stage that does the same shouldn't be out of the question.

 

[Opossum]

Dream stages? Dream stages.

- Bowser Castle
- Sunset Shores
- Death Mountain
- Skytown, Elysia
- Halcandra
- Distortion World
- Cave of Origin
- The Final Trial
- Mount Prism
- Doc's Training Gym
- Gyromite, dammit!

- Inkopolis
- The Lady Liberty
- Glugglug Lagoon OR Hotcha Springs
- Jinbe's Garden

 

[Aetheri]

Noctilum is by far my favourite region (its just so darn pretty :])

I could picture it working similar to 3D Land...and we could fight on various giant branches, vines, fungi, leaves as we go through different areas such as the waterfalls, qi long glade, the whale's nostril (lol), and even a glimpse at dead man's gulch and the divine roost (which would of course cameo the endbringer itself)...

Primordia seems the most likely choice especially since people have been calling it the gaur plains of XCX, I would not be upset about Primordia (or any region that's not NLA tbh)...but I'd vastly prefer noctilum...

All with a nice medley featuring ALL of the overworld themes because they are all pretty amazing!!!

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Characters

• Maxwell
• Bandana Waddle Dee

I'm pretty sure there were more, just can't remember them.

The timing for it is legitimately short in the window and thus leads to it being a bit of an awkward input.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I want a Norion stage, if you break the floor by hitting it or standing on it too long, it suddenly shifts to the area you fight Meta Ridley in MP3:C and you stay airborne for a good what? 30 seconds?

Question: What's everyone favourite move to kill enemies with Corrin and Bayonetta? For me, it has to be Dragon Fang Shot's bite and Heel Stomp despite not having played Bayonetta yet. Heel Stomp so gud...

 

[Chrono.]

My friend found an old article on LoZ Wii U.

"Aonuma is confident it will release in 2015"

lol... LOL

Spoiler

For the record, I don't mind that it got delayed but stuff like this is funny to look back at

 

[Pazzo.]

Inkling, Professor Layton, Dillon.

Gunner, Swordsman, Brawler.

Bayo's dair for sure...probably the best dive in the game right now...

's most satisfying kills are one of three things.
Counter.
Off stage lance.
Or Down Throw to full hop Up B.

 

[Deleted member]

The way I do it is a hadoken motion. Rather than pressing down and then side special.

So

Much faster and works everytime.

Considering what I've heard about Another Dimension, I'm gonna have to look up a video in a bit, LOL.

I think I know what Lilliput Steps is, but I could easily be wrong as is seems like something not many people would remember. It's one of the My Sanctuaries, right?

*EDIT* Oh, Megaton Punch is that Kirby minigame. It clicked right after I posted this. Funny how it always seems to turn out like that.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

If I remember correctly, you can't get pinned if you put up your shield

 

[Z25]

You should say "It was fun while it lasted."

My thoughts exactly! Mine is gone but it was certainly fun! I'll try my best in the tournament still though!

http://universal.wdwinfo.com/news/c...-475-acres-next-to-universal-studios-florida/

Universal Orlando just bought 475 acres of land!

Could this be for Nintendo's theme park?

Probably they brought even more then this. They have plans for a new water park over wet and wild, and have been buying land around the area. We won't see anything yet though.

All this new black space on the roster... I have like a strong and uncontrollable urge to fill it.

Clearly it means more DLC is on the way!
the organization is really bothering me though.

Holy **** Corrin's counter is ****ing crazy. I killed a Peach by countering a ****ing Turnip

I love corrin's counter so much! That was my favorite part of playing him yesterday. HE's pretty good and fun. I like what they did with him.

That akward moment when you use 's Up Taunt on and realize you're the scum of the earth.

Lol, when I saw this as playing as her yesterday, I laughed so much.

Speaking of which bayo's moveset is really fun! The stage is amazing as well. I'll definitely try to make her a higher up main.

And 3 characters?

Wolf, Bandanna Dee, Inkling.

Also I'll take crankey kong over dixie kong any day! No offense dixie fans, I just like Crankey's potential and personality more.

 

[Burruni]

If I remember correctly, you can't get pinned if you put up your shield

Yeah but short hop side B is a glorious mix up.
OBVIOUSLY this combo is a bit of a one-hit-wonder for an actual tournament.
For FG when people don't know what to expect?
MWAHAHAHAHA
