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

[Ivander]

Lots a responses! Awesome!

Switching gears a bit:

1. Most wanted character for Pokken?
2. Most-wanted character for Dissidia Arcade?
3. As a random oddball pick to make an even three, Most-Wanted character for Disney Infinity (altogether or all three different sub-sections)?

1. Scizor -> Tyranitar -> Feraligator
2. Already got Ramza, so...: Faris -> Vivi -> Montblanc
3. I don't play it...

If they moved the majority of the pre-production team onto Smash NX in late 2014 and hired some new people.

2014-2017 is three years.

The only thing I gather here is that the fandom is utterly sick of Smash Brothers.

Still 3 years is a good time frame for a port imo. They should be able to get a lot done, and I think it would turn out fine.

Well it ain't like we could see any LESS of it!

Edit:

So...
Make a pre-production team.
That ran side by side the production of DLC? Starting pratically immediately from when Smash WiiU was completed?
That, personally, doesn't make much sense.

Not necessarily from when Wii U was done, but we know DLC had a limited team, so where did the team go? What was up with the Smash 6 listing?
My personal theory is that they divided the teams, and then recruited those 200 people for smash 6, which would be working on an NX port.

Again, just a theory,

A GAME THEORY!

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

You know what, screw it. I'll buy Corrin and Bayonetta.

Considering how everyone who doesn't play for more than 30 seconds says Corrin is fun as ****, this should be interesting

Well Nintendo knew the Wii U was in deep poopoo and the NX was going to need support by then.

Considering what was going to happen with Brawl, it's entirely possible we're just getting a vanilla port for the next console generation and that's it, but the time frame at least allows the possibility.

Why would they even be getting "a lot done" if it was just a port?

There's only a certain amount of work you can do before you may as well just slap a new name on it and call it a new thing, even if it shares the same physics and engine.

Why would they take the exact amount of time typically used for a full game to just make a port?

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

What made you change your mind?

I watched my friends play them on the 3DS.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Even after the first week of February is over, I'm still hyped. As if Weirdmageddon Part 3 can't hurry its way here.

When Gravity Falls ends, I'll have zero reason to watch any Disney channels other than Star Butterfly.

 

[ChikoLad]

I played some more Smash today. I've really been getting into Corrin. I think he's legit main potential for me. Like Cloud, he fills a similar niche to Mario for me.

But... But... Wander Over Yonder. Penn Zero. Lab Rats.

 

[Frostwraith]

In the end, even detractors can't resist the lure of having all the DLC characters.

Saw the english version of the skin ship thing.


Its better than nothing

They just removed the rub-rub. All they have is the character talk and blush, and no important gameplay elements were removed as this feature did help strengthening the support.

Still kinda weeby, to be honest. With the character blushing, staring at you and whatnot.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

But... But... Wander Over Yonder. Penn Zero. Lab Rats.

Oh don't worry, I've started Wander Over Yonder recently. Funny how a simple kids show has beings that bust planets and eat stars.

Now I've seen little of Penn Zero and it's kind of cool. Never watched Lab Rats though.

 

[N3ON]

I don't know, I feel like everyone's opinions change everyday here....

I'll still stick with 2017 till I see more of it though.

I think making a poll here might prove interesting, but to my knowledge this place leans more towards the 2017 release.

Meanwhile places like GAF and the majority of gaming journalists and analysts believe (by and large) it will be 2016. Probably because the latter has a more business and industry-oriented perspective while this place tends to have a more Nintendo fan-oriented perspective.

You're right, whoops. Still right about the release year tho.

Yep!

Both Brawl and Smash 4 were announced too early as far as I'm concerned.

You know what, screw it. I'll buy Corrin and Bayonetta.

And, as with all Smash fans who initially bemoan a character reveal, the other shoe drops.

I'm curious to know if anyone here has absolutely no plans to buy some or any of the DLC characters.

Even then, at least now people won't complain about not having the strawberry on their cake.

I guess if you were to copy any character, it'd be the one that's considered broken.

Well, well... Looks like Sakurai did find some "inspiration" in that game. Haha.

So much for being a rip-off? Guess imitation can be the sincerest form of flattery.

This said, some of those moves such as the After Burner Kick and Heel Slide, are actually from Bayonetta... Of course, this being played on a 2D plane, it does seem like the functions of those moves are inspired on that game.

On one hand, that's ****ty of you Smash.

On the other, Kat was my PSASBR main (the little I've played of it), so awesome! :3

lol

That's why it's so fun when you get to play as Corrin

Well of course people are still gonna complain, but it won't be as bad as it was before.

I knew Bayonetta's moves reminded me of someone. I also remember Kat being a pain in the ass in the game.

Speaking of Kat and Gravity Rush, I just got Gravity Rush Remastered for the PS4, haven't played it yet, but I've heard good things.

So.... Bayonetta is a Cat clone?

That's, pretty interesting to see.

The idea of a port that most people have had( at least from what I've seen), is that it would be
SUPER Super Smash Bros, and kind of like an ultimate street fighter type game.
Basically a small expanded version of smash 4, that combines both versions, adds some more characters, maybe more stages and modes as well. Thus the game would be a port but still require some work on it.

I watched my friends play them on the 3DS.

Alright, cool. It's definitely better to watch them in action.

Even after the first week of February is over, I'm still hyped. As if Weirdmageddon Part 3 can't hurry its way here.

When Gravity Falls ends, I'll have zero reason to watch any Disney channels other than Star Butterfly.

This, plus deadpool comes out then as well! Which I can't wait for!

But... But... Wander Over Yonder. Penn Zero. Lab Rats.

Wander over Yonder is pretty good. One of my favorite Creig Mcracken shows. Lab rats is nice to.

A poll could be interesting, but your analysis of how different sights view it are spot on. Even from a business standpoint, I don't understand why a 2016 release would be viewed as good. With Titles like Zelda U and Starfox, it be bad to overshadow them with a whole new console.

Man Sakurai is really making it his goal to completely and utterly crush any chance of a sequel for this doing well!

"That will teach them to steal my baby's name and concept!"

 

[Zynux]

So with E. Gadd in Mario Maker, I want King Boo. I don't care how weird it will be with him trying to avoid enemy Boos. In fact that's half the reason I want him.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

All Playstation All Stars needed was to have Crash, Spyro, and Cloud to get my attention.

Just kidding, I still have my old copy and play it once in a while. Parappa, Sir Daniel, Sackboy, and Kratos are my favorites.

There was a good six months were I played that game nonstop. I really hope we get a sequel, even if it is unlikely.

That's not the weird part though. The weird part would be seeing King Boo sliding along the ground (since I highly doubt that they will actually make it float).

Guys, check out this gamer motivation profile! https://apps.quanticfoundry.com/lab/10 It also reccomends you games you're likely to enjoy. It recommended me FE....which I already decided to try with Fates.
(some of) My results look like this:
"Action-Oriented, Spontaneous, Relaxed, Competitive, Deeply Immersed, and Creative"

Spoiler

I'm pleased cos I actually completely agree haha.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

You can buy almost every Tomb Raider game on steam for like 20 bucks...

Should I take the plunge?

Probably , but Corrin and Bayonetta's Boxing Ring Titles are Blood of Dragons and Umbra Witch, respectively
