Dante's powers get a lot more crazy than Bayonetta's get. It's definitely in Dante's favor.

IIRC Hideki Kamiya said that, canonically, Bayonetta would win against Dante in a one-on-one duel.

Don't have a source with me right now, but you can try looking for that in his Twitter.

Thing is...

We really don't know what he's basing it off of.

Then again, I would honestly say Bayo wins as well, but I think it'd be awfully close.

Bayo hits harder and is faster but Dante is more durable and arguably more versatile.

This was discussed a page or two ago and it turns out Kamiya was joking.

He basically just said "a man can never beat a woman in a fight".

http://platinumgames.com/2009/07/07/pgtv-episode-6-hideki-answers-your-questions/

So it's a clear joke response.

It's also worth nothing that DMC has surpassed Kamiya. He didn't work on every game so Dante's abilities have surpassed his "Word of God".

I'm surprised no one has talked about the 2 Killer Instinct characters that got leaked several days ago.

It seems that we now have 3 Microsoft guest characters in the game. What other Microsoft characters would you like to see make it into the game?

Yo.
I'm going to be
The ONE and only person who'd put this out there.
But I want a giant mech piloted by that damn paper clip.
....What?
He's still a Microsoft character. Just not from gaming.

Because they got "served" by some Internet series?
Like I wouldn't call it a sick burn by any means. It just means people were wrong, that's about it.

Chapter 22 Cleared for Revelations.

I'm... getting a fair amount burnt.

Maybe I've just done too much and the "twists" are just obvious before they happen for me now but this has been a war against gimmicks more than anything.

I know nothing about KI, but Shaggy and Scooby seem like pretty good choices if they can take the joker and penguin.

So Scooby and shaggy for Killer instinct!

IIRC Hideki Kamiya said that, canonically, Bayonetta would win against Dante in a one-on-one duel.

Don't have a source with me right now, but you can try looking for that in his Twitter.

Kamiya LITERALLY said the phrase "No man on earth could beat a woman in a fight" and said Bayo would win because she's a woman. Basically jesting, as it all depends on the power/speed/skill, not the gender.

I'm going Team Dante because I like him a little more as a character and his regen and damage intake are way better than Bayo's defense feats.

EDIT: Trying to find the interview, I may have been misfed info so I want to make sure

FOUND IT.

Hideki Kamiya Answers Your Questions Ep. 1

He didn't want to give a straight answer so he saved face with a joking response by virtue that Bayo is a lady.

Today's reminder that Word of God is Bull**** unless backed up by feats.

It turns out it wasn't serious.

It could be anyone's fight.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

The finalists for the Pokken tournament.

EDIT: Nintendo is having these guys teach the finalists as their trainers. Interesting...

Funny they mostly play smash bros.

This reminds me( although un related to this chapter)

I got the C rank support for Benny and corrin.

It's one of my favorites.

Spoiler: minor dialogue spoiler

Corrin thinks he's seems angry monster that murders thousands.

Corrin: "Benny is it true that you took down an army of 10,00 by yourself?"

Benny: "No, who told you this?"

Corrin: " Oh no I made him angry! Did you really throw a man into the sky and he never came down?"

Benny: Yes, that is true

Corrin: " Really!?

Benny: No, why did you think this? Who's telling you these things?

Corrin: " No please don't hurt me!

Lmao.

I also beat Chapter 24 of Conquest last night.

It was annoying....

Spoiler: Chapter Spoiler

I needed to take out everyone in the beginning.

Lured 4 Pegasus knights, and 5 mages within the first few turns. Guarded felicia, and azura, while everyone took out them. Then I sent camilla(paired with keaton) to kill the stupid hexer.

kept everyone else by the second bridge that led to the dragon vein.

Using these for the next few turns very strategically, just protected felica and azura as the Pegasus knights were coming to kill them when they arrived every few turns. I was just able to guard and protect them. Then had benny/effie, keaton/camilla,velurva(who I later paired azura with to protect azura), and shura/niles.

After barely getting through that, I moved forward a bit and healed up everyone. The next turn I advanced and took out Hinoka and the one enemy with the Tiger axe. I then finished off Hinoka's guard, and the ox user the next turn and seized the place.

The stage was toughed but my strategy worked well. Good stage to. The story afterwards was sweet. It was nice to see Hinoka truly understand why Corrin couldn't stay on their side, and how he knew they would all be dead if he couldn't get to them first. Looking forward to doing the next chapter with Ryoma.

Killer Instinct? I don't have a way of playing KI3 but when I was young I'd always love to play KI Gold (KI2 64) when I went over to my cousin's house and got me hooked on it. So I don't mind discussing Killer Instinct here.

I'm right now playing the first 2 Killer Instincts on MAME.

 

[ChikoLad]

The Keyblade can now be used in Disney Infinity 3.0 for anyone insane enough to buy all of the figures for it.

It's actually more than just a basic melee weapon. When wielding it, Mickey can use Fire, Blizzard, Stun Impact (the guy in the video mistakes it for Thunder), Ars Arcanum, and Ragnarok.

Pretty cool homage. Hopefully this paves the way for Kingdom Hearts in 4.0.

Y'know, Xenoblade Chronicles X is a game that can be frustrating at times. The pacing is rather jarring, Affinity Missions could be handled a wee bit better, the game doesn't explain itself well, but sights like these make it all worth it for me. Spoilered because final area

I hopeful for a patch to fix issues and some balance help. And considering all the salt, will be hit hard if it happens

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I kind of forgot Vespiquen was one of my favorite pokemon because I don't use it very often

I don't use it very often because female combee are hard to find

And finding a female combee with the right personality is nearly impossible.

I actually DID find one this time, only to find out in gen 6 a special based combee is what most people use now. Oh well...

It's currently the only pokemon I EV trained

We'd sooner get more DLC than a balance patch that makes Shulk, Zelda and Charizard worth playing tbh

 

[wedl!!]

inb4 the game doesn't actually get patched and people just have to learn how to adjust to the new characters instead of crying on reddit or twitter or wherever else

This is really sad to hear. He's done so much for the Layton series, and with his passing, I only wonder who will take his stead with the puzzle creation when the series gets out of its hiatius. My prayers go out to him in this time of grief.

Ok....NOWW I'm gonna be playing Xenoblade 3D...At least after I finish TPHD (currently working on Ilia's memory so not too far from finishing it)...I've been a little anxious to play this game since X was so good...

Damn but Pokken's coming out in a few days and then there's Hyrule warriors, then the upcoming SNES games...talk about a busy gaming schedule...

Honestly, I think the original Xenoblade wins out for gameplay and story. Xeno X just has some better scenery and mobility.

The next wave of SNES games are coming out on my birthday!

Although the only title I really want is DKC2

I think I'll buy DKC on my birthday though

Ok this is pretty good:

This was my favorite boss fight in Xenoblade!
