So, you know that April Fools joke the SSF2 team pulled off?
Well, Sandbag will actually be in the game as an unlockable character.

http://mcleodgaming.com/news
What's up with the Smash fangames and their wierd choices of characters? (Sandbag, Anime characters, Weegee, Vaporeon, etc)

I don't want to say that im dissapointed with this reveal (in fact im happy that he is actually a character and not a april fools joke, seeing how much effort it was put in his trailer) but im not super thrilled either.

Still a better joke character than Pichu though.

On a side note, are expansion characters still a thing? because if yes, then i might start having to create my own expansion characters.

I suppose if you are making a fan game (or mod) some might decide to include a character they know will probably never make it in an official Smash game anytime soon but still wish to have them in anyway. Plus developing a game and whatnot can take quite a lot of time and energy from you so some may also wish to also have a bit of fun with it too while their at it.

Bow.
Bow is how you do those stages.
Yeah, that's how I managed to complete it eventually...Zelda's light arrows were handy as well since they clear out all enemies right in front of you...

It's no fun though if you don't run in head first into the fray...usually it's fine if you just keep running and avoid any ranged attacks...but there's always one bublin that gets a lucky hit in...

I'm so happy that Sandbag in SSF2 is the real deal.

So, is Sandbag immune to blast lines like its Melee incarnation? :upsidedown:

If I had to guess, trying to capture the "curve-ball character you didn't know you wanted" thing that Sakurai seems to have.

Lol, Sandbag is an actual character now. I'll definitely try him out.

That powerful jab tho.


Ah, the odd one out among the Ace Attorney boxarts. :p

Have fun!

:231:
Why is that though? Is it because of low quality background judge or Maya's face?

So what's the point then?

Finished Episode 1, it was a nice tutorial
Love the soundtrack
And this game is certainly for me, I love calling out people for their lies and bull**** and seeing them lose their ****
Is that pic taken on top of an ottoman?
Because If so, I think I have the exact same kind.
**** I've been found out

Man, I really want to use a fight pad controller (NOT fight stick) on my Xbox One for Killer Instinct.

The problem is my Xbox 360 fight pad isn't compatible with Xbox One and I'm not getting the only Xbox One fight pad that exists in the market (Mortal Kombat X) as that has been met with lots of unfavorable reviews.

Repeatedly making the mistake of looking through YouTube comments on various videos, because subconscious masochism. Looked through the comments of a video showing the showroom floor reaction to WFT and. . .

next to the villager this was the most disappointing character announcement iv ever heard out of a fighting game

Something tells me you don't really understand Smash Bros that well.
First Guy said:
i do bring out nintendos biggest franchises then have them fight sumo style but wii fit games are not big niintendo things. the least they could do is add a variety of villains and darker nintendo characters to make the game feel serious.
Dat "muh villains" bit at the end. :4darkpit:

And Wii Fit games are not big Nintendo things? They may not be in the typical series fold, but they were a pretty huge deal and they're owned by Nintendo, so. . .

Because it means little to nothing in the end of whether this happens or not.

:094:
The idea that the possibility of it happening is now stronger.

Kingdom Hearts literally started because a Square rep met a Disney rep in an elevator, so it isn't far-fetched to hope Nintendo vs Capcom could potentially work from this.

With Nintendo deciding to branch out with other companies and trying out new ideas with their franchises, (Hyrule Warriors and Pokken Tournament) seeing something like Nintendo vs Capcom would be great to see. With a great selection of characters from both companies, I can see something like this working out. It would be a nice counterpart to Super Smash Bros with having a casual and hardcore fighting game franchise. If this does indeed happen though, seeing Nintendo having most of the major fighting games (Melee and Smash 4, Pokken Tournament, and now this) from one company would be a sight to behold. I guess Nintendo vs Capcom would be co-owned by the two companies however.

Thinking back, remember when people thought one of the reasons Ryu was included in Smash 4 was because of Nintendo vs Capcom (making him as a promotional character)? Those were some good times.

Holy ****, the Panama Papers leak is probably the biggest thing since Snowden's.

Scratch that, it's definitely bigger than Snowden's, and WikiLeaks' as well. Holy ****, man.


Seriously, if you're not familiar with this, look it up. Corruption everywhere.

Well Dark Pit does fit a "darker" character. Even if I would never call Dark Pit a villain

looking through YouTube comments


Please. For your own health, don't head into such places. :scared:

Why didn't nobody tag me for this



What leaked out?
Everything. This is seriously a huge deal. Apparently they're gonna fully disclose the names later today, but already there are ties to Putin, Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson, and FIFA that have been fully disclosed.

*looks up*

Who needs to hike taxes on the rich? If we can just make them pay their taxes in the first place you've solved half the problem.

And maaan, look at that lineup. Unpostables, terrorist organizations, North Korea, Jackie Chan. . .

Yeah, I wouldn't count him as a villain either. Heck, the only characters so far I WOULD count for that is Bowser and Ganondork. None of the others quite fully qualify for one reason or another. Just making an edge joke because that's what I figure passes for humor around here.

And yeah, I know it's bad. Gotta convince myself to stop before I go even madder than I already am. :skull:

Nintendo vs Capcom? We already have that! :4mario: :4link: :4megaman: :4ryu:
:troll:

But seriously, Capcom has stated numerous times over the years on the idea (the earliest I can recall is from a 2010 Tatsunoko vs. Capcom interview) but action speaks louder than words IMO.

I doubt Nintendo vs Capcom happens unless Nintendo approaches Capcom about it and offers to provide the entirety of the funding.

That said I think it makes more sense to fund NvC than BG&E2 or Bayo2.

Well Zoroarking was right. Eliwood is in fact a beast. I mean that is a normal lord thing but these have been some crazy level ups. . . So far Hector has pretty much just been a wall. He misses more than he hits but he takes damage so his allies don't have to. And that damage is usually 0.

If NvC was a thing I would cry tears of joy.

I'd hope that Bayonetta would be on the Nintendo side despite not really being a Nintendo character.

Eliwood is great but you've got to be using Hector wrong if he keeps missing
He is probably the most accurate axe users I ever used
He's fast, bulky and strong, his only weakness is his Res but he'll kill mages in the player phase before they can do anything anyways
Also, axecopter crits
