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

[Cutie Gwen]

Wha. . .t.

If I'm reading this correctly, that's one heck of a 180 on the part of whoever this is, especially since neither assessment is correct.

Why on earth would Fire Emblem be made annually if it was about to die? And it's not, Awakening and Fates had a three year gap between them, but both of those games also pushed over a million units as far as I'm aware, which is a pretty impressive number of units for a non-Mario, non-Zelda, non-Pokemon, non-casual game. If one million units for a title is terrible now, Pikmin should be dead. Instead, Pikmin is currently getting a fourth game and always has a bunch of little plushes in the Nintendo merch sections of video game stores, toy sections, and bookstores all over the place.

Oh, and if Nintendo decided Fire Emblem is important enough that it should be one of their first two non-Mii IPs to get an app of all things, then it isn't likely to go aaaaanywhere.

He claimed FE was annual in an attempt to smacktalk it because COD is annual too. Then even non FE fans told him to shut the **** up about stuff he doesn't know anything about. He also claims all pokemon games are **** except Platinum, the only one he played. He borrowed X for a few months from a friend and he didn't even touch it. "All the new pokemon are ****"

Giiva's at it again.

Nope. Armor doesn't have all the same powers as normal Kirby. I actually haven't tried putting an amiibo on when in the armor admittedly.

Looked it up

There is no mirror mode

That's what I was hoping for

Wh. . .aaaaa. . .

I mean, that smack talk COD comparison comes up a lot on GameFAQ's Pokemon section, but except for last year you can almost kinda see why. Fire Emblem, though. . .how. Just HOW.

. . .Maybe all the games he plays either have fairly slow dev cycles and randomly skip generations at will (Metroid), only show up approximately once a generation or system, give or take a game (Pikmin, Smash, Animal Crossing), or released 1-3 titles and fell off the face of the earth (oh, a lot of things). That would explain the skewed perception. His mind is altering time in order to endure the wait for what he actually wants.


And badmouthing games simply because he hasn't personally played them, even going so far as to go full Green Eggs And Ham on an opportunity to try something new and outright refusing to? Yep, sound like the typical "anime" hater to me.

 

[A Distant Demon]

I will probably wind up watching Ratchet anyway. I really only watch movies through Redbox (Zootopia and Deadpool were exceptions) and even if most people don't like it it will probably be worth a dollar for nostalgia lone

I still have Captain AMerica and Avengers 2 to watch before Civil War

I can't tell if this is purposeful ignorance or **** taste

He's ACTUALLY that dumb. His best/worst moment?

Me and a friend were spreading Daredevil propaganda.


He told us to shut up about anime

[ChikoLad]

Give me an anime suggestion (that isn't One-Punch Man).

I feel like binge watching all of a sudden, dunno what to do with the rest of my night.

I was thinking Cowboy Bebop or Heaven's Lost Property myself.

Cowboy Bebop's a classic. If you haven't seen it I say watch that.

"I bet this is going to be a bunch of Nintendoomed predictions, isn't it"

*reads*

*a couple of Nintendoomed, a few dwelling on how Nintendo's strategy relates to smartphones, and a couple actually realizing why the heck Nintendo is causing a game drought and how that plays into their strategy in the long term exactly like I've been saying*

Well better than I expected, I guess.

Also Pachter has spoken. We're DEFINITELY getting the NX in March.

 

[ChikoLad]

Nintendo isn't doomed, but their E3 show and second half of 2016 most likely is.

 

[Z25]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Alright this made me laugh....
And PPG is terrible in this reboot I see...

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Probably a mixture of both.

 

[Coricus]

Nintendo isn't doomed, but their E3 show and second half of 2016 most likely is.

At this point I take the entirety of 2015, 2016, and to some greater or lesser degree the entire Wii U run as being one huge ritual sacrifice to fuel the power of the NX upon it's creation.

I can almost see all that time and effort on a sacrificial stone altar as Nintendo waves over salad dressing and chants incantations as a billowing cloud slowly transforms into the true form of the NX.

 

[ChikoLad]

Oh wait, there is a new episode of Assassination Classroom. I'll probably just watch at least that for tonight.

Also there was a new Gundam series that aired last year and apparently it's pretty fantastic.

And people say manservice anime mousepads don't exist.

Not to worry mates, these feature the chest as their main assets.

I'm glad I use a trackball mouse. I don't need no stinkin' mouse pad

.......Only 13 of those are not Legendary Pokemon. Only 2 of them are starter Pokemon, 2 of them are Eevees, 1 is the Mascot, 2 of them are Fossil Pokemon, 1 is the Fighting Game Pokemon, only 1 is a Pseudo-legendary, 1 is a meme, 1 is a Fairy Pikachu, 1 is the androgynous guardian and the last 1 is a nobody. Just kidding somewhat. That being said, Arbok should totally get a Poison/Dragon Mega Evolution with Protean.

Really Japan?

Pirates search for treasure chests not those chests

[FalKoopa]

Goes With Everything 2016 Edition has been released:

Sounds pretty good, though I still wish the opening melody was a little more pronounced.

The actual melody is a little too de-emphasised for my taste.

The electrical guitar nearly overshadows the actual theme.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

No, pirate's are more about booty

Are you a chest or booty pirate?

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

And we all know that the fanboys would love to look for Robin and Nami's treasure "chests". ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Pirates are more about the booty though

Yes, this is from the actual game
Also, I guess Leo is a pirate now

I highly recommend Cowboy Bebop. Probably one of my favorite shows in general. I really liked how it had a more western feel to it compared to other anime, plus the soundtrack is amazing imo. Dub is also the best way to watch it anyway

Oh come on! How can you forget about the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock? She is the most beautiful thing in the universe.

Just trying to figure out which one I'd rather plunder

Rip Pirate class
Leo X Shura then?
I wonder how good Shura!Forrest would be, Adventurers have decent Mag growths

Funnily enough, the music for the Air Force stage?

Literally another remix of Guile's theme lol. More in line with the original track.

Nah, that vain ***** pales in comparison to the real booty of Big Mom.

Just had a go at the Mini Mario & Friends game that came out today.

I've completely forgotten the cartoony grunts the Thwomp's make in this series. I think that's the only time they actually have a voice other than Super Mario 64, no?

 

[FalKoopa]

Much better, although this one has shortened the theme noticeably. Still, I do like this more.

This is probably the strangest thing I've heard all day.

I've heard of people seeing just the Avengers films but for you you have seen all of them but the Avengers films.

You got to get on that man.
