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

[Burruni]

Robin Hood may be a given. I think the last male character may have him.

It's the women that I can't figure out.
Two new characters were shown off in the trailer, a girl with an iron mask, and the tech girl with night vision/mask/thing.

What characters would fit them?

I think the former will have something tied to the "spectral" motorcycle seen in the trialer. No names come to mind.

The latter? I think we're gonna see something of the spy nature such as Mata Hari.

 

[Z25]

Oh yeah, the new president said something about pushing merchandise. Wonder what good **** that'll get us. inb4 official cosplay material

You know, I could actually see this. It be a pretty smart venture for them, and they'd probably make profits back on what it would cost.

Also everyone is forgetting, that we have whatever N stars is. Isn't that suppose to be a wii u title? Then the 3ds has sun and moon, which is all it needs really, with the support of the other titles on it.

And I think Cloud is definitely a sign of things to come.


And in other news:

Badge Arcade launched 4 new badges today in NA.

They feature different poses of Badge Bunny and are called thank you badges.

How do you get them?

Buy $1 of play for the first one.

For the second badge, buy $2 of play.

The 3rd is $3 dollars worth of plays.

And the 4th is buy $4 worth of plays.

If they are doing this, they definitely are making money off badge arcade.

At this point, I'd honestly be shocked if Badge Bunny does not end up in Smash if there is an NX title.

 

[powerprotoman]

well i know navigator girls persona will be alibaba (its her chat name in one of the cutscenes)
musketter girl strikes me as having robin hood
biker girl is a mystery considering she has a bike(al capone maybe)

and ya i was slightly intrested in ff15 and was worried that ps5 would be out in the summer keeping me from TMS
but nope i get both atlus rpgs

 

[Cutie Gwen]

If FF is confirmed for the NX, that means one major thing. THIRD PARTY SUPPORT!
Also, Anyone remember the 3DS Rick and Morty joke?

Turns out someone on the show ACTUALLY did this

 

[True Blue Warrior]

At this point, I'd honestly be shocked if Badge Bunny does not end up in Smash if there is an NX title.

I'm sure he'll be included in a future Smash game in one form or another.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Overwatch Open Open Beta is live btw. Anyone who wants to play on PC/One/PS4 can now. Not just people who got access codes from NeoGAF threads


FF15 and 7r are 20 times more hype for me than Zelda so I really hope that it's happens.

 

[Burruni]

...Rewatching to see how i overlooked this

Edit: I can't read kanji, that's why. But the big ufo with the gargoyle on it most likely is her Persona

N-Stars is a 3DS title.

However, the common theory is that it's an amiibo focused game. If it is, it'll probably be a dual release on Wii U and 3DS, like Mini-Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge.

I'm interested, but as far as we know, N-Stars will not be at E3 at this rate. We also don't know for sure what it is, and even the bit about it being amiibo focused is speculation.

[Guybrush20X6]

There's two ways Badge Bunny could work as a character. Either as a grab bag of Nintendo stuff that didn't warrant it's own character or with a style based around building up some kind of resource to use (akin to winning wood badges to earn chances to shoot for real ones.)

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

>No direct at e3.
How can nintendo be this incompetent? What the heck is wrong with them?

It makes you wonder if Iwata's passing made Nintendo turn upside-down.

 

[Solfiner]

Nintendo directs get almost as much traffic as their E3 presentations, at least when they do big reveals. Them waiting to actually show off more games is a smart move because otherwise people are going to be ultra disappointed.

ALL MY FEARS FOR THIS MOVIE HAS GONE DOWN THE DRAIN. (well atleast 50% of it)


I love those suits. Straight up Robocop+Iron Man. The helmets are impressive


But I miss the Spandex, it made it look less bulky

I REALLY don't care for the movie as Power Rangers was never my thing, but I remember when I saw you yapping about Rita's design in my new feed once. Now where's my goddamn English Kamen Rider the First adaptation dammit?

 

[---]

No Direct for E3? Well that's a bit disappointing as I'm not a Zelda fan.

Would guess we'll get a Direct by the end of this month as we're bound to get Sun/Moon news within the next week or two with Corocoro, plus we're past the general two month wait. That said, there's nothing left beyond a few select eShop titles I'm interested in on modern systems.

I guess it's a good time to have discovered how to bid/buy things on Yahoo Japan Auctions. My Famicom/Disk System collection will be booming by the end of the summer.

From what I've seen during the past few years, the Directs have also been known to give SmashBoards connection issues.

This is why I think it'll be a smart move to leave the NX reveal for Fall.

Why try to force a competition with the "PS4K" or whatever when they can just reveal it on their own terms and generate more hype that way?

 

[PK_Wonder]

Sooo... is it safe to assume Nintendo Space World 2016 (or some comparable live event/stage presentation) will be a thing? Surely they won't just release a glorified Direct right?

and when will they have it? My money is on September.

 

[ChikoLad]

It's not so much not revealing the NX I have a problem with anymore (though I still think they should reveal the system itself and save the game showcasing for their own event).

It's just having absolutely nothing else other than Zelda to show at E3.

I mean, Paper Mario: Colour Splash is slated for 2016. So is Federation Force. Regardless of kneejerk reception to those games, they should have them at E3 too. Zelda doesn't come out until 2017.

They won't have a Direct. It'll just be Treehouse streaming Zelda.

 

[Con0rrrr]

Just watched two episodes of that Teen Titans Go show everyone seems to hate. I watched the entire original series when I was younger.

I really don't think this show is as much of a sin as people say. I thought it was one of the funnier shows on the network lately honestly.

It's what's done later that everyone's disgusted by. They hyped up Slade appearing, which both fans AND haters of the reboot were curious about. Slade isn't seen at all, taken out offscreen and the rest of the episode is about Cyborg and Beast Boy whining that stuff they liked back in the day changed, AKA, "**** you, people who don't like this new TT show"

 

[Soul.]

They don't need to show NX at E3 only to make up for the "barebones" presentation they will have. If they make a special event about NX they're still going to get a lot of views.

E3 isn't the only gaming event of the year. And sure, while it's not dying it's becoming less revelant. Otherwise we would have a bunch of companies going all in instead of doing their own streams and presentations.

 

[PK_Wonder]

Yup, PlayStation Meeting 2013 in February 2013 was when Sony revealed the PS4, and look how successful that console is. I think most people are over the "NX No Show" and just annoyed that it's all but a "Nintendo No Show."

Ah I see. If it is amiibo focused, I can't see it being released only on 3ds as they lose sales that way.

Does anyone knows when the new Fates DLC is supposed to release today?

It should have been out by now, but I'd give till 5pm EST.

I agree. I actually like TTG as someone who was a huge fan of the original. It's meant to be less serious, not a continuation like many saw. It's usually pretty funny and has clever topics for episodes.

They can make up for that in other events.

There's Gamescon, PAX, GDC, TGS, etc etc

They don't get nearly as much coverage to come out of them though.

Nintendo don't do Treehouse streams at them, for one.

E3 is dying people,face it,and this time nintendo while is acting stupid,the hype for the top contenders last year was:
-The last delay
-Begging for money on stage
-Todd Howard eletric bogaloo

E3 nowadays is like friday party nights followed by an entire week of regret.

Saying that I am looking foward to Phil Spencer trying to make up from the crap on March .

 

[Ura]

Well on the plus side everyone's E3 predictions are going to be a lot more accurate then it's ever been before.

Here's hoping for a Direct in either May, early-June, or late-June. If I recall correctly E3 2012 was pretty barebones in terms of content and then it had a Direct a few weeks later that revealed s bunch of new/pre-existing titles. Personally I really want to see a Direct in May that reveals a bunch of new titles along with more Sun and Moon information.

I've never really understood Teen Titans Go! and its supply of rubbish. Sure it's one man's opinion, but Teen Titans often felt a lot better to watch.
