I mean technically it already exists, but the door sprite is a little different. I think it be awesome if yoshi transformed if Weird mario rode him, that is if they add him to the SMB style. Which I hope/ could see happen.

I was joking lol. But yeah, I've never actually met a mean Paper Mario supporter. They're some of the nicest supporters I've ever met. So both.

Pause the censorship. Pause the waifu talk. Pause it all.

I want you to hear this sentence and never forget it.

Without Bubsy 3D, Bubsy could've potentially had huge Smash demand.

You have to understand that the 3 Bubsy games before Bubsy 3D were received mixed to positive, and Bubsy 2 received mostly positive reviews back in the day.

If Bubsy continued as a series and Bubsy 3D was never invented, it's very much possible the company would've improved on the games judging from the criticism and it could be a classic series today.

However, Bubsy 3D was, as we know, universally panned, and killed Bubsy.

But remember; the Bubsy games excluding 3D were met with decent reception. Bubsy 1 was one of the most hyped games of the year it was released. They're not absolute travesties as you may assume.

ALSO, Bubsy was only on Nintendo consoles, if that adds to anything.

But with the hypothetical talk over...

Bubsy is receiving a new game.

It's on Steam Greenlight right now, and is being voted overwhelmingly "Yes". It's called Bubsy Two-Fur. It's just a compilation, yes, but they've said many of the criticisms of the games will be improved on. And it's most definitely coming to Steam; it's currently in the top 10 of most demanded "YES" for a Greenlight game.

And the developers have also said that if this Bubsy journey goes well, Bubsy may be revived, for a new generation, for a new age to see Bubsy, a platforming mascot of the 90's.

The fact is, is that, in say, 10 years, assuming Smash is still getting games (most likely is)...

Bubsy has a chance to be in Smash.

Bubsy may return to Nintendo systems with a very slow start, as a dismissable Wii U E-Shop exclusive or 3DS E-Shop exclusive, but it is likely that Bubsy will return to his home of Nintendo games are made.

This gives Bubsy nostalgia of sorts, a revived factor, Nintendo relevance, a large fandom (ironic or not), and actually well-received games besides the notorious Bubsy 3D.

And folks, to conclude this, I'll say it again.

Bubsy has a very small but existent possibility to be in Smash.

I haven't played the 2D Bubsy games, but from what I've seen of them being played, I don't think "absolute travesty" is all that much of a stretch, haha. Everything is instant death in most of the games, the screen is super zoomed in so it's easy to mess up, there are some outright trollish things (especially in the Jaguar game), the physics are floaty and jumping is imprecise, for some reason you have to collect 500 balls of yarn to get a 1-up etc.

I definitely don't mean to imply that it's "wrong" to find them fun though. I think it'd be super silly for me to make that kind of claim.

If I remember right, there were also PC ports and an original game made for the Atari Jaguar for some reason.

Skinny Mario, Woshi Skoshi and NES Woshi Skoshi
Only difference between NES Woshi Skoshi and NES Yoshi/Super Yoshi is that the eyes are White instead of green
Because it was either White Eyes, No Eyes or Red Demonic Eyes
So there's that :drshrug:

I Jes-see what you're saying, Golden, but you can't just Hank-er into the thread threatening to bring out the Heisenberg.

bubsy was on the ****ing jaguar?

i uh
i think that about sums the series up

Oddly enough, Rayman's debut was apparently on the Jaguar.

There sure are some "interesting" games on that system though. Ever heard of Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy?

Oh so your playing a great game with a garbage roster

Just like Mario Kart 8
Click to expand...
Yep, the game is really good but I don't think anybody would know any of the characters, out of the entire roster I'd bet they'd only know 5.

Well that's gotta be a contender for headline of the year.

I don't even know where to start with this. There is so much great potential here for memes and critic! I think the best part is how it's typo man focused and there are typos everywhere. I almost feel like this has to be done on purpose.

well, the only place I know he supports is reddit.

I started here than make a tumblr blog which has 776 followers (and that actually did made some votes).

Plus, I really spend hours to make that support thread OP :)

I'm definitely the most vocal reddit supporter. And I follow your tumblr blog lol.

So I gotta disagree on that Nintenzilla, though I do think I'm at least one of the most vocal.
