I think 2 minutes was a bit short for a game like XCX. 5-7 minutes seems like more reasonable a time for a "short version", considering reviews for games like Mario Tennis are longer than this XCX short version.GX made a shorter version of their Xenoblade X review.
.......... Geno looks great ^^ lol.... still want him in smash lolGeno was SMASHIFIED, not really but this is an amazing render that was made by Nibroc-Rock.
but i will put this render here in case if someone is trying to leak Geno anytime in the future so we could prove the leak is fake easily.
click the spoiler to see the render.
Either I made everyone go kill or I saved some people. Seeing Xmas avis... Hmm....At the Valley Windworks, Team Gaga is conducting some experiments. What experiments? I dunno, it's not like anyone cares, but they're evil so I gotta stop them!
Those grunts were a pushover, I bet their leader has some Bidoof or Zubat
~Hello, intruder, you seem to have defeated my grunts, but for what reason would you do such a thing?~
Well, duh, you guys are evil! And who the **** are you?
~You may call me Mars, one of the four admins of Team Galactic, and it seems you have misunderstood our actions...~
Team Galactic? Wasn't it called Team Gaga?
~...but since I'm fair, let's do it this way" we battle, if I win, you leave. If you win, we leave. How about that?~
Do I have a choice?
~teehee, of course not, silly!~
>Admin Mars sent out ZubatVS. Mars
See, told ya
>Go Bananija!
Ok, this is gonna be simple
>Zubat used Bite!
Uh, that's a decent amount of damage...
>Bananija used Defense Curl
>Bananija's Defense rose!
Trust me on this one
>Zubat used Bite
Stop, please
>Bananija used Rollout
>Bananija's attack missed
Ffffffffff
>Zubat used Bite
>a critical hit!
Ofc
>Bananija fainted
*sigh*
>Go! Oni333!
Just end this already
>Oni333 used Spark! It's super-effective!
>Zubat fainted
>Admin Mars is about to send in Purugly. Will you switch your Pokemon?
"Purugly"
"Badge Progress: 1/8"
"It evolves from Glameow starting at level 38."
Either I'm ****ed or I'm super ****ed
>Oni333, switch out! Go Teh Anna!
>Admin Mars sent out Purugly!
"Level 17"
Why I'm not surprised?
"Teh Anna is level 15"
Well, ****
>Purugly used Faint Attack!
"Deals 7 damage"
"Defense is 41"
"Other Pokemon don't even get to 30"
I'm super ****ed
>Teh Anna used Rock Smash! It's super-effective!
[Repeat 3 times]
>Purugly's defense fell!
Yes
>Teh Anna's Quick Claw activated!
YES
>Teh Anna used Rock Smash! It's super-effective!
>Purugly fainted!
YES!
And I did it without losing my Bidoof like last time ...oh yeah, nevermind...
>Player defeated Admin Mars
~Oh, I messed up there~
Yeah, you really did
~But it's allright, I enjoyed our battle~
You just killed my Pokemon!
~Exactly!~
...
You sadistic *****...
{My, my. Lose to a child, will you?}
~shut up, old hag, let's leave already~
{You're lucky I got all the energy we needed, all thanks to the great Charon!}
~ahem, the energy WE got~
{All you did was stand around and lose a battle}
~Well, and what did YOU do?~
So, about that leaving thing?
~oh yeah, I almost forgot! Okay, we're leaving now! I hope I can kill another one of your Pokemon next time!~
And with that, we rescued the scientist who is some girl's father, I hope I get a TM for my dead Pokemon
Given the licensing issues that resulted in Jill, Shuma and the costumes being pulled from PSN, I don't think MvC4 will happen any time soon Still sore about the DLC removal btwMan, watching the trailers for Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is always a blast:
Makes me hope that Marvel vs. Capcom 4 has just as good trailer cutscenes.
you mean 7 (not Mecha-Fiora) anyway I hope at least 3 more after cloudGiven the licensing issues that resulted in Jill, Shuma and the costumes being pulled from PSN, I don't think MvC4 will happen any time soon Still sore about the DLC removal btw
As for ballot picks, I'd say...at least three (I hope Snake and Mecha-Fiora are part of those three), at most I'd say...5. Yeah.
I think the reason why MvC4 won't ever happen is just due to Marvel wanting to make their own fighters and games overall in their own studioGiven the licensing issues that resulted in Jill, Shuma and the costumes being pulled from PSN, I don't think MvC4 will happen any time soon Still sore about the DLC removal btw
As for ballot picks, I'd say...at least three (I hope Snake and Mecha-Fiora are part of those three), at most I'd say...5. Yeah.
Mecha-Fiora is her trophy's name for that incarnation, plus imo Project X Zone 2 basically negated her spoiler status.you mean 7 (not Mecha-Fiora) anyway I hope at least 3 more after cloud
I wouldn't mind Loki and Ant-Man, just don't cut Doctor Strange and Shuma for the potential Mahvel 4 and don't have timed DLC and I'll be cool.I think the reason why MvC4 won't ever happen is just due to Marvel wanting to make their own fighters and games overall in their own studio
And they all suck. Mahvel 4 won't happen until 2021 and by then we'll miss out on characters like Doctor Strange and Shuma again with Loki, Ant-Man and Doc Ock replacing them
While its true most Xenoblade fans did everything they could to prevent spoilers for newer players, Sakurai shattered that rule by giving 7 a trophy & using that trophy in Smash Touryou mean 7 (not Mecha-Fiora) anyway I hope at least 3 more after cloud
So, what you're saying is that our debates about what constitutes fanservice doesn't mean much and we should wait for the Presentation for further elaboration, considering lots of different characters can be considered fanservice to different groups of people?I think fan service is too vague a word to go on.
It was also completely redundant of him to use that word since every character in Smash is fan service.
Sure, some might get in for more "promotional" reasons than others - Greninja being the obvious example, since they started development on him before his game was even so much as announced to the public, let alone Greninja himself - but pretty much everyone is in because the core, more niche Smash fanbase wanted them (I'd say Palutena and Dark Pit are the biggest examples of this, since the Uprising and Smash fanbase are pretty much almost completely overlapped due to the shared developer and Brawl introducing the Uprising versions of Pit and Palutena), the general, more mainstream Nintendo fanbase wanted them (Rosalina and Mewtwo, for example, are extremely popular in their own series' and are very well known), or because they are an unexpected addition that they know a lot of gamers, even non-Nintendo ones, would appreciate (Duck Hunt Duo and Pac-Man are just big cultural figures that made a mark on the industry, even if only one game mattered). While some characters may have been chosen for moveset potential initially, they would naturally fall into one of these criteria anyway, and all of these count as a form of fan service, and I believe Cloud fits into the last one, rather than being a ballot choice.
I'm not saying it's impossible Cloud was a ballot choice but if he was, it seriously had to be based off of like, a handful of votes, I doubt he was ever a front runner. Maybe Sakurai just saw him in the ballot and had a "****, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF HIM SOONER???" moment, and hopped straight to it regardless of his Nintendo/Smash fanbase popularity.
That's just my thoughts though. In reality, there's no real need to discuss it since we just need to wait and see what happens in the broadcast and in any Sakurai interviews/Famitsu articles that may come around afterwards.
And even then, the trophy having an effect in Smash Tour does not count as an in game role. DLC is optional, after all.While its true most Xenoblade fans did everything they could to prevent spoilers for newer players, Sakurai shattered that rule by giving 7 a trophy & using that trophy in Smash Tour
Pretty much.So, what you're saying is that our debates about what constitutes fanservice doesn't mean much and we should wait for the Presentation for further elaboration, considering lots of different characters can be considered fanservice to different groups of people?
He also spoiled Sheik being Zelda in Melee & imo 7 has become spoiler wise something like Zelda = Sheik, because like you said they did not hide her identity in Project X Zone 2.And even then, the trophy having an effect in Smash Tour does not count as an in game role. DLC is optional, after all.
Sakurai has had spoilers in trophies before, too (Lucas's Brawl trophy description comes to mind).
> Implying there's only one ballot characterI like Cloud, but that's a bummer if it's true that he's the ballot character. I really don't believe he scored that much higher than all the others.
THAT IS THE BEST SONG FROM X AND I WANT IT IN SMASH. WHETHER IT'S PART OF A NEW STAGE OR DLC MUSIC PACKS. I LOVE THAT SONG SO MUCH.
MY GAWD, I'M ALL FIRED UP WHEN I'M HEARING THIS SONG.
Not available in my country because of Sony?
MY GAWD, I'M ALL FIRED UP WHEN I'M HEARING THIS SONG.
> [the] ballot characterI like Cloud, but that's a bummer if it's true that he's the ballot character. I really don't believe he scored that much higher than all the others.
Nope, I'm not listening to XCX's soundtrack
MY GAWD, I'M ALL FIRED UP WHEN I'M HEARING THIS SONG.
I bet it's some of that *** en Pilot weeaboo *****Indivisible only needs 9%*
IT'S ALIVE! IT'S ALIIIIIIVE!
Wonder if anyone actually knows my Christmas avi
It's a good thing I decided to watch a Xenoblade playthrough before Smash U releasedHe also spoiled Sheik being Zelda in Melee & imo 7 has become spoiler wise something like Zelda = Sheik, because like you said they did not hide her identity in Project X Zone 2.
I'm still grateful Sakurai did not spoil the whole Xenoblade plot though, because 7 is just the tip of the iceberg imo
1. Unfinished Battle (Xenoblade)THAT IS THE BEST SONG FROM X AND I WANT IT IN SMASH. WHETHER IT'S PART OF A NEW STAGE OR DLC MUSIC PACKS. I LOVE THAT SONG SO MUCH.
*ahem* so um, I now pose a question. What are the top 10 video game songs you would like to see added in Smash somehow? I'll list mine shortly.
Someone's gonna be on the naughty list if they keep censor dodgingI bet it's some of that *** en Pilot weeaboo ****
As promised, here's mine.1. Unfinished Battle (Xenoblade)
2. Guile's Theme (Street Fighter)
3. RULES OF NATURE! (Metal Gear Rising Revengeance)
4. Halo Theme (Halo)
5. Burnt Ivory King (Dark Souls 2)
6. Phendrana Drifts (Metroid Prime)
7. You May Call Me Father (Bayonetta)
8. Dancing Mad (Final Fantasy VI)
9. Raise Thy Sword (Soul Calibur 2)

Am I limited to represented franchises, to franchises from represented companies or can I just go wild?THAT IS THE BEST SONG FROM X AND I WANT IT IN SMASH. WHETHER IT'S PART OF A NEW STAGE OR DLC MUSIC PACKS. I LOVE THAT SONG SO MUCH.

i wonder how that'd be implemented8. Dancing Mad (Final Fantasy VI)
I think it would only be the final part(the most iconic one) like it was in Theathrhythmi wonder how that'd be implemented
it's... what, 17 minutes?
There's also the Dissidia 012 version which if I'm not mistaken condenses itI think it would only be the final part(the most iconic one) like it was in Theathrhythm
<snip due to video limit just in case quotes count>
The entire soundtrack is justAny song from XCX in Smash would be awesome just by the fact it would mean music by Hiroyuki Sawano in Smash.
Of course, some of the best songs include THEMEX, MONOX, Uncontrollable, Black tar, Wir fliegen, NLA Shuuhen, Yakou Mori, Z5 Mira, The key we've lost, and Z29 Battle. I haven't listened to the entire soundtrack because I want to listen to most of the songs in the game itself, but those tracks are all amazing.
Many of Sawano's anime OSTs are just as good as the XCX OST, so they're worth a listen for those who like the music style found in XCX.
Attack on Titan, Blue Exorcist, Kill la Kill, Guilty Crown, Owari no Seraph, Aldnoah.Zero and Nanatsu no Taizai all have awesome music of the same caliber as XCX. I have watched all those anime series, so I can assure you they have plenty of good music. Of course, he's done music for a lot more stuff, but those are what I'm familiar with.
Well, it would be great, but I can't deny that Smash already features plenty of musical variety and the collaboration of many artists, including some favorites of mine.
If Cloud IS a ballot character then he won't be the only one. He'd be one of (at least) 3.I like Cloud, but that's a bummer if it's true that he's the ballot character. I really don't believe he scored that much higher than all the others.
