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

[Wario Bros.]

I still have a hunch we could see a Direct mid November but I'm not betting on it.

And there's no way anyone will have the Direct's contents spoiled either.

 

[NintenZ]

That was the Rosalina Smash reveal? I remember that.
Doesn't count!

Speaking of Indivisible, that looks great. Why does it look like its going to fail

Probably because it's near struggling to break its goal, hopefully it does, but it could go either way unfortunately, which is sad... I really want this game to succeed as I've played the prototype and it's really good tbh, I hope it passes its goal.

 

[LIQUID12A]

There is no Direct source able to Directly tell us the Direct contents and air date of a Direct.

Which Directly makes this Direct leak point towards fake.

 

[Dravidian]

The more i look into indivisible the more sad i am its going to mess it's goal and be cancelled, sxrewing the whole company

Don't be sad, spread the word about it! It's much more helpful. Even if they fail the closer they get to their campaign goal the more likely they are to retry.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

THIS IS WHERE I AM PREPARED.

http://smashboards.com/threads/nint...ophe-feat-swamp.405399/page-932#post-20030938
(This is before the collapse tags stopped working)
Also, this doesn't include Indivisible.

Thanks for that. Let's say that's fifteen games (it's late I ain't counting again)

So besides the Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Kirby, Pokemon and third party series and taking into account Fox, Samus and Captain Falcon's cameos through the years...



Wow, for a knight he sure has no trouble throwing his loyalties around. Though I guess chivalry does involves helping others wherever possible.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Holy crap these things are awesome.

I wish Xenoblade X had Amiibo support for these characters.

This alone would make me interested in Xenoblade Chronicles X.

 

[Champ Gold]

I just expect a mini direct for the games coming out this holiday season and a Direct in early December related to TP HD, possible DLC for Smash, Splatoon and more info on HW Legends, FE Fates, Star Fox Zero release date Lucas Amiibo and maybe a surprise here or there.


Don't expect anything special

 

[NintenZ]

@GoldenYuiitusin, What other cameos is Shovel Knight supposed to have? (If anymore are planned of course)

 

[A Distant Demon]

Unfortunately that isn't looking like a possibility
https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/3rk1x9/were_lab_zero_games_makers_of_skullgirls_ama/cwoqvnc

. . .
we'll likely have to go dormant for a bit if we pursue that. Dealmaking takes time, and the industry pretty much shuts down after Thanksgiving.

People will likely have to take on some kind of work to survive during that downtime, which risks them not being around if we do sign something else, too.

TLDR. . .if the Indiegogo doesn't meet it's goal Lab-zero might (hopefully temporarily) wind up disbanding :/

 

[NintenZ]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm planning on putting some funds into the game almost immediately. About right now.

Well in that case
[pulls out nerfgun and ski mask]
Time to go "shopping".

But seriously I hope they make it...I doubt it, but....I just hope they do. I'm been supporting that team back when Skullgirls was still just a beta. They're a really nice and talented group of people, but at times they seem cursed...

I'm actually nervous about this because I love the gameplay of Skullgirls and designs especially with Ms Fortune and Cerabella.

I would disheartened if Skullgirls die off.


Now I'm not interested in Indivisible nor think it's looks interesting IMO but Lab Zero needs to stay alive. Skullgirls shouldn't die

 

[Z25]

There is no Direct source able to Directly tell us the Direct contents and air date of a Direct.

Which Directly makes this Direct leak point towards fake.

So what I'm hearing is direct confirmed?

I want there to be a Direct on the 12th, but I want it to be 100% different compared to the "leak".

Just to see reactions.

So basically the April 1st direct, but just as if not more amazing?

ahahaha good god that direct "leak"

it says something that ive lost count on how many times i thought to myself "this is the saddest attempt at a leak ever" on many leaks



EDIT: Also keep Cloud the **** out of my Smash Brothers.

Wait which leak s this? I thought it was the one with 2 pikmin games,2 new f zeroes, a new more, nx details, and much more from the land of make believe. And does cloud get involved in it?

If I had never seen Skullgirls I wouldn't care for it at all. But that alone is some good ****. Losing lab zero would be a travesty. Their style is too good to lose

prototype downloaded. If only I had a controller

You know speaking of Skullgirls, you know how I'm a writer, well currently I'm writing a fanfiction called Steven Universe X Skullgirls.

 

[Soul.]

I expect there to be a Direct of a Direct which will lead to future Direct presentations with a new format Direct to you coming next year because everyone wants 2016 to be a thing.

Is there another 4chan Direct leak?

 

[NintenZ]

Huh, well good thing I just funded Indivisible on Indie-gogo, hopefully it counts towards something. Shovel Knight is probably the most successful indie character I believe.

Wow, never thought I'd see Juan as an anime character. :3

 

[Wario Bros.]

Seeing Yokai reminded me of a game that also has Pokémon inspirations that I've been supporting: Keitai Denjuu Telefang (for Game Boy Color).

WOW! Looking at the progress of its English translation project, it's one version 108. Hard to believe the project started in 2008.

 

[NintenZ]

So the fanfiction isn't too complex really, it's just Pearl's story if she were in Skullgirls, finding herself there through a magical accident involving Rose Quartz' room and Steven's gem. And then she interacts with other characters from the game, it'd be so great if this were a real thing and she was a guest character, but that's a pipedream.

LTP, don't take this the wrong way, but he knows that they're probably wrong, you don't need to make him look bad. I've seen that your additude can kind of be aggressive sometimes. :/

Well, thanks for that. I've been trying to improve on my attitude here for months.

It's not the name change or talking about the game. It's the nonstop posting of gifs and image macros that is getting overboard.

Again, I don't have anything against being a fan of something or being hyped, but there comes a point where people can come across as obnoxious. Of course, the Smash fanbase is guilty of this too, including people on this very forum.

I don't know, I just feel that BluePikmin is a little too excited compared to what could be considered as being hyped. It's just rubbing me off the wrong way. I don't mean any offense, but it gets upsetting sometimes. I think it is telling when other people on this thread had similar reactions to certain images he posted a while back.

Lastly, given the sarcastic nature of my post, I wasn't completely serious, but I'd be lying if I said it was just a joke.

In regards to "mai waifu" stuff: I'm not a big fan of shipping and waifu stuff. I do get annoyed when all some manga/anime fans discuss about a series is shipping and waifus and husbandos and whatnot when there's more to said series than that, which is why I tend to stay away from the manga/anime fanbases. I like manga and anime, but the fanbases surrounding those are, more often than not, just terrible.

Yeah, I agree with how the constant gifposting and image macros need to stop. I can see your point of view, definitely, I just don't agree with it.

Sorry if I shouldn't be bringing this up but I just got on Smashboards after a few hours. But thank you for responding maturely.

Wow, for a knight he sure has no trouble throwing his loyalties around. Though I guess chivalry does involves helping others wherever possible.

I think out of those, it's Olimar that's the most surprising, considering how they put Pikmin in, like, everything.


But that's also just the thing. The Pikmin themselves actually appear more than Shovel Knight, but Olimar doesn't. For those wondering, I believe Olimar's had ten appearances: Pikmin, Pikmin 2, Pikmin 3, Melee (trophy cameo), Brawl, Smash 4, Super Mario Maker (8Bit costume), WarioWare DIY (9-Volt minigame), Collectible Badge Center (sticker cameo), and Animal Crossing City Folk (he writes the player a letter despite not being physically seen), which is still all in all pretty neat. Makes me wish that Superstar Saga cameo would have actually happened. :|

Well Myomoto has stated previously that the Pikmin are the main characters rather than Olimar.

Another episode of RANDOM ANIMAL FACTS WITH SWAMP!

Spoiler: Once again! Animal Facts with Swamp!

Do you know what an Okapi is?

They're amazing animals!

Take a look!

Cool huh? These animals are actually my favorite!

Okapis are ungulates (hoofed animals) that live in the rain-forests of Africa. They're incredibly shy and for many years, no one but the native people knew they even existed. Quite the feat for an animal that is about six feet tall.

They're related to another African animal.

Can you guess what it is?











No. It's not the Zebra.

This picture may give you a hint.

Look at that tongue! It's incredibly long just like it's relative...


The giraffe.

Giraffe's tongues are actually a couple of feet long. Okapi tongues aren't that long but still its quite big. The tongues of both creatures are used to get the delicious leaves at the tops of trees.

You know, I used to be into Okapis a little, but they're kind of a base tier obscure animal. They're kind of like an old meme: they used to be great, but they got overdiscussed and now. . .yeah.

These guys are much cuter:

See? Vastly superior.
