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

[Champ Gold]

... wait a minute

There's no Fountain of Dreams or Saffron City DLC

I have now found something to be angry about

You damn right, where the hell is my Pokemon Stadium 1?

Y'know

I kinda want to know wtf was up with Tama's and Roger's sources.

Not surprising that they were all jank but I expected some level of truth (at least with Tama's, I half expected a SK mii costume to turn up today)

Like multiple people said before it was as due to a mistake on the part of the amiibo and that crap website that used the Artsy Omni render for the amiibo.

We can say it wasn't because of that but you can't tell me that damn amiibo didn't have something to do with it.

But I do wonder how much the support for Butt Butt in the next Smash game will be? I seriously doubt it'll be as big as it was the last 8 months since the ballot started

 

[Chrono.]

How much would you be willing to bet that Goku and Shrek were two of the characters that beat Bayonetta that couldn't be realised?

Tbh I think they might've been Wolf or Snake.

 

[IceBreakerXY]

How much would you be willing to bet that Goku and Shrek were two of the characters that beat Bayonetta that couldn't be realised?

one of them defintely was goku.I have 0 doubt in my mind.I wouldn't be surprised if another was shrek,*insert microsoft character*, and *insert konami character*

 

[Fenriraga]

*looks at title*

...Don't you mean, walked into a SWAMP?

 

[N3ON]

I will say though that that Bayonetta art piece is one of the best things I've ever seen in my life holy ****.

<3<3<3

 

[Con0rrrr]

I'm really enjoying Cloud.

He's the kind of character with the toolkit I always wanted.

Quick and Nimble but hits hard with a lot of strength and hitlag. Add onto that 2 spikes and a projectile... He's awesome.

I've always loved Cloud, but him being fun in Smash 4 makes me want to try him out competitively. I never really enjoyed Smash 4 competitively... but I may pick it up now.

 

[Deleted member]

It's almost 2016 and people are still using sales to justify characters getting in or not

 

[Opossum]

I will say though that that Bayonetta art piece is one of the best things I've ever seen in my life holy ****.

<3<3<3

Little Mac and Ryu punching each other is seriously one of my favorite things.

 

[Captain Fun]

To be fair, age =/= maturity. There are teenagers who could be more mature than adults.
Age is simply a number in the grand scheme of things.

Of course, but you'd just hope adults would know better. It's not healthy to waste energy being angry about stuff like this.

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

Honestly, at this point the standards for a character are so low I'm actually expecting Goku by Smash 5. Can't wait for that.

<3<3<3

That's why it's a lock screen wallpaper for my phone

 

[AreJay25]

Minor nitpick about the newcomer posters.

Sonic's only in 2 of them... and only in sprite form. Wish they did a little more with him.

 

[Opossum]

Honestly, at this point the standards for a character are so low I'm actually expecting Goku by Smash 5. Can't wait for that.

I don't see how the standards have dropped considering the ones we got are still video game characters. I get being disappointed, but this is just asinine.

Mac & Ryu, Peach & Game n' Watch and Shulk & R.O.B. was funny too
Also I really love how they made the Smash Logo with the Clock Tower explosion and the Moon
It's the little things

 

[ChikoLad]

tbh goku would have been more hype than corrin

admit you guys like to sound high brow but at the end of the day a lot of people would love him

 

[Mr.X98]

I'll be honest here. I would have taken a Xenoblade Chronicle X representative over Corrin. It might have been a better promotional and would allow for a minority representative to push up a bit.

Anybody feel the same? Or would he best for smash 5.

Either way, 4chan won, they just misspelled "Cory" with "Corrin".

 

[Oasis Dealer]

Well, that sure was a direct. Personally I've never been one to care for character representation, so seeing Corrin, I didn't look at it as "Great, another FE character" but as "Ok, what does this character have". After seeing his moveset, Clrrin looks pretty good. Might not pick him up, but will probably play as him in fun matches.

Now Bayonetta...I'll be honest, she was my first ever pipe dream character. She's just so cool and I loved what she could do in her games. Because of the 3rd parties though, I never saw her with a good chance. With that said, I do think this ballot is what Bayonetts needed to get in. And with that, I'm extremely happy. Plus the music....oh God the music. I'm sad this didn't get chosen though.

Of course I'm sad Snake didn't happen. Even then, I'll get over it. I didn't get angry Mewtwo wasn't in Brawl, won't do the same here. I'll just remember how great of a character he was.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I love how everyone's saying 'SAKURAI PROMISED FANSERVICE' out of anger for Bayonetta completely forgetting she applies to both meanings

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

This Smash presentation and its DLC in a nutshell

 

[Substitution]

tbh goku would have been more hype than corrin

And I can.
In J-Stars.
Where he belongs.
(In all seriousness though I'd probably get over it quickly provided he looks fun.)

 

[MainJPW]

If it were Kid Goku...maybe.

And I can.
In J-Stars.

(In all seriousness though I'd probably get over it quickly provided he looks fun.)

Pretty much this, if you truly want to play as Goku in a crossover fighting game then J-Stars is the game for you.

 

[Con0rrrr]

I was disappointed at first. But since I got Cloud in, I can't really complain. Smash 4 is a damn good game.

Well... I guess this is it. I might make a Smash 5 prediction list so I can look back on it when Smash 5 speculation begins.

Honestly, I feel speculation/confirmation of a new Smash could come as early as 2017/2018. Nintendo wants to move NX systems? Slam Smash on it. It worked on the Wii U.

 

[Bedoop]

As much as I give no ****s about Bayonetta itself (Gameplay looks awesome, but all the torture and special moves is making me ehhhh)
I gotta admit
Bayo has a JAZZY soundtrack kickin' with her gun boots.

Take this, f'example.
Snazzy as all hell.
Just
MMMMM
Dem some good saxophones. And the Choir goes great with it.
Makes me wan' dance.
Jus' get up n' boogie.

I love how everyone's saying 'SAKURAI PROMISED FANSERVICE' out of anger for Bayonetta completely forgetting she applies to both meanings

I'm not the only one who saw that irony
Good on us

 

[Chrono.]

I'm actually way more excited about Bayo's stage than the character herself.

And this is why.

Mother****ing After Burner, man.

 

[JamesDNaux]

I think the biggest disappointment overall is how little Cloud comes with.

There are seriously only two music tracks, on the Wii U. What?

Did Sakurai have to give up a load of stuff just to get the Geno costume or what? Did Midgar just eat up all of the dev time?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

How come Geno's theme was in the thing but didn't make it into the game?

Or, y'know...Beware the Mushroom Forest

 

[Solfiner]

The answer would most definitely be Square Enix shenanigans.

Bayonetta has a lot more content for example.

 

[eltacoenojado]

I'm kinda sad Wolf is gone, but at the end of the day, it's just a video game. A dang good one at that. It's been quite a ride.

 

[Substitution]

I guess the next question is where do we go from here. Leaks are dead, speculation has ended, and it's gonna be a long while before Smash 5. What do we do?

I'd probably say a mix of both.
Geno is REAAAALLY touchy in Squeenix Grounds, it's a miracle they even let a Mii Costume happen.
Plus Midgar is freaking insane

I'm actually way more excited about Bayo's stage than the character herself.

And this is why.

Mother****ing After Burner, man.

Is "Let's Dance, Boys" a song in that stage
I didn't check
Is it
I'm hoping it is
Love that song.

Smash NX will probably just be on the same engine as Smash Wii U in order to retain as much content as possible.

And then just adding tons more onto it.

They'd be silly not to.

 

[Oasis Dealer]

It's not like Bayonetta was chosen for being the winner and that only....

And can you please stop the constant ****** and moaning? We got it the first time, you don't like the characters. That's perfectly fine. We don't need you to constantly repeat the same thing over and over however.

 

[Deleted member]

would allow for a minority representative

Well, you see, Corrin IS a minority
He's not only part of the endangered Manaketes but he's also a bisexual dragon and possibly a furry too

People whining because they didn't get what they wanted in a nutshell

Fixed

I think this had to do more with SE than Sakurai tbh.

Considering it's the only series without a single remix and it didn't come with an extra trophy like Ryu did and like Bayo will.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

"Roy and Ryu were characters the development team wanted to add in, and weren't chosen because of the Smash Ballot. From now on it is purely fanservice!"

Mfw only one ballot character, and two more dev-chosen characters, one of which almost nobody asked for.


I didn't come here to through more wood in the fire, I'm just mildly annoyed, and changed my username to reflect that.

 

[Bedoop]

Well, you see, Corrin IS a minority

Ze's also a Trap
"Big Brother is now Big Sister!"

~Best line ever​

Trap confirmed.
Ze's a trap, I tells ya.
Ze's a trap.

 

[Con0rrrr]

My reaction video's getting a good amount of dislikes because "How could you not care about Corrin and Bayonetta".

This man's trying to tell me it makes sense for FE to get 6 Reps because Mario has 7. Hello?

I at least enjoyed making the video. But damn. People can get upset so easily because someone else isn't excited

Spoiler: The video

 

[A Distant Demon]

How come Geno's theme was in the thing but didn't make it into the game?

Or, y'know...Beware the Mushroom Forest

Pretty sure every mii costume gets their theme play.
I remember Virtua fighter music playing but we dont have any songs in game. Geno wasn't singled out


Still salty as **** Midgar has a whopping 2 songs.

SE has so much good music. FF, BD, KH, DQ etc etc

and we get. . .2 songs. Not as disappointing as Bayo but im still very miffed about this.


Not even remixes. Ryu got lots of songs. Not Cloud

I blame SE

W/E. At least after rewatching Corrin he look fun as hell.

I guess the next question is where do we go from here. Leaks are dead, speculation has ended, and it's gonna be a long while before Smash 5. What do we do?

Do what we always do.

Argue and talk Nintendo

 

[Chrono.]

Ever since DLC we speculated more about other games than Smash lol

Not to mention NX shenanigans

 

[Opossum]

Also, while it's okay to be disappointed, constantly saying the same things over and over is spam and will be treated as such. Consider this your warning.
