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

[NintenZ]

Do you think Sakurai's gun stance in Smash has changed or were Bayo's guns just fantasy enough to be included? Do you think she paves the way for Snake to eventually come back with guns, or other gaming icons like the RE characters, Dante, and Lara Croft to be included?

Her guns are very cartoonish and fantasy-like, so I don't think that they were much of a problem.

 

[Burruni]

They forgot to make a leg Kirby of best leg girl.

How often do you actually see her legs, though?
I'll give them a pass on that.

I think the 'no gun' rule could be dismissed solely because of Bayonetta's sheer demand

If you play Rosalina in MK8 you likely see them all of the time because she goes so well with bikes (stat wise and aesthetically).

And then there is the new Mario Tennis.

Plus, she doesn't fire bullets, which may be more what Sakurai is worried about. That does make sense, at least. Realistic guns are different from bullet-spewing guns.

She fires lipstick as bullets too

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Yeah. Heh. Honestly, I feel like the guns are fantasy-based or are considered censored enough, since Konami/Upperdeck has done similar things. They took a regular pistol and gave it an Egyptian recoloring to get past the censors. It does look cooler too.

 

[Shroob]

It still blows my mind that Rosalina is taller than Bayonetta.

btw, Advance Wars, yay or nay?

I hope so. Seeing Lara Croft in Smash would be awesome, especially with the Samus vs Laura match up. Also, I think there could be some neat ideas done with the duel pistols.

Also if they ever decide to bring back Snake, I hope they give him his tranquilizer like in Project M. That move is so great to use that I wish it was part of his default moveset.

Actually... Since we have a character from a really raunchy recent Japanese M-Rated game...

Spoiler

Juliet from Lolipop Chainsaw for Smash 5 anyone?

Beat it last night.

Yay.

It's just......

I beat Sturm on my first try. It just took 4 HOURS!

Certainly pushing it up on the priority list, I got an eshop card too

IMHO, I'm thinking more the latter. But who knows exactly? Maybe Sakurai made an exception for Bayonetta and/or did everything he could to make them as non-realistic as possible. For Snake, I'm pretty sure he won't come back with guns. For other icons, I guess it depends on the guns they wield. Like the RE characters or Lara Croft most likely wouldn't get in considering they do use real guns.
Dante, maybe. I mean, last time I checked, Bayonetta was done by the same people who did DMC, so they could take some hints from SSB Bayonetta to help with fitting Dante in. But I don't know much about Dante and how his pistols work.

In other news, I ended up watching all of the current Gravity Falls seasons and episodes in a couple days. Actually surprised me on how better and interesting it got after the first episode. All in all IMO, it's well done and fun to watch and I am surprised how much I found myself liking Stan.

 

[LIQUID12A]

If anything, I think people in this thread are exaggerating Isaac's popularity if they think it's possible that he scored that high on the ballot despite getting no content whatsoever in the end (and being the only realizable popular candidate to not get anything, no less).

Kind of what happens when we live in our own little bubble.

The final results of the ballot are really an eye opener towards that fact.

This is why SpongeBob Jokes go so well with Smash Bros. It's almost heavenly.

There was also this one from last year,

Well... you guys have most likely seen the video I posted above as I didn't realize it was uploaded in February of 2014. So I found a compensation of sorts.

This one's my personal favorite

 

[Z25]

So I decided to play through pokemon insurgence again with a randomizer challenge.

My starter choices were:

eevee, electcross, swanna, quagsire.

I choose electross

My rival gets....

a ******* Deoxys.

This is why I don't do randomizers... But this should be fun. And electcross one shotted it with crunch lol.

 

[Fenriraga]

Eternally the best of the "Where's Mewtwo" vids.

 

[epicmartin7]

Alright, here's some more SpongeBob comics and then I'll be done.

Spoiler

Spoiler: SpongeBob Comic #1

Spoiler: SpongeBob Comic #2

Spoiler: SpongeBob Comic #3

Spoiler: SpongeBob Comic #4

Spoiler: SpongeBob Comic #5

It's a lot of them, but they do give you a good laugh lol.

 

[Z25]

And my luck continues...

Spoiler

This is why I will also never do a nuzlocke, because this is the type of luck I would have. To those in this thread doing a nuzloke good luck!

 

[Kingslime304]

I guess I will give you people three little treats that I have in my head ever since Bayonetta was revealed:

What do you think of it?

Bump

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Bump

Why'd you bump that?

I think none of those people are worth wasting time on. The third one was the best out of them, but even then I could only stand 20 seconds. These people are doing nothing but venting their rage on the internet. It's nothing different then what happened after Greninja or Palutena or Miis or [insert any character here] were revealed. Nothing more than "wah muh character didn't get in wah." They set themselves up for their disappointment, and have no one else to blame but themselves.

I just forced my entire family to watch Snowpiercer
They all hate me now

Aside from being fun to play as, one of the main reasons I like Cloud is:

Giant swords are so cool.

Pffft
Everyone knows Haku is WAY better!

What is a Pokemon Insurgence?

 

[Curious Villager]

Oh gosh the Greninja & Mewtwo shenanigans.

We're going through a trip down memory lane aren't we? I'll probably go and look back at some early Villager and Wii Fit trainer jokes too sometime....

 

[Chrono.]

They all look so uninterested.

 

[ChikoLad]

It still blows my mind that Rosalina is taller than Bayonetta.

I'm not sure if she is in Smash yet. But canonically, she easily is.

Bayonetta really isn't that tall, if Anarchy Reigns is anything to go by (the characters there have official heights. Bayonetta's is given in some made up "Umbran Witch" metric, but she's shorter than characters who are 6 feet tall). I believe she's like 5'8" there. Rosalina is canonically 7'7". Bayonetta just has absurdly long legs in proportion to the rest of her body, making her look super tall (also those huge heels give her a boost). Rosalina on the other hand, is just huge in every aspect.

What is a Pokemon Insurgence?

It's a fanmade pokemon game, where you have to save this region from cults that have taken over and overthrown the one person who was protecting the region. It's really good.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Bump

"Why would you vote for ****ing Bayonetta? Who wants that?"
Obviously the people who voted for her in your region as number 1 you stooge

My god, these idiots are really getting to me when they shouldn't.

"DOWN B SLOWING DOWN TIME!? THAT'S CHEAP AF!"
There is a reason it gets worse as you use it far out man

I honestly wonder if people who complain about this even watched the direct fully in the first place good lord >_>

And then the sword fighter complaints.

There are 47 other ****ing characters you can use.

Just. Use. Those.

Dang, lined up next to the other Mario characters, Rosalinalooks like some sort of cosmic André the Giant.

Muzzle fire and bullet shells, though.

Bayo's probably gonna do some ****ed up **** to him.
Be it what she usually does to Angels or otherwise.

Anyone remember this drawing?
タコベー

This was made way before Corrin was revealed!

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Who canonically the tallest character in smash?

I heard Ganondorf was like 7'6 in his OoT design, but he was like, 9'2 in Twilight Princess or something like that.

Then why is she normal in every other Mario spinoff than smash
