The one thing about an NX Smash 4 port, didn't Sakurai say he disliked the idea of updating games?

As I see it... In a hypothetical Smash 5....

:4sonic: Stays. End of discussion.

:4bayonetta: Sega is easy to work with. As is Platinum Games. Nintendo has a huge part in the series now and was included by winning the ballot. Only issue is that she's not very kid friendly, but they got her to work anyways. I feel her lack of pedigree may hurt her but the ballot is a strong point in her favorite. Likely to stay. She may never get another game but I feel the ballot makes sure that won't be counted against her regardless, no one has been kicked out due to lack of recent titles. I suppose there are complaints of realism but eh.....

:4pacman: Namco has always had good relations with Nintendo. Will always be relevent because it's ****ing Pac-Man. Now that they have used him. They'd be idiotic to not use him. Again, it's ****ing Pac-Man. No one will not want him. Likely to return.

:4ryu:Will never stop being relevent. Capcom has never been on bad terms with Nintendo and neither has the Street Fighter series despite its prominence on other consoles. Not much going against him other than potential directors not liking him or unpredictIble events. Has no real reason to go. Has a few complaints of realism but those are rather unfounded. Likely to return.

:4megaman: Again Capcom and Nintendo are cool. Was included due to massive requests despite lack of recent titles and the creator leaving. No real reason to go as that would cause an amount of backlash almost as big as Sonic's potential removal. No real reason to go. Synonymous with Nintendo. Likely to return.

:4cloud:The most hard to predict. On one hand, Square Enix is a ***** to work with. On the other end, and I don't think people stress this enough, they said YES. The actually let another company use their IP. And not just any IP. Their pride and joy and that IPs's poster boy. That is momumtal is itself. Just goes to show how big Smash is. Square and Nintendo have had a shaky history but they've been patching it up in recent years with both companies making great gestures towards each other. I only see their relationship improving from this point on. Cloud admittedly is more synonymous with Sony and Playstation, but it seems Square doesn't think he has to be. Plus Final Fantasy as a whole isa big part of Nintendo history. I feel that he would have more content if he was a Vanilla fighter but eh, water under the bridge. I can't say with certainty but I feel he can make it. It say it's close to 50/50 but more likely than not.


:snake:Snake. Buddy. What the hell happened? You had a chance before but Konami's dickbuttery has destroyed your chances moving forward unless your IP gets saved from their evil clutches. Now that aside. We don't know why Snake didn't return. Too mature or realistic? Bayonetta and Ryu seem to counter that. Moreover, Snake was included in the first place. Raising the rating? Maybe but I'm not too sure. Bayonetta made it in and other games has included realistic weaponry with an E10 rating. Even firearms. Did Konami say no? I'm not sure. Kojima said he was never asked but it's possible Sakirai went to Konami first and got shot down. Was it Nintendo? Again maybe. Apparently people didn't like Snake and Sonic in Brawl but due to the large growth in Third Parties I'd say they don't have much power or stopped caring. Did Sakurai stop caring? I don't think so. He liked Snake and valued his inclusion. I just don't know why he was cut. It is the biggest mystery Smash has ever had. I hope Sakurai talks about him soo. Regardless, Snake is synonymous with Playstation but got in Brawl anyways when Nintendo seemed to care about that more. He's gritty and realistic so complaints about that aren't unfounded but I'm not sure how much weight they truly hold. Konami historically has liked Nintendo but the new president seems to hate all console gaming like a poopmeister. Still, the Mewtwo effect is going strong and he is very requested and will be in the future. Possible but I doubt it. Love to be wrong though.


Personally, I want them all back as they all bring so much to the table and I'm against cuts. I also think the Smash 4 cast will stay due to an Ultimate style port for the NX, so.... Make of that what you will.
Actually Square isn't that hard to work with like people believe. There is some method in the madness but it's not like they were just unapproachable or hard to deal with.

Time restraints, timing and just trying not to spoil or do too much with the Remake on the horizon is just bad luck. I mean they were willing to put Lara Croft in PSASBR but they wanted to focus on the reboot moreso.

He said he hated games becoming sequals as they become stuck in a rut. Frankly it's an immature ideal and the fine quality of the Kirby franchise today proves it doesn't have to be. Hope he's grown out of it.



Also, ****buttery is apparently not caught by censors. @Firus Opossum Opossum Letting you guys know. Regardless, do I keep it in or change it?

So does anyone have good tips to crank out coins quickly/easily in Smash Wii U?

Sometimes I wish I can just transfer all of my coins from Smash 3DS as I got 100% on it back in February and have nearly 63,000 coins just sitting there.
Crazy Orders is the best way off the top of my head. Just choose the tickets that have coins as a prize, and their values go up the farther you go. You can also try selling unneeded equipment. If you want to efficiently play through Crazy Orders really easily, make a custom build for your character that has the "Home Run Bat Equipped", "Fast Bat Smasher", and "Vampire" bonus effects. Also prioritise speed and/or defense over power if you can. Also I would suggest doing this with Mario if you haven't already passed 20 turns in Crazy Orders with him and then defeating Crazy Hand and Master Hand, as there is a Challenge for doing so.

Also if you haven't 100% completed Events Mode yet (e.g clear all Events on Hard Mode and get all bonus reward conditions), do that. Doing so gets you like, 2 Million coins IIRC. You also build up quite a lot of coins along the way too. I think doing the same in Co-Op Events also gets you 500,000 coins too, as well was whatever you build up from playing the mode.

Events and Smash Tour are good ways to build coins for free.

I did that sometimes before, as my computer double clicks with the left mouse button (on every single OS, and every single mouse). It was driving me insane -- led to some double posting so I switched primary click buttons. Now I click with the right mouse button, and Im working out my middle finger.

Depends, it could be someone who misclicked or someone who read your post and than realized something after reading. Either way, it's probably nothing personal. Why are you looking at me like that? I not the kind of person to do this...

I think my playtime in Xenoblade Chronicles (Wii game) is around 70 hours right now. I just played it for a few yesterday.

I haven't been playing it as much because I am stuck in the story. I am underlevelled for...

Disciple Lorithia

...so I've just been exploring and doing quests and such. Gained a few levels along the way but if I wanna beat that boss I'll probably have to find a good enemy to grind for my level.

Everyone I have ever seen talk about this game was underleveled for that fight. It's really dumb. I only beat it without grinding by using an even more dumb strategy :p

The complaints of realism for Bayonetta don't really work, need people be reminded her hair is her clothing, and she has four guns, 2 of which are her high heels, so she fits the ridiculous level of Smash just fine.

Also on Snake, Metal Gear is a series steeped in Sci-Fi, Snake is no more darker then Sams is, so he fits in fine.

Seriously any complaints about Snake and Bayonetta being to realistc are unfounded, since they both reveal in Sci-fi and fantasy worlds their in

Edit: Changed Serious to to realistic, to get what I actually mean across better

Everyone I have ever sen talk about this game was underleveled for that fight. It's really dumb. I only beat it without grinding by using a really dumb strategy lol.
I've tried playing as Melia, with Reyn and Sharla, which everyone suggests is how you beat it properly since her skill set is best suited for it and since Melia's A.I is really bad, but she just doesn't survive long enough for me right now. And the boss' name tag is still red for me. So yeah I guess I will have to grind.

I think part of the reason I am underleveled is because once you get to around Eryth Sea/Valak Mountain, a lot of the enemies and side quests start to require absurdly high levels that you couldn't hope to be at during those points in the story, which limits the EXP you can naturally get from exploring and what not. Then when going through Mechonis, you run into that problem again. So what happened was I just followed the trail and didn't explore too much. I fought a few boss monsters and did the Surprise Quests and such but not much else. I also can't revisit Mechonis right now for obvious reasons.

I guess that's one complaint I have about the game, the whole mid-section of the game seems like it was balanced weirdly.

I agree with everyone up to Cloud staying.

I think that like you said Cloud could go either way. Perhaps his massive use, and downloads in Smash will convince them that he should stay next installment and maybe even lead to more content from FF.

As For Snake, as long as Konamii holds his ip he won't be coming back. I do hope though that without Kojima the new metal gear either fails horribly or fans boycott the game due to what they did and then Konamii sells the ip realizing they won't benefit from it anymore. But that probably won't happen sadly :(

.Pretty big image so quick recap.Day 1 and we already got some deaths Opossum Opossum kills himself. @KenboCalrissian dies from hunger and @epicmartin7 gets ambushed by Champ Black,Zoroark25, and Sonicbrawlee128
Sorry @epicmartin7 R.I.P.

and poor kenbo!

Also it's SMRPG's 20th anniversary soon?

Mario RPG HD please/anyone?
Nothing happens on night 1 but day 2.welll

You know, I was told by a friend that Corrin is fanservice because of how unique he is...
So with that logic, if Slippy Toad was completely unique, would that make him fanservice?

I instinctively like a post when I see it already has a lot of likes haha, but I try not to like posts that contain censored words, so a lot of the time I'll like a post and then read it and immediately unlike.

Other times I'll try to like a post and accidentally double-tap (on mobile) and go through a like roulette haha.

At this point I'm just happy a million people didn't quote it.



But seriously, this. It's not hard, people.
