I'm actually somewhat okay with the whole "waifu" thing, I always saw it as another way of saying you have a crush on a fictional character. Though I do realize it does get out of hand.
I mean it is actually the genuine Japanese word for "wife" in some contexts, if I'm not mistaken.

It's just nerd culture in the west adapted it for the use you described.

And in general I see no problem in it either, since it's ultimately harmless at a baseline level. And really, I don't see why people STILL find the concept of "crushing on/being sexually attracted to a fictional character" strange considering this was one of the defining works that made the animation industry what it is today:


People too often forget about that.

Buying a PS4 today.

What games on there should I pick up besides Uncharted and Last of Us? Mainly exclusives, as I play multi-plat titles on my Xbox. Getting one for my channel, but I never understood how Playstation was said to have a better games lineup... as I personally see a lot more exclusives on Xbox. But what do you guys recommend?
I really enjoyed what I played of Killzone: Shadow Fall and I'm not even much of an FPS guy.

If there ever was an anime Smash game, I would only hope its name was Super Smash Onii-chan
That's all I ask for

Nintendo's Twitter told me to go here
http://www.nintendo.com/3ds/get-started/
Let's go there
"Welcome to your Nintendo 3DS System!"
Is actually 2DS but OK
"Have fun gaming on-the-go! You already know your handheld plays awesome games, but here are a few more ways to make the most of your new system."
Awesome Games?
What? I thought it was Badge Simulator
100+BADGESANDCOUNTINGBOYS
"Connect to the Internet over Wi-Fi and create a Nintendo Network ID!"
Did that
"Download a free demo or Free-To-Start game from the Nintendo eShop!"
Does Badge Center count
"Check if DLC is available for games you already down!"
Still Need Cloud / 10
"Use Wireless Connectivity to play with friends who have 3DS Systems!"
Bless the TriForce Heroes Demo
"Take your 3DS on the road and use StreetPass to meet Mii Characters and get special puzzle pieces!"
upload_2015-12-28_17-26-36.png
Gotta love how they used the Wii Version of Reggie's Mii and not the newer one used for Streetpass / Smash Trailer
"Find a great Screenshot or Drawing on Miiverse and give it a 'Yeah!'"
upload_2015-12-28_17-28-28.png

Rest in Pushy Can
"Watch a video with services like yadda yadda"
Why would you tell me to do that when I can watch Youtube on my Computer while playing an actual game at the same time on my 2DS tho
"Visit the online Theme Shop and make your 3DS Home Menu look pretty"
Best $3.12 I've ever spent, Spotlight: Luigi Theme get
"Use Amiibos"
If only I had $150 bucks I'd be willing to spend to get an Amiibo-Compatible System because the 2DS is really picky about InfaRed (Trust me, I tried)
"Find both New and Classic Games on the eShop so you always have something to play"
>Kirby Fighters Deluxe
>Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe
>3D Classics: Kirby's Adventure
>Kirby's Pinball Land
All I need is Kirby Triple Deluxe


I give it a New 5 / 10
Fantastic

It's snowing outside
But it's snowing in such a specific way that it's writing words in the snow
Including "TIM <3 <3 <3" and "R I P"
If it wasn't pitch-black outside I'd totally show you guys

Hey, here's a thing.

Make a new Marvel vs Capcom roster.

70 characters. 35 on each side. Go.
I'd just leave the UMVC3 roster unaltered and add in:

Capcom:

Vile
Captain Commando
Seth
Jin

Marvel:

Ultron
Ant Man
Black Panther
Thanos

I'm a man of simple desires.

Wife in Japanese is "tsuma."

I definitely agree with the fact it's not strange to have attraction to a fictional character. It's something that's been happening for generations.

Simple. Just take the UMvC3 roster but with


Marvel
  • Venom
  • Ant-Man
  • Loki
  • Ultron
  • Doc Ock
  • Cyclops
  • Ms Marvel
  • Thanos
  • The Punisher
  • Scarlet Witch

Capcom
  • :4megaman:
  • Juri
  • Necalli
  • Leon Kennedy
  • Nero
  • Captain Commando
  • Batsu
  • Dragon's Dogma Rep
  • (Wild Card) Chick from Remember Me
  • Demetri
  • (Wild Card) Monster Hunter Rep
The Wild card is for either characters to be over the other. I know about the comments about the Director of MH said he didn't want a character in Mahvel but things can change.

Same for Maximo, Bass.exe and a couple of others.

I actually thought about edgeworth. But I thought with Pheonix's wacky playstyle it be best to have him as is and rep his series, rather then have someone from it come in and probably end up doing the same.

Oh, and for a Nintendo guest character, we'd get Wonder Red. ( A Distant Demon A Distant Demon :smirk:)
Ridiculous. Wonder Red wouldn't be before Mario, Pikachu, Link and 100 other Nintendo characters. . .

MAYBE Nintendo vs capcom as a viewtiful joe joke but being a MvC guest is just dumb




I just suddenly realized how hilarious an interaction between Silver Samurai and Phoenix+Maya would be
Maya being mad that his costume and name is wrong (steel samurai) and phoenix getting beat up in her place.

ahh the possibilities.
When's Mahvel 4?

The fact that we were told this was the latest stream was the final Smash 4-related broadcast and that Bayonetta was the last DLC character doesn't matter anyway, because people still have the classic "SAKUREY IS A TROLL DONT BELIEVE WHAT HE SAYS, CUZ HE CAN CHANGE HIS MIND!!!111" handwave they can use. They don't even need to resort to bullcrap like "OMG THE SQUARES ON THE SITE ARE UNEVEN!" and "SAKURAI SAID BAYONETTA IS THE LAST NEW CHARACTER!"

It's completely unwinnable and never-ending.
The thing about the Smash community is there's too many arguments that go everywhere. Not to mention the everlasting immaturity called "salt". We all know Sakurai loves to troll with us and he done it multiple times. Smash has gotten to the point to where it's becoming toxic to the point of pointless arguments happen over characters fans cry for (Ridley, K Rool, etc), and why veterans need to come back. Not to mention we've all done our fair share of lasting out at some point (some of you maybe remember my f-bombs on Robin being revealed lmao) and it's now ridiculous. Would be nice if we all took a break from the series for awhile to let all the toxic out



That game is actually published by Nintendo, curiously enough.

Still, I'd actually like to see how Sakurai would tackle manga/anime franchises in an actual Smash Bros. game. How would the characters be designed and stand out from each other, how would the stages be designed and how would other elements such as items, Assist Trophies, music and trophies be handled.

Even if it happened, it would probably stay in Japan given how it would be a licensing nightmare to release it elsewhere.
I hope and swear to God that this never happens. It'll throw all the concept of video game only characters out of the window and this is why I can't take fan requests seriously. I have a feeling this was how Bayo got in the game


Well it is called "Smashboards"
And with Smashboards, we need Smash Champions.

What we need is the following...


SSB World Champion
SSB International Champion
SSB United States Champion
SSB Japan Champion
SSB European Champion
SSB Xtreme Champion
SSB Coin Champion
SSB Time Champion
SSB Lightheavyweight Champion
SSB Women's Champion
SSB World Tag Team Champions
SSB Lightheavyweight Tag Team Champions
SSB Women's Tag Team Champions
SSB Mixed Tag Team Champions


Boom

So, Nintendo maybe gearing up to be making a huge Legend of Zelda announcement soon.
(http://gamerpros.co/rumor-nintendo-supposedly-preparing-huge-legend-zelda-announcement/)

This stems from a leaked video some people are claiming to have of the said Zelda Announcement, even though they didn't say what it outright says. Mostly due to them saying it's incomplete.

This is has also prompted speculation that a Nintendo Direct might be in the works for January 2016 as it mentions a "big event".

EDIT: The website also says to have the video in their possession.

There's PLENTY of things it could be:

- Twilight Princess HD
- New Tri Force Heroes content
- Hyrule Warriors Legends
- Zelda Wii U
- The series' 30th anniversary
- The next Tingle installment (:troll:)

Who knows?

MVC4 better add Franziska. Or Edgeworth. Or Gumshoe. Or an Ace Attorney rep in general.

Also Coulson and Samuel Jackson Nick Fury. And don't forget Megaman.

I'm sure there's more I can't remember right now but I just got introduced to Tatsu the talking potato

It's just nerd culture in the west adapted it for the use you described.

And in general I see no problem in it either, since it's ultimately harmless at a baseline level. And really, I don't see why people STILL find the concept of "crushing on/being sexually attracted to a fictional character" strange considering this was one of the defining works that made the animation industry what it is today:


People too often forget about that.
Most don't even take it that seriously too.

The terms waifu/husbando itself are used very liberally in most contexts (often times just a female/male character that you like) yet I'm consistently surprised at how many still take it seriously and offense when someone claims "X is my waifu/husbando". It seems people take words on a screen far more literally then I originally thought.

Unhealthy, obsessive levels of attraction that could lead to a disorder in one's every day functional life are rare, and they aren't exclusive to just fictional characters but just about anything in life, really.

I make no apologies of occasionally light-heartedly poking jabs/making fun of those with suspected "unnatural" attraction to fictional characters and waifus/husbandos but in actuality it's not something I concern over nor do I find offensive. Most of the time in most contexts, it just means you like a certain character, not a literal fictional girlfriend/wife. It's not something to take seriously, even those who constantly "claim" to have waifus/husbandos.
