"Zelda WiiU infuriates the fanbase."
Please.
That's as much of a given as saying the next Sonic game is going to be devi--

":4sonic:... Splits fanbase."
Exactly.
I had to get SOMETHING right about my predictions. . . I took the easy way out

well other than :4pit:'s part. I know im right about that one too

Here's a thing to do.

Every series in Smash.... Predict what will happen to them in 2016.

Go.
:4mario:: Paper Jam does decent, either a 2D or 3D game is revealed for the NX's launch
:4link:: Zelda Wii U
:4pikachu:: Go, Pokémon Z
:4kirby:: A new, traditional Kirby game for the Wii U
:4yoshi:: Nothing
:4dk:: Maybe a new DKC
:4samus:: Federation Force does okay, but is considered a disappointment. A new game is revealed for the NX
:4fox:: Zero does well.
:4ness:: Mother 3 may (and that's a huge may) see an official translation
:4falcon:: Nothing
:4marth:: Fates does well, #FE does not.
:4olimar:: Pikmin 4 either comes out for the Wii U or NX, maybe both
:4pit:: Nothing, sadly
:4sonic:: Fire and Ice either comes out or gets canceled, the big 25th anniversary game comes out and will hopefully be good, movie news and season 2 of Boom will start
:4villager:: Animal Crossing either comes out for Wii U, or skips it and goes to the NX
:4wiifit:: A new Wii Fit (or rather NX Fit) is announced
:4littlemac:: Nothing
:4shulk:: Xenoblade Chronicles X DLC?
:4megaman:: More movie news, maybe a new game.
:4ryu:: Street Fighter 5
:4pacman:: Mobile phone games, more Ghostly Adventures
:4cloud:: FF7 remake comes to the NX
:4bayonetta:: Third game announced, Nintendo exclusive

Xenoblade X actually did have DLC.
The international versions got it for free.

Looking at the DLC schedule, I'm going to throw my hat into the ring with an educated guess.

All character DLC has happened on the 14-15th of a month.

Mewtwo: April 15th(For the early release at least)
Lucas, Roy, Ryu: June 14th
Cloud: December 15th

I'm going to say since it's a multi-release, Corrin and Bayonetta are coming February 14th.

I'm going to be in the minority in this but I'd like a new kid Icarus game that's metroidvania style. Maybe with the ability to travel between heaven, hell and earth as the different "zones". With play elements like the old school games.

As opposed to an uprising sequel...

If they keep the banter and quality writing of Uprising they can make a baseball simulator for all I care.

As long as it has Uprising's dialogue, I don't care what kind of game it is.

Here's a thing to do.

Every series in Smash.... Predict what will happen to them in 2016.

Go.
:4bayonetta:: We could hear of an announcement of Bayonetta 3, either on a Nintendo system, or going back to multiplatform, which is quite unlikely after Nintendo got Bayonetta 2 funded and got her in Smash Bros.
:4mario:: More Mario games, hopefully an announcement of a big 3D Mario Game akin to Galaxy.
:4dk:: I can see us getting an announcement of a new Donkey Kong game - and the game to create the Retro Trilogy, and how? K. Rool's Revenge. It's probably going to be a platformer, or it could be like DK64. Or, given that its the year of the monkey... Nintendo expands the DK series with even more games. More Donkey Kong than there ever should be until the expansion is complete.
:4ryu:: I'll be playing as Rashid and F.A.N.G as my initial mains in SFV.
:4pikachu:: A new Pokémon game that actually gives canon importance for Zygarde - AKA Pokémon Z. And I finally beat Pokémon Y and start dedicating time to Omega Sapphire.
:4marth:: FE: Fates and Corrin are released.
:4fox:: Star Fox Zero is released, coated in Platinum.
:4littlemac:: What I want: A new Punch-Out!! where you can play as the other characters, each with their own skills, weaknesses and Star Powers.
:4samus:: We find out what ever happened to Metroid Federation Force, and get a formal announcement of Metroid Prime 4.
:4cloud:: More FFVII Remake, and potentially the first episode's release late in the year, Final Fantasy Explorers, and maybe Final Fantasy XV. It's been over 3000 years...
:4shulk:: Xenoblade continues to be successful for Nintendo.
:4kirby:: Kirby sees a new game that's either a spin off, or a new platformer game.
:4wario:: What I want - A new WarioWare and a new Wario Land.
:4olimar:: Pikmin 4's formal reveal.
:4wiifit:: Me playing Wii Fit again to lose some weight and sweat.
:4link:: The new Legend of Zelda on Wii U is released at the end of the year, Twilight Princess HD.
:4megaman:: Can't say
:4falcon:: We miss you, Captain...
:4gaw:: Game & Watch is no longer an unlockable character in the next Smash Bros game. There's no reason to cut, or keep him a secret.
:4ness:: We might see a collection game of 1,2 and 3... in Japan only, until fan demand brings it to the West.
:4pit:: Tries not to get killed by Bayonetta.
:4pacman:: Can't say.
:4sonic:: 25th anniversary Sonic the Hedgehog game.
:4rob:: R.O.B's Famicom amiibo is released.
:4duckhunt:: Maybe a Banjo-Kazooie style game, or maybe an NES revival game like Captain Rainbow, but aimed at old NES characters like Takamaru, Ice Climbers...
I think that's a good prediction for these franchises.

I played Uprising again recently and got so bored so quickly.

It'd make a better cartoon than video game. Script is genius, gameplay is poor.

Bought myself an external HDD and a manga volume of Fullmetal Alchemist from money I got from Christmas. =D

My manga collection grows little by little. I currently have:
- Fullmetal Alchemist Vol. 2
- Blue Exorcist Vol. 1
- The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

I also found a Ganondorf amiibo. But I ended not getting it.

I'll try that series prediction thingy:

:4mario:: New spin-off (Strikers maybe?) for Wii U. A new 2D Mario (whether it be NSMB or a new thing entirely) title is announced to launch with the NX. And of course, Rio Olympics on Wii U and 3DS. Super Mario Maker continues to get some support for at least a little into the year. More Super Mario Amiibos (I personally predict Wave 2 will be Rosalina, DK, Wario, Daisy, Waluigi, and Toadette, as that line-up serves as providing direct parallels to Wave 1). More Jazwares figures, with characters like Rosalina, Daisy, Toadette, etc. Possible news on the Super Mario animated movie. Some kind of mobile game. I don't believe we will hear of any new 3D Mario but if we do, it's absolutely going to be Galaxy 3 (which will be released in 2017).
:4link:: Hyrule Warriors Legends releases, possible ongoing support with DLC or some kind of Amiibo support. Zelda Wii U is shown off in great detail and potentially launches at the end of the year, and potentially is announced for the NX too. Also since Wolf Link officially starts the "Legend of Zelda" Amiibo series, expect more Zelda Amiibos to be announced at some point. And something made by Jazwares. Possible news on a Zelda movie/TV show. Symphony of the Goddess concert returns, has a preview of Zelda Wii U music.
:4pikachu:: More info on Pokémon GO! (IIRC I don't think it's releasing in 2016), Pokémon Z, probably a new movie and more F2P spin-off stuff. Possible news on the Sony Pictures movie.
:4kirby:: New Kirby game for Wii U, either traditional, or a fully 3D game that revolutionises the series.
:4yoshi:: Possible update/DLC for Woolly World (mostly just thinking of them supporting more Amiibos). And they'll find some way to release another new Yoshi Amiibo. :V
:4wario:: Possible WarioWare handheld or NX entry. Or even mobile (Wario is perfect for that). New Wario Amiibo as part of the Super Mario line.
:4dk:: Either Retro's working on a Tropical Freeze sequel, or there will be some sort of handheld thing. Also a DK Amiibo as part of the Super Mario line, as I mentioned earlier.
:4samus:: Federation Force releases and has a Samus cameo as well as some kind of Samus/ZSS Amiibo support. Game does alright but is largely forgotten. Possible NX Metroid title announced.
:4fox:: Star Fox: Zero launches, does well enough but isn't the big thing people hoped for. At least one new Amiibo to tie in with the game. More Star Fox Jazwares merchandise.
:4ness:: Mother 3 on VC.
:4falcon:: It's possible he might actually get something on NX. Let's just hope the NX has some sort of control gimmick that satisfies Miyamoto. :V
:4marth:: Fates is a big success on the 3DS, supports Roy and Corrin Amiibos eventually. SMT x FE does badly though doesn't effect the series too much since it barely has anything to do with FE. And since Nintendo is experimenting with new avenues, I think if any series is going to get an anime, it's Fire Emblem. And maybe even a mobile title too. I could also see them bringing the trading card game overseas. Basically if Fates does at least as well as Awakening, Nintendo are going to do everything they can to make it a flagship franchise that will see releases and merchandising fairly frequently.
:4olimar:: Pikmin 4 on Wii U and/or NX.
:4wiifit:: New title for the NX and something on mobile.
:4villager:: Animal Crossing Wii U. This time it's not a party game. Makes heavy use of the AC Amiibo line and is a flagship title for Amiibo.
:4littlemac:: I think he could actually get a Wii U title. Something to fill up space until NX comes, it would really satisfy the Western market at least.
:4pit:: Maybe a Wii U port of Uprising. Not something over the top, I'm talking along the lines of the jump between Rodea 3DS and Wii U. Just touching things up slightly and changing controls to suit the game. And it has Amiibo support somehow.
:4shulk:: Xenoblade Chronicles X DLC, and I think Shulk will make an appearance in SOMETHING. Like he'll guest star in one game or another. And of course Project X Zone 2 has Fiora in it.
:4gaw:: Eeeeeh I honestly don't know. Some Game & Watch related cameo in something but that's all I got. Or some kind of collection on 3DS. Or something mobile.
:4rob:: R.O.B Famicom Amiibo (that I already have :V), and R.O.B makes a cameo in something.
:4duckhunt:: Maybe this will be "Sakurai's New Uprising" and we will hear an announcement of it at least. More realistically, I could see Duck Hunt Mobile being a thing. It would translate over real easily.
:4sonic:: One or two new console/handheld games for the 25th anniversary, and I believe one will be focused on Classic Sonic entirely. Fire & Ice comes out and does moderately well. Rio Olympics too. And Sonic Runners sees continued support along with the Sonic Dash games. Potentially a new All-Stars Racing. Sonic Boom Season 2 will start. All sorts of merchandising and events like concerts and stuff. I also think there will be a "Mario & Sonic" Mystery Mushroom costume in Super Mario Maker, akin to the Paper Jam one. At least one PC port of a past Sonic game will happen, most likely Colours (and the modding community will go nuts). And I think we will hear about a Sonic Amiibo line. There's probably more I could mention but overall, out of all of the franchises represented on the Smash roster, Sonic is definitely the one who has the biggest year ahead of him, without a doubt, especially considering his track record with Anniversary years. The 20th was huge.
:4megaman:: Mega Man Legacy Collection 3DS and the Gold Mega Man Amiibo. More news on the new cartoon. MAYBE a new game if we are lucky.
:4pacman:: Mostly merchandising. Maybe a new mobile title. And some sort of movie cameo.
:4ryu:: SFV releases and is a big hit. Akuma in Tekken 7. And we maybe here something about Tekken X Street Fighter.
:4cloud:: More FFVII remake news, maybe even a demo set in the opening. Cloud appears in more FF spin-off stuff. Cloud and other FF characters like Lightning confirmed for Kingdom Hearts 3.
:4bayonetta:: Either a new game announcement or more DLC for Bayonetta 2. Maybe appears in something SEGA related.
:4mii:: Miitomo, and a new Mii focused game on NX. Possibly another Tomadachi Life too.

You'd be surprised how better the game gets in Light vs Dark mode (imo anyway).

I found the single player fine enough but even the dialogue couldn't make me go back to it lol

I kinda have an urge to play a Smash knock-off right now.

Can't decide between Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion XL or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Smash-Up though.

Since we ARE in a Sonic kind of day for the thread...
I feel a need to show one reason why I want an HD remastering of SA 1 & 2.

We actually do have HD remasters, what your talking about is a remake.
With that said, yes, I would LOVE an Adventure 1 and 2 remake.

FE1/11: Like Zelda 1 or Pokemon Gen 1, it was a good starting point for the series but some truly arcaic things make actually doing things fully absurd, the engine doesn't work how it means to, and there are some semi-glaring issues that they resolve in later games.
FE2: This is technically a Fire Emblem game.
FE3/12: Better contuination FE1 in terms of function, map design, and objective variance. BUT PREPARE FOR OVER A DOZEN CAVALIER UNITS BECAUSE IT'S FE3.
FE4: BIGGER-THAN-RIDLEY MAPS, A SEMI-COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP MECHANIC, but one of the best once you get past that.
FE5: Worse continuation FE4.
FE6: It's... basically FE1 again. A bit more functional. But with promotions working as they are, Roy really struggles in the last few chapters before his L-A-T-E promotion.
FE7: A fair bit tutorial heavy but the one of the easiest to get into. Also includes Dunkmaster Hector.
FE8: This is technically more of a Fire Emblem game than FE2.
FE9: A little clunky to get into, a bit too flucuating of a difficulty curve, but a good game if you can sit down to get into it.
FE10: Don't play this if you can't import a FE9 save. It's like playing Sonic & Knuckles instead of Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
FE13: As hard as you want it to be. Arguably easiest of the series if you go on the simplest difficulty setting because you can grind as much as you want; and quite easily at that.
FE14: GET OVER HERE TO THE STATES, DAMMIT.
FE1: To be honest, the only issue I had with it was items. Beyond that though, I think it's a fun title to pick up now and again. It's aged mechanically, but everything that's fun is still fun. Gen 1 Pokemon is the best comparison, minus all the glitches.

FE2: More of an FE title than people give it credit for. Fixed FE1's issues with items, improved the graphics, music, and story. FE but you can only hold one item that's usually OP.

FE3: More or less FE1 2.0. Aside from changing items back it doesn't do too much new. Has more charm than FE11/12 IMO ironically.

FE4: Pretty much.

FE5: Pretty much. If you want FE to be any more frustrating.

FE6: More or less FE3 with better hardware and more story.

FE7: Pretty much. The 2nd hardest of the Western releases. Never got the love for Hector.

FE8: Pretty much. Development was probably rushed. Not a bad game, just doesn't have as much charm as FE7. Maybe easier to get into.

FE9: Best game in the series IMO, objectively the most balanced. Only flaw would be meh late gen graphics and dat $100 price tag.

FE10: Mixed bag IMO. Great story, better graphics, but kills support conversations, Micaiah chapters are horribly unbalanced. Pretty sure NA's Normal is JP's Hard. Like FE3, definitely best as an & Knuckles title.

FE11: FE1 with better graphics. Online & Class Changes sadly can't overcome how barebones it is overall.

FE12: FE11 if it was a proper remake. Avatar is horribly unbalanced, but you have more control over them storywise.

FE13: FE12 with the worst story in the series, no online, and a rebalanced Avatar who's their own character now. Probably the easiest game in the series. Not the best entry point, but is probably better of one than FE2/4/5/10.

FE14: N/A. Hopefully an improvement over FE13.

Been a week or so since I checked this thread out.

Everyone here see this C & D in the making.

So I downloaded this
And I did some things
upload_2016-1-2_20-45-57.png

And now I have all 3 Kirby Series Amiibo Costumes (With Sound and the works) and a Kirby's Adventure theme.

I don't even know what terms to even use at times.
I want a version of the game with updated graphics, maybe some better side content, Chao Gardens & Racings that have some online capability, and that raw glitchiness fixed.

And the Knuckles - Rouge Radar fixed for SA2.

If you have a Wii U, play Kung Fu Panda: Showdown of Legendary Legends.

If not, play Digimon Rumble Arena 2.
Or else play TMNT: Smash-Up. PTE copies the formula more closely, but it's arguably less playable than Smash-Up.

Heeey.

I beat a play through of Stella Glow so I should be on here more now. As long as I don't play Super Mystery Dungeon soon. But after beating both X and Stella Glow back to back. I need a break from pushing through these rpgs.

Anyway. I'll be back with a Stella Glow avi and review of it soon.

Don't forget a refined physics engine with better level design to accommodate it.
