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

[Chrono.]

We'd sooner see a new Advance Wars over a new STEAM.

And that'd be just perfect in my book

 

[Kenith]

I need to try Okami but me and Zelda like games don't go together as much but I would love to try to see if it changes me outlook


I mean Persona 4 changed my opinion on SMT series as a whole

Oh no, if you're not a fan of Zelda or don't have a lot of patience, you will hate Okami.
It's like a billion hours long.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

How is Silvia annoying?

'eww girls' is my guess
I miss Viewtiful Joe. Loved the second game. Haven't played the rest

 

[Pazzo.]

Despite his grumpiness, I do like Kamiya as a director.

He made Okami AND voiced Godot in Japan. What's not to like?

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Do you think Wonderful 101 and/or Codename STEAM could get sequels one day?

Since Nintendo has a good relationship with Platinum, I could see them possibly giving Wonderful 101 another chance, but I think we'll see a Bayonetta 3 before we see a Wonderful 102.

Codename STEAM I don't see getting a sequel.

 

[Burruni]

Honestly.
His grumpiness is part of why I love Kamiya.
See, there's a certain amount of "arrogance," that's just humorous and enjoyable.
It's what makes characters like Waluigi, Wesker, Laharl, and Kamina so friggin' lovable.

Go too far and you become Phil Fish.

Kamiya's an arrogant *******, Fish is an asshole. Big difference

 

[Burruni]

Kamiya's an arrogant *******, Fish is an *******. Big difference

Kamiya: My games may be niche; but I am a god of that niche and wouldn't change that if it meant compromising how I want my games to live.
Phil Fish: I AM THE GAMING MESSIAH

 

[Pazzo.]

So basically, his logic is "some fans do it so the entire game is hentai-themed".....?

His logic:

Phil Fish:*steals money* I AM THE GAMING MESSIAH

feex

 

[Burruni]

His logic:

This reminds me.
Any time you see a Firing Squad in a full circle around a target.
It's absolutely dumb because that creates risk for people to shoot eachother.

Spoiler

Not that the scene coordinators of The Force Awakens knew for it's first major scene

 

[Solfiner]

AND voiced Godot in Japan. What's not to like?

Holy **** that's amazing

 

[Fenriraga]

Kamiya is certainly a piece of work... He can be absolutely hilarious. Both for the right and wrong reasons.

Furthering my comparison to Waluigi, Wesker, and Kamina.

 

[ChikoLad]

Do you think Wonderful 101 and/or Codename STEAM could get sequels one day?

I think they could both see at least one more.

Fire Emblem got tons of sequels despite never doing particularly well until Awakening.

Then again I haven't finished STEAM yet so I don't even know if the ending is open ended enough for a sequel, but even if it isn't, I still want a spiritual successor with the same gameplay concept. Even if it loses the unique setting and atmosphere of the game. Both series' deserve another chance, and I'd love to see both Wonder Red and Henry Fleming in the next Smash.

hey remember that reddit leak @AreJay25 posted

Clearly a type of troll poster that our dear @Pushy Pushy Dustino adores seeing, especially with such a reasonable topic.

It's almost like this was reasonably argued against just recently.

It's not like Nintendo announced Brawl before asking Sakurai to work on it.
It's not like what Sakurai said, which we translated as "fanservice" could also be translated as it just being a service to the fans.
It's not like every leak that's gone to say "on X date Y character is going to be announced" has been proven wrong; even Gematsu with its amazing record up to "Monado Monday."

 

[Rosalinatehplumber]

Knowing that Wolf was probably meant for the base game and not DLC makes me think that he could very well be in the next smash bros game.

 

[Burruni]

Waiting for Project B.
Where Wolf and Icies are the new .
And we actually see finished Knuckles, Isaac, and Lyn.

 

[Substitution]

So to catch up on some of my games I decided to finally finish a SM64DS file I had months ago. Which is odd since I was like at the final half. And then:

I kinda did things.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

tbh I don't mind Wolf being gone because of what I got to compensate. The Umbra Witch is worth losing an old main

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Wolf isn't going to get in. No other characters are either.

I'm not happy about Wolf's absence myself, but people need to face the facts and accept it at this point.

 

[Pazzo.]

It's a shame Wolf got left out.

I certainly he and Ice Climbers make a triumphant return.. Snake is now my "Corrin Pick" unfortunately.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Can someone explain why Medabots Girls Mission exists? Curious if it'll get a western release

 

[Burruni]

Y'know.
Let's really look at the cuts that we've gone through.
Two of the least liked clones period. One that was a joke and the second that was little more than a model edit.
One of the three popular clones.
One of the highest requested newcomers.

A very unique newcomer who got in as part of a personal favor.
A beloved "gimmick" character who just couldn't exist because hardware.
: The lesser two thirds of a very cherished addition that was bundled in a fairly sloppy mechanic.
: The most slapped together last minute clone that still manages to be one of the most unique clones.

Edit:

Japan.

Double Edit: Unlikely for a western release because we only got like 2 of the 7 (?) Medabots games.

 

[Dravidian]

It's not really that hard to get them off at high percents since she has a ton of gimping options and is fast enough to chase launched opponents.

She stands out at a novice level because while she has some complexity to her combos and what not, there is barely any penalty for screwing up because of her frame data.

There aren't that many characters that shiek gimps hard enough to say she can reliably get a stock from gimps. Compare shieks gimps to her KO's in high level play.

And the fact that Shiek has to go in so much and is a light character means that people that fight her don't need that many chances to ko her because when they hit her it's gonna hurt; the few chances they get are enough. It's the basic penalty for her archetype.

 

[NintenZ]

I always thought that Sakurai, Kamiya and Kojima should all go out together, they're all perfect friends.

I misread that as "old man".

It made me wonder how old Wolf really is, considering he and James McCloud had some history as rivals while Fox was a just a pup, IIRC.

There's actually 2 Medabots games coming soon. Girls Mission has an all girls human cast and uses the older Medabots designs.

The other is Medabots 9 which is a reboot kinda.

Localization won't happen, XSEED said no due to lack of interest.

Wolf is 38 as of Command.
And that's like 234 in dog years!

Edit: Fox is 29.
James WOULD BE 54.

Command ain't canon, though.

It seems odd to make a whole game to go 'HEY GAIZ GRILLZ KEN USE ROBITS 2!'

Shame honestly, I'd probably buy Medabots had I known it these days

"GUYZ, SMASH IS TOTALLY STEALING OTHER FIGHTING GAME SEQUELZ!!!"

vs. Playstation AllStars Battle Royale 2
vs. Marvel vs. Capcom 3

vs. Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax 2

vs. Nintendo vs. Capcom

 

[Burruni]

Command ain't canon, though.

Yeah.
It's a matter of what year a game takes place in because Star Fox uses a made up version of BC and AD.
If Star Fox 64 takes place at 2 BLW...
Wolf is 25 in it. Fox is 16. And James is/would be 41.

vs. vs. Tekken x Street Fighter/Street Fighter x Tekken II

 

[Frostwraith]

With DLC over, it stands as a fact that the amount of third-party guests has tripled in this iteration of Smash, going from 2 to 6.

Just like the amount of Fire Emblem characters.

 

[Luigi The President]

vs. vs. Tekken x Street Fighter/Street Fighter x Tekken II

I hope there's a day where Mario and even Cloud could join that match-up.

Bayonetta too maybe but that's wishful thinking; they'll never be in a fighting game, together at least.

(it's too hard to tell this is a joke i should clarify)

 

[Burruni]

Just like Kid Icarus characters.

Just like the fact that Pokemon, Zelda, Kirby, DK, and Metroid stayed the same.

I can't tell if this is supporting Fire Emblem's representation or not and I'm conflicted

 

[NintenZ]

Never forget...

I'm... I'm so sorry... I'll always remember you...
