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

[Chandeelure]

And I feel bad for Swamp asking for romantic advice to us, didn't just yesterday we all admit we were a bunch of nerd?

That's exactly what I think XD

C'mon Swamp, you can do whatever you want.

You probably know more about dates than the people on this forums.

 

[Burruni]

Swamp.
The plan is simple.
1)

2) Have a strong pose game

 

[Deleted member]

On the topic of Awakening, I lrefer to thinl of the SpotPass Chapters as non-canon
But at the same time, there is no reason to get angry about free extra maps that allow you to play as the game's main NPCs

Who says nerds can't be quite the players~. Like me, I'm a gigantic nerd, and yet...

When you send this to your SO to laugh at and they just respond with
"Damn right you are."
O-Oh.

[NintenZ]

I'm a nerd,

Yeah, I play a lot of games, watch a lot of anime, and read a lot of manga, and own a lot of video game/manga/anime merchandise, so yeah, I'm a nerd. And I also go on a lot of video game/manga/anime websites/fourms. (And I spend most of my time on the computer) So... Yeah... (But my eyesight is actually pretty good)

 

[wedl!!]

Hm...

So there's a friend.

She's a girl.

We get along and I'll admit she's kind of cute....

I'm not super into her but I suppose things could change.

Should I ask her to hang out?

to quote Smash Mouth, the masters of life advice; "You never know if you don't go/you never shine if you don't glow"

You could ask her this,

"Hey, I like you so maybe you'd like to come over or something?"

I mean it worked for me... But I dunno, it's probably not going to help is it? Sorry, just an idea...

 

[Fenriraga]

GUYS GUESS WHAT.

KINGDOM HEARTS 3 NEWS WILL SHOW UP IN 2016. Amazing right who would have guessed?! And that's not all! The game has hit an important stage of development only just recently!!!

...This game is never ****ing coming out.

It's coming in Holiday 2017, calling it.

They've been going for yearly releases with the franchise and 2.8 is supposed to fill us for this year.

Unchained Chi was supposed to be last year but for some reason they haven't released it internationally yet.

Swamp be all

No but really dude, just don't over think it! That's the worst thing you could possibly do when being friends with a girl. She's just a regular human being like any one of us, so if you have common ground, cool, hang out more. Nothing worth thinking about beyond that until you both get to know each other and stuff.

Oh cool so only 2 more years and the game was announced in 2013.

Neeeever coming out.

Aren't people theorizing that, like, the calendar in the trailer when Xehanort and Eraqus are playing chess is supposed to be Nomura being an abstract SOB and teasing a planned release date?

Edit:


Japan & United States Calendar

December 2016 - unlikely - however if they time it right they can triple their sales by releasing in december
March 2018 - Possibly - March is a good time to release games as many developers do

August 2019 - D23 happens around this time and disney products are really hyped so its not completely unlikely


Germany & Greece Calendar - Tangled is based on german tale of Rapunzel. Hercules is based on greek tale of Herakels.

January 2016 - Christmas just ended and Gamers are possibly not interested in new IP's

July - 2016 - Again also unlikely this is known as a dead period in gaming. However this means no competition

December 2017 - Same as above

It's obviously been delayed for the NX
I would love that to be true so I could play it.

Still won't be interesting until the Marvel and Star Wars worlds are shown off

Big Hero 6 was already confirmed though

 

[PK_Wonder]

I think KHIII for NX is a super reasonable idea.

-KH has history on Nintendo, and this entry is aiming to hit the largest audience it can since it's coming to Xbone of all things.
-The timing is right. KH III is almost guaranteed to be 2017, so even if the NX comes out later than most of us speculate, it is definitely not coming out after KH.
-Square Enix has already suggested support for the NX with some of their big titles.


I mean even if it doesn't, I still have a PS4, so I'm covered, but I'll likely go with the NX as my platform of choice for third party multiplats when given the opportunity.

 

[Burruni]

So.

Day 7:

Spoiler

It's no secret that Star Fox is a series that has struggled to varying levels since the N64 to find how to hit gameplay and story right to really hit large again. The last two titles, Command and 64 3DS, combined having sales that go shortly past a million units combined is certainly something that raises concern for either how niche it has become or how questionable quality has been. The fact that this series is one of few to lower in number of characters (the only series to decrease to a number greater than 0) in this transition is one that only further raises some concern. Star Fox Zero has a lot of hope behind it and it certainly looks like a hefty amount of work behind it. Time will tell how well it truly hits off and how the series is handled for years to come. As we stand... the fighter choices are thin.

: High-demand veteran. Honestly, I very much see him and Ice Climbers being the "Roy and Mewtwo of Brawl," where they will certainly return to Smash 5 because of their high demand and how most of the community just stands as "they shouldn't have had to be cut." But we don't live in a perfect world. There's little more to say... his return is far more likely than any individual newcomer for the series and honestly one of the biggest picks for the next installment period.

Krystal: I'm going to admit that I'm biased against her, but I just don't see her having a great chance outside of the prompt "Star Fox needs a newcomer, who should it be?" As she stands, she hasn't been in a title since 2006. She, as far as we know, doesn't have a role in Star Fox Zero as it appears to be taking place pre-Adventures and Peppy is in an Arwing again. She has decent-to-good support, but not great. And the biggest thing that people point to for her to have a unique moveset, being her staff that doubles as a twinblade when it comes to combat, is from Adventures... the single most heated game of the series and dates all the way back to 2002. With little debate, the most likely Star Fox newcomer... for what it is worth. She just has every issue that K. Rool is tackled with... but with none of the positives to the levels that the kroc holds.

Slippy: A choice.. most commonly said in jest. The fact that he is the #2 newcomer for the series points to some of the problems with expansion. Just about every character plays identical in the series because they pilot the same vehicles and use the same weaponry. A slim, slim chance but the only other one that's brought up near enough to bring up.

At this point, Star Fox hasn't done anything between Brawl and Smash 4 to merit much expansion (just the 3DS version of 64) and the thought of discussing anything besides Wolf entirely hinges on the results from Zero and if it even sees a second game in the time span before the roster is chosen.

 

[Wario Bros.]

So the Wii U has officially reached 3 million units sold in Japan.

While it's a great milestone, it's still sad said console is Nintendo's weakest seller.

 

[PK_Wonder]

NX Wishlist:

General:
Lots and lots of major third party support. Grand Theft Auto. Kingdom Hearts. Final Fantasy. The Elder Scrolls. Fallout. RDR 2. TimeSplitters 4. RE7. No Man's Sky. All of it.

Nintendo World (Nintendo Land sequel that's bigger and bolder, uses amiibos)
Eternal Darkness 2 (w/ HD rerelease of 1st game)
2-5 new IPs of various genres

A proper Paper Mario 5 in the vein of TTYD.
Super Mario Sunshine HD
Super Mario Galaxy 3 or equivalent (any 3D collectathon that is more like this and less 3D World)

Launch with a port of the Wii U game
and then maybe have another new title be the console's swan song 6 years later

Pokemon Snap 2
You know what. A full RPG in the vein of the handheld titles.

Donkey Kong World (a DK64 spiritual successor in the vein of 3D Mario titles)
Metroid Prime 4, GOTY

Yes.

Do it, but alternate between racing segments and on-foot bounty hunting segments. Kinda like Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Kid Icarus: Uprising sequel

The culmination of all things Animal Crossing. The definitive experience. Everything we know and love from before, plus more.
The next wonderful gem from Monolith Soft. I trust them to be unique and fresh and fascinating.
Sonic Adventure 3
Mother 3 VC release.
and Mother 4.... in full 3DHD. Like go all-out next gen, FFXV style.

This is like the tallest of tall orders from Nintendo and it will never happen.
And I want it so bad. ;_;

 

[Champ Gold]

Big Hero 6 was already confirmed though

That wasn't nice Oni. That really wasn't nice

 

[Chrono.]

If Star Wars doesn't happen in KH can Darth Vader be at least the Superboss? Please?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Who needs Star Wars when they can add ESPN (which Disney owns)?

 

[Burruni]

If Star Wars doesn't happen in KH can Darth Vader be at least the Superboss? Please?

Nope.
Because there's someone more fit to be the hidden boss for KH3.
A warrior who has traveled across the void to appear in various realms across eras of grand history.
Spending his life to gather an arsenal of legendary weapons.
I dare say.
Enough Expository Banter!
It's time to fight like men!
And ladies!
And ladies who dress like men!
FOR GILGAMESH!
IT'S MORPHING TIME!

 

[Frostwraith]

So, I've noticed that Corrin's design in Smash has a little change similar to other FE characters: the cape has a symbol added to it, whereas in FE it's plain in color.

This is similar to how Lucina has the Mark of Naga in her cape, unlike Awakening. Likewise, Marth, Ike and Roy have emblems added to them whereas in the original games and respective art, the capes are plain colored.

As for both Bayonetta and female Corrin, they both have had slight changes to their designs to expose less skin, mainly in the legs. Likely done to prevent changes to the age rating.

Both can happen.

KH games usually have more than one superboss.

Bayonetta's actual design is unchanged, they just made it darker.
Corrin did get redesigned though and thank god for that.

I'm still surprised they still haven't used the greatest disney IP out there.

Spoiler

 

[Burruni]

I mean...
Yes.
But also I have been waiting for Gilgamesh since Kingdom Hearts 1.
Because he fits too damn well.

Edit: CoM didn't have one; 1 & 2 just used Sepiroth. BBS used Mysterious Figure. Coded re-used the Roxas fight. And then DDD actually had a Disney superboss in Julius.

Double Edit: And... Days just used a reskin of a Wyvern heartless

1 had Kurt Zisa, Phantom, Xemnas and some others aside from Sephiroth, 2 had Lingering Will, BBS had Vanitas Senitment, No Heart, Eraqus' Armor and Monstro.

 

[ChikoLad]

So exposing a bit of leg in Smash is not OK but exposing full legs in Mario & Sonic is fine?

Nintendo's censorship patterns continue to confuse the hell out of me.

KH has been on Nintendo platforms before, it be kinda weird to drop DDD on 3DS and then suddenly not have KH3 on non-Nintendo platforms. It would be a stab in the back honestly.

 

[Burruni]

1 had Kurt Zisa, Phantom, Xemnas and some others aside from Sephiroth, 2 had Lingering Will, BBS had Vanitas Senitment, No Heart, Eraqus' Armor and Monstro.

Kurt Zisa and Phantom weren't in the original version, got put in for International and Beyond.
Xemnas wasn't put in until Final Mix.

Lingering Will was Final Mix; alongside all the Data fights

Armor of the Master, Monstro, and No Heart are all Final Mix bosses.

KH1... had the Ice Titan. Which was kinda a joke. And Venitas's Lingering Sentiment was in... but also not THE Superboss, but a step to it.

KH has been on Nintendo platforms before, it be kinda weird to drop DDD on 3DS and then suddenly not have KH3 on non-Nintendo platforms. It would be a stab in the back honestly.

Like having CoM on GBA but not KH2.
Like having Days and RE:Coded but not BBS.
Like not getting any of the 1.5/2.5/2.8 games.
Like how they have anounced it for Xbone and PS4 but nothing for Nintendo.

 

[Chrono.]

KH has been on Nintendo platforms before, it be kinda weird to drop DDD on 3DS and then suddenly not have KH3 on non-Nintendo platforms. It would be a stab in the back honestly.

No it wouldn't.

It isn't Square's fault Nintendo have a weaker hardware to work with.

Plus SE has been handling KH very oddly anyway (Xbone gets KH3, but none of the HD remixes).

Kurt Zisa and Phantom weren't in the original version, got put in for International and Beyond.
Xemnas wasn't put in until Final Mix.

Lingering Will was Final Mix; alongside all the Data fights

Yeah

but

[Frostwraith]

Also, I found a subbed version of the Corrin trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94FGBAkg0pk

Dialogue doesn't seem too changed. (Which means, yeah, the "big brother is now big sister" is still a thing.)

At least the "wow! even better!" part was just in the English version.

 

[Frostwraith]

At least the "wow! even better!" part was just in the English version.

Yeah, but she does say something along those lines in Japanese anyway, so I guess the Japanese dub still has its share of cheesiness.

Honestly, I think the trailer falls more on the comedic side, playing with Corrin's decision to join Smash out of nowhere.

Corrin is my new role model.
He ignores important life decisions to play Smash Bros.

 

[ChikoLad]

I honestly don't think there is any reason to worry about the amount of super bosses in KHIII or use past games as a reference. I mean, it's on the PS4 and Xbox One (potentially NX). That means DLC is possible.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 DLC fights.

Gilgamesh confirmed.
