So, anyone know what type of Figure/Statue this unfinished Link is? Is it a PVC figure, like the Cordelia one next to it, or.. what? D: I keep a good track on Nintendo statues nowdays, but I have yet to see what this figure really is.

Man, it cracks me up that GoNintendo occasionally covers articles on which game consoles do people visit the most or most popular categories on porn sites via the console's internet browser.

Heck, it's something I would never dare to want to know.

I am totally disconnected from the "Gaming community"

I was listening to a podcast where everyone was talking about how disappointed they were when the wii came out with it's stupid gimmick and weak power.

Whereas I was kinda feeling intimidated by this modern day new innovation of motion controls and wonder if i'd be able to keep up with the times. I also didn't get a wii until after Brawl was released. And I actually liked the motion controls and thought the graphics looked super nice. Especially in Mario Galaxy

I got Codename STEAM and discovered that Lucina is top tier in it.
She's an absolute monster. She has Lion's mobility-based Primary ability and Nidhogg has incredible range for relatively low Steam usage. I really need to finally get around to buying a Lucina amiibo. Last I checked they're not too bad on Amazon. Holding out for a good US restock hasn't been working out. :p


I still need to collect all the gears. Some of those later levels are a pain and Dreadnoughts are the bane of my existence.

I think I got it from Rosalina's Meme Observatory. Maybe it's related to one of the ones you follow.

I only found it because I was looking for a Smash La Smash picture with Rosalina when we were posting that stuff but I couldn't find it. Found that page instead though. I made the only possible choice.
The page that pic originally came from is called "Diddy Kong pointing at an unknown object with his hat on backwards"
It's exactly what it sounds like
inb4 Sakurai helps out with Kojima's game.
Put Kamiya in too and we have the perfect developer team
Too bad he's working on Scalebound

Hey, you know how I said animating fire was hard

I gave it a shot


It's only 12 frames per second, but I think it turned out good for a first try.

I should have just made a gif of the fire, because then it would repeat forever instead of just a few times like I did with the video

Edit:


Fire-Test.gif

So, I did!

Edit 2: I need to animate the embers flying off better, but I figure that going into it.

"Making" a smash based thing. . . all it did was make me want it more and make me sad it wont be real

700,000 Games on the box
119 Games in the disc
91 Games that function
62 Games that aren't clones of eachother

That's what Sony's telling us :4pacman:

Welp.

Time to do a thing.

Day 9 - :4marth:

A little bit of a heated subject, but Nintendo is REALLY pushing Fire Emblem as a phoenix of a series ever since Awakening.
That said, I expect to see Fire Emblems 15 and 16 to come before Smash 5. For the scope of the series... I honestly believe we'll see :4lucina: cut and have one more newcomer by nature of the growing series in both roster and popularity. And there are 3 paths to truly take.

Fire Emblem 15/16 Protagonist - Not.. much more to say. The "Flavor of the Month" kind of mentality of things; especially if they have something unique to offer like the Magiknight approach of :4robinm: and dracomorphing of :4corrinf:. Besides this... there are two characters with any level of reocurrance, popularity, and importance to note. And here's a hint... the 25th anniversary artwork.


Anna - The "second mascot" for the series. Single most reoccuring character. One that Intelligence Systems loves using (based on how much Annas showed up throughout Awakening's DLC, MAKING HER THE HARDEST BOSS OF THE SERIES, and other things...). With an in-universe excuse to effectively use anything besides transformations in her arenal but most predominantly bows, lances, staves, swords, and hidden weapons. The more that she gets used as a token secret character and used at the forefront for the promotional material of the series the more likely she becomes.

Tiki - With Corrin... her chances legitimately decreased by a significant amount. But this fan-favorite manakete is still one of the biggest names for Fire Emblem... even being put as the main face for the Fire Emblem cast in the most recent spinoff.

I'd honestly expect either Anna or a "new protag" make the jump for the next roster, to be brief.

I swear MvC4'll take place in a courtroom if this continues.
But isn't Pheonix Wright i-
Which would immediately confirm Daredevil, Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth.
There you go :4pacman:
I think Sony means 'WE HAVE NAMES AND A TITLE SCREEN!'
Smash 4 had that too way back in 2013
Just names and a title screen.
But that's 1/2 Wonderful Game(s), not 100 probably-gonna-be-cancelled Games :4pacman:
OH **** ME I FORGOT ABOUT DEADPOOL
Well, remember about Deadpool.
He's a thing.
He's in Mahvel.
Remember him? :4pacman:

Ok so let's just be real: All 7th generation console launches were bad. PS3 is possibly the weakest.

Is it just me or that artwork has Chrom and Ike looking at each other as if about to start a fight at any moment? :laugh:

Considering Smash and a certain Palutena's Guidance...

And yeah, I could see Anna being a candidate for the next Smash... At least, there wouldn't be any necessity to add more FE characters anymore. :laugh:

Anna could use bows, staffs and lances, ride a pegasus for her FS and bam, along with Corrin, Robin and the others, the entire combat aspects of the franchise would be in Smash and FE character wars would be over forever. (Who am I kidding? They wouldn't.)

Yeah and she does a fair amount of damage while also having a fairly high capacity Steam boiler (at least for early on - I'm only starting at the Washington Military Base, IIRC). Her only real weakness is her low HP stat, but it isn't too bad, especially since the "Born Leader" passive ability she has grants increased attack and defense to the entire party.

As for the Amiibo itself, where I live, GameStop tends to hold FE character Amiibo in some capacity, but yeah, Lucina and Robin are some of the hardest Amiibos to get. I got lucky with mine, a GameStop employee basically did me a random favour and held them for me for a week when they got extras they never ordered. It's normally against company policy to do that but he said it was fine since they screwed up my Palutena pre-order initially at the time.

Also I have found all of the Gears so far. I haven't had too much trouble with them so far, but some of them are out of the way or in dangerous areas.

------------

I just played the mini-sodes of To The Moon.

The second one is mind blowing. It literally changes the entire potential meaning of the game, and opens up a whole new rabbit hole.

Ive finally stayed playing Xenoblade X and it's really good so far. The world is huge and looks amazing too. Seems to be a bit of a learing curve to begin with - i.e the amount of conent in the menus and on the screen.

So do you think :4cloud: will be banned at Genesis 3 due to the fact he's not even a month old (something similar happened at EVO '15 but with :4lucas:, :4feroy:, & :4ryu:)?

I feel like we've had a lot of time to master him, and we have more knowledge of the game now, but he might.

The main reason that the June DLC was banned is because it was three characters they had to purchase and install on countless Wii Us, alongside being released close to the tournament.

The main reason Lucas was banned in the first place is probably because Mr. Wizard didn't know when he was coming out, and no one could've expected another two characters to be out at the same time.

Cloud is a single character, however. Genesis is also a smaller tournament than EVO, so setting it up would take less time (sort of).

Also: if the TOs haven't announced anything concerning Cloud's legality yet, chances are they aren't going to do it now.

Cloud is legal at Genesis.

The rule was if he was released before Christmas he'd be legal. And he was.

I ended up buying Xenoblade Chronicles X, just booting it up now. Time to see if it lives up to the original~

Hey guys, how it's been going?

You may have noticed that sometimes i log yet instantly log out:

There are 2 reasons as to why i keep coming back to SB:

1.Im still waiting for Chronobound's post-morterm on Roy (even though there's a good chance that Chronobound just forgot it and im just hopelessly waiting for it) and i check out if he has finished it.

2.Just because of nostalgia.

If you have been wondering what i have been doing, here's a list of things:
1-I've recently bought Majora's Mask 3D. It's the game i've recently played the most.

2-I've tried out the demo of Tomodachi Life. I planning to get the game sooner or later. Some of the islanders i have planned to put there are:
Me (duh)
Roy
Vinny (i suppose you know who inspired me to get this game right?)
Shaq
Lucina
Speedwagon (the actual character, not me)
Don Ramon
Magus
Dio Brando
Taiga
Ruby
Wario
Waluigi

3-I've also tried demos of Azure Striker Gunvolt and Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call (though i have no plans of buying the full versions of those games right now)

I just posted here since i wanted to say hi again. Don't expect me to post or even log here nowadays since now im pretty inactive.

Happy New Year (yeah i know im late into this but still) and i hope you have a nice day :).

It's good to see you again! We've been getting hyped about Pokken's new character announcement, celebrated new years, and I casually admitted I had a **** a few days ago
