You so crazy
You never know. We could make out like a bandit this time!
Honestly, my second most-wanted was confirmed in the reveal trailer. All I need at this point is Lip and I'll be happy forever. They could put Freddy Fazbear on the roster and I'd balance out to "okay" just because Lip was there.I'll tell you something, my most wanted character for this game is Rex and Pyra from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, but if Lip gets a trailer, I would explode more with excitement then I would for Rex.
How does Puyo Puyo Tetris relate to Panel de Pon?
Have you ever played Tetris Attack or Pokemon Puzzle League? Gameplay-wise, they're exactly the same, just with Pokemon/Yoshi characters.
It is interesting how perceptions changed. Back when I was a kid and Tetris Attack came out, I really strongly disliked anime, so if it had come out sporting a bunch of anime fairy girls, I probably wouldn't have given it a chance. But now that I'm older my stance has softened a lot on that and I kinda lament the fact that they didn't ever bring these characters to the west.
The same thing that happened to PdP's localization happened to Puyo Puyo on the SNES and Genesis. The characters were reskinned in America as Kirby characters in Kirbys Avalanche and Badniks in Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine.
Oh, I didn't see this post.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still very much going to demand her. I just don't expect much out of it lol.
They're out of excuses. This is her time!
I greatly resent Nintendo for not ever having Captain Rainbow release in the west. We have a very sardonic culture, satirizing some of Nintendo's best characters here would have been very possible if people got over the immediate thoughts that it was inherently a homosexual game.Thought of bringing something else to bolster all of the Lip-related discussion, because I think the content in this game will have us talking for good while, since features Lip completely on her own right.
Anyway, remember when I mentioned Captain Rainbow having got it's english translation patch since last November? Someone made a full playthrough and I got curious scouring through moments with Lip:
Skip characterizes her... interestingly. Speaks in 3rd person for example, giving her very child-like personality. Also YMMV on if she's been made too child-like here, I think - though I guess it's fitting with this whole game's vibe overall.
Got to say though, I found her so very cute here!
I'd like to get a cute nickname too from her, please
Don't think Vaati or Kamek exactly qualify as "cute" - definitely magical though. Of course, this maiden here is still a big fan of him.
I don't think it's the very stereotypical "gay rainbows" that held it being localized, but the game's overall vibe, anyway. As a lot have noted, it was very much built on Japanese sense of humour and strange vibes - which is of course what SKIP's games are known for, but here it was used for some rather suggestive content even, and back in the day such a game would have been difficult to find a profitable fanbase to warrant a localization.
I've sometimes fiddled with this thought since sometimes mashing away in Animal Crossing: Puzzle League. Lip's been bit recurring retroish character in means of cameos (New Leaf) or repackaging (SNES Classic Mini JPN + Virtual Console re-releases) in Japan - and some seeds for general Nintendo-fans to recognize her better have been sown since New Leaf showing off the Flower Fairy Costume-set.
) finally in Smash Switch, her series would gain a high interest (and that's before the fanbase that'd explode on her, definitely). + Lip as the main character/host. Though maybe the problem with that would be that if next game only featured Lip + original fairies, the initial fans would miss the crossover-element, leading to danger of marketing dilution.
Kamek is definitely the most likely Yoshi rep (if not Poochy... I don't think either really has a shot).Don't think Vaati or Kamek exactly qualify as "cute" - definitely magical though. Of course, this maiden here is still a big fan of him.
(Also I think Kamek's the quintessential 2nd Yoshi-rep, if for the unique style of gameplay he could have with his magic)
On Ashley however, I'm bit iffy too, since she's bit on the popular, yet kind of generic side of "creepy cute goth girl"-archetype which I don't think won me as much over as the original characters from Warioware Inc.-game.

Things have changed since though - since much like what I feel on Mother 3, I feel like the English fan translation suffices enough to allow ones curious about the game to dive deep to it, and probably generate similar buzz or fan following as Mother-series did.
I can see those 3 making cameos in a new PdP game as playable VS characters, but I think the focus would be on Lip and the fairies. Look at the success of Puyo Puyo, Ninty would want to cash in on the cute-girls-in-puzzle-games genre.I've sometimes fiddled with this thought since sometimes mashing away in Animal Crossing: Puzzle League.

So yeah, if Lip popped in (
Now and then I had also wondered if the next PdP-title could be crossover-based to tie everything back together for the various franchises used to push the game:
