I really like Shantae's alternate costumes for Half-Genie Hero. From an artistic standpoint, Shantae is a really fun character to draw, even more when you put her in different outfits.

I doodled Shantae in a cheerleader uniform, and she's nothing short of adorable.

I decided to pick up one of OmegaSunBurst's Shantae shirts on Redbubble. The guy does fantastic work and I wanted to support him somehow.

That, and be a walking Shantae billboard.

Thanks everyone!! I based the pose off her boxart artwork from the first Shantae game, in terms of design this is more or less how I think Shantae could look in Smash, I hope I captured her essence

And just for the heck of it, here's a monkey:

For the heck of it, here's Matt Bozon's interpretation of Samus.

Y'know, Nintendo... Wayforward has proven that they can make a good Metroid-styled game 3 (going on to 4) times...

Just have them make it.

Monkey Shantae may be my favorite transformation in terms of adorableness. Good job!

We should also have Shin'en make a new F-Zero. C'mon, Fast Racing Neo already looks like it.


Replace that vehicle with the Blue Falcon, and boom: New F-Zero.

And it would be 100 times better than the upcoming 'Metroid' game...

My friend wants to try Shantae out. I'm thinking of showing him Pirate's Curse.

If that Crusade trailer was saying anything, it also appears that there will be a Shantae stage for the game too. It looks to be Scuttle Town docks.

Can't wait to see the whole stage (and gameplay footage of our gal too)!

Kid Icarus and Metroid done by WayForward would be awesome.

My best bet is a USB Memory stick.
Need to get an external memory because Fast Racing Neo will need lots of Gigs my Wii U won't have at the point of release. Unless it is coming on physical discs?

Who knows? :3
Well guys; I can confirm that while Shantae is not present in the cast of guess characters for Runbow, 13am Games said they wouldn't mind having her in there. In fact, they would love to bring her into the game. Suppose that means they define her as an Indie if anything else.

>Nintendo hooked up other companies with 13AM games to get those IPs in Runbow

>13AM games wanted Wayforward

>Nintendo didn't go with that

>Doesn't explain why
