Also in case, TMNTSSB4 says anything, regarding the reason for it being canceled due to that unaired episode of breaking the 4th wall, a reminder that was 20 years ago, this likely isn't the same Nick as it was two decades ago
the worse Nick could do is pull another ROTTMNT...but that would be a depressing mistreatment

Nintendo's hiring.

And yes, without Twitter translate or ability to read Japanese this does look like a Mario for President ad.

I finished the first No More Heroes. Well, besides the boss at the very end of the game. Struggling against it hard, he has a lot of health.

The only complaint with the game is how the shadows act against the models, but that's always been a problem with the original version, as the PS3 version is graphically superior but saturated to all ****ing hell. Otherwise it's very still worth the 20 dollars, my endtime was 15:20.

Megadoomer Megadoomer You've played No More Heroes, right?

If so, quick question: Can I continue playing after reaching assassin rank #1 or do I have to get all collectables beforehand?
There's a new game plus, so you can keep getting collectibles after beating the game. (assuming you mean T-shirts, Lovikov balls, and so on - it's been a while since I played the game, but I'm pretty sure all of your progress with those carries over)

Morning guys.

Also, personal question from here that's been on my mind. Anyone else think that the likes of Bandana Dee and Dixie Kong and their chances are really dead in the water? Like, with how the reveals for DLC characters have turned out, I'm certainly suprised that the support threads for these characters have managed to stick around for this long despite their uncertainty status.

And before anyone brings it up, I'll say this. A character's fan demand can only help so much into actually getting them into joining the roster, we've all seen what happened with Isaac, Decidueye, and Travis among other requested characters. And just because Spirits don't "deconfirm" now that doesn't automatically mean they're going to be chosen no matter what.

This is a sentiment I also have with the Isaac and Waluigi support threads (especially the latter one).

There are creatures that science refuses to recognize.

But if our eyes see it...

If our cameras capture it...

Does it exist?


LOST TAPES

Do you believe?

GASHADOKURO



Lost Tapes: "Gashadokuro"
Subject matter: Gashadokuro
Summary: An peripatetic with a keen interest in ancient history travels to Japan and hires a private tour guide to show him and reveal history regarding an ancient battleground despite being very reluctant to go. As midnight eventually approaches, the tour guide insists they need to immediately leave warning him of an ancient legend that occurs after midnight in the form of a towering skeletal horror from Japanese mythology.

I could see them as bonus, Piranha Plant style a la cart characters, if they ever decided to do it. Dixie would be perfect for a hypothetical Echo Fighters Pass.

So I’m thinking about going to work on the writing again for the Sonic fighting game story mode soon, but I just wanted to throw out a stupid name I came up with for the machine Eggman’s using in the story that brings in characters, worlds and objects from other dimensions and time periods.

The Timeline, Otherworld And Space Teleportation Engine.

Yes folks. The TOASTE.

Heh. My Mario and Sonic crossover can be a sequel to your Sonic fighting game, because both can utilize that machine.

This is something I've been thinking about as well. If you look at all of Smash's DLC, including Smash 4, if you exclude the veterans, the only new first party characters we got were Corrin, Byleth, and Min Min. This has lead to people believing that the only way we are getting first party characters is if they are promotional. I disagree with this notion, but I can see why people believe it. The overwhelming majority of DLC has been third party and third party characters are what gets the most attention in speculation. I think that people shouldn't sleep on first parties (especially Waluigi, Isaac, and Rex). But when it comes to Bandana Dee and Dixie Kong, I'm not sure. If you ask me, they should be in the game. They are Nintendo all-stars and they are some of the few remaining characters who feel missing from the roster. But at this point, they feel like characters that Nintendo may not go for, because while I'm confident we might get a couple more first party characters, both Nintendo and Sakurai seem more interested in third party characters. They have really been pushing this game as the ultimate crossover and no doubt they will try to get even more companies on board to strengthen corporate relations.

Overall, at least for Bandana Dee and Dixie Kong, I would give them around a 35% chance of happening. I think they are likely, but it feels like they might get passed over despite being prominent Nintendo characters. At this point, Smash feels more like a celebration of gaming as a whole rather than just a celebration of Nintendo. I think characters like Cloud and Joker have really proven this point.

Is there some kind of Game Theory reference I'm missing about Sonic's behavior or are you trying to correlate him to some real world political figure you dislike (which wasn't really my intention for my initial post)?

I'm just confused is all.

After playing that game, I was fairly confident that everyone in Sonic's world must be colour-blind, given that they keep mistaking Shadow for Sonic.
At the end of the day, who was arrested and sent to prison. In the public eye, Sonic still ****ing committed heinous war crimes that were honestly never cleared since he broke out of prison.
