I'm still pretty locked in on Pokemon for CP11.

Mainly because it would be hilarious and follow tradition.

Better then a ninth Fire Emblem rep.

 

[MooMew64]

Yeah nah, CP10 and 11 are it IMO. If an extension was coming, it woulda already came by now: Nintendo makes continued support very clear most of the time.

...Again, most of the time: There are outliers, but usually it is for smaller content and not anything truly notable or game changing.

Also, Sakurai has given multiple, and I mean multiple "Yeah guys, I'm almost done!" vibes with a lot of his quotes for like...The last six months. I really don't think we're getting anything more past CP11.

 

[Shroob]

Perfect rectangle imminent.

On one hand, perfect rectangle

On the other, no Sans


Difficult decisions

 

[Noipoi]

Better then a ninth Fire Emblem rep.

Plot twist.

It’s a Fire Emblem character with a Pokemon companion.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I’m just giving you fuel to absolutely wreck me with in June.


Y’know, assuming I don’t win

OK. I don't know though... I just.... emotions are complicated and I don't understand them.

 

[duxx]

cheep cheep and tetra for fp 10 and 11


that is all

 

[N3ON]

Honestly, I'm pretty content with CP10 and 11 being the last 2, regardless of who they are.


And tbh, I 100% trust Sakurai when he's hammered in "2 more" as being all that's left.


That, and the fact he used a Mii-less Roster in the P/M presentation really hammers in "2 more and done".

I wish I had a Mii toggle

 

[MooMew64]

Real talk, if Shroob's right and Yuri somehow wins, I will be convinced this pass was specifically designed to cater to my whims as much as possible.

 

[Deleted member]

yknow, one thing I still need to do is unlock all of the base characters for Ultimate.

I used to have them all unlocked, but then I got a new switch last year and couldn't transfer my data over. I've put it off for way too long.

 

[Noipoi]

If the next character is Tales Of I will be disappointed for about three minutes and then move on with my life because my happiness is not dictated by smash.

 

[Shroob]

Real talk, if Shroob's right and Yuri somehow wins, I will be convinced this pass was specifically designed to cater to my whims as much as possible.

As someone who really doesn't know a whole lot of the Tales series outside the one game I played(Abyss)


I'd be lying if there wasn't a very vocal, very immature part of my brain that starts to giggle every time I see Yuri brought up.

 

[MooMew64]

I wish I had a Mii toggle

But then I couldn't play as Sans Tifa, and I sure as heck ain't giving up my waifu.

 

[CannonStreak]

Just give in. Give in to the dark side...

You'll get cookies.

No, no, it's quite alright: Me and my Tales of series loving brothers all make the same joke whenever we talk about him, and then proceed to giggle like the 8-year olds we are.

 

[Metal Shop X]

God freakin dang it, this song always ruin me emotionally.

Like listening it for too long actually make me tear up a bit...

Sniff....I think this poor ole shark need some sleep now.

Have a good time ya all.

 

[Speed Weed]

I have never touched a single Tales game in my life, so besides just "huh his design is pretty cool i bet he'd be cool in smash", my entire frame of reference for the character of Yuri Lowell is memes about killing politicians

 

[Pokelego999]

Plot twist.

It’s a Fire Emblem character with a Pokemon companion.

A Pokemon Fire Emblem crossover would be sick though

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

If Yuri Lowell does show up in smash, i will be beyond happy

 

[Wario Bros.]

I'm almost done with my Nintendo E3 BINGO card but I'd feel more confident to finish it if we get Nintendo's blasted E3 plans.

 

[CannonStreak]

Speaking of Yuri, maybe if he is in, he could have his Final Smash have other protagonists form other Tales games join in to attack with him against the opponents? Just a thought.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

iM gOnnA lOOK aT thIs thE wrOnG wAy

OK. Let me break this down piece by piece.

First of all, do we even really know there will be more MK11 content? Like... you'd think it would have been announced by now if it were happening. And if it is then this is the longest gap between Kombat Packs we've ever gotten. Seams a little suspect if I'm being honest.

Secondly, and I'm going to briefly summarize Maxamillion Dood here because I kind of agree with him. NRS loves goofy fun crossovers. They're the people who were like "Let's have Alien and Predator fight each other in our game!" and "Let's have The Terminator fight Robocop AND Rambo in our game!". Knowing them, I feel it's more in character for them to try and get a Marvel vs. DC game off the ground then to just make a standalone Marvel game. Especially with, as Max quoted in his video, how free of corporate control from Disney Marvel Games has become recently, something which started with Spider-Man PS4 and Ultimate Alliance 3 and has continued on into the present.

Thirdly, there were rumors about NRS's next title being a Marvel vs. DC game LONG BEFORE the current wave of rumors. I actually mentioned them as much here back when they first started coming around. Back LAST SPRING. I remember because I was still in my dorm room pre-covid when they first started swirling. And you know such a project would have a really long period of negotiations.

Fourthly, do you not remember how the situation with WB Games was remedied a couple months ago? The announced it was no longer up for sale. Unless this is something new in relation to the whole "AT&T not wanting WB at all anymore" thing. And in which case I don't know why they would want to chop everything up and sell it to a bunch of people. Frankly I think more people would want to buy the whole kit and kaboodle. Especially with how many pies WB has fingers in.

There we go. That's what I have to say on the matter and I very much think you're looking at all this the wrong way and with a lack of information from both the past and the present.

tbf they added in a whole epilogue dlc pack, so it wouldn't be a surprise to have had such a long gap in between character packs. From May to October was the gap between Aftermath and the character pack 2...and who knows...maybe they'll finally get Ash

with the Marvel Games stuff, it mainly helps that Activision lost the rights to make Marvel games (and were hella dumb for not trying to strike back on keeping most of it), and others went on to get certain rights to certain franchises and all that jezzy jazz...that and it helps that Disney quit making video games themselves for some reason. Also relying on a Max video doesn't really help with what could be planned in the real world, even with points based on their past. Besides, it'd be better off to start with a Marvel only game (or keep them separate until the Injustice world fixes their ****).

I'm not sure how you remember talking about something over a year ago and it being at a specific time

and yes the WB Games stuff is new, so idk how you didn't catch that during the whole "WarnerMedia/Discovery merger" news yesterday. And sure AT&T can sell their entire gaming library off to a singular company to someone willing to spend a gallon of bucks...or they can get greedy and ship each divison off for high cash each. For example, either Microsoft can buy it all, or Netherrealms goes to Bamco, Rocksteady goes to PlayStation Studios, TT Games to Nintendo, and so on so forth. Business companies love making money, so who knows where they can go. The real issue about it being sold off is the fact that the games are at risk of being cancelled for no actual reason. Not saying they will be, but it's a move they're allowing. Unfortunately the merger doesn't complete itself until mid 2022, so for now it's all assumptions and hope.

But then I couldn't play as Sans Tifa, and I sure as heck ain't giving up my waifu.

Sans is your waifu?

I missed the part where it effected the games unit. Can you link an article or something so I can educate myself?

And honestly, I don't WANT NRS to be, and I apologize for this, wasting their time on a Marvel game when DC gets so little love in the games industry as is. I will accept and embrace a DC vs. Marvel game (I've been asking for a DC vs. Marvel fighting game for YEARS lol) but I do not want them to just do a Marvel game. That would be the opposite of hype for me.

Here's your daily dose of wholesome.

Sega wants to develop some kind of 'super game' within the next five years

Along with a new FPS from Creative Assembly and a return to older IP.

www.pcgamer.com

I'm not sure if this was posted, yet, as Sega mentioned Virtua Fighter, it has caught my attention, reflecting on the announcement of Virtua Fighter x esports last year. It's definitely my favorite fighting game altogether, because standard flashly concepts doesn't have to equate to an appealing fighter for me and hope they never implement super arts.

Blade Arcus Rebellion from Shining was delivered to me recently. Having Shining Force characters as fighters is lovely.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Been rewatching some Killer Instinct (2013) videos.

There's something about the announcer screaming "ULTRAAAAAAA! that makes me very happy.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

weirdly enough, the games are somehow the ones being negatively affected the most out of all the Warner things

 

[Will]

I mean, I guess if you roll a high number you can just summon an instant synchro and combo from there?
At worst(rolling a 1), you’re going hand-2 to summon a lvl 1, which is basically the same thing as playing One for One. So I mean, it’s not a terrible card. It’s a good combo starter at least, but I doubt it’ll bring pure Speedroids into rogue status or anything. I also don’t see it being used outside of Speedroids, cause any deck that would want more One for Ones doesn’t want to restrict what archetype that lvl 1 monster is from, they usually have better targets they want to find.

Speedroids (and Yugo) is just the Joey/Red-Eyes of Arc-V. All about potential shenanigans when really it's just alright at best with its support.

Did you see the Mystical Elf Blue-Eyes support though? Wasn't expecting that. It's so weird and specific but the tech makes it worth running at least 1 of imo.

Yeah. TT Games, Rocksteady Studios, and NRS are really the only ones I care about too. WB Boston is the one I definitely see AT&T keeping. I mean, Look at the list of games they've made. I can't see WB fighting to hang on to it. Avalanche too. They just bought it and that Harry Potter thing is the only thing they've ever made for WB. Wouldn't be much of a loss. WB Montreal too. Like, Look at their library. Another one I don't think WB will fight that hard to keep and I wouldn't miss. They MIGHT try to hold on to Monolith Productions but they also might not.

So yeah. That's my take. TT Games, Rocksteady Studios, and NRS are probably the ones would fight to keep and hang on to. The rest of them I could wasily see AT&T keeping. And honestly, I wouldn't care if Gotham Knights and Wizarding World got cancelled.

this is a mood ngl

 

[CannonStreak]

Here is a little thing to expect if you come on my property without an invitation.

Spoiler

 

[Wario Bros.]

It's interesting there are three different version of Shantae 1 builds

• Original GBC release: CAPCOM logo appears after WayForward's opening credits
• 3DS Virtual Console port: CAPCOM logo screen removed completely
• GBC Reproduction and Switch port: CAPCOM logo has been edited an replaced with Limited Run Games logo

Otherwise it's the same game but still pretty neat little detail.

Caught a couple death birds today in Pokemon Go. So that's pretty cool. So I got both Xern and Yvel. Nice, nice, nice.

Death birds? That gives me an idea for a Pokemon title.

Pokemon Life and Death.

Pokemon Life and Death.

That's just X and Y, yes?

 

[CannonStreak]

That's just X and Y, yes?

How so?

Maybe they can make music-based Pokemon games called Pokemon Rock and Pokemon Roll.

imagine being that much of a dumbass to give away the Lego franchise to someone else....but I wouldn’t be surprised

Imma need that Gotham Knights. That’s one of the upcoming games that I absolutely want to play (bout to be a Batgirl main)

Isn't he everyone's?

my waifu is John Cena, so.,.no
