On the topic of dinosaurs I really love fossils that are impressions left on rocks. Skeletal recreations made from fossilized bones are insanely cool but impressions like the famous archaeopteryx are like art. It's like looking at a snapshot from back in time.
I'd totally hang this on my wall.
My knowledge of dinosaurs is limited to Pokemon. Having said that, Aerodactyl kinda rocks.
I always liked the Stegosaurus and Pterodactyls. Other animals that stay close to my heart are T-Rex's because duh, Plesiosaurus, and Brontosaurus.
The nerd in me wants to point out that pterosaurs and plesiosaurs are technically not dinosaurs but they're still insanely cool so good answers!

I still wish to know how Sokka died, as well as to know what happened to Suki

Man, tomorrow's gonna feel weird.


We've been in the "One left" state since E3, but tomorrow we actually get to learn about and play with Kazuya. After that? It's the real endgame. The great 2-3 month waiting period.
Unless they pull a final presentation announcement like they did with Cloud.
Honestly that's what I want ideally for the final presentation regardless of who it is. Like a this for a rough idea of one that is an hour long.

-Starts off with intro and Sakurai quickly reflecting on how long this journey has been.

-New character announcement with stage and music that goes for like 35 minutes.

-New update that has a new feature or something. Mii Costumes.

-Bonus stage (Melee Final Destination) or character (Retro rep)

-10 minutes of a talk about Smash, the work and all on it and how it's coming to an end.

-Closes off with a redone "Everyone is Here!" Trailer and special artwork.

More or less sort of thing.

Yeah, it's a shame that the Legend of Korra doesn't give us much information on what happened to Sokka - I think the only thing we know is that he was still alive after Korra was born, since I think it mentioned that he helped protect her from the villains of season 3 when she was young.

my feet ****ing hurt like hell rn from all the standing and walking I’ve been doing for the last few hours :191:

I doubt I’m getting rotated for at least another 30 minutes, so I guess I’ll just have to deal with it

People would complain no matter who gets in because of it, and claim that the entire thing was rigged. They've been doing it for over five years now since Bayonetta made it in through the Smash Ballot instead of (insert their favourite character here), and I don't see that changing if we have another one.

Not allowed to sit at all man? Not in the heat and all?

I'd have an existential crisis and probably scream.

I just want the ride to end. "But nobody is asking to you to stay, you are choosing to-" **** off logic man.

Oh heavens no, I have no plans of leaving here. I'll be buggin' y'all for a while yet.

I meant freedom from Smash speculation.

It's been three years.

If this IS the final Smash game then I'm leaving but if not then I'll stick around on and off. Would ideally want to move to Discord and move our interests with not having Smash Bros as the core if that makes sense.

First they have to have a voting period.

Then they have to tally the votes.

Then they have to select a winner.

Then they have to begin development.

Then they have to make a trailer.

Then they have to record a presentation for the character.

And finally they get released.

We’d be here for a whole extra year waiting on one character.

It’s not that I’m not allowed to sit, it’s that I constantly have to to move because my current position is checking seatbelts in every. single. ride. vehicle.

Not very fun when you do it for 3+ hours :052:

we also know that he and Katara got a new mother a year or 2 after Book 3's ending

Why is it every time I speak about friends people run away.

I am not allowed to speck about the POWER OF FWIENDSHIP?

Edit: I don't know what I intended to do with that comment.

Now, I can see why people would be opposed to the idea........

But, honestly...

I don’t think I would mind.

Just submit my vote and move on with my life. Don’t engage in any arguments with the more "hostile" supporters.

Simple.

Nah. I'm fine with Nintendo/Sakurai picking the next characters assuming there's more after this Fighters Pass.

Don't forget the official results of the 2015 Smash Bros. Fighters still hasn't been fully released to the general public so for all we know all nearly every Ultimate newcomer we got could've been picks from that ballot (we already know some of the base game Ultimate newcomers were ballot picks).

I have a hard time believing Joker, Min Min, Byleth, Pyra, and Mythra did well on the ballot.

So..... anyone pick up the new Mario Golf this weekend? If so, how is it?
I picked it up.

Only played a bit of regular golf, but it's a good time. How much you'll enjoy it depends on how much you like the core concept or if you enjoyed older ones.

It's apparently a bit light on content ATM from what I've heard from others, but it's getting free updates like Aces did, so if you wanna invest now there's more than likely at least 8+ months of stuff they'll slowly add to bump up the content a bit.

Cuz I don’t often present my pie in the sky dreams as a completely logical business move, when evidence points otherwise.

Like for example…A Pokémon 3D platformer. Like Banjo Kazooie, or the sandbox Mario’s. Several worlds filled with collectibles and Pokémon characters with unique personalities and quests to give out. Fully voice acted for all regions, of course.

Would this make me piss my pants in joy? Yes. But the Pokémon company doesn’t really need to do this, so I don’t act like they do. Instead I just say “wouldn’t this be rad?”
An idea I had was a Monster Hunter esque game in First Person that's 10 times more complicated than SWSH.
