Netherealm has so many games “leaked” currently that I’m pretty sure they outnumber the games Netherealm has actually made lmao.

In all seriousness though, if theres a game company with access to enough Icons and a team capable of making a rival to Smash Bros, it’d be Netherealm.

Also, the fact that not a single MK character has been mentioned for this game is so weird that it actually makes me believe it more.

Wouldnt it be weird if the Mortal Kombat devs DIDNT put one of their own characters in a crossover game they made?

Oh, yeah, it’s an absolute no brainer. Excluding such an obvious choice sounds so much like something NRS and WB would do that it gives the leak a bit more validity in my eyes.

That isn’t to say I believe it though. Netherealm is such a by the numbers company that them making any major shift in what they make is something I refuse to believe until it happens.

I just beat Metroid Dread on 14 hours and 10 minutes.

This game is ****ing awesome! I admit that I don't love the map design as it feels a bit claustrophobic but it controls really well, almost as well as Hollow Knight in my opinion. And that's one of my all time favorite games so you know a game is special when that's the comparison I'm making. The bosses are great too for the most part.

Also Big Russel for Smash

I actually really love Decidueye, I think it’s a brilliant design. I love Primarina too.

All three Alola starters are top tier, IMO. Incineroar is just the one I gravitate to because it looks doofy and I value comedy more than most people.
Honest thoughts: I actually used to like Incineroar but too many factors just ruined them for me. Like, I'd probably be cool with the fact it's in Smash if it wasn't for the all the **** that happened on the way like verge and the Grinch, and it's hard for me to separate them from that.

Either way it was always my least favorite Alola starter because the other two appealed to me more, especially Decidueye with their edgelord aesthetic

Basically I have 2 ideas
The 2D game I imagine being a beat em up resembling WayForward’s Batman game, but fused with elements of 4 player arcade beat em ups. The whole gimmick is each of the worlds is based off of one of the 2D animated Disney Shows. The sprite work in each world being an exact replica of each show, ideally done by each show’s original character designer. I also imagine that, while the scenarios and overall story beats would be penned by the dev team, each levels individual plot would be written by people who were involved in each show originallyYour characters are Sora, Donald, Goofy, and a fourth which changes depending on the world you are in. Each character can also equip a summon character which works exactly the same way it did in wayforward’s batman game (look it up). The overarching villain wold be Mizrabel from the Castle of Illusion games, and the Castle of Illusions itself would be the final world. Not a TV show I know but I wanted to do something interesting. The worlds and their unique aspects would be as follows

Duckburg based on DuckTales (2017), Donald and Goofy look like their counterparts from that show but in their KH costumes. Sora is an anthro Lion. Player 4 is Scrooge McDuck. Boss is Magic’s DeSpell

St. Canard based on classic Darkwing Duck. Sora is in the same form as Duckburg but in the classic Disney art style. Darkwing Duck is Player 4. Negaduck and the Fearsome Five are the boss.

Castle Skyline based on Gargoyles. Sora is a human but Donald and Goofy are Gargoyles. Goliath is Player 4 and Demona is the boss.

Gummi Glen from Adventures of the Gummi Bears. No design changes. Gruffi Gummi is Player 4. The Duke is the boss.

Middleton from Kim Possible. No design changes. Kim Possible is Player 4. Drakken ad Shego are the Boss

Dragon City based on American Dragon: Jake Long. No design changes. Jake Long is Player 4. The Huntsman is the Boss.

Tri-State Area from Phineas and Ferb. Aside from appearing in the appropriate art style, Sora appears as an appropriately aged child for that show, and Donald and Goofy become ordinary animals who Dawn hats to become OWCA agents. Agent P is your Player 4. Dr. Doofenshmirtz is the boss.

Gravity Falls from…. guess. No design changes beyond the art style. Grunkle Stan is your Player 4. Bill Cipher is the boss.

Mewni from Star vs. The Forces of Evil. Donald and Goofey resemble monsters from the series. Star is your Player 4 and Toffee is the Boss.

Yonder Galaxy from Wonder Over Yonder. All of the characters resemble aliens from the show. Your Player 4 is Wander on Sylvia. The boss is Lord Dominator. Much to the ire of Lord Hater.

The Boiling Isles from The Owl House. I feel like Donald and Goofy should change here but I’m not sure how. Luz is your Player 4 and Emperor Bellos is your Player 4.

Amphibia…. do I really need to say it. Donald and Goofy are amphibians. Anne is your Player 4. King Andrias is the boss.

Springfield from The Simpsons. Of course I was gonna do this. You should have seen it coming. Lots of shoutouts to the Simpsons Arcade game. In fact Homer, who is your player 4, plays as closely as possible to that title within the mechanics of this game. The boss is Mr. Burns in his mech from the Arcade Game.

And the Final World, The Castle of Illusion. King Mickey is your Player 4. Mizrabel is the ultimate boss.

Finally, I imagine the Gummi Ship levels being top-down Galaga style shoot em ups
This one would be a dedicated game staring Sora, Riku, and Kairi. No Donald or Goofy to be found. It’s about them trying to find each other as friends again in their current states and after all they’ve been through, and they do so by finally traveling to other worlds together like they always wanted to. The combat is much more similar to FF7R with simultaneous control of the three party members as well as real time swapping between them. The universes they travel to, and the real reason this is a spin-off, are all ones Disney has acquired through their various big buyouts. You do get guest party members in most worlds. (And btw, I checked, Disney did not get Labyrinth or Dark Crystal when they got The Muppets. They literally only got The Muppets.)

New York City from Marvel Comics. A new take on the Marvel Universe based on both the comics and films without specifically being either. Plot is entirely original. Guest party members alternate between each of the big 4 Avengers, as well as Wolverine and Spider-Man.

The Galaxy from Star Wars. I seriously can’t believe the Galaxy in that franchise doesn’t have a name beyond “the Galaxy” and yet they have given the specific gravity of each planet. It’s the original trilogy condensed into one level. Luke is your guest party member, and you use the Gummi Ship when you arrive to assist in the iconic Death Star attack.
Lost Temple based on Indiana Jones. An original adventure meant to capture the spirit of the original films without jacking their plots 1-1. Indy is your guest party member.

Maniac Mansion from Day of the Tentacle. Like the original game, each party member is split up into three different time periods and you have to help Bernard, Laverne, and Hoagie accomplish their tasks to fix the time machine and stop purple tentacle. Their fused form from the climax serves as your guest party member during the climax.

The Land of the Dead from Grim Fandango. I haven’t played this game but I know it’s a classic and Lucasfilm, and now Disney, own it, so into the pile it goes.

Pandora from Avatar. It’s the plot of the movie. Romantic subtext between all three protagonists layers on thick. Jake and Neytiri are your guest party members.

The McCallister Home from Home Alone. Sora, Riku, and Kairi are transformed into 8-year olds in this world as they help Kevin McCallister defend his home from Harry, Marv, and the Heartless.

Wrecked Spaceship based on Alien vs. Predator. With their Gummi Ship crashes into a floating spaceship wreck, the team must reluctantly team up with a Predator to survive the ship crawling with Xenomorphs.

Ape City based on Planet of the Apes. An original plot. It’s the world of the most recent films but advanced to the time period of the original 60s film and with Sora, Riku, and Kairi filling the roll of the stranded astronauts.

Nakatomi Plaza from Die Hard, the worlds best Christmas movie. John McClain is your guest party member and it’s just the plot of the movie.

Invasion based on Independence Day. It’s the plot of the movie. No guest party member here. You fight aliens. You use the Gummi Ship to shot down alien spacecraft. Action all around.

Muppet Theatre from The Muppets Show. The minigame world akin to the 100 Acre Wood from previous titles. All of it is actual live action footage like an HD version of an old FMV game. Sora, Riku, and Kairi are played in live action by their voice actors as this episode of Thd Muppet Show’s special guest. How weird it looks is part of what makes it funny.

SportZone based on ESPN. Combine sports game mechanics with the games combat mechanics and you have this world, taking the place of previous games coliseum levels. Final Fantasy characters primarily hang out here as well. Mostly ones we haven’t seen yet like the quartet from 15, Terra Branford, Cecil Harvey, and the Onion Knights (who serve as the mascots) as well as assorted other characters I haven’t picked out yet. Kefka would have to be hidden here somewhere.

The final world I don’t know about yet. Not what the true final boss would be yet.
I typed so much on my phone y’all BETTER look at this.

Ayyy happy 16th birthday to club penguin. A franchise filled with love from the people but unfortunately destroyed by Disney because of their greed.

If any other company owned CP then it would still be alone today. Here’s to hoping someone tries to buy it off them and Disney sell up.View attachment 335601
Club Penguin was my **** back in the day.

I stopped reading when you told me to look something up in order to understand a core mechanic of your pitch, though that's fitting considering it's Kingdom Hearts
Sorry. It’s more so just because I don’t understand how it works in that game either. I know you could choose a summon from the main menu and then a meter would fill as you play but I don’t know how you filled it. It just kinda happens as you played from my perspective so I didn’t want to talk out of my ass. I’m sorry.

So a question for Noipoi Noipoi and Pokelego999 Pokelego999 , my Pokemon brethren:

...

How fast can I get a Skitty in Gen 4
If you’re referring to BDSP, the only way to catch it would be the Sinnoh Underground. Where’ll you be catching the non-Sinnoh native Pokémon. No idea how fast you’ll be able to find it, sorry.

It’s the same with me and Sableye lol

same. I still play club penguin rewritten. Disney may have destroyed the original but thankfully they can’t take down the copied versions. I’ll always play CPR until CP is officially brought back.
