I hope good videogame adaptations become the next theatrical fad after Super hero movies inevitably die off. Just like how super heroes replaced Spy flicks.

Sonic and Pikachu show potential for this.
with Marvel and DC continuing to run **** through every media, it might be possible superhero movies never die...for them at the least. Tho of course all movies could end up dying and become only streamers

You know what... after I finish my platformer game I’m making for class. I am going to embark on a fan game.

Super Metal Gear. Codename: AMG2R (A Metal Gear 2 Remake). Made as if Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake was remade and ported to the snes

Konsuba is a Reddit anime.

Idk how else to describe it.
I literally only know what Konosuba is because Weiss had a few sets for it.

....And considering what kind of anime Weiss likes to add to their roster... I don't think I would enjoy watching it

Well of course super heroes as a genre is sticking around, but eventually the general public is going to get bored of these films and want something new.

same thing happened with spy movies, westerns, and even 80's buff guy action flicks. Its how cinema operates

More concept art for the game! I was having trouble figuring out a name for this dude, but I saw an authors name on a book at Barnes And Noble and just took his last name.

o3o Ooooh, I really like the design of this one! I don't know why I have always found the Plague Doctor aesthetic quite eye catching! x'D Also, I like that he's very tall!

B-B-Br*t*sh? 🤮
Honestly, it's a show that takes the common tropes of anime of the time and kinda has a laugh at them.


It's an isekai story.... except everything kinda sucks and is pretty damn realistic all things considered.

The main character is the chosen Hero... who's just some guy, and all his party members also kinda suck.


I think a friend of mine explained the show best as Japanese Seinfield. It's a show about bad people living mundane lives, not really doing anything.

So like how Clone High pokes fun at teen drama cliches?

So I took what PeridotGX PeridotGX said to mind and drew a few ideas of mine for Sinnohnian forms. I also made some custom Pokedex Entries for them. The drawings are not the best, so please ignore that bit :happysheep:.

Anyways, let's begin.

Type: Ice/Flying (For both)

Hoothoot Diamond Description:
It lives in northern climates. Due to the scarce amount of food, it typically ambushes passerby in blizzards for food.

Hoothoot Pearl Description:
It's icy cloak around it's chest keeps it warm. It is said the icy horns on it's head can stop snow from getting in it's eyes.

Noctowl Diamond Description:
It's warm plumage allows it to blend in perfectly with the snow. It is often said to be an illusion due to how gracefully it flies through blizzards.

Noctowl Pearl Description:
It stares down it's prey from inside trees. Once it's sure their guard is down, it snatches them and takes them back to it's den to eat.

Type: Grass/Flying (Swablu), Grass/Dragon (Altaria)

Swablu Diamond Description:

Berries grow from the tuft on it's head and on it's wings. It is often picked on by other Pokemon for it's sweet berries.

Swablu Pearl Description:
Swablu's berries often drop of it's wings. They are picked up and used in cooking very frequently.

Altaria Diamond Description:
It tucks in it's neck and hides, pretending to be a berry bush. Unsuspecting Bug Pokemon who come to eat are snatched up quickly by Altaria in an instant.

Altaria Pearl Description:
It lost the power of flight upon evolving. It's berries are said to be irresistible to any Pokemon.

(Image was accidentally taken upside down. Curse you Phone.)
Type: Electric/Water (For Both)

Remoraid Diamond Description:
It appears lifeless, yet despite that still moves. It does not appear to have sentience of it's own, with it's directions apparently broadcast by an unknown radio signal.

Remoraid Pearl Description:
It often swims to attach itself to Mantine. It sends shock waves to Mantine's brain to control it and bring it back to it's school for food.

Octillery Diamond Description:
It's skin is sea-through, and inside Octillery are various wires and other electrical parts. The lightbulb in it's mouth apparently sends off a signal of some sort.

Octillery Pearl Description:
It controls schools of Remoraid. The lights on it's tentacles are used to lure in unsuspecting Water Pokemon and take them as food. Many swimmers have gone missing thanks to Octillery's misleading lights.
These are pretty cool, especially the Remoraid/Octillery! My ideas for Sinnohan forms draw from Gen 5-8 Pokemon, since they were never in Sinnoh (but I guess any of them not in the Sinnoh dex itself are safe)

Imagine a game like BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle with characters from Street Fighter, Tekken, and The King of Fighters? The fighting games that are set in basically modern times without much in the way of high fantasy concept like other realms and magic, to simplify my meaning a bit. Maybe throw in Virtua Fighter and Dead or Alive too? IDK.

Isn't that just Capcom x SNK?

maybe, but cinema is also slowing or quickly dying (covid aside), and the world has been abused by their products everywhere, which can easily keep it alive. Especially since theaters and cinemas will be gone faster than superhero movies come to an end (plus that genre still has way too much in the tank, making their lifespan easier to work with. For every MCU and DCEU movie we get a Logan/Joker/TDK and a Spider-Verse/Lego Batman/TTGTTM...and of course all those animated DC movies that are direct to dvd/streaming).

also theaters dying will be disappointing, but with covid still being a ***** and Wonder Woman 84 having a high chance in proving to be a massive success taking this route, might as well be fully prepared to pull their plug
Never watched Konosuba but Megumin best girl.
Darkness is my best girl
