Really off topic.

If there are a few people who I specifically want to burn in hell, it's the UI designers of Pinterest and Fandom. Trying to find direct images on Fandom is a ****ing pain in the ass now they have shrunk their images on Google.

Not to mention their shows with Tiffany two **** and Paul "I am a model who plays COD and is stupid." Like WatchMojo but ****tier.

**** most sites and **** 99% of everyone who designs a site like that.

-----------------------------------------------

Someone mentioned Sega crossover and I just want to point this out.

If I'm not getting Virtua Tennis 5 at least give me a remake of this!

If we get a Shonen Jump platform fighter I might actually be excited since that covers One Piece and Hunter x Hunter, two of my favorite stories of all time

But Shuiesha doesn't have a good track record with quality control for their video games so it would probably suck ass

 

[Guynamednelson]

it was barely given a chance by its own parent.

Here lies Nick All-Stars Brawl, it was barely given a chance by its own parent.

Wait, did Nick shut down a major tournament or call off DLC or something? That’s what I’m reading from this Wording.

A lot of people were put off by the excessive nair spam in the first major tournament for the game, if the lack if voice acting was something they could tolerate.

No, its just there's already a new game coming that's going to steal all the clickbait speculators away from it, and discussion on NASB as a whole has dried up anyway, not even to mention plummeting player counts and Twitch viewership.

We actually did get a cool one on DS called Jump Ultimate Stars. It had a cool mechanic where you can customize the skills of a character with manga panels that you attempt to fit on the screen. I wish that game would get a sequel.

Nah they just didn't give it nearly enough budget nor time in the oven

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Can't wait for folks to start calling Multiversus the next "Smash Killer"

Because yeah Nick All-Stars Brawl surely had done that. Sarcasm

I have that on my DS flashcart

It might be good for multiplayer but as a single player experience it kinda blows, the AI is braindead and provides no challenge at all

Also no playable Usopp 0/10

Guess the hype was just a passing fad after all. Shame.

So when can we expect the Virgin vs. Chad memes to start rolling in?

 

[Guynamednelson]

Apparently there are reports of NASB being a commercial success regardless, so that should mean support can continue after the two free DLC characters.

...please?

 

[drag0nscythe]

Disney probably content with having Sora in Smash anyways

but Nickelodeon and all of WarnerMedia wanting to Smash…

…why…View attachment 335905

So be it:

Spoiler: SU Future

I am not a fan of the show. It annoys me to no end and like Undertale in its prime, the culture around the show semented an unfounded hatred of it that I cannot get over.

Because Smash Bros. is a popular series.

I think they will continue, but it'll probably be slow.

Like, game's probably gonna have the Sword of Damocles hanging over its head the entire time, knowing Nick could just look at the bleed out and say "no more".

 

[Schnee117]

What'll help Multiversus beyond having a much deeper roster to pull from with WB's vastly more extensive history is that being free to play makes it a lot more accessible.

Brawlhalla pulls in huge numbers even if it isn't the most in depth fighter out there because it's free.
Keep a steady stream of content from a wide variety of franchises coming and WB have a hit.

Gintoki is playable so that balances out all the negatives

 

[Hex D. Jess]

g'night m'gamers

 

[MooMew64]

NGL since it’s free to play

Yeah I’ll play it for Gandalf lol

 

[kylexv]

I actually want Bandai-Namco to re-release The Outfoxies

Ya know, the very first platform fighter to be ever made.

I've heard about that game. I spotted it when I was at Galloping Ghost arcade a few months ago, and I got a chance to play it there. Makes me wonder how much Smash was influenced by it, if at all.

 

[TheMightyP]

Oh. Steven Universe. Going to be a hard pass for me then.

Bad take + Twitter Moment + Get Ratio'd by the best Crystal Gem

 

[MooMew64]

Okay

but if Johny Bravo gets in the game is based

Wait, that’s not Peridot. What game are you trying to play here, spud man?

 

[Shroob]

And that's another thing.


Game's free. Even if the dev studio is a literal no one, it's free. What do you have to lose from giving it a try? Like, even if it blows, you didn't pay a cent.

Likewise, 50 bucks.

 

[TheMightyP]

Peridot's grear too, but Amethyst gets credit for being an OG Crystal Gem

ngl I wish she stayed dead

never listen to a fanbase

Because Smash Bros. is a popular series.

it was popular back when everybody else failed to survive Smash, nothing different here

 

[Momotsuki]

And all because Nick gave the idea to a low-budget gaming company rather then a big one.

Nice going Nick...Nice going...

*All because Nick didn't give the gaming company a budget.
Ludosity is quite competent and frankly a great choice given the game they wanted made. It's purely on Nick for not giving them the resources to create something special.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I've heard about that game. I spotted it when I was at Galloping Ghost arcade a few months ago, and I got a chance to play it there. Makes me wonder how much Smash was influenced by it, if at all.

I have seen some claimed that some who worked on The Outfoxies later worked on Smash 64.

However, I have painstakingly looked through the credits of both games and not a single person was listed in both, so I don't believe those claims at all.

 

[MooMew64]

To add to this:

Ludosity didn’t choose their budget or how long they got to work on the game.

That’s not how game developers work.

I don't know what exactly Nick hoped for with this game. Limited dev time/budget, reports that their roster idea was boring and safe, but...they wanted it to be an esport the whole time, and picked a dev team that had worked on a platform fighter before.

 

[Z25]

Okay

but if Johny Bravo gets in the game is based

They ain’t ready for the funky monkey combos.

Johnny about to be the Diddy Kong of this.

Smash was making beeg numbers and they heard them Melee kids were mighty upset at them and would throw money at the right buzz words.

They then cheaped out ‘cause lol licensed game IP holders.

‘Least that’s my own speculation

 

[Hadokeyblade]

Oh Steven Is on the roster? Cool i can use him as a punching bag.

I Will main Bugs.

Battle Stadium exists.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Good afternoon everyone.

 

[Momotsuki]

Yume Nikki/YNFG platform fighter?
I'm already juggling too many projects as is, I need to get the thought out of my head, pronto.

 

[Noipoi]

Alright, I’m back home.

Tomorrow I pick up my PS4.

It’s Kingdom Hearts time

 

[Guynamednelson]

anyway if Nick ain't killing Smash the WB game certainly won't

look closely at the leaked screenshot and you can see gameplay features that are right at home in smartphone fighters, not ones that actually get tournaments

 

[TheMightyP]

Steven Universe's ultimate is that he demands them to apologise for the damage this opponents have done. They die to the power of guilt.


Kinda acts like Pheonix Wright's level 3, thematically.

 

[Shroob]

Like, again, I take no joy in seeing NASB in its current state, and hope beyond hope that it gets back on its feet.


But the likelihood of that is slim. Watching its numbers on Twitch and Steam drop constantly over a period of time is a telling sign that, unless something's done soon, the game's on its way out already.



I can definitely see a lot of reasons that lead us to where we are currently.

It breaks my heart. I truly am excited for Garfield and will definitely pick the game up on sale once he's added, but as it stands...Well, it looks like all I'll have is AI to fight against, which is fine. Guess it's what I already do with Smash, lol.

But yeah...This is heartbreaking. The love from the devs is there, it just has an absolutely terrible parent company callin' the shots.
