Hi Rie.

I do hope the holidays are great for you and you have a good Christmas this year with your family. Enjoy the holidays.

I love how little this thing's stats change upon evolution

 

[Megadoomer]

Looking back on Ultimate, one thing that felt kind of underused was the Present menu. I mean, I get it - much like with amiibo, they're kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to doing anything with it. Do too little with it (like amiibo post-Wii U), and it feels pointless, and do too much with it (like how some people viewed amiibo-exclusive content like the Fusion difficulty in Metroid: Samus Returns) and people complain because it's locked behind a paywall.

I just feel like more could be done with a menu like that than just giving us six spirits and a single music track. I get it - they probably don't want to require people to buy whole games to get all of the content. (though it's nothing new for the series - Melee required you to have Pikmin 1 save data for 100% completion)

I just figure something could be done with smaller downloadable titles. People might be annoyed by a song being locked behind a $60+ game, but it doesn't seem like it would be as big of a deal if, for example, buying the Switch versions of Dragon Quest 1, 2, or 3 (any one of them, so you have three options and they're all cheap) unlocked the Dragon Quest Overture, or buying any version of Shovel Knight on the Switch (Treasure Trove or any of the individual releases) unlocked Strike the Earth! Plains of Passage, or buying either of the Bayonetta games unlocked You May Call Me Father or The Greatest Jubilee, or buying any of the countless Sonic games on the Switch unlocked Chemical Plant Zone if they couldn't include those songs in the base game (or in the initial DLC release) for whatever reason.

I'm not familiar with the music of Final Fantasy 8, 9, or 10, but I'm sure there's some stand-out song that could be included so that we can get some content from Final Fantasy games beyond 7. (also, how haven't they released FF1-6 for the Switch yet? That seems like a no-brainer)

I'm not sure how possible it is to do something like that, but I figure it would be nice to give the player more than one option to get that content. (plus, due to the timing of Joker's Smash release compared to the release of Persona 5 Royal, we couldn't get Take Over in Smash, which is a huge missed opportunity; getting Sophie's spirit early was nice, but unlocking Take Over in Smash on top of that would be amazing)

Admittedly, all of this is a minor quibble at best, and the game is amazing, a testament to how far this series has come since the N64 days.

I'll take the faster Finishing Touch, thanks Sakurai and co.

Also, some buffs might catch a lot of people off guard. They buffed:

• Falco F Smash (range matches visual now)
• Ike Side B (damage / knockback buff)
• DK Giant Punch (armor comes out faster)
• Link Up Smash (knockback)
• Inkling F Smash (sweetspot buff)

Mentioning this here as a bit of forewarning.

Are the sequels really that bad? Aside from the fifth one, from what I looked up they seem to be rated favoritely.

Regardless of good or bad though, I judge movies on my opinion only and not on the ratings of what sites say. Deep Rising (1998) I really enjoy which I got around to rewatching again yesterday and that's a fun b-movie that had a 38% on Rotten Tomatoes (Why no one should take that site for granted). Congo (1995) I also enjoyed despite the negative feedback that film got.

It's probably best to watch them and form your own opinion (that's a good mindset to have), though from what I recall, 5 doesn't have much redeeming qualities. (with the exception of the Suicide Squad movies, I have no idea why Hollywood keeps trying to make Jai Courtney a thing - both Suicide Squad movies were the only times where I found him entertaining)

I liked 3, and while I haven't seen 2 in a while, from what I recall, it's very similar to the first one except in an airport and with a much less memorable villain. (I'm sure that the actors who played the villains did a good job, but they're no Alan Rickman)

I don't remember much of 4 (Live Free or Die Hard).

If you want. Shaymin Or Darkrai, Don’t update your game!

 

[MooMew64]

Lol I figured they patched this.

I'm just gonna go without it: If they patched it, it means they don't want us to have them yet, and I ain't gettin' banned, lol.

 

[Noipoi]

I’ll just wait for the official events to drop. I’m too lazy to do the glitch lol

 

[MooMew64]

They're probably planning to do stuff with 'em around Legends, so we probably won't be waiting long.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

It's been months. If someone truly cared about that part they would've seen it in theaters while it was still in rotation.

looks at unlucky the Chinese fans hiding from spoilers are…or those who didn’t have enough money and/or family love to be taken to the film

 

[TheMightyP]

Inkling buffs? Pyra and Min Min nerfs?

[MooMew64]

TheMightyP

[Lamperouge]

Even though I main the character, I think Pyra/Mythra should've been adjusted more. The changes here honestly feel like a slap on the wrist.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

how about Sephiroth and Kazuya? I guess they were left alone

Spirit Battle ideas

I know this is 4 months late, but I wonder you how feel now with how poorly this aged. Oh yeah, this battle, lol! I'd personally say this aged like a fine wine, looking back now.

Yes it is:

It’s called a Park Ball apparently. It’s leftovers from when Ramanas was Pal Park. I can get a screenshot in a bit

— 🌑X Amamiya🌑 (@ShardZe) November 30, 2021

It’s modeled just isn’t fully implemented because it probably got cut early.

I’ll just wait for the official events to drop. I’m too lazy to do the glitch lol

They're probably planning to do stuff with 'em around Legends, so we probably won't be waiting long.

While this is possible they might not actually release at all. For one Shaymin is already in legends, and two,

they completely removed the event entirely. Which isn’t a good sign

But why go through the trouble of making it if you’re not gonna use it?

-says this.

Forgets Diamond and Pearl scripted 3 entire events that just don’t exist in the actual game.

Because Gamefreak I guess

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Huh interesting.

Apparently Adam Sandler and Jim Carrey were considered for the voices of Rocket before it went to Bradley Cooper. Honestly rather unsure if they would have done Rocket's voice justice but curious how that would have been in an alternate timeline.
