I'm not going to feed the troll but while we're on the topic, I hope SEGA returns doing crossover games for their franchises.

There are enough requests for at least another racing game and the last one was a short-lived mobile game so I think we're kinda overdue for one. And this is where I shill the Battle of AGES thread

Yeah, I wish another Sonic and Allstars Racing game would happen.
I could want to see Scrapped characters like Ristar, Nei, Vectorman, Hatsune Miku and Segeta as Newcomers.
Or you know what? If Sonic would join Matio Kart, then Mario joins Sonic and SEGA Allstars Racing.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Put Sonic in Fortnite, have him cranking 90s and team up with Spider-Man for the Victory Royale

Hell yeah the one decent thing Ken Penders was involved in

Also Sonic could cooperate with Batman, Rock and Ryu to win in squads.

Why do you think I've put the troll on my ignore list? Wait.

They didn't know that? Oh. **** one.

Still I would love another Sega Crossover since the company has been in like the past 5 years in their Renaissance thanks to Yakuza and Persona.

We need a new Racing game.

 

[Lamperouge]

Tbf there could be talks about new mechanics, modes, veteran changes, new stages, items, ATs, etc but whenever I checked that thread for ****s and giggles it's just arguing about cutting those dastardly third parties so that my special favourite D lister has a chance instead of literally anything else that a new game would bring

Yeah, you right.

I forgot that there's more to Smash than the character select screen. Guess I'd been hanging around Newcomer Speculation when it was on its last legs too much.

I actually lowkey think SEGA's been doing pretty good lately even aside from those two. They've been licensing all kinds of old series to bring them back in some shape or form and have a good amount of actually solid series going strong.

I just need them to make a good Sonic game and bring back some obscure JRPGs me and like five people care about, and we're good.

We need to Revive old SEGA IPs like Vectorman, Space Harrier or OutRun.
Fantasy Zone and Shinobi are also need to be Revived.

It's honestly kind of hilarious as I think it's far too early to speculate on a new game considering just how much can change in a few years gaming wise* yet for some reason my mentality on how a new game could be speculated about is so much more advanced lmao

*Like, bro, back in Smash 4, Doom and Crash were still dead while NieR and Persona were niche as ****, people were excited about Mighty Number 9, etc

Don't forget the arguments about whether the next Smash should be a reboot or port that everyone takes everything weirdly personally.

Even I remember that times where people complained about Wii Fit Trainer.
Smash before 2016 was very colorful world until Smash Ultimate came and revealed Byleth, which it wasn't a mistake.

As true as this is, we all know it's gonna turn into people's 5 page paragraph on why Geno McCrash is definitely a lock or Sakurai hates them.

I still consider 2017 to be the start though in the West with Sonic Mania, Persona 5 and Yakuza 0 IMO of their Renaissance so that's why. And I just see the last two as like their head franchises now along with Sonic. Persona is critically acclaimed and Yakuza is has became really popular (though anyone who buys it thinking it's a GTA is clearly an idiot).

But I'm still probably the only person here who wants Virtua Tennis 5 badly. And I really want a Virtua collection.

That said, bullying Pokemon fans is always morally correct.

Finally, someone who speaks the truth.

It would be like Star Fox Zero, but better.

It won't be hard, but it will be challenging.

 

[MooMew64]

Man, I ain't even thinkin' too hard about the next Smash, personally. That thing ain't even coming for another 4-5 years at the earliest, and who knows what the landscape of the industry will look like at that point.

Shoutouts to Sakurai saying people should forget about him for now, though. Man's finally got tired of Nintendo Life making a new article about him every time he tweets something, lol.

Now would be the perfect time for an amazing PSAS sequel to swoop in and fill the market gap. Of course it wont because Sony is Sony. Buy a Girl can dream.

It's wild how at the start of Ultimate Crash was making a really good comeback and now he's a toxic brand because of Activision-Blizzard's uh...
vaguely gestures at everything

I mean, it's kinda funny because from my experience, Crash fans are the only ones who actively do not care about the controversy.

Sakurai in 2022: “Forget about me please”

“B-b-but how am I supposed to make our readers speculate how Sakurai eating pancakes with his wife and cutting them in a specific pattern means Ms. Pac-Man is coming as a bonus fighter!?

Hell bump the numbers up to 8 or so. No Smash til the end of the decade and all that.

Come on 2020s. Give us a Brand New World and then Smash.

Or something witty.

I'm not really thinking about the next Smash much either. Unlike some Smash fans, Smash isn't the only game I play, and I have other things to keep me occupied.

Jokes aside, I'm pretty content with Ultimate, and I don't think we need another installment for a while. Plus, Smash speculation has just gotten tiring, even if I never really partook in it myself. Speculation has just turned into "I want this person in! No I want THIS person in!" instead of folks actually discussing who they speculate will be in the game. Like, I have loads of crazy off the wall characters I'd love in the game, but I ain't gonna speculate them cause I just don't think they're likely. The fact that a lot of folks don't seem to understand what goes into choosing a Smash fighter doesn't help either, haha.

This is the best future timeline I've ever seen.
In this timeline, there are characters like ExciteBiker, Andross, Crash and Doom Guy as newcomers!
And they brought back everything the Fans want, even wavedashing.

Incorrect, Smash fans do not play Smash, either.

Smash fans don't play video games, they stare at CSS.

Welcome to another MightyP top 5 list, this time we'll take a look at top five bruh moments in gaming

5. Nessa's reveal in Pokemon. It's no secret I hate Pokemon fans, but that day I truly hated Pokemon fans like no other. For some reason they have to keep collecting all 151 forms of racism. If I wanted racism, I'd just go to the KKK. Oh wait, there's no difference

4. The Game Awards. It has sucked ass every year, rewarding the basic and ****ting in the unique. Award season just sucks ass in general. if I wanted to see lots of corporate [noun] [verb]ing, I'd just watch [not appropiate for Smashboards]

3. Crypto Companies. Everyine hates microtransactions, but who tf wants crypto? Ubisoft tried, only for it to flop horribly. Now Konqmi and Square want some of the action. If I wanted to see tanking, I'd just watch a ****ty sports team.

2. r/Gaming. Reddit moment.

1. X-Box One reveal. Has the comeback of the century, but lets be real that **** was an overglorified Government spy tool when it was announced. Who approved that? If I wanted the government spying on me, I'd just...


Oh ****.

I don't even want to give it any views because it's just going to be the same old "scrap everything that makes Amy her own character and replace it with Blaze/Sally/whatever".

Here are the feelings directly from multiple people at @Pixar .... "We put countless hours in for years to make these movies. Our vision while making them is imagining people watching it in a theater. To know now that will never happen is devastating. They lied to us." @Disney

— EmpireCity Box Office (@EmpireCityBO) January 8, 2022

Oh man, this whole Disney-Pixar Turning Red situation is really turning in to a fiasco if this turns out to be true and I am sure Chapek will have a lot to answer for this.

EDIT: To further add this, I do feel for all the people that had worked on the film and I am aware of how much they want their film to be shown in theaters. But then again, we are still in a pandemic (cases have been very high) and its really hard and uncertain to say what will happen this year.

I think they should consider delaying the film's March 11 release and reschedule a new date (maybe perhaps it should had taken Lightyear's spot) instead of putting it on streaming.

Chapek should know by now he cannot afford to make another mistake like how the Black Widow simultaneous release had happened and if this is true, this will be another headache for him. This is one of the reasons why I don't feel for Chapek's vision in contrast to Iger's vision.

PMEX Remix is teasing a character revamp for the next update

Kind of looks like the Final Fantasy symbol which could mean Sephiroth (likely giving him his Ultimate moveset) or Squall Leonhart (they did share a video on improvements of him a while back)
