Look, having all 11 of these characters gone sucks, but that'd probably require the game to be delayed a whole year. And Nick and GameMill refused requests to delay the game by a month or two last time, they're not gonna accept that.

I’d take a years delay. I’m fine with this.

Oh ya.


Happy page 1337

Piranha Plant is funny.

The juxtaposition of a random enemy no one gives a second thought to being in the same game as some of the biggest gaming icons is funny.

It's not a joke everyone will find funny, but a little wacky never hurts.

Never go full wacky though. No one is happy with full wacky.

Viridi ranting over every major type of Piranha Plant to the point where she turned into Alvin the Chipmunk was the true peak of PP’s Smash debut

Honestly, Smash's cuts have always made sense when you think about it.

Melee to Brawl? All the clones and Mewtwo who was an unfortunate victim of time restraints. We even know that he, Roy, and Dr.Mario were being worked on to come back.

Brawl to Smash 4? Icies due to technical limitations of the 3DS and Snake due to Konami being in a bad spot. Lucas was cut out to put in as DLC, and Wolf was a super last minute addition to Brawl.

These all make sense. Even Mewtwo's Brawl cut makes sense when you realize they were going to put him in.

Nasb2 cuts make zero sense.

and Yink was cut cause **** him Tink is better

I’d take a years delay. I’m fine with this.

You’re fine with it…but Nick ain’t

 

[Guynamednelson]

Well on the plus side of things, those views don't look like Gertie is depleting THAT much interest in NASB2...

...at least until more people find out who ISN'T in. And the game stops being advertised, since ads are more important to keep a game alive than anything else.

 

[Noipoi]

Would Nick be fine with it tho

 

[Shroob]

Man, looking at the dex leak for Indigo Disc, I am soo screwed if they don't increase box size lmao.

I was very displeased with the first NASB game and I can't say that the sequel is convincing me to come back.

I mean, even with the ridiculous amount of cuts, it's still trying to be a better game in the eyes of casual players. Not having CatDog doesn't mean it doesn't have SP content and items/voices on launch.

you let pokemon get away with its own lack of content and production values don't ya?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Super Mario RPG for Switch will have the option to toggle between new OST and the original SNES one.

Neat

Fairy Miku & Jigglypuff

Very cute. Also it’s funny since Jigglypuff is No. 39 in the PokéDex (39 is a number used for Miku since, in Japanese, it can be read to sound like her name).

 

[SnakeFighter64]

They should be. People are getting mad about this.

Okay, quick question about some of the Pokemon Miku's been shown with.

I know a lot of the mons chosen are because they have something to do with music/singing, even Flygon is because one Dex entry compared the sound of it flapping its wings to a woman singing, and there's another piece of her with Farfetch'd because it has a leek. But why was Aurorus chosen to be her Rock-type partner, and Rotom her Electric-type?

Idk much about Miku but Jigglypuff is a W.

Ehhh to be completely fair people get mad at everything. I'm not saying it's unjustified in this case, but still. The company will only care if it affects sales.

Those 1.7M views (now 1.8M btw) tell me Gertie isn't affecting sales of the game that much. Besides, people might still be impressed when they see ecelebs (if they ever get around to playing it) playing it with items and El Tigre and Jimmy Neutron.

 

[Z25]

So NASB2....

Spoiler

Yep, they cut Lincoln. 11 whole cuts it is. Including cutting 2 of the ninja turtles for 2 of the ninja turtles.



Really, what the **** lmao

What we’re they cooking?

Not happy. Hope they at least add them as dlc. But so far this whole thing sucks.

if they charge for them, then no, don’t even bother. Cutting half the roster and charging for it, is just disgusting.

Spoiler: NASB2

Soo many of the cuts are just, what were they thinking?

You add Squidward, which is great, but cut Sandy? Why?

Lincoln gets cut. The main character from Nick's 2nd most popular show?

You cut 2 of the Ninja Turtles... and replace them with 2 of the Ninja Turtles? Literally why?

Toph is a hugely fan favorite Avatar character AFAIK, and you cut them?

You literally nuked Catdog and Ah! Real Monster's representation to nothing.

Spoiler

How are you going to nuke two whole franchises, add two new SpongeBob characters, but cut one,

and your going to leave avatar with representation of all 4 elements? What?????

Because there aren't any sound based Rock types and they were desperate

Rotom loves appliances.


Miku uses stuff like instruments and microphones.

 

[Noipoi]

Just saw Elemental and it was actually really sweet

 

[Z25]

Amazon Japan has a preorder bonus for Mario RPG where you can get Mario, Peach and Bowser plushies but not Mallow or Geno.

Typical Square-Enix

Yeah, see? They just didn’t wanna put in the extra effort.

They also are charging like $150 usd roughly for this package, Lmao.

 

[Shroob]

So like


Do wild Rotoms see Rotom Phone Rotoms as betrayers of their kind or

 

[Guynamednelson]

Rotom loves appliances.

I was kinda figuring it had something to do with how Rotom lives in appliances, and Miku lives in computers because she's a voice synth and not a real person.

Oh no, her PR agency has been alerted and is on its way.

I'm guessing Rotom could be because it can enter different machines, and Miku is a vocal synth software you can install on your PC (+ her character was originally marketed as an android), but I'm not sure.

I don't know about Aurorus, I guess because it's said an aurora appears when it roars? I'm just going off what Project Voltage's twitter mentions, though, but I guess that's one of its dex entries. I know that isn't singing, though. Maybe they're doing sound-related stuff in general, or the artist just liked it best.

 

[TheMightyP]

Aurorus was there because Aurorus is pretty and colorful and Miku is pretty and colorful.

Nothing much to it.

 

[Guynamednelson]

but I guess that's one of its dex entries

I checked Aurorus' Pokedex, and it only mentions auroras appearing when it howls, not sings. Could the Japanese dex entry have said it sings?

The Project Voltage twitter says "roars" (at least, according to the translator), so I don't know.

 

[Shroob]

Y'all are overthinking it when P's got the right idea.

 

[Schnee117]

Aurorus is the only rock type with a cry I can remember outside of

[Shroob]

I remember Geodude just because it sounds like an elephant.


Otherwise ya.

 

[Guynamednelson]

It's easy to remember when it when you hear it twice in the same turn one's sent out.

 

[TheMightyP]

I mean they just straight up gave up on Rock type cries because they're all just stock audio of boulders colliding or falling nowadays.

 

[Schnee117]

I remember Geodude just because it sounds like an elephant.

Are you sure it's not just because those ****ers are always jumping you in caves
But yeah that too actually, it's just not "musical enough" for lack of a better term

 

[Teeb147]

I'm hype for NASB 2

Enough anyway

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Just saw Elemental and it was actually really sweet

I've been seeing this movie get the weirdest polarizing reception.

On one hand, it did way better at the box office than anticipated and I heard about it getting more and more glowing reviews as time went on. On the other hand, there's still review videos popping up on Youtube considering it just "alright" or even claiming that it's awful.

Then again, I don't put much stock into most review channels anymore, so maybe the movie really is better than most expected. What's your overall opinion on the film?

 

[Guynamednelson]

It's just been a really wild rollercoaster of "WE'RE BACK" and "IT'S OVER" for me that may eventually have to stop at the latter because I'm desperate to play NASB2 with certain friend groups who...would find the lack of Powdered Toast Man disappointing anyway.

It’s not one of Pixar’s crowning achievements, but it’s a really sweet love story. And it handles themes like race better than Zootopia, a movie I love that really fumbled its main point.

I get that people are disappointed that some characters aren't coming back, but the gameplay looks so good compared to the first, I find it odd that people aren't focusing on the positives more.
