ok so I’m checking out the Metaphor demo and the fact that the protag talks has shocked me…despite Vincent being an extremely talkative protag for Catherine and Aigis talking a good bit for The Answer

This last post of Swamp's game was a while ago, but I'm replying to it anyway. :4larry:

Oh shoot, uh...

You don't like SPM? Not very wakka wakka of you.:ultpacman:

I miss my wife
"Pro tip. Don't use any spell or incantations to raise the dead. I uhh, learned that lesson last summer. After sister even advised me not to..."

I baked a pizza and it suddenly sprung to life and turned aggressive. Anyone have a solution to this problem?

Sometimes I see art that I'd love to have as my pfp, but I'm too much of a coward to ask permission to have it as my pfp. That's why all my pfps are either screencaps or handmade.

I’d join the padoru cult if I hadn’t just got this amazing new art for my pfp. What to do..
Stick a tiny padoru sprite in the corner of your pfp

Someone on the front page pointed out


Someone edited the Smash Wiki to 'badmouth' Smashboards because "People no discuss Smash, me angy" more or less


lol
I remember reading that article while sitting bored at work the other week. It's kind of here nor there. Smashboards, to my knowledge, has no association with Smash Wiki so I don't think Warchamp cares about what they say. Whoever wrote it does seem to have a grudge against Venus's SSB Infinite proposal thread in particular. lol

I will say though that as someone who was somehow given a vote for the Official Tier List within the Smash Wii U/3DS Backroom, is that most competitive players left as it was easier to pursue their personal brand via the rise of social media and the increased involvement of Smash within the larger FGC/Nintendo themselves. There was already not much of an interest to draft a Wii U/3DS Tier List given the sheer amount of match ups to consider, so naturally no one was interested in even making an attempt to tackle an Ultimate Tier List.

Previous Tier Lists were mostly debated upon match up by match up and put up for votes, so it takes a lot of time and effort to contact Players and promote discussion among them. Most of the Admins of Smashboards are from the Melee/early Brawl era scene so as you can imagine have their hands full with jobs/families. For example, the site's former owner, AlphaZealot, for those who don't know, now works for TPC and has occasionally appeared in-person in Nintendo/Pokemon Directs.

I do think the Forum format still has it's place despite the rise of Social Media/Discord, it just depends on how well the format can be played to it's unique strengths.

This is how the dudes in Delicious in Dungeon talk about Marcille behind her back
I hope the Tsukihime remake ironed out some of that early 2000's edge out of it... back when it was a porn game.


Cause man, Shiki was legit a terrible person who said terrible things.

new Avatar rumor time
the next Avatar will be a female named Pavi, her animal guide will be a cat-monkey named Geet, and will run into an air bending teen named Jae. In addition, the following…
  1. Korra will be the only Avatar Pavi can talk to
  2. Korra will also have turned the 4 nations into 7 havens (aka countries/locations)
  3. This will be due to some cataclysmic event that causes her to do so
  4. Pavi would indeed be an Earth bender if true
  5. She would be a 10 year old twin sister of someone who was raised elsewhere
  6. They then reunite and train together cause aww
these are the articles where I got this from

Strange thing to mention when quoting my Dunmeshi post but alright

I wonder if that's cause it was a fan translation back then, so far Shiki's not really rude to anyone other than Inui or when flabbergasted at White Woman's behaivour. Though considering that flashback which is currently a mystery, his internal thoughts on Akiha and how he and Arcueid met, I have no doubts he sucks lmao, I'm gonna enjoy this

Hi folks,

I'd like you to remember that no matter how bad you think you are at your job, you are definitely better than the people at the Rollercoaster Corporation of America were.

You know Son of Beast, often said by many to be one of the worst rollercoasters ever made? That was their fault.

That company was the entire circus.

Yeah, I just got reminded you were playing Tsuki out of the blue lol.

As for the translation debacle... nah, Shiki threatens to r-word someone in the original, which is even carried over in a scene in the official manga adaptation. I know people who personally won't even touch the remake because they hate Shiki THAT much, despite the remake removing that line outright. Early 2000's Type-Moon stuff was VERY edgy. Reminder, Illya told Berserker to violate Saber and then behead her afterwards. :061:(In the original 2000s game)

Oh yeah Marvel rivals has had several more characters leaked. No set release window, just characters with slots allocated to them in the code. A few of which have actual artwork. So beware if spoilers:
View attachment 396645
View attachment 396646
View attachment 396647
View attachment 396648

Rest of the F4 are associated with character slots, and so are Jean Gray and Emma Frost.
Depending on how the game evolves, there’s gonna be ton of characters but many many low tiers. It seems like the meme characters will get hit the hardest.

The wiki post was clearly made by someone who doesn’t understand Smashboards history.

I’ve been here since nearly the beginning (melee days).
The reason why this place isn’t the place to chat about smash is because of several key areas:

1. Mass adoption of Social media (namely Facebook around 2009 and ultimately Discord in 2015). People simply prefer discord servers + FB groups and events where they can chat as much as they want without fear of being modded, create there own rules, communities, and events that can be seen by a base of people 10000x that of Smashboards.

2. Mass adoption of Smart phones around 2010 (iPhone 4). After iphone 4 launched, more and more people grabbed a smart phone, downloaded FB (ultimately discord) and the migration of players was in full force. I know it’s hard to believe that there was a time where not everyone had a smart phone but that time did exist.

3. The major Smashboards hack of 2011 (2012?). The hack lasted a month and all we could view is the front page with a message from the hackers. I don’t remember if Gideon or MLG_JV were in charge at the time but they sought outside help to fix the issue. This was the nail in the coffin that essentially made everyone say “yea, social media is the way. It never goes offline like this.”

4. The natural decline of forum based websites. Old crust dudes like me prefer a centralized and organized base of knowledge (forums dedicated to games as it’s a one stop shop for all your questions and answers) but the public does not. They all wanna be the leader of a group, event, community and because of that, literally 99% of forum based sites (outside of Reddit) saw a massive drop in users and actively.

In conclusion, smahboards gets spikes in usage over the years post-2012 but it was never long lasting because social media took over. So it’s no wonder this site is on life support and we don’t talk about smash much. All the smash talk is on discord/FB/twitter/reddit. I won’t give up on SWF though.

Antstream Arcade announced today they have a license for Disney Games (note: Lucasfilm games titles were already present, this is for mainline Disney).

The first batch is Aladdin (SNES and Genesis), The Jungle Book (SNES, Genesis, and Game Boy), and The Lion King (SNES, Game Boy, and NES).

In addition, Goof Troop, Disney’s The Little Mermaid, and Bonkers, among other titles, will be added in the future.

Lion King SNES was so hard as a little kid. The ostrich riding stage was killer

Oh yeah no it's kinda toned down in the FSN remaster earlier this year so it probably is toned down here too, only really doing it when needed. Mind you this is me being pretty early in the story so it might change but judging by FSN, they're probably gonna use more subtle language to get the feel across

I saw part of this rumor the other day, but didn’t see the pictures. Makes me wonder how…

They are twins. He Is clearly quite a bit older than her. I also wonder how they can both be the avatar as the lore kind of goes against that. It’s an interesting new idea and take on the cycle though.

Also she looks like Iris

Were DuckTales and Fix It Felix Jr. mentioned?
Also, wish Paon DP was there so I can play the original Windjammers and Karnov.

I assume you were already told Delicious im Dungeon? It's a fun contrast to Peakpeapeak, but does it have to be current anime? Dirty Pair is one of my personal faves
Nope, it can be any anime.

Neither were mentioned, but they did say more games were coming beyond the three released today and the three coming soon.

Well, Utena's pretty good, got a bunch of CWs though lol. Other anime popping in my head right now is Nichijou, with a side of Zombieland Saga, I still need to see season 2 of that...
