The idea of Disney being scared of anything is laughable

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Hey could you guys imagine a Smash Cinematic Universe

I personally would prefer an anime instead. In terms of movies I'd rather Nintendo adaptations be separated.

If you ask me Dinsey should out Nintendo.

And they Disney gets bought by Microsoft.

Who then gets bought out by Amazon.

Which then I buy (I have 700 trillion dollars)

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I'm 99% sure that a Multibillion dollar company isn't scared of another Multibillion dollar company that they barely compete with.

Hasn't Disney been as of late losing tons of money notably Strange World bombing bad. Also Lightyear and how they're gonna be doing a Toy Story 5 that no one even asked for?

Meanwhile DreamWorks had been nailing it as of late at least in terms of quality. **** in Boots: The Last Wish and The Bad Guys.

I am sure Disney could make it through this. It is not going to die because of those things, as it takes much more than that to put down a big company like Disney.

 

[Schnee117]

Smash fans realize that most of these franchises would not make very successful movies challenge

Xeno fans when the movies gets bad reviews (the reviewers savaged the scene where the 500 year old sleep walks into bed with the 15 year old and found the Nopon annoying)

They are losing money, but it was not because of their movies.

External factors (and there was a huge one) did a huge number on Disney.

Disney isn’t afraid of anything, having one off year means nothing in the grand scheme. Just wait until their next big princess flick, they’ll be on top of the world again.

And you can’t count on Dreamworks to be reliable. For every HTTYD they make, they also make a Boss Baby. Yes Last Wish was great but now they’re coming out with Ruby Gilman and Trolls 3, neither of which look like anything special.

And Mario is doing great because its one of the most recognizeable IPs in existence that’s finally getting a solid animated family movie. That’s really all there is to it.

This isn’t some grand shake up in the industry. Give it a year, Disney will launch another massive musical success, Dreamworks will have another string of weirdness before they come out with another masterpiece. This is business as usual.

And, I am sure it won’t be enough to put them down for good. Even if it does, it would take a while to do so in Disney’s case, right?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

The day Disney falls is the day we celebrate.

Too bad that'll never happen...

Somebody pick a new topic my tonsils are too removed for this ****

???: Hello, my name is-
???: …
Ralsei: My name is Ralsei. sniff
Ralsei: I’m driving a Mercedes-Benz.
Ralsei: These are my friends. I’m a baa.
Ralsei: . . .

Mercedes-Benz: My name is Mercedes-Benz.
Susie: What’s your name, kid?
Mercedes-Benz: Uh, Mercedes-Benz.

Um, correction; don’t you mean waffles?

I mean, I like pancakes, but I thought it was gonna be waffles.

French toast clears both

It probably won't, but Ron has been relentless on the attack, and has power to actually make a financial impact on them. And Disney sided with this him and it embroiled them in deep ****, so now they're pushing back against him and now there in deep **** again. Kinda sad to see ngl.

There's also COVID but they bounced back from that.

 

[TheCJBrine]

My favorite is either pumpkin or red velvet, but regular pancakes are pretty great too. I like mine with peanut butter.

Waffles are cooler though tbh.

 

[TheMightyP]

Waffles are better. Final answer

Now that pancakes, waffles and French toast have all been mentioned, I am obligated to post this.

A lot of the dead Nintendo franchises that fans clamor for were pretty mid.

I’m not very fond of the Xenoblade series.

I gave it a shot. I don’t hate it or anything, and I’m glad that such a niche franchise has been getting so much content recently. I wouldn’t want it to be one of those games with a starving fanbase who goes ignored for decades.

But uhhh I don’t really care for it

 

[TheMightyP]

I'll build off this one with a take of my own:

The vast majority of the third parties in Smash are better than the vast majority of 1st parties in Smash.

Metroid Dread was mid because the EMMIs are terribly designed and ruin an otherwise generally good game.
There's also the soundtrack being ass and the environments being boring but they're not huge issues (or hot takes™)

Implying Ice Climbers and Gyromite isn’t gaming kino

Honestly you're not wrong. Had Ultimate not been built upon nostalgia and fan demand for the most part, you honestly could have taken a chainsaw to like, half the roster.

 

[Noipoi]

It is weird how there’s never been a big budget Mickey Mouse movie.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

It is weird how there’s never been a big budget Mickey Mouse movie.

The closest thing to that is Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Muskateers.

And even that was a direct to video film, IIRC.

 

[Shroob]

I'll toss one.


Of the original 12, only 8 would get into Smash in today's day and age.


Mario
Luigi
DK
Link
Pikachu
Yoshi
Kirby
Samus


And I'll only throw Samus in there because Nintendo seems okay with Metroid being let out of its prison cell lately.


Ness?
Jigglypuff?
Fox?
Captain Falcon?

The **** are you guys doing here.

I’m convinced that certain characters haven’t been tossed in the incinerator purely because they’re Smash mainstays.

Even when the next game Thanos’ half the roster, you can bet that Fox, Ness, and Falcon will still be around.

That's a funny way to say Jigglypuff.


She's survived being cut from Brawl.



The Puff won't be stuff'd.

Samus no longer being punished for Other M scaring Nintendo…that and because they knew John Cena would hit his 5 Moves of Doom on them if she didn’t get more content

So lets reflect back to when Sora was revealed.

What are everyone's overall thoughts and opinions on Ultimate's roster as a whole in terms of its characters and diversity? How would you personally rate it and the newcomers?

Weird thing is I grew up with Nintendo, I barely played a thIrd party before Smash 4 and it was Sonic, Pac-Man, Minecraft, and the first levels of Kingdom Hearts 1. Mega Man was the first one I played outaide of those, and that was after Smash 4.

So my nostalgia is actually not playing a factor in me saying that.

Edit: Ik that wasn't your point but I wanted to get that out

How dare you ask me to relive Ultimate speculation

I guess I'll play Super Mario Maker 2's story mode while I wait for the next mainline 2D Mario platformer.
