Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Wario Bros.]

We are so happy together for enjoying Smash Bros for 30 years. Casual and competitive, it all originates to the fantasy of bringing characters of a dream matchup while entering the spotlight.

To this day that is still my most favorite video game commercial of all time.


My very first exposure to Smash was the teaser commercial

8 year old me thought that was so awesome.

Well, it's easier to just boot up and play games on your Switch rather than bothering to download roms and mod them - especially if you have a potato PC like mine.

Using a starchy root vegetable for your computing needs is definitely a hinderance, but it’s a lot easier than you’ed think to get these things up and running. I used to think it was “too complicated” before I actually tried to do it and discovered that it’s just as easy as downloading stuff from the eshop.

Ok. Where’s the new ultimate content?

SNAKE LOOK! ULTIMATE DELUXE!

SNAKE LOOK! ULTIMATE DELUXE!

I know this meme. You can’t get me.

 

[Noipoi]

The acronym for Kirby: Right Back At Ya is KRBAY.

I choose to believe this was intentional.

That’s specifically how dub Dedede pronounces it, so I believe it.

I think you're genuinely not thinking about kids that have access to the Nintendo Switch Online server. An 8-10 year old is not gonna know how to use emulators to play Smash Remix.

You underestimate kids and are really overblowing how complicated using an emulator is. It really is drag and drop.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Happy Smashiversary! Crazy to believe this franchise has been a part of Nintendo history for as long as it has been, but here's hoping people continue to find joy in this series!

The fact that Palworld is about to surpass ****ing Counter Strike 2 of all games in terms of player numbers is actually insane to me, regardless of my own opinions on the game

 

[TheMightyP]

You underestimate kids and are really overblowing how complicated using an emulator is. It really is drag and drop.

You also underestimate how many 8-10 year olds don't have a computer of their own and don't just use their family's ipad which sucks in terms of emulation.

That is true. That’s something that’s different from when I was a kid. When I was a kid we had the big family computer in the computer/cat room. I have to readjust that mental framework.

started Naruto Shipudden…did not expect to have heard rap…I dig it tho

 

[SnakeFighter64]

You know something that would be nice? For dlc development to have like... a percent completion bar on the games website that the devs updated periodically. That way we'd have an idea how close everything was to being finished without anything specific having to be said about what's actually being done and without having to attach specific dates.

I know you're all gonna tell me why this is a bad idea and why keeping everything more secret than the nuclear launch codes is the only way to do things but IDK man I get really antsy and I'd just like to know a little bit more than nothing.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I'm still uncertain if Nintendo has any real plans to celebrate Smash's 25th anniversary beyond the Ultimate spirit events but I can see a Smash 64 port to Switch as the minimum.

 

[Mushroomguy12]

Happy 25th Anniversary to Smash 64 and the Smash series as a whole!

I found the most Noipoi meme ever made.

It’s like they read my mind

I just went down memory lane and rediscovered some old ideas I kicked around for Splatoon 4.

How old? This was back way early into Splatoon 3's own hypecycle. Deep Cut hadn't even been revealed yet.

A few ideas I had were:

• The babbly Banjo-Kazooie speak was eschewed in favor of full voice acting. For example, Callie was voiced by Emily Blunt and Marie was voiced by Anna Kendrick
• I came up with a whole new playable species known as Waterdragons. They played very differently from the Inklings and Octolings, being able to glide and swim, and, instead of using weapons, spray an infinite amount of ink from their mouths and use different gear set-ups to help add to their ink breath effectiveness
• The idols this time were a pair of Octoling brothers modeled on twenty one pilots
• The central story featured the new agent character working with the idols and a brand new Waterdragon character to destroy an Octarian megacorporation that used Inklings as slaves. Marie and the Waterdragon character ended up falling in love. Also the main villain was a blue-ringed octopus Octoling. Voiced by Grey DeLisle.
• I even gave the Squid Sisters their own secret story mode about a mission they went on as Agents 1 and 2
• Also the DLC story mode detailed the Waterdragon lore and the main antagonist was a DEATH CULT ran by a misanthropic Inkling...VOICED BY THE LEAD SINGER OF AVENGED SEVENFOLD

I might work on these again cuz I did have a fun time with them

 

[Wario Bros.]

Despite the 2019 Hazbin Hotel pilot being non-canon, it complements the series far too well.

Bruh I am going insane, I'm watching Breaking Bad for the first time after being annoyed at all the memes and **** but oh my god, this really is that good?!?

The Switch/Steam indie game Super Kiwi 64 is getting a free update Friday, including a new campaign and other new features.

Super Kiwi 64 is a very short retro inspired collect-a-thon but it's not bad being only $3.

I'm almost upset that people sold this show wrong to me, like, I thought Walter White was supposed to be a sympathetic character who simply started this mess to give his family money after the cancer diagnosis but nah he just ruins his life to feel like a big man while he still can, ****ing hell

 

[Mushroomguy12]

For the anniversary of the series, they should bring back Super Smash Bros Slamfest like they did with Nintendo World Championships.

They should post the original since it’s lost media currently. I’m sure Nintendo has it locked away somewhere as they are always pretty on point with preserving things.

Today I finished rewatching the One Piece Live-Action show. Even better the second time.

I can't stop thinking about how season 2 is going to be Alabasta and I cannot wait

I now know that I am unable to evolve Inkay in Pokémon Scarlet.

The A button on the only Joy-Cons that I have with gyro does not work, so navigating the menus is not possible.

Damn it.

Can't you just play in handheld and hold it upside down? That's how I did it.

I was in handheld mode. I even tried a left gyro Joy-Con and a right non-gyro one with no luck.

Not that I am in a hurry for it, I just have to ask...

How early next month do you all think the next Nintendo Direct will come?

Sometime in the first two weeks if I had to guess.

Sounds good enough to me, honestly.

I'm gonna be bold and say February 7th. If not then, definitely the 14th.
