Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[TheMightyP]

The Nintendo Switch(2)....does(not) have games.

Nintendo finally caught up to modern times

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Ngl, a live action Hunchback has potential.

Remove the damn Gargoyles and it's already the superior version.

The problem.

It won't take the risks nor get away with what the 1996 film got away with.

It'll be totally watered down and Frollo will probably be given another motivation instead.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

It's bold to assume Disney would remake Hunchback at all.

The elements that are so famous about the movie are incredibly relevant to the movie's overall storyline. It's got such an overall unique tone that if it's true that Disney doesn't have the same cajones as they did back then, then I doubt they'd even attempt it.

They already announced it like 5 years ago, though.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

not me finding out the Harley Quinn series was gonna have a Teen Titans prom episode

Oops. Must've missed that.

Well, as long as it's better than the direct-to-video sequel, I'm good.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

If I had to be any RPG class, I would be a mage.

But like the ones from the Fire Emblem GBA games (and their upgraded forms) cause their animations are sick as hell and I wanna do that.

Are you more like a Pent who's cool as **** or a Nino who has great potential yet will crit a boss for 0 zero damage

Ooh, looks like my Castlevania Dominus Collection from LRG is nearly ready for shipment now.

I'm really looking forward to this one since I've heard plenty of great things about the DS games.

Oh dude, Dawn of Sorrow without the magical seals being bull**** is great, PoR is peak and Order of Ecclesia while very different, is a personal favourite of mine

 

[TMNTSSB4]

not me being dumb enough to never notice the first bit of Dark Pit’s theme being the part of Kid Icarus’s theme after the intro

 

[TheMightyP]

Pent, when he came out in that desert chapter and started wrecking **** I was all in.

But by all in, I mean raising Erk and promoting him, so he became the force of nature.

Home grown talents > prebuilt class imo except Jafar, he got hella use cause his crits were absurd

 

[Wario Bros.]

I wonder if Microsoft owns the rights to the Rare games on Game Boy Advance, Donkey Kong Country trilogy aside, as those games were originally published by THQ.

 

[SneakyLink]

Have a render for an upcoming Fortnite skin:

Spoiler

The skin name is Lara Croft (2000s)

Edit: While I’m here, the Nintendo San Francisco store opens on May 15.

Day 12: Emio The Smiling Man

This game is actually kinda funny as out of everything I'm gonna do a writeup on, this game is the least good, but do take note that it's by all means still a good time! This entire series carries itself on the more grounded vibes compared to sillier games like Ace Attorney or AI Somnium, so there's not really any wacky hijinks but just straight up investigative work lol. I found Emio to be more polished than the remakes, not just in terms of overall quality but also less bull**** with navigation as I found it to be tedious in those games, though that could also be because I expected the tedium and thus didn't mind it as much. I won't say anything in specific for the plot but the themes are pretty great. I found the ending to be quite abrupt but there's an epilogue. This epilogue is one of the coolest things Nintendo has ever done, what the hell. I also got this at launch for like 35 euros, very neat little game!

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Anyone know any good character select templates? The smash bros roster maker doesn't really work for the one I want to do.

I remember when people thought Nintendo was getting into mascot horror lol

Elite marketing strategy with that said.

Me personally? I was hoping for a full on horror game, not some Fnaf ****.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I just found out the version of Symphony of the Night I played replaced an utterly beautiful song

This queen also sang Snake Eater, maybe Konami needs to get more of this **** in their games, **** man

 

[TheMightyP]

I reminded myself on my quest on playing a game from a series that's represented from Smash. As of today, I have not done:

Bayonetta
Persona
Metal Gear
Duck Hunt (if even possible)
Fatal Fury
ARMS

And I have not beat a game from the following series:
F-Zero
Punch Out!!
Kid Icarus
Banjo
Star Fox
Xenoblade
Minecraft (I know, I know)
Tekken

Looking at it, pretty doable list.

 

[Knight Dude]

Did the rival fight in Mt. Moon and the fight with Lance and Clair with Silver. Got 2 of my team members to 70. But since Lance's strongest Dragonite is 75. I'm gonna have to grind a bit more than I thought I would have to. Funnily enough it took less effort than OG Silver to get to Level 60, but now the end game fights are crazier. The real problem is the lack of higher leveled wild Pokemon when you get to Kanto. Still since there was more to do, getting the 6th team member at the start of Kanto didn't feel like a drag too much.

Tekken should be easy to beat Arcade mode for most titles. Tekken 1 and 2 arcade versions are hard, and Jinpachi in Tekken 5 is a *****, but aside from that, you should be good.

So they just announced the next arc for Pokemon Horizons, and they’re doing something unprecedented for the anime.

The main characters grow up

Whenever I think about Emio, I think about this moment

Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Emio... honey, my pookie bear. I have loved you ever since I first laid eyes on you. The way you drive into youtube and copystrike fear into your enemies eyes. Your silky smooth touch around the trailer, and that gorgeous still frame. I would do anything for you. I wish it were possible to freeze time so I would never have to watch your game end.

Don't ask why I remember this

Insert Heresy Detected video here. After all, the characters in Pokémon have to remain the same age for 25 years because reasons.

In all seriousness, glad to see the new show breaking old trends.

I don't even remember this lol

Well, now you know something about me: I can remember silly joke posts from MONTHS ago that not even the original joke-makers can remember, but I can't remember whether or not I own my favorite movie on DVD.

 

[Shroob]

Finally Magikarp spawns in PoGO

.....and none are spawning for me.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

glad DC knows they’re unable to break up Harlivy like they could every other relationship…also a Batman/Joker bromance is oddly cool

 

[KingofPhantoms]

The entire internet whenever yet another new Poppy Playtime or FNaF clone gets released:

I actually think Mascot Horror still has potential but a lot of them really are just trying to cash in on the success of the few higher quality ones

Happy Death Day 616 Gwen

Been cleaning up my room and God no wonder the Wii U failed

This **** has at minimum 4 different cords required for it to function. It's a pain in the ass to move around

"Play it in a different room through the gamepad" said Nintendo, failing to test if you could actually play in a different room in most households without the thing disconnecting

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Had a really tasty cheeseburger followed by a couple of ribs and fries, and now I wanna talk about food.

Idk if I've ever asked this, but what's YOUR favorite food? I never was able to choose my own but I'm pretty fond of spicy chicken and things flavored like it.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

All the Emio for Smash hype, all that "I'm getting it day one", the conspiracies, all of it wiped away because it was a visual novel and the Nintoddlers can't read.

Yeah I was hoping it would be like silent hill. But a new FDC was still really cool.

As a black man, my tastes are far superior to anyone else. The stereotypes are true, we are simply better at making food. See, I like food with spice, flavor and seasoning that make youur taste buds dance. My ancestry hails from Deep South, and then infused with a Chicagoan blend to make some truly delectible food. My favorite food is beyond your comprehending, but alas, it's Pizza. I like meat-lovers but you can't beat a classic pepperoni.

Well, the 14 year olds wanted that. I was asking for Sub-Zero and ****.

Also Ryu Hayabusa. He's got 2 and half games coming out man. The Iron is as hot as it'll get, if that matters.

I have a lot of different answers

Burgers: Particularly cheeseburgers. It's my comfort food, I'm something of a burger connoisseur

Japanese food: Somehow after visiting Japan once it's become my favorite cuisine, I wish it was more widely known in my country aside from Sushi (I do like Sushi, it's the only type of seafood I enjoy but it's also overrated as hell)

Potato side dishes: Obviously french fries are the classic but I think my favorites are latke. This one is a bit of a cultural pride of mine, if I had to describe it it's basically an Ashkenazi Jewish equivalent to hash browns that we eat in Hanukkah. It does not look nearly as clean, it is a very messy looking food, but good god I love the trademarm simultaneous crispiness and softness that comes with a bite. Unfortunately I haven't had one in a while, cause I haven't spent last Hanukkah with family.

Sweets: I am a sucker for dessert food and sweet pastries. I cannot decide which is my favorite, but some contenders are ice cream, tiramisu, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and creme brulee. And that's without even getting into sweets.

There's a lot more but if I had to crown just one as my all time favorite, I think nothing really competes with a well salted, tender, perfectly cooked steak. No matter how hard you try, it is just petfection and the only reason I don't eat it more often is because a good steak is extremely expensive

Just bought my ticket for the comic convention in April.

Can't wait!

What do you mean?

The Wii U was the best selling console of the 8th generation

Either pizza or vanilla chocolate chip ice cream
