I was surprised how good my Robin amiibo looked when I got it, I'm so glad it doesn't have morth face.
Aw, c'mon:troll: That was only a prototype, not how the actual amiibo turned out. Still funny as hell.
Mind, most 'anime-like' before wave 4 still turned out strange, particulary their face.

Yeah, I agree on Robin. I'd say he's one of the best looking amiibo of wave 4, imo, particulary when you think that lot of things could go wrong with such a detailed amiibo.

Now.... Hoshido or Nohr?

I'm taking into account the fact that Robin is a very detailed charater, and painting an 'anime-like' face on such a small figurine can't be easy. So, it had more chances to look derpy.
Now, if we disregard that, Pac-man looks more loyal to his image and stunning, too, but honestly, if Nintendo ****ed up his amiibo, I wouldn't know what to think, since he shouldn't have any reason to be screwed upon in the first place.

Do you think Snake might be announced on the 14th? Or Wolf?
One of them Goddamn better!


In all seriousness, I'm expecting Wolf and Roy on the 14th. One to open, one to close. I want to expect Snake and Ryu during the live event, but I don't. It's just a dream at the moment.

I know you pain man. I actually hope Wolf, Roy and Young Link are announced on the 14th as it sort of makes sense.

The 3 of them are clones of characters that are already in game and if they were add, the would make a 3rd version of each of those characters. Eh? Eh?

*sigh*

I really don't expect Young Link to be announced, probable Wolf, but I can dream.

I think Young Link is pretty difficult, and I'm still on the fence about Roy, music files or not.
Wolf has good chances, though. He is, at the very least, a popular character on the ballot and one Sakurai wouldn't need to put much work into, anyway.

Wolf also has the "Lucas Argument" as one of his biggest advantages.

Hey @ Raziek Raziek :
https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHkKcP8G3g

In other news, @ Raziek Raziek and I just had an enjoyable splat fest along with Hackosaurus. Good times and bad times were had.

Also, @ Raziek Raziek was that Ryker guy a friend of yours and/or Hack's? Just wondering because he popped in and out a couple of times.

Also, Kelp Dome is fun. Can't wait for the night versions soon.

Ryker, Gova, and Jay are all my friends as well.

Also, for the record, if I get near you while wearing my football helmet, there is a 95% chance I'm yelling "JOHN MADDEN" every time I come out of Squid form!

Yeah, Young Link is a hard case. With Roy, the thing that annoys me the most is that some people are think he is in because of the music files when those really don't mean to much. I agree one Wolf though.

IT'S TIME TO INK THE SCALES!!

The R.S.T is now functional! Come join the Robin Splatoon Team (link above) to bring the Awesomeness of Robin to battlefields of Inkopolis!

If anyone has some Photoshop-Fu or Gimp-Fu and can make some awesome art assets that would be splatastic!

I'm pulling for Wolf honestly. Snake I'm not to sure about, but I think Wolf's chances are pretty solid.

In the back of my head though I'm expecting Nintendo to announce someone completely out of the blue. The only reason I say that is because so far they've been very "safe" with DLC characters, bringing back :4mewtwo:and:4lucas:, two fan favorite returning characters. Plus Smash 4 had some pretty out of nowhere characters (:4duckhunt::4wiifit:) so I have a (small) inkling (lol) that Nintendo's gonna throw a curve ball our way.

Link is actually pretty good in Smash4. A lot of his issues from Brawl were removed. He's pretty good this time around.

I want to Master the Aerospray RG (or whichever one has the Inkstrike) so I can do this: (Note: Movie is started at a time stamp)
Every time I use Inkstrike.
Now that you mention it, that would be so sick to have 4 Inkstrikes on your team, and then just let all 4 of them go at the same time in the close seconds of the match.

Edit: Does anyone know what song that is that plays at the end during the Illuminati thing?

I've been on fire in Splatoon today. I first went into Ranked, where my first the enemy team captured the base, but I quickly intercepted and took out two of their team members. The rest of my team held down the zone while I was in charge of preventing any advances from the enemy. I took out 5 other squidlings before they took me out. I don't think I've ever been more on point in a game of Splatoon ever.
Hell yeah, homie. Clean 'em up.

Had me a good time too. Got 13 kills in one Port match this morning...with an Aerospray RG. Ink mines, yo.

I wish Amiibos weren't so rare. I don't really have the stamina to hunt them down or look up all the release dates and watch for pre-orders lol. You'd think with how other Amiibos sold out, Nintendo would know what to supply. Makes me wonder if they're making them rare on purpose ;-;
No.

Not Nintendo.

They'd never make anything rare on purpose.

Never.

So what's going with y'al---oh no splatoon.

Aha. Ahaha.

Noooooo.

Oh god.

Oh god I have never wanted to wear the football helmet in my life until this very moment.

I gotta do that.

We have a what.

Count me in.

My track record's been spotty recently but I can also probably GIMP-Fu something up at some point.

I'm expecting Wolf at this point for the reveal too. I doubt Roy will make a comeback with all the other sword-wielding heroes in Smash4. Snake? Hmm maybe, probably not as likely as Wolf, but still possible. Anyone know when the voting character will be added in? Or is that way down the list, idk even.

Well, go and sign up and I'll confirm you ASAP. @Moydow, @ Raziek Raziek and @ Pacack Pacack are already members.

The more the better. After today, it's probably only a matter of time before the Zelda people take umbrage to Our existence and make their own.

Homie, you know Hyrule Warriors is coming to 3DS right? Expect the same thing with Splatoon.
Because I am right.

Sometimes I wonder if you're kidding. Today is one of those days.

I saw the Hyrule Warriors bit. Still don't think it's wise, but..we'll see? It didn't use the triggers extensively enough that it would fail outright, I suppose.

Splatoon would have to rearrange its whole control scheme, though. Or provide some kind of peripheral grip that modified a New 3DS to have functional back triggers instead of shoulder buttons, which would be awesome for everyone.

Hint ****ing hint, Nintendo.

http://smashboards.com/threads/character-competitive-impressions.367669/page-700#post-19321282

tbh I wouldn't be taking any tier lists seriously this early in the metagame
To be honest I don't know if I'd take that whole thread seriously at this point. Heard far too many horror stories.

Well, go and sign up and I'll confirm you ASAP.
It took me a minute to realize that there was in fact such a button.

I've clicked it now.

Dammit Red, when did you learn Mind Reader? ._.
Hyrule Warriors on 3DS looks pretty cool for what it is, even if I see hate lol.
New 3DS would work well for Splatoon, though; johns got nothing on me. You can just pull a Mario Kart 7 and have the map/players thingy whenever you touch the bottom screen....
.... I guess.

Move Tutor, yo.

Splatoon would have a lot to overcome as a handheld, however, because its use of the triggers is paramount. Using L/R or ZL/ZR sparingly on the 3DS is one thing, but holding them down for three minutes straight would quickly be painful for any more than a round or two. As such, we'd need either a peripheral such as the one I described above, or a full button remap, which is more difficult when all the buttons actually do things.

See if you'd join us you'd know things like this. :troll:

Hyrule Warriors, well, at least it doesn't need a remap as badly. Most of the primary game functions are already mapped to ABXY. It might be able to get by.

You'd have all in one system tho, as opposed to seeing the TV screen, GamePad and um. All of the above.

You know though, real talk, I would be all for a map integration. That would actually be pretty useful all round.

Also you quoted my unedited bit, homie. Gotta work on your Agility. :troll:

Sorta surprised I missed this earlier. A bit. Just a bit.

Aerospray RG does have Inkstrike. Splattershot Pro also does if that's more your thing. Those are the big two off the top of my head, though there's no doubt some charger and roller weapons I've missed.

The song is the X-Files theme. Seems slightly remixed here.

I'll be around allllllllll day tomorrow if people would like to play, especially anyone who wants some MU experience against :4link:, specifically (and yes I realize I'm bragging) a :4link: that knows what he's doing quite well.

I'll also be up for some :4ganondorf: matches, I'd like to try the terribad MU with Dropkick and Dark Fists and see how that goes.

@ the king of murder the king of murder , you said you were a :4ganondorf: player yes?

Would you be up for some dittos tomorrow?
I co main Ganon with Ike and Robin, yeah.

Buuuuut, I only have the 3ds so if you would be ok with that....
