It's Steve/Banjo time, bois!

I really like the new Link's Awakening style. It gives the LoZ series a new feel.
I do not know why people are so whiny.

 

[Deleted member]

Because Zelda is supposed to be the Mature™ and Cool™ Nintendo franchise. Hell if you look back into the super early years of the internet you'd see people throwing a fit because they put that goshdarn baby game Mario in Ocarina of Time

I never even understood this train of thought honestly
The only "mature" 3D Zeldas are Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess and even then those have a loooot of silly goofy things

Because grown men are legendary and impersonating toddlers.

It's too cutesy and toy like for some. People are even saying it looks like Funko Pop, even though it doesn't resemble that at all, lol.

Spoiler: Spoilers for an old game

There are also people upset at the artstyle being cute and chibi because Link's Awakening is "dark" and "super duper sad and depressing", so it doesn't fit.

Which is completely understandable. I mean, just look at Link in the original:

SMH Nintendo dropping' the ball on remaking my edgy Zelda game about a magic dream whale.

People also feel like they were "bait and switched" with the animated opening from the Direct contrasting with the gameplay.

Now that, I can understand. That opening cutscene looked awesome.

This is fake, because if this were the case, then why are only two users that we know posting about it?
One of them was your friend, too.

Zelda is a very mature game. After all, little kids can’t handle Deku Nuts.

I have 8 spirits left until I have them all.

IDK this seems mildly fake
Like if Nintendo characters were really on the dashboard then they would be things like the official Mario renders like this

And not just random Smash rips

Also it would be making a really big stir on the internet and not just a couple tweets

Even the spirits you have left are perfectly balanced...

As all things should be.

My only problem with the Awakening trailer was that the initial beautiful hand drawn animation subverted expectations too much, essentially making most first impressions negative with the actual game's styling.

I'm pretty certain the game itself will look fine and will be very fun, but the trailer could have been done much better.
Right now I just feel a bit odd about it, because the previous top-down "remake" attempt had the ingame graphics model more akin to the official art (A Link Between Worlds), and this time around the official art couldn't be further from what we'll see most of the time.

I guess it's, tl;dr, subverting expectations the wrong way and I feel it makes the game's visual identity a bit confusing.

I guess I can kind of understand that, but TBH this'll have to be a to each their own situation. I personally don't feel like I was misled at all during that sequence, I simply thought they were showing an ingame cutscene for the opening, not necessarily what gameplay was going to look like.

I feel like LA Remake's style updates and transitions the sprites of the original into 3D super well.

there is no way that's real. Literally look at Iris. She's poorly cropped out of an anime episode

Let us know when you only have 6 left

I love how you specify six, and not seven.

That would be unbalanced, after all.

That’s one thing that is making me doubt it. It’s very odd.

He didn’t ask me to put the post here. I just found it interesting. I don’t even kn9w h8m that well.

I was literally just on my XBox playing Bloodstained, I think I would've seen this if it was real.

So uh...yeah. Peach, Isabelle, Lucina, AND Inkling are all in the Dashboard background.

This is weird as hell. That’s actually real.

My trashy IPad typing aside, I don’t get this joke. Can you explain it to me?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

This is literally the same case as the fake tweet of Chris Sabat using homophobic slurs, you'd think it'd get a ****ton more attention than just a tweet/video from some random person on the internet

wait hol' up really? I'm asking my friend with an Xbone to check rn

Just clarification I don’t think it’s real. I just thought it was interesting. Could be easily faked.

Yeah I know little to none about Homestuck.

Wait seriously? Share a picture.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

For base game sure, but if she’s gonna be a DLC character (likely have to be brought considering she’s from a different company) and I think there has to be at least a little something more than just buying another Pac-Man will different animations.

I’m only assuming her as a base game character. She’d be a wasted slot for dlc as an echo (besides...another Pit echo would be preferred by all)

Honestly, if Smash can't use Ken Sugimori's (and whatever artists GF has that imitate his artstyle) Pokemon art, I can see it being the same deal for Microsoft.

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

I’m telling you, i’m not lying. I was suspicious of it, so considering I have all three consoles I figured I would check.

Here it is:

It’s a page for Women’s History Month, so there’s no need to use Pokémon unless they used Leaf. These are more obviously female (not up to discretion or debate) characters, so it totally makes sense.

We’ll have to keep an eye out on the future to see if bigger characters show up.
