Social Ultimate Social Thread: Under Construction. Be Back Soon!

GUYS

So the TL:DR. Bad news is they literally said they're basically restarting the game from scratch because they were not satisfied with how it turned out.

Good news is, Retro is developing/has a hand in it now.

That's a big oof, though.

 

[SmVshTube Invitational]

Lowkey I didn’t even know how old that message was

Worth it tho

Here's a game, pick 3 characters to add in Smash, a male, a female and an animal/non humanoid/monster character. Here's mine:

- Male: Sora from Kingdom Hearts
- Female: Marisa Kirisame from Touhou
- Non Human: Slime from Dragon Quest

Wait, do the male and female characters have to be Human?

Better a good game late than a bad game soon.

The same team that produced the original Metroid Prime? This game is gonna be a masterpiece, regardless of how long it takes to make. I just got even more hyped now.

Ha! Jokes on you, I'm an adult! I don't have to worry about classes so I can do adult stuff, like go on a video game forum to proselytize a fictional green dinosaur designed for kids.

That's what grown-ups do!!!

 

[Fenriraga]

I feel like that Prime 4 update kinda shoots down the possibility of a Direct soon. I feel like this would have been saved for something like that, and announcing one soon after this announcement would be... Odd.

 

[Masked Marshmallow]

At least humanoid. They can be animal/monster like with human characteristics. The Non-Human part is for things that aren't human at all.

 

[Deleted member]

GUYS

Oh man. That....That hurts to hear this game is being delayed even more. But, the fact the Nintendo is getting Retro back for MP4 give me confidence that they'll be able to do something good with it.

I'll guess I'll have to wait until I'm 24 or something for this game to be released. Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha....

Does a personality count as a Human characteristic
Look I just want to know where to put Zoe okay

 

[Gyrom8]

Was kind of hoping that Retro was gonna do some non Prime-related stuff but sometimes you just gotta bring in the A-Team I guess

Still, wonder what this means for that yet-to-be seen StarFox racing game (if it even exists) and any other projects Retro was working on before they were called in to MP4

That is such a funny joke that I 100% get.
*looks up proselytize*
Yep, makes sense.

Yu Narukami from Persona 4
Aegis from Persona 3
Jack Frost from Megami Tensei

...okay, if I have to be serious:
Sora, Lara Croft and Amaterasu

 

[Deleted member]

Real talk, when I saw that MP4 message, I was hella worried they were going to cancel the game. Thank God.

Seems I missed a couple good topics but I guess I’ll contribute.

My friend just brought up this thought in our group chat and now I’m curious. How much alike is everyone and their mains on a scale of ‘exactly the same’ to ‘polar opposite’?

: Aside from enjoying a bit of dark humor once in a while, I’m pretty much the opposite of this guy.
: Well, I do dislike people in general. But in all seriousness, I have always been sort of a loner and am still trying to find my place in life.

So I have a very pressing question for everyone. Like super important and super pressing. Your answer may or may not reflect not only the future of the series but possibly the entire site. It’s so important that im taking the time to stress to you how important it is! Drop everything you’re doing and heed to my query.....









....if each Smash character had a Mortal Kombat fatality, what would they be? Please be as descriptively gory as you can be. Within the confines of the site rules and crap Meat chunks and everything.

Spoiler

This is just Ridley’s side-b but as a fatality. Ridley, turns his opponent around so their back faces him. He then grabs the opponent by the back of the head and drags the opponent, leaving a trail of blood and gore. Ridley then jumps and releases the opponent into the air (similar to jump canceling his side b) with their flesh and bit of the skull scrapped off, showing the skeleton underneath. The brutalized opponent lands as “Fatality” shows on the screen.

Inb4 Metroid Prime 4 still comes out before the FF7 remake.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Gutted about Prime 4, but at least they were direct and honest with us. Pikmin fans don't even know the ****'s going on with their new game.

Put her in the Non-Human section. Here's examples of what fits each section:
Male: Sora, Shadow, Geno, Magnus, Cuphead, etc.
Female: Shantae, Krystal, Lara Croft, Susie from Kirby, etc.
Non-Human: Slime, Bandana Waddle Dee, Decidueye, etc. Anything that's not human physically or just a straight up beast.

I’m a bit late, but I can imagine Olimar’s Pikmin beating them to death, carrying the fighter over to an Onion, it sucking them up, and then they turn into Pikmin. Mild, but disturbing

In about a week, quickplay will become a garden. It will be marvelous and terrible.

Welp, in that case, time to whip out the professional lawnmowers.

*Lowkey hopes for surprise Deku Baba echo confirmation because that would be a glorious sight to behold....*

whatever happend to that FF7 Remake anyway

It died as soon as we got a release date for KH3
Speaking of which, isn't KH3 out today?

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

So, Piranha Plant should come out in February...

Anyone got some Round-Up, or other weed killers?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

It really sucks NA has to wait 4 days after the Japanese relese for KH3 and apparently to Nomura, that a " simultaneous release"

4 days after JP is simultaneous

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Oof about Metroid Prime. I’ve never played, but one of my coworkers is a huge Metroid fan.

I wondered why we hadn’t heard anything for a while.

Here's a game, pick 3 characters to add in Smash, a male, a female and an animal/non humanoid/monster character. Here's mine:

- Male: Sora from Kingdom Hearts
- Female: Marisa Kirisame from Touhou
- Non Human: Slime from Dragon Quest

Male: Dovahkiin (despite I’d want him to pull a Robin and have 4 male and 4 female costumes)
Female: Urbosa
Animal: Tails

Weed killer? Villager confirmed Piranha Plant counterpick.

JP is, not NA. we get in 4 days after them

I cant ****ing wait

 

[Fenriraga]

Not to mention Nomura says he might not do it anymore after the KH3 Leak.

Gee, when we Americans have to avoid spoilers for a KH for 6 months after Japan gets it it's fine, even longer for Europe, but when JAPAN has a risk of getting spoiled it might be time to step back and not do Worldwide releases, oh gosh or darn. Boo hoo.

Can smell that bias from across the sea, Nomura.

Im 100% sure he wont do it. If he wants money, he wont do it

Well, Retro is now developing Metroid Prime 4.

Pretty much, we ain't getting the game this year, or probably next.

It wont ever come on switch so your gonna have to blow out that flame now

[papagenos]

ouch... metroid prime 4 delayed. im still over here waiting on pikmin 4.

I wonder if thats why we havent gotten a january direct? maybe they were deciding what to do about showing us what they have for prime 4 and decided its best not to half-ass some trailer they knew wouldnt represent the final product at all.

 

[Gyrom8]

Pikmin 4 then Prime 4 ...

... is 4 going to become a cursed number for Nintendo like 3 is for Valve?

ROB grabs his victim and starts burning their face with his laser vision. He then takes out a sharpened gyro and slowly runs it up their body, slicing them open. Finally, ROB side b's into them, sending body chunks and viscera flying across the screen.
