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

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

The fact that the Ace Attorney series still has literally 0 representation in the Smash universe is an utter crime. Like, seriously, all their new games come out solely on Nintendo consoles, and any deviation from Nintendo is just re-releases of old games on other hardware.

And it has literally nothing to its name in Smash.

So Layton and Phoenix are literally in the same boat
PLvAA ending spoiler who cares, no ones gonna play it

 

[Icedragonadam]

So wait, what is the rumored characters right now from that 5ch "leaker"

Is it still Joker, Erdrick, Tales Character(Velvet), Nakoruru, and Leon/Chris/Jill, plus Minecraft content?

 

[Will]

...but he ain't a 4th Party as that term is illegitimate.

at least someone has it right

Unrelated, but remember when the Grinch Hoax came around and people didn't believe influencers that said it was fake? I'm kinda glad to see that happen with Google Stadia.

I'm utterly shocked at what specific influencers and how many of them are saying that "this will kill PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo". For being a massive techie, I'm surprised MKBHD actually is willing to put stake into this. I think the only people who're on the right side of history are Colin Moriarty and, coincidentally enough, Spawn Wave.

Anything totally dependent on streaming simply cannot compete in the modern market. It’s too soon: Infrastructure isn’t remotely there.
Also, Stadia isn't releasing in Australia, which is coincidentally, a big portion of the world. ...Yikes.

honestly bring layton home

but that's also phoenix's home?

Could a character seeming like a shoe-in for a future Smash title have hurt their number of votes in the ballot? Like of course Inkling is popular, but they seemed like such a lock for the next game that people might not have bothered voting for them and channeled their efforts elsewhere

Splatoon was released during the ballot, its hard to not imagine people who voted after its release considering the idea was that it was for Smash 4 DLC to a lot of people.

I did, was enjoyable.

 

[PsySmasher]

Should've been Narmaya.

Someone actually knows the name of the character in my Granblue profile pic (minus Alexiel who I had because of suggestions)?

That’s kinda surprising to me.

Wanted to verify this but the leaker later posted the supposed ballot results, I more or less got the idea that he posted the ballot results and at least until Ridley they are ordered. Am I not making a stupid mistake or assumption here?

Hmm... so the only 2 characters that aren’t in Smash in any shape or form from the supposed ordered list are Sora and Phoenix Wright.

Sora is under Square... which could be a problem regarding Smash content, but Phoenix could be an interesting choice.

Not one I’m rooting for, but I’d definitely take it over Erdrick or Steve.

lol the fact that it's just looks like a fancy Google Play Store is the funniest part

have fun playing pocket camp on the big screen if they'll even allow it

ok so bring both phoenix and layton home idk

 

[KarneraMythos]

So what exactly is it that we're discussing right now? Too lazy to search for the full context. All I know is that there is a rumor about a ballot/list. Is this related to what Nintendo presented to Sakurai? Or is it the very-dated Smash Ballot from all the way back in 4?

 

[Will]

ok so bring both phoenix and layton home idk

idk man, phoenix wright had some M Rated games

and you know they'll never let any M Rated characters in the game, as so I'm told by the local Banjo Kazooie enthusiast

A text leak on 5ch supposedly leaking the ballot results and the rest of the characters

Some text leak about the ballot results, and now we're just talking about it if it's hypothetically true. Now it's just evolving into discussions of character popularity, and if this character has a larger/smaller following than most though. It is about the Smash 4 ballot, yes.

Please bring Layton home. They already sailed on their ship together

Thank you Yoshi Discord...

Whenever people say "X is gonna kill Y" it rarely ever ends up actually happening. Remember all the WoW killers? Or the TF2 killers? Or, even more recently, how Artifact was supposed to kill Hearthstone?
And then this happened to Artifact?

I'm just surprised that they didn't try this idea in Japan or Korea first, considering they have quite good online infrastructure and a few games there are cloud based.

If anything, I think the funniest part is all the influencers trying to sugarcoat Stadia are getting BTFO'd by everybody bringing up the point of the huge downsides of a "all digital console", bringing up stuff like P.T. and Scott Pilgrim: The Video Game.

This **** is why people still buy physical copies, man.

Remember when the Wii U was gonna kill the PS4 and Xbox One with Mario Kart 8 and Smash all in the same year?

 

[staindgrey]

Actually, since Codename S.T.E.A.M.

Yeah, now you remembered that game existed.

But in all seriousness, I think there was Chibi-Robo, which got murdered by its own creators, but I can't think of any notable new IPs.

Plus, Splatoon's WAY, WAAAAAY more popular than Pikmin ever since it's inception.

No I know that game exists. But I swear that came out after Splatoon.

 

[Will]

This **** is why people still buy physical copies, man.

Even then, it's still changing.

You can obviously get physical copies, but nowadays some are changing it to fancy boxes with a download code on the inside.

 

[Noipoi]

Remember when the Wii U was gonna kill the PS4 and Xbox One with Mario Kart 8 and Smash all in the same year?

I'm so glad I was like, 11 when the Wii U was a thing. I didn't know it was failing, I was just a kid playing my Nintendo games.

 

[Deleted member]

No I know that game exists. But I swear that came out after Splatoon.

It came out a couple months before iirc

 

[Will]

Chibi-Robo's death is super depressing.

That was a fine ass gamecube game and you could not tell me otherwise.

 

[TheMightyP]

No I know that game exists. But I swear that came out after Splatoon.

STEAM came out in March, Splatoon came out in May, so just 2 months.

 

[Will]

imma be honest

i didnt even know the wii u was a thing until smash 4 was announced

did anything really change

 

[Alternis]

After joking about all the activity on the thread, I return to see activity born of an actual happening. That's coincidence, not irony, btw.

So a new 5chan leak has emerged, and it claims to know the remaining DLC. I've been skimming so far, so is this credible in any way, or is it just discussion fodder?

Huh, interesting... Well at the least, I spotted characters and franchises that I'd love to see included in the Fighter's Pass, though I'm unsure myself if that has any impact on Nintendo's choices. Fate's chances of having playable representation through Arturia would go up a ton if true.

It feels so weird seeing Dante shot down though.

though I'm really not trying to be harsh so forgive this side of my humor if anyone's saying the other consoles are dead.

I still believe Geno was top 20 in the Ballot and maybe top 15 based off of personal experience, I was in no way as deep into Gaming Culture as I am now back then to the point that I didn't even know Ridley was popular yet I knew who Geno was and that he was popular.

Same with my friend group except they were even less into Gaming Culture at the time even now they're still not as deep into it as I am yet one of them really wants Geno while the other is okay with Geno but both have played SMRPG.

We were complete idiots when it came to Gaming Culture yet we knew of Geno and his Popularity. Back then I didn't even know who Roy, Lucas AND Bayonetta were yet I knew of Geno. Bayo is incredibly popular and I still did not know who she was.

Even outside of that the Geno fanbase were going all in for Geno at the time and the Fanbase is around the same heights of Ridley/K. Rool so I have faith in them doing good, I believe Geno was Top 20 and Top 25 at the very least.

Just discussion fodder I think: unless I missed something, I think it's 'dude, trust me' tier-level of credibility
