I already said this, but I agree with the notion that there are far more interesting third parties than first parties.
I would rather take unique, creative fighters like Sora, Steve and Sans and any other cool third parties I have not named than dull first party picks like Geno, Banjo and Kazooie and Isaac.

Steve and Master Chief are more interesting than Banjo and Kazooie, Isaac has less personality than Link, and I just do not get the appeal of Geno.


Edit: Banjo and Geno are not first parties, but still. They are wanted, but I can not find the interest in them.

King K. Rool will never be in Smash Bros. People just need to give up already because it's never happening.

says the k.rool main of course
Let me just say that I have been a big King K. Rool for Smash supporter. I believe there's enough to make him into a playable character. I believe that he's well-received by fans who have played the Donkey Kong series - not necessarily hardcore fans only. He has the "ingredients" necessary to be a Smash character... except that the producers of new and current Donkey Kong games do not like him at all.

King K. Rool has been tossed away by Retro Studios as the main series villain. Why? I don't have the exact answer, but I could probably assume it's because they do not want to be thought of as a brainless company that's just doing the job Rare Ltd. can't legally do. They probably want to try and inject fresh characters into the series and establish a main villain of their own.

So until Rare Ltd. decides to return to Nintendo, you'll not only likely never see King K. Rool as the main villain in a Donkey Kong video game again, but you'll never see King K. Rool as a playable Smash character. Deal with it, like I have.

Y-You'll leave me?
lol yeah

Space was one of our good fellows, I 'member. I still talk to him. But back then I, or rather, my predecessor, often posted about his boredom or what was up, so when the mods came in and said that (posting one-off status messages on these threads) wasn't okay, he agreed to a change. I wonder how that went.
its like a transformation

things werent the same ever again

space stranger's trail of tears

Everyone in the Waluigi community harassed and death threatened Sakurai.
It's funny everyone remembers this but casually sweeps the Ridley equivalent from Smash 4 under the rug.

To be more specific,

they want an ad, for an ad being added to an ad...

You get what I'm saying?

Bait Incorrect statements? "How about this?":

Everyone is Here was a terrible idea because it makes future Smash games (be honest with yourselves, they're inevitable with the series' success) seem inferior no matter what because Everyone is Here will never be achieved again. It also considerably decreased the newcomer count and personally, I wish Ultimate had more of a "new" factor. Everyone is Here also bloats the roster with so many characters so that the quality and depth of each character is decreased because they have to all share development time, meaning more bugs and fewer details.

Since the thread topic is about demons, why don’t we show appreciation for a series that deals with inner demons and fears.

Thank you for reminding the thread about that classic Gamefaqs thread, Watcher.

What about another game that explores a Japanese woman's inner demons and fears?

Yeah, that one. The one I never shut up about.

The last General Direct was in September, they kinda have a point. Nintendo has been screaming "Smash! Buy Smash!" for the past 6 months and it obviously worked but now they need to move on to the future. I've seen many casuals question what even is the 2019 lineup for Nintendo because the marketing is non-existent.

So, the thread’s theme is now the demons inside of us? Let’s see some demon-related stuff or actions found on my four favourite franchises then:

>In Metroid we can see a good example of Samus’s demons on Metroid 2, where she basically does to the Metroids the same thing that Ridley did with her species on Zebes, with the difference being that Samus refused to attempt to kill the only surviving child. This game would affect the franchise as a whole in many regards, including Samus herself.

>In Crash Twinsanity we are introduced to Evil Crash, a being from another dimension who could be the Bandicoot after being completely consumed by the demons inside of him. He eats the Evil Twins in the end of the game, which opens a lot of perceptions for the players. There’s also the stuff that the actual hero does to Cortex during the game, which shows some kind of unbalance between the good and bad behaviours of society.

>Godzilla itself is an allegory to a huge problem born from the madness of mankind during World War II (the nuclear bomb). The first movie in the franchise shows Godzilla as an atrocity born from the evil side of humanity, and does a perfect job with that imo. In later movies we would also see stuff like Destoroyah.

>In the Fantastic Four comics, we can see that Victor von Doom acts the way he does in an attempt to finally succeed over Mefisto and rescue his mother from hell. In many of the comics we see how Doctor Doom does anything, as bad as it could be, to get more power and guarantee a better scenario for the moment he meets with Mefisto again. The Fantastic Four themselves also show the good and bad things that families tend to have, and how those problems are normally fixed on them. In general, the comics showcase the way that the demons of humanity make any kind of person behave in drastic ways to overcome a lot of stuff. The character of Silver Surfer was also created by Stan Lee to free some of his philosophical thoughts and worriers to the readers.

In conclussion: JDCabrera needs to stop overthinking stuff.
Quoting this just because we are talking about demons again.

I was thinking about Metroid today.

tbf Nintendo fans don't really have many big Nintendo games to look forward to, We know nothing of AC2019, we know nothing of Pokemon, they have been INCREDIBLY quiet about Fire Emblem, we know nothing about Bayonetta 3, Prime 4's development got ****ed, we don't know if Pikmin 4 is still on the way, etc. The only game to look forward to in 2019 as a Nintendo fan is Yoshi's Crafting World unless Fire Emblem's still releasing soon

Think of it this way...

Breath of the Wild was massively delayed...

When it finally released, it went on to become Game of the Year...

Maybe the same thing might happen to Prime 4

It's just a jokey title. He even says so in the description that he's over exaggerating.
