I already got spoiled via the whole final boss fight, but it still looks interesting.

Believe me when I say Earthbound is more about the journey than the end destination. You haven't missed much just because you know the final boss

 

[EarlTamm]

Holy heck, the thread poll is reset.

Edit:
Weird. I saw that the original poll was reset, put in my votes to the same things I put in last time, and now I have voted for the marble race.

 

[staindgrey]

Alright, new poll everybody.

For those unaware, UtopianPoyzin has been hosting a marble race for the social thread on his Youtube channel and in Decisive Games. Place your bets for the final nine in the game.

You're really going to make me post Part 7 right now...

Okay, now I guess I actually have to run the next part! It'll go live tomorrow, and I actually have a smaller course so it doesn't lag out!

Thank you staindgrey , I really appreciate you fulfilling the request.

I used to collect video games, but then I started collecting journals and immediately began regretting it.

 

[PsySmasher]

Goddamn. I just realized how much my FighterZ skills have dropped off since I've been playing Ultimate so much.

Plus I gotta unlock Android 21 on the Switch version (I only unlocked her on PS4). And that's kinda important since she was my best character.

So RIP me I guess.

I kinda hope that Nintendo does reveal more than one DLC pick at E3, and that it’s a pick none of these leakers are talking about. They’re so obviously fake, yet folks just eat it up.

I see more and more people talking about the Google ad thing on Twitter...but this constant leak stuff is getting old imo.

The common discussion angles are Erdrick and a Microsoft rep. If anything, I just want those out of the way since it's been half a year since Joker got revealed. Give us new topics for the second half of the year.

Anyways moving from ginger ale talk (honestly haven't tried Canada Dry, wasn't making any comments regarding its quality) I was wondering 2 things regarding speculation about info that we had in the past and would like some opinions on it.

The first is regarding the dummied data that included the titles of Jet Force Gemini, Blast Corps and Devil's Third in the spirit titles

Spoiler

Looking at the spirits from Persona 5 that were included with Joker, they only belong to P5 (Igor who is a recurring character appears with his P5 sprite) while ones from P3, P4 and other SMT related demons are ignored. P3 and P4 have representation in the form of Mii costumes

I would think that this could potentially mean two things as to my understanding:
-There is a set number of spirits being released and the spirits are being selected to accommodate that number.
-The content is just going to be limited to the games the character comes from and we could get more or less spirits if that's the case

I know that Rare has a number of potential franchises that have popular candidates for DLC, but I feel that unless they want to add Rare history in general it's more likely to get spirits exclusive to the franchise appearing. Especially in the case of Banjo and KI (possibly Conker and Battletoads as well) where they wouldn't have any trouble filling the spirit board.

I don't think this would discourage any presence of a character belonging to Rare in the pass but due to some of these suspicions, the names being contained in their Japanese names and the presence of Devil's Third on the data I feel that the current content is dummied content that was never supposed to be on the game.

The second one would be the Vergeben list for the 7 potential newcomers, this one depends on how you see Vergeben's info:

Spoiler

This one is more regarding the absence more than the presence of a character in the list, I'm talking about Lara Croft. Lara Croft is arguably a really popular character, and her absence in the list is kinda strange.

If I recall correctly, from the 7 characters in his list (technically 8 with Million Arthur or something being mentioned as a joke), Slime was mentioned by only one source. Now one of the weird aspects apart from more names not appearing is the fact that Mr. Croft was not being mentioned even once, which I find hard to believe.

This could mean that effectively, Lara Croft was never considered but also it makes very little sense to not try to use her at least as a red herring given her popularity. Which I don't really know what to make about.
