What's the ugliest Mii you can make? Most of the non-default options are already pretty ugly.

Like seriously, who thought any of these nose shapes didn't make you self-conscious?
I'm seen some good ones.

Just ignore human anatomy.

reminder that alph didnt get his echo slot that he rightfully earned and could have had for no reason whatsoever

sakurai hates pikmin confirmed
It's probably due to most attacks being done by the Pikmin themselves, which wouldn't make sense to have different stats or attributes.

I'm still all in for Plasma Wraith such a cool final boss, I wonder what's the next goo monster will be that stalks Olimar.

Primarily its funny how goo monsters seem to be the only other thing that's intelligent among the monsters on PNF-404

The Brawl newcomers were so on point, I don't think any other batch will ever outmatch them.

Or whoever the next Captain is. Is there any others similar to Plasma Wraith in Pikmin?
Well I think they're all around that star system because there's one in 'Hey Pikmin'

So all you really need is to knock into a space rock with a goo monster within it and there you go.

When I saw that everyone was freaking out over a fart joke in Detective Pikachu I thought it was going to be, like, Charizard lighting up a gas cloud into a fiery explosion or something. I just watched that new trailer and pfft, that joke was really tame. I don't see what everyone is freaking out over.

Then again I wasn't actually that invested in how the movie was going to turn out anyway.

but Illumination IS decent
yes yes blah blah minions

but Minions isnt the only movie they made
Illumination is actually fantastic at animation. They got a nice cartoony style.

They just can't write to save their lives.

My biggest fear is how Illumination would handle Yoshi. They might just have him say nothing but his name over and over...

Their... not the company that handles characters like that the best. I prefer he's not in the movie over that...

:dedede::metaknight::diddy::olimar::warioc::ike::toonlink::squirtle::ivysaur::charizard::zerosuitsamus::lucario::lucas::wolf:, then :sonic: coming home, :pit: resurrected and :snake: out of ****in' nowhere.

I have to agree. It was like "realistically as many true Nintendo icons that we haven't put in yet in one game". Then Smash 4 was more "all the newer characters people know that haven't been put in yet", and Ultimate was "the ones you kept asking for, gawd".

Tetra/Toon Zelda
Tetra was never on the file list. Toon Sheik was. I don't know why people keep mispreading this information, but there is absolutely nothing to suggest he meant Tetra. He might've considered Tetra at some point, but it's clear he meant a double clone this way if we're being realistic. Toon Sheik/Toon Zelda was the intended plan.

Also, he didn't really consider Banjo & Kazooie either. It's more that he used them as an example of impossible characters due to licensing(same with James Bond). They were very quickly dismissed.

We don't actually know what Pra_Mai means. It might means Plusle & Minun, but that cannot be confirmed. Same with Chorus Kids as well. We only know it's a Rhythm Heaven character for sure. We only have the word of a leaker, but not a confirmation by Sakurai... yet. I think that covers the inaccuracies on this list.

yeah but you don't really need strong writing for a mario movie

implying that he does otherwise in the games

Honestly I can see it being the Chorus Kids though since said Rhythm Heaven character was cut due to animation issues which they'd easily fit being a trio.

rock pikmin
i mean richter has one difference, why not make it for this one too?
Richter also has separate animations and voice, plus Simon’s moveset has a lot of Richter’s signature moves.

Oilmar on the other hand has no voice in Smash, and his animations are fairly non-descript, meaning they fit just as fine with Alph as they do with Olimar.

Furthermore, Rock Pikmin would require an entirely new model, with new physics and everything. While it’s true that some Echoes are more different than others (Chrom, Ken), I feel like that goes beyond what an Echo Fighter is supposed to be, as even with their differences, all echoes’ movesets are very clearly still attached to their base Fighters.

I'm pretty sure that writing is what has people shook. The mere thought of Toads screeching constantly and dabbing will leave some to wake up in a cold sweat.

Guys I honestly wouldn't worry about Illumination messing it up. Do you really think Nintendo wouldn't of lend the film rights to them in the first place. I'm sure of it they're gonna make sure they'll make the movie good.

We don't know why they were cut at all. We only actually have a proper file list of all franchises that have fighters, and RH was one of those. Which all it means is a RH character was intended to be playable at some point.

Is there an article about this? Or is this just guesswork? Was new data found?

I think RH character was completely cut cause Sakurai just couldnt make the character work with whatever moveset gimmick he wanted

Ah gotcha then and no. I just it was them because I heard it was animation issues. Maybe I was wrong.

I still think their animation looks cheap and generic. Though that fits every other aspect of their films so there’s that.

I will say the Grinch is probably their best film yet, which doesn’t really mean much considering their lineup. I’d be more excited for an animated Mario movie of it was ANY other animation company other than Illumination.

Where'd you hear it from? Maybe it's just not well-circulated information.

My theory is similar to that, that the rhythm gimmick couldn't be made to work right. DK's Final Smash being unwieldly shows that to a degree.
