So basically Pikachu, Squirtle and Jigglypuff's flavors are the tamest of the group. Charmander's seem to be the "Daring" flavor, and Gengar's Sweet Potato seems to be a fitting choice considering a few factors, not just being purple. Spooky really.
The Brocolli one is rather out there, I guess Pistachio would be a better choice, but i'm not sure Japan likes Pistachio.
@RyanSilberman ... Not really. Then again, it could be just some random "Oh hey, his clothes are gone again!" sorta scenario, i mean a good number of 90's cartoons tend to do that from time to time.
I guess it's the expression that makes it jarring?, i don't know, he's kinda giving a rather derpy-looking, absent minded expression to me, honestly.
So... People are disturbed by some random MALE inkling being naked? I guess it might been a similar effect if it was Female. Or would be offended even more if i think about it.
Ehhh, they coulda just pulled the Toonami Reboot route and then if enough people would go "Hey we want this!" to the point they'll end up going "Okay, okay! We'll do it!"
And yes, Toonami made a comeback because of a Aprils Fools joke if anyone was wondering.
Oh hey Ike's on first, Great! I guess? It kinda feels like a hollow victory to be all honest, i mean i voted for a few obscure dudes, though since i didn't play most of the fire emblem games, it kinda makes it sorta awkward, I voted for Eztel, Danved, Sigmund, Mycen & Lorenz, but i don't know who they are. I just slapped in Marth, cuz' eh. And Boy Corrin Cuz' Cam Clark.
Congrats on Ike and Lyn for Homecoming King and Queen i guess? (Also why do i have a feeling people are going to ship Roy and Lucina because of these results?)
Yeah, Essentially 1-2 Switch is kinda pricey for a mini-game compilation. It has a lot of possibilities, Considering the Drinking game/Who ever loses buys lunch sorta aesthetic.
I guess it be better if it was 20 bucks. I don't know.
@Octane Yeah, i've seen streams that also had some hilarious moments in games like Quiplash And Tee-K.O, it's a surprisingly crazy game if lots of people are involved.
@Mega_Yarn_Poochy It's a stupid, silly novelty item at best. Then again, it be amusing seeing someone use the thing by pressing the huge buttons with nothing but his/her arms, flapping around and about, Mashing the buttons with their elbows. It's kinda ridiculous and kinda feels comedic in some dumb way.
@NCChris That is a good point, and making Pichu not get damaged each time it uses a electric attack would also make it rather inaccurate to it's pokedex entry as well. Then again, Some Smash Fans frown upon clones in general (Which is a annoying thing, i must add.) , even though in some cases it fits some characters.
@Spoony_Tech Well, it is a Train simulator. There isn't anything flashy about it. Though i do respect it being a game about Trains. Needs something over the top to make it interesting.
Yeah, the beef most people have with MyNintendo is more of
"Okay, why can't you just save the discounts for the newer releases and give out older virtual console games for points instead of discounting them in the first place?"
"Well, I already own this game in my previous console, so should i waste cash on a game i already purchased in the past for it's original/discounted price back in the day? Or should i use it on a game i don't own but gets more of my attention?"
"But these games are classics, it's totally worth the money."
"No it ain't. I'd rather get it for free with said points cuz' i own the dang game and i don't wanna waste that money buying it again, there's other games i'm more worried about getting! Like that new insert popular title here game!"
It's kinda like that, then again how should i know, i'm not an expert on these sorta things. I have to juggle hobbies around!
More Coupons? Why not just give games away for free? I mean, the people want better rewards? Well, there you go. Wait, wouldn't that be a reckless business strategy though?

Re: Sonic Forces Will Let You Create Your Own Playable Character
I'm just surprised "Lizard" and "A certain race that happen to be Sally's" aren't in this. I have a hunch i would find a way to goof around with this.

Well... i guess i might be late for this, but dang.

Re: Soapbox: Think of 1-2-Switch as Less of a "Video Game" and Suddenly It Gets Better
@nhSnork Yeah... it's more like a fancier substitute for Rock, Paper, Scissors than anything.

@thesilverbrick Yeah, to be fair they have to include them.
Meanwhile the Ice Climbers just sit there in a corner.
Re: Rumour: A New CPSIA Listing Implies More Smash Bros. amiibo Are Coming

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Hmmm, but i have a hunch the style of the logo seem abit familiar... Oh, Maybe it's Snipperclips?
Re: Video: Watch the Nintendo Switch Experience From Tokyo, Day One - Live!
Goombas with Hardhats. Solid.
Re: Video: Watch the Nintendo Switch Experience From Tokyo, Day One - Live!

Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
You know what. I just want Freakin' Mach Rider.
Re: Rumour: Super Mario And Rabbids Crossover In Development For Nintendo Switch
I'm guessing that they picked the Rabbit's cuz Ubisoft treats them as their "Mascots"? Surely.
Will Rayman show up in this game? Not so Surely.
Is this Crossover kinda silly in more ways than one, in both the best and worst of ways? You betcha it will, Surely?
Re: Lionel City Builder 3D: Rise of the Rails Arrives on the European eShop on 17th November
@Spoony_Tech Well, it is a Train simulator. There isn't anything flashy about it. Though i do respect it being a game about Trains. Needs something over the top to make it interesting.
