Important thing about Genesis 5, it's the first big tournament since ZeRo the best player in the world announced his retirement from Smash 4, so we're entering a new era of dominance.
We've never had an official re-release of SNES Star Fox, it's been twenty years since we played it in its actual super fx glory, roms have never emulated correctly SF. But even if SNES Mini is released it would probably not include SF.
@Dave24 there are that many 10sec cutscenes, besides I said most of them, others last longer but they let you keep playing on the gamepad while the cutscene continues on the tv, the point being that they are not including extra long cutscenes to make the game longer, it has the average (or even less) amount of cutscenes than a regular game they just feel like a lot more in star fox because star fox games are short.
I think that since bayonetta was so op everyone had to develop anti-bayonetta skills and now that everyone knows how to deal with her and she is being nerfed, she will go from top tier to very low tier.
@Yorumi part of the problem is precisly that, what native tribe were they trying to portray? Because there are hundreds of different tribes, just a regular generic costume? Thats discriminatory and dehumanizing, because they're implying theyr are all the same. They're neglecting the different struggles that each community had, like they were all nameless indians. If they did look out for a specific design then that tribe owns it, period. And whats wrong with taking a poll? Whats wrong with people changing their mind with the pass of time? A poll in the fifities would have had racist results against black people, is it wrong that nowadays that wouldnt happen (as much)? Its a good thing that people change their mind accordingly to time, we are suppossed to be moving foward evolving not only biologically but socially too.
@Yorumi just to clarify I was not talking about legal stuff or whatever, like you CAN'T do that, more like don't do that cause its not cool. Just like you said in your first comment, in the case of that specfific tribe that was working along with the school to make sure everything was allright, thats what should be done always. Its not the same as for example ubisoft using london and uk flags and costumes for the zombie u game, cause france and the uk are in good terms of collaboration and international diplomacy or whatever. Same about well pretty much every other western country. Just saying that before making fun of the way of speaking or using the caricature image of the people that has been neglected and opressed for 500 hundred years you might want to ask them if its cool you know? Its not like the rest of the world is buddies with the native americans.
@rishisquid the costume itself is not offensive, in fact it might even be sacred (idk I'm not native american), the problem here is that people think they can use them for whatever they want just because hey it appears in cartoons, and sports teams, and halloween. Its not theirs to use (or yours), its not public domain, it belongs to them for religious and cultural reasons. Its not like the rest of the world is in good terms with the native americans to be like hey I'll just borrow your image to put it on this cute sexy outfit for a wizard you see it fits, magic traditions, whatever. You might be offended for a cowboy costume, but that is work attire, you might want to slow down a bit if you think working with horses its the same as the spiritual lifestyle of the oppressed people. I'm not commentint on the ninja costume thing cause I don't know anyhing about that. Finally it's not for you to decide if native americans should or would not be offended by whatever reason, leave that to them, listen to them first and then defend them, don't speak for them.
@Ralizah it's not like the native american leaders asked the japanese to please put their image in the game and then the developers said nah bro, cowboys are better. They never asked to be there in the first place, so no one is getting replaced. I would assume if they want to be represented in the media they would like it to be respectful and informed, rather than borrowed caricatures of them.
Upset a group of people who have been mocked, discrimanted, abused, attacked, and segregated for hundreds of years since they were taken away their homes and traditions? Or upsteting a group of whiny white babies over their "freedom" to continuing the mockering of the first group? Mmmm though one.
People really don't see why they chose him. He was the HR guy, iwata had already had everything set before he had to go. This guy's role is just going to be to do whatever iwata had already planned while selecting and preparing the group of people who will be in charge if the company for the next decades. I would predict he is going to be president from 5 to 10 years maybe.
It reminded me of the pokemon google challange (or whatever that thing was called) from a couple of years ago. I feel this is what they were aiming for, maybe that was like a test to know how people would react to this game?
Btw mewtwo fighting 20 pokemon at the same time like a boss.
@Captain_Gonru Fun fact: metroid blast was originally planed as a star fox minigame but they changed it to metroid cause the arwing doesnt move like the samus spaceship, so the whole helicopter thing miiiiight just be like that.
@Damo I realize original snes starfox wouldnt be the same if it wasnt for cuthbert, that doesn't make him the father of starfox or anything. I also realize he doesn't have any kind of love for the franchise, he has made problematic statements about the fans and he is responsible for the disaster that was starfox command which doomed the series for a nearly 10 years hiatus. People praise cuthbert for the wrong reasons, he is a programming and engineering genius when it comes to game development, but nobody mentions that and for some reason everybody thinks he has some important conection to what starfox is today.
I dont like that approach of "our story is what really happened and the game is a perversion of the real story". Isn't it kind of insulting to the original material?
I only played the samus's gunship in nintendo land a few times and it was kind of hard but once I got how it works it was so much fun.
Fun fact: metroid blast was originally going to be a star fox atraction in nintendo land but miyamoto thought it was kind of weird for the arwing to move that way so they changed it to metroid.
@Dak908 It's not necessarily about laziness, If they are independent developers and don't have the resources or man power to do a 3D game it's ok. The thing that bugs me is that this game was suppossed to be a 3d game and they want to do it now in 2d because they loved the project so much, they could have made a new game inspired in what sadness was going to be and call it different name, because it is going to be a different game. My guts tell me they want to hang from the sadness name (if we can call it that even though it was never a thing) to hype people about this new game and their studios.

Yeah I mean, Wii U it's not going to be another Wii in matter of sales, but I don't think we're talkin about a VirtualBoy disaster either. It's gonna be fine, WiiU will sale well, and we'll get great games as always.

Re: Exclusive: Lost Wii Game, Sadness, To Be Revived as Wii U Exclusive
