Ruler-Of-All-Evil

Of course it’s only items. Why the heck wouldn’t it be only items?!

They had a perfect opportunity to put a Darkstalkers character not named Morrigan & also freakin' Star Force Mega Man in the game, but of course Capcom wants to limit the crossover stuff in Street Fighter 6 to exclusively limited time items.

@Sejman22 The original Samba de Amigo games were made by Sonic Team, they did not work on Party Central. Also, Sonic Team only made a single Puyo Puyo game, and that was Fever 1. Adding on to that, Sakura Wars and Valkyria Chronicles weren’t even made by Sonic Team, so I don’t know how you dragged THEM in.

@sportymariosonicmixx The first Sonic Team game EVER MADE was from February 17th, 1995, and it damn well wasn’t a Sonic game.

Maybe if you let Sonic Team make more video games OUTSIDE OF JUST SONIC GAMES, you wouldn’t be in this dilemma, SEGA!

And yes, this has everything to do with Puyo Puyo’s 35th anniversary.

Shadow Realm? I’m sending you to Tampa, Florida!

@DiamondJim There has only been one 3D Kirby game so far, NOT COUNTING Air Ride, Blowout Blast, and the mainline 2D Kirby games with 3D elements.

Likewise, though, there was only one Kirby Metroidvania, so…

Game Freak, wherever you are out there on this big blue marble... BITE ME.

I'm definitely going to check it out at some point, as me & my mom are more interested in Mario & Luigi: Brothership at the moment.

That being said, Jamboree still has my interest.

@UsernameMayne My brother in Christ, that’s exactly what makes people playing a game early before its release scum.

@VoidofLight People just want to play the game early and be scum of the earth.

@Maulbert Refer to the comment from @jesse_dylan about the price of the original Dragon Quest III back in the day.

@Daniel36 Yeah, I remember Call of Duty games being total shelf warmers. My dad had only played a few of them (MW2, MW3, Black Ops 2, Black Ops 3, and the remakes of Modern Warfare 1 & 2).

@RygelXVIII Yes, that is true — everything else is affected by inflation.

@Daniel36 "Game prices are one of the few things that have remained pretty constant over the years, at least where I live. They were always the equivalent of 60 bucks. From Atari2600 up to now. Always the same."

I agree with you on the cheaper options thing, but weren’t video games (not consoles) HELLA cheap in the 2010s?

@Pat_trick No, back in the NES days, they released I first, then II, then III.

Now, III (the prequel story) is coming out first, followed by I & II. The order of the NES releases has the prequel placed after II, but the remakes are fixing that.

@Maulbert Ever heard of inflation? Because that’s why prices for video games are so high.

Bait used to be believable back in my day…

@Kiyata Yeah, I’ve been let in that the playtest is actually for VIRTUAL BOY GAMES ON NSO.

No, that’s not a joke.

@Markiemania95 That was A WHILE AGO.

@GamingFan4Lyf You said it… given how long the Wii U lasted, I initially didn’t expect the Switch to last this long.

@Solarstriker It’s an SNK game, the AI is not going to be less cheesy.

@Yoshi3 2’s eventually gonna come to Switch, because it was on the N64. As for 3, though…

@Blue_Dread My brother in Jesus H.P. Lovecraftian Christ… Fawful is permadead. He’s not coming back. Bowser’s Inside Story did him in for good.

Midbus I can see returning, but not Fawful.

@Not_Soos I recommend playing the Bowser’s Inside Story remake (you don’t have to play Jr.’s Journey, by the way) and Dream Team if you want to get accustomed to it — the Giant Battles are in this exact art style (only cooler in colors on Dream Team because it’s an early 3DS game).

Haven’t played a Mario Party game in a hot minute, and Jamboree’s catching my interest.

I’m still set on getting Mario & Luigi: Brothership, though.

@NintendomPower True, but the Creaking still essentially behave like Boos in that they only move when you don’t look at them.

"I really wonder, who's even complaining about this?"
Horny people, that’s who.

Oh great, a rip off of the Boos from Mario. XD

Sarcasm aside, it's interesting to see Mojang's approach on the tree monster.

@Arehexes I definitely agree with you on that.

@Arehexes Yeah, I’m not saying it isn’t weird, because… well, it is.

@Arehexes To be fair, Pocketpal is an... INCREDIBLY scummy company. If you want an image of just how scummy, think of all those posts from those people on Twitter that make Nintendo out to be heartless monsters.

As for ROM Hacks, not entirely sure about Nintendo's stance on those, as while some get DMCA'd, others are used as inspiration for them. Same with fangames, for that matter (some get DMCA'd, some don't), only it's far more common and confusing as to why with that specific category. With Pokémon Uranium, it was just... obvious (monetizing a fan-game is... no), but for AM2R, I think it was a matter of coincidence and that Nintendo didn't want that project to compete with Metroid: Samus Returns, which they were working on with Mercury Steam at the time.

@Arehexes We just have a love-hate relationship with Nintendo, that's all. Sometimes they put out news that makes us happy, sometimes they make us say "What are you... DOING?"

@smoreon Yeah, if I remember correctly, Kenny James started voicing Bowser in 2005, but Scott Burns’ clips were also used for Bowser in Mario games until 2009 when New Super Mario Bros. Wii & Bowser’s Inside Story came out, so by that point Kenny James had taken over the role. Mario Sports Mix was the last game Scott Burns worked with Nintendo on, and even then he voiced a Square Enix character.

@smoreon Scott Burns voiced Ninja in Mario Sports Mix.

PS: "But for now, let's just rest a while."

@EarthboundBenjy Eh, I always felt like Sonic '06 was moreso Adventure CD, given how Sonic CD and '06 shared a lot of similarities.

@Teksetter Eh, to be fair, we don’t need a repeat of the Competitive Chatot incident.

@mlt It’s a Mario platformer. They’re already not beginner-friendly enough.

@smoreon Best thing is, I actually emailed Scott Burns a couple years back the day before April Fool's asking him about why Ninja, Shirma and Chroma were in the Mario world in both Mario Hoops 3-on-3 and Mario Sports Mix, especially considering certain events in Super Mario RPG (cough, Culex, cough).

On April Fool's Day, he actually responded back, and while he didn't have a definitive answer to my mystery, he actually told me about an experience he had voicing Bowser for Mario Power Tennis, and showed me the room in Bad Animals Studio where he recorded voice clips for Nintendo!

PS: "I know, she's not really my mama. Someday, when I'm bigger... I wanna fight that Mario again!"

@batmanbud2 Hey!

Don’t diss Scott Burns!

@DripDropCop146 That’s only if you’re an idiot and forget to charge the Wii Remote.

Iizuka's seriously tempting me to make a video where it's just a Sonic opening cinematic but with the 1980s G.I. Joe theme, isn't he?

When the plumbing gets tough, the tough get plumbing.

@Samalik OK, now that reasoning I can get behind. I respect your decision not to buy Capcom Fighting Collection 2, and I once again apologize if my question came off as rude.

@Samalik Eh, it’s just Fighting Evolution and Midnight Bliss. The move itself isn’t being cut, it’s the transformations that will be altered a bit.

I was JOKING, Nintendo!

@27celsius A character based off of characters like Spawn and Venom getting abilities like Spawn and Venom! Heresy! (Sarcasm.)

@X68000 Alright – thanks for the update. I made the original comment yesterday, so Knotz may have been mourning the loss of Lillis then.

@ZZalapski Geez, I was talking about that she didn’t send any condolences yesterday! No need to be rude!

What I could say on here has already been said by very talented people.

What I will say, however, is notice how Michele Knotz didn’t send any condolences.

So…

How long you wanna bet it takes before this backfires on Zaslob?

Smash 64 fans have won this day.
