Re: Here's Your First Look At Sonic X Shadow Generations: Dark Beginnings

@Samalik Hey, like I said, I have wanted to try the Japanese versions of Sonic games. Heck, I own a Japanese Kirby & The Amazing Mirror cartridge.

But most people who defend the Japanese dub are kind of comparable to people who love the original Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, y’know? They’re practically rabid. I know my reasoning for staying away from the subbed Sonic games isn’t the best, but it’s a whole lot better than saying “I don’t want to learn Japanese.” Looking at you, “when’s EarthBound 3” people.

@Samalik Look, I kinda have a history of getting into dub vs. sub arguments on the internet. Whenever I have the belief that the dub is better (like in this case), some people try to resort to toxic behavior to convince me otherwise, which kinda gives me a bad impression of them.

I’m sorry if I reacted the way I did, and I want to clarify I don’t dislike Japanese dubs — I’ve seen a couple Japan exclusive Transformers shows. But the pure negativity I’ve seen behind some of the sub over dub arguments really makes me not want to try the Japanese version. That was especially the case for me with the Yu-Gi-Oh anime, and the only reason I watched the Japanese version of GX was for Season 4.

@Xbox_Dashboard I'm of the mind that neither party is innocent in this circumstance, but Pyoro in particular has it worse compared to Schreier because the latter was just doing his job in this case.

Did Schreier gain nothing and jump to conclusions a little early? Sure. But I've seen Goodfellas enough to know that the golden rules of being in the crime business are never rat on your friends and always keep your mouth shut. And Pyoro did NEITHER OF THOSE THINGS.

Re: Silksong Is "Not In Dev Hell" According To Playtester

@MSaturn I mean, at least Metroid Prime 4: Beyond had justification for its 7 (coming on 8) year development cycle. COVID-19 hit at the worst time, their team was pretty small after the pandemic so they had to start hiring people…

The fact that Retro Studios plowed through anyway despite the dumpster fire of a development cycle is just incredible.

Re: Reaction: A Direct That Delivered, And Shows That Switch Still Has Plenty Of Pep

Anyone who voted a 4 or lower without validating why is coping over Silksong, pure & simple.

That being said, this is quite possibly the best Direct I’ve ever seen. Dare I say, not even the E3 2018 direct could top this. Mahvel’s back, Mario & Luigi is back, Metroid Prime 4 isn’t dead, almost everyone got what they wanted… it was an all around beautiful Direct. A perfect 10.

Re: Random: "Walupeach" Was Almost A Thing, But Miyamoto Vetoed Before Seeing The Designs

Ruler-Of-All-Evil

I call shenanigans on Miyamoto's reasoning, mainly because of what Takahashi said, but also because there's also Jessie, James and Meowth from the Pokémon anime, as well as Princess Devilotte and her crewmates from Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness - who, by the way actually got along well with the Doronjo Gang in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. All I see is Miyamoto just wasting a perfect opportunity.
