@Noid So, first, I think you mean to say "fallacy" and not "falacy". Additionally, I think Nick All Star Brawl is good, but it definitely has problems and there are reasons people haven't really talked about it after release. For example, almost everyone has an up tilt that looks similar and the lack of defensive options not only makes a lot of characters, such as grapplers, nonviable, but I feel it overall makes the game less exciting. And not to be rude, but the fact that the main two points you name as problems in SSBU are "overpowered projectiles" and "input lag" really comes across as someone who is upset losing online. It's not even necessarily wrong to feel upset; you would just need to learn these matchups better because certain character archetypes inherently have strong suits that others don't. For example, Samus can keep away with strong projectiles in neutral, but if a character like Captain Falcon can get in, he can easily deal a lot of damage and pressure. I also don't remember any direct quote saying "clone haters are just children".
It's not the Super Bowl yet. When it gets to the point of showing the Super Bowl commercials 3 days before the Super Bowl, aren't we getting away from ourselves?
Jesus Christ, what's with this reaction? I've seen just about nothing but praise for Reggie for years and years and now suddenly everyone in these comments hates him?
The fact that all of you go into such an absolute temper tantrum just from a single editorial about this, which isn't even saying anything controversial, is just such a pain in the ass. It's just getting so ridiculous how people are becoming more and more hypersensitive to this. "OH MY GOD A FEMALE CHARACTER STOP SHOVING YOUR AGENDA DOWN MY THROAT!!!"
Oh yeah? Where are the other "puffs"? Am I right, fellas? And seriously, what's the deal with airline food? You might as well make the plane out of the food with how it tastes! Anyone hear about this Monica Lewinsky girl? And I thought Watergate was a controversy! Pretty soon, it's gonna be broken-water-gate! And gas prices these days! I might as well just buy a new car! Hey, it's a good way to get a nice SUV instead of that MINI VAN the wife wants to chain me down with! Now guys, am I right, or am I right?
It truly is nice to not have to wait so long in between announcements this month after such a legendary hiatus of info for what feels like over a year.
"Look people, they HAVE to shut this down, they're legally required to"
Doesn't the Twitter of Sonic the Hedgehog retweet fan projects? Didn't Capcom officially endorse "Street Fighter X Mega Man" a few years back?
I would legitimately love to see hard examples of these kind of laws instead of just vague "they have to protect their copyright, they HAVE to take down that Mario drawing on the kindergarten wall"
I should say that when you read the details here, it is not AS egregious as it can initially come off. I still think it's reasonable to be upset at them though for their extraordinary tone-deafness.
Between the general lack of quality in Mario 3D All Stars, the ridiculous artificial shelf life of it and Mario 35, and the absolute stubborn unwillingness to give us a product people are craving (ie Melee online) and actively snuffing out alternatives while rereleasing the same exact NES games over and over, this company has just been doing really poorly this year.
It is really sad to see the amount of fanboys on this site. "They're protecting their copyright" "Other companies also do bad things" Yes, we know. We still have a right to discuss it and to call it out if it's stupid and/or poorly timed and/or tone deaf. (In this case, "and" on both accounts.)
Maybe if everyone who is mad that others are mad would shut up for one second about the "durr durr political correctness cancel culture" assumption for one minute, maybe consider the fact that this is a beloved character acting completely trashy and unlike themselves for no reason. I hate to make assumptions but Jesus Christ it feels like nobody on this site actually plays anything not made by Nintendo sometimes
"Look he got his comeuppance at the end so it's fine"
Yeah the new Mario game is Mario going around and brutally murdering Peach, Luigi, Bowser, and everyone else, but he gets sentenced to life in prison at the end so durr I dont get why people are so mad! Cancel culture is eeeeeevillllll!
This is disgusting. I don't even mean it in a Puritan "Oh this is not morally acceptable" way. It's gross and trashy to see Terry doing this and I really don't want to think of him this way (Imagine if this was Mario). It's not just the action itself though; the poor animation and reused models and voice clips is so offputting and gross that this feels like the intro to an SFM Hentai video.
Of course he was smoking! A guy who runs around and jumps on turtles, they must have been ON DRUGS to create something THAT strange! That's not something people normally do in day to day life! Mario eats mushrooms, and they make him grow? Wait a minute, mushrooms don't do that in real life! In real life, MUSHROOMS ARE DRUGS!
I'm glad to be the first one to ever come up with this joke
@Cevil It's funny how the game is more about loss, dreams, and the longing for another, but because it features two women instead of a man and a woman, it's instantly "gay propaganda" no matter what.
Well alright, but hopefully this means you'll actually make a product out of this, and not two or three years from now, since you already know there is an audience
Smash Bros Ultimate should be also nominated for "Family", "Music", and "Best Game". Was it released too late to be nominated for Best Game? Every year, the Best Game nominees for all these awards seem to be near exclusively Triple A, American/European, Single Player, Third Person games with a heavy emphasis on stories that aren't very interesting (Thankfully it seems to not be as heavily present at this show). Not to say these games aren't good, but come on. Smash Bros really deserves Game of the Year
God bless Bryan Dechart for managing to turn in not only a great performance, but one great enough to make a good character, especially given the material he had to work with. And that goes out to the other Detroit actors too. My heart goes out to any poor soul who must work on a David Cage game
