Re: Sakurai Wins 'Most Valuable Creator' At Famitsu Dengeki Game Awards 2021

@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".

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?

Re: Custom-Made Etika Joy-Con Which Raised $10k For Charity Fell Foul Of Copyright Claim, Creator Reveals

"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.

Re: SNK Apologises For "Offensive Ad" Featuring Fatal Fury's Terry Bogard

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

Re: SNK Apologises For "Offensive Ad" Featuring Fatal Fury's Terry Bogard

jedisquidward

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.

Re: Random: Shigeru Miyamoto Used To Smoke In The Star Fox Office

jedisquidward

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

Re: Nintendo Labo, Pokémon, Smash Bros. And More Receive BAFTA Games Awards 2019 Nominations

jedisquidward

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
