Luigi is still mainly a Super Mario character, so the mushroom makes sense for him, but Dr. Mario appears exclusively in Dr. Mario games. It just seems odd to associate him with the Mushroom Kingdom considering he debuted in a puzzle game developed by the Wario Land/Metroid guys.

Hmm, I can understand that.

Started xenoblade again this morning (after a 2-ish year hiatus! I restarted the whole game since I forgot most of it).


Can I just say how damn good this game is? One of the best JRPGs of all time, and almost assuredly the best one of the last generation.

It's fun to play, the story is good, the combat is fantastic, the world is HUGE and you can explore as much or as little as you want. You never feel lost, there are tons of 'mmo style' quests, but they're 'kill 2' not 'kill 15', and once you kill the 2, you immediately get the reward (no need to talk to the quest giver). There's also FAST TRAVEL. So good.

So so good.

Here is a list for characters with numbers.

34: Shulk


Most of pictures were too small for me to tell.

In a previous page, there was a picture of the Mii Gunner with 40.

Which also proves that the Mii are being counted as separate characters, since there are only 40 officially revealed characters right now if we count them separately.

It's a shame I never got to play Xenoblade. Given how Sakurai rolls, I can probably expect abundant and prominent spoilers in Smash 4 :/

Aaaaaaand that thread perfectly encapsulates why I hate competitive Smash and the horrible community devoted to it.

I know not EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the community is an asshole like the ones in that thread and there are always exceptions, but I'll be damned if the "pro" Smash community doesn't do a damn good job of making it appear that 90% of them are total dicks. Hell, 95%.

I'm sure it's just a case of a vocal few ruining it for the rest of an otherwise sensible, friendly enough community, but ruin it they have.

The Melee community is extremely rough around the edges. The way that community was brought up has bred a lot of irrational people. You won't find many among the top level players, but the bottom dwellers can be utterly unbearable. Those kinds of people are going to become instinct after Smash 4 has been out for a while because it's going to unite the best of what the community has to offer and leave the rest in the dust. Look to the people Nintendo invited to the Smash invitational if you want a good example of the competitive community. Check out people like RelaxAlax, Mew2King, Toronto Joe, GimR, CT_Chibo, Keitaro...

God damn it, you guys.

Also, maaaan, Japan's getting the game in 13 days. That's bullshit.
Click to expand...

Hahaha. I feel bad for your tag. Well, I do understand why we had to wait for 3 weeks. I'm pretty sure that Sakurai and the teams are trying to cramming everything into the game before the deadline, so translation teams need a time to translate whatever left that Sakurai added at last minutes. Also they need more time to publishing the games.

Maybe the trailer gave you that impression but the game most definitely does not have a goofy 90s anime vibe. Like with Monolithsoft's other games there are significant plot twists. I think it's about 5 hours into the game where the story really begins.
Click to expand...

It's mostly the dubbing I mean - I have absolutely no inkling of what the plot entails so I can't really make a statement there. But the localization seems really low-budget, which is charming, and the English dialogue sounds equally clunky and JRPGish. It just feels very "90s JRPG localization" and "anime VHS that no one's ever heard of" to me. But I could be getting the complete wrong impression, which would be too bad, as I really don't care for modern JRPGs.

...of course, I haven't had the patience for most games over ~5 hours in years, never mind one that doesn't even start until that long in, so maybe I'd be biting off a bit more than I can chew either way, ha.

Can I take a moment to say how crazy that poster is?

Rockman vs Luigi.

Never in 25 years did I think I'd ever say that.

Alright, time for some hard-hitting analysis.

There's something that kind of bugs me about Shulk's alt. This is something I see with a lot of anime/video game guys, but it's especially egregious with Shulk. Looking at him, he's a pretty skinny dude. Legs, arms, shoulders, neck - there's not a lot of muscle on him. You can see his ribs. Yet he has inexplicably well-defined abs. How does that happen? How does a guy who has no discernible muscle anywhere else on his body have a perfect six-pack?

While I'm on the subject of Shulk's alt, what's the deal with his shoes? If Lucina's boots are the pinnacle of Smash fashion, these things are the absolute depths. They're dangerously close to being crocs.

It's actually something that bugs me, too, along with guys wearing bare midriff outfits. But, you need a strong core to swing a sword, I guess.

Or maybe it's just #40 in the poster series and they stick little characters by the number for kicks.

I swear Treehouse was translating as they went.

Oh well, I can handle three weeks. I've waited over six years as it is.

Your words, they make me want to play Xenoblade, despite talk of it being 100+ hours and costing nearly as much money to buy

Ugh...I really hope the "Duck Hunt" name is changed to "Duck Hunt Dog".

"Duck Hunt" just doesn't make any sense. Pokemon Trainer wasn't named "Pokemon", and Olimar wasn't named "Pikmin".

It is an odd name, but assuming you play as the dog, duck(s), and first-person hunter, then "Duck Hunt Dog" isn't exactly accurate.

Does anyone else think that Dr. Mario should get his own series icon? Dr. Mario has branched out into its own sub-series like Yoshi, and a pill makes a lot more sense for the character than a mushroom. The Dr. Mario games are mostly self-contained, and Dr. Mario doesn’t exactly show up in the main series or Mario Kart.

http://i.imgur.com/Y6L2mZb.png

Imagine seeing that pop up on the screen after winning with Dr. Mario, accompanied by a short Dr. Mario musical flourish. It just feels right, and it'd help further separate him from the standard Mario.

It's nowhere near that much right now as it got reprinted again.

50 dollars "Pre-owned" which is likely a brand new copy.
