Ah I was wondering why it said 3 days. Didn't know NA gets it first.
Everyone gets it at the same time, but the first session happens when it's still Friday in the US.

C'mon son.. lolI mean i could use these arguments to justify the creation of any thread...and if every games twitter page had a thread i feel discussion would be far less productive here on gaf. Currently as somebody intrigued by the game im finding it hard to find any actually impactful discussion thats not just hype imo. Ultimately the community is contributing to making the game less intriguing to me with all these unneccesary threads.
Geez im so out of the loop. Went on a trip last week and still aint recover fullyAs per the post before, the Global Test Punch.
Only two days remain for NA, but 3 for the rest of the world.
What are you event talking about. I have no idea where you are where Springman's design isn't "socially acceptable". The only thing remotely stuck in the past is his hairstyle
I wouldn't say that Min Min's design is all that well indicative of "modern" sensibilities more than Spring Man's is, given that she plays pretty much entirely into her two primary stereotypes (ramen, and East Asian martial arts). I sure wouldn't say that the dragon arm is at all meant to reference tattoo sleeves. Spring Man is an enthusiastic comeback-kid boxer and his look is designed around that in the same way that Min Min's works for her theme. Most all of the characters seem to be designed around similar mashups between two different styles (Ribbons + pop idol, snakes + extreme sports, clockwork + police, ninja + student, etc).

Wow, uhh, now I'm even more confused...
Also Spring Man best "jock"
I...think you're reading way too far into the intentions of Spring Man's design. He's not supposed to represent "the ideal male" insomuch as just being the most "everyman" character among an otherwise very eclectic cast. His primary motif is boxing, which would work as a more unique hook in other games, but since extendable-arms-boxing is the primary sport that the game is built around, it just means he comes off looking more default than the other character themes present.
Superman
Archie
James Dean's iconic look
Add Black Hair and a Sequence jacket and Springman is Elvis
It feels like generic 1950s/60s Americana, except it doesnt carry enough modern influences so rather then being "Timeless and updated" it just feels stuck in the past.
Hahaha, amazing
I don't think his design is interesting enough or fun enough to sum up this game. Just look at his character art, it's just him throwing a reserved punch in a generic punch pose.Spring Man's design alone perfectly summarizes what the game is all about. I mean, your opinion is subjective. I don't think Spring Man's design is generic. Find me a character that looks similar. Twin looks great as a character, but I'm not sure how you can say her look is above his. But it's all subjective.
I actually find Twintelle to be a fair bit more "generic" than Spring Man, insofar as her lower torso is pretty much copy/pasted from Bayonetta, right down to the booty and style of pants. Beyond that she's a pretty girl with a lucha mask and drill-tails.
Twintelle's mid-air float pose is pretty much straight out of Bayonetta. I don't mind, though, because it's super-cool, and I adore Bayonetta.

Cheers! Ugh, I have to stay awake until 1am on Friday night as I'll miss the other two periods due to the cinema.... oh well!

All so far, except Mechanica:
What are the times on Friday for the NA test release?

among the first things you see is a big link to:

By the way, I'm not sure if it's been discussed, but from how they worded that one tweet I'm pretty sure the 3 maps announced are the maps for Testpunch week 1. The eShop also lists that we're able to play all 10 characters, leading me to believe week 2 will probably have all 10 characters unlocked and different/more maps.
I've also heard comments from journalists who attended the latest ARMS session about two of the characters being a bit more advanced in play and require a bit more skill. It makes sense that they'd only let us play the easier to learn characters at first.
I assume one of them is Helix due to his unconventional fighting style.
I actually mean two of the three not playable characters this weekend. It may have just been like that to them though, no idea. The guys at IGN called Byte and Barc a bit overpowered, on the other hand. I guess personal preference always plays a role.
Helix is already confirmed to be playable.

Of course the L button of my left Joy-Con craps out now. Hopefully Nintendo gets it fixed quickly.
