So, I was playing Sheik today, and I have a question for all those that have been on the receiving end of a Sheik-ing (And maybe even those who haven't!):

Bouncing fish;

[] Too good

OR

[] Too good
 
the answer is C: Not Wizard's Dropkick and not worth my time
 
Bouncing Fish is dumb and I groan every time I'm up against a Sheik.

Learning the matchup a little bit more everyday.

"Pic of the day. The trophies from the Xenoblade series can be found mostly in the Wii U version. Here's Melia looking the other way."

The chronological present is now relevant towards Reyn!
<I like this new Trophy Hoard background.>
 
You can always leave it to Reyn when Shulk is not around.
 
Jesus. They even made Metal Face's trophy huge.
 
Is that Face Nemesis in the back there?

I wonder how they'll decide to spoil Xenoblade like how they spoiled 90% of Mother 3's endgame.
 
if we don't get a Robowife trophy I'll probably be surprised
she's like
the primary spoiler of Xenoblade and also one of the coolest parts
 
Wii U trophy selection confirmed superior. Again.

Metal Face model looks better than the obvious model rips for Melia and Reyn, so there's more evidence for him being a boss on Gaur Plains. And this all but confirms a Sharla trophy (not like anyone cares about Sharla).
 
Not even Sharla.
 
What makes it even better is that she has a little brother

and his name is Juju
 
Those shapes are characteristic of Magickoopa, which you probably know and I probably look dumb.


Also, why do people call PSABR a ripoff? I don't like that game much and feel that it is pretty boring, really, but I want the genre to expand and the best way to do that is to encourage others to make similar games instead of insulting them for it.

I guess this probably happens with all genres, but what about platform fighters or whatever you want to call the genre makes it such that you can only be ripping off smash by even attempting to make one.
 
All arcade fighting games are either Street Fighter or Tekken ripoffs. All military shooters are Call of Duty ripoffs. All hack and slash games are God of War ripoffs.

It ain't just a fallacy among platform fighters.

Garbage ripoff was meant as a joke; I know the genre needs to expand.
PSABR isn't where I want it to go, though, because I am of the opinion that, Smash or no, PSABR was just a really bad game.
There is also a very real chance that it's the reason that we can't turn off hazards, so that's kinda pretty really bad.

Wha-
We don't get to turn off stage-hazard because Sakurai's holding the shun anything remotely similar to a popular franchise belief that probably caused PSASBR to go under to begin with.

People have super heavy hindsight bias and aren't able to believe that anyone could possibly be innovative enough to have created a new genre/sub-genre after the early 90's.
Also the fact that the only good platform fighters are smash bros games and jump ultimate stars which doesn't help at all.
Honestly, we really really REALLY need some good competition for smash bros because while I love nintendo to death they've got no fucking clue how to make a competitive game.

How does that global smash thing even work? I just kind of doubt that over 1077745 have played Classic Mode so far.

"Pic of the day. Here's what's happening behind the scenes in one of the secret fighter's shooting moves. The object being held is called an NES Zapper. This is an accessory which was released for the NES outside of Japan. Now, this image was edited, but it's a scene from a secret fighter's reveal video."

But what if the 50 facts represent the 49 characters and the 50th fact is Ice Climbers
 
And what if the 50th fact is DDB is seriously grasping right now?
 
The 51st fact is that someone is getting hit with a broom soon.
