The Mutericator

oh god Who cares who's a noob and who isn't? A good idea is a good idea regardless of where it comes from.

If you don't like it, either give a reason or just leave the thread. Don't just troll. I suggest the overpowered weapons month - Dark Energy Gravity Gun, anyone? Other ideas: Awesome Levels (Favorite level or dungeon from any game - dibs on Phendrana Drifts, LOL) Iconic Weapons Iconic Powerups Obligatory Mascot I like the idea of Silent Protagonist Month.

And that's why we're developing the Metroid Prime games over here, amirite? They aren't just translators, please try again. Namco made Starfox Assault, actually. xD Huh? Clearly you don't understand how awesome the composer list is.

Nah, I never played BTO, so I guess I must have gotten confused with Yoshida. My mistake.

Weird. I always thought he was a girl for some reason... maybe I got him confused with the girl who sings the opening in Phantasia? I have no idea. Here's, again, to Golden Sun characters.

WHOALY SHIT SAKURABA? I didn't even see her the first time I went through that list... sweetness, this game's soundtrack is gonna rock ass, if nothing else. This is enough of an info dump for me. I'm happy.

Fuck this, I'll get up tomorrow morning and check it instead. I'm too tired to stay up waiting for this.

Please please please please come on oh come on oh COME ON GODDAMMIT!

Ditto. Ending is awesome.

Stop trolling, it's getting old.

Over and out.

I give it six hours before I check again. Then six more at 10pm, because then it will be noon over there and the site definitely will have launched by then. Japan's standard work hours are 9a-5p, right? Maybe we should check back in nine hours...

As if it matters? We can figure it all out from any pics and videos they put up on the Japanese site, and even if we can't, the news sites like Joystiq and Kotaku will surely have someone with it translated in minutes detailing everything. I'm getting a box with a red dot in Firefox, because the image isn't there or has too many requests for it... anyone see anything yet? EDIT: STARTING TODAY! (Japan Time) Whatever the fuck that means. They'd better not wait until later today to bring it up... what time is it in Japan right now?

Fifteen minutes left... Better play the Song of Double Time.

PLEASE DEAR GOD GIVE GANNYPOO HIS SWORD! Oh, and don't tie yourself to one character - I told myself Link was the only one I'd use in Melee, but he isn't even one of my mains anymore (just Pink Samus, Wedding Marth, and Fancy Falcon).

Ah, thanks. I sort of wish the thread hadn't gotten deleted, but all good things come to an end, I guess.

Man, I remember doing that SO LONG AGO... I can't even remember what it was for, either the Wii launch or E3 or something...

This just in: The big news is that they're releasing Lost Vikings on the Virtual Console. I'm not joking, I swear.

$20 says you're wrong. If they were delaying, they'd come right out and say it. My bet's on another trailer or a summer release.

Get FF5 for the GBA - not too much leveling, but a lot of things to unlock, and endgame I *think* it's possible to create an invincible character. I'm still testing that, though. (For the curious, Undead makes you immune to all physical attacks, the Force Shield blocks all Elemental magic. That means the only things in the game that can hurt you are Flare, Holy, healing spells, and normal attacks - equip a Ribbon and an Angel Ring to be immune to all status effects as well, and the Bone Mail gives a huge head start in defense - between the Force Shield and the Bone Mail, no one can hurt Butz anymore.)

In a thread of this size, I would think minor (three- or four-post) digressions are forgiveable, ne?

To be honest, it seems to happen to me more often as Falcon than any other character, and I'm not sure why. Ness' skyscraper stage (the one with the UFO... I think it's Fourside) has those two buildings on the right side, where it seems to happen more than on any other stage - save yourself using an up+B move to get over an edgeguarder, but then you don't have enough umph to get to the ledge on the center building, so instead you take the plunge because the game won't let you grab the left edge on the right building. Definitely doesn't happen every match, but it's certainly an annoyance I'd like to see fixed. EDIT: In response to the whole "moving stage" thing, I completely agree. Big Blue, despite its hecticness, is one of my all-time favorites (on the other hand, Brinstar and Brinstar Depths certainly aren't. Please let Samus' stages not suck this time...). Also, bring back Hyrule Castle and Temple as past stages. Just sayin'.

But you still aren't giving me a real, balance-related reason that you shouldn't be able to grab the edge from behind you. I can't think of a single character incapable of having an animation of swinging one arm behind them, grabbing the edge, and pulling themselves around to face it. Or, God forbid, turning around in midair before grabbing it. Mario's cape is one of the easier things to be an edgeguarding ass with. If they left it out because of the cape, I'm willing to trust their game balancing, but to be honest, that seems to me like a really tiny reason to do something as game-altering as not letting you grab the edge behind you. IRL it's not easy to do a lot of the things Melee characters do, like shooting a Super Scope behind your back. That's not really a great defense.

Dammit, they could have at least picked a better FF to put on the DS. Like 5 or 6 or something. Four was waaay too short.
