He'll probably explain himself in the next few days, since there seem to be a lot of game mode updates recently.

i am the doctor in my sig.
Pics ASAP

I think we found our new Falcon Punch.
Seriously.
Your avatar reminds me that there needs to be a Meteos assist trophy.
-
There are worse playable additions than Krystal. Like, as has already been mentioned, Slippy. A staff user would be neat, but I think I would prefer a female Fire Emblem character.
And Midna had better be in this game in some way. Best Legend of Zelda character in any of the games, by far.

If she's in, then Apple Kid and Orange Kid are in as a tag team.
I just shat my pants from the sheer awesomeness of this idea.
-
Done.
Now get cracking on that game.

I'm pretty sure it's fusion coloring.
Yeah, it's blue and yellow, as opposed to blue and red/brown.
I am so looking forward to PictoChat. I hope they have the Everybody Votes channel music on there too.

Consider this bought. I'm getting flashbacks to the first time I played Chrono Trigger.

I watched the movie all the time when I was a kid, read the book later, and saw the movie again recently. I really liked both, especially the book. Never saw the TV series, though.
I have to say that even after all this time, the movie was still freaky and violent as hell, and not just a distorted childhood memory.

I'm glad the individual character entrances at the beginning of a match are back.

Paper Mario - NO
A controversial decision, probably, but everything in Paper Mario is trumped by its sequel, which I would consider a must-have. The writing, graphics, battle system, and sound are all decent, but none are memorable. Thousand Year Door takes everything here and improves upon it markedly, rendering owning this game redundant.

I like the Japanese site-only Kirby song. Very Katamari-ish.

Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn
I love this game. In an era of awesome PC RPGs, this one stands out from the rest. As a D&D RPG, in has actual role-playing unlike the majority of current "RPGs".
The decisions you make have actual consequences, like which NPCs you'll be able to recruit into your party. Start acting like a dick with your goodie-two-shoes party halfway through the game and your party members will ditch you. In some cases, they'll even try to kill you. If you decide to woo one of the female members of your party, you can inspire catfights. The character interaction is phenomenal.
And, of course, there is the sheer amount of stuff to do. I spent an entire summer going from sidequest to sidequest, pretty much neglecting the main story. You never know what to expect. Going through some random dungeon and finding a black dragon at the end was an awesome (but deadly) surprise. Walking through a fort and discovering a chamber filled with a variety of golems, then figuring out the best way to tackle it so I don't get beaten into paste by the steel one, is extremely challenging and fun. And then I got to keep the fort as my headquarters.
Character customization is quite deep, and there are scads of sweet items to be found. From a throwing axe that acts like a boomerang, to a cloak that can make you invisible, to a cursed-girdle that changes the gender of your character (that was...unexpected) getting new loot is always an exciting experience.
And last, but definitely not least, is Minsc. The slightly brain-damaged Ranger/Berserker who is obsessed with putting the boots to evil is one of the most creative and hilarious characters ever. His animal companion, Boo, is a miniature giant space hamster (or so Minsc says). The other characters are also great personalities, but Minsc rises head and shoulders above them (literally, he's huge, as he enjoys reminding people). And now some Minsc quotes:
"GO FOR THE EYES, BOO, GO FOR THE EYES!"
"We will charge into the midst of the den of thieves and fling them about like pancakes! All that is glory shall be ours! And then breakfast."
"Boo is a fine friend, and powerful in ways you don't let yourself see! To insult Boo is to insult all things small that try hard. Oh, and Minsc as well."
(On giving a gold piece to a beggar)
"I would rather have given a sword. Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, but teach a man to fight and he can chow down on the meaty marrow of evil!"
Civil Servant: Er... you look like one of those men from Rashemen... you're not here to ask for anything are you? Last time that happened, things got messy...
Minsc: Why? In beloved Rashemen, if things don't work we encourage them with a loving backhand of productivity!
Throw in the expansion (which I haven't even scratched the surface of) and it gets even better.
YES

And the title of that would be... ?
Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei

Fallen Angel has that through like episode 26 or something.
I really want to see that comic.
Such an epic anime.
-
...But what if you're wrong? What if the ending changes each time based on which characters you have? What if the characters you pick up change every time based on who you started with? What if there are HUNDREDS of endings?!
Then SWEET.
-
I bet the world map is going to be huge.
Since you don't need to run through the story mode with every single character like in past games (because you pick up different characters through multiple paths) they don't really need to limit the length that much. This is going to be so epic.
-
I'm glad to see Snake's punch-punch-kick combo again. Classic. He looks like he'll be a blast to play.
I am curious as to how those conversations get implemented during a fight.
-
I am stuck at the end of August while my PS2 is unavailable. Sweet game, though. It exudes style and can be really hilarious at times.
-
I don't know why, but I was remembering some of the made-up custom games my cousins and I would play in the original Smash.
One involved playing on Sector Z, with beam sword being the only item and set to spawn very low. We would fight normally until a beam sword spawned, and then the goal was to hold on to it until an Arwing showed up and ride it off the screen (thus securing the alien technology from falling into the wrong hands), while everyone else prevented that from happening. Doing so would net the player 3 (or perhaps 5) points, which we would manually add to the point totals after the game. It may sound silly (mostly because it really is) but it was fun. Good times.
As for today's update, yay for trophies, boo for Ooccoo.

Does this mean I can cheer for Soren now?
You should be cheering for Volke. >
just kidding i like soren too
-
I'm just glad Lyn is in at all. This gives me hope for Hector. Assist trophy, playable character, whatever. I want an axe-user in the game.
-
My excitement just went up two or three notches. It was pretty high to begin with, but now I think I'm in actual danger of having a stroke. This is awesome.

On a related note, the soundtrack comes out in mid-September.

I can't understand how these people can pull off shoryukens instantly, unless they practice for hours on end.
