You know what the fuck was wrong with Smash 4?

The lack of impact it had.

Melee was all WOAH ADVENTURE MODE! ALL THOSE CHARACTERS! THAT GAMEPLAY! TROPHIES! etc

Brawl was all WOAH SUBSPACE EMISSARY! CUTSCENES! BOSS BATTLES! HOLY FUCK ALL THAT CONTENT! HOLY FUCKING UNGODLY MOTHER OF FUCKING FUCK SOLID SNAKE AND SONIC OH CHRIST MY DICK


And then what do we got "impacting" about Smash 4?

>uhhh... Mega Man and Pac Man are in! That's cool, I guess... 

Literally we got a Brawl sequel with better gameplay. 

There's nothing incredibly outstanding or impacting about Smash 4. 

It was just "another Smash"

title: Bought an ultimage gaming rig, and game is still laggy!
comment:
Just so you know I'm not lying, here are my specs. This was bought from Bestbuy and even setup by a Geeksquad computer expert:

- 24" Viewsonic flatscreen monitor
- Dell gaming mouse
- Windows Seven Ultimate
- Intel quadra processor
- Memory with 12 gigabytes of ram power
- One TERABYTE Hard Drive
- DVD+RW player
- Foxconn power supply with 400 wattage
- Sound Blaster sound card
- GE Force GT 520 video card

So after getting a $1500 gaming computer ($2100 after signing up for the extended warranty and 2 years of Geeksquad protection) the Star Wars game is STILL laggy! Not only that, but it can take up to 40 minutes just to log in if I do it after getting home from work.
I've verified with the Bestbuy salesperson that this computer should speed up my game, and if it's not then it's Star Wars' fault.
Nice job Star Wars, you fail at making an MMO.

Why do some people think the genesis games are better than modern sonic games when even this game, which is considered to be one of the lesser games, has more content, better physics , better level design and a better story, if that matters to anyone. Games like sonic rush completely destroy the genesis games in terms of quality bosses, music, level design, replayability and fun. Not every modern sonic is better but sonic & knuckles is obviously not the best in the series.

Why is that, of all competitive communities, Smash players are the most self-destructive and unsociable? I've literally witnessed countless moments where friendships have been ended over competitive smash battles, and usually over something trivial like the minutia of someone's combo habits or more general things like spamming. It's one thing if this was amongst even high schoolers, but I've seen this from people in their 20s. I once had the misfortune of getting screamed at by some autistic fucker in his own house because I was supposedly spamming Din's fire too much. 

Maybe I'm just generalizing, but it kinda seems that Smashfags in particular have very little going for their lives beyond their attachment to competitive Smash. I understand the same argument can be made for any game with a prolific multilayer community, but the point I'm trying to make here is that I tend to notice these traits more in Smash than others. Similar to how the Sonic franchise has way more autists under it's belt than, say, Mario.

So Sega is officially out of the console gaming industry.

What I find so strange though is it really didn't need to be this way. Why has Sega been so unable to move into 3D gaming? Why is it that basically 95% of post Genesis Sonic Games suck complete shit? 

Why is it that Sega and Sonic Team were unable to do what even fan games are able to pull off correctly, for example, Sonic 4/Generations being a "return" of old school Sonic, yet having complete shit-tier physics that should have been one of the first things you would perfect normally?

Sega's fall from grace has been bizarre, because it's like they shed all their talent and then just went full retard for the past 20 years.

Setting aside its autistic fujoshi hambeast fanbase aside, as well as games like Sonic Boom and Sonic 06; I'm genuinely worried now.

I've been an avid Sonic fan for a long time. Mainly of the video games. The fact that games like Sonic Colors, Generations, and Lost World exist sort of makes me lament the idea of sega going into retirement. And of course there's games like Panzer Dragoon, Skies of Arcadia, Jet Set Radio, etc.

Sega was my first video game system as well, so I could be mildly bias about this situation. Sonic is one of my favorite video game characters. Sure there are times where he's been poorly transitioned, written, and retconned, but I still care a lot for his existence. 

The fact that new Sonic personalities (discounting boom) from Colors and ahead turn from linkin park edgy to Saturday morning cartoon-inspired really made me optimistic. And now, who knows what's going to happen.

While Sonic 2 was in development, the question of what to name Sonic's new sidekick became a point of contention between Sega of America and Sonic Team. SoA wanted to name him Tails, while Sonic Team was set on naming him Miles Prower. To help Sonic Team see things their way, SoA wrote this short story about how Miles became Tails.

This is the story of Miles Monotail. Miles was your average four-year-old fox. He loved to play with his friends, but his friends weren't really his friends. Whenever they saw Miles they laughed and made fun of him.

Why? Well, Miles wasn't like all of the other foxes. Miles Monotail had two tails. And as kids tend to do when someone is different, they made fun of him. It didn't help that Miles sometimes tripped over his second tail and went rolling down the hill. Coordination was not one of Miles's virtues.

Because of the rough time that his friends gave him, Miles became very depressed.

One day he was walking along with his head hanging down when a blur and a whoosh crossed his path. There's only one person who could be moving that fast, and that is Sonic the Hedgehog.

Miles thought Sonic was the greatest person in the world. Miles wished that he could be as cool and coordinated as Sonic was. And most of all, he wanted to meet Sonic.

This was his big chance. Miles took a deep, deep breath and at the top of his lungs yelled out, "Sonic!"

The blur that was Sonic turned around and stopped in front of Miles. "You called?" said Sonic.

"Oh, Sonic, you're my hero," exclaimed Miles as he ran around and around Sonic. Well, you can guess what happened next--Miles tripped over his second tail and fell down. Tears came to his eyes.

Here are my opinions on video games, /v/.
I think they should make a new paper mario game for the wii u that follows the style of the second game. Sticker star and super paper mario, despite being good games individually, were SHITTY PAPER MARIO GAMES.

I don't think we need another sunshine. We need mario universe.

Elder scrolls 6 should be announced at e3, fuck you falloutfags, fallout < ES, plus you've gotten 2 games and a shit ton of dlc, which is still more than our petty 3 shitty dlc's and wOW an ONLINE FUCKING GAME who the fuck cares.

Fuck amiibos. Bullshit money scheme. And all of /v/ is buying right into it, too. Fuck you all.

WE NEED A NEW SONIC ADVENTURE GAME. With a chao garden and everything. They just need to spend more money on voice acting, the plot writing, and they need to fix the fucking camera, and the game would be great.

It's a ROMhack of fire emblem:Rekka no ken(known simply as fire emblem for all those non-weebs). Originally conceptualized by a forum called tactics universe, most of the characters are user-submitted. However, the group fell apart and one user, named Blazer, took over. As blazer was an edgy teenager who wrote the character of Kelik(whose music theme is called, and I'm not even exaggerating, "Cold steel"), the writing took a significantly stupider turn after part 1 ended and his part began.

That said, the music is fantastic still(even cold steel is Solaris Theme 2 from sonic '06), and he made a lot of really cool changes to the game, both large and small.

It's also one of the only completely finished ROMhacks out there. Definitely worth a play if you can endure the story-writing.

Does anyone else but me miss the golden age of Sonic, ~1998–2003? I was born in 97 and the defining Sonic games of my childhood were SA1, SA2, Heroes, and the Mega Collection. :D They fill me with immense pleasure and nostalgia, and make me bask in the fun-in-the-sun good times of the early 00s. :) This was before Sonic's reputation was tarnished, when it wasn't embarrassing to like him, and he was cool to EVERYONE...not just "autists." All of the kids in my school loved Sonic.

Sonic...was just the coolest thing alive back then. Badass rockin' music, awesome plots, slick graphics, memorable set pieces, and a great cast of characters. Back in my day, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles were the best of friends, unlike nowadays where Sonic acts like a jackass to Tails (in Lost World). Shadow was cool as fuck. Gamma hit me in the feels. ;_; Eggman came the closest he ever did to defeating Sonic in SA2.

And we can't forget Amy...she used to be my waifu back in the day. Hearing her theme song with the lyric "I adore you" made me blush. I even made a Valentine's Day card for her when I was about 7 years old. But I couldn't give it to her...since she wasn't real...so my mom snatched it from me, burned it, and forced me to flush the ashes down the toilet.

nowadays sonic sucks. it's a bunch of kiddy crap like sonic boom and sonic colors. badly mcnosehair? fart jokes? seriously? the guys who made sa2 need to come back to the sonic games, and make them more like an extreme cool dark badass anime. think dragon ball z. like the adventure games were. like every sonic game should be.

I don't think I harbor as much hatred for anything more than Sonic the Hedgehog. He tricked me as a child with his funky ass jams and cartoon series into believing he was an all right guy, but when you go back to visit him. You realize he's more like that uncle you never see anymore at family reunions because everyone found out he was dipping his junk in the punch bowl, and threatened to kick his ass if he kept doing it, so instead of fighting the urge to dip it again he just avoids the situation all together.

Name 1 good sonic game.

How do you play through platformers or games with an objective to reach the goal before time runs out like DKC, Mario Bros, Sonic, etc? Do you go for the best time, or try to collect everything? Or do you do both, but one before the other? Do you not care about either and just run through it?

I'm definitely a collectable whore with these types of games. I'll even admit that I never brought myself to finishing any of the DKC games despite liking them due to wanting so hard to get the collectables that I would fuck up and restart the level until I got them all. This would lead to me getting stuck on a level too much and just quitting. Made sure I got every golden Skulltula in Hyrule Warrios that was possible on my first playthrough of the story before finishing as well.

Sonic Adventure has the core of a great game, but it's marred by technical lack of refinement. It's functional, but I agree it could have used another 6 months of dev time, even when we're talking about SA International. It's functional on a basic level, but lacked polish, and while I think it was passable in 98-99, after 15 or 16 years, it feels like an experimental tech demo.

If they had been able to get SA2-level control and presentation refinement into SA1, it would be a completely different story.

title: ==PETITION FOR SONIC 3 REMASTERED==
comment:
Hey guys, a few of us in the Sonic community have organized a petition to bring a remastered version of Sonic 3 and we need as many people to sign the petition and send letters to Sega of Japan. Due to the language barrier it's difficult for non Japanese speakers to get the message across that we want the final game to be remade to complete the classic collection. We have the creators of the Sonic 1, 2, CD remake ready to go with making this game, we have a Japanese letter written out ready for printing, all we need is for people to fill out the forms and pass this petition around. You can find out more details and the letters to print in the links below. When you have finished please post a picture of your letter so we can boost morale.

Thanks.

LAST TIME
>nothing of import happened, I stopped because I felt like shit

what exactly am I playing?
It's a ROMhack of fire emblem:Rekka no ken(known simply as fire emblem for all those non-weebs). Originally conceptualized by a forum called tactics universe, most of the characters are user-submitted. However, the group fell apart and one user, named Blazer, took over. As blazer was an edgy teenager who wrote the character of Kelik(whose music theme is called, and I'm not even exaggerating, "Cold steel"), the writing took a significantly stupider turn after part 1 ended and his part began.

That said, the music is fantastic still(even cold steel is Solaris Theme 2 from sonic '06), and he made a lot of really cool changes to the game, both large and small.

It's also one of the only completely finished ROMhacks out there. Definitely worth a play if you can endure the story-writing.

>Didn't ziggy already play this?
apparently. I wasn't around when he did though, and I'm playing it blind.

Why don't they just copy and paste the engine from SA2 and make more Sonic and Shadow levels?
Or better yet, go back to making Genesis games and selling them as downloadables. Both of these options must to be cheaper and easier than wasting the time and resources necessary to create a new trainwreck every other year, and it's basically what the fans have been asking them to do for over a decade.

There was a thread a little bit ago complaining about the Boost mechanic in recent Sonic titles. The thread died before I could post my response, so I figured I'd post my rebuttal anyway:

>Boost takes away most of your control, which makes it bad.
Bad? That's why it's good, in my eyes. If you want to boost, you'd better be good enough at the game to handle the speed. You follow? Boost gets a bad rep because you can plow through enemies with it, but the doesn't mean you can plow through walls, or turns, or platforming sections.

The problem I think you're seeing here is that boosting is the ONLY way to go fast in Unleashed/Generations/Colors. In this aspect, I entirely agree. 

The problem here isn't the boost, it's that Sonic Team doesn't know how slope physics work anymore. To see how the Unleashed formula can work in a game with actual slope physics I encourage you to check out this fan game called Sonic GDK. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chJvzAaeBx8

This engine has both the boost mechanic as well as proper rolling physics. The idea is that, while Boosting is an easy way to get up to a decent speed, it will lock you at that speed with no hope of increase. However, if you use the terrain to your advantage and roll down slopes you can reach speeds that SURPASS the boost's.

So you all remember Taxman and Stealth's proof of concept video for Sonic 3 & Knuckles Remastered (http://youtu.be/Ct1cErthI6s). [Embed] There's now an energy and drive originating from Sonic Retro to which Taxman and Stealth are active members to petition and communicate with Sega to green light Sonic 3 & Knuckles Remastered. Though the movement only began recently it's very rapidly gathering speed and momentum. The movement comprises of a fan-supported petition and letter writing campaign targeted at Sega Networks.

Here's the latest updates and important links:

Sonic3Remastered.com; the site generated by the project's originator. http://www.sonic3remastered.com/
Change.org petition; currently standing at 1.2K signatures. https://www.change.org/p/sega-release-sonic-3-remastered
Stealth's Tumblr post; one of the primary developers of the previous ports showing their support. http://hcstealth.tumblr.com/post/110586472232/regarding-sonic-3

It's worth noting that in that third link Stealth who developed Sonic 1 and 2 Remastered with Taxman showed his support behind the movement with a lengthy blog post that goes into detail about the project and includes a pledge to support the movement's efforts to encourage Sega to green light the project. News coverage and press attention is thus far in its infancy though the movement has been covered by a couple of notable sites such as Touch Arcade, TSSZ News, Sonic Retro itself and Sega focused sites such as Segabits and Seganerds. The drive now is to generate as much press attention as possible and shine light on this project in the hopes that Sega will take notice. 

So would you be interested in playing a remastered version of Sonic 3 & Knuckles?

Shadow has a fucked up past. His best friend Maria was killed right before his eyes and then he was put to sleep for fifty years. How would you react in that situation? I like Shadow more than the annoying "gotta go fast!" Sonic character who tries to be funny all the time, but that's just my opinion.

Can we talk about Sonic 06 for a minute?
Don't get me wrong, it's an awful, awful game, but there are other sonic games that are just as guilty of some of the critical design flaws but seem to get a free pass because they're not as much of a buggy unfinished mess.

The controls are just as oversensitive and finicky as the adventure games, minus how fast you drop after the homing attack. Homing attack isn't 100% accurate and is sometimes responsible for your deaths, just like in the adventure games. And if I'm brutally honest, from a strictly design point of view the way 06 handled multiple characters (they all had essentially the same gameplay with different platforming mechanics) is BETTER than the adventure games, even if the execution of switching between them mid-level was off (but SA2 did that once too, although that was a different situation where it actually had purpose as a final level)

Heroes had multi-hit enemies that shot (semi)realistic bullets which only took a small amount of rings. That alone more than most things is what made the level design in 06 so bad, but at least most of the time they weren't physically stopping you from progressing through the level and you could just run past them.

All 3D sonic games up to the point of 06 were varying levels of mediocrity at best and shit at worst, 06 was just the lowest point but none of them are that good in the first place. Complaining about 06 but praising the other sonic games of that era is just ignorant.

Why do people not realise that this game was Sonic Adventure 3? It follows the exact same structure as SA2 (one campaign per group of characters, now with the new third future group) and combines it with the overworlds of SA1. There's even upgrades for the characters, except instead of finding them in the overworld or levels you just buy them at a shop. Not to mention the recurring elements of boss battles where you play as both sides, and recycling the other boss battles.

Literally everything about the game points to it being Sonic Adventure 3, but they changed the name when they knew it would be shit. How do Sonic fans not realise this and still ask for SA3? [spoiler]The SA games were mediocre at best anyway, there's no reason to continue them[/spoiler]

Why is this allowed? Even amongst those who disliked Brawl, people admit that he was a unique addition to the roster, a surprise, and like him as a character. He's Snake. Why would Sakurai actively choose to cut him from the roster and not bring him back?

Before you say
>But Kojima hates Nintendo/has nothing to do with Nintendo
That's not true, he asked Sakurai to put him in in a Dewrito Pope interview. Ubisoft if anything has been trying to distance themselves from Nintendo, with Rayman Legends no longer being exclusive, delaying Watch Dogs, finishing a game for the console but not releasing it, and making comments about Nintendo that were less than savory.

I'm not trying to knock on Ubisoft or Rayman, don't get my intent wrong. I just legitimately don't understand why they would not put in Snake and why they would choose to go with Rayman.

Of COURSE it was bad.

Sega is responsible for greenlighting the project in the first place. I know that. But Sonic Team's only job was overseeing it in the same way Nintendo "oversaw" the Zelda CD-i games.

Sonic Team has had some massive failures, yes, but even stuff like Lost World and Unleashed showed a sense of direction and creativity. They aren't resonsible for this train wreck.

Can we discuss Sonic 06?
I just beat it myself, and to be honest it was a lot easier than I expected. I didn't get a single game over in the shadow, silver or final campaigns (even with the death eyes, I survived amy and shadow with 0 lives left on my first go) but got 4 game overs during the Sonic campaign. I can honestly say I had more fun with 06 (in a masochistic way) than Heroes (which is pure shit), but from a logical point of view I still think Heroes is a 'better' game (but to be honest, not by much)

It's a terrible game in its current state, but even if it was finished it would still be mediocre at best - just like the rest of the sonic adventure games (and 06 was pretty clearly meant to be SA3 at one point). Most of the big flaws with the game's design regarding how multiple characters are handled, enemies with life bars and even just the oversensitive controls are taken straight out of the Adventure games and Heroes, but sonic fans like to ignore that and channel all of their hatred just onto 06 when other games are just as guilty. 06 is basically if they took everything that was bad about dreamcast era sonic and made it worse (but put a couple potential improvements in there), and then left the game unfinished so it was full of loading screens and framerate drops

How long did you take to realize this game is absolute shit for competitive play?

That's it /v/, I think i'm done with this game. I have over 2000 matches and 65% victory rate, but i'm not having fun anymore. The gameplay rewards way too much spammers and cheap tactics.

I think it's finally time to officially declare the Sonic franchise dead. Sonic Boom did so much more damage than Sonic 06 did to SEGA and back then SEGA almost fired their entire Sonic Team.

Sonic is dead unless Nintendo comes in and buys the IP. Which may or may not happen.

How to play Super Smash Bros. 1v1: A character guide for faggots.

>Mario: Shield, wait for your opponent to attack you, grab, and throw. Finish this with F.L.U.D.D while they're recovering so they can't get back on the stage. Make sure you use plenty of fireballs. They make everything so much cooler.

>Peach: Side-B. Shield. Repeat.

>Bowser: Play like shit, who even cares you're going to win with Bowsercide anyway.

>Sonic: Press the B button. Run around. Repeat. OR alternatively, just play as Sonic as you normally would.

> Kirby: Hover above the stage, use Down B. OR alternatively, Hover above the stage, use Up-B.

Wario: Bike around the stage and prevent all opposing attacks.

Rosalina: Stand at the edge of the stage, charge up Luma, proceed to use star bits and irritate/Spam the opponent into early retirement.

King Dedede: Use Gordo. Shield. Ledge-guard with said Gordos. Repeat.

Zelda: Spam Din's Fire until the opponent wants to kill themselves.

Samus/Link/Toon Link/Duck Hunt Dog: Stand at the edge of the stage and just use any special attack. Don't bother memorising which is which, just press B. Bonus points for shield grabbing.

Villager: GYROIDS FOR ALL.

Charizard: FLARE BLITZ FOR ALL.

Robin: Charge up the book-lazer. Release book-lazer. Repeat.

Shulk: ''I SEE IT!''

Ness: PK Fire everyone/everything until only charred corpses remain. Extra points for easy grabs/smash attacks.

Little Mac: Charge punches until the opponent is KO'd. Alternatively, Side-B (try and avoid the inevitable ledge-death)

Palutena: Auto-reticle 

Bowser Jr: Spam cannon balls, force opponent into a shield, attack, repeat. 

Meta Knight: Use Meta Knight thinking he's still god-tier. Die. Alternatively, play as literally anyone else and get a more fulfilling experience.

Other characters not included due to a severe lack in spam opportunities/due to an actual, balanced moveset. Disagree? Make your own I don't know.

Prove me wrong. These are all of the problems the game has. Way too many defensive options and a few select characters are unpunishable flowcharters who think they're hot shit because they watched one of Shofu's/Lythero's videos.

It's undisputed fact that everyone who plays the characters under the "needs to be removed" tab AND "needs to be nerfed" tab are insufferable fucking niggers. Do not play with them.

title: DLC Stages for Smash Bros.
comment:
Hello, I work for Nintendo of America and I know that comment is usually a red flag for all those fake leaks out there but I'm not about that crap. I'm going to tell you upcoming DLC stages, there are some characters as well that I don't want to spoil but I may in the future so watch this space. Also please excuse any grammatical errors as I am in a bit of a rush to get this out as if I get caught doing this I will get in trouble. I'm mainly posting this because of how they mistreat me anyway.

Ok so first we have the new stages:
Mt. Chimney from Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (3DS)

Bowser's Castle from Mario Kart 7 (3DS)

Bowser's Castle from Mario Kart 8 (Wii U)

Spagonia from Sonic Unleashed (Wii U)

Casino Night Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (3DS)

Light Labs from the Megaman Series (Wii U) 

Amazon Rainforest from the Megaman Series (3DS)

Haunted Boardwalk from Pac-man World 2 (Wii U)

Manic Mines from Pac-man World (3DS)

Next up we have some returning stages:

New Pork City from Brawl (Wii U)

Fourside from Melee (Wii U)

Mushroom Kingdom from Melee (Wii U)

Mushroom Kingdom II from Melee (3DS)

Hanenbow from Brawl (3DS)

Mario Bros. from Brawl (3DS)

Additionally, Magicant will be coming to the Wii U whilst Town and City comes to the 3DS

Thanks for reading, I know this is extremely hard to believe and you can choose to believe or not, I know text leaks are not very reliable so I will soon post pictures, as stated before I am in a rush right now and I did likely miss out a few stages too. I do not know the DLC release date yet but it seems it will all come in one big pack.

comment:
Is it just me or is it obvious that maybe, just maybe, Japanese game developers like Shigeru Miyamoto, who are respected and admired for the crazy zany imaginative worlds they craft (Katamari Damacy, Sudo 51, etc.) are closet fans of magic mushrooms?

Dude grew up in Japanese countryside.
Explored forests and caves as a child.
Mushrooms are abundant and hunting them is very popular.
He's an avid gardener.

And then you look at a game like Yoshi's Island, and a level containing enemies that cause you to experience sonically, sensorially, and visually the effects of LSD.

tl;dr Japanese game developers eat shrooms.

If a game has Special/Bonus Stages that require you to find them, which do you prefer?

1) A minigame that is a completely different genre than the main game. (Sonic series)
2) Levels with similar gameplay but you play off a certain gimmick that may or may not have been featured during the main game. (Street Fighter, Psycho Waluigi)
3) Levels with the same gameplay, but they're extremely difficult. (Super Mario Galaxy 2)

Whether or not you get a reward is optional.

So i made a thread here a couple nights ago about how i was attending my first smash tourney at a local con this weekend and i got some really good advice from you guys.
ended up winning actually.
it was about 18 people with me playing mostly Duck Hunt through most of it. 
i ended up playing a really good shiek in the final, best of five, and lost the first round but took the next as DH and the next two as Roy.
the prize was a choice between a diddy or peach amiibo and i picked diddy because meme-value i suppose.

hypest moment was ending my semi-final set as a ganondorf vs a sonic. last stock, both of us, with me at a high percent and him at zero.
got the uptilt, broke the shield, then casually scooted him over to the edge for a reverse warlock punch.
crowd ate it up.

anyway, thanks, /v/. i feel like i owe it to you guys. 
any tourney/smash stories you wanna share?

I read it and I think is a good book about the history of Sega vs Nintendo during the 90's. Although it's a little biased because the main character is Tom Kalinske from Sega. But besides that, it's a nice book that tells about one of the most interesting parts of the video game history. (Genesis, Super Nintendo, Sonic vs Mario, SOJ vs SOA, NOJ vs NOA, Sony, Saturn, N64, etc.)

My challenge to you, /v/: Make up a concept for a Sonic game.

Your stipulations are:
- Must use the modern Sonic design
- The concept must have a story beyond "Eggman is after the chaos emeralds/kidnapped some animals"
- You have to use at least five of Sonic's friends
- Your choice for gameplay style is modern boost, classic momentum, or "new style", and if what, you must specify

No shitposting. Good luck.

In Uprising he started off as a rebellious doppelganger that barely anyone took seriously (like Shadow in Sonic Boom) but after the three year gap where Pit was gone he seemed to mature into a much more friendly-rival to Pit and Palutena (more akin to a character like Knuckles, or Shadow on a good day). It genuinely seemed like he was the only character who actually had an arc in that game.

Why'd they have to hit the reset button on him?

I want everyone to consider this. I have been doing a lot of research and looking at history of the past two decades there is an interesting development. 

It seems that Sonic The Hedgehog seems to synchronize with important events in our universe. I think is because Sonic actually became existant when the game was created and planet Mobius is in parallel universe to ours. This is why when major events happen on Mobius, earth is also affected by the rubbing of our two universes against each other. 

For example, lets look at 1991, then year that Sonic The Hedgehog first came out on the Genesis. This was a year that changed Earth in a big way. The Soviet Union collapsed and computers started to enter into the public. In 1999, Sonic Adventure was released and this was also the turn of the century and the beginning of a period of crisis. Sonic Adventure 2 was released in 2001, the year of 9/11 when everything changed for good.

So it seems that events that occur on Mobius and are translated by video game into our world also show up in our universe as events happening here? It seems to be so.

So realizing this...I think we can actually work this two ways. What if we create a sonic game that will change events in Mobius and then it will reflect and change events here? Just make a Sonic game about good times where there is no conflict and only happiness. Then it can reflect back into our world!

Notice how Sonic-R was released in 1997, and it was a peaceful game and 1997 was also a time of good economy and relative good time...because it was a game about racing and peace and nothing terrible was happening on Mobius so it was not reflected into our world!

What do you think?

Let's take a break from the shitposting to look at this shit.
>Last year, Archie Comics announced that they were planning another crossover between their Mega Man and Sonic the Hedgehog comics in 2015. The big twist with Worlds Unite is that the traditional Mega Man and Sonic casts will be joined by characters from the Mega Man X and Sonic Boom games. But as it turns out, even that just scratches the surface of this epic crossover. World Unite will bring together a number of popular franchises from both Sega and Capcom.

Looks like it might be Super Sonic Warriors 3. Or similar to Ultimate Butodon for the DS which was actually a solid game for being on an underpowered handheld.

I'm not interested in a Xbone.

Thing is I can't make up my mind. While the Wii U is free online and has a whole bunch of spectacular games, bayonetta, smash, hyrule warriors, sonic lost world, etc.

The PS4 is about to receive bloodbourne and I have a really soft spot for FF15, KH3 and the Gran Turismo series. Plus a nut for the souls games.

Honestly. I'm leaving this up to you. What should I get?

Okay, let's please keep this civil with no mention of Chris-chan.

Why are Sonic fans so rabid? In before you say, Sonic has no fans he does because SEGA keeps pumping out game after game. I've never really had a problem with the fanbase and never noticed them to be negative until recently. 

I was watching a YouTube video about what SEGA has been up to ever since Dreamcast failed, the guys in the video reviewed the "newer" Sonic games from 2006 to Generation and said some positive things about the game but said ultimately they are bad games. And because of that the comments were littered with hate and the dislikes were all over the rating of the video.

How did Sonic get so popular and why is he still popular?

Mew Two is finished, aside from some balancing tweaks. Mew Two will not be available for purchase immediately after being released.

I haven't played the Game Cube Smash Bros video game, but my coworkers say he is very similar to how he is in that.
In addition to the Mew Two character, there will be a "Reboot Pack". This includes a costume for Pacman, Megaman, and Sonic. The costumes are "Ghostly Adventure Pacman", "Star Force Megaman", and "Toon Sonic". This pack will cost $1.20 on the shop.

Reminder to those of you (at least Americans) born in 1996 who keep making/participating in nostalgia threads: when you say how you miss "old games”, you're not really thinking of classic (aka 90s) games – you're thinking more of casualized shit like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, Simpsons Hit n Run, Halo, Half-Life 2, Metroid Prime, Kingdom Hearts, Battle for Bikini Bottom, Crash Twinsanity, Sonic Adventure 1 & 2, and Miniclip/Newgrounds/Armorgames games.

Also, a lot of you say you miss “old Cartoon Network” and start threads about Mucha Lucha, but I’m sorry to tell you – you’re not thinking of old CN! You’re thinking more endless re-runs of Foster's and Billy & Mandy, total and utter shit like "Squirrel Boy", "My Gym Partner is a Monkey", and "Camp Lazlo", a gay fucked-up version of Cartoon Cartoon Fridays with live-action hosts, and those assfucks Fred Fredburger and Cheese acting like retards.

Back around 2000–2003, Cartoon Network used to have the best of the best: ToonHeads, Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing, The Brak Show, Sealab 2021, LUPIN III, Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Lab, I. AM. FREAKING.

One of the best recent sonic games. Bioware could have done so much more in a sequel.

Come to think of it a Bioware/SEGA crossover RPG in the vein of Kingdom Hearts could be really good.

>"You should think of the Vive as the first in the same way there are multiple Steam Machines," Valve president Gabe Newell told me this morning. In other words, Steam VR is an open platform supported by Valve.

Ok... So who's the next manufacturer to make a VR HMD for Steam?

Asus? Panasonic? LG? 


>"The way that you'll eventually connect with HMDs will look like a successor to Link (in-home streaming), 'cause you want to start decoupling from wires and stuff like that," Newell said. Currently, wireless, streamed VR isn't possible. Well, at very least, it's not possible with any tech that's not far out of the reach of consumers.

>"Can you maintain that [low latency over wireless]? That may end up being a Wi-Fi router problem as much as anything else, where we may have to go to other spectrums. We're doing research on 60GHz spectrum, implementations of those kinda things. Because you're right, at some point you have to solve it. But the nice thing is it's a once you've solved it, you're done kinda problem. It's not an ongoing task. The brain doesn't change. The brain is always stuck at 20ms; you don't have to go progressively faster to improve the experience."

Why is this game so fucking shit?

I've tried so hard to enjoy this, but I really can't. I'm through Hero story and seriously the only thing I enjoyed was the first level with Sonic.

If this is a quality game, than Sonic '06 is the second coming of Sonic Jesus.

As much as you fags like to bitch and complain that Sonic is dead, you don't ever bother to note the other characters in his franchise.

This is especially hilarious given how much you cream over Tails' Adventure which is very far removed from the standard Sonic gameplay.

Quick question: Would a PS3 be suitable for an eight-year-old boy? I mean, do you think he would be able to understand how to operate the console well enough, routinely charge the controller, figure out how to access digital games, etc.?

I was thinking of giving my console to a kid who lives next door. His family doesn't have much, and I hardly play any PS3 titles anyway.

I have some E and T titles that I think his parents would be okay with, like Sonic the Hedgehog, The Sims and a few others. I'll just have to list the M games on eBay or something.

Games that were actually pretty good and got way too much hate.

Pic related is one. Was pretty enjoyable and the daytime segments were awesome. The night time missions were mediocre, but it got better when you unlocked more combos for Werehog Sonic. I also think Unleashed probably has the best soundtracks of any Sonic game, or that it's pretty high up there among the series. It's definitely my favorite 3D Sonic game.

This was, in my opinion, the last Sega game from the Sonic game universe that had an edgy feeling to it. Adventure 2/Battle had a similar feeling, but Shadow the Hedgehog extended that feeling.

Good news for Sony and EA, not so good for some others:

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2015-03-12-stock-ticker-sony-soars-microsoft-slumps-and-ea-reclaims-its-crown

At the other end of the spectrum, Capcom investors are largely happy with the company's progress in terms of cost-reduction and moving over to digital distribution, with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate being the stand-out title for the company right now. Sega Sammy's story, meanwhile, is an interesting one. The company's results are increasingly divorced from the videogames business - last year it suffered hugely from the will-they, won't-they drama surrounding the Japanese parliament's decision to pass legislation permitting the construction of casinos in Japan (in the end, the legislation was shelved, but may be revived later this year). This year, Sega Sammy has popped up partially on the realisation that it may have been undervalued last year, and partially on the positive news surrounding a co-venture to construct casinos in South Korea, a country widely expected to become a major centre for gambling resorts in the next few years. Where does Sonic figure in all this? He doesn't, really; Sega Sammy is barely a videogames company any more, but as long as the Sega IP catalogue remains useful and valuable to the firm's other enterprises, any talk of spinning off the videogames businesses (including the excellent overseas offices and studios) will be very premature.

> Sammy aren't quite done asset-stripping Sega just yet.

"I love how Pokemon Gen 2 introduced evolving by trading with a held item, but I hate Gen 4 for doing the same thing. I also hate the Physical/Special split because it completely unbalanced the game. Also Pokemon is impossible to play competitively because it's not made to be competitive."

What kind of new future would Silver live in?

>no armor
Remember all of those unique and interesting armor sets from the Souls games? Too bad, here’s coat number 15. Need something a little more protective against giant monsters? Too bad, bullets render armor useless. 

>no magic
After games like Dragon’s Dogma, there’s no excuse not to have that level of magic in fantasy games. Then again, that’s probably outside FROM’s programming capabilities. “B-b-b-but gadgets!” Gadgets will never be as cool as magic. 

>shields crippled technobuffalo’s “bloodborne will feature shields made of paper mache and gumdrops”
 So instead of creating shields that could coincide nicely with certain weapons, like shields with firearm holes or holders (or even a goddamn gun shield), they have to make shields garbage for no reason. Sucks for people who are interested in shields. 

>spam R1 to heal
Low on health? Just spam the attack button and get all of your health back. “B-b-b-but you could just chug estus all day!!” Try injecting blood vials all day, you can stack those up like candy. 

>guns do little damage
a lead ball going subsonic speeds deal less damage than a sword? Watch any gameplay footage, guns never deal anywhere near as much damage as a sword, so why no armor? 

>pay for online
I cant even…

>less than 30fps
This wasn’t acceptable in 2014, it’s not acceptable in 2015. And you KNOW there will be heavy frame drops throughout the game.

So, I just finished Sonic Adventure 2 and I really want to know why/how anybody likes this game, because after City Escape ended I literally had absolutely no fun whatsoever outside of this one time in a Rouge level when I found some cardboard boxes I could push around.

I really can't find anything good to say about this game except for the soundtrack and even then, it's a lot less varied than SA1's soundtrack.

>those fucked up physics
>it-just-works level design
>shit animations
>shit texture work
>almost no lighting at all in any maps
>repetitive gameplay
>horrible enemy placement
>all of Hero story

Somebody tell me why this game is praised so much. This is entire game is horrible, inexcusable garbage. It's beyond "flawed but enjoyable", it's just downright bad.

As a fan of DMC, I enjoyed this game for what it is. It has more attitude, better environments and more fleshed out characters than DMC4 

Is anyone else here sometimes ashamed to be a DMC "fan" because of the rabid "le carayzee" fags who started with DMC4 and only jack off to combo videos and "uncle Dante"?

Not saying the combat in DMC4 isn't good, or that theres anything wrong with people who like to style in DMC (Im one of those people myself definitely) but those self proclaimed "fans" are some of the most obnoxious, elitist retards Ive ever had the displeasure of seeing in action. Literally the same thing as Punished Chris flipping Sonic Boom games over in the shelves so that people can't see the blue arms 

Btw, Langdon, Kamiya, Mikami and Itsuno have all said that DmC is a pretty fun game. Every true fan of DMC as a whole (not just adhd combat kids) appreciate DmC as a goofy alt universe spin off

Tails sat there in the piss and grimble of a warm winter afternoon. The wind outside smimmered loudly as he again looked towards the blue hump of a man sitting by the firepalce. 

"Tails", the blue hump stammered. "Tails, woud you like to experience the warmth of the fire that is currently crisping and crackeling in the fore-de-font at the heel of my loins?"

"No", Tails replied, knowing in a crimpy manner that this was a trick question, and only misery awaited him at the wrong answer. "No, I have had not yet my fill of the brrs and chills that confuscate my form". On this day, however, it was Tails who had messed it up.

"Unbearable Smitt!!", Sonic creamed. "I'll have you wrot up in the king's books for this! Your fim-fallow days of Hontlebont will be but a forgotten dream wen they are done with you!!"

"No", replied Tailes once more. "For you see, i have the sceptre here in hand"

Sonics face was that of a whimsy willow on a pale evening. He had not foreseen Tails ever getting his crumbling nastiness on the sceptre. It was there that the power shifted,, or so the legend goes...

Why? Look at Sega, they're making far more money than they ever had and Sonic is a huge and immense success on mobile. With just one game they managed to get 100 million people to play the app. This is with Sonic, who is far less popular than any of Nintendo's characters.

Once Nintendo comes in with their mobile games that will revolutionise the industry with real fun games, there's no doubt that apple and google will be begging Nintendo for more of their games since they will be the big guys who have names as big and more recognisable as Disney on mobiles making greats games.

This is going to be an amazingly bright future for Nintendo, they're going to conquer the entire gaming market right under everyone's noses.

Hi guys, I open this tread to ask you tips about emulation on my old DS (lite ofc), and to talk about your favorite games on both GB(color)/GBA/DS.

I know you can transform this white beauty in a super retrogame machine, the problem is how. I have found this link http://www.howtogeek.com/119273/how-to-turn-your-nintendo-ds-into-a-retro-game-machine/ but I dunno how much accurate are the info on flash cards, this article was written in 2k12 so many things could have changed.

Now games.
On advance side I recommand to you Sonic battle advance, is a game reported in some charts but you really have to play it to enjoy a very good gameplay and a nice story filled with feels.
I also suggest you medarot (some may remember the anime). Medarot AX is a good armored core in 2d, and this would be enough to download a rom and give it a try.

On DS I have saved some games from a previous tread.
I start with a nice upload from an anon of that tread, Ace Attoney Investigations 2 in english with DesuME https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B__tmDSmgDKVR1JJTTRBVklUXzA/view

Now the list if you want some intresting to download right away (one + for each anon who enjoyed the game):
Infinite space +++++++
Sayonara Umihara Kawase ++
Radian Historia 
Lost Magic
999 +++
Trace memory
Solatorobo red the hunter (furry) ++
The world ends with you ++++
FFT A2 (seem to suck)
Henry hatsworth +++++
Lock's quest
Contra 4 (hard as supes balls) +++ 
Time hollow
Lost in blue
Knights in the nightmare (mb still only jap) ++
ASH - Archaic Sealed Heat
Flower sun and rain (Suda 51) ++
Hotel dusk ++
Chosoju_Mecha_MG (only jap) +++
crazy machines
Puzzle quest +
Elite Beat Agents +++
Lunar knights +
Trauma center +++

I also suggest ultimate jump stars, if you have a buddy to play with.

Thanks for your attention anon.

THEY say never go back for a reason.

This was a great game more than ten years ago – a release to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Sonic franchise in 2001.

It was the final Sonic title to come out on Sega hardware and was the best game on the Dreamcast.

You get what you expect with Sonic. Speed, rings and corny voices.

Not something to rush out and get, unless you’re feeling particularly nostalgic, or you harbour a determination to play all of the Sonic games.

Guys, I just remembered... I used to have a picture of sonic licking blood of his fingers as an icon for my steam profile when I first got one.

I made a steam account as a young teen, and I needed an icon. I had recently played Sonic Rush on the DS, and I loved it (mainly for the music), so I decided to use a picture of sonic. But I didn't want it too look childish, so I got one with him licking blood off his fingers in a picture (which was drawn quite well admitted). 

I've never been obsessed with Sonic at all, I enjoyed Sonic Rush and The mega Collection, but that's it. Even then, I'm mainly play Comix Zone in the mega collection as an extra, and most of my time with Rush was spent listening to the in game jukebox, since the music was from the same guy who made the Jet Set Radio soundtrack. One track included here.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR5EcOETJSg

Do you think it's too late for me? Did I become autistic as soon as I chose that icon? Or is there hope for me? I've never cared about sonic much, though I did enjoy the early games. But now that I've seen how many autists have sonic as an icon, I'm fucking worried that as soon as I put it as my icon, I instantly became a diagnosable aspie.

title: "Casual Games" and You
comment:
I believe this board is long overdue for a serious discussion, without false-flags and strawmans, for reasons to complain about a game. Years ago many games you had were "casual". My definition will be that what makes a game casual are a list of things such as
>relatively low skill ceiling
>high replayability
>simple and engaging mechanics (this means no soft caps, nuances (stability distribution in AC, IV's in Pokemon, ect)
>aggresive marketing towards unskilled demographics like "Prepare to Die" DS2, live action commercials like Skyrim/Halo Reach/AC: Unity
If we can agree with this definition, I want you to think of some of your very first games you played. Most of you likely played arcade games like Pacman, Metal Slug or Street Fighter. Very popular games that had a low skill ceiling (no memorizing long combos) and very much "Pick Up and Play". Even games like Super Mario and Sonic were relatively casual back then, not saying all though.

You were once a casual gamer, the majority are casual. It's always been that way, so what's the deal with games being casual now?

Is it less fun to spend less time playing the game? Wouldn't you consider it an opportunity cost to not pander to you, the minority? I want your honest opinion in this thread about why/why not you may feel this way.

Title: Sonic Freedom (Working)
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Wii U
Story: Dr Eggman manages to collect 6 of the 7 Chaos Emeralds and uses them to awaken an ancient mummy-like civilisation, to help him build Eggman Land. Sonic has to find the last emerald to stop Eggman from completing the process and reviving the "Pharaoh King."

Gameplay/Setting: The game reminds me a lot of Prince of Persia. Sonic starts off exploring the outskirts of the tomb where Eggman stored the emeralds. You can direct Sonic against a wall with the analog stick and he'll cling to it, allowing him to run along walls and climb up indentations/cracks. It's a HUGE improvement over Lost World's parkour system and it's a lot of fun.

When Sonic defeats enemies he collects their souls (I'm not kidding) which lets him level up and unlock new abilities. You can choose to increase your speed, acceleration, jump height, etc similar to Secret Rings. Level design is similar to Generations only more open, a slight emphasis on exploration but still fairly linear.

You'll get a teaser trailer fairly soon but won't see much gameplay until E3.

Who do you guys main? Since I got smash 4, I always played with Samus and even if many people say she sucks, I actually did pretty good with her online, at some point winning almost all of my battles, though my only real problem was [spoiler]FUCKING BANANAS[/spoiler] and Sonic, Megaman and Ness were fucking tedious to fight (although it was awesome to blast a Ness that thought e could absorb missiles with his shield).

After two month of not playing it I come back and maybe I'm rusty or the level increased but I'm having some trouble to win, losing like half of the battles. What's your opinion, did the overall level increased?

I had no idea this game even existed until someone on /v/ mentioned it in a Sonic thread the other day. Tried it out for four bucks and so far it's fucking great.

I do classic since I couldn't care less about the story, but it's nice that that option is there for those who care. The gameplay is fun so far and it has a great soundtrack. I understand why it's similar to Sonic, and I appreciate the similarities a lot. I loved Sonic as a kid and it doesn't take a genius to see how shitty most Sonic games are these days. I guess if SEGA is unwilling to keep pumping out Generation titles or 2D Sonic games, games like Freedom Planet will fill the gap.

Anyone else like this game or have other good games for classic Sonic fans?

Finish line: 500
Action timer to 15 seconds: Hurry the fuck up and AFKers get no mercy and will be kicked
Double classes all the time - triple classes during party mode
BANNED CLASSES
This is an experiment to see if it improves the game, here are the tiers of banned classes

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

Regular banned
Necromancer - Either path they take is a rape train at endgame, with either skeletons stealing all of your items or diseasoids constantly keeping you dead. Banning this to see how the game is without easy item theft.
Sorcerer - Because of telekenesis, seeing how this game will change without easy theft or item locking (enchanter)

3 classes unbanned, merchant, assassin, and saboteur

EVENT GUIDE:

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses, and never visit the place again. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick, less fun than other events.

title: Sonic Freedom and regarding the recent Sonic leaks
comment:
Ok, let me get this straight. If you guys recall a few months ago, there was a Sonic Runners leak. The one that talked about Sonic Boom, and then said that the next Sonic Team project is Sonic Runners.

I am that guy who posted that. 

Then there was a post about Unleashed Gameplay in Runners, that's not true as you all know as the game came out and is an endless sidescrolling runner.

However, that one and many other Sonic Runners leaks were made by people who I know and they leaked real information, along side fake info. Don't ask me why, but they had some fun with it.

Then there was a post about a so called "Sonic Freedom" game coming to consoles. 

Sonic is not done with consoles yet, most people didn't seem to realize that only Sega of America is being effected, Sega of Japan is fine and good.

That guy who leaked Sonic Freedom, I don't know who he is but he was correct. Sonic Freedom is the next Sonic game in the main series, separate from Boom. He also said some true points about the game, Sonic and Tails are playable, and the game will have a trailer soon.

Sonic Freedom is Sonic Team's big project that they have been working on since finishing Generations. Sonic Runners was made on the side, Freedom is the next main game that will be released on Xbox One, PS4 and Wii U.

Have a nice April Fools Day. You can decide whether or not this is a joke.

Fox will lose his jab lock combo and receive added frames on his punch will slow down it's recovery to prevent him following his 2 jabs with a tilt or down smash. 

Same thing with Shiek
Sheiks f-air will also have more ending lag to prevent follow ups

Little Mac, Luigi, Yoshi and Rob will have more ending lag animation

Rosalina's Luma will attack slower 

Sonic will lose his Spin Dash combos

Ganondorf's Flame choke will have to wait 2 seconds for it to work to prevent the chain effect. 

Diddy's aerials will be nerfed.

Falcon and Ness and Little Mac will lose their dash combos

The small amount of hitstun moves that exist in the game will be lowered. 


Sakurai will make it more difficult for follow ups 
pretty much any technique other then spamming up tilt or down throw to X that has been discovered will be removed in up coming balance patch.

Sakurai will make it more difficult for follow ups
Pretty much any technique other then spamming up tilt or down throw to X that has been discovered by the competitive smash community will be removed in up coming balance patch.

Fox will lose his jab lock combo and receive added frames on his punch will slow down it's recovery to prevent him following his 2 jabs with a tilt or down smash.

Same thing with Shiek coming the first two jabs into the side tilt combo to up smash. 

Sheiks f-air will also have more ending lag to prevent follow ups

Little Mac, Luigi, Yoshi and Rob will have more ending lag animation


Rosalina's Luma will attack slower

Sonic will lose his Spin Dash combos

Ganondorf's Flame choke will have to wait 2 seconds for it to work to prevent the chain effect.

Diddy's aerials will be nerfed.

Falcon and Ness and Little Mac will lose their dash combos

The small amount of hitstun moves that exist in the game will be lowered.

How does this shit benefit the casuals who only play once a month!?!

I loved how disppointed everyone was when the first gameplay of Xenoblade X came out and it was the most underwelming thing in existence givin the setting and atmosphere. Then SmtxFe was just shown and it have barely anything to do with either franchise, I guess Atlas pulled a Sega like when sonic boom was a wiiu exclusive. Now the new fire emblem is going to be split into to fucking games half through them and nintendo expects people to pay for content they are locked out of. How can any be on nintendo?

So who'd you vote for in the Smash Ballot? I voted for Bomberman. I feel like he's the main person everyone should vote for. It's kind fucked up how he hasn't had a single appearance despite how old he is. Think about this for a second: he's only 2 years older than Mario and he's going to be celebrating his 30th anniversary this December. And despite all that, he's gotten nothing.

It doesn't matter that he's third-party, Snake & Sonic have proven that's meaningless. He's as much of the Nintendo party as any loved & well-known Nintendo characters, in my opinion. I feel like we need to take a step back and ask why he wasn't in Melee, fuck, in Smash 64. Save for the Wii U, he's had a game release on every Nintendo system to date. It's crazy.

I'm not here to force anyone to vote exclusively, I'm not like that. But if amongst the Ridley, Snake, & Wolf voting you think someone else deserves a spot more, give Bomberman a chance. Have a swell day guys and have fun voting.

Decided to make this into a thread.

I've actually known about the Fighter Ballot for a good while now alongside with Mewtwo and Lucas's release dates and such. The reason is that Nintendo have a bi-monthly plan at the moment when it comes to Smash DLC and they've had to hire extra staff to work on them asap, which includes me. Information:

>Starting from this month with Mewtwo, every 2 months leading up to the last month in December (and the Fighter Ballot closing in October), there will be a new DLC character, a set of Mii Costumes and a update to the game that shall be released to further support the game.
>The current schedule is as followed
>April: Mewtwo, the Mii pack that includes new costumes based on such series as Mega Man and Zelda and the Update that adds the ability to purchase DLC, a balance patch and the sharing capabilities on the Wii U version
>June: Lucas, a Mii pack that adds costumes based on Sonic, Pokemon and Kid Icarus, a balance patch and a update to the game that includes Tournament Mode.
>August: Wolf, a Mii pack that adds costumes based on Star Fox, Mario and Pac-Man, a balance patch and a update to the game that includes the Miiverse stage.
>October: Pichu, a Mii pack that adds costumes based on Animal Crossing, Metroid and Kirby, a balance patch and a update to the game that includes Online Tourneys.
>December: Roy, a Mii pack that adds costumes based on Fire Emblem, F-Zero and Punch-Out, a balance patch and a update to the game that brings some new content for the Stage Builder.

After that, the company plans on releasing the top 5 characters that are decided by the Fighter Ballot over the course of 2016/2017. So far, I can tell you that the top 5 characters at the moment are King K. Rool, Ray-Man, Shovel Knight, Wonder Red and Daisy. In a days span, we've received more than the month's projected total of requests of 400,000 and have almost doubled that so far. 1/2

Despite the rather shifty crossover track record so far, what Nintendo x third party crossovers would you like to see in the future, and what potential crossovers could be likely now that Nintendo is being a little less controlling over their IPs?

Hello, I am Jeremy Garvey. I am a huge gamer, and Smash Bros is my favorite franchise. My friend works at Nintendo of America, and has told me about some upcoming Smash Bros DLC this year. Wolf will be on the eshop in October. The Inkling from Splatoon will be available, and will be revealed in a special Splatoon Nintendo Direct a week before the game's release. Included in Wave 2 of the Mii Fighter costume DLC will be a Tanuki Suit from the Mario franchise, a Sonic the Hedgehog and Shadow the Hedgehog suit, and a Keatun Mash from the Legend of Zelda franchise. I am very excited about this upcoming dlc, and felt like everyone else should know too :)

Been playing Forza 4 on 360 and loving it. I've also been playing Grid and Grid Motorsport on pc, as well as NFS Hot Pursuit. For really arcade-style kicks I play Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed and Burnout paradise. It's all I've been playing for weeks.

I'm not that good at racing, but when I get better and get a better internet connection and computer I'm going to get Assetto Corsa and iRacing.

>make Sonic's stage in Smash the natural outdoors organic first levels of their games
>put the hard-rocking vocal songs on them

Personally that annoys me. Live and Learn does not fit on Green Hill or Windy Hill. What Sakurai should have done was make two stages for Sonic: Windy Hill, with the instrumental and classic music; and a stage from the Dreamcast/Gamecube/PS3 and Xbox eras for the vocal tracks.

Station Square would have been perfect, especially if Sakurai had used the Generations assets. Fight on the ruined buildings and highways avoiding crumbling debris and the water, and every now and then Perfect Chaos would rise in the background, roar, and attack with his tentacles, spread shot, and mouth laser every now and then. Perfect setting for the hard rock tracks.

I had the same problem with Halberd in Brawl. Checker Knights and the snow music do NOT fit with the battleship Halberd.

What are your wants in Smash 4 still /v/? What about that balance patch, what would you like in it?

General stuff:
>1st jump momentum
>Cancel running by crouching
>Reduce knockback by crouching
>DJC to return. 
Given back to: Ness, Peach, Yoshi, and Mewtwo when he comes out. Given to: Samus, Zelda, Falco, Lucario, G&W, ROB, Rosalina, Palutena, Shulk, Duck Hunt, Mega Man, Pac-Man, and Lucas when he comes out.
>DJC can be not used still and instead just use a rising aerial if you want like in all those brawl hacks.

General characters:
>Characters who aren't Ness (bthrow), Charizard (dthrow, but also fthrow to a point), Bowser (Koopa Claw, but also limited with bthrow), ROB (uthrow), Shulk (dthrow and bthrow in SMASH), Lucario (Force Palm), and Sonic (bthrow) to have their kill throws powered up some.
I'm aware Sonic's bthrow is about as strong as DK's and Tink's, but Sonic's rolling does lower the actual % needed to land this kill move.
Still this makes the kill throws of Mario (bthrow), Dr. Mario (bthrow), Luigi (bthrow), Peach (bthrow), Wario (fthrow), DK (bthrow), Tink (bthrow), Pit (fthrow), Dark Pit (fthrow), Kirby (bthrow), Falco (bthrow), Pac-Man (bthrow) and whoever else (most likely the uthrow/dthrow characters) I forgot a bit better.

>a general buff to any worthless move a character has and so on.
So yeah, buffing stuff like Ness' dtilt, dair, PK Flash, Fire, and so on. But also buffing everyone else.

So a while back a friend of mine said that he never understood why people liked sonic and that sonic games were never good. I decided to take him up on that and it turns out he was right. Not only are sonic games some of the most fundamentally flawed platformers around they're probably the least polished games ever. 

>point of the game is to go fast
>you get punished for going fast
>most of the game plays itself
>gameplay has really terrible and clunky flow to it
>they all control like fucking ass
>shit story in a game where there shouldn't be story at all.
>3d platformers where the character is supposed to be going fast and there's no way to turn it off
>character design has no harmony 
>stages don't make a lick of sense and you just have to accept that shit looks the way it does because fuck you
>nothing is fucking canon and almost everything is mutually exclusive in a series that spans 20 years and has several dozen games

What really gets me is that everyone who says they're a fan constantly shits on all of the 3d games. The games that most of them grew up with and the reason they even like sonic. So I ask again: who the fuck likes sonic and how does it keep selling games?

Double classes all the time - triple classes during party mode
BANNED CLASSES
This is an experiment to see if it improves the game, here are the tiers of banned classes

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

Regular banned
Necromancer - Either path they take is a rape train at endgame, with either skeletons stealing all of your items or diseasoids constantly keeping you dead. Banning this to see how the game is without easy item theft.
Sorcerer - Because of telekenesis, seeing how this game will change without easy theft or item locking (enchanter)

EVENT GUIDE:

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses, and never visit the place again. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick, less fun than other events.

A lot of people want nerfs, but what you might not realize is that if everything is nerfed until everything is balanced, the game will truly become Brawl 2.0.

What Smash 4 REALLY needs is buffs for every character to keep up with the faster paced gameplay of all the top tier characters. It takes a lot more time than nerfing a character, and I know it's most likely not gonna be the case in the next update, but think about it from the perspective of someone familiar with all the Smash games and what makes some of them "better" than others, specifically Melee and 64.

If all characters had reliable follow up options and safe and reliable attacks like Diddy, there wouldn't be the talk of nerfing characters so that your undeveloped main has a chance.

How is a mobile freemium thing the best thing to come out of Sonic in years?

>2D Sidescrolling platforming
>Score based meaning skill is the only thing in your way
>Retains the feeling of speed without actually having to hold a button to achieve it.
>Stamina refills quickly and even refreshes every time you progress to the next rank
>Lots of playable characters without any of them feeling completely wasted so far.
>That music
>No BS targeting to addicts
>Chaos
>Little references to Unleashed, Black Knight, and even the Master Emerald.
>The Easter Event was pretty neat too

This is probably the most consistent fun I've had with a Sonic game ever. Even some of the better Sonic games had moments that were either too frustrating or just plain awful.

Only problem I have with this game is that the roulette costs too much to me (50 red rings) but in app purchases are actually too expensive so much to the point that I have no desire to buy them, which is a good thing.

Can we have a serious thread as to who you really believe will get into the smash bros dlc and why? Not just votes but why they will make it in and who will not. I really think Banjo is going to make it in. Why? Banjo was considered for the original smash bros and melee. Sakurai obviously wants this character and Phil Spencer pretty much offered and before you scream that they have to pay for IPs, think about it. If anything Microsoft should be paying Nintendo to represent their character in smash bros. Smash is a big deal and in the long run, if microsoft takes this chance to make a new banjo game, people will buy it. Does anyone know how megaman and sonic worked out? Sources? Also Banjo has a huge variety of moves and will be a brand new character. Nothing like Duck Hunt, Polls around the internet also conclude that banjo is very popular being within the top 3 and often #1. As much as I would like snake, I dont think he has a chance because of whats going on with konami and if Kojima wanted snake to return, they wouldve discussed this a long time ago. As for K rool, Im sure Nintendo knows hes very much wanted but I feel like sakurai and his team have probably already tried making him a character and maybe it didnt work out. Why would he listen to the most requested people then ignore some? Palutena, Shulk, Ridley, little mac, and villager were all in high demand. Opinions? Characters you think wont make it? Lets be civil guys

Finish line: 1000
Action timer to 15 seconds: Hurry the fuck up and AFKers get no mercy and will be kicked
Double classes all the time - triple classes during party mode
BANNED CLASSES
This is an experiment to see if it improves the game, here are the tiers of banned classes

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

Regular banned
Necromancer - Either path they take is a rape train at endgame, with either skeletons stealing all of your items or diseasoids constantly keeping you dead. Banning this to see how the game is without easy item theft.
Sorcerer - Because of telekenesis, seeing how this game will change without easy theft or item locking (enchanter)

Why 15 second action timer?
So blind is more useful

EVENT GUIDE:

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a multipurpose sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses, and never visit the place again. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick, less fun than other events.

title: The Ding and Scott Game
comment:
A game starring a Wooper and a Togepi from Pokemon, named Ding and Scott, respectively. The game would have several sections, each playing like a different game genre. For instance, the section were you fight the evil armies of General Smashclaw, the Bear General turned evil, the game would essentially be carbon copy of Sonic Boom. Or, the fan favorite bit where you fight "Doran Doran Dorna Dorna Desu", The Desu lord who has been corrupted, it would basically just be that one Shrek fighting game.
Plot
The game is abut the journey of DIng and Scott, two best friends, on their journey to aid the Desus, the great lords of the world of Baeria. The evil Loaf, a yeasty force of great evil, is making a conquest against the world, and the Desus have turned to Ding and Scott for help. The Loaf has employed a dangerous mercenary, with a special toxin that can corrput Bears, the residents of Baeria, and Ding and Scott must stop him before he turns the whole world against the Desus. Furthermore, the Admins, the second highest force of power, only topped by the Desus themselves, have all gone missing! The game details Ding and Scotts adventure to defeat the mercenary and discover what happened to the Admins.
Gameplay
As stated above, the gameplay will be a mix of many other games, drawing most of its inspiration from Pokemon, Shrek SuperSlam, and Formula 1 Racing. The player will be able to switch between Ding and Scott, and each character has his own special abilities. Ding, for instance, has a special water attack he can use to do bonus damage to mudmen, while Scott can headbutt people with his weird egghead. However, both characters share the same core abilities, such as Screeching loudly, throwing knives, and eating rocks. These abilities are all consisten and can be upgraded using "BearPoints," a currency seperate from money that can be attained by finding .txt files of conversations from days past.

For the new smash bros balance patch, what are some things you want to be changed?

I would much rather have them buff the rest of the cast that arent the top tiers but seeing as they would not do that here are the changes I suggest:

Peach: give her fair more power
Dr. mario: buff his upair, give him some combing capabilities 
Zelda: make bdown have killing power, give buffs to her dair and fair
Shiek: more start up time for needles, ending lag on fair
T.link:nerf his dsmash so it can't send opponents so far off stage at low percents
Metaknight: give him some range
Falco: reduce his endlag on all of his aerials
Ness: nerf backair 
Marth: give him more range and increase his strength 
R.o.b: nerf his down b
Rosalina: nerf luma to appear 30 seconds after being k.o. 
Wii fit trainer: increase her range 
Shulk: balance out his arts more [speed should make him fast but weak as hell] 
Villager: nerf his slingshot
Sonic: nerf his homing attack and spin dash so it's more punishable and when he does dair off the cliff he shouldn't be able to recover from that
donkey kong: buff his strength or reduce ending lag on all of his attacks
charizard: reduce ending lag on all attacks
samus: buff something on her, I don't know what
zero suit: more ending lag on stun gun 
diddy: nerf bdown and uair

Just kidding. I bet you thought that this was going to be the same old-
>What went wrong with Sonic? 
>DON'T. CALL. FUCKBUDDIES!
-thread that shows up here every single day.

Nope! Not this time. This time I propose that pic related is what truly went wrong with Sonic. 

Ask an actual Sonic fan what happens in the depicted situation. They'll tell you that the ball will roll down the hill, gaining speed as it descends, depending on the depth of the slope. Upon reaching the bottom, the ball will continue to roll until it encounters a wall, a slope in the opposing direction, or simply slows down due to friction. 

Ask a Sonic Team developer the same question. They'll tell you that the ball will not move at all! The ball will stick firmly to the slope, regardless of steepness, unless there exists 15, or so conveyor belts to help the ball along. Upon reaching the bottom of the slope, the ball will stop. Just stop. That's what physics are, right?

It's not the green eyes, it's not the blue arms, it's not the voice actors, it's not the story, it's not his friends, it's not the DeviantART OC fan base. 
It's the fact that no Sonic game since the Advance series has given any notice to the very REASON that Sonic the Hedgehog is a fucking hedgehog. Because rolling physics is what made Sonic Sonic.

Indeed, I am suggesting that Sanicball is a more pure and authentic Sonic experience than Sonic Lost World.

title: Is Nickelodeon the Sega of Cartoons?
comment:
Whenever I think of Nickelodeon's animation catalogue, I can't help but feel similarities to Sega. Think about it, they were both known for quirky, experimental titles. They both had a catchy jingle (SEEEGGAAAAAA!! and Ni-Ni-Nick-Nick Ni-Nick-Nick-Nick Nick-el-o-deon!). They both marketed themselves as cooler and more cutting edge than the alternatives. and several of their products are similar in one way or another.
 
SpongeBob = Sonic - Long running pop-culture icons
Rugrats = Alex Kidd - Former mascot retired
Avatar = Skies of Arcadia - Vibrant and epic RPG-esque adventure
My Life as a Teenage Robot = Space Channel 5 - Cute girl kicking alien ass (Plus, Jenny has a very similar design to Ulala)
Hey Arnold! = Jet Set Radio - Urban setting and Jazz/funk based soundtrack
El Tigre = Samba De Amigo - Mexican setting and style
 
As for other kids networks. I always saw 90s/early 2000s Cartoon Network as very similar to Nintendo in a lot of ways. They didn't care too much about demographics so much as they did about showcasing their respective mediums. Plus, they were both a bit heavy on censorship. And Disney Channel believe it or not, was similar to the PlayStation IMO. A semi-upstart product hoping to court a slighty older audience, in DC's case, it was the 9-14 year old "Tween" market. Nowadays, Modern Nickelodeon is like Microsoft, a company who cares nothing for their target audience, nor the medium they're known for, and will hype up whatever mediocre crap that makes them the most money, rather than quality content.

So i rented Sonic Boom, and yes /v/ was right, the game is a steaming pile of shit. But i have to ask why? Why does Sega create such shitty Sonic games? Mario doesn't get constantly shat on by Nintendo. So why does Sega treat Sonic like crap.

All i ever wanted with a Sonic game was to go fast and have fun, like i did when Sonic was 2D. Will there ever be a truly good Sonic game ever again?

This disasterpalooza is loved by Gen Z kids born in 1995-1999 like you, who think that Sonic should be edgy and like a kewl dark badass edgy ninjutsu teleport-behind-you anime.

You still claim to be a "le 90s kid" despite not remembering the 90s, not knowing who Stick Stickly is, not knowing what Clarissa Explains It All Is, not knowing what Pete and Pete is, never touching an SNES, and loving shittastic shows like spongebob, Code lyoko, camp lazlo, squirrel boy, gym Partner, Kids next Door, kappa mikey, hannah montana, Jimmy Neutron, iCarly, Drake & Josh, Naked Brothers band, avatar, and that fucking Ned show.

>tfw we'll never get a video game or game series that is a massive crossover between companies with an actual story

Nintendo and Sega couldn't figure out how to make a platformer that would work for both Sonic and Mario, so we got Olympics. Every other crossover is a fighting game, racing game, or a strategy game. Is it because it's that difficult making a story that can encompass all the materials in the crossover, or are companies just so lazy they don't want to try?

Shit, I'd personally finance a game that was like Archie's upcoming Worlds Unite crossover. Sega and Capcon franchises all coming together into one orgasmic showdown, heroes teaming up against a Legion of Doom, choosing which protagonist to go through the stages fighting minions and bosses from all the franchises.

Fuck yeah.

So, with the announcement of Project X Zone 2, it got me wondering if we'll ever see the first game in the series released in the US- the first being Namco X Capcom (despite Sega being a part of it). Why don't they just port it to the 3DS as Project X Zone 0?

Also, Project X Zone thread.

Who do you want to see in this third installment? I'm hoping we get Sonic, Mega Man, and Pac-Man this time around. We had Klonoa in the first one, but he was absent in the second. Pac-Man and Klonoa would be cool. I'd also love to see Mega Man interact with X and Zero.

You're offered unlimited resources to make the TRUE and HONEST Sonichu game, with the promise that if it succeeds, the entire vidya industry will be reborn; Sonichu will bring forth a new golden era of gaming. 

Do you use the old Sonic formal of "FAST", or do you make it a Pokemon game, catching a team of Sonichus to do battle with Slaweel, Count Graduon, PVCCitizens, and 4 Cent Garbage?

comment:
Playing through sonic 1, 2 and 3 on the Sega megadrive several times and sonic cd on an emulator one time i hereby solemnly crwn the best 2D Sonic game:

Sonic 3 and Knuckles wins by far cause it has it all done right:
-level (art) design
-sound design, also music
-minor and major bosses
-badass final boss
-those transitions between the levels
-partially different paths and levels etc. when playing as knuckles
-dem powerups
althought it yould have been a bit more challenging i find Sonic 3 (and knuckles) to be the perfect Sonic game

Sonic CD took a step back, only thing to praise here is the dark boss music. The final Boss was so pathetic that i just couldnt believe the game was over afterwards.

What are your thoughts?

The whole Map/Inventory thing is really just a pain in the ass and a total waste for me. If I want to look at one of those things I probably want to bring up a menu and actually LOOK at it. Playing Shantae and sort of clusterfucking my item pool sucked ass.

My favorite instances so far have been own-screen co-op like Hyrule Warriors and Sonic Racing Transformed. Definitely played a lot with other guys because of that.

There is literally no reason why Master Chief shouldnt be in the new Smash

> intereting moveset potential. 
The variety of short range to long range weapons gives us a variety of potential movesets and alternate moves.

> video game icon
The Chief is undoubtedly one of the biggest icons in video game history. His series is the Mario to Microsoft's Nintendo. Lets be honest, Chief is way more iconic then fucking Marth or any of the other weeb characters.

> alternates potential
Lots of different armors means more cool alternates possible. ODST, Mark V, etc.

> kids love him
Chief getting in would be huge, probably bigger then Snake or Sonic getting in. MC can bring the WiiU and smash some much needed sales boost

title: A new kind of Sm4sh DLC
comment:
What would you think of alternate skins and alts for Smash 4 DLC? Personally, I think it just makes sense.

Ever since Smash 64 there have been color palettes that allowed players to at least pretend that they were playing as someone else. With Smash 4 having Alph, Male Wii Fit, Female Robin, Wireframe Little Mac and the Koopalings, it wouldn't be unreasonable to see similar alternate skins, or colors for other characters. 
Let's not forget that Lucina, The Doc and Dark Pit were originally intended to be alts as well.

The two types of alts could be divided into 2 tiers: full-on character swaps a-la Olimar/Alph and the Koopalings, complete with new voices and announcer. The other could be simply new character colors like Fierce Deity/Dark Link and Waluigi Mario/Luigi. These would be less expensive than the character swaps, naturally. 

Character alts I'd like to see:
>Metal Sonic
>A proper Daisy
>Roy over Marth
>Mr L.
>Princess Hilda
>Dry Bowser
>Brittany and Charlie to accompany Alph
>James McCloud

New color palettes:
>Viridi colors for Palutena
>Green hair Zero Suit Samus
>Tails, Knuckles, Shadow and Silver colors for Sonic
>More Mega Man power colors
>More Kirby colors
>Corrupted Zelda
>Famicom R.O.B

What others would you like to see?

Also, on another popular detail, if y'all want to vote for Sonichu to be a DLC character in Super Smash Bros., for future possibilities of More Sonichu and Rosechu Stories directly from me, in addition to potential comic pages, I would appreciate that.

Finish line: 1000
Action timer to 20 seconds: Hurry the fuck up and AFKers get no mercy and will be kicked
Double classes all the time - triple classes during party mode
BANNED CLASSES
This is an experiment to see if it improves the game, here are the tiers of banned classes

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

SPECIAL HOST EVENT!
TRIPLE DREAM TEAM
THREE CLASSES, YOU GET TO CHOOSE FROM ALL! MAKE YOUR DREAM CLASS COMBO TODAY

Necromancer and sorcerer are banned from the dream team however, as the item theft would go into overhaul with these being able to be picked by everybody


EVENT GUIDE:

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a multipurpose sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick, less fun than other events.

GoT event is FINALLY BUFFED. We get a coin every 10 turns that let's you revisit it. It's still the shittiest, but at least a viable pick now.

So, if Marina was in Smash, which she probably never ever will be, what would her moveset be?

I was thinking her Specials would be:
Up B - Springball (springs upward. .Works similarly to Sonic's Spring)
Down B - Clanpot (captures or releases projectile. Works similarly to Villager's Pocket)
Forward B - Spikeball (Releases Spikeball from Clanpot. Acts similarly to Dedede's Gordo)

I was also thinking she would have grab move similarly to Lucario's Force Palm, but I'm not sure what it would do when not grabbing, as Lucario's attack shoots aura forward.

How would you make a good sonic game that sticks to the essence of what sonic is. i.e the fastest thing alive.

The issue with pretty much 'any' sonic game is the fact that the enemies make you slow down or stop to kill them and then you can continue which just turns it into any other platform game.

A good Sonic game would actually let you run fast without the need to stop, there could be enemies but they would have to be incorporated into the game to allow them to add challenge. Not as much attacking sonic directly but trying to interfere with sonic path to slow him down.

Bosses could be large enough to allow you to get a good speed up, but also lets you strategically defeat them.

Trackmania would be a very good comparison to a game like this, as those stages break all physics but you need to be fast enough to actually complete the levels.

That they can instantly teleport 3 cars and a helicopter to you location, I can handle.

That they have ESP and supersonic hearing, I can handle.

That they have secret nitrous injectors in their cars, I can handle

That all cars have a switch on the back bumper, only accessible to cops, which cause your front wheels to instantly turn 45 degrees left, without even going through the intervening space, I cannot handle. This is crossing the fucking line.

When a game looks as gorgeous and hyper-realistic as GTA V, we expect the game mechanics to be as advanced and not rely on the kind of cheap-ass shitty trick which programmers had to do 13 years ago when processors were shitty.

Why the fuck is this game regarded so much as the best Sonic game by almost every Sonictard? It has pretty much has all the elements of a terrible Sonic Game (With a few worthwhile stuff, no denying that) heck I won't be surprised if this is what caused the uprise in the lack of quality in Sonic Games.
Here is as far as I can imagine on what happened during development.
>Be Sonic Team Leader
>Creating Sonic Adventure 2
>Made some kickass fastpaced levels for Sonic (And a dumb one that has you carrying stuff and placing them into specific places)
>Have some dank music playing all over the levels
>Realize this is not enough to be a full game
>Fill it with terrible levels for Sonic's friends
>Realize this is still not enough for a full game
>Use pre-existing models of earlier bossfights and slap Sonic and Co's playstyle on them. >Name it as "Dark Mode"
>Realize what you've created is starting to look like a piece of shit.
>Try to salvage it by adding another mode.... "????" Mode.
>Nope, still a piece of shit.
>Add another mode
>Chao Garden.
>Ship the game despite all the telltale signs of a shitty game plastered on it.

To All Crash Fans

In 18 months, Crash Bandicoot will be celebrating his 20th birthday.

Crash isn't in a good state at the moment, he has been featured in countless mediocre games, He was taken away from his loving parents (Naughty Dog) and forced to do the bidding of universal, his legal rights have been an absolute mess with Sony and Activision greedily fighting over his franchise and he has not appeared in a significant game in nearly a decade.

For many people like myself, Crash was huge part of their childhood; he introduced us to video games and provided us with many hours of entertainment. While sometimes dismissed as a sonic clone, nothing could be further from the truth, Crash was a unique personality in video games who was unafraid to make a fool of himself and just take the piss being a moron. This is in stark contrast to Mario’s perfect and flawless demeanor or Sonic’s constant effort to try and be hip, edgy and respected. To summarize, neither he, nor his games took themselves seriously at all. 

I think he deserves better, we should petition together to give crash the game he deserves.
We could contact all of the old creators and developers, Jason Rubin, Charles Zimbillas and Bob Rafei. If we can’t get the rights off Activision, we could pull a Keiji Inafune and make a crash mighty no 9.

The industry is in dire need of a game that doesn’t give a shit, especially in this day and age of gritty shooters, DLC, Controversies and bad journalism, there is plenty of material to parody and make fun of. We could even make it M/18s like conker’s bad fur day because most of his original fans are over 16 now and still hold him in high regard. As long as the good level design and solid gameplay remains, all will be good.

What do you think?
… and if this all works out well, we’ll do the same for spyro

SA1 is a rough game but you can have fun playing with Sonic, Tails, Amy and, hell even Gamma. Knuckles was boring but it was much easier and not so tedious as SA2 and Big is Big.

Even looking to the bad stuff, when you play the story mode you don't need to keep switching gameplay mechanics so it flows much better (or worse if it's Big than SA2. Good luck trying to enjoy that game when playing anything that's not Sonic or Shadow (and Shadow has, what, 3~4 levels?)

They nailed the characters, general concept, environments, atmosphere and made a top-tier sound track. Playing it made me realise alot of passion went into this game.

Yet it's a clunky and glitchy cesspool of bubbling shit with 4 hour load times, all because they promised so much and gave themselves so little time to do it.

Yes, yes, I know all of his robots and ships were called Egg x like the Death Egg and shit, but he was always Dr. Robotnik for me growing up. Him abounding his real name to adopt Eggman as his de facto name was never explained in the games. Why? This is a big thing to miss for his character.

Anyway, I'm just wondering, are there any good sonic romhacks? Preferably genesis games. Also, how hard would it be to make your own romhack? I'm sure the tools are a lot better than they were back in the day and even then I remember them being somewhat user friendly.

Now that the dust has settled can we look at this for what it really is? A nostalgia cashgrab that was a huge downgrade from Colors.

Pros:
>Amazing Soundtrack
>First 3 boss fights pretty awesome
>Shadow race actually made for an amazing and fun race game. 20 times better than the adventure boss.
>The store's extras were pretty fun to play with for variety. 

Cons
>Only 9 actual levels with 2 acts split between the sonics down from 7 actual levels with 6 acts to them.
>half the stages are complete ass. Most the them you can just cheese with boost and spindash without any skill over most obstacles.
>The fact you HAVE to play a minimum of 9 "challenge" acts that are just replaying those same 9 levels with slight gimmicks or with annoying "friends" you have to play with. 
>Utter lack of content in 3D sections. Unlike Colors and Day stages in Unleash, 3D sections are completely just Boost to win without any challenge even the final stage. Only variation of this is Sky sanctuary zone, but here you realize that trying to do full "Adventure" like gaming and platforming with Unleashed speed and nerfed homing attack makes for a bad time. 
>Final boss was the most boring and visually confusing shit.
>Classic Sonic stages levels and layouts being rather simplistic even in the later eras and no shields or any features from later 2D sonics to build on. Its basically just playing Sonic 2 with an OP spindash.
>Metal Sonic Race Casual mode
>How super sonic has no animations and doesn't really affect gameplay in modern stages other than maybe stepping on spikes.
>Fucking shit DLC when they could have easily ported levels from last 2 games or done more than just a shitty pinball game.

All and all I can't see why people praise the game. Classic Sonic handles poorly compared to Genesis or even GBA standards of 2D Sonic and the game really didn't add anything for 3D than a fuckton of nostalgia.

Smilebit is stuck making shit like "Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games".

Hideki Naganuma signed and promoted the petition for a third Jet Set Radio game himself and yet Sega continues to fail and fail even harder.

I guess it's true. Even when you're past the point of being able to express something good and you just want to aim low and take in as much as you possibly can financially, even when you're still failing, you'd rather not go out without a bang. You'd rather just look stupid. And it's happening with Nintendo too, the same company that had their fair share of redefining video games in a great number of ways over the years, is continuously plummeting into a portable-only market, that will collapse when viable controls supersedes control emulation on mobile devices.

And then you just have a console marketplace of Microsoft and Sony, which really is kind of the perfect metaphor. Two huge companies who make video games and video game consoles only as one of their many consumer markets. Those developers games-specific disappear from the modern market, similar to all the Grado or Audiotechnica headphones in the world being replaced by cheap Sony headphones. Similar to hand-made sculptures being replaced by plastic casts.

Then I'm left with my PC, independent developers with good intent but bad execution, and a library of old games I loved years ago, except they will never be ported. My dusty GPUs go unused these days.

Fuck.

How to fix Mario and Sonic games, the thread:

OPEN WORLD GAMES.

Sonic:
>Cohesive world like the comics
>Side characters can help take on areas with you if you do sidequests for them
>7 "zones" that you have to travel to, and take down Eggman bases
>After beating the 7th zone, the final level becomes available
>Hopefully not like that one shitty game with Green Hill Paradise, but has a decent control scheme and controls nonetheless
Plus
>Have games for sidecharacters, or have adventure-style gameplay for them in a given game
>Chaotix get detective work in a fashion similar to Heroes gameplay but with Adventure emerald tracking
>Rouge gets stealth
>Tails can use plane or something
>Sonic goes fast (not necessarily with boost)


Mario:
>Games like 64 and Sunshine, where there's a given environment, and the player focuses on certain tasks to get stars or something
>Don't focus too much on the actual linear platforming levels, but throw them in here and there

Both:
>Add fun, recurring mechanics
>Feature some kind of "upgrades" in the game to give the player a sense of personal progress
>Mix up the enviroments. Don't do what Mario games have been doing lately, where all the enviroments are the same. For Mario, take cues from some of the courses in MK8. Sonic can take cues from the comics.

Most people on here knew about Sonic with the Adventure or Post-Adventure games.

Why is that?
Why did you guys took so long to be born?

Is there a character who could defeat Maxwell?

And I'm not talking about Scribblenauts Classic Maxwell. Hell, I'm not even talking about Super Scribblenauts Maxwell. I'm talking about Scribblenauts Unlimited Maxwell with the Invincible and Strong adjectives applied to himself, wearing a Supersonic Jetpack and an Invisible Invisibility Cloak, equipped with a Deadly Minigun, with an unlimited budget meter so he can spawn any amount of objects at will and flanked by a bodyguard unit of Deaths which each have the Loyal, Invincible, Flying, and Supersonic adjectives.

PARTY TIME!

Finish line: 1000
Action timer to 20 seconds: Hurry the fuck up and AFKers get no mercy and will be kicked
Double classes all the time - triple classes during party mode
BANNED CLASSES
This is an experiment to see if it improves the game, here are the tiers of banned classes

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

Necromancer and sorcerer are also banned just because fuck you.

EVENT GUIDE:

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a multipurpose sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick, less fun than other events.

GoT event is FINALLY BUFFED. We get a coin every 10 turns that let's you revisit it. It's still the shittiest, but at least a viable pick now.

A weeaboo virgin autist neckbeard underage reseller Nintendrone professor and pedophile was teaching a class on the 16 Bit console war,

"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship the Super NES and accept that it was the most highly-advanced 2D console the world has ever known, even greater than the Neo Geo AES and Sega Saturn!"

At this moment, a handsome, well-hung, well-adjusted Thunder Force IV and M.U.S.H.A. world champion who had clocked 1500 hours of sex and understood how to control the barrel in Sonic 3 and fully supported all corporate decisions made by Tom Kalinske stood up and held up a Sega Genesis.

"How powerful is this console?"

The arrogant professor smirked quite Busbyishly and smugly replied "No Mode 7 and the music sounds like robot farts. Totally worthless you stupid Segafag!"

"Wrong. Sega Genesis has blast processing. If SNES was, as you say, the most advanced 2D console… then Nintendo should have made a Sega CD by now."

The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and preserved VGA100+ Gem Mint copy of Earthbound. He stormed out of the room crying those weeaboo crocodile tears.

The students applauded and all bought a Sega Genesis that day and accepted Kalinske as their lord and savior. An eagle named "F-14 Tomcat" flew into the room and perched atop a Power Base Converter and shed a tear on the chalk. Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was watched several times, and Segata Sanshiro himself showed up and enacted a law mandating the playing of Sega Saturn across the country.

The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of an over fast heart rate after playing a non-turn based RPG for the first time in his life and was buried in an oversized coffin the following day.

Sega does what Nintendon't.

DEFINITELY BANNUD
Enchanter - Because it can item lock and fireproof all their items with little to no effort, can also turn any item into a crystal which is a better version of what alchemist can do.

Necromancer and sorcerer are banned during triple class mode, where you get 3 classes in 20 turns because in a combo with other classes, they are too powerful of a presence, with necromancer being general hell, and with triple classes this means more than likely, 50% of the players will be necro. For sorcerer they have a strong 'fuck you' presence where they can just fuck 1 person over really hard just by waiting some turns and doing nothing.

Okay /v/, what *should* Sonic be? What would actually make a *good* Sonic game nowadays?

If it were up to me, I'd format it more like how the Mario series went. Very little story, clearly knows it's a cartoon video game, no cringy attempts at characterization.

Don't for a moment acknowledge any of the canon from other Sonic games.

It'd have Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and maybe Amy as playable characters. No other characters except for in-game enemies/helpers. There's way too many characters in the Sonic universe and most of them are terrible. 

Shadow or Metal Sonic could maybe be in as a recurring boss, but never make them him a "good guy" because that's just redundant and lame. Nobody needs another Sonic whose only distinction is that he's not having a good time.

Robotnik as his usual over-the-top self. No other big baddy, no giant evil monster or demon hedgehog bullshit, just Robotnik being a prick.

Make it bright and colorful, somewhat surreal. Early Sonic was practically psychedelic.

No hub world, each level just connects to the next (but allow for branching paths to secret levels). Any story is just a brief scene between two levels. Shouldn't interrupt the pace.

As for 2D vs 3D, I don't even know. But there's a lot that can go wrong with 3D, and 3D Sonic games have a history of just being wonky. They'd really have to nail the controls and physics to have anything that feels good. Something in 2.5D might be good. I know they tried that with Sonic the Hedgehog 4, but they messed up the physics and made it episodic for no good reason.

Also the game shouldn't literally play itself. Sonic games have a lot of segments that are just bouncing from spring to another or doing a series of crazy boosts which the player really has no control over. That looks cool and all but Sonic should play well because of how the player did. If the player really knows what they're doing, gameplay should be fast and smooth, but not automated.

high tier:

>TBSRPG
>RTSRPG
> action platformers ( megaman, contra, castlevania, ninja gaiden)
> 2D fighting games
> traditional FPS
> Action/adventure RPGs ( souls, witcher, zelda)

Mid Tier:

classic arcade games ( pac man, space invaders etc)
Bullet hell shooters 
hack and slash ( not diablo trash)
Arena FPS
Stealth ( almost always third person)
Survival horror 
pure puzzle games ( spacechem, tetris)
arcade style racing games ( burnout, F-zero)
traditional platformers ( mario, donkey kong, sonic)
3D platformers 

low tier: aka almost nothing worth playing

traditional RPGs
simulation games ( all types, from grand turismo to the sims to forklift simulator)
MMOs
MOBAs
3D fighting games
visual novels
dungeon crawlers
text adventures
sandbox games
modern AAA clusterfucks ( mix of third person shooter, and stealth usually)
sports games
rythem games
mini-game collections
"Art" games ( usually indie shit)
trivia/educational games
shoot em ups 
mascot fighting games
everything not mentioned ( usually some crappy PC RPG hybrid or sub-genre) 


this isn't up for debate just a PSA for when something interests you. most games are shit and not worth playing, chances are if they aren't in a good genre, they definitely aren't worth your time.

Can someone explain to me the correlation between autism and Sonic fandom? I was thinking back to my college days (20-some years ago) and there was this one guy in my dorm who was antisocial and weird as fuck, and he would sit in his single all day, playing JRPGs. One day, he was plotzing over some new game called Sonic the Hedgehog. He wouldn't stop going on about it, as if it spoke to his very soul.
In recent years, every time I read the name Sonic, the word "autism" is never far behind.

The two things I've found to work so far is:
>Castle Crashers, one lvl20 player, one lvl1 player. 
>Mario Party (emulated) with skill based minigames disabled
>Sonic II (but it's a very one-sided experience)

Things that just don't work at all are Mario Kart and Binding of Isaac, because they're far too skill based.

Tikal (ティカル Tikaru?) is a fictional character from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She is a 4,000 year old anthropomorphic echidna spirit and was once a member of the Knuckles Clan who resided in the Mystic Ruins. She is the daughter of Chief Pachacamac.

In her youth, Tikal lived in a period of war where she opposed her father's warmongering ways. During this time, she befriended the local Chao and their guardian Chaos. When Chaos went on a destructive rampage after her father attempted to steal the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald, Tikal stopped Chaos by sealing it inside the Master Emerald with her own spirit. 4,000 years later, Tikal was released from the Master Emerald when Dr. Eggman planned to use Chaos to take over the world, where she aided Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies. After Chaos was calmed, Tikal left with it to live in peace.

All sonic needs is a mix between SA2B and the chao garden and something more along the lines of Generations. Platforming should not be

Alright /v/ it's time for an actual thread about games. 

I just downloaded a Dreamcast emulator and I need to know the must haves. Don't worry about my taste, I just wanna see yours and what gems that exist that I need to play, I'll decide what's worthy and what's not by my own standards later, i'm more or less looking for names. 

My dreamcast back in the day broke (the fucking disk reader broke) before I ever had a chance to even get anything for it that wasn't Sonic Adventures. Fucking captcha, stop making me want those delicious pizzas already.

Alright /v/, I've heard people say that a 6/10 game is pretty good, and others say a 6/10 is garbage. Can we all agree that the accepted standard for rating a game from 1-10 should look something like this?:

10 - As close to flawless as a game can get
9 - Fantastic
8 - Great
7 - Good
6 - Okay
5 - Mediocre
4 - Flawed
3 - Bad
2 - Garbage
1 - Unplayable, broken

Personally, I've never played anything lower than maybe a 3 or 4. The worst games that I've played that come to mind are probably Raze's Hell and Sonic 06. I wouldn't put either of those below a 3. Even Sneak King is probably a 3 in my book. Does the scale even need to go lower than 3? Have you ever played a 1 or 2? (Regardless of biased "hurr durr Bioshock Infinite, Fable 3 and RE5 are 1/10 because worst games in the series". You and I both know that Bioshock Infinite, while not a "good" game, is better than Naughty Bear, Sonic 06, and Drake of the 99 Dragons.) So what's your personal rating system?

So I've started playing a bunch of classic SEGA games for the genesis for the first time.

Is there a reason so many of them feel the same way movement-wise?

Ecco the Dolphin, Vectorman and Sonic; all different game types, but they all feel like they move in the same obnoxiously fast way.

Was this a result of the hardware, or were the game designers all told that they had to make the characters move disorientatingly fast because of marketing? (Blast Processing!!!)

The question should be, why would you want to choose PC over consoles when consoles already have everything I need?

I like consoles more because they are already set up for you,and they have their own style of GUIs set up for my game collection. 

Also exclusives are important. There has been no release of any of the Kingdom Hearts games officially on PC, has there? Anything released on PC is unheard of and won't interest me. 

30fps doesn't bother me. I've had Sonic Generations on PS3 and got it for PC and noticed a huge difference with 60fps because you're going so fast. It's a perfect game for modding too, so it's perfect for PC. I know some people who will just play Space Engineers or some other shit on their PC, but the consoles are where it's mainly at. I can pay for my games, and I'd rather have an official product than a pirated one. I can study the game beforehand like a project instead of pirating it to play it. I pirate shows and music though, games are my hobby so I like to have the real goodies.

There is nothing I want more from my PC than to browse the internet, play music, and play and/or emulate a game here and there. MY consoles have everything I need, and I'm not going to throw away my entire collection of Vita, 3DS, Wii/U, PS3, and PS4, fuck out of here. 

I can go on.

Former SEGA of America employee here.

SEGA is announcing Sonic Rush 3 later this year, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the original Rush.

Much like Rush Adventure, you will be able to choose between Sonic or Blaze before each level.

Unlike the previous two games, the cutscenes are fully-voiced. Laura Bailey reprises her role as Blaze, giving Blaze her first fully-voiced major role in a game.

The level aesthetic is more like the first game's, but the level design is more like Rush Adventure's. The sailing sections from Rush Adventure have been removed in favor of level-to-level progression like Rush.

Sonic Rush is fun, despite physics changes. The only real problem is the part where you land and it gives you a small boost forward, while great for speedrunning isn't great for precision jumping or landing on loops upside down.

Sonic Rush Adventure was neither overall better or worse than Sonic Rush, and more qualifies as a sidegrade.

Correct?

When is this series going to stop pandering to nostalgiafags?

Sonic's friends have been absent from the games since 2008, and all of the people who hated them have left the fanbase now anyway. 

The only ones left are the ones who understand that the problem was them having awful gameplay styles, not them existing, and they're tired of being forced to play as only Sonic.

Why isn't this game as remembered as the first one?

Aside from the soundtrack, story (which no one cares about in a Sonic game), and sailing, this game is superior to the original in every way. 

The level design is superior (less bottomless pits, and none of those enemy rooms), and the boss fights are superior as well (no waiting around for their attack animation to end or waiting for them to expose their weak point).

For you chumps who don't know about the hype that is Generations modding, here's the lowdown:

>Sonic 2006 Project underway, attempting to port the original levels to the superior Generations engine. Most recent demo contains first 6 levels plus 3 hub worlds. Not perfect, but still a massive improvement over the original and a good time overall. 

>Ports of a few Colors stages like Tropical Resort, Asteroid Coaster and Sweet Mountain.

>Fan-made stages that are okay for a few plays, but are quite a bit rougher than the ported stages.

>Character model swaps let you play as whomever the fuck you want. Shadow, Tails, Knuckles, Silver, Rouge, Blaze, Metal Sonic, Mario, Luigi, Miku, A rock-hard cock, Sonic Boom Sonic, Coldsteel, Sonichu, you name it.

>Graphics mods to re-enable shaders and lighting effects that were disabled by the creators.

>Music mods to replace any stage music with whatever the fuck you want

>Physics mods to increase Modern Sonic's speed so that, to scale, he is actually moving at the speed of sound. Shit's crazy.

>Classic Sonic is playable in 3D. Just don't try to spindash, or the game shits itself!

>Time hacks that let you slow down, or speed up time so you can play in slow-mo and take kickass pictures like pic related.

What are some games that utilize super speed well? Early Sonic games would be alright, but you can't really go fast unless you've mastered the levels because the resolution is too low.

Considering the mediocrity of Lost World and the absolute turd that Sonic Boom was, do you think theres a possibility that Sonic could go back to the boost formula? I personally think this would be the best course for the franchise at this point.

What direction do you want the franchise to go?

>Classic 
Just go back to Classic 2D style games. (Not the boiling diarrhea that is the Sonic 4 formula, but the old games.)

>Adventure
Go back to the adventure style even though literally none of the Adventure style games are good. 

>Heroes
[spoiler]kek[/spoiler]

>Boost
Unleashed story, generations gameplay, colors tier music, and you got a solid 10/10 right there. 

>Parkour 
Try the Lost World formula again, but polish the things that they got wrong. (Bad level design, shit wisp integration, forced gamepad gameplay, etc)

>Die
Let the franchise die


I think having one branch making classic style games and another making the boost games would be the optimal choice. 

What do you think?

>Maybe make the good paths the most difficult and the evil paths the easiest just to go with an actual morality system, but have the "Chaos control" warp thing take you along the hero path so that the game isn't too unbalanced.
>If the idea behind guns and vehicles is to make this a "Shadow" game instead of a Sonic game then fine, but don't change the entire formula just to awkwardly shoehorn in uses for guns and vehicles.
>Reduce the number of "Stop and shoot" segments, nobody plays a sonic game so they can stand still and mash B, if you must, put in a few more grinding segments if you want to have a use for Shadow's guns while still keeping to the Sonic "Gotta go fast" gameplay.
>Instead of having vehicles be vastly slower than running speed and delicate as fuck, make them function the same way powerups do; movement speed is the same as running speed and Shadow can now be hit 3 times before the vehicle breaks and he loses rings, jumping makes you leave the vehicle so you can't stay in it the entire level. 
>Have one or two segments where Shadow uses some kind of big fuck off artillery weapon or vehicle and have it be ridiculously powerful, but use this very sparingly so it feels special and not like "gee shooting down battleships sure is a chore"; maybe make some of these weapons unlockable after beating the game, therefore giving the game some decent replay value, instead of the "heal gun" bullshit they went with.
>Remove the needless edgy dialogue (Although "This is like taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me" is one of my favourite lines in a video game, its for all the wrong reasons).

Fucking why
So much potential
Though I understand Nintendo's trepidation in going towards anything SEGA does with Sonic recently.
Goddamn
I wanna see Sonic rescue Peach and Mario rescue... Tails, or some shit
You didn't even get to see Sonic and Mario interact in Brawl because Sonic wasn't introduced until the last cutscene
IT DOESNT EVEN HAVE TO BE EDGY IT COULD JUST BE A FUN, COLORFUL ADVENTURE WITH A BOSS AT THE END LIKE SONIC GENERATIONS AND 3D WORLD

How did this game ever get away with an E rating, yet Lost World had to be given an E10+ rating? (And no, I don't believe the "aggressive language" is a valid enough reason)

Why do people hate this game so much? The Daytime stages were tons of fun, and also a prelude to the fantastic modern stages of Sonic Generations. Meanwhile, the Nighttime stages weren't that bad. The combat isn't anything special, but it isn't awful by any means. I feel like everyone who disliked this game for the Werehog missions forgot that the Sonic Adventure games also had missions where the gameplay has nothing to do with going fast.

It wasn't a perfect game by any means, but I had a lot of fun with it, and feel like it stands on it's own merits. Anybody else feel the same way?

I watched them for the first time this morning and still am, and this series is a shining example as to why Let's Plays are inherently shit. 

First, JonTron's chemistry with Arin is terrible. I can't imagine how fanboy's of this series didn't see the split coming. I watched from episode 1 and they clearly have some sort of issue with each other. I assume it's jealousy by way of Arin but who gives a shit. Second, LPers constantly run out of shit to say about a game. Sonic has 100 episodes or something ridiculous like that and they're just racking up views on where they're noticeably tired of thinking about funny shit to say. By the time I reached the guy who eventually replaced Jon I noticed he was also much better with Arin. He's a sidekick who has less to say, but what he says is more interesting. JonTron was the complete opposite.

Once per game we get to pick what we want the game to be about, Adventure Time, Doctor Who, or Game of Thrones. All of these shows suck, I don't care which you pick, but GoT is the worst event byfar.

AT - Gives you a crystal every 4 turns to go to an event, lets you dungeon crawl and interact with many NPCs for good items. Pick this if you want items and a fairly common event. Gives unique items.
DW - Gives you a multipurpose sonic screwdriver tool that works every 9 turns to travel back or forth in time, also solve a puzzle with the doctor. Good for going to unique places. Gives unique items.
GoT - Pick 1 of 4 houses. Does not include dungeons or unique items of any kind. Gives very minor buffs depending on which house you pick and a coin that lets you return once every 10 turns, less fun than other events.

How does anyone think ZSS is a balanced or fair character?

>dthrow uair either combos you to 100% since you can't do anything but take it once it connects or they'll chain to upb and kill you

>literal free hits attack that denies any approach attempt

>no endlag do they can deny air approach then set up for more literal free hits

How is that supposed to be fun? If you opponent is a heavy they literally can't win.

And on that note, how does Lucina, Mario, Luigi, Wario, Villager, Lucario, Link, T. Link, Jigglypuff, Diddy, Fox, Sonic, or Rosalina even get to condiered fair?

In the end, it's a good thing that this game was crap.

If it was good, it would have gotten fans, creating another yet sub-section of the Sonic fanbase, further dividing a fanbase that's already notorious for being divided, and making an already bad fanabse even worse.

What do you think of games with sections that have mechanics different from the main gameplay?

I subscribe to the ABDN credo that the very best games are ones which have a minor subsystem the player is occasionally acquainted with throughout the game and then, at a climactic moment, the game demands the player to be an expert at it instead of the main mechanic he has spent the game learning.

For example, in Halo 3, when the game suddenly transforms from an FPS to an ATV-racing game at the very end. Or how Bayonetta 2's bosses frequently take place flying, which uses different combat mechanics from standard grounded gameplay that never appears anywhere BUT boss fights.

Or how the Sonic games seemingly all end in a completely unrelated Super-Sonic segment.

Or how Banjo Tooie's final boss fight suddenly becomes an FPS halfway through.

Or how Mario 3D World's final boss fight is all cat climbing.

Etc. Good games do this because by the end, the player is a master of the main mechanics, and the best way to create tension without being blatantly unfair is to suddenly inflate the sub-mechanics. Point being, I add 2D for the same reason Halo 3 had vehicles; because it breaks up the pace of the main gameplay just enough to keep things interesting, and I can create memorable and challenging moments by putting the player through it at perfect times.

Do any WiiU games have tie in functionality with the 3DS? The only game that I can think of is Smash and it's kind of limited.

I miss how well the Gamecube worked with the GBA. You had bonus content coming from Phantasy Star Online, you had Pokemon interconnectivity, you could do Chao Garden on the Sonic Advance games and Sonic Adventure 2. Not to mention 4 Sword adventure and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles.

The had Wii some connectivity with the DS as well like how you could store Pokemon on Pokemon Ranch and you could also do some Mii stuff but not much beyond that.

I really wish that more games would do some fancy shit with WiiU and 3DS.

Why does everyone hates sonic boom? He is not badly designed. Everyone can agree, right? New sonic should be given a chance.

I think he looks decent. Sonic boom isn't a bad game.

There should be a sequel. He deserves another chance. Everyone needs to think it through.

Could e3 be another announcement? Or would it be another mobile game? Usually we would know by now. Remember sonic 06? That was a bad game.

Damn, e3 is close. Another month until it starts. Then all the shitposting comes about. Ever feel like every year is the same?

Are there actually people who think Roger Craig Smith is the worst Sonic? His depiction has way more nuance to the inflection in his voice, and he's much better at portraying a less antiquated cockiness for the character to have other than his stilted and insincere 90's shit. It helps that the man has good comedic timing as well.
