It seems like they're going for more of a Peach's Turnips type deal with the Pikmin, but I might be reading the description wrong.

actually it says that without pikman, he can't even do a smash attack. So I'm think that every attack he uses involves pikman and the amount of pikman he has determines how effective the attack is.

What the fuck? Isn't Olimar supposed to be like, 1 inch tall?

Ozymandias · « **Reply #554 on:** 09 Jan 2008, 19:29 »

Oh shit.

A continuity error!

Thy Dungeonman · « **Reply #555 on:** 09 Jan 2008, 21:20 »

Technically all the fighters are animated trophies, so he wouldn't be to scale.

CarbonatedWeasel · « **Reply #556 on:** 10 Jan 2008, 00:07 »

I totally thought that he would make a good smash bros character and now he is in it! Awesome!!

Now we need Ness back.

I dunno if I'd agree with that unless you really like Snake's ass or something. I like the picture below it much better, mostly because I could tell what the hell was going on.

You have to agree, it is pretty nice.

bryanthelion · « **Reply #561 on:** 10 Jan 2008, 13:43 »

It looks like he has a serious wedgie though. Although it is nice, I feel bad for him.

ImRonBurgundy? · « **Reply #562 on:** 11 Jan 2008, 02:48 »

This seems relevant to the current conversation:

Olimar's special moves are up. He looks like he's going to be a freaking blast to play.

CarbonatedWeasel · « **Reply #563 on:** 11 Jan 2008, 03:15 »

Stupid sexy Snake.

I think olimar is my new character!

MC · « **Reply #565 on:** 11 Jan 2008, 08:41 »

I always thought pikmin was a fruity game.... even worse so than pokemon. But Olimar seems like a pretty awesome charecter to play.

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #566 on:** 11 Jan 2008, 22:04 »

If Pikmin is, as you so eruditely put it, "fruity", that would make about 95% of Nintendo's games "fruity".

Storm Rider · « **Reply #568 on:** 11 Jan 2008, 22:49 »

The worst part is that there are people who would agree with that statement. I posit that these people don't play video games for fun as much as they play them for cathartic relief from the confusion that they feel from all the strange changes their bodies have been going through.

(What I am trying to imply here is that nobody over the age of 15 should accuse Nintendo games of being 'kiddy' or 'gay' unless they're stupendously moronic)

bryanthelion · « **Reply #569 on:** 12 Jan 2008, 22:25 »

I kind of take offense to that fruity comment . Also, they're radish flower things. They're vegetables if anything.

yeah it was a little harsh

I think we're entitled to our oppionions though. I should have said instead "I didn't really care for the game personally". That would have been more decent.

anyways.... back to smash bros brawl.

ImRonBurgundy? · « **Reply #571 on:** 13 Jan 2008, 15:49 »

I personally think oppionions are best served grilled on a turkey avocado melt.

Narr · « **Reply #572 on:** 13 Jan 2008, 17:19 »

I'm more of a fan of opinions served on rye bread with Russian dressing and sauerkraut, but I see where you are going with that.

Anyway,

I think I might take Solid Kirby and turn that into my Steam icon.

It's not that it was harsh. No one cares about your opinion about the game.

It was just stupid wording.

Scarychips · « **Reply #574 on:** 14 Jan 2008, 15:13 »

Challenge board à la Kirby Air Ride

Storm Rider · « **Reply #575 on:** 14 Jan 2008, 23:17 »

Delayed again! Fortunately, this one's pretty short. The new date is March 9th.

ImRonBurgundy? · « **Reply #576 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 00:41 »

Well, on the bright side, that means I will be jealous of my sister for a shorter time (We have a Wii at home, and we've already pre-ordered Brawl).

CarbonatedWeasel · « **Reply #577 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 02:22 »

Wasn't the game originally supposed to be released sometime around christmas or something?

Ozymandias · « **Reply #578 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 07:48 »

Feck. So close.

"Distant Planet" is beautiful, though.

SevenPinkerton · « **Reply #579 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 10:42 »

I'm surprised they didn't add in Yoda or Vader, since they seem to be up for grabs for games they don't fit in whatsoever.

Thy Dungeonman · « **Reply #580 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 10:54 »

I think that's a stretch, but now I suddenly see Yoshimitsu fitting in pretty well.

SevenPinkerton · « **Reply #581 on:** 15 Jan 2008, 11:06 »

^ considering Snake, I don't really see Yoda as a stretch as all.

I have got to see the Kirby-Olimar.

Storm Rider · « **Reply #585 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 01:20 »

Well, Sheik is back in but I think that was sort of expected. What I find interesting is that he has his own Final Smash, which could be interesting in what it does differently from Zelda's.

Also, after spending the last half hour listening to all of the music samples again I just want to reiterate that this game has an absolutely stunning soundtrack. Not only does it have incredible nostalgic value but all of the arrangements are absolutely impeccably composed. It's hardly surprising given the amount of musical talent that Sakurai roped in, but I love it to death anyway.

Shiek is still Princess Zelda. You are using the wrong pronoun.

Also I agree with the Music. It should be awesome.

Storm Rider · « **Reply #588 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 11:16 »

Tomato tomahto. In Ocarina while she is in the 'Sheik' persona she is referred to as a he, because that's the persona of the disguise.

0bsessions · « **Reply #589 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 11:34 »

Actually, to the best of my recollection, Sheik is not referred to in the third person at all.

The only times Sheik shows up is when Link is alone. Nobody else ever refers to her. The only third person references are after she's revealed to be Zelda, when Ganondorf kidnaps her toward the end.

Storm Rider · « **Reply #590 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 12:18 »

Are you sure? I haven't played Ocarina in years, but I could have sworn I saw Sheik referred to as a 'he'. Maybe that was online somewhere in a manner intended to obscure spoilers. In any case, this is all irrelevant.

Ozymandias · « **Reply #591 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 13:12 »

All three SSB:M trophies refer to Sheik as "she".

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #592 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 14:56 »

Wait, the player is supposed to think Sheik is a guy in Ocarina? Really?

Cause I always thought she was a she.

Narr · « **Reply #593 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 15:11 »

I think those of us more accustomed to the femininity of male protagonists in Japanese games thought Sheik was male initially. I know I did.

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #594 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 16:33 »

Well I'm accustomed to bishi boys in games, but not Nintendo games, and it never occurred to me to even doubt Sheik was a chick.

If she had been in a Final Fantasy game, I can see your point.

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #595 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 18:15 »

I always saw Sheik as a girl as well, then again I guessed right off the bat that it was Zelda in disguise. To be honest I am excited that she is back, I was worried that since they are using the Twlight Princess model she would not have returned

Famitsu gave SSBB a perfect score, the 7th game to actually get such a score.

KvP · « **Reply #596 on:** 16 Jan 2008, 18:42 »

I don't see the mannishness.

Just look at that high kick.

axerton · « **Reply #597 on:** 17 Jan 2008, 03:41 »

In Ocarina she did have a fairly mannish shout when she threw down the flash thing vanish.

One thing I don't think I mentioned when it was shown was Wario's original costume. Awesome.

pannic · « **Reply #598 on:** 17 Jan 2008, 06:25 »

When I played Ocarina, I definitely thought she was a man until her true identity was revealed.
The lack of any third-person references confuses me though; did she actually ever introduce herself in Ocarina? How do we know that her name is Sheik?

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #599 on:** 17 Jan 2008, 12:25 »

It's been a while since I played Ocarina, but I'm pretty certain she introduced herself.
