#43001 Hey Hey Hey!

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 21 November 2011 - 03:42 PM in Introduction Central

How's it goin' everybody?

Was searching some stuff up on Google about Smash 4, and came across the character thread here. As you can see, I decided to sign up and join the community.

I hope to have a good time and look forward to talking with you all.



#43007 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 21 November 2011 - 03:55 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Board the Platforms. That's all I ask. If not, at least bring back race to the finish. They could give every character a different level.

Paper Mario and Little Mac would also be nice...



#43009 Hey Hey Hey!

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 21 November 2011 - 03:58 PM in Introduction Central

Hey there. I can see from your avatar you like earthworm jim?


You got that right. One of the first games I ever played. Loved watching the cartoon too.



#43081 New Sonic Game

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 03:53 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I would prefer characters instead of recolors


Never have I agreed more with anything in my whole life. I'm sick of SEGA trying to substitute different forms of Sonic for other playable characters. I just want to play as Tails and Knuckles again (without the mech-shooting and treasure hunting).



#43115 Wii U + EA's Origin? Valve trying to get into Wii U?

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 12:06 PM in Wii U Hardware

Valve and Nintendo? That would be awesome! Nintendo knows that for the Wii U's online to succeed, they need to have great digital services. Steam would help significantly.



#43215 Sonic Colors 2?

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 05:50 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Whatever happened to the third storybook Sonic. It's supposed to be a trilogy, right?


Yeah, I remember reading somewhere about a third game.

Anyways, this Sonic Dimensions thing sounds really...fake. The whole multiple personality thing sounds like SEGA just played Four Swords Adventures. If they want to have different play styles, just bring in some of the other characters. We have characters who can fly and climb up walls. We have characters who can almost match Sonic's speed, and we have characters who could bring interesting (but not game ruining) play styles to the series. All they need to do is stop worrying about the whole 'stupid friends' complaint.



#43216 Miitropolis

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 06:00 PM in Wii U Hardware

This is a brilliant idea. I would love to see more interaction between Miis. Could make a great Smash stage too :laugh:.



#43218 Origin of your username

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 06:04 PM in The Café

To my dad, I've always been known as 'The Worm', because of how much I wiggled around when I was a baby. One day, while trying to come up with a username for another forum, my dad walks into the room and calls me 'Jumbo Worm' due to being, well, older. You can figure out the rest from there.



#43222 -

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 06:27 PM in The Café

I like Earthworm Jim. It looks cool. Also, it fits my username.



#43225 Count to 3000!

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 22 November 2011 - 06:38 PM in Roleplay and Forum Games

You are currently reading what is now post 572 on the thread "Count to 1000!". That is all.

We hope you enjoyed you're reading. Have a nice day.



#43393 Possible bots on Wii U?

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 23 November 2011 - 01:00 PM in Wii U Hardware

Bots are expected. People always like trying to show off their technological skills by creating bots and other software on consoles. They usually don't give up until they succeed, which is annoying.



#43534 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 24 November 2011 - 12:57 PM in Wii U Games and Software

On the topic of stages, anyone got some good ideas for stages?

I had an idea for a stage called Paper Theater based on the battle arena from Paper Mario 2. You would be fighting on the stage, and could use the set pieces as platforms. Just like in the game, the audience will throw items or objects at the players, and sometimes one of the set background pieces will fall over. After a little while, the curtains will close, leaving the players unaware of what they are doing for a second. When the curtains open back up, the stage set has been changed to something different.



#43559 What games would you like to see make an HD remake or revived on the Wii U

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 24 November 2011 - 04:16 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I would like for Nintendo to remake Super Mario Sunshine. I really love that game. That, for the two Pikmin games. They ported Game Cube games over to the Wii with new controls, so maybe they can do the same with the Wii U.



#44024 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 27 November 2011 - 01:29 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I always found it odd that only Wario got an alternate costume (the overalls). They could use Dr. Mario for Mario, Gooey for Kirby, Roy for Marth, Louie for Olimar, and more. I would've loved to see the actual Fusion Suit and Dark Suit for Samus instead of just recolors.



#44412 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 29 November 2011 - 12:25 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I hope they swapped out some of the Pokemon for different ones, then I would get a new move set.


I think PKMN Trainer should involve a different generation (probably 2 or 3). Mudkip, Grovile, and Blaziken would be pretty sweet. I'd also like to see Waluigi, King K. Rool, and Issac from Golden Sun as characters. OH! A new Metroid character would be great. Either Ridley, Dark Samus, or Sylux. Heck, Anthony Higgs would be cool too. Also Sukapon from Joy Mech Fight would make a great WTF character like Mr. G&W and R.O.B. (plus he`s heavily requested).



#44414 Metroid Series: Story, Gameplay, and Future speculation

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 29 November 2011 - 12:33 PM in General Gaming

The Metroid Prime games were great at providing a gloomy atmosphere and isolated feeling,which is something I found Other M and even MP3 strayed away from. Metroid Fusion was good, but I didn't enjoy being told where to go all the time. The labyrinth design was some thing that kept me interested in Metroid. Other M's rooms were too linear, but there were some creative hiding spots for items. I would like a third or first person Metroid game for the Wii U with an online system like Hunters, and maybe co-op somehow...



#44416 Your favorite video game character?

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 29 November 2011 - 12:46 PM in General Gaming

Earthworm Jim: Crazy, wacky, and unique design that sparked my creativity when I as younger. I really liked his cartoon personality too.

Dr. Robotnik/Eggman: This guy is just awesome. He is goofy and funny, while still retaining the evil nature he needs to be a villain. Seriously, he defeated Super Sonic, and blew up the Earth. He chained up and held whole planets hostage. He has almost wiped out existence, and for what? To build Eggmanland, which he basically did in Sonic Unleashed (It's the final level).

Dry Bones: I really can't explain this one very well. He just stands out from other enemies for me.



#44719 Your favorite game that no one plays

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 01 December 2011 - 12:27 PM in General Gaming

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy on the Game Cube. Great game play, great music, great bosses, great fun, especially with 4 people :laugh:.



#44729 The New Super Smash Brothers Game Wishes

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 01 December 2011 - 01:02 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I've got a good list here, so lets get started:

1. A NEW ADVENTURE MODE

The Subspace Emissary in Brawl was a hit or miss inclusion. Some people really like it (like me), but others do not. Maybe it was the repetitiveness, or the lack of enemies from other games other then Super Mario Bros, or even the fact that you don't actually visit any of the game's worlds (except for Sky World). My idea for a new adventure mode would be something like Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. There is one main hub area, and the other worlds are scattered around. The world's would be interconnected, and there would be a boss in each one. Don't know what the story would be, but the villain should be someone we know.

2. RETURN OF OLDER STADIUM MODES

Melee got rid of Board the Platforms. Brawl got rid of Race to the Finish. What's next? Are we going to lose the Home Run Contest? They need to either create some new modes, or bring back the other ones. Board the Platforms was awesome, and really tested your jumping skills. Race to the Finish was a fun break from Classic mode. Having these return would be fantastic.

3. NEW MULTIPLAYER MODES

We've got Time, Stock, Coin, Team, and Special game modes in Multiplayer. Some new modes would be awesome. Tag Team would be great. One person on each team would be fighting, and the two partners could swap out at any time. King of the Hill mode would work so well in this play style. People knocking others out of the ring to gain control of it.

4. CHARACTERS

Duh. Characters are a must. I would love to see:

Waluigi (Super Mario Bros.)
Little Mac (Punch-Out!)
Bowser Jr. (Super Mario Bros.)
King K. Rool (Donkey Kong)
Krystal (Star Fox)
Chibi-Robo (Chibi-Robo)
Victini (Pokemon)
Sukapon (Joy Mech Fight)
Megaman (Megaman)
Geno (Super Mario RPG)
Paper Mario (Paper Mario)
Issac (Golden Sun)
Ridley (Metroid)

Some more obscure characters (which probably won't happen):

Space Pirate (Metroid)
Mach Rider (Mach Rider)
Akari (1080 Snowboarding/Wave Race)
Lanky Kong (Donkey Kong)

I would also love to see Earthworm Jim and Banjo and Kazooie, but there's no real chance.

5. STAGES
Personally, I found Brawl to have quite a few lack-luster stages. I'm hoping for a few stages:

Bowser's Castle (Super Mario Bros.)
Stricker Stadium (Super Mario Strikers)
Galaxy Voyage (Super Mario Galaxy)
Skyloft (Skyward Sword)
Spirit Tracks (Spirit Tracks)
Planet Aether (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
Patch Land (Kirby's Epic Yarn)
Route 1 (Pokemon)
Tetris (Tetris)
Angel Island Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog)
20XX (Megaman)
Paper Theater (Paper Mario)
Living Room (Chibi-Robo)
Championship Match (Punch-Out)
Mii Plaza (Or whatever type of Mii hub)

That's all...for now...



#44744 HATERS?(in general)

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 01 December 2011 - 01:36 PM in General Gaming

People are going to continue to believe that Nintendo is just kiddie games with terrible graphics. These same people play nothing but Call of Duty all day and think that they are hardcore gamers because they do so. These people are scared of vibrant games, and would rather play games with dull and bland environments. They bash every Mario and Kirby game for being childish because of their easy difficulty and brighter characters. These are the people I argue with everyday, and I'm tired of it. As for the Wii U? People aren't even giving it a chance. Whenever I bring up the console, they just laugh and continue talking about World War Shooting 87. Seriously, it's got to end. I'm an all around guy. I own a Wii and a 360. If I had the money, I would own a PS3 too. People just don't like to try new things and would rather mock people who do. *sigh*...



#44801 Retro Studios are working on a Wii U game

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 01 December 2011 - 05:06 PM in Wii U Games and Software

They need to make a new F-Zero. Now. They worked on the track designs and layouts for Mario Kart 7, so they already have some sort of practice with racing.



#44808 Your Favorite Video Game Music

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 01 December 2011 - 05:17 PM in General Gaming

Though I question most of the stage choices in Sonic Generation 3DS, I can't help but LOVE this remix:




#46056 The New Super Smash Brothers Game Wishes

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 09 December 2011 - 03:27 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I bet this will be a broken character. Anyway, I wonder if they would have customization?


I think the only real customization would be if your Mii is a heavy-weight, average-weight, or light-weight character depending on their size and, well, weight. If you could customize their move set, someone would eventually find the perfect combination to make a broken character, unless their is some sort of limitation in the customization. I wouldn't mind playing as a Mii, and their specials could be as simple as a rolling a bowling ball into an opponent, or hitting a golf ball at someone. They could have a magic attack based on the color, just like in the Find Mii mini-game on the 3DS.



#46060 New Sonic Game

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 09 December 2011 - 03:41 PM in Wii U Games and Software

The entire reason Sega began to drop supporting roles in Sonic games was because "fans" kept mother doging about it. These are the same "fans" that say Sonic games are bad because he is skinny and has green eyes.


These are the people who make me ashamed to be apart of the fan base. These are the same people who won't let go of Sonic 06' and the bad rep it brought to the series, despite the game being released almost 6 years ago. These are the same people who cancelled their pre-orders for Sonic Generations because Silver was a BOSS FIGHT (a really good one IMO).


I'd personally be cool with what they do either way, but for the people who aren't satisfied with alternate colours, here's an idea.

Each colour would likely represented a different ability, right? Now, if each colour were to have a different personality, that could easily change up the story (co-op, internal fighting, better script etc). Hmm... maybe... how about:

Yellow: A smart, mechanically adept Sonic.
Red: A feisty, straightforward Sonic.
Green: The 'It's all about Speed' Sonic.
Black: The Chaos Control Sonic.
Silver: The Telekinetic Sonic.
Pink: The really, really, REALLY annoying Sonic.
Blue: The normal Sonic.

cwatididthar?

You could probably go further and give them details:

Yellow: Holds a wrench and has a propeller backpack.
Red: Wears spiky gloves.
Green: Wears snow goggles.
Black: Holds a gun?
Silver: Covered in illuminating marks.
Pink: Holds a hammer.
Blue: Generally, has this expression most of the time: http://fc00.devianta...dam_Novagen.png


This is a pretty good idea, but I'm not big on having the different Sonic's impersonating the other characters, when the other characters could easily be implemented into the game. All SEGA has to do is find a way of making each character unique and fun. I believe if you replaced the werehog in Sonic Unleashed with Knuckles, and made the levels to match Knuckles's speed, it could have gotten more applause then hate, but that's just me.



#47230 Let's Talk IPs!

Posted by Jumbo Worm on 13 December 2011 - 07:21 AM in Wii U Games and Software

The Wii U needs something fresh. For example, Chibi-Robo was a unique IP that Nintendo has left behind (except for a couple of handheld games). It basically brought the perspective of the show George Shrinks, and turned it into a unique game. Nintendo really needs something new to bring to the table. Mario and Zelda games aren't going to keep them going forever.
