#214740 What is your favorite gaming system?

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 02 June 2013 - 12:20 PM

Probably the GameCube. A pretty basic console with a pretty fantastic library.

Oh, and a genius controller design. <3

#212768 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 29 May 2013 - 11:44 AM

Poor Waluigi isn't really relevant to the Mario series, though.

 

Even Daisy and Birdo have appeared in more canon games than him (that is, any at all). Regardless, I feel bad for the guy. When they excluded him from Mario Kart 7, I did get a bit ticked off about that.

 

Still there's a huge line-up of Mario games that would make it into the SSB series as playable first, like Bowser Jr. (unfortunately) and Toad.

 

But even with that being said, above all other Mario characters, Waluigi was one amongst only three total to become an assist trophy, and actually be hacked into playable form within the game during a long, thought out process including many hard working fans. If anything, I think Waluigi has one of the highest chances of becoming a playable character in the next Smash Bros. But definitely second to Bowser Jr., as his popularity has definitely escalated with the help of his numerous appearances in recent Super Mario titles. 

 

Characters that would like to see join the fray, would have to be... well... let me categorize it a bit;

 

Pokemon Series:

Zoroark (A popular Pokemon introduced in the most recent generation. An easy replacement for Lucario, just as Lucario replaced Mewtwo)

Pokemon Trainer (With different starter Pokemon, of course. Possibly using 2nd to 6th generation starters. That is, if the full evolutions to the 6th generation starters are revealed during development)

 

StarFox Series:

Krystal (Easy way to shovel in another female character in the male-dominated series of Smash Bros. Also a potential trigger to some more recognition for a somewhat dying franchise) 

 

Super Mario Series:

Bowser Jr. (Clearly a popular enough character to earn a spot in the next Smash Bros. installment. Also carries a lot of potential for an interesting moveset)

Waluigi (Same reason as above, though his current listing as a "spin-off character" hinders this possibility quite a bit)

 

Donkey Kong Series

Dixie Kong (Definitely would make for an awesome entry in the DK series of Smash Bros. And if anything, would definitely be the next character added to the DK division. At least... I think so)

 

Can't really think of any other characters that I would like to see make it into the next Smash Bros. as I'm tired of thinking... and typing. 




#197335 Some of my stuffs...

Haha, thanks Poison. :D

You too, Miltonius.

 

And just to raise some awareness, a petition favoring for the return and recreation of the Crash Bandicoot series titled 'Bring Back The Bandicoot' has been going for a few years now (and by few, I mean two...), and could really use some attention. Even the original Crash Bandicoot series character designer Charles Zembillas has joined in on the cause, so why not throw in a signature as well? That is... if you're a Crash Bandicoot fan...or care enough about him to sign... yeah. SO, uhh, check it out: http://www.gopetitio...-bandicoot.html

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Oh, of course I wouldn't just shamelessly advertise this, so here's a little something I drew dedicated to it:

#188525 Luigi's mansion dark moon is awesome.

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 31 March 2013 - 07:50 AM

How close is it to the original gameplay-wise? I think it's more likely that I'll buy the GC version before the 3DS one.

Don't take my word on this (since I've only watched a friend play it), but it seems that Dark Moon, like I mentioned before, takes on a more puzzle-like gameplay style in comparison to the original. So if you've ever played a LoZ title, then you'll find the game's play style to be quite familiar, requiring for you to really think to solve puzzles and progress further in the mansion. Dark Moon also offers more than one mansion to discover, and the ghosts are entirely new. There also doesn't seem to be any humanoid ghosts in the game (rather disappointing to be honest), that, and the bosses seem to all be the same type of ghost. The game still closely emulates the original, however, but I feel that DM adds a bit more to the experience with the additional objectives like finding all 13 gems per mansion, and finding a boo for every mission to unlock a timed ghost capturing mission.

 

So in a sense, DM is pretty similar to the original, but adds more to the experience with new objectives and slightly altered gameplay. Getting the original Luigi's Mansion would probably be a better idea, regardless, so that you can acquire a better perspective of the series, rather than just jumping into the sequel like I did. :B

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 21 March 2013 - 02:34 PM

Saturn. Get over yourself, for Christ's sake. Just leave. Attention seeking is only making you look more ridiculous.

 

ANYWAYS, I'll have to agree with Hunter on this dilemma. This is truly saddening, and never have I seen such a complete absence of moderation on a forum.

#138603 Why was my drawing deleted by an admin?

Posted by Manny T. Starr on 26 November 2012 - 03:23 PM

Keyword "his" it's not a she, so it wouldn't be considered nudity.





That's not the case. I see a lot of DB drawings, and none of them get deleted. They did make DB games for the Wii, and you can watch DB videos on Youtube and Amazon.

We can rule out nipples being the cause because my Bruce Lee drawing has not been touched.

I will never understand why this is so enforced.
And I can't really think of any reason as to why that awesome drawing would be taken down. =/

Eh, I wouldn't worry so much as to how long these combined updates will take for those who've yet to obtain their Wii U's. Let's just be happy that Nintendo's actually trying to fix their mistakes. c:
