That was such a sad game! I think it was one of the only games I've actually cried about.

The Dreamcast was basically my console to play Sonic Adventure and that's about it. Though later on when they got remade I got exposed to Skies of Arkadia and Phantasy Star Online. Great games (though the latter is very dated.)

Just defeated the 4 poe sisters in the forest temple of OoT! Now to finish the rest of the temple.

I know three places that are a real pain though. Bottom of the Well, water temple and shadow temple. Have fun with that Neon.

I officially hate the Shadow Temple. It's more frustrating than the Water Temple.

Send Navi to annoy the bell out of Dark Link xD

Or use the big Goron sword and spam spin attack, that works. Oh and use Dins fire.

Nintendo has announced that on Monday, they're going to reveal a character for Super Smash Brothers. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-su ... 0-6421048/

Who do you think it's going to be? For me, if it's going to be an old character, it'll probably be either Ness or Captain Falcon. If it's going to be a new character, it'll probably be either Shulk (Xenoblade Chronicles), Chrom (Fire Emblem Awakening), or Marshal/Chorus Men (Rhythm Heaven series) since the Gematsu leak has gotten 8 out of 11 characters right and some people as spotted enemies from Xenoblade and Rhythm Heaven in Smash Run.

I would like more starfox or a tales of symphonia character.
But honestly I don't know, I just hope its not another pokemon. Since we have three already.

Kyuunado · Post by **Kyuunado** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 3:33 pm

Come onnnnnn Shulk. Nothing would make me feel better than using the Monado Buster on someone.

You guys should know my guess by now. =P

But just incase: Krystal. With the staff.

hypernovatic · Post by **hypernovatic** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 12:24 am

I'm still hoping for Mewtwo, but I'll accept Lucas, Captain Falcon or Ness.

Post by **ArcWolf** » Sat Jul 12, 2014 12:45 am

What?

Krystal in the new SSB?

[squeal]

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Sun Jul 13, 2014 11:38 am

If Krystal is not in it, at least one of the Belmonts would do as well.

Post by **Sleet** » Sun Jul 13, 2014 1:37 pm

I would be totally cool with Krystal. She's one of my top choices of those not already in the game.

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 11:41 am

Well sadly its not krystal (maybe she will be a secret character?) here is the smash site that revealed the characters http://www.smashbros.com/us/

Saturn381 · Post by **Saturn381** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:13 pm

I just saw the character reveal and wow, that was surprising. I expected Sakurai to reveal one newcomer, I did not expect three. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9ytrX0wweA

Your thoughts?

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:16 pm

There was talk of a Rayman trophy in the game. He might have just made four reveals.

I think at some point Nintendo needs to add a few other classic console characters, like Spyro or Crash. Actually doesn't Spyro have a game on the wiiU?

Kyuunado · Post by **Kyuunado** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:42 pm

I expect a few secret characters, they wouldn't just reveal everything would they?

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 3:28 pm

It'll be released in October, right?

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 3:44 pm

October 3rd 2014. With the WiiU version being in "Holiday" 2014, which means probably late November or early December. It may not be around the time the new Pokemon games release (mid November I think)

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Jul 15, 2014 9:14 am

I really wanted to see Lucina in Super Smash Bros., but had given up on her. This is great! And Robin? I have no idea who I even am going to play as! Not to mention they're retooling Yoshi so he might actually be worth playing now. I just hope Robin's limited-durability gimmick doesn't ruin him/her.

Shadowstar23 · Post by **Shadowstar23** » Wed Jul 16, 2014 10:30 am

Wait, I thought Captain Falcon was already in the game. I agree with you drake, they should add a tales of symphonia character to that list. I'm thinking Lloyd, Kratos, Emil, Genis, and Collete.

Post by **Sleet** » Thu Jul 17, 2014 10:53 am

Lloyd is pretty much the only one that would ever show up. When they're dipping into third-party titles, I doubt they'll go with anything but the most famous. I could see maybe Tails happening due to how huge Sonic is, but that's about it. And even that's a stretch.

Personally, I'm still hoping for Simon Belmont. Found myself playing Spirit Tracks lately...forgot how good of a game that is.

So at comic-con, there's a new set of DC comics figures designed in partnership with Square Enix, each being a new take on a classic character. The first to be revealed is Batman, designed by Tetsuya Nomura of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts fame. Wow...just...wow... O_O

http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg ... an_FF2.jpg (I was going to use IMG, but the pic is ginormous, so I'll play it safe with a link)

While it's not exactly my favorite batsuit, it definitely nails it in the coolness factor. I'd love to play a game with this batsuit, but I don't know if I'd trust Squeenix with making it. Judging by the tone and style of the suit, I'd go with either Platinum or CyberConnect to make "Batman: Revengeance."

Holy mother of god! If they're not going to make a game with this as one of the bosses....... That picture has and awesomeness level of 95.

Also, I've been playing a new tales of game called "Tales of Graces". The battle gameplay is a little bit more complicated than in previous games, but the story is really good.

Sakurai has shown a new stage for the 3DS version of Smash Bros.

Sakurai said:
«'Ba-ding!' If you turn on the 3D effect, it really looks like there's a Game Boy inside the screen.»

Your thoughts?

I think it makes me want to get Metroid II. Or some other older Game Boy games. Waves of nostalgia over it, that's for sure.
In essence, it looks AWESOME and I can't wait to try it!

Post by **Sleet** » Sun Aug 10, 2014 4:22 pm

After hearing discussion of Hyrule Warriors, I'm now strongly in favor of Ghirahim being in Super Smash Bros.: Conflict. He would be so cool!

Hey, guys! I found a game about one of Pete and spirit dragon's previous matches. Yes, they painted the dragon red instead of green and Pete is not as blue as in the comic, but hey, everyone makes mistakes, right?

I wasn't sure what to expect. But I am not disappointed.

I've been playing alot of Skyrim as of late again. I'm not even bothering with the main quest and just doing all the other quests and building Lakeview Manor in the game (I only have the Hearthfire DLC). Also been fooling around in Garry's Mod as of late as well, mainly taking pictures with the models I have in the game. Like this one ---

I recently started playing Banjo-Tooie again. I don't remember it being this hard though. I'm now having problems with trying to use the Egg Aim technique again. But it is really fun. I'm in Witchy World right now.

Dunno about Kojima's involvement. I would say the installments growing ever more action-centric caused the decline of the series. Del Toro seems to know better how to do actual survival horror.
