Not only am I never going to be a mod anytime, but it has also tarnished my perfect attendance at the Random Images thread. Nobody seems to understand the pain and suffering I have to go through in my life and my days on the internet before I joined this forum. I tried to be more like the popular SPPF user, BCVM22, who taught me that there's such a thing as good and bad opinions and harshly proves the statements of gullible users wrong, but all I received was negative counter-arguments to my long-researched theories/ideas, to the point where I have to give up my opinions altogether because they really are as horrible as they are. What's worse is that I lost my friendship with Kaori, who told me to never speak to her again (making me assume that she wants to be my enemy), for she was tired of giving me advices I refused to follow for not only reminding me how horrible my life is, but also contradicting what BCVM22 said to me about opinions. I never wanted that to happen, and I'm trying to find a way to restore our friendship. All of this has happened because of my SSB4 character list, my episodic chronic stress about the future of the quality of movies and video games, and my stubborn personality. It makes me wish I was never a deep-thinker to begin with, or better yet, not human anymore. But I do not wish to be suicidal because there's so many things I want to see and go before I die. I don't know what I should do by now... ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/am-i-horrible-person-part-2-54286/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/gds-ssb4-character-list-54208/ Sun, 25 Nov 2012 16:36:29 GMT @Neosquid; has motivated me to create my own list of characters who are more likely to appear in SSB4. Like his list, it'll be realistic, and the following characters will be listed based on my 4-year-analysis from the past three games' rosters. The characters will be listed from 1 as most likely to 10 as less likely.

1. [SPOILER]Pac-Man

[IMG]http://pacman.com/en/wp-content/themes/PACMAN/images/footer_pacman.gif[/IMG]

Namco was confirmed to develop the next Smash Bros. games for the Wii U and 3DS, and whenever a popular third-party company is in development with a first-party title (or another third-party title), they add one of their properties as a cameo appearance. This only is the reason why Mega Man may never get a chance to appear, as well as Capcom's current treatment of him. Pac-Man has been known to be one of the grandfathers of video game industry, so imagining him fighting Mario and Sonic would be every retro gamer's wet dream. They'll probably use the design that will win that contest Namco placed on their Facebook account.[/SPOILER]

2. [SPOILER]Little Mac

[IMG]http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/littlemac-artwork-punch-out-wii-big.jpg[/IMG]

This tiny-sized boxer is slowly climbing his way to the top. He appeared as an assist trophy in Brawl, then he made a cameo appearance in the Japan-only game "Captain Rainbow," and finally his series got a reboot for the Wii. Although a characters needs to have the ability to kick in Smash, but since other fighting games have their own boxer characters (i.e. Balrog from Street Fighter), they could have him use lower jabs to replace his kicks. If Punch Out!! were to get a second rep, they may either use Doc Louis, Glass Joe, Bald Bull, or Mr. Sandman.[/SPOILER]

3. [SPOILER]Shulk

[IMG]http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/12/homsxenobladeheaderimg530px.jpg[/IMG]

Sakurai has commented that Nintendo hasn't made any new characters from AAA titles since Captain Olimar, thus limiting his character choices. His wish has came true with the existence of the critically acclaimed RPG "Xenoblade Chronicles." One thing I hope Sakurai doesn't do is going overboard on adding sword users in the roster (sorry guys, Samurai Goroh and Magnus may have to wait a little longer).[/SPOILER]

4. [SPOILER]Ridley

[IMG]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100215003148/metroid/images/5/50/Ridley_zerom.jpg[/IMG]

His appearance is long overdue. He first appeared in Smash as a background character in the Metroid stage, then he appeared in Melee's intro and in trophy form, and finally made an appearance as a boss in Brawl's Adventure Mode. Sakurai has explained how difficult it was to create Ridley as a playable character even with his team's best efforts, which sorta hinted that it's his size that's the problem, it's his play style. His appearance alone would make him look like a game breaker unless Sakurai found a way to balance him. Hopefully, Namco has found that way too to meet fan demands of the evil space dragon.[/SPOILER]

5. [SPOILER]Palutena

[IMG]http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/FCKEditorFiles//gaming-monarchs-palutena.jpg[/IMG]

The series is in need for more female fighters. Since Sakurai developed "Kid Icarus Uprising," that means he has found ways to give the franchise a second rep. Of course, Palutena has the better chance since she's been here since the very beginning. While the same can be said about Medusa, she's technically not a video game character, for she's the same character from Greek Mythology. Palutena, Little Mac, and Ridley are one of the last key-important Nintendo characters from the golden age of gaming (a.k.a. the NES era).[/SPOILER]

6. [SPOILER]Ghirahim

[IMG]http://zeldawiki.org/images/thumb/4/4f/Ghirahim.png/200px-Ghirahim.png[/IMG]

Sure he's a one-time villain, which is why I developed this theory: A one-time Zelda character will only have the chance to appear in SSB if he or she was from a recent game. Since Skyward Sword is the latest Zelda title, followed by his massive fandom, Ghirahim has an even better chance than Midna (Sakurai may have not been aware of her true potential during his early development in Brawl) and Skull Kid (unless a remake of Majora's Mask were to happen).[/SPOILER]

7. [SPOILER]Toad

[IMG]http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/f/ff/MvsDK_Toad.jpg/180px-MvsDK_Toad.jpg[/IMG]

Toad is the last of the 8 key important Mario characters who has yet to appear as a playable character. Sakurai has hinted that old characters will be receiving new moves, which means Peach could get a new standard B move, thus giving Toad a chance to shine. He could have a pretty interesting moveset related to spore effects. If you're one of the players who want to use Toad as a punching bag after getting sick of him telling you that your princess is in another castle, now's your chance.[/SPOILER]

8. [SPOILER]Mii

[IMG]http://www.igotwii.com/files/images/Mii/007-Mii.jpg[/IMG]

Sakurai has hinted that the 3DS version will include a customizable character which will be transferrable to the Wii U version. Our Miis fits the bill to this feature, as they're used as our avatars. One thing that could be awesome about it is that if we were able to choose which of our Mii to be used in the game, it means we'll be able to use Mii versions of characters we wish to see in Smash but never made it. That's right, now we can use our Batman and Naruto Miis to beat up Nintendo characters without actually having them for real.[/SPOILER]

9. [SPOILER]Iris

[IMG]http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110521000015/pokemon/images/d/d5/IrisBW3.png[/IMG]

I have already made a blog explaining my reasons why Iris has a higher chance at appearing in the game than the more popular female trainers such as Misty and May. She's around the same age as Brawl's Pokemon Trainer, she was given an important role in BW2, she is the current female lead in the anime (thus automatically disqualifying previous female leads to make it), and she has a potential play style to differentiate herself from Red by fighting alongside of her Pokemon (preferably Axew) due to her wild girl personality from her anime incarnation. That is why I despise her in general and why I will use her as Ghirahim's punching bag.[/SPOILER]

10. [SPOILER]Non-Specific Action Figure

[IMG]http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o272/OrangeRakoon/NonSpecificActionFigure.png[/IMG]

Ever since his appearance in Nintendo's Pre-E3 conference, he's received positive receptions from fans everywhere for his award-winning performance. Even Iwata knew he did a excellent job than Miyamoto and Reggie. While the premise of the Smash Bros. series is based around trophies, N-SAF is, well, an action figure, which is a tier higher than a mere trophy. He could be given a role as an ancient hero waiting to be awaken in SSB4's Adventure Mode.[/SPOILER] ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/gds-ssb4-character-list-54208/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/onms-character-list-ssb4-54190/ Sat, 24 Nov 2012 15:28:59 GMT Just when I thought Official Nintendo Magazine was being trustworthy with their last list, they started losing some with their new list:

[url]http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/44183/smash-bros-wii-u-12-characters-we-want-to-see-in-the-game/?page=1[/url]

There's way too many third-party characters on this list (it can only be 1-2 to go alongisde with Snake), and Sakurai has already denied adding Sukapon because of his complex appearance. Also, there isn't any Pokemon reps on the list. ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/onms-character-list-ssb4-54190/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/music-comparison-54054/ Sun, 18 Nov 2012 15:49:55 GMT In this blog, I will link out two music that sound similar to each other in the form of their upbeat (with thanks to @Kyumorph; to motivate me to post this). Here are a few comparisons:

This worries me because not even Mario and Pokemon could sell that much money on the first day. America, why must you be so obsessed with dark & gritty war simulators? ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/cod-black-ops-2-sales-54014/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/onms-list-ssb4-53930/ Wed, 14 Nov 2012 01:10:53 GMT [url]http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/43834/7-things-that-would-make-smash-bros-wii-u-beat-brawl/?page=1[/url]

I'm sincerely glad to see a website that lists things on what they want for the next Super Smash Bros. title that are actually doable, especially the idea for a special mode that allows you to play as Master Hand like how Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 allowed you to play as Galactus. And thank goodness they did not mentioned the characters they want for the next game, or otherwise this blog would've respond to their recommendations. What do you guys think about Official Nintendo Magazine's list? ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/onms-list-ssb4-53930/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/dying-consoles-53877/ Mon, 12 Nov 2012 02:47:38 GMT @MegamanDX; has sent me this article about the horrible truth of the future of consoles:

Why is it that they never use the protagonists' Vs. mugshots facing against the Vs. mugshots of the villain characters. On top of that, why didn't they give Red a Vs. mugshot in HG/SS nor reused Cynthia's Vs. mugshot in the Gen V games? I want to see Hilda/Rosa's serious face against Ghetsis' crazily intimidating expression to balance it off rather a gym leader/Elite 4 member/champion with a not-so-intimidating facial expressions. It's part of the reason why I want to see a Pokemon and Mario/Mega Man crossover happen, to give the Koopalings/Robot Masters and Bowser/Dr. Wily some sinister/serious/over-the-top expressions in their Vs. mugshots, and I won't have to embarrassingly avoid looking at the protagonists' serious faces in their Vs. mugshots. ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/vs-mugshots-53815/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/fantastic-sunday-53681/ Mon, 05 Nov 2012 01:38:41 GMT I'm having a great Sunday today for these following reasons:

1. I beat Black 2 today, and it turns out I may have overtrained half of my team. Here's my current team:

Tangrowth lvl 56
Emboar lvl 62
Starmie lvl 57
Scolipede lvl 61
Ampharos lvl 56
Flygon lvl 63

I'm furious that Iris uses an underleveled Hydreigon, which makes me question why GF decided to make Deino level up to 64 in order to fully evolve. I was expecting Grimsley to replace his Scrafty with Drapion, but nope, he along with Caitlin and Marshal still kept their in-game story teams. I still wonder if the credits will role again if you manage to beat the first BW protagonist like they did with Red, which mean I may not have beat the story 100%.

2. I watched Wreck-It Ralph today. Best. Movie. EVER! I especially loved the plot twists and the ending. ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/fantastic-sunday-53681/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/smg-dethrones-oot-53597/ Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:47:17 GMT [url]http://mynintendonews.com/2012/11/02/super-mario-galaxy-is-now-the-highest-rated-game-ever/[/url]

Am I the only person who cares for summer blockbusters to be included in the academy awards and hope that one of those films will win rather than another PG-13/R-rated Drama movie, which has been parodied by other comedic media such as Cracked. Seriously, the summer blockbusters seem to be the only set of films the audience give a darn about to determine the quality of Hollywood (whether it's original or based on an existing source material). Jaws was the first summer blockbuster that started the trend, and it won several awards. If the majority of summer blockbusters are positive (Ex: Avengers, TDK), then there is a healthy sign for Hollywood's future, but if the majority of them are panned (Ex: TFRotF, Green Lantern), then there is a sign of the moviepocalypse. So please, Hollywood, let a highly successful summer blockbuster at least win for movie of the year for once. ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/academy-awards-summer-blockbusters-53392/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/do-i-need-psychologist-53311/ Wed, 24 Oct 2012 01:25:51 GMT @Kaori; believes I have serious issues regarding my relationship between me and here in BMGF, and I need to use a psychologist. When I asked my father if I should have one, he responded no because he thinks I shouldn't worry about what the people who disagree with me think and I should ignore them. This made my friend really upset, and she wants me to stop listening to my father, which is a difficult choice to make. @Shiny Shinx; was on the right mind when he wished to see me irl to better understand the issues I'm going through, so maybe she could do the same to have a better understanding with my father, who has taken care of me all these years. Maybe I shouldn't listen to the vocal internet community and worry about the quality of a product, because as it was explained, they're just a minority no one listens to. Besides, I don't think a psychologist will understand anything about Pokemon or the Nostalgia Crtic (just the usual irl issues regarding politics perhaps). But still, should have myself a psychologist, or am I better off being placed in an asylum? ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/do-i-need-psychologist-53311/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/brawl-hack-w-playstation-all-stars-53241/ Sun, 21 Oct 2012 14:28:42 GMT [url]http://mynintendonews.com/2012/10/21/playstation-all-stars-hack-for-super-smash-bros-brawl/[/url]

@Dreamweaver; will enjoy this, but I can seem to appreciate hacks done in Brawl, because it's basically a cheap way for fans to get what they want instead of playing how it was meant to be played. ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/brawl-hack-w-playstation-all-stars-53241/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/human-pokemon-relationships-53054/ Sun, 14 Oct 2012 14:41:47 GMT By this, I mean in a romantic way. I never understand why the producers of the anime keep shoving these type of relationships in front of the audience from Latias to Meleotta. For one thing, it's labeled as beastiality, which is not only viewed wrong but also illegal (it's also a reason why everyone hated the plot for Sonic 06). However, @Knock Out; then told me that if a Skitty and a Wailord are able to breed despite being two different species, then why can't a human and a Pokemon? This gives me second thoughts on whether or not this relationship is either right or wrong, so guys, a little help on this information? ]]> Ghetsis-Dennis http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/53434/human-pokemon-relationships-53054/
