[quote name='Desbreko'][color=#4B0082]Less suckage and off-topic posts, more SSBB imo.[/color][/QUOTE] Yoyoi, not my fault no one cares about the return of the best stage evar. Hyrule Temple is where Haku and I (but mostly Haku) participate in some of our most epic brawls. I usually get slaughtered fairly early on, but with more than 2 players, I can get a few hits in sometimes. Oh, and I learned something a while back about Smash while playing a newbie: hit and run... doesn't work well. I usually end up on a one way trip to sailing off the stage land that way. But you probably all know that. Or maybe I'm doing it wrong?:confused:

[quote name='haku877']This smash ball thing, when you hit it it diminishes a little..thats ok, but the significant point loss smash is good for you ace you'll get a smash like every 10 seconds lol:animesigh[/QUOTE] That's right folks, I suck at Smash, too. But I still play. I was actually referring to the fact that I suck at life, but whatever. I need a taco...

Anime What are You Watching/Reading Now?
The Spectacular Professor replied to 2010DigitalBoy's topic in Otaku Central
I just caught up to the FMA manga the other day. Whew, you want conspiracy theories... *shudder* I like Ed's personality when it gets down to friends in danger, but it sometimes makes me wonder if the kid's bipolar. -
Manga Fullmetal Alchemist Manga
The Spectacular Professor replied to anime[blood]'s topic in Otaku Central
I find it quite hard to believe no one else has read this in over a year, especially since it's an ongoing series. Anyway, I think Arakawa is approaching the endgame. Reasons (MASSIVE SPOILERS DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU HAVE READ CHAPTER 77. THIS MEANS YOU, ANIME WATCHERS! IT'S NOT THE SAME STORY! [spoiler]-All the homunculus have been revealed. (Selim Bradley is Pride, Ling is the new Greed.) -Hohenhiem's big secret and the origin of "Father" have been revealed. -The Elrics have rescued Winry from the government's grasp. -Al's body is starting to call him back, meaning there's little time left. -Winry and Ed is more or less canon now. -"Father" is setting something up big with five chosen alchemists (although the fifth isn't decided yet.) -There's only one point on the giant pentagram left. -Finally, there's not much left to reveal.[/spoiler] Anyone else think so? I personally think the ending is shaping up to be amazing. -
[quote name='Premonition'][COLOR="77656"]I know this Ace. Some places you aren't able to use it for reports because of false information and whatnot. Adn the Librarian's son at school put himself as a pro-cricket player living in Norfolk NY. But that's not deleted, so they must not regulate it well[/COLOR][/QUOTE] You try regulating a site where millions of users submit random stuff about thousands of different things and see how easy it is to let it fall in the crapper with one false move.:smirk:

[quote name='Premonition'][COLOR="77656"]Gavin, anybody can put somehting into wikipedia, so that soarce isn't legitimite. I could say that I'm and 28 year old livin inCalifornia on wikipedia, when I'm just a minor living in upstate New York. So Gavin, you failed oon that part.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] And it'd get deleted, because it's an article about someone who nobody knows who has had as of yet no lasting effect on the world. What, you don't think they regulate wikipedia?

Gaming The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

[quote name='SaiyanPrincessX'][SIZE="1"]I'm hoping to get Twilight Princess soon; for GCN, but I don't know if its worth the purchase.[/SIZE][/QUOTE] [SIZE="4"][B][I][U]IT IS.[/U][/I][/B][/SIZE] No, seriously, you won't be disappointed. TP is just about the epitome of awesome on GCN. -
Alright, I'm going to make one final point and leave it at that. All who say it should be legal because we shouldn't need to protect people from themselves: Suicide. Why is that illegal? I'll leave you to mull over that.

Manga One Piece Manga [Warning: Spoilers]
The Spectacular Professor replied to Tatsubei Yagyu's topic in Otaku Central
Well, looks like [spoiler]Odz[/spoiler] is done. [spoiler]I'm not sure he's really "dead," though. Is anyone else thinking he might still have Luffy's shadow? Either way, Moria doesn't seem to have any overly remarkable abilities, so once he wakes up and finds out that Odz is a paraplegic, he'll probably have to concede.[/spoiler] -
[quote name='DeathKnight'][color=crimson]Very. I am a cannibal who eats people who argue without thinking it through rationally. I ate The13thMan's liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti. ;)[/color][/QUOTE] You forgot the hissing noise. THTHTHTHTHTHHHH!

Well, it's that time of year again. "Time for another Ill-conceived attempt by Ace to strike up a conversation in the Ampitheater?" No! Christmastime! Anyway, this thread is to discuss all the holiday specials that air around this time that we all feel we simply MUST watch, despite all the times we have in the past. Of course, this can mean anything from live action to cartoon to the Muppets. Anyway, What TV specials do you watch Every year about this time? I usually try to make it a point to see "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and the Mickey Mouse Christmas Carol (Is that the name? I can't remember exactly.) They're classics and I enjoy watching them again each year, although it appears I missed my chance on Charlie Brown this year. Also, I apologize if you find my use of the word "Christmas" offensive, although I tend to consider it a bit anal to get uppity about that kind of thing.

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]That's profiling, dude. You suck now. :animesmil[/FONT][/QUOTE] I could swear I always sucked. Hey, Haku, have I always sucked? Meh, whatever. I'll leave WM alone for now. I'll probably never play as him anyway. EDIT: YEEEEEES! HYRULE TEMPLE IS BACK! Excuse me while I throw a spontaneous party at the nearest available location.

[quote name='Goodbye, Face'][font=arial][size=1]I agree that it should not be legalized for medicinal value alone, rather, my argument was simply that it's a relatively safer version of tobacco.[/font][/size][/QUOTE] Syphillis is a safer STD. Doesn't mean I want it any more than AIDS. (Joke stolen from Nerdsy.)

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Ya. You think that might have been a bit of humor creepin' in there? :rolleyes:[/FONT][/QUOTE] Sakurai really shouldn't try too hard for humor in a language he speaks broken fragments of.:animesmil
-
[quote name='Desbreko'][color=#4B0082]This means that at least his special moves have gotten a power boost, and the "also" implies other moves have as well.[/color][/QUOTE] After that, though, it says that you SHOULDN'T try to ride it. The screen impiles that it moves at suicidal speeds if you do. I'm sure there's something there to impress me, but so far I'm vastly underwhelmed. I probably shouldn't have worded it so harshly, though.

I'm not sure what the problem is here. Last I checked, Marijuana is perfectly legal and an acceptable thing to smoke here in the US. When you're about to die most painfully and have no other way to null it. Any other uses: No. Not even thinking about it. Besides the fact that it's way too abundant around where I live, getting high for no reason is just plain stupid and irresponsible. Even for the "responsible" people, I see both no point and little self control (I must question how you got into it in the first place.) And finally, I don't care if you revolutionize the country to make fish-slapping common practice, no amount of lobbying for legalization is gonna get you out of this. EDIT:[quote name='Premonition'][COLOR="77656"]The government should legalize it for awhile and iif it gets out of hand illegalize it. But if it goes off without a hitch, they should either think their decidsion or legalize it. I've said that before, and it seemed no one had a prolem with what I said.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [IMG]http://will.incorrige.us/facepalm/picard.jpeg[/IMG]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]I just don't like Wario period, so I couldn't care less about his moves. :animesmil[/FONT][/QUOTE] That I can live with. I always thought he was pretty cool until Nintendo decided to work the Potty Humor aspect up. I think he's just annoying now, although WarioWare is kind of fun.
-
[quote name='Desbreko'][color=#4B0082]I wouldn't be too quick to knock Wario's final smash. We have no idea yet about just how much of a power boost he gets. Bob-omb strength special attacks would be nothing to scoff at. Notice how fast it looks like the characters are flying after being hit by his shoulder tackle and bike in those screen shots?[/color][/QUOTE] See, the thing is, the site itself says there's no significant boost to his power. I'm just going to regard it a Zero Suit Samus without a huge devastating attack beforehand until I find out otherwise or see him in action. From what I can see, though, he sucks. Oh, and rendering the bike as a suicide move? That I don't like at ALL.

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Let's just say that if Marth does not return, I will be extremely angered. As in, Alex will look like Naps the Cat by comparison.[/FONT][/QUOTE] Wait, how do you know what Naps was saying? Do you speak cat? For all you know he could have been saying very derogatory things about each and every one of our mothers. Oh, and Wario has the most absolute. freaking. worst. final. smash. ever. EVER.

[quote name='Lunox'][font="trebuchet ms"] HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 4!!!!11[/font][/QUOTE] The scariest thing to think about is the fact that you probably didn't mean to hold shift for those exclamation points.

[quote name='cancer'][SIZE="1"]So I'm making a movie poster for my final Intro To Computer Graphics class project, and I'm curious what people would like to see made into a movie. What kind of movies or games would you like to see spoofs or remakes of? Or what new kind of movie would you like to see made? I want to get an idea of what the most popular genre would be and whatnot. [/SIZE][/QUOTE] I'm partial to parodies, myself, but I'm thinking if all you need is a poster, I only have one word for you: Freakazoid. If you're planning on actually making a movie of it eventually, maybe not, but it would still be fun to see.

Otakuboards Wish List [IMAGE HEAVY]

[quote name='DeathKnight'][color=crimson][b]Russia[/b] [img]http://www.geographyiq.com/images/rs/Russia_map.gif[/img] Then I could conquer you nubs and take your stuff.[/color][/QUOTE] Oh ye of little ambition. [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg/300px-The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg[/IMG] Guess what we're doing tonight, Pinky. All you with the Wiis on your wishlist: good luck with that. (I want one, too. Badly.)

Okay, That was a good episode. I was a bit disappointed at a little bit of toned-down violence, But I know for a fact that FUNi did much better than they who must not be named would have. Voices are amazing, especially Doflamingo, Mihawk and Shanks. (I think I've fallen in love with Doflamingo, despite the fact that I'm totally heterosexual. It's the walk.) Also, I would like to point out something that we all know 4Kids would have edited, despite the total pointlessness of it. Remember the part where Doflamingo's doing his [spoiler]marionette[/spoiler] thing and it kind of looks like he's giving someone the finger? It's still there. On a final note, I never noticed how poor voice direction was in the original dub. I watched a clip of the "lollipop on the sword" scene. I wanted to yell out "Luffy! Stop Yelling!" His old VA knows no calmness. Also, remember the time They thought it would be a good idea to have Anime characters sing the National Anthem? I watched it again. I died a little inside.

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]And since Konami markets to all major platforms indiscriminately, my point is proven. (Anyway, I know [I]Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes[/I] was at least a Gamecube release, so I had a backup already.)[/FONT][/QUOTE] Yeah, that's the point. 3rd party is the most diversity you will ever see in this game. Now: Earthworm Jim. Discuss.

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]The market for the SSB series is Nintendo's all-stars, so I do not believe any Sony or Microsoft originals will show up. Sega and Nintendo used to run together, which is why Sonic showed up, and I don't think Solid Snake was platform-specific. (I'm still skeptical about the legitimacy of his inclusion...but hey, it's Solid Snake.)[/FONT][/QUOTE] Metal Gear is Konami, I believe. Anyway, it was announced somewhere (I think) that a prerequisite for third parties is that they have appeared on a Nintendo console at least once, so no Master Chief for you. (Hey, Viewtiful Joe? That sounds Groovy! Speaking of which: Earthworm Jim for Brawl. Discuss.)
