Orange Crush Rush posted:Wait, is this another fan character or something official Part of the Archie comics. Literally Sonic from an alternate dimension where he and his friends are the Bad Guys. The current main writer have him a power up and made the character... less of a terrible fan character? But anyway, a former main writer sued Archie after getting mad about all of his Knuckles clone characters being copied by Sega or Bioware for that lovely DS RPG or some stupid poo poo, who cares, long story short, since " Evil Sonic" first showed up in a story he co-wrote, he's not showing up again because that whole cluster gently caress caused Archie to almost lose the Sonic license. tldr: yeah sonic fans be crazy Chibs fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Sep 11, 2014 |

The Sonic comics probably have tens of thousands of characters by now. But the games certainly aren't setting a good example.

Also I heard if you plant a sapling and leave it alone it'll eventually grow on it's own, know if that's true?

Knowing that two people playing villager will inevitably become stuck in a game of hot potato with a fully charged something or other sounds great.

The fact that Villager's pocket move can pocket just about anything is amazing, and I'm not even that interested in playing as him. Someone said you can pocket Mega Man's leaf shield WHILE Mega Man is still wearing it, which is pretty funny. Did someone try out if you can pocket the water from Mario's FLUDD yet?

On top of using the axe to hit people, Villager can push people really far away just by trying to water them. At least, that's how it was in the E3 demo. Someone try watering their opponent and see if they fly like a third to halfway across the stage. No damage from what I recall, just a whole lotta pushing.

Spanish is my first language. Therefore, I feel the need to say holy poo poo does Dedede's name sound stupid when the Spanish announcer says it. It's how it'd be pronounced in Spanish but it doesn't sound okay at all. The Japanese version uses the same sound for "de", but puts strength in the first "de", which sounds quite a bit better, they should've gone with that. Or you know, stick to the English pronunciation, that's fine too. Also I like Villager's Spanish name, Aldeano. It's just a straight translation but it sounds nice enough and it has rural connotations so it works perfectly. That said, nothing is quite as funny as Dorpsbewoner, and I really like how the announcer hammily says Murabito. Maybe Villager is just great in every language.
