Back for my quinquennial song thread post.

The only thing I'm not really ecstatic about is the return of the Nopon. I didn't find them amusing in the first Xenoblade, not even Riki, and I won't find them amusing in X. Other than that the game is looking to be everything I could've dreamed a Xenoblade sequel to be. It's possible, based on...

Didn't play many new games this year, but Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze turned out to be my favorite of 2014, and quickly became one of my favorite games of all time. It's absolutely fantastic in every conceivable way and I honestly think it deserves to be held in similar esteem to Mario...

That Twilight Princess has a good art style.

Brief summary of my thoughts: the Aqua subforum and chat were largely inactive; fewer than half of the active userbase even joined a clan; the competitions were kind of interesting, but participation was really low there as well -- is pursuing the idea really worth it? We pretty much failed...

Peach or Rosalina. I tend to be drawn toward female characters in video games for some reason. Peach's floating ability is also really useful in the games where she's playable, as is Rosalina's double-jump in 3D World.

Speaking in terms of level design themes, I'm really partial to all of Pipe Land from Super Mario Bros. 3. Level 7-5 in particular is a lot of fun. I love it because the levels are distinctly non-linear in a distinctly linear game, series, and genre. The first time I played through it, which was...

Full camera control, no motion controls; thank God. It's looking really great so far, and in spite of the fact that the footage wasn't direct, I'm incredibly pleased that we got to see anything at all before E3 2015, let alone gameplay. The size of the overworld seems to be living up to how they...

I like muted blues.

Another 6 AM shift and another sleepless night.

I see Ocarina of Time only as what it is: the first attempt at taking the Zelda formula and making it work in three dimensions. It accomplished its goal, and that's definitely not a small feat. Ocarina of Time will forever stand as a milestone in gaming history, having lit the way for all future...

They're all equally non-difficult in my experience.

Can I join and not participate in the competitions?

We unfortunately had to deal with some pretty bad lag due to problems on my end, but luckily it didn't have a major effect on the matches (except making me SD at the very end; but, hey, that's life). The matches were some of the most fun I've had in this game yet, though.

I think it's pretty clear Dark Master did nothing wrong and Kitsu was acting on impulse (not unprecedented). The infraction should be reversed.

My neighbors are having a very loud Michigan vs Michigan State party right now.

blackice_cc and I did our matches, I managed a slim 2-1 victory. First round was Link (me) vs Robin (him) on Arena Ferox omega, which I won. Then he switched to Falco and we fought on Spirit Train omega, where he won, and our last match was Link vs Falco again on Magicant omega, which I won as...

JuicieJ and I finished our matches, I had a 2-0 victory. I stuck with Link for both matches, he started out with Zero Suit Samus (I actually can't remember the stage, I think it was either Yoshi's Island or Prism Tower) and finished with Little Mac on Final Destination. He didn't seem to dig my...

That wouldn't have to be the case at all. At this point we've done nothing but introduce the idea of an award. What the criteria for receiving it would be, who'd decide its recipients -- the details have yet to be discussed. It's just an idea. What do you think would be the best way to handle it...

Why would an award not suffice? I absolutely support recognizing outstanding behavior within the ZD community, but what benefit is there in separating the outstanding members from the normal ones via rank?

If the Hylian Knights are to be reworked, I think it's important to make sure they're given a clearly defined purpose. I know they technically have some vaguely defined role, something to do with encouraging good posting quality or whatever. But from what I've seen, the Hylian Knights don't...

I beat PhantomTriforce 2-1. All three games were Link (me) vs Sheik (him). Our first match was fought on Green Hill Zone omega, which he won. Next was Final Destination, my victory, and finally Paper Mario omega, where I won again. Honestly, right from the start of the first match I thought my...

Mine and Scarfed's matches are done; I won 2-0. I played as Link the first time, he was Greninja and we fought on Arena Ferox Omega. For the second match I remained as Link and Scarfed switched to Robin. That match was on Final Destination. It was a lot fun, and I look forward to my match with...

I'll play. FC: 1633-4353-7203

There is nothing worth sacrificing full camera control for if the controller has two thumb sticks. Nothing. My hype for Zelda U would drop significantly if that feature were to be absent.

I've seen this mentioned a few other places, so I figured I'd share: If you watch this video at around 0:56, pay attention to Pikachu's square and you'll see another confirmed character.

Really happy to see that Shulk is in, as he'd been on my wanted list since I finished Xenoblade about a year and a half ago. I recently began to think Melia would make for a more interesting fighter, actually, but I'm just glad Xenoblade is getting any representation at all (and Sakurai made it...
