Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

I don't really care at all to 100% games. It's a miracle when I even get to the credits.

I don't really care at all to 100% games. It's a miracle when I even get to the credits.

I’ve got a bit of a completionist streak in me, ever since I completed my first Pokedex, but I have my limits. If a game is too frustrating to complete, especially for minimum reward, I just won’t bother.

 

[TheMightyP]

I actually did 100% Mario 64 DS.

It was fun but the reward was not worth it.

I’m sure there is one or a MCU film in Feb or March of 2027. I just don’t know the name off the top of my head.

The only MCU movie we know releasing in 2027 is Avengers: Secret Wars, which is releasing on May 7th.

 

[cashregister9]

The last game I 100%'d was Astro Bot not too long ago, and that was some of the most fun I've had 100%ing anything.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

The most recent game I really worked on completing 100% (or 101% in this case) was Pizza Tower.

The challenge of getting P-Ranks on certain levels got extremely frustrating at times, but for the most part I had an absolute blast challenging myself to get better at and eventually actually improving at the game. Finishing the game with a P-Ranked Pizzahead boss fight and a P-Ranked (although I might have lost it at the last second to taunt several times lmao) Crumbling Tower of Pizza was just the icing on the cake.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

The first game I ever 100% completed was the original Spyro the Dragon. I felt sooooooo good at the time, even though the game was...honestly kind of easy.

One of these days I'd like to get into 100% completing more of the games I really like. I'd love to complete the other games in the Spyro trilogy and the initial Ratchet and Clank trilogy (and maybe Deadlocked and the PSP games too. Screw everything else)

My ultimate 100% goal is to somehow, someway, complete the National Dex in a Pokemon game.

Everyone has that one Nick cartoon that was elite in their eyes but only lasted one season before it got banished to Nicktoons and cancelled so there is no merch, no revivals, no fandom, nothing.

[Wademan94]

Speaking of 100% games, I’m currently going through in PLA postgame and I’m trying to decide where to go next, so far:
-I’ve collected 17 plates and have yet to meet Volo at the Temple of Sinnoh for the last one
-I’ve caught all the Spiritomb wisps and tackled the Massive Mass Outbreak missions
-The only requests I have open outside the Paths of Solitude are the Sea’s Legend and I’m not sure how to open Requests 91-94 yet
-I’ve only found 10 Unown so far

 

[Xyro77]

I’m trying to 100% Dynasty Warriors Origins. It’s a grind fest but it’s non stop dopamine just mowing down literal 1000s of enemies.

 

[TheMightyP]

Last game I 100% on memory was Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

It was a pretty easy game to 100% (Shoutouts to Morphine Sword) but gacha elements can die.

 

[Wario Bros.]

There are people claiming Thursday's Xbox Developer_Direct is bigger than what is being teased.

Along with the 4th mystery title, described as a new installment in a "legendary" Japanese franchise boasting "decades of history," there could also be an additional surprise too.

We'll see.

Legends Z-A for sure

I don’t think Kirby’s supposed to have that

Why not? She's a Heroin

91 is something you get after Volo.

92 and 93 are the "bonus" missions for Shaymin and Darkrai if you have save data for SwSd and BDSP.

94 is the Genies you get after Giratina.

 

[Wademan94]

Well thankfully my buddy Vince has a copy of Shield I can borrow and I already have Darkrai in Violet so I think I’m set there.

Getting to the end isn't important if it ends all the same way. How you get there....is better to cherish the journey.

Sorry, finished Sanabi recently. Had a.....moment with Mari and her father (as a personality, now fully back) before the end......

 

[TheMightyP]

Me when Nintendo made a whole Dark Souls world in Mario Odyssey, just for it to be a boss fight and nothing else

Every so often I remember the episode where they crashed Human Kimberly's sleepover in the name of root beer.

And tbh who can blame them? Root beer is the best.

Finally finished the PokeDex up to Gen 8 and caught all of the Legendaries in both Sword/Shield. Also got 6 shinys for my efforts. My overall opinion of Gen 8 has definitely gone up now that I've completed the Sword/Shield DLC, The Crowned Tundra especially, but vanilla Sword/Shield is still the weakest entry in the franchise hands down to me.


Just have to decide now if I want to bite the bullet and buy the Digital DLC for SV or wait to see if I can obtain a copy of the SV+DLC Cart that actually includes all of the DLC and isn't just half on cart and half download. I hate The Pokemon Company so much for not just waiting a few extra months for the bundle like Sword/Shield did.

new pfp.

yes that is a Bessie Higgenbottom edit, for once my pfp matches the name.

Can't wait for Mewthree

 

[Cutie Gwen]

This looks ****in amazing, I especially like how most of the DLC characters in Strive post season 1 seem to be here for the sake of giving them some story as only season 1 included more story content

 

[TMNTSSB4]

still weird how Star vs the Forces of Evil could’ve been a Nicktoon

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Day 14: Mega Mewtwo X

Clearly, Mewtwo took a bite of the Gum-Gum.

I always find it odd how many Pokemon fans seem to forget this form of Mewtwo exists. Like, Mewtwo Y is by far the most well-known but this Mewtwo form is pretty cool in its own right.

 

[TheMightyP]

still weird how Star vs the Forces of Evil could’ve been a Nicktoon

Same with Adventure Time

Would've been radically different though since Nick never aired a PG cartoon and CN was more mature at the time.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I can't help but wonder how it would've turned out if it had been on other networks. I think Daron Nefcy pitched it to Cartoon Network once as well.

As glad as I am that Star was given actual magical powers unlike what was originally intended, I can't help but wonder how the ending would've been had literally any major difference regarding the show's directors or writers for the last season. The show could've been far more influential than it ultimately was and had a far more fitting ending than it did.

Sadly fitting that it premiered on the exact same day that the series finale of Games of Thrones did, which I actually liked considerably more despite all it's own glaring issues.

It’s always funny how Nick tends to choose the absolute worst of shows instead of the things that end up becoming money. They better be grateful for still having TMNT and Avatar money to compensate for those decisions.

Damn now I wish you didn’t remind me of how horrid and ****ty that finale was…also wishing they kept that season 1-2 momentum but with the season 3-4 end credits

Leonardo cutting shredder’s head off and splinter being stabbed through the gut. Both on screen.

We'll see.

Pretty sure is a double XBONE reveal with The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles and Mega Man Battle Network: Legacy Collection.

they would have exclusive content to compensate the waiting: like art of NetNavis based on Microsoft franchises; and a "dream match"-style special case with Halo characters (and also Sherlock is reverted back to Sherlock Holmes lmao)

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I mean, aside from like one or two episodes, I honestly thought season 3 was on par with the first two seasons.

Season 4 started out stronger, but quickly got worse and worse as it went on. The finale was their opportunity to salvage it, and it instead became the pinnacle of everything wrong with the show's final season.

 

[Z25]

Sonic 3 is out on DVD now and because of that, they dropped a bunch of deleted scenes.

A subplot from across them was going to be that Eggman was a Fortnite streamer sponsored by Prime Energy basically.

More importantly, this means that in Universe Eggman was popular enough to get a Fortnite skin.

Which means IRL a Sonic Movie Collab is fair Game with Jim Carrey’s Robotnik.

Give us Eggman and Agent Stone Epic Games!

Day 14: Mega Mewtwo X

Clearly, Mewtwo took a bite of the Gum-Gum.

I used to really hate this form.

It eventually grew on me thanks to Pokken tournament but like, making Mewtwo into a physical attacker was still certainly a choice.

 

[Knight Dude]

Finished another drawing. One I'm fairly happy with too. Goes to show what happens if you use actual references, whether it's a re-draw or not. Started on the line-work of one of my pencil drawings too.

As for the topic of 100% games, I've done that for quite a few, the Insomniac Spider-Man game, Mega Man 1-11, MMX 1-6, Samus Returns, X-Men Legends 2 I'm fairly certain I did, same with the Miles game. I also did for Soul Calibur 2, and Def-Jam Fight for New York. Simpsons Hit and Run. DBZ Supersonic Warriors, DBZ Extreme Butoden, Tekken 2, 3, 4, 5 and Tag 1.

There's mostly games I nearly 100% like every other Metroid I beaten, or just doing the main campaign. Obviously, that would be a much longer list. But there's like a handful that I did 90% + barring a few minor things I didn't care to finish.

Day 14: Mega Mewtwo X

Clearly, Mewtwo took a bite of the Gum-Gum.

I legit think of Mega Man X with Mewtwo and Zard's names. Zard X could've been an echo with Rock Smash but no switching. Not sure they'd do that now, but it'd be neat. Maybe tune up a few stats to make up for the lack of switching as well.
