Captain America 4 is now out of wide release and is only in 440 theaters in USA/Canada. It’s essentially dead. Its world wide total is $414,321,833. It’s locked in for 6th lowest grossing film in MCU history.

Next up is Thunderbolts in 2 weeks. Let’s hope it does better because the lead up to Avengers 5&6 isn’t looking hot so far.

The only ones in Phase 5 that are major success was Vol. 3 and Deadpool & Wolverine.

Still think it would be cool to do both a proper “CvS/SvC” game with the wider casts of both companies, but then also do a “The King of Street Fighters” game which is just a crossover between the KoF shared universe (KoF, Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, Psycho Soldier, and Ikari Warriors) and the Street Fighter shared universe (Street Fighter, Final Fight, Rival Schools, Slam Masters, and maybe others that I’m not quite sure of).

I'm 27 and I already feel old lmao.

It's probably just a combination of gradually getting a lot of nostalgia for stuff I grew up with and a slight amount of dread as I try to figure out what the heck I want to do for a career path.

First off, it was really good.

Second, It is amazing how much the Kingpin storyline throughout the most recent MCU phases is so much more interesting, engaging and feels more interconnected than any of the multiverse ****.

Day 2 of posting fanmade Deltarune content. This one's a fan animation.


Based on the hints about Kris, Asriel and Dess' personalities, as well as some of the stories Noelle tells in Chapter 2, I'm fully willing to believe that almost everything that happened here is 100% canon.

It also seems to be rolling with a theory that Asriel and Dress used to date. Guess we'll find out if that's true when Asriel himself shows up and/or if we learn more about Dess at some point.

I have been slightly morbidly curious about Danganronpa ever since I found out Kodaka cited Illbleed as a major influence but I think thankfully there are many other games out there that shall keep me busy

Started Mega Man Battle Network 3. I know I could do more in MMBN2's post game, but I wanted to get to the next main title. I beat Flash Man, and he had a really sick redesign. I also got Gutsman V2 on my 3rd or so try. The good news was since I missed a save while journeying around(I lost to Flash Man's rematch, since I wasn't prepared for it)I could get to the Gutsman 2nd fight again without much trouble. And I cooked that ***** in front of his kid brother. Had to let him know was the real shooter in these digital streets.

Glad Mega Man starts with his charge shot now, I also like the new UI for the menus. Feels more futuristic.

Someone asked about why Danganronpa is considered bad yesterday and today I ended up seeing an interview of the new game from the writers of Danganronpa and Zero Escape/ AI Somnium Files and honestly this speaks for itself and has had me chuckling for a good ten minutes

"Aw you're so Sweet!" vs "HELLO?! HUMAN RESOURCES!?" but for game writers I guess.

Cause he's been built up through multiple projects, similar to Thanos, even if he's primarily a city level threat. Whereas all the Multiverse stuff doesn't feel like it has a clear enough throughline outside of Doctor Strange having to clean up messes and some extra character work for previous Spider-Man villains, who probably were some of the better uses of bringing back old actors.

Not sure what seeing Prof X for the 12th time is supposed to do, compared to Willem Dafoe's 2nd ever actual Green Goblin performance did. But whatever.

I think Ultimate's version of All Star mode may be the single worst game mode in any Smash game.

And I say that as a huge fan of Ultimate.
Agreed.

I get why they couldn't realistically do it the old way cause.... holy **** like 90+ characters that mode would have taken forever.


But making it a glorified



Makes me kinda wish that the mode had just sat this game out tbh.
Has anyone else been having difficulty getting the site to load properly lately?
Nah, not just you. Site's old and isn't being kept up on the backend all that much nowadays due to there not being much traffic.

I must have tried beating the mode over 100 times with K. Rool recently. And several more well before that.

No matter what strategies I tried, no matter how many of the CPU's tactics I exploited, no matter what moves I used, I have still yet to be able to beat it. I can't defeat more than about 70 of the characters. And I doubt I'd be able to beat it with any of my other mains.

Even with all the characters that are in Ultimate, I still think the original version of the game mode could've worked. I don't get why they didn't just do that (or otherwise cut it as you suggested). Same goes for the lack of a Boss Battles mode despite the considerable number of them in the game.

Next up is Thunderbolts in 2 weeks. Let’s hope it does better because the lead up to Avengers 5&6 isn’t looking hot so far.
I really hope that the Thunderbolts does well as the trailers looked really promising.


Your version of Smashboards now
That song makes me feel rather nostalgic.

Also speaking on Danganronpa, I have recently watched the animation series on Crunchyroll. Even though I felt it was decent in some areas, it seemed rather rushed.

Yeah, Captain America 4 definitely didn't live up to expectations. I too feel like Marvel is losing a bit of momentum with the last few movies.

Why can’t it just take forever to get through the mode? I’ve never once actually beaten this version of all-star mode but I have beaten the old one.

While not about the gameplay directly, the order is weird in some cases.

It’s based on Japanese order which means that some characters are ordered later because their games released earlier in the west. Examples are Dark Samus and Banjo.

Hero is the only character where the alt’s release date was used despite the main alt being from 2017. If this was the case with other characters then Bowser Jr would have used the Koopalings release date.

Characters that had full game appearance earlier then main debut in some cases aren’t counted which is the case with Roy who is after Sora because Melee isn’t counted.
