when is someone gonna make a dope ass sumo game?
Twilight Princess
>>740026241
>>740026435not a gamebarely maybe
Just vibe code oneDon't forget to include a random event where a woman enters the ring and then you purify it with salt
>>740027549shuuuut the fuck up
>>740026241imagine if they didn't wear that underwear and had their tiny dicks and balls flopping around
>>740026241You can make sumo wrestlers work in fighting games with a bunch of other fighting styles because then nobody will expect them to make the sumo style in actual depth, but a dedicated sumo game would be hell to actually make. You'd be button bashing constantly.A stable manager game would be cool though.
>>740026241every fightan game with a sumo character is good enough
What if one of them ripped a big fat nasty fart while fighting
>>740026241I've wanted one for a while, but probably never. The last licensed game came out over 20+ years ago.
Feels like sumo is almost completely gone from the public consciousness.
>>740026241I want a beya sim. You have to manage your roster, keep them healthy, help the smaller ones beef/fatten up (so cooking and inventory management), arrange for escorts, etc., all before the basho. And how you do determines your stats going in.
>>740027802Hot. >>>/hm/2684632But also mawashi are integral to the sport, otherwise you'd have them clawing at each other trying to find purchase to do throws.
>>740027802>Sumo eroge where the ref dude is behind you yelling NOKOTTA NOKOTTA NOKOTTA every time you thrust.
>>740028032The rise of university sumo has led to pro sumo having tighter parity, which means it's harder for standouts to dominate which is what draws audiences. You don't want one single guy who makes everyone else look like a clown every single tournament for years straight, but on the opposite end you want the yokozuna to actually feel like they're the best.
>>740027802This was allowed until Meiji westernization.
>fights last 15-30 secondsWouldn't work well with online. Maybe if the matchmaking was done beforehand but it'd be awkward.
>>740028305wtf man, i didn't need to see that...
>>740027549Kill yourself.
>dope assWhat is this, 2008?
>>740027970They do all the time, but they use special anal suppressors so it doesn't make a noise.
>>740026241what's the fucking point of a "sport" that by design requires you to utterly destroy your body beyond recognition
>>740028804sorry, tho tbhfam it's an /hm/ link replying to a reply about naked sumo wrestlers, I don't know what you expected.
>>740029179live forever
Sex with a rikishiReveling in the closest I'll ever get to the apex of raw human powerBurying my face in his hairy fatpad
>>740029187sumo is fun to watch? idk how a game would go but it is an interesting sport regardless. the Japs do a tourney every other month (6 a year) that lasts 15 days. can catch some streams on Twitch when it happens.
>>740029904Well you see. A long time ago in a faraway land, there was a sport that resembled sumo. The aim was to defeat an opponent inside a rectangular area. The rules were very similar to sumo. However, the difference between this and Japanese sumo was they wore armor. In the midst of this, a boy who didn't wear armor appeared. He wore only dirty trousers and a shirt. His family was too poor to buy armor. But he was so strong he became the champion. The king was moved by this and wanted to give him armor as his prize. However, the boy turned the prize down. He claimed that because he was too poor to buy armor, he became as strong as he was. The king, after hearing this, issued a decree outlawing armor and only allowing a single cloth around the waist. With the rule changed, everyone thought of the best usage of the one cloth. What resulted was something like underwear that wraps around the lower body. This way of wearing was named the boy "Mawashi". And this method of cloth around the lower body later came to Japan.And it became known as the Greco-Roman style.
Virtua Fighter had a sumo guy.
For me it's Futagoyama Sumo Food YouTube channel.
>>740026241Best I can think of
>>740027970>not wearing your sumo plugDisgraceful
>>740030298Sounds pretty gay.
>>740029904They're just beefy strong dudes, it's not like they're roided bodybuilders.
What a weird sport. I find it oddly satisfying to watch whenever I see it though.
>>740027893>A stable manager game would be cool though.>>740028192would be a great gameyou could also add in shit like mandatory retirement age, having to pass on your name and all the politics involved in backroom deals
>>740029904They're metabolically healthier than anyone taking PEDs
>>740030593retard
>>740030685>all the politics involved in backroom deals>Surprise procedurally-generated yakuza negotiations.
>>740030527oooh yeah toribash is kino
>>740030386
>>740026241Did you know Sumo are not Japanese? It is impossible for Japanese physiology to put on that kind of weight and musculature no matter how much they eat. In truth sumo are an ethnic enclave that disguised their origins to avoid Japan's stigma against foriegners, possibly a lost tribe of Israel.
>*casts magic instead of wrestling*ura, strange man...
>>740028580I don't see how you transfer sumo to a game. if you make it fun you lose realism. are you gonna button mash for palm strikes? when you move left stick but are grabbing the other guy, are you pulling yoir left hand to make him trip or moving to the left?and in this era of le woke keyboard warriors, a game with fat men ONLY is a hard pitch.
Where are you guys watching sumo anyway?
>>740031010datasumo
>>740030298Kek, gets me everytime
>>740031010We get broadcast nhk here.
>>740028305WTF
>>740031010Abema
>>740030986Maybe make it a physics-based, challenge thing like fall guys or whatever it's called? 30s per match, whoever's pushed off or furthest from the center loses, opponents are picked at the start of the session so you don't wait 2 minutes for a 15s match, a couple base skins for the different characters but purchasable ones if you desperately don't want to play as a fat Japanese man.
>>740029904That's like all sports.
>>740029904>what's the fucking point of a "sport" that by design requires you to utterly destroy your body beyond recognitionthat's pretty fucking cool if you ask me
Someone post the one where the guy sidesteps and the other guy falls on his face
>>740028032I mean, it has actually had a bit of a renaissance with Covid and livestreaming, although I wasn't into the sport during the Hawaiian era so I don't know how it compares. That said, I haven't watched the past 5 or 6 basho, and I don't know why. I hear Aonishiki is an ozeki now and Wakatakakage won the most recent basho.>>740029904It's kino.
>>740031010I used to watch Karla, but I think their stream was deleted. Now I either watch through the Abema app with a VPN (through Android emulation) or the Kick stream that has NHK's English commentary, but only when based Murray is on.All of the well-known sumo restreamers fucking suck. MidnightSumo is a fucking faggot and his English commentary adds nothing to the experience. DataSumo is fingerless glove meter tier >>740031114. And then there's, like, some furry faggot and a few smaller streams begging for donations.

>>740028032it's arguable bigger than ever, especially world wide
>>74002990490% of contact sports leave you absolutely fucked for life
Interesting thread
>>740026241How would you even start designing the combat system if you were going for an action game?The old ps1-2 games went for a more simulation approach but it significantly slows everything down and handles more like a tug of war match than anything else.
>>740032989
>>740030965U R ARA
Sumo... is strong...
>>740029904Only a few of them actually have bad physiques with too much fat that clearly destroys their knees/legs. Most of the decent fighters actually have a ton of muscle and slim down pretty well when they retire.
>>740029904I have /fit/faggot fatigue
>>740030771
>>740034516This one was insane, ruined that referee's perfect record I think
>>740034448>That reversalGod damn.
looks like two fat toddlers fighting over who gets to use the ipad
>>740033126>Bigger than everHeh
>>740026241I want a shoot style wrestling game
>>740032447Midnight is one of the single biggest faggots I've ever seen. I don't watch streamers much, but I went through a year of sumo with his streams and actually grew to want to hunt him down irl
>>740028032i watch the NHK highlights most tournaments because they are uploaded the same time i get to work
>>740032283>I hear Aonishiki is an ozeki now and Wakatakakage won the most recent basho.Aonishiki sat out the last basho kadoban, so he got kicked down to sekiwake. Wakatakakage beat out newly recrowned ozeki Kirishima for the win latest basho.
Insane webms, thanks for posting.
Who's the short sumo wrestler who's really fucking jacked, and he always flexes before he starts a match? That guy's cool
>>740035029it seems the clownshow is still in effect
>>740034893He's the pure distillation of Canada and reddit. It's crazy how unlikeable that faggot is.
>Thinking about how there's an entire sport full of Japanese men who are bigger than meSo much for the American dream.
>>740026241You'd love Fight Crab. It's basically that, but with crabs and weapons.https://store.steampowered.com/app/1213750/Fight_Crab/
>>740035185I want to say you're thinking of Asakoryu, although I think the flexing is a more recent development
>>740034858i love the suplex, greatest move ever devised next to the drop kick
>>740026241Ura my GOAT
>>740034893He's a good example of the thing that most pisses me off about a twitch streamer, having most of the commentary be restating rules.
>>740035376Yeah that's him. I appreciate those sumo guys who don't go with the meta and get really fat, but are at a disadvantage as a result.
>>740034858puroresu games are about as dead as sumo ones nowadays, not sure what happened there.
>>740028580You could pioneer super fast rapid fire matchmaking tech where it's finding the next 5 opponents while you play
>>740030720nobody tell this guy the top performing rikishi are all on roids
>>740026241https://youtu.be/W2zAg39AXcs?si=c_ROcDDuTmFh8Bp5
>>740034368Speaking of which it's still crazy to me just how fast Takakeisho lost weight after retirementFour months later and he was a completely unrecognizable, he really was bulking hard during his active days
Anyone have a webm of the Ura suplex from last year? It was kino.
>>740030965No one has the one where he shoots lightning from his hands?
>>740035185Asakoryu probably
>game suffers from power creep
>>740034291S I C K
>>740035861I only just learned that the Japanese were banned from eating meat until like 1890. It's a miracle they could even get as jacked as the second guy on the left.
>>740035380How many doctors DID it take?
>>740035623Proof?
>>740035637I remember hearing that his parents were basically force-feeding him hamburger steak, he never really liked eating.
>>740035380Not sure why this is legal when earthquakes are such a huge problem for Japan.
>>740026241Okay, but what if female sumo game?
>>740030965
>>740037702Only if they wear no more than what the men wear.
>>740030386Of all fighting games VF is the most similar to sumo, hyper aggressive, very short rounds with strict ring outs.
>>740035861What year is is this?
>>7400382632016 (10 years ago)
>>740037702Isn't this like illegal in nipponland?
>>740027893>A stable manager game would be cool though.Only if it's cute anime girls who thought they were signing on to be an idol and instead they're contractually obligated to gain mass and wrestle with other strong-fat sumo girls.>but girls aren't allowed to sumo wrestleAnd I'm not supposed to nut in a coral reef but I've done it.
>>740038496It's not official sumo. On the right there's a fat woman with a RUS belt, probably Russian. In the back there's a woman with a TH-- belt and a Thai flag. The girl in the front is wearing a MGL belt so she's probably Mongolian. It's probably some generic international or women's sumo.
>>740038496There are no regulations on amateur sumo, only professional sumo and that's only because the JSA is considered a public interest corporation which means it has direct oversight by the government itself instead of being a fully private entity. If another professional sumo organization started they could do whatever they wanted since they wouldn't be under the JSA umbrella.Hakuho has pushed women's sumo ever since he got kicked out and not able to use the Kokugikan for his Hakuho Cup anymore, and has also been trying to start an international pro sumo league.
>>740035056How is this even legal?
>>740035568They weren't selling I guess.
>>740034858>>740035568>>740039782the japanese need to return to form and do actual shit in mma again, and not just in the midget weight classes. banish sumo and have those athletes compete to win ufc belts.
>>740040095Banish UFC and bring back Pride and other proper MMA/shoot fighting organizations.
I feel like Tamawashi is going to retire soon and that's sad
>>740026241Not gonna lie, that looks really fun.
>>740028032because it's fucking ridiculous
>>740030965>favorite manga is KajiUra is unfathomably based.
>>740035861You still have plenty of smaller guys like Fujinokawa sitting near the upper end of top division. Granted, none of them will ever stand at the pinnacle.
>>740040095Midget classes are the only ones they have success at nowadays. Maybe Rizin could scrape together a wave of non-child sized jap athletes willing to get beat up by foreigners.
>>740041419Being a small man sucks. It sucks even more that most of the people who could fund fixes don't care because they're mostly big men.
>>740035228the top 2 ranks are full of jobbers.need to clean house and gets some actual wrestlers in there.
>>740037702JAV code?
>>740035637
>>740026241already happenedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLMpT7eA0FE
>Still no competitive karuta game
