dios mio....
May as well repost my prince fluff art, really hope september has a kirby announcement
>>578596630Oh shit, it's OC? Nice job!
lord help us.
/vg/ is just too damned quick.
seriously it never used to be this fast.
>>578604061>>578607537Has anything new happened to speed it up?
>>578594283actual previous thread >>577649660
>>578607584well /v/ going to shit and alot more generals existing tends to make it fast plus drawthreads got moved to /vg/ for whatever reason.
>>578610641Huh, so that's why I haven't seen drawthreads in a while. Wonder what happened there. If it was the mods that did it then I have to wonder why they don't do anything about any of the other pseudogenerals in /v/.
>>57861118010+ GTA leak threads are fine but god forbid /v/ have a drawthread.
>>578618426you can actually block his rain attack in all games with parasol, give it a try.
/vg/ do be rip roaring atm.
Why does it feel like this fanbase really died down after Air Riders came out?
>>578629260depends on who you ask.
>>578629260Not really
>>578629260Sakurai making a game while promising no future of that game from the beginning causes burnout
>>578636648Air Ride on GCN didn't have any updates and people never got burnt out on it. What makes Air Riders different? Besides the fact that they have the infrastructure to fix any faults or oversights with new content which is industry standard now.
>>578641301That can't be right, there must have been complaints about how absurdly shallow the game was even back then. I know that was a peeve I developed growing up with the game.
>>578629260Air Riders deflated a significant amount of Kirby's momentum when it released. It being the latest Kirby game for this long has been causing much more damage to the franchise than usual.
>>578610641no clue why they dont push a lot of the generals to their specially made boards. its not like they get used for anything>>578641301attention is divided between a thousand addicting and demanding things these days. why play air riders for fun when i could grind out my battle pass chores. besides how many people who talk about how amazing their childhood games were go back and actually play them?
bumpgeesh this place really IS faster than usual
>>578648240>no clue why they dont push a lot of the generals to their specially made boards. its not like they get used for anythingNo, anon, don't you understand? It's very important that /vmg/ doesn't get most of /vg/'s threads kicked to it, so that its own board culture can thrive!Sure, threads take a month to drop of the board, and most of the board activity is the gacha drama general, but it's just part of their culture!
duuuurr
>>578641301>Air Ride on GCN didn't have any updates and people never got burnt out on it. What makes Air Riders different?The times. It was normal back then. He could have just kept his mouth shut, and most people would at least stayed hopeful and discuss, instead of shutting down all discussion so early and now everyone memes that he's in the mines again.
the duskbloods test made me want to get back into city trial
>>578642568The Switch 2 is way less popular than the Switch, also no Adeleine kept a lot of fans from getting it.
>>578678534it's doing pretty well but with the prices being fucked on everything atm it's made quite a few people hold off.
>>578656371we really need a video game/internet culture board.
>>578648240The mods don't care, and the generals either don't know or don't care that generals are allowed on those splinter boards. If it's the latter, it's usually because they want the benefits of /vg/: higher post and image limits.I've actually seen some of the slower /vg/ generals jump ship to the splinter boards because of the gacha menace, and they've been better off for it. Unfortunately, we don't really qualify for such a move.
>>578684791at best we could try going back to /v/ threads but it's such a fucking cess pit these days that it wouldn't be viable.
>>578684791Yeah I thought Dwarf Fortress General was dead but it turned out they just moved to /vst/.
>>578686189guess we need a Kirby RTS or something.
>>578683060That would require having Hiro or a single mod actually think or care about the average user of 4chan, and considering moot stopped giving a shit years before he left, that's a tall order.The fact that the /v/alkans even exist, instead of anything people actually wanted, should tell you everything. They don't know what anons want, and they don't care that they don't know.
>>578685756>kirby threads on /v/ when there's no recent kirby gamesEven before /kdg/ existed, that was almost impossible, and half of them would just get buried in shitposting immediately.
>>578686949yeah it's kinda a shit situation no matter how you slice it.>>578687170that's true, especially now, a /v/ thread would just be full of vindictive spamming.
/v/ gets a bunch of generals on the regular anyway, they're just not called generals.Fucking Zelda Girls threads every day of the week, what the fuck they don't even talk about games.
>>578690994>Fucking Zelda Girls threads every day of the week, what the fuck they don't even talk about games.i haven't been paying much attention, are the fairy threads still a thing?
>>578691384I stopped going when that one guy started using them to shill his poking game nonstop.But they were at least ONCE a week.
>>578691384yeah fairy threads still happen all the time.
FAIRY SEX
>>578697339Go to horny jail.
>>578697461>lock someone up into horny jail>doesn't work because they are into being locked updevilish
this man is a menace to us.
Kirbump
i just get so kirby
>>578711813What a fucking narcissist.
>>578713126What if it was unsold inventory
CAWFEEE
AUGH
>>578717681That's going to be hard to wash out...
eepy.
real men only cry when their robot cries.
he has alot of appeal.
...hello?
am I going to have to talk to myself to keep the thread alive?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exjvchuF_FA
did everyone died?
>>578734457I’m still here
i wanted to write something last night but pássed out
For a game character also voiced by Kirby's voice actress, Makiko Ohomoto, Rick doesn't really appear that often in the anime.
Bump
too fast...
What would you like to specifically see out of the next 3d Kirby game?
>>578763828Part of me hopes they take Morpho Sword as the baseline for ability movesets, I get the impression they wanted to keep stuff simple due to being the first proper 3D mainline game in FL, but Morpho feels pretty intuitive to use even with some of the more complicated inputs, could help bring over abilities like Fighter or Beam while making them distinct from abilities they might overlap with if they kept FL's controls
>barely an hour and already at page 10seriously why the hell is /vg/ moving so fast? usually it takes like 3 hours for this to happen, no?
>>578764554The evolution of 3d Kirby so far is reminding me of sakurai’s original trilogy so I can see that happening, makes me wonder if the next game will also use the subgame format
>>578730376been there
>>578773332I do wonder if sakurai would ever try to do 3D smash bros or if such a concept could even work.
>>578790313fairy.
>>578763828King Dedede sex.
>>>/co/155181563Alright, which one of you was this?
>>578811415link is ded.
New kirby gamecube footage leaked https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NxuPlmKTpk0&pp=iggUQAFKEDNuZ3NmZm9mZmxOUHR1RlM%3D
>>578817037seems legit.
>>578815228>link is ded.then who's gonna save zelda??
>>578752165>spells “passed” with an áWhat are you, French? No wonder you’re such a jobber.Now get back to work, or you’re going back in the jar, FectoOTHLESS ElifisTED!
>>578825372Well now that is simply rude, do you not think?
>>578820873I know a guy.
>>578763828Less narrow levels, deeper ability movesets, overhauled flying system, underwater gameplay, playable Gooey, Bandana Dee boss fight, Adeleine relevance.
>>578830241>overhauled flying systemHow so? The flight height ceiling ala 64 seems like a resonable compromise for 3D design, how'd (You) change it?
>>578830813Instead of flying infinitely up to a set height from the point of origin, I'd make it so Kirby can ascend from the point of origin for around seven seconds before Kirby starts to slowly descend, then a few more seconds before he falls. But, the height and distance he can travel in one stretch is dependant on how quickly the player can mash the jump button. So basically, just like 64, but 3D. That should be established first, then the scale of levels, heights of obstacles, and distances between platforms and obstacles can be designed with that in mind.
>>578832000it's really interesting that Kirby clash of all things brought back that mechanic randomly.
>>578711813must be morbid having your face plastered on everything
>>578845434Not for Magolor, it isn't.
maybe we should write a letter to Hal one word at a time again.DEAR

man noir dedede is fucken lame
>>578900286How so? Design-wise he's pretty sick, even if aggressively chuuni. Special is kinda ass for City Trial though
>>578900286he stole dedede's whole flow.
>>578904393>this is the perfect physique according to several different cosmic horrors from all corners of the universe
>>578904563to be fair he's one of the only people to have fought Kirby and lived to tell the tale.
Will we ever get another curse game
>>578912692Surely the mouse mode will enable it, right? Could even use it as inspiration and make the designated companion character for it a rodent (even if the series DOES have a good amount of them already...)
>>578912692a port maybe
whens the next event
>>578904563>Being a fat fuck is peak conditionNo wonder Meta Knight has so many fangirls.

Posting whatever thing to keep this general alive
>>578938201Life (and /vg/) moves too fast nowadays...
>>578939082It's the fastest board on the whole site...it's crazy.
>>578939416we need like, a /vg2/ or something.

cheesed to meet you.

Wow it's been a year since SCW released
>>578954840How did the asshole that got inbetween this thing and zorah do it
>>578961048>Never leaves you in the dustChinchilla deconfirmed...
It makes me angry how smashfsgs consider air riders an obstacle to smash 6
>>578995708If anything is an obstacle to Smash 6, it's Sakurai.
>>578995708multiple things can be in development at the same time, it's rare for game devs to work on single projects.
>>578961159>>578992431https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtqOLVUptiw
>>578982294time is ever the cruel mistress.
juh.
>>578995708Can they at least green light an Uprising port before going back to Smash grind
>>579021028a port wouldn't really need a director unless they added some new content since most of the work would've been done....surely they'd have options for twin stick and mouse controls if it ever did happen.
netflix presents kirby vi a special look
>>579026583imagine paying for a subscription just to watch a fucking advertisement.
>>579027058Wait did people actually sign up for Netflix just to watch the preview
>>579027214oh yes they did and they actively bragged about it, genuinely pathetic cattle behavior.
>>579027297Surely they're just making use of a free trial, right?Right?
>>579027626nope, there really is a sucker born every minute, I really despise this industry.
>>579028065Goddamn.
>>579029387yeah it do be a->"the item boxes started bouncing!"moment.
>>579021595>humans gone entirely, probably dead>nature has reclaimed almost all infrastructure>plenty of cute animals that are also the dominant speciesViridi would love the New World. I wonder if she'd have a taste for Neichel's work though, with her probably also being human. Too bad about the occassional alien interventions
>>579034409>humans gone entirely, probably deadAdeleine exists.
>>579036274Kill. A human making drawings come to life isn't natural
>>579041064>t. Viridi. Now I'm starting to wonder if she's another goddamn self-insert.
>>579041487How the fuck do you come to this conclusion
>>579041064Sorry, Kirby won't let you hurt his friend.
>>579043526NTA but she IS voiced by Makiko in JP
>>579045412it's interesting in smash she seems to like Kirby despite him fighting nature.
>>579046464Well, he IS very cute.
>>579046768that and he also saves nature from threats, plus he has killed evil gods and angels.
>>579046464Still fucks me up that in Ultimate, the game with Echo Fighters and EVERYONE IS HERE, they didn't add Viridi and Medusa as echoes of Palutena with the custom moves she shed in the transition from 4. It would have been such an easy win AND it would have been pandering to Sakurai's interests.I guess he was hyperfixated on getting all the Squenix and shitty fighting game characters he could instead.
>>579047672hey let's not hate on tekken or fatal fury...anyhow, if she was put in people would've complained about bias again.
gamer Kirb bath water.
>>579052529I drank it.
>>579046464i dont think much thought was put in beyond what would be funny.shes happy that humans are extinct in the splatoon world even though inklings are just humans again>>579047672even though she fills the same role as Palutena in KIU, i feel she is distinct enough that a echo fighter wouldn’t work as well. same with Medusa
>>579047672Viridi is too short to be an echo.
>>579052550didn't someone get sick from actually drinking that or was that just a meme?
WWWWWWHAAAAAAAT!?????
>>579046464>fighting natureKirby spitting and swallowing others is natural I guess. But at the most, Sectonia tried to use a plant to siphon Popstar's energy, that's too much even for her standards
>>579053862I wonder if the omnitrix could make him into a Kirbo...probably not. wasn't his uncle voiced by the colonel from metal gear solid?
>>579054138I was more talking about fighting wispy woods.

>>579134678I think discussion will pick up a bit once it gets announced but if no Kirbo in then well back to the despair mines for us.

>>579072542Nintendo Music releases feel very inconsistent. Sometimes they'll release to match with anniversaries but FE3H didn't release on August
dawg no hat for this event fr????????
dawg are we for realsies????

>>579164485There are many revolting things in this image, chief among them being the fingers
>>579047672Anon I like the game too but put on the brakes a bit lol. We do have as many characters as there are games
>>579170092>We do have as many characters as there are games>pittoo is the Of Myths and Monsters of the rosteri can see it.
>>579164742yaoi hands.
>>579186664Where does this come from
was playin air riders last nite bc of the event and yep games still goated
it's magolor day eve
He did very well in Air Riders today, so i gave him a apple and cherry I'm kidding, he gets fruit everyday
>>579196709there's a stamp collection that's existed for a few years now both in English and Japanese.

Like or dislike the anime's depiction of Dedede?

>>579313265the trick is to draw slow.
>>579340439i know the dev and hate them for making a fishing game and turning a normal kirby game into something speedrunner-focusedgimme a 2.5d kirby game like rtdldx or ksa
>>579346698speed running has it's place but yeah it shouldn't be the focus when games add speed/time challenges they are always obnoxious
>>579346698I think you’re confusing the eternal paradise dev for the gamble galaxy stories dev
>>579347592i was, i remember now.but both games still look like something out of ms paintthere was this one 2.5d kirby fangame back in 2008 that i saw on the rainbow resort website that had original abilities like ring that let you roll around like sonic, or quake that re-did plasma's mash-charge into an AoE like spark in squeak squadsomething like dark matter returns i think its name was
>>579348427found itit was Kirby: Cosmic Chaos
>>579348731yeah that one never got finished/released.
>>579329082Meta Knight should be dominant so that you can make him submissive.
>>579348731Fun fact: bandana dee was going to be in it but use the all new mechanic ability instead of spear https://www.deviantart.com/minon/art/Kirby-Mechanic-Dee-182818124
>>579351059why did they make king dedede gross and ugly looking?
>>579348427>>579348731https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jhSjYakYGyA&pp=ygUSa2lyYnkgY29zbWljIGNoYW9z It seems like there was a demo for it at one point, I wonder if it’s editable and someone could use it to revive the game
>>579348731Gravity Kirby giving Klonoa vibes.
>>579348731needs proper lighting but it still looks awesome
