Writers' Workshop General Chat Thread

All I remember from the Red/Blue days was having an Alakazam on my team that practically swept the entirety of the Elite 4 single handedly. Might be something worth considering. Keep in mind, Psychic was horribly broken back then.

lmao special stat

Just a reminder that there is about a week left to fill in applications in the Staff Drive. We've had a few people throw their hats into the ring for the Workshop, but I don't want anyone to miss out on the opportunity. If you think you would make a great moderator, make surer you don't miss out!

Man, this makes me nostalgic for 2010 when I entered the staff drive to mod the WW.

........and now six years later I'm doing it again. History repeats itself, indeed. Fingers crossed that Lady Luck is on my side again.

I really need to finish my second playthrough of Wind Waker HD before Friday...

 

[Beth Pavell]

Damn, still haven't had a chance to play that. Fuck you, adult Link, Toon Link is just too cute

 

[Lugion]

It was the first game I bought specifically for my Wii U lol. Loved it sooo much. I'm playing through the version where Link keeps the blue shirt and all the Hylian dialogue is translated.

 

[Misheard Whisper]

I'm really kinda wishing I'd got on the WiiU wagon already. I've been watching Mario Maker videos on YouTube for like six hours now, and that's like ten reasons I want one by itself. Smash, Pokken, Zelda...yeesh.

 

[Treble Tech]

When I get home for spring break I have Twilight Princess HD and my Wolf Link amiibo waiting for me, hehe.

 

[Jersey Jimmy]

Well, it's officially my birthday (on the east coast, anyway)! Maybe now I could finally go to sleep... maybe I lost the motivation to write My Way somewhere in my dreams.

 

[Lord Kyuubi]

Why, hello there, good people! Anyone miss me? ...You, uh, don't need to answer that.

So a while ago my new computer decided it was a worthwhile use of its time to die suddenly. So I had to resurrect my old one which really isn't very good and until recently has more-or-less flat out refused to run Bulbagarden sensibly. So for the zero of you who were wondering where I was, you have your answer. You're out of luck - I'm still very much alive, hehe.

Oh, also I recently seem to have got a trophy called 'Karen's Wisdom' and...

Ahem. So anyway. First of all, happy birthday, Jimmy! Now, what were we talking about before I interrupted?

Oh yeah, Zelda. I'll be another one eagerly awaiting Friday. Anyone else here planning to play Twilight Princess HD with Hero Mode and the Ganondorf Amiibo both in use simultaneously? Call me a masochist, but I think it's a good idea.

 

[Beth Pavell]

I have to say, the design of the Hylian soldiers in Twilight Princess are the best in the franchise. They actually look like soldiers rather than tacky Vegas legionary cosplay

 

[0bs1d1an_kn1ght]

I was thinking about buying a wii-u just for Pokken, Splatoon, and Smash

 

[Tophat Dragoneye]

Can't wait for Pokken either. Though the name was a bit unfortunate in Germany so it was changed to Pokémon Tekken from what I've learned. Try translate Pocken from German to English and you'll see the probable reason.

In other news, there's a new Nintendo Direct tomorrow already, focusing on Spring and Summer releases: 2pm Pacific / 5pm Eastern / 10pm UK / 11pm CET

I'll confess when you first said that, I thought it'd be a lot worse than it was... Still, I see why they wouldn't want a game called that.

One thing I would question is that if Nintendo are doing another Direct already, why not just put the Pokemon announcement in this one? It was pretty short so I don't see why it needed to be a standalone thing like that, and it might have made a good intro anyway. Hmm, not to worry, who am I to complain about more announcements? Personally, what I'm most hoping for is a European release date for Fire Emblem Fates at long last, but I have a suspicion this might not happen still.

 

[LightningTopaz]

Maybe some new Pokemon Sun and Moon info?

 

[Dorothy]

Unlikely if the focus is on spring and summer releases. S&M come out this winter.

 

[LightningTopaz]

That's fair--we'll get new info soon enough

 

[Instrutilus]

"We will be releasing Pokémon Z...now, it's in the shops. Go buy."

DAMN YOU SATURN!

 

[AceTrainer14]

Wouldn't that be great if they actually did a Beyonce and surprised us all with a new game without any warning.

The new Champion is actually just Beyonce
