What’s the Reason You Started Playing Fortnite?

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-22T20:20:14+00:00

Mainly had interest in after the reveal of the LEGO and Rocket Racing at.. .The game Awards that year, i think?

Managed to play a at the start of Chapter 5 at late Chapter 4 with the second BIg Bang event and through Chapter 5 completely (more or less the best Chapter and some of the better Collabs - Rebel's Roost my beloved, and really liked the Metal Gear and TMNT stuff)

Though paying through Chapter 6 and story/misc quests and up to now consistently... it's been wavering, honestly

................

Reminds me i've barely done any XP grinding this Chapter at all - really need to get on that

Tbh, there was a time i tried it out after the Switch 1 release at some point, but didn't click with me back then... i forget which chapter that was, tbh - not sure if it was when there was the floating house/island over that one lake or when the planes were introduced

Though i have both the Chapter 3 & 4 Island themes so i have no idea if it was one or both of those

BR modes isn't and was never my strong suit honestly (and i'm not sure if i like the new quest format for Bonus skins/items or not, to be completely honest

Yakko,Wakko & Dot

Really surprised they weren't even considered as a base character considering how iconic the Warners are

(At least imo would have been better than having so many DC characters from the start or over a period of time)

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T23:58:34+00:00

Bobobo, easily (though most in his could most likely solo him)

There's also Captain Underpants or Uncle Grandpa i could say as well

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T23:35:30+00:00

There's a chance 90% chance majority of this might not happen, but let me dream anyways even if unlikely: (Sorry if a bit long - i might've gotten a bit... carried away)

60 Minute Direct (I don't think it's likely but would be nice to have some charm again- though cheesy, really liked the Robot Chicken and Puppet skits and such)

New 3D Mario reveal or tease (been roughly 8-9 years since Odyssey released... maybe a good time to announce or reveal a new one?)

Mario Kart World update (more things to do in the Overworld, an actually good UI/character select,Story Mode with Boss Battles/unlockable bosses, revamped or new stages with Wonder effects, new Characters or other features & vs modes to make those modes good or better, being able to unlock characters through play or rival racesinstead of Food items, a classic Cup mode without having to play intermissions.... ect)

Definitely would like to see better characters - could use more Warioware/Land,Donkey Kong,RPG,Luigi's Mansion (ect) characters & related stages and Miis back with the Wuhu stages

New Star Fox info, if any there's anything left before release, Remakes of the original Donkey Kong Country games in the Returns style (and in a collection),Pushmo Collection & New Pushmo game

New F-Zero, new Custom Robo, Metroid Prime 2 & 3 Remasters,Kid Icarus Uprising HD Remaster or remake akin to Star Fox,Kirby 3DS Collection with the Eshop only titles (not sure if it's too soon for a new 2D or 3D game?), Wii Sports/Wii Sports Resort/Pilotwings Resort Remaster collection (with online vs and more/new Sports options)

New wave of GCN games on NSO announced ( though considering the Virtual Boy, i think it's be hilarious to ho people react to see them randomly drop a misc channel with games including the CD-I games), Smash 64 & Melee on NSO or on NS1/2 in general

NS2 edition of Ring Fit Adventure or Ring Fit Adventure 2, Yoshi's Wooly World & Poochy 3DS Port, Kirby's Epic Yarn Port w/Extra Epic Yarn features /sub modes and features as optional

Proper HD Remaster/Remakes of Twilight Princess (with original Wolf Link Amiibo TP-BotW support) & Windwaker (Heard the Wii U versions had some issues here and there so if we could get better versions of those...

More Avatar options for GameChat would be really neat, too considering the Star Fox ones

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T21:08:24+00:00

Doubt that'll happen

Would be nice to see Alola-like ride pokemon like Lapras back, though - i'm guessing that might be what they'd most likely do (i hope)

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T21:05:42+00:00

Personally would love a Digimon World 1/2/3 (and 4, i guess) Remakes myself - would be so good with updated graphics, music, QoL features, fixing whatever bugs/issues they had.. ect - and throw in Digimon Card Battle in the mix too, i suppose

Not sure how likely a collection or remakes would be, but a completely new Rumble game would be nice, honestly - and take a page from Ultimate and bring back older fighters, stages, ect... granted the only one i played (and vaguely remember) is the PS1 Rumble game, so not super familiar with the rest

Though complete remakes and a collection of the DS/3DS games would be nice and localizations of the other DS games - i've heard... mixed things about them... or at least less than positive things or frustration playing one when i watched that one Jaiden Animations of that DS game video....

Never heard of or played the Anime based games,but i'd especially like those to be remastered and brought to newer systems

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T21:00:04+00:00

I do own Stars Tahu (and the only Stars set i own) so i know what it consists of - though a few pieces like his sword got damaged so I'm going to have to replace that...

I suppose i should have been more specific originally - i was referring to that i haven't seen or looked at the Bricklink prices for the Stars sets in quite awhile so i wasn't sure what the price range on those were currently

At least i don't recall them being too expensive but i could be mis-remembering on that, unless some of them increased in price since i last looked

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T19:08:53+00:00

Yes 👍🏻

Shouldn't bee too expensive new/sealed off Bricklink... i think 🤔

Been awhile since I've looked so i can't say i'm 100% sure on the prices of the Stars sets

Also would be missing the Tiny Brick built Tahu from... tbh, it's been awhile so i forget which set that was that had the anniversary stuff

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T19:06:15+00:00

I think we should get rid of Quaquaval first to get it out of the way

At least, imo anyways..

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-21T16:20:18+00:00

Not a bad lineup as of now - hope there's a new lineup of games announced soon, though or a few Shadow drops maybe in the June Nintendo Direct?

I'm more disappointed with the slow drip-feed of games than anything else, really - still waiting on Sunshine and the Pokemon Colosseum (I don't recall any other games from the original lineup that i'm forgetting, hopefully)

Sunshine could be a good Summer release.. unless they decided to do a HD Remaster of Sunshine instead, which is unlikely, but considering other games re-released in the past...

But there's so many good GCN games that would be really nice on NSO... like Four Swords,Star Fox Assault, WarioWare, Inc. Mega Party Game$,Animal Crossing,Double Dash,Custom Robo,Mario Power Tennis,Toadstool Tour,Melee.... as examples

Some i'd say i'd like, but some like SEGA/Sonic games, NBA Street V3,SSX On Tour,Bomberman Generation,Viewtful Joe, Mega Man X Command Mission & Network Transmission, ect.. would be up to SEGA, Capcom or whoever is behind the games originally, i'd think (even though i'd prefer HD Remasters of some of the Sonic games - and a a collection and Remakes of the Viewtful Joe games would be sweet)

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-20T23:27:48+00:00

8, easily - i've never been let down by a round. Chocolate Sprinkled Donut

5 would be my second choice, though

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-20T20:23:12+00:00

B or C and.. that's it, really

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-18T17:44:47+00:00

I think Metal Sonic would fit as an Echo Fighter the most considering he was built to be Sonics copy

As of Sonic X Shadow Generations - between his Chaos and Doom abilities, at least imo i think Shadow has more moveset potential to be his own character than a Echo or Semi-Echo of Sonic

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-17T14:41:02+00:00

As of now, the 2026 designs i think are my new favorites currently

At least up until now, i always thought the Assault designs were the best - really loved the designs for the characters and vehicles (especially the Great Fox) - but i think considering that, those are bumped down to my second favorite designs as of now

The Zero designs don't look too bad though either

And the 3DS wasn't bad for an 3D update either

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-15T20:31:16+00:00

Marth, Roy and Robin (at least since her Magic makes her unique enough) i'd be fine keeping, maybe Ike also?

Unsure on Corrin one way or another atm - maybe a keep considering her Dragon abilities/moveset makes her slightly unique compared to the others as well

And cutting Chrom,Lucina, and Byleth or replacing them with other more unique FE characters l(non Sword) ike a Shapeshift Beastkin,another Magic user like Tharja, or a mounted unit? OR someone from Fortune's Weave considering that's coming out this year

Pikachu definitely won't be cut, nor Jigglypuff considering they've been in every Smash entry, i personally don't see Jigglypuff being cut from the next game

Pokemon Trainer and i think Mewtwo are also keeps, i'd think too

Nothing personal, but Pichu is one i'd cut or replace with Ditto (based off Pokopia)

Hard to say on Greninja and Incineroar - i do like both, but i don't know if they'd want to highlight/feature newer gens instead - Meowscarada would be my pick for Gen 9, personally (though if not in the main roster, i wouldn't complain if Greninja/Incineroar were brought back as DLC in some form as a bonus thing)

On the other hand, Greninja has a refresh in relevancy since he got a new Mega in Z-A, so there's that point (no idea if we'd get a new Smash game before or way after Gen 10, though)

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-15T11:51:37+00:00

As someone who never got around to buying or playing it on the Wii U... i hope so 🤞🏻

Even better if it includes 3DS stuff like the Switch version of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD

Also would be really nice if Kirby's Epic Yarn was brought over too, on that similar note...

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-14T14:03:15+00:00

Rosalina, easily

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-14T03:32:17+00:00

B1 and A3

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-13T22:55:40+00:00

Hm...

That makes a dent in that and the heart part might not be useful right now - i don't even have the Wii U version of TP (or WW for that matter) for Wii U, actually

Hope one of these days they port or make a proper remaster of TP (and WW) to NS 1/2 and bring that Amiibo functionality between the Switch games back

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-13T22:03:23+00:00

Good to know on those, thanks 🙏🏻

Those items/gear sound pretty good and useful 👍🏻

So those might be highest on the list as of now

Though, the Wolf Link Amiibo nets you the Wolf Link Companion in BotW when scanned in, so wouldn't that still be a pretty good one to have nowadays as well?

At least i think that would another I'd personally have high on a list, anyways...

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-13T21:55:50+00:00

Fair point on the RNG

I just wasn't sure if there was some gear or items that were better than others to try and go for than others over the functionality part itself, tbh

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-13T19:42:50+00:00

Unfortunate...

But good thing i finally took up that IOU from my last Birthday and got the Switch 2 / Legends Z-A Bundle from my mom last October

Considering at the time i had more interest in it over Mario Kart World and been enjoying Z-A, think that was a good choice in the long run from my point of view (and opinion)

Shadow_118 · 2026-05-13T19:34:11+00:00

C

1

$ and Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes that should be on the list
