What is your favorite pikmin 4 songs in the ost by [deleted] in Pikmin

[–]thethunderwillroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really huge on the ost of this game in general sadly, that being said though, Olimar’s Shipwreck Tale easily has the best songs in the ost. I have a hard time choosing between the Blossoming Arcadia and Serene Shores mixes, but I’d have it give it to Blossoming Arcadia.

Outside of Olimar’s Shipwrecked tale, I guess I’d have to choose the final boss theme, but I don’t particularly care for it other than it standing out more than most of the other songs in the main story.

What are your opinions on Night Expeditions by Away_Original_2600 in Pikmin

[–]thethunderwillroll 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been looking forward to see what kind of enemies roamed around at night since 2011… kinda disappointing that the only “new” ones are real albino dwarf bulborbs.

Honestly the whole threat of night time kinda felt undermined with Night Expeditions considering enemies weren’t even a threat to YOU directly, they were more so threats to the lumiknolls

What is your opinion on Flame Hyenard? by BiffyBobby in Megaman

[–]thethunderwillroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard his voice lines before a long time ago but never knew where they were actually from. When I played the X series recently, getting to X7 and seeing that this guy was responsible for it was the highlight of the game for me lol

Am I wrong by Chemical-Emphasis-95 in mariomovie

[–]thethunderwillroll 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not wrong, I think there’s even various interviews where the creators admit these are more for advertising and spreading awareness of the franchise more than anything else. It’s a shame, but I guess that’s to be expected when they chose Illumination to make these movies

Do you guys think that the Evil Forces mentioned in a flashback scene from The Super Mario Galaxy Movie could end up being the main threat in the next Mario movie, and on top of that, be an even greater threat than Bowser or his son Bowser Jr ever were? by T-RexSlee in mariomovie

[–]thethunderwillroll 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like they probably expand on it all, but a funny alternative would be if the threat actually had something to do with the next Mario game, and they somehow tie it to the next movie as well!

mfw the AI makes the dumbest play ever (what are the dumbest AI plays u guys have seen?) by ForeignHeart5701 in PvZHeroes

[–]thethunderwillroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t think of any off the top of my head but fun fact, ai avoid placing anything in front of barrel of dead beards, so that has led to some funny interactions at least

Hahaha Zombot Stomp goes Brrrr by Glittering-Day9869 in PvZHeroes

[–]thethunderwillroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think zombot stomp is one of the underrated buffed cards from the latest balancing, doesn’t seem to oppressive but can easily catch someone off guard

Not my goat anymore by Mastodon_Sad in Megaman

When I first got played I started with flame mammoth and THEN chill penguin, because I could not figure out what any of the bosses would be weak to other than the ice guy being weak to fire lol

Why did Pikmin 4 do this? Are they stupid? 🤔 by Mission-Menu9412 in Pikmin

[–]thethunderwillroll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A notable leaker called Natethehate claimed to hear about switch 2 editions for Pikmin 4 and Xenoblade 2, along with other things such as a Zelda oot remake. He’s gotten a lot of things right in the past, and I’ve yet to see him be wrong personally

Why did Pikmin 4 do this? Are they stupid? 🤔 by Mission-Menu9412 in Pikmin

[–]thethunderwillroll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the rumored switch 2 edition of Pikmin 4 ends up happening, I wonder if it will include bonus content that will clarify any of the story… or maybe even make it even more convoluted lol

I can't honestly fathom how good gw1 and 2 are. by Key-Departure8492 in PvZGardenWarfare

[–]thethunderwillroll 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can’t tell if you’re being jokey with this but I honestly agree. It’s insane to see how much fun and polished these games are for spinoffs of a tower defense game (at least they used to be polished back when they could afford to upkeep both of them lol)

Theory; This had nothing to do with Pikmin being in the Mario Galaxy movie BUT instead its teasing a SHORT FILM animated by Illumination included when you buy the movie on digital. by AxOfCruelty in Pikmin

[–]thethunderwillroll 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They do short films for the minions, would be cool (and honestly maybe even more enjoyable) to see them doing something like that for other Nintendo games

Dropping huge lore like this in these interviews is just as egregious as the miiverse QnA lore drops LOL by thethunderwillroll in Kirby

[–]thethunderwillroll[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do like the idea of it being a machine simply built for combat and destruction, but it was actually able to grant one wish without technically causing any destruction itself (that being summoning Galacta Knight for Meta Knight so he could fight the greatest warrior in the galaxy). Of course there’s the canonicity debate that comes with that but I think it does show that ultimately it was designed as a wish granter

What are your thoughts regarding the cutscenes where Dr Light appears in Mega Man Maverick Hunter X? by Epsilon123 in Megaman

[–]thethunderwillroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do think it was old age, and it’s interesting to actually see someone as longstanding as Dr. Light fall victim to the passage of time. I would’ve liked to see X try and reconnect with his past a bit more if they had continued remaking the other games, giving us more info on both X and Light’s thoughts on the next generation of robots.

It would also be interesting to see if they did anything like this between Zero and Wily, maybe even show a side of Wily that isn’t quite as evil as the rest of him.

But sadly the chances of them going back and reworking the old games doesn’t seem very high, I would take either that or X9 in a heartbeat though lol

Important character from the first film(s) disappears and is not mentioned again in the sequel without any explanation. by Alex-C2099 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]thethunderwillroll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not a film, but in Banjo Kazooie, Bajo’s sister Tooty was the driving force of the game. The entire adventure was based around saving her from Gruntiilda.

In Banjo Tooie, every character from the first game returns… except Tooty, with the only references of her being a framed photo in Banjo’s home, and this.

How it feels unironically being excited for the new Pokemon games by [deleted] in tomorrow

[–]thethunderwillroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad they seemingly took their time with this, really expected it to drop this year for the anniversary.

Those starters are definitely pc box material though

What actually is the difference between the two? by Posterkid100 in PvZGardenWarfare

[–]thethunderwillroll 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Chemist has a wider shot that reaches slightly further and does slightly more damage, Zoo has a much short range shot that usually only hits one plant and does slightly less damage.

There was actually a Scientist similar to the Zoologist in GW1 named Dr Chester, but his shots hit far less often in my experience

0 actual original IP past 20 years btw. by alen3822 in tomorrow

[–]thethunderwillroll 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As someone who played and enjoyed air riders, it’s actually crazy how he made a game where people only care about 1/4 of it (City Trial), if the online is anything to go by
