Two tiny characters confirmed for the new Smash Brothers

                So we got a couple of new confirmations about the upcoming smash brothers games. The first being the return of Diddy Kong. In a new picture revealed on the Super Smash Brothers webpage we finally see Diddy in action. This little speedy character certainly added his own brand of chaos to the super smash brothers roster in brawl and he’s come back for more. Looks like he’ll also have a lot of the same moves so for those who liked using this character things are looking good.

The second character is a bit more surprising. Little Mac from the lesser known Nintendo game “Punch Out” makes his way to the roster. Like Wii Fit Trainer, and Villager many fans are a little uncertain about using lesser known characters for the fighting game, but after seeing him in action it looks like a good choice. Little Mac is very quick and powerful on the ground, able to execute several powerful attacks with ease. He has a variety of punches and a knock out meter that powers up during battle that can execute a powerful attack when full; however, he is weak in the air so he is a character to keep on his feet which is understandable since he is a boxer. This tiny character is sure to prove that big things come in small packages.

Editors note: Due to new software adjustments sometimes the commentary will fade out..apologies in advance and this will only last in the first two parts.

On this Let’s Play Samuel and Jacob finally play on a console with the iconic Legend of Zelda Windwaker as they discover the legend of Hyrule is Scottish, wonder why all versions of Link take naps, see a ladder that’s way to tall, a very complicated pig chase, wonder why a kid can’t blow his nose, see why Samuel loves Links grandmother, the long tutorials of Zelda games, and take care of a bratty pirate.

Finally Concrete news on Watch Dogs for Wii U

Wii U Watch Dogs

Finally some concrete news on Watch Dogs

                With all the news on Watch Dogs from rumors, to exaggerations, to cancellations, and delays it’s really hard to put much stock on news about this title. For those who don’t know we’ve already had a rumor of the game being canceled on the Wii U which turned out to be just a computer glitch that everyone over reacted to. Then we had the controversy about the trademark being dropped but that turned out to be done by hackers and that turned out to be another bit of misinformation.

Here’s the real news. Watch Dogs will come to Wii U sometime after April 1st this year.  That’s concrete and that is Ubisoft’s current plan which came from Ubisoft themselves so we can say for sure this is the actual news about the game.  For those who plan to get the game for the Wii U just sit back, relax, and better not look up Watch Dogs on google because with all these misinformation articles up and about it’s really hard keep up with what’s going on. Rejoice in the fact that it is coming to Wii U and rest easy because that’s not going to change.

Assassin’s Creed Board Game

 

Assassin’s Creed has made their way to the table top games as they plan on releasing Assassin’s Creed: Arena on the 26th of this month.  Ubisoft has partnered up with Cryptozoic Entertainment, makers of the Walking Dead Board game, in order to bring this game to life.

While we haven’t seen this game in action one thing is clear, there are a lot of rules as can be seen with the huge rule book in the picture above Ubisoft had this to say. “It’s very high-risk, high-reward and has a lot of rules.”

The game is a strategy game where players try to get the most points by taking out other players, targets, and avoiding guards.  There are action cards, event cards, tokens, a dice, and it plays up to four players. For those who are a fan of Assassin’s Creed and board games this looks like a must have and you can preorder it here. https://store.cryptozoic.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=ASSASSINSCREEDARENA_GAME

The game is $50 and will be available February 26th.

J.K Rowling regrets her relationships in Harry Potter

J.K Rowling regrets pairing Ron with Hermione

J.K Rowling, writer of the Harry Potter series, has had a lot of success with her books, and the movies that came from them; however, in a recent interview she explains that her original plan to pair Ron with Hermione as “a form of Wish fulfillment.” Instead of pairing her up with Harry.

She had this to say. “I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment. That’s how it was conceived, really. For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.”

“I know, I’m sorry, I can hear the rage and fury it might cause some fans, but if I’m absolutely honest, distance has given me perspective on that. It was a choice I made for very personal reasons, not for reasons of credibility. Am I breaking people’s hearts by saying this? I hope not.”

 

When it comes to romance it’s hard to make everyone happy because fans are divided as to who Hermione should be with in the end, but with the series already concluded for several years it’s hardly worth putting much thought into. The story is over, and the characters are nothing more than fond memories to most fans. How about we keep it as that.

Stan Lee wants more heroes in S.H.I.E.L.D.

Stan Lee wants more heroes in S.H.I.E.L.D.

With recent news that Lady Sif from the Thor movies will appear in an episode of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the fact that Mike Peterson will become the well known Marvel Villain Dethlok it’s clear that the show is starting to dive more into the Marvel universe than originally expected.

While the show focuses on Agent Coulson and his band of agents, Marvel fans are rewarded with a series of Easter eggs towards well known Marvel characters.  Some fans had a difficult time watching the show because it revolved around an original cast of characters relatively new to the Marvel universe, where they hoped it would also include some of their old favorites. Now that we are starting to dive into some of the more well known characters it could increase the show’s popularity.

Stan Lee had this to say about the show. “I just feel that we also need more colorful characters to be popping up all the time.” When he found out about the appearances of Lady Sif and Deathlok Stan Lee replied. “That will be great. I think that’s what the show needs,” he explained. “I think people will tune in to see those characters and will enjoy seeing them in the context of being with normal people on a normal mission.”
