No.

This looks like pc indie shit.
In fact if it was, no one would even make threads about it. I appreciate Nintendo trying out new things and it worked very well with Splatoon but this thing looks unappealing at best.

How is 9th place pathetic in any way? It's only going to go up as more info comes out. It's a new IP that might hit top 5. That's utterly amazing

I was wondering when someone would start the new thread! Are we expecting 10-11 to be the new time for images?

>>375971185
You wouldn't find something like this there though.

I don't know why you guys try so hard to belittle a game that clearly has a lot of heart and creativity put into it. As consumers, shouldn't you hope that a game is as good as it can be, rather than being pessimistic and praying for the worst?

>>375971534
It's been that way for the last few days. Maybe they realized that a bunch of westerners follow the twitter

>>375971229
Mechanica's alts, followed by a look at a new stage that may or may not belong to one of the 3 remaining characters they haven't shown off yet.

Whether I'll get ARMS depends on how much single player content there is. I'm sure the multi-player will be fun but that's not enough for me by itself. If the single player sucks I'll wait till it's $20, but that will never happen because Nintendo.

I'm just telling you what this game makes me feel, I'm not here hoping it fails and I'm not into the Schadenfreude trip 90% of this board is on, it's just that it's really just the boxing game on Wii Sports with better mechanics and fancy characters. Nintendo can do much better than that.
I don't get why anyone would be hyped for this.

>>375972173
>it's just that it's really just the boxing game on Wii Sports

It's not even the same genre

>>375972173
The only reason people draw the Wii Boxing compariso is becaus the reveal trailer Showcased motion controls and tookplace right after12 Switch

>I’m assuming that these prototypes are created to test very basic gameplay concepts. So, what kind of concept did Arms originate as? I would imagine it started as a boxing game where the characters’ arms would stretch out…

No, it was not originally a concept for a boxing game. There are many fighting games, like Street Fighter or Super Smash Bros., or even “3D fighters” like Tekken, where the game is viewed side-on. Since the beginning of fighting games, the side view has been the mainstream, but I’ve always thought, why couldn’t we do it a little differently? However, it can be difficult to gauge depth in games where the camera is behind you. So I was absolutely convinced that it would not be suited for fighting games, which require precise distance control. But the fact that your arms extend, and that it takes a bit of time for them to impact, makes it quite likely your attacks will succeed. My idea was to have the game’s tactics revolve less around whether your attack would hit or not, and more around the timing and delay between your attacks connecting. So in pursuing a new kind of fighting game where the camera is behind you and your arms extend, Arms was born.

>Honestly speaking, when I first saw the game, I thought it would be like the boxing in Wii Sports, where you’re engaging in very exaggerated punching motions. But, even though you can play Arms like that, if you become skilled enough, you can also evade your opponent’s attacks perfectly, and predict their movements to land your own attacks. So if you put some effort into playing, you’ll be able to enjoy that sort of strategical gameplay.

We had no reason to create another Wii Sports. As someone who worked on Mario Kart, I’m always coming up with ideas to spice up the gameplay by adding unrealistic movements and gimmicks.

Why is Arms getting so much attention but so few people cared about Pokken?

Pokken actually sold well and still has an active online and competitive scene, but in terms of buzz and internet presence, Pokken did horribly and ARMs has already surpassed it despite it not even having come out yet

>>375975205
You do realize Pokken had hype when it was coming out right?

>>375975205
Pokken was hype as fuck, but it is trapped in JP arcades and on the WiiU until Super Pokken Tournament releases on the Switch.

Has much been revealed about playing it without motion controls and just using the controller normally?

It's always been decent. Pikachu, Lucario, Mewteo, and Charizard and mandatory normie mons, Blaziken, Garchomp, Gengar, and Gardevoir are pretty popular, and Weavile, Sceptile, Chandelure, Sczior, and Machamp are popular amohg more niche fans, Suyicuine and darkrai are the next most well known and liked legendaries after mewtwo, and braixen is for furfags.

It's a pretty damn well put together roster and covers a ton of demographics and almost all pokemon types

We've already seen that Spring Man has actual hands. They presumably work like hands should and his arms are just fine, if only stretchy. Probably enough humans/mutants/whatever are born with stretchy limbs to the point where half the population, or at least a decent size, could potentially have stretchy arms. If they wanna make a living for themselves by fighting against other stretchy-armed folk, let them do so.
