Majestic Twelve - Best Fan-Made Amiibo

We talked about it on this week’s podcast and in an upcoming BulletPoints. Amiibo are annoying to a degree, but the custom amiibo scene is actually quite incredible. So I figure, let’s take a moment to recognize the brilliant craftsmanship and dedication it takes to make these cheap looking Amiibo’s look like works of genuine talent. I’ll do my best to include names. If you are the creator of an Amiibo we showcase and you’re name was omitted, please let us know in an email (evacstation@gmail.com) and we’ll make the edit as needed. Let’s get started.

BulletPoints: Smash Bros 3DS: You Probably Already Bought It

I already did a first impressions from the demo and I know a review of the game is absolutely pointless. No matter what negative reviews exist for it, if you have a 3DS already or any inclination to play Smash Bros, regardless of platform or graphics, you will have already bought, beaten, and possibly even returned to Gamestop your copy of Super Smash Bros 3DS before this review has gone up. And while that is probably the case, my goal isn’t to review it and tell you that you shouldn’t buy it. Instead, this is more like a review explaining what I like and don’t like and why I’m ultimately more interesting in the WiiU offering scheduled for later this year. There’s your preface, now segway into the “review”. 

Majestic Twelve - Best Fighters of Smash Bros

Continuing out Top 12 lists of all things Smash, I thought we’d have fun with a character list with the best and worst. Again, much like the top stages, this isn’t solely based on competitive reasoning. How the character plays, my personal preferences, and references to the characters original games all help in this decision. While I can’t legitimately use characters from Smash 4, I can reference Mega Man and Villager as they are playable in the demo, so I can actually provide input there.

Reloading: Behind the Smashing (Part 1)

With Smash Bros 4 around the corner and the demo now available widely to EVERYONE, I thought I’d have some fun with today’s topic. As some may know, some characters have been cut from the roster. And while this genuinely upsets people, I like to poke fun of the situation by making fun little stories for the series. As such, here are my stories for why some characters were cut and why others were able to make returns. None of these are obviously serious, but do try to enjoy. :D
