Sonic and friends have absolutely never fucking ever been fur-shaded...

Sonic and friends have absolutely never fucking ever been fur-shaded, and as technology has progressed the respective character designs have not changed significantly in a more furry direction.

Some characters have tufts of fur on their sprites in the 2D games, but in the 3D games the characters still continue to look like they're molded out of plastic and/or rubber.

What the fuck is the deal?

The deal is they aren't supposed to look realistic and Sega already gets the furry tismbux, so they have no reason to go further.

Some examples of characters that are clearly furry animals

The characters are more fuckable that way.

Too much realism is often a bad thing. In the case of Sonic, they're probably also taking into consideration that the characters are going to be moving very fast so their designs need to stay clean, and that too detailed fur could potentially tank the framerate.

Post porn.

And it always looks uncanny as fuck. Only one of those it works with is DK, but that's because he barely has any cartoonish elements and looks mostly like a regular ape.

This user has the right idea

This art is pretty damn subpar.

Hair physics do retarded shit at high speed.
And if it didn't move at all it'd look even worse.

I'm not talking about hair, just fur.

Because it would fuck up the anime/cartoon aesthetic. None of the characters were ever intended to be have realistic fur.

It's to allow closet furfags to pretend they aren't furry despite fetishizing characters with snouts.

They aren't designed to be animal like, they are designed to look like mascots. Look up buffalo belle and tell me she doesn't look straight out of sonic.

There was one.

if there was a port for constant 60fps i would play unleashed a lot more than ever.

holy shit i need that sauce

You asked for it.

If you look at gameplay of Sonic Forces, you notice the "fur" color for custom characters is labeled as "skin color"

Now that's fucking creepy. Does it mean sonic spikes are actually inside his skin, growing from his internal organs?

NO

boards.4chan.org/trash/thread/11022504

Game Theory: Sticks is Alex Jones

Fur shading has never been a requirement due to the fact that sonic and co are based off of Inkblot style characters.

What's that? All I read was 'Sonic and friends' and 'fucking'.

I want to fuck every single Sonic character. Every one. Doesn't even matter. I'll take any of em'. They're all about the same and I wanna fuck em' all.

...

Nice 2005 meme. Are you going to poast Nigga Stole My Bike next?

I think the majority here agrees that you're a fucking FAG.

So what?

It's funny you're saying this, since nowadays, only Sonic is seen to be able to run fast.

Correct, but it's only being made by Taxman and its small team, not SEGA or Sonic Team.

How do their eyeballs even work? they look like they have one massive eyeball with two pupils.

Magic.

...

Dolphin?

Wii and ps2 version of unleashed are garbage.

This a qt badger. I'd hug her and pet her.

Nope, they're pretty good also.

Majority of Sonic characters don't have snouts to begin with.

So, are they allowed on /monster/?

No, because reasons, that are not explained meanwhile, polt is fine. Then a mass sperg out happens when Musou Stars gets announced and the 3 main characters get mixed responses on whether they're furry or not. Shits never really consistent.

Real hedgehogs only have fur on the part of Sonic that looks like skin, so making that part look furry would probably look gross, because it was never designed to look even close to realistic. The blue part is supposed to be spines, not fur. Each of those things on his back isn't a clump of fur, each one is a single giant spine, and the same goes for what's on Amy's and Knuckles' heads. Only a few characters, like Tails or Rouge, would make more sense as actually being covered in fur, and then it would look weird compared to the hedgehog characters.


Hedgehog spikes are technically fur, but they're certainly not what OP is talking about. Each one of the things on his back is a giant strand of very hard hair.


Old Crash looked better.

Polt still gets shit regularly.
Button noses are furry.

MAKE AMY NUDE IN THE NEXT SANIC GAME!!

ITS ONLY FAIR!!

The stock photo wilderness background makes me giggle.

I haven't gone to cuckchan in a long time. Why the hell is /trash/ a thing when Holla Forums exists

Furry porn.

Obligatory disclaimer: You're a degenerate.
hitomi.la/galleries/558543.html

It's drawn like that because real hedgehogs have a fold of skin kind of similar to eyebrows above their eyes that they can use to pull their head quills over their face when they get scared or whatever, and it ends up looking like that. It makes sense for Sonic because they essentially have super expressive eyebrows, giving them a lot of 'tude. The issue is that anime has huge eyes, so they made the eyes so huge they take up the entire face and meet in the middle. And the mouth is the same color as the chest, even though the chest should be fur and the mouth is the one part that isn't furry. But I'm sure if you shrunk Sonic's eyes and colored the area around his eyes the same color as his chest or mouth, it would look gross.

None of this was ever supposed to look realistic.

Except the fangs. Sometimes they remember to give Sonic fangs and that's a neat touch I never appreciated until I actually got a pet hedgehog recently.


This comic gets the point across well, but if you want to be realistic, the face should be the same color as the chest.

who drew that Buckly B^U?

you're hedgehog looks insane. why do animals always have red eyes in photos anyway?

It has to do with flash. Happens with humans too. But modern cameras are able to reduce the effects.

The flash from the camera is hitting the back of the eye, reflecting off the retina. This is deliberately done during filming in Blade Runner to give the red eye gleam to all the replicants.

New Knuckles rap.

HERE I COME

Nigger you really can't look at the thread first?

Blaiziken is a fucking chicken idiot, those are feathers.

They didn't even try

kill yourself

...

Laughing Pairotto is a fucking parrot idiot, those are feathers.

They kind of were in Sonic 06. You really have to look close at them to see bits of hair.

That was only the pre-renders

It doesn't count?

I guess it kinda does, I thought OP was more talking as in-game.

somebody post some furry amy art

there's gotta be some somewhere, sonic has the medal for most autistic fanbase

this your first day on the internet? Also is /fur/ raiding or some shit?

...

I think the implication was that he's a gym teacher or coach. Because they always yelled at students to provoke potential lawsuits.

sauce

think of it like car wind shield

>>>/suicide/

Fur retains dirt and grime and bacteria of all sorts way better than skin, and thus furry creatures are often much more dirty and disgusting than non-furred creatures.

Wanting to have sexual relations with a furry creature is basically the same thing as wanting to fuck a dumpster.

Wild yes, but remember furry creatures can be domesticated and have proper hygiene and regular baths as well. Would you really let a furry waifu get all dirty in the first place?

Sonic canonically sweats, and most of the others probably do too.

I don't have to explain how that can build up pretty quick and smell really bad really fast.

Sonic's not an animal. He's a classic style cartoon.

He's ink.

Thanks for reminding me I need to save some nice hot Amy and Rouge human dickings.

...

The original designer said he literally just put Felix's head on Mickey's body. Of course they refined it after that but that was the prototype.

at least post a good one where amy is in a sonic pose.

The scan for this is bad?

I actually have a copy I never scanned because I saw this was already uploaded at the usual spots.

Thse proportions are fucked.

I'm pretty sure bats don't wear high heels or have amazing racks, either

By this logic, scalies are less disgusting than humans.

...

I keep having to resist urges to edit in sclera for the eyes, it fucking bothers me that there aren't any, it doesn't look right.

yes thats true

Im pretty sure i want to fuck Rouge.

I want a Sonic generation with nose bridges.

Honestly I think you might be onto something.

That shit is /furry/random

That doesn't look bad at all.

You can see shadows from it not being scanned flat, however I wouldn't recommend ruining your copy for a proper scan as they may eventually release an uncensored version via patreon.

This doesn't look half bad i would actually would like it that way.

I feel like Sonic characters were always intended to look sort of like they were made of rubber or plastic. Look at the shine on the sprites.

Shit wrong image

It bothers me greatly that the mania design is based on the original sprites rather than the far superior 3 sprites

Needs that retro appeal- how better to convey that than basing it off that sprite.

Doing it with 3D models or with line art/vector graphics wouldn't be a problem as long as they are a clearly defined and seen as sprites.
The gameplay is what people want.

I hate that a bit too. But it at least has the most familiar charm. Too bad we also miss out on the superior Super Sonic sprites because of it.

FRAG OUT

This is the ideal Sonic sprite. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

>Good looking sprite from what is widely recognized argued as the best game in the series doesn't have enough appeal
That's godawful reasoning
I'm sure the real reason has more to do with the hack community revolving around 1 and 2 for all these years due to technical reasons

That looks quite nice.

Now that I think about it, it seems only the hedgehogs have the mono-eye thing going on. Tails, knuckles, rouge, big, fucking everyone has a nose bridge EXCEPT the hedgehogs. Shadow is the closest to having one and it's only because of his ultra edgy scowl.

Maybe that's why Eggman hates them.

...

Isn't it confirmed hedgehog eyes are two giant eyes but close together like Garfield eyes or Felix the Cat eyes, hence

That actually looks good, Sega really needs to just redesign them to have individual eyes, even if Chris-chan throws another sperg fit over it.

I would believe it but I've not seen any confirmation in any manner.

I want to gift you with your waifu.

Seriously look at Rouge's fucking artwork.

Rouge has never fucking looked like a bat. NEVER. She's looked more like a FUCKING CHIHUAHUA than ANYTHING. ESPECIALLY her Sonic Heroes Rendition.

Remove those stupid little fucking wings and I bet you the averae person won't know what the fuck she is. The thing about Sonic Characters is that they're ambiguous as hell compared to their real world counterparts, save for tails, big and blaze.
Sonic has fucking cat ears for gods sake.

BIG FAT BAT TATS
GIVE ME MORE

Hedgehogs are more spiney than they are furry.

...

They're hedgehogs, you silly monkey. They're not meant to have fur.

We truly live in a decadent and disgusting society.

why do you think every sonic character has "The (Insert species here)" at the end of their name except for eggman?

Because exactly what you said.

Wait, what the fuck, I thought Felix came BEFORE Mickey. Oh my god, my life is a lie.

It did. That user is a liar.

user didn't mention anything about the order Felix and Mickey were created in in the first place what're you on about. He just said that Ohshima said Sonic is Felix' head on Mickey's body. Which he roughly is.

The sprite isn't good if it makes sonic look like he has a single straight line of spikes going down his back like in that shitty cartoon

Though the rest of your post reminded me that it could always be worse, it could be some mickey mouse shit where no matter which direction sanic is facing the side-on spikes are always facing the camera so as to constantly display the recognizable brand logo when he's on screen

you want fur on sonic, you got fur on sonic. Now in taco.

Any weeb anons know the song at 3:00?

...

ayyy that music tho

where the fuck my picture

A bunch of nerds bitching is close to nothing, for a proper scale, compared to the amount of fucked up shit that got or will get normalized with irreversible results.

You're not wrong in many aspects.

Bats have completely different faces and even if she was based on a flying fox, her face is STILL wrong.

What the fuck are you doing here then nigger?

Amy Rose
Metal Sonic
Fang the Sniper
Chaos
E-102 "Beta"

Jesus Christ.

I feel as she was a late inspiration after SA. Remember, Sonic Team went to Mexico for inspiration while developing SA1, as well as other countries. They most likely saw a Chihuahua and told themselves "Hey, it's cute. Let's sexualize it.."
info.sonicretro.org/Game_Development:Sonic_Adventure#Sonic_Team.27s_Travels
That's just speculation though, since knuckles also looks nothing like an echidna and he came years before SA.
I wonder if angel island in S3&K is still in Mexico, but just has the Chaos Shrine underground in this canon.
As I said, Mexico (or some other south American country) hadn't come to them until sonic went 3D.

Angel Island is constantly moving. it just so happens that in Sonic Adventure it landed extremely close to where it originally came from. But not in exactly the same spot. It landed next to the same pyramid it was originally next to, but on the wrong side.

There were always multiple shrines on Angel Island, too. We see an outdoor one in Knuckles' final boss fight and again in the game's ending.

Can you edit sclera for this crazy Kong?

Good catch user.
I wonder if the master emerald is capable of teleporting, or somehow splitting itself in all the shrines simultaneously until it is taken by someone. Since it's missing indefinitely in all shrines until it is placed back in its rightful place.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicxulub_crater
I also wonder if the shrine and location of the Echidna village is meant to represent the equivalent of the real world meteor crater that all dinosaurs were wiped out by, if not, I'd love for a future Sonic game to expand on that. Unless it IS and Chaos itself is an ayylien that came from the meteor that struck earth, but I'm just speculating again. It would explain how the shrine was able to be used in the SA2 biolizard scene, then again, it might just be energy in general.
By pyramid, you mean those Aztec pyramids, right? I do remember angel island having a pretty rough landing in an SA cutscene.

Well that was just a replica shrine built by Gerald, so clearly there's nothing about the main shrine that is perfectly unique.

There's a huge Aztec style pyramid in the Mystic Ruins that you see in the present and also in the flashback sequences, but in the flashback sequences, the area that would become Angel Island is located opposite the cliff that leads down to a giant jungle, while in the present, Angel Island has landed on the left side of the Pyramid, if you're facing the cliff. So it landed very close to where it was originally from, but not exactly.

Plus, in Sonic 3 it just lands directly in the ocean. So it's not just hovering over the same spot. The emeralds make islands move, like South Island did in the earliest games. We never see this when the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald are together, though, but it's well established that they cancel each other out, so that can make sense.

Here, you earned one more. I like this kind of shit. I'll get back to you, let me just watch the video.

Stop

gay

but also neat

The fanbase flipped their shit when they toggled the main character's arm color. What the hell do you think those autistic fucks would do if suddenly these characters looked like they had actual fur?

Masturbate

Chris is not the entire fanbase.

People with enough autism realized that Blue Arm Sonic was a different guy from a different universe. It was never intended to be canon to the main universe. See that's Chris's problem. He's not autistic enough. I ascribe to the theory that Chris does not actually have autism, but rather had another rare syndrome that causes children to temporarily forget how to talk, and misdiagnosis and bad parenting resulted in him being more socially retarded from this than he needed to be.

sonichu.com/cwcki/Autism_Awareness_E-mails

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landau–Kleffner_syndrome

Bump

I would fuck all of them tbh

Man, that's fucked up.

He's not, but he is a pretty good representation of them


What makes you think that? Some of Chris's other issues (such as his spontaneous pants-shitting and bowel issues) can sometimes be symptoms of autism.

shit chart

A better question would be why the fuck has [the sonic community] taken over Holla Forums?

We've always been here, we just rarely have anything to talk about
That question's about as retarded as asking when people on Holla Forums started to like some of the older halo games, or jumping into a morrowind thread to accuse people of being bethesda shills

...

There have been plenty of threads here and there over the years, your fault if you missed all of them
Shit, we've probably had a separate thread for every single new piece of information that was revealed about this game and forces

The fanbase only really mad fun of the athletic tape and the tall character designs but they got over it because the show is so fun.

They only come out of the woodwork for Sonic related shit

People still think knuckles looks retarded
Which is probably appropriate considering that's like his only defining character trait now

I remember a time when sonic spergs, alongside furfags in general were some of the biggest, loudest, most retarded autists around, spergs that knew nothing of subtlety and cared little to learn it.

How times have changed.

I think your problem here is that you're assuming every sonic autist is one of those extreme OC-making aspies
Like with most fandoms, most of those kinds of people go to deviantart or tumblr so they can have a hugbox and talk about hyperanus vore with hats on or whatever

Deviantart maybe. But ironically the ones on Tumblr are the better fandom compared to the Steven Universe or basically any fandom there.

Well, she's a white bat and wasn't ace venture 2 rather popular around the same time SA2 was in development?

There's a mod for Sonic Generations on PC that adds the unleashed stages minus werehog stages.

Check the links. There's evidence for it. Some bizarre parts of his life would be well explained by Landau Kleffner syndrome. That, combined with misdiagnosis and general bad parenting, explain a lot. I'm just saying, it's an interesting theory that I think deserves further exploration.


Ace Ventura 2 came out while Sonic Adventure 1 was being developed. But they could have still been inspired by it.

Female hedgehogs can have that but people would sperg out massively if male hedgehogs have this too

Big Red Button wanted to fix that with Sonic Boom, but Sega wouldn't let them do it.

(Also, Sega made them move the game to the WiiU, even though it was always intended for Xbone/PS4, which meant a massive reworking of the whole thing to a much less powerful system that was not well supported by the engine they used - all without a change in deadline. Now you know why it was a rushed mess.)

escapistmagazine.com/news/view/138647-Sonic-Booms-Rejected-Sonic-Redesigns

I FAPPED 4 TIMES TODAY, ENOUGH

Welp, I guess that explains why half the dev team walked out.

No Sonic's one eyes are iconic. All male hedgehogs should have them as the separate eyes look more feminine for them

...

I came here for the Amy and Rouge porn, there are only two Amy pictures. What a shit thread.

You can just go to already /kemono/

I dunno, why does Mickey Mouse not have fur despite being a mouse? It's a style that looks appealing. Or as said, porn.


She actually is, though.


Neat.


Actually, Eggman's name used to be Egg the Man in early design documents for Sonic 1.


Chaos is just a mutated Chao. Don't know how Chao even become literally water in the first place, but whatever.
The shrine was there because (according to Sonic Battle) Gerald did research into the ancient echidna civilization. This is also where the Artificial Chaos and Emerl came from.


kek


I forgot where I read it, but weren't most of them just fired out of the blue after working long hours?

To be fair, they never actually say that Chao are water creatures like Chaos, or that Chaos is some sort of mutated Chao. But it certainly makes sense.

End your life

I think it was in Chaos' Sonic Channel bio where they stated that.

If it ain't in the games or at least the manuals it ain't canon. I mean the people doing the games now have forgotten about the old manuals for sure, and have forgotten most of stories from the games that actually had cutscenes. No way they'll remember stuff that was only on some website.

If what was canon was decided by what sonic team cared to remember there wouldn't be any canon outside of what they need for whatever encapsulated adventure they're doing

Well sure but I'm just saying, this is really tertiary material we're talking about here.

If it ultimately doesn't matter either way, then what's the point in even arguing about it?

Because I'm too autistic to not argue about Sonic threads on Holla Forums.

/trash/ is slower. Its like Holla Forums 2.0

It's been days but I came back here to tell you you were wrong and also retarded
Heroes confirms Chaos is related to the Chao
I for one am shocked at this incredible logical leap, who could have possibly guessed

Metal Sonic kidnaps Chocola to get Chaos data, but they never say how exactly they're related.

Like yeah it all makes sense but it's like they forgot to actually explicitly say it.

ok

Chocola and Froggy

Who is the best character in hentai and why is it Amy Rose? There is not one well-drawn Amy Rose picture that doesn't make me absolutely diamonds, its like she was designed to be lewded.

...

wasnt there that one fan made sanic movie with nostalgia critic or something that made him all furry and it looke werd as fuck like he had mange?
that probably why

That's because she's best girl.

to stick my dick in, make her incredibly lewd. Just for me.

beautiful

She's the best girl user.

It's the coloring dude. The tan color on her pussy being pink wouldn't look that good.

Hell, I'd still hit it.

...

...

...

Argento is okay, but Apostle's Amy is always good.

So has Mania been cracked yet or what?

It's got denuvo user, what do you think

We're good to go then?

No

Oh.

Holy shit, Sega is scummy as fuck.Turns out the real reason why Sega delayed the game a few weeks and gave out Sonic 1 was to fuck over people who pre-ordered wanted a refund after discovering Denuvo (which they only revealed on the day of release)

steamcommunity.com/app/584400/discussions/0/1471967615874550279/?ctp=3

Also trying to pin the blame on the devs and Valve.
Fucking classy.

You had one goddamn job Sega. Fuck you. Also fuck Mark, I still blame him for this

you see, anons
if sonic mania is a good game with bad DRM, that means less people buy it, which makes SEGA look better because they didn't actually develop the game
that also means forces does better by comparison

FUCKING SEGA

Thanks.

All that does is make me hate Sega.

say that to their stockholders

So you want me to want to see Sega die? That works too. :^)

Erase the eyes from his face and put them on the goggles

Wouldn't the best course of action be to rally the normalfags into boycotting Sonic Forces' PC release?

Topic wasn't good enough for a new thread so i'll just ask here.

Whats a good game to play while listening to gangster rap from the 90's?

GTA San Andreas

And thus the Sonic Cycle continues.

I swear to fucking god does nobody know what the sonic cycle is anymore?

Pc sales are too insignificant to matter that much.

Yes this cycle that was relevant for 1 game sure is truly cyclical, tell me about the windows cycle and zelda cycle next you autistic faggot

Whenever I hear Sonic Cycle now all I think of is redditfags.

It's the mouth.
Animal mouths = furry

Oh shit, I almost forgot that after 06 people actually thought the problem was that sanic had too many friends
People were fucking stupid

Sonic Adventure, Knuckles' story.


People were saying that before '06. It was big ever since the Gamecube re-releases.

>Classic Sonic & Friends &Knuckles adventuring through some new zones with tons of bantz

FOR WHAT PURPOSE? WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF PUBLISHER JUST DROPS A 3 ISSUE COMIC HALFWAY THROUGH?

It's not a 3 issue comic. That was like issue 297 or something, plus like an extra hundred or so spinoff issues they've done over the years. Archie is a notoriously fucked company, making basically every mistake you can imagine a corporation making. Let's see how many I can remember off the top of my head. In no particular order.


So be it. IDW or someone will pick it up and probably make it way better. The only reason Archie Sonic was readable was because they started hiring fans to create Sonic material before Sega caught on to the act, and they got the most autistic writer in the world to write great fanfiction, with the help of great fan artists (who by the way were all actual works for hire and living below the poverty line, never knowing if Archie would hire them to do the subsequent issue). But even this was still held back by the writer's autism insisting that he keep using the comic and TV show OCs. He did a good job trying to salvage it, but it was ultimately just polishing a turd.

Go read the Sonic the Hedgehog Story Comic. It's the very first adaptation, and the only one that isn't incredibly retarded.

I thought everyone knew the whole time that they were adding denuvo? I mean why else would they have delayed it? It already leaked and played just fine. Anyone who didn't know it was for denuvo is a fucking idiot.

...

Mark played on the switch

He looked okay when he was moving but when he stopped he looked like a blue blob compared to the older versions.

FRAME
PERFECT
ART
CRITIC

...

I find it funny that people are flipping their shit over Denuvo as if they had no idea it was going to happen. When I heard the game was being delayed for two weeks after a leak, I decided not to get it because it was more than obvious what they were up to. People still tried to convince me it was optimization, but I was also not a retard and didn't pre-order it.

He had actual dimension to him. Looked practically 3D. It was awesome.

The eyes and hands have more definition, the spines don't look like a flat mohawk, the shoes aren't weirdly flat
It's just all around better

Fucking amazing.

And the worst part is that every single word of this post is true.

It's not the Denuvo part that gets me. It's the fact that Sega of Europe flat-out lied about it. Even when called out on their shit, they were phrasing their statements as if to suggest "someone else is at fault for this, not us." The devs, Valve, Mark, anyone but them. I heard they were scummy as shit, but good lord.

Goyim, think of the denuvo as a reminder to who founded Sega in the first place.

First of all I would very much love to hear about this strange technology that you are talking about that would allow making a fur like appearances more simple as I would love to be able to use it for my sonic inspired hayde skins set idea as its hard as fuck to get fur in models without modeling the fur then baking the model as a normal map especially since making normal maps from scratch is fucking difficult from a work flow perspective because you can't really get a look at the results without first rendering in engine anyway, otherwise you could always use participial systems for simulating a fur but partial systems take up resources in rendering.

Second, hedgehogs fur is not
that nice to look at

Fucking hell can't post with 2 images from clipboard for some reason

Reminder it was Sega of Europe that tried to shut down Streets of Rage Remake back in 2011, even after the devs got permission to make from SOA.

It's because each of the spikes on Sonic or Shadow or Silver's backs, or the locks on Amy or Knuckles' heads, are not clumps of hair, they are individual spines, drawn cartoonishly large. Putting a fur texture over them like in that fan movie makes no sense.

BLUE

ARMS

...

I'm like 90% sure they've been rendered as hair styles in some of the games

It would have have to been '06 or something more current. But I don't think they have. Maybe the Werehog. Either way, if they did actually try to render fur on top of the spines, they fucked up.

This episode serves as a good reminder that the schizophrenic in-fighting that sunk Sega in the 90s never really ended.

SEGA does what Nintendon't.
Fuck itself over and go third party.
Seriously, if SEGA was even at least half as competent as Nintendo, they'd still be in the race, causing quality titles to submerged due to making the opposing company TRY harder to win the crowd. Now Nintendo has NO competition in the console market and barely has to try to make money
FUCK!!!!!

Its just an option calm down.

I know for a fact having examined existing textures of sonic characters from 3D games that they have portreyed them as clumps of hair or at the very least added hair lines to them, but they did it in the normal maps and in the textures only and it was to a very small degree pic related is from Generations I'm assuming fal refers to some type of normal/bump mapping.

Fuck everything today.

I should just save them but why bother damnit.

So you can remember the time you fucked up your Haydee texture mod by drawing a penis on her torso.

FUCKING KEK
I was trying to emulate this from the comics but haydee is so fucking fat that she can't have a figure matching shape. I'll probably just do a more simple circular shaped one instead. Really my main focus has been trying to get normal maps and specular maps that work.

Keep telling yourself that Nintencuck.

He's right. Sony and microsoft compete because they often have mostly the same third party titles. Nintendo has shut out everything, they aren't competing with sony to get people to play destiny on the switch, they are holding all their games hostage on one platform. And they don't really have to try, has any move nintendo made in the past ten years been a smart one or one that required effort? Nintendo is off in their own little world.

...

Oh and also
Pics related. Get your head out of your ass Mark.

Mania's sprite has all those things though

Are you trying to tell me those were smart moves? I could maybe give you effort for the switch and wiiu, but those are just dumb gimmicks.

No, the opposite. There's a crossed wire in communication here I guess.

This is a drawing of a penis

I fucking hate Nintendo with a burning passion though.

My point was that nintendo has monopilized it's system. Much like apple products do, you use itunes on your iphone and laptop, have one apple account for all your shit, etc., nintendo has locked out competition by only letting their games release on their platform. What sony and microsoft do is irrelevant to them because they aren't really competing for the same audience. And because of this no matter how they fuck up or misstep, they will always have people buying (to an extent, the wiiu was still a failure, but I don't know why it was when the switch seems pretty successful so far) because anyone who wants to play any of their games has to use their hardware.

Nonexistant marketing
No major first party launch title.
The Wii U pad can't have the controller parts removed
Not as portable capable as the Swtich.

Because parents literally thought it was just a new gamepad for the Wii. Yes, they thought it was a $300 gamepad.

Living in your own world and "creating" a monopoly where you and your own customers huff each other's farts in the face of dwindling revenue isn't an accomplishment.
