Ronnie Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I got Pirahna Plant in the post the other day. It looks fantastic, great quality as usual. Remember when everyone was up in arms about amiibo, good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, nice to see an amiibo which looks like you can get it out of the packaging without destroying it. Why can't they make all of them this way? That's weird. You could buy this at GAME well before Christmas. @Ike did you manage to get the Piranha Plant? My latest batch arrived last week. The Ice Climbers are fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, thanks for the heads up, didn't expect GAME to come through. I need to pick up Ice Climbers as well, wasn't sure at first but I think I will now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowserBasher Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I got all three of the new ones. My SSB collection remains intact. (Apart from the few player two variants that I didn’t bother with). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero-of-Time Posted May 7, 2019 Author Share Posted May 7, 2019 It's crazy how easy it is to pre-order these things now. I'm so happy we no longer have to be sitting waiting at the exact time for when they put them up on their site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu's a poser. 11 hours ago, bob said: Isn't Donkey Kong the first quadruped? OK, you win this round. Even if he does walk around on two feet in Donkey Kong 64. EDIT: Actually, no. I take it back. DK hides it well, but I'm on to him! Bipedal scum! @Ronnie should give the first quadruped in Smash the respect it deserves!

Dcubed Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) Technically, aren't all simians bipedal? So that does indeed give Ivysaur that illustrious title (in fact, it's still the only quadruped in Smash!) Edited May 9, 2019 by Dcubed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most are knuckle walkers, as can be seen in this gif: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markderoos Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 No no no @bob, Pikachu is as quadrupedal in its movement as Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong is a gorrila which are apes. Apes are a subspecies of monkeys or simians. Apes are indeed knucklerunners. Pikachu is based on a mouse which are pure quadrupedal runners. But even while it’s a fantastical creation, you can see it never runs on its hind feet. So pikachu is 100% quadrupedal with the ability to stand and walk on its hind legs. conclusion; both DK and Pikachu are the first quadrupedal fighters in Smash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu does walk around on his hind legs sometimes, which is why I put him in the 'sometimes' category, but he is listed as a quadruped here - https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pikachu_(Pokémon) (other Pokémon websites are available) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even by this nonsense tables logic, shouldn't King K. Rool be in sometimes quadrupedal? Also, Greninja never actually walks with it's hands. No, crawling doesn't count. Otherwise, that opens a whole different can of worms. And I still refuse to accept DK as quadruped. Literally his running animation. I admit I chuckled at Ice Climbers, but come on, Ivysaur's the first. It was almost Diddy, but Pokémon Trainer was revealed in Brawl before Diddy.
