@@jonteguy I don't know.. I definitely enjoyed Killer Instinct more than Tekken. Street Fighter had some great titles over the years though. If we're just comparing original Street Fighter vs. Killer Instinct then I'd go with Killer Instinct 100%, but if we're going off what was out at the time of release of the latest game, Killer Instinct, then I'd probably still side with Killer Instinct. Street Fighter 2 was a great game that was a lot of fun but I really loved the combo system in Killer Instinct!

If you think about it in most Zelda games the big bad (usually Ganon) just sits around waiting for Link to show up & confront him. Link could procrastinate for months or YEARS and nothing would change in the world. Majora Mask's Skull Kid is the only one with any agency. He commands the moon to crash into Termina and if you sit around doing nothing for 3 days EVERYONE DIES.

@katylia Ай бұрын

I don't believe that Ganon sat around for no apparent reason. There was always a motive Ganon had to begin with. As for Majora's Mask, that was probably the most traumatizing thing ever.

The problem for the first question was that here in the US all those games came out the same year. We would not have been privy to the release dates in Japan.

@specialmomentspros 25 күн бұрын

To be fair to the trivia, Zelda still came out before Metroid did in the US as well even though it was very close as you said. I'd agree it at least warrants a mention! There were plenty of other more concrete problems with the trivia too. Punch-Out!! is a much older franchise than Battletoads and Super Punch-Out!! was the second arcade game title long before Battletoads on the NES or Super Punch-Out!! on the SNES existed. Raptor is not a character in Killer Instinct and is an obvious misspelling of Riptor. Most egregiously, there is no "first task you have to complete" in The Legend of Zelda. It is famously the granddaddy of all open-world games. The only mandatory task given on the opening screen crawl is to retrieve the Triforce of Wisdom pieces to save Zelda. Otherwise, you can do things in practically any order. Hell you can even skip the first sword cave altogether, collect all the Triforce pieces, and get all the way to Ganon himself without having any sword at all. Pretty bad curating!
