why hide the dude's missile, it's making him less interesting
pasta la vista
BIG/SMALL NORM IS IN THE HOUSE
NORMIES WHERE YOU AT?
>Best racer gets best skin
Why main anyone else?
Clown world
Where's the rest of the other characters dammit! They said today they would show the rest.
I feel so conflicted. Summertime and HazMat Dingo are both so great.
Mimes =/= Clowns, capiche?
Seems whoever wrote this doesn't realize there's two types of intermediate characters: balanced and acceleration.
Hard to say which characters on this list actually have which stats.
The blogpost didnt mention anything about Penta so I assume there is still more announcements Unless they're keeping Penta a secret
canonically, if you took the missile out he would die
Cnk didnt have an all rounder class so the bosses could be either. Oxide and Trance are accel types though. Everyone else seems to be mimicking the boss order from ctr (ripper roo and krunk are both handling types and the first boss). But of course this pattern is bunk once norm and big norm came into the picture, and of course nash isnt a top speed like papu was.
Yes, he turned it into a sort of life support system/pacemaker.
I still refuse to accept Krunk as Beginner class when little Norm exists as intermediate. I need my Krunk-Papu synergy.
>why hide the missile
How would you expect N. Gin to live a normal life outside of Cortex's employment? Between having a ballistic missile fused to his skull and questionable mental stability I could see Gin trying a number of disguises in a haphazard attempt of integrating back into society.
Underrated
I hope the costumes get special lines of dialogue such as this, but I doubt that will happen.
I'm legitimately disappointed they didn't reveal N. Trance on Easter. I know he's unlockable but it would have been a cool thing.
>still no signs of Tawna
Tawnafags BTFO!
He better have NUMEROUS egg motifs for alts.
So what info did we get?
>Easter parade (springtime colors)
>Humpty Dumpty (counterpart to Pura's Puss in Boots)
>Punished Egg (Twinsanity concept skin)
It practically writes itself.
All characters and tracks from Nitro Kart, possible Adventure Mode content and as of yet unrevealed characters (They're omitting Penta and Big Velo for some reason)
Almost nothing new. N.Trance and the Norms are 100% confirmed now. CNK characters can be unlocked by using Wumpa coins. We also saw all the stat classes and who is in them. "Real" Velo might be also be hinting at Big Guy Velo too.
Here's your alt skin bro
Imagine I posted a Tawna crying Wojak edit.
It confirmed characters we haven’t seen but assumed to be in and told us their stats
As the roster stands it’s all of the ctr and cnk cast excluding Penta
>Celebrating when Penta Penguin hasn't even been confirmed
faggot
>They said today they would show the rest.
No they didn't.
This.
Spare a dime for us Briofags too
>big AND small velo
that's surprising
counting all characters from the blog, we have 25, which awfully convinient for the missing characters to join in and round up the number (Penta, Tawna, Brio, Koala and Moe)
Punished egg would be such an easy addition. Add in Evil Crash for true deep Twinsanity lore.
This would be good enough too.
>Evil Crash
I can dig it
Meant for Don't forget Spyro who is also very likely.
Show us Penta already! I need to know my boy is in!
So this series is mostly mutant animals, evil nerds, and ayy lmaos?
i think Spyro is coming as a DLC pick, desu. maybe the latter 4 could also be DLC, but i dunno
Where's Megumi?
magic masks, too
Right here
Hang in there. Our patience shall be rewarded. Trust the cut-off near off screen orange hands from the reveal trailer.
Yeah, pretty much.
>penta cut
>none of the missing trilogy characters in
>no spyro
welp, there goes my hype
How many characters do you plan to use? Damn
this is not final, dumbass
They haven't explicitly said those aren't in the game. And Penta would definitely be in considering the basis is a remake of a game it was in.
>penta cut
They've said all original CTR characters are coming back retard.
How can i get a big tittied bandicoot thot gf like Tawna?
You're a special kind of stupid, here's your (You)
Build an evolvo-ray.
How many characters are we at now?
Be a big-brain with an evolve-o-ray.
god imagine the new coco porn when it releases
HOWS THIS JOINT LOOKING BOYS? I LOVED THE ORIGINAL BUT IF THIS IS SHIT ILL JUST GET MARIO KART EIGHT
>only played Crash 3 as a kid
>mfw don't recognize 90% of the roster
SHE'S IN!
youtube.com
25
26
It's not like you need to recognize anyone anyways.
Same
>90%
Crash 3 has Crash, Coco, Cortex, N. Gin, Tiny, Dingodille, N. Trophy and Pura. this ain't 90%, pal
did you guys not see ? why would they do a write up on the roster if they hadn't revealed it all already? why would they omit ONE single character from that reveal?
penta probably got cut due to being a cheat code only unfinished afterthought character, and aside from him there's every indication this is the final roster
we still don't 100% know if penta is or not
>I'm not thirsty
Heh
To give people a general feel of where characters will land when it comes to their class? You know the bosses weren’t playable in cnk
Is this a Dreamcast version?
right here, along with her friends.
Stupid sexy bandicoot
Fellow normie, reporting in.
At this point i'm convinced we're getting the Tag Team Racing characters as well.
>”Examples include”
And yet they still felt the need to specify real velo from his false form and used language that imply that the list isnt all-encompassing
Maybe you're just too stupid to read past the lines, ever think of that?
me on the left
I'M BUYING ALL THE SKIN
Needs an update desu
>the game will feature ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM CTR AND CNK
Read you illiterate motherfuckers
add Nina and we're gold
you look like a tranny lmao
Cortex better have a clown skin
>yfw Cortex and Norm-only races
if that's the case then why they didn't mentioned Penta?
yeah but they use that wording then describe literally the entire roster with it
honestly its probably a wording mistake, since nowhere in CNK is Velo referred to as real or fake anyway (his real form in character select is just called Velo) and Fake Velo was never playable anyway
i'm telling you guys, it's only the characters that were playable in CTR and CNK minus Penta. the extra characters dream is dead
if you're gonna play as anything but the default you're a zoomer and you need to die
hoNk
26 currently if you count Penta, and I think we will end with a nice round 35 when it's all said and done if they add these 9 characters.
>Big Velo
>Tawna
>Brio
>Komodo Moe
>Koala Kong
>Spyro
>Nina
>Pasadena
>Von Clutch
Really the only thing missing is obj_motherfucker, but perhaps he'll get his own special spot on the roster screen by being the only character whose stats and costume you can change on the fly. Or maybe we'll get obj_motherfucker plus the 4 trophy girls to round it off to an even 40, but that is a long shot imo.
>no fun allowed
The character select in singleplayer fits 30 slots, assuming it doesn't scroll or hasn't been shrinked mid-development
chill with the pills, gramps
Jesus look at this bloated baby mario garbage
>Fake Velo was never playable anyway
He was playable in the GBA version along with all the other bosses and Spyro.
retard
>fake velo isnt playable
Guess again fucko. He along with the 4 bosses and spyro are playable in the gba version.
nigga those are all OG Crash characters except for the last five
That would be extremely painful.
>ALL the CTR characters
So that means the trophy girls are playable yes?
Good point, but I suppose shrinking the icons wouldn't be too much trouble assuming they didn't hardcap at 30. I'd much prefer that than a scroll.
>Crunch is an "OG Crash character"
>ALL
Playable akuaku and ukauka
>Lobbies full of Normies and Clown Cortexes.
>Everyone just spams the horn honk button non-stop the entire race.
Sign me up.
>that "rooster"
What the fuck was Nintendo thinking?
yes
Do you think Yaya Panda will make it? She from Crash Bandicoot Nitro 2.
is my nigga obj_motherfucker in?
I honestly have no clue. Half the fucking roster is a form of another existing character. Dry Baby Amethyst Waluigi when???
my mistake, I didn't notice Crunch
Either way they're pretty much all worthwhile characters, the only thing that would be comparable to baby mario bloat is if they included the trophy girls which I don't think is likely
The article explains how to unlock CNK and CTR characters specifically. I'm scared we wont get anyone else bros.
They could just make penta a cheat code unlock as a tribute to the old days.
Sure, man, why not. The trophy girls will be playable. Not as separate characters tho, you will have to choose Isabella (she's the default) and the other girls will be skins for Isabella's character.
Sort of like how it happened in SSB with Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings.
zim zam and cram aren't baby mario bloat? literally not a single person exists on this earth that cares about them
>they could just keep thing from the old game in this remake
Gee, you think?
>literally not a single person exists on this earth that cares about them
You got anything to back this opinion, that you believe as fact, up
>I'm scared we wont get anyone else bros.
This write up is pretty much their way of trying to soften the blow that the whole roster's been revealed
Just hope for DLC at this point
Quinton Flynn N. Gin > Corey Burton N. Gin
They were effectively filler even in CNK yeah but they're at least not glorified alt skins like all the baby variations or koopalings. They're actual designed characters.
is the trophy list out, how's the plat? I honestly thinking about getting this day one just for nostalgia sake but if I remember correctly these activision remasters have easy as shit plats except crash 1 of course
I fear you might be right. Chick N Stew making an appearance is the one thing however, that gives me a slight bit of hope otherwise.
I'm still holding out hope as the artcle used phrases like "such as", "examples include" when listing the character roster.
Honestly I've lost hope for anyone else being base game besides maybe Spyro (since he was in fact in a CNK version and they really want EVERY CNK character)
There's no way in hell Beenox hasn't heard the people clamoring for Brio/Tawna/Moe/Kong though, so they have a great chance of making DLC
It is only 3 so seems legit
Where's the tier list?
Man, so much of Mario Kart's roster could have just been skins of pre-existing racers (such as the power-up forms, dry bone koopas, and babies). Beenox did a great job here, I would much rather have had obscure Mario-Nintendo racers that may or may not be literal whos from the Luigi's Mansion, Country, Wario, series then glorified skins as PAID DLC.
They'd be easier to add too as we're simply requesting characters from the N-sane trilogy, they don't have to make them from the ground up like all the CNK characters.
Some of us don't give a shit about CNK but putting literally all the CNK characters (which still takes a lot of slots) in, instead of classic freaking characters from the first 3 Crash games, is a mess and I hope they're simply saving them for last.
Dry Bones is my wife though
>hes dumb enough to fall for the slots meme
>all these people holding out for Tawna
It won't happen. She'll be a background cameo at best.
They saw the popularity of those characters and moved them to DLC.
Wouldn't surprise me.
Post costumes/customs you want to see
From what I've seen so far I honestly doubt it, they sure seem to want to add as much content as possible, when making the game I'm sure characters like Brio and Koala kong were on their mind.
faggot
>pasadena basically confirmed
can't wait for the porn
It seems to be just a costume with the chefs hat in the rockets place.
They went through the trouble of not only adding the CTTR karts, but even the Karts from the PSP exclusive versions and karts that never made it in. And we're doubting iconic crash characters like Brio aren't getting in.
It took people a year to rip the Coco and Tawna models from N.Sane Trilogy, and there still isn't masses of porn. This won't be any different.
This came is a Crash kart game. It won't have characters who weren't racers in the those games.
He was in the first GAME
youtube.com
Did someone notice the Crash Tag Team Racing references? Pasadena when?
>3d is the only kind of porn
Something getting a spotlight is all it takes for the internet to go off the handle and make porn out of a character that doesnt even exist
There's no reason why not, especially since the devs have access to fully rigged models from the N. Sane Trilogy.
>there is a chance for HD Nina and HD Fast Food Outfit
Good lord Beenox PLEASE
All of these, plus Mascot Crash and Pirate N. Gin
Does N-Sane trilogy and Nitro Fueled use the same engine? If not then its still around 70% of the character to implement.
fuck off already you faggot jesus christ every fucking thread
What were they thinking when making this game? Downgrade from both the original and other PS2 racing game.
They do use the same engine
Problem wasn't implementing the characters, it was the project plan being decided on as "CTR + CNK"
So they see people want these other characters but can't add them because they're out of scope of the project plan
I'm pretty sure it does.
I don't understand.
I only played the demo of ctr on my psp likes 10 years ago. It was a lot of fun so I'm kinda excited for this game. It felt mechanically a bit more complicated than mario cart, so I am excited.
wonder if evil coco is gona be a skin for this game? If you see from crystal fissure's video
youtu.be
the devs are pulling tons of obscure stuff from all the games. One of the carts you can use is a psp exclusive kart from tag team racing. Who knows how deep the rabbit hole will go for this game?
this
Why do you need Pink Peach, Babies everything and fucking Tanooki Mario AND Peach
they are saving them for the DLC, they know you would buy it
sorry mate
Who hurt you?
This is my main worry
I don't really see why people want the entire roster spoiled for them. Part of what made old games so exciting was that there were actual secrets in the game. I rather them show me the surface stuff now and let me discover if there are any hidden characters when I actually play it. If there aren't then that sucks but if there are it would get an even bigger reaction. I would love to see Rilla Roo, N. Brio, Penta and the Trophy Girls playable.
They would have to truly be madmen
>30fps
And you're going to give your money to Activision Corporation for this? Disgusting.
Here.
Fake Crash's chinese cowboy impression is so fucking offensive it's causing my stomach ulcer to practically explode.
I'm ready.
I like how you think
I mean scope creep certainly isn't unheard of, there's famous examples like Sonic in Brawl, and in this case specifically it would be a fair bit less work to port some models over from N Sane directly to CTR
I wouldn't say it's out of the question for them to squeeze these guys in, just very unlikely at this point
We just need to hope they make them DLC so we can get the complete Crash roster we lost out on 20 years ago
why is Yea Forums obsessed with Coco?
>why is loli popular on anime imageboard
Please lurk before posting
Look at her
There is not enough coco lewds in this thread
c'mon Yea Forums
hnnngggg
offtopic but what do you call that artstyle?
elder god tier at ms paint

Coco Is the only female character so far, my guess is that the game will have at least another 2. Tawna and a trophy girl would be easier than brand new characters
qt nerd tomboy
I would say it's high pixel count pixel art. Some of his other works are hand drawn and some seem to be a mesh between the two.
>no penta
>no tawna
It's over
there's still hope, they were never denied
I'm just hoping for some visuals on Penta. I figure since he was a half complete secret racer everything is kinda up in the air, but in the PS1 CTR he was my favorite.
>tfw Nitro Fueled's mad lad roster is the Crash equivalent of Mario Kart adding RPG characters/Wario Ware characters/DK characters/obscure favorites
What the fuck is wrong with Nintendo? They can't even put in fucking Diddy Kong
There is no way that Penta will not be in if he was in the original game. My only doubt is about the versión of the character and if it will be unlockable. Tawna has a 50/50 chance i think.
>mobile only character
unlikely.
Why do people still doubt Penta when the blogpost says EVERYONE IS HERE from CTR? We didn't see N. Tropy until yesterday's trailer and until that trailer he was the same status as Penta right now.
Penta was a super secret character so it's no shock if they don't want to talk about him.
What version of him do you think we'll get?
...
>thems abs
I need a swole muscle bimbo Tawna now.
gotta prioritize those babies, amirite?
Pretty sure N. Tropy has been confirmed for awhile
I also doubt Penta is not in, dunno about stats
Highly doubt Tawna at this point, seems like they strictly want to keep to the racers, with a guest char or too, Spyro being obvious
wtf
>tfw i will never have that
life is suffering
unpopular opinion: we should not have got other franchises in here. this is mario kart, not smash bros. like, i can understand Link and maaaaybe the AC ones, but the Inklings were just 100% shill
I'm more for Coco x any-of-the-other-bandicoot-girls booby bullying.
The Koopalings are good, at least. Too bad they had to show up the game they decided to pad the roster with Baby Rosalina and Pink-Gold Peach.
>tfw no busty gf to steal your cute little sister away for herself.
I feel like there is a special kind of NTR term for this.
who the fuck is pasadena anyway, another non canon oc like nina?
>shilling for game I like good
>shilling for game I dont like bad
At least have some fucking consistency. I draw the line at characters from direct series spinoffs and anything else is a distant cousin.
If you mean Canon to just mean the Naughty Dog ones, then this game isn't Canon either.
The handler versión. The overpowered Penta was a mistake, i remember reading about it somewhere.
Racer from Crash Tag Team Racing.
youtu.be
and who the fuck are you? some kind of purist that sucks the ND's dick?
>reading comprehension
i never said i liked them. i said i could understand the thought behind, but doesn't mean i agree with the choice
you're not canon
Yes.
is she a rat?
A huge fucking degenerate with a good heart
That game is so weird and bad. it's just a mess.
A love interest worthy of Crash, unlike that skank Tawna

Waking up to that face would both scare me and secretly turn me on at the same time

Alright so Fat NTR Mime and Tutu N.Gin are going to be the bm picks right?
Be sure to lock up the brother stealing cowtits and send them away to a bad place.
Yeah, we should stay with CTR and CNK characters. CTTR characters suck and look very different in style.
i'm too lazy to click links, ok?
Who is this MS Paint guy and is he on Activision's payroll
kempferzero
Hoping tawna gets in
Hope all four of the ND characters do.
>Every skin has a custom podium animation
Holy fucking shit.
Fuck he's crazy
He's keking at speeds that shouldn't be possible
I'd eat her fur burger if you know what I mean.
"Ha-cha-cha-cha!"
the thought behind it was to blatantly shill unapologetically. The only reason you're willing to take it is because they came with tracks unlike inklings
MK's roster is shit and it's not some grand mystery that the general public either despises the roster or is entirely apathetic.
The skins available during the gs/bb demo are entirely flaccid compared to what we've seen in the past 48 hours
Because he was a secret character and they want to keep that mystery? Plus Penta had different stats in different regions. So it adds to the mystery of what he'll get (obviously NA stats)
This but the wumpa is my penis.
Polar has a panda skin, so no and thank god cause I'm sick of people requesting shit characters
Major character in 2 too retard
Fake crash IS Chinese. And it's a white trash prospector anyway, you racist retard
It'll be the NA version without a doubt because of Online that or a new set of stats
Gotta remember the underage here. These faggots grew up on shitty spinoff games
I'll never get used to LaMarche voicing Brio.
>Referencing absolute shit
Retard label still applies
Trash is in, right?
Has been for a long time.
So, how long after the Coco upskirt shots start leaking do you think the game will be censored/altered? I doubt the devs are gonna ignore it with weenies on twitter and game "journalists" screeching at them about it.
chances it's just a void?
I have no doubt in my mind they'll either give her spats, make her bloomers way more obvious as not-panties, give her a void, or change her jump animation to not do the splits.
>make a recolor
>call it a skin
He's grown on me.
If the dress isn't coded to always conveniently cover up then I guess "void" is the thing to go with. I HIGHLY doubt they're brave enough to actually model panties and just leave it at that with dynamic physics. If the game is released on pc then people will no doubt mod and model stuff themselves. Kinda surprised I haven't seen crash porn using the models from N-sane.
RILA ROO CHADS RISE UP!
But both are less than Brendan O'Brian N. Gin.
>Coco with spats under dress
Pic related
>Change Jump animation
Yeah, this would make sense too. It's not very lady-like to spread yourself open. Kicking with both legs to the side (sorry, I don't know what that bike trick is called) would seem more "dignified" but still spunky and energetic. If they do, I wonder if other characters will have different jump animations on some skins as well.
He's the first thing you see in the new trailer.

SAVE THE QUEEN!
So what was the big friday news?
It is kind of a shame to me that non Naughty Dog stuff is acknowledged now. Some designs and characters are actually pretty nice and fit with the older ones, like N. Trance. For this game, the addition of non ND stuff is pretty great since it's just loads of bonus content.
But I honestly think VV is overall bad for Crash.
They bastardised the old artstyle, tone and music of Crash in N Sane; it was a decent attempt and definitely serviceable, but not at all faithful. Using a different approach is fine I guess but, I'm not a fan of the result.
I don't get why VV gets to develop this IP now. They have such a spotty record. Imagine if Nintendo were asked to develop Crash now instead, it'd be night and day.
Fucking nothing honestly.
The only -- and I mean ONLY -- way they won't have accidental upskirts is if they force her to keep both legs in the vehicle. If either leg goes high enough that'll be enough to sneak a peek from the side. Only reason that her jump animation from CTR/CNK or various boosting animations in CTTR were okay were because she was wearing jeans. Although in CTTR they let you get a faceful of her bloomers but that simply will not fly 14 years later.
DINGO'd
They revealed which characters fit into the beginner, intermediate and advanced classes. That's about it.
Pink Gold Coco
NO
And it was only characters we've seen so far, which was dumb.
you just know
There's something really faithful about how Crash looks.
I love it.
>we've seen n.trance and both norms before
>Cute girlxUgly bastard
This has to stop!
splitting hairs desu
Coco belongs to Tawna!
[insert SFW CocoxTawna picture]
At this point everyone is here unless stated otherwise.
delet
At this point, I'm betting there are more characters just because it'd be weird to only have one girl.
Best Coco pairing, anons must search their feelings for they know them to be true
I'll take aliens over random anthropomorphic animals any day.
CORTRX MUTATED THE ANIMALS, IT'S NOT SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
I'll take random anthropomorphic animals over a mutant wumpa fruit. But yes none of the other developers really cared about the details.
I mean if they canonize them all as being reject Cortex Commandos that works out well enough. The Cortex Vortex works by bombarding the victim with multimedia in an attempt to brainwash them, which is why Koala Kong is like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Pinstripe like Scarface. It's not a long stretch to write off Chick and Stew as having been bombarded with sports commentary or Nash stuffed with adderall and watching a little too much.
>Dingodile
>Ugly
That I can handle. It's shit like the random village of bunnies and the walrus that bugs me.
Also the school of evil. I feel like that's part of what made Cortex a joke rather than a villain
I'm not saying Nintendo always makes decisions that everyone likes, my point is that generally they keep to really high quality control standards. I would imagine that if they remade Crash they wouldn't literally change enemy designs and graphical styles, and wouldn't introduce a load of easy glitches into the game.
What says they aren't mutated animals to begin with?
Who the fuck is N. Trance
>random village of bunnies and the walrus
>School of evil
It's hard to put my finger on why this sort of shit just doesn't fit Crash at all. Crash may be cartoony but he was never generic.
He was unique. Why did developers insist on adding loads of generic cartoony fluff to the IP? it's so sad.
The only beings mutating animals in the first place are Cortex and Brio. And if a mutant was a product of their tampering, they would've also been subjected to brainwashing (either successful or unsuccessful) shortly thereafter.
In Mind over Mutant the entire plot is around getting mind control helmets onto the population, a population that Cortex should already have brainwashed...aside from the bandicoots. So it just winds up being a less-serious retelling of Crash N-Tranced
>literally change enemy designs
Yeah, it's not like they've done THAT before
Agreed. Flynn has better range but lacks O'Brian's anger and frustration.
These images are false. Coco is canon into short weird nerds
To add to this, there's stuff like this in the N Sane Trilogy. Most obvious example being the small details about Crash. He pulls gems out of his ass, chokes them up, pulls idiotic expressions.
In the originals, yes, he was goofy. But he was also super simple and not flanderised. I think one of the original devs put it best when they described original Crash as 'ironic'. He would always look kind of scared and shocked.
Because they didn't know what else to do with it probably. And they probably didn't give a fuck about the original intent in a lot of places.
N. Tropy's buddy from the 5th dimension
You can probably make a continuity fix about this, but don't think anyone cares enough to fix it. At least a few of the designs for them were neat, even if off-theme.
They wanted to introduce Nina in a way that felt organic. Why the fuck would a little girl suddenly join the ranks of Dr. Neo Cortex?
Because of a convenient asspull in the plot that somehow makes Nina the only one able to repair the Psychotron despite Cortex being the one that actually made it and also having a fucking physicist/mechanic as a partner.
To be fair though, Nintendo had already been naturally progressing the designs of enemies and characters by the release of 64DS. It wasn't just a sudden shift. In In 64DS, they used newly established designs.
Though this admittedly doesn't include Scuttlebug, who's changed design first appeared in DS, but that's one specific enemy and not a whole game's worth.
Meanwhile in N. Sane, everything in the fucking game has a radically new design, not because of a progression beforehand, but because VV decided 'fuck it, we need to modernise Crash and not truly pay homage to his roots'.
Which is dumb. Scuttlebug was an expression of 3D model and got turned into a generic cartoon spider.
In the context of Twinsanity Nina's introduction was fine imo. The game was already full on saturday morning goofball antics and very far removed from what Crash originally was so any random shit they decided to throw in worked I guess.
Twinsanity was actually kind of comfy honestly, as much as I don't really dig the style of it compared to old Crash.
>game where everyone of cortex's associates are mad at him and turned on him for some mythical treasure
>gee why didnt cortex ask his partner
I agree that the school is a bit silly but if you pay attention you'd understand why they had to go grab Nina
Well like I said, it's one enemy, and an enemy using a flat marble image as its body would probably look a tad out of date in a more modern looking Mario game.
I honestly think if Scutt made an appearance post 64 but pre 64DS he still would have been redesigned. It was inevitable. I mean look at his old design. I agree it's kino but, it's kind of goofy and dated looking.
Yeah, I don't know why they thought it was necessary in the first place honestly.
My daught...er, niece!
>no tawna
what the fuck
Arguing that that was the only solution is a bit silly. They could have just written the story so that one of his associates... isn't mad at him? A much, much simpler fix. There're a million ways the plot could have panned out.
Crash Boom Bang was the only game she was playable, and that game is on the bad end of mediocre to bad games while the IP bounced around.

>cut ties with Cortex by the 2nd game

>was only really working with Cortex because Uka Uka made him
>N.Gin
>in WOC he was feeling iffy about fighting crash the 4th time even going as far as to say he's unbeatable
It makes sense hell Dingodile was willing to flip on Cortex for some treasure and Cortex made him.
They probably could've introduced Nina a different way but the foundation for his associates turning on him was there
>that comic of Coco losing it over Tawna's tits
>caring about what's canon in a kart racing game
here's your (you) retard
Go on
We are waiting
For all its failings, using Nina in Crash of the Titans to backstab Cortex was a pretty great move. Then they decided to do the exact same thing but backstabbing Uka Uka in Mind over Mutant and it became apparent that their writers got lazy in a lot of places if it wasn't already obvious enough.

If Crash Bandicoot's origin was a mockery of the popularity of animal mascots and mutants in the 90s, showing it as a terrifying and painful existence, but no longer has the cultural meaning and became indistinct then does that mean Crash is Zombie Simpsons?
that drawl
I can't remember a single fucking thing about Titans honestly. Left no impression whatsoever.
That was never the intention.
Mario was Fleischer Bros.
Sonic was Disney.
Crash was Tex Avery.
Not saying it didn't make sense I'm just saying that it wasn't the only solution. It's fiction and It's nu-Crash, it wouldn't be impossible to write the plot differently or bring back old villains for Cortex.
Hell in WoC, Cortex is miraculously back to scheming with his associates despite being sent back in time in Crash 3. Continuity isn't exactly the biggest factor here.
Which is a shame imo.
the original crash trilogy had a really cool link between each game.
Nice. Even better if it’s a unlock of some kind.
It doesn't have enough wolves with a boner for the human women.
You just know that role would fall to Pinstripe if he had stuck around more.
I'll give you a rundown
>AkuAku is Grim
>They gave Crash tattoos and sucked the soul out of the crash dance
>Crunch is still Mr. T
>N. Gin doom doom doom doom doom
>Weird redesigns all around
>What the fuck did they do to Tiny!?
>Nina got redesigned to be better and replaces Cortex as the villain
>Story starts off with Cortex kidnapping Coco and Nina brainwashes Coco to build an island-destroying robot or something for her
>Why the fuck did they thing it was okay to make Crash talk?
Gameplay wise it was a mediocre beat-em-up with platforming elements
Probably for the best that people don't remember anything about Radical-era Crash
Pretty sure they were forced to create a sequel to COTT which is a shame the concept art for Crash Landed is amazing and could've been great
They could've brought back old villains for sure but that would require an entire script rewrite/changing the entire concept of the game and those poor dudes were already rushed for time. They tried something new which is way better than just harping on the old good stuff even if sometimes it didnt work.
>Cortex and N.Tropy age until they are adults
>Build a new single-use time twister machine
>Travel back in time to shortly after they were trapped in the collapsed time twister so they can continue where they left off
fuck if I know, CTR already broke that canon apart.
Guess it depends how they wrote the script. I just mean in theory the whole thing could have been different from the start and involve Cortex with an old associate,
I honestly don't mind Nina though, I'm just being a petty bitch for some reason.
Was she actually his niece or daughter I can't remember.
Oh shit I remember Tyson Tiny now, guess there was a reason I forgot.
I'm sorry for opening an old wound.
We don’t know for sure, but I think she’s actually his daughter.
His model is pretty ugly but then
he looks just fine in concept art. Cute, even.
I mean Nina didn't need to be a schoolgirl in the first place. Cortex had a habit of teaming up with rejects from society since he's one of them. Brio he's a childhood friend and worldwide criminal terrorist with, Gin was left betrayed by his superiors, and Tropy was called in by Uka-Uka himself so Cortex didn't get a say in the matter.
Nina very well could've been another social reject that simply happened to be a young woman instead of shoehorning in a family relationship.
Also the Daughter/Niece joke is a remnant from how the character designer never really did get that detail clear when she was drafted. She was originally Cortex's daughter which just blows open the question of "Who the hell did Cortex fuck?" as well as a lot of parenting questions that have no answers.
Kind of hope they do this now if they make a new game.
What are the chances we get alts based on the new crash designs from the Titan games
I like the idea of Nina just being some random person Neo Cortex found but at the same time I enjoy that layer Nina gives to Cortex, both positive and negative. I assume in this hypothetical she'd already have her bionic hands because I dont see Cortex just giving a random stranger metal clamps.
>He would always look kind of scared and shocked.
True. Crash Bandicoot always reminded me of Courage the Cowardly Dog-type character in that while they were both slightly eccentric, they were still fazed by all of the dangers and craziness that surrounded them.
>new
Titans is over 10 years old
>All these zoomer skins and cosmetic shit
I'm just gonna pick crash with his default look, whatever kart looks closest to a kart from the original game, and I'm gonna shit ok zoomer faggots online. I cannot fucking wait
No you stupid faggot.
>and I'm gonna shit ok zoomer faggots
I don't imagine why zoomers wouldn't be ok that you're gonna take a shit, we all have to.
If they add in Nina, Von Clutch, Pasadena, obj_motherfucker, Tawna, Brio, Koala Kong, the Evil Twins and Ratcicle I will give the game a 10/10
Can someone redpill me on when customization became a zoomer meme?
Probably those racing games like Gran Turismo.
When games realised zoomers will spend a shit ton of money in order to look "cool". (I realise CTR won't have microtransactions, but my point still stands). See tf2 csgo mobas overwatch rocket league etc. Used to be you just played your character. Now so many games ad cosmetic shit. It's not a terrible thing, but I don't wanna be racing against people wearing crazy retarded outfits, I just want the game to look like a kart racer. Any hope of recapturing the look/feel of the original is now gone.
Zoomer is just the new insult for "person I don't like". Just like onions or cuck before it.
Boomer also gets used as "old person". Wonder what Generation X feels like going under the radar.

Penta penguin isn't confirmed you retard
The CSS seems to have room for 30 characters and as of now 25 have been confirmed. That leaves room for Penta and 4 others. That could either be von clutch, pasedina, Yaya and Spyro, or it could be brio, Moe, koala Kong, and Tawna. Honestly I'd prefer the latter.
Of course, there could always be more than 30.
I like n.gin, also like pinstripe a lot. But I just want people to know I'm there to do business, not to fuck around and look retarded. I think the design of the original kart looks pretty good here.
I didn't see much of a desire to play this as I feel the original Crash four game trilogy still holds up on all fronts. But with them adding in all the extra characters and races, it's practically a new game rather than a half-baked remake where I criticize everyone for having a different voice actor this time. I'm certainly more interested than I was a while back.
I wonder if it'll have anything to do with adventure mode.
>Able to play adventure mode as a boss character
>Same character boss race still there but they use recolor skin
There's gonna be a future frenzy stage right?

I mean, they could ditch the hugging animals backstory and just have had nina been a social reject with metal fucking hands
there doesn't need to be an elaborate backstory, just a sentence or two and you're done. N. Gin's entire backstory was kept short and simple.
A Dr. N. Snare would have worked just fine with metal deathgrip hands. A prosthetic gone wrong...or right.
Android Alley is close enough, especially based on the new trailer.
>All CTR and CNK characters are confirmed several times
>a list that states the categories "include" the following rather than limiting themselves solely to those listed
>hurr penta isn't confirmed
original karts look fantastic in this game
do we know if each character keeps their OG kart color from the original?
I don't really keep up with crash "lore" or whatever.
Did N. Bryo pull a King Dedede or is he still a villain?
A big part of the OT was that it was a goofy, crazy world, but it had internal logic
There were super smart animals because Cortex MADE them. They were supposed to be soldiers so they were all strong, smart, and or violent.
Cortex did this because the world cast him aside. He didn't set out to be evil, rejection and abuse drove him insane with hatred.
Heck, every scientist had a field of specialty. That was pretty damn neat. Brio had genetics, N. Gin had rockets, Tropy had chronolgy. Giving Cortex a degree in evil is just retarded
From what we've seen so far, yes. OG colors can also be applied to all karts too. Even the silver pipes on the classic kart can be changed.
if you only look at trilogy canon (which you should) he stopped being a villain after the first game
he sends the first three bosses after you in crash 2 but only because crash is helping cortex
He worked with Cortex in Crash of the Titans, but that game is shitty and dumb and best ignored.
>Togepi? Marrill? Lugia? What are these retarded new things? They're certainly not Pokemon!
...
so are all these cosmetics going to cost hundreds of dollars in microtransactions, or are these, god fucking forbid, unlockable?
>Any hope of recapturing the look/feel of the original is now gone
you were never going to recapture the look of the original
so much of the pure, raw SOUL from ps1 games came from the shitty low poly graphics and tech constraints, and in a world without those you can do nothing but approximate what it would have looked like with modern tech
there's been so so many remakes of ps1 games now, and every single time we go through this same song and dance. it's just not possible to bottle up that SOUL and pour it over a modern game
as for the feel, i think all reports so far are that it plays fantastically
Correct. There's a reason why gen 1 still gets all of the attention and references. Still the king.
Unlockable. Beenox are based and actually care about making their fans happy
I did like the idea of N. Gin going out on his own and becoming his own man. The later versions (even NST) are too sycophantic.
Nina works fine without any introduction. Just keep her as she was on paper before the retools: A scary little girl with no grasp of her own strength or limitations. You don't have to write a saga about it, just enough to understand another hapless victim of Cortex's twisted science.
Wouldn't Activision pull what Square-enix pulled with Mankind Divided and awkwardly add microtransactions at the last minute or behind developers backs?
>Beenox are based and actually care about making their fans happy
then where's my brio man
i guarantee you not a single fucking person on this planet was like "You know who I want in CTR? BIG FUCKING NORM"
We dont know if you can buy wumpa coins, but you definitely can unlock them via playing the game.
This is late as fuck but did the original game have this? I was a kid back then and ESL so wouldn't have known at the time.
There's still a month till the game comes out, he's probably a secret character they won't show off until later
Yes. Also both the Accel and All around are both called intermediate for some retarded reason.
Huh, interesting. Didn't know the game had that kind of depth to it, I always just picked Crash.
Beginner = Handling
Intermediate = Acceleration or All Around
Advanced = Speed
He's fucking in
I get the feeling. I just picked Pent cause I liked Penguins.
>Nina works fine without any introduction. Just keep her as she was on paper before the retools: A scary little girl with no grasp of her own strength or limitations. You don't have to write a saga about it, just enough to understand another hapless victim of Cortex's twisted science.
again, you're introducing the question of why the fuck is a child even within proximity of a worldwide criminal that's hiding on a remote island that's far away enough from civilization that the FBI, CIA, KGB, and everything in-between aren't able to track him.
if nina were a young adult woman with basically the exact same mannerisms and backstory aside from the family relation bit, it'd work without question because she'd have an implicit backstory of being driven away from society and turn to evil out of scorn like N.Gin was. But since she's related, now you have to answer all these fucking questions and it just comes off like lazy cartoon writing where you shove in a new obscure family member to a show (other than a character having a baby) to try to keep things "interesting."
Nina as a concept works on its own. Nina as a youth relative doesn't work without support. See where I'm getting at?
>i guarantee you not a single fucking person on this planet was like "You know who I want in CTR? BIG FUCKING NORM"
Speak for yourself, pal
>Cortex is such a cunt not even the other villains like him
I like that actually.
user, this is Crash Bandicoot. We can only go so deep without tripping on the half-dingo half-crocodile with a flamethrower hunting penguins in the arctic before asking ourselves who gives a crap about realism.
Not just any arctic. The fucking Ice Age.
WITH A TIME MACHINE, NO LESS.
They better not have fucked up my Accel stats.
What is this thread about?
Pesky little earth slugs thinking they know what "fast" is!
Cartoon bandicoot girls.
Bandicootits.
I dread to see if there are going to be separate, time limited christmas skins.
CTR threads always end up becoming general discussions about the Crash franchise, its history, and potential future. Extremely comfy.
it's not about realism, it's about plausible deniability behind a character's motivation/backstory
You can believe a failed attempt at brainwashing a mutant making it defect and smash into everything and anything
You can believe a loyal sadistic mutant armed with a flamethrower ready to torch anything that moves
You can believe a prideful right-hand man being left behind willing to betray his former partner's latest scheme
You can believe traveling through time because of a time machine
You can believe rejects from society not having contact with the outside world
It's a lot harder to believe that with all of this already set up and laid out, that you can just happen to conveniently have a family member join because ???
There are a lot of conveniences pulled, such as Cortex landing right in a cave with a master crystal or the Super Cortex Vortex freeing Uka-Uka, but Nina is such a contrived convenience that it's beyond what's even remotely acceptable with cartoon logic.
Just because cartoons and videogames are marketed for kids doesn't mean that they don't deserve a baseline minimum of quality.
>Imma take this child and make it my own
As I guy who only played the first 2 games forever ago I love it.
>Extremely comfy.
Except when anons start the Coco/Tawna lewd posting and the thread is deleted.
Building onto this, if Nina were part of the series from the onset there'd be no problem because she would've been a part of the formula to begin with.
The reason her abject inclusion is contrived is because you're expecting anyone to believe that a man that has been off the grid for a minimum of 10 years (5 years spent from acquiring the island to the start of Crash 1, 1 year jump in Crash 2 opening, a 3 year jump from WoC to Twinsanity that was spent frozen in a block of ice, plus any other time that isn't explicitly stated such as fucking off to space after crash 2 or being trapped in time at the end of crash 3) is somehow able to maintain contact with a niece that is no older than 15 through the whole ordeal, and also knows what boarding school she goes to.
You don't just drop this shit and expect everyone to just shrug their shoulders and be okay with it.
Well it's only fair as that was the ultimate reward in CTR itself

Why Rayman?
We better get Evil Coco skin or we will riot.
what
PS1 classics having a poker night, with a shit list darts on their enemies in the back.
>Soundtrack by Mutato Muzika - Mark Mothersbaugh
Man Devo really cucked poor Josh Mancell quite a bit back in the Naughty Dog days.
Wanna know how Nina was made? Time Travel.
But Rayman was a multiplat whore since the beginning. Hell, the Jaguar was the first console it came out on.
Bam. You solved it forever.
>Blue skin
now hold on a tic
That scrapbook was such a satisfying reward. I especially loved the sweet artwork for all the environments as a kid.
Would you?
Eh, maybe. Josh's name still shows up in all the game credits proper.
Also growing up I had no idea what Mutato Muzika actually was and thought it was a Japanese guy on the staff who made the music, before thinking later it was a band.
It's reported by faggots narcs like you
I hate how simple you made it but that still works way better than the official lore does.
If anything you're helping my stance by showing just how easy it is to handwave how contrived her introduction was by giving her a really simple backstory and severing any familial ties.
I'm still a fan of her simply being an adult, on her own volition, having been recruited because you don't really even need to explain even as much as you did since there wouldn't be anything to handwave to begin with.
>no pasadena
Cringe and droppedpilled
Why do the trophy bandicoot girls exist?
She's fucking dead bro.
Lol I had no idea what Mutato Muzika was either. The same goes for Charles Zembillas and his old company, The American Exitus.
Still even in the credits, Josh's name always came after Mothersbaugh's despite him doing all of the actual composition work. I guess those are the terms when you rent out someone else's studio space.

>Wanna
because n. brio had to choose between making a high power go-kart or project trophy girls
And so is my hype for this game with it.
Fucking travesty.
That crash statue is pretty awesome. Wish the ingame model was closer to that.
It feels so good to be back in business Crashbros. A few years back I had accepted that he was gone for good and now we're here.
You most likely wont get that a statue of that quality. Just some chepa plastic thing molded in a faulty chinese 3D printer.
VELO
Also, a lot of the new characters being introduced are literally just a case of "I know a guy" and it works because you never have to question how they know that guy, just that alone explains all that's needed.
>N. Gin happened to be on-call when Cortex wanted a space station and super cortex vortex
>N.Tropy was recruited by Uka-Uka to correct Cortex's failings
>N.Trance gets recruited by N.Tropy specifically to brainwash the bandicoots
All of the mutants are simply byproducts of making of the cortex commandos so their presence is already explained too.
Then there's nina, who's still in the "I know a guy" realm but it's way too forced. Hell, even if the academy of evil was replaced with simply going to recruit Nina to help with a specific task (other than fixing a machine Cortex built himself), it would've worked fine too.
I want that hat because I work in a kitchen and I like showing off what an epic gamer I am at work.
Where the FUCK is Crash's biker outfit.
Guys what if __Competitive CTR__
Look at this pimp man... He got his rings on, he got his chain on, he even got his collar turnt up
Big Velo should be the only Velo
>Cortex finally gets his own game
>post-Crash 3, follows the "young" doctor as he battles Tropy across spacetime, participating events to repair the series' canon
>N. Trance gets a proper introduction as Tropy's right-hand
>travel back in time to meet Uka Uka and Aku Aku in their human forms
>cause the Chernobyl disaster with Brio
>sabotage the rocket that began N. Gin's transformation into a cyborg
>Nash's race also appears, responsible for the underwater civilization from Warped
>Nina is from a world where Cortex's family never died in a carnival explosion, is adopted by the doctor post-credits
He actually is the only Velo in the GBA version, the reveal is only done in consoles.
I'm fine with both, but I hope fake velo will be playable. Even if he's just an advanced character instead of having perfect stats.
Alright faggots,
Post your main
rocket man reporting in
Take a guess.
WHERE IS SHE, BEENOX
So how shit is the netcode going to be?
I imagine they'd put zero effort into the switch port's online play. PC port fucking when
This reminded me Spyro is most likely gonna be here too.
Dingodile
N. Tropy
Pinstripe
Bosses from Crash 1-3 really
I wouldn't count on it, we still haven't gotten the Spyro trilogy on PC
lol what disappointing ending the gba version has. Velo seems like a great upstanding guy too.
I just like this look for crash a lot.
N.Gin for Accel
Ripper Roo for Beginner
Koala Kong for Advanced
Nina should be the robotics specialist and a transhumanist weirdo. It explains her hands
>You win!
>So we can go home?
>HA HA no now YOU rule the galactic empire!
>Hmmm
>Let's go home
>Ha ha ha WHAT A WACKY ADVENTURE
Poetry, 10/10 deserves every Oscar
You're not missing out on much there.
I liked how anticlimatic it was, Velo being fine with them just leaving was also nice.
>robotics specialist
N. Gin exists, although admittedly he's more of a ballistics and aerospace guy his mechs are always amazing
Yeah I'm disappointed we didn't get any good sfm or blender stuff
Maybe so, but it shows activision gave up on porting these games to PC after Crash trilogy, which means never ever for CTR
Totally if i had the money
Dingodile and Crunch
A white custom kart such as pic related with the new future time lord N. Tropy. It's the only choice for me. Aesthetics matter quite a bit.
Tiny or Tropy for Advanced
Pinstripe for Accel
A specialty of simply having a deathgrip can itself work itself out if the problem you have is insubordination and your followers need a little convincing.
Nina would've worked as a means of Cortex trying to get control over his henchmen back.
Yeah, N. Gin always struck me as more rockets and such
I love how he refers to the events of the game as the "Galactic Circus".
>builds a space station
>builds tons of mechs
>is a physicist
>knowledgeable about ballistics and general weaponry
>also managed the wireless projection and understands enough about wireless communication to reclaim a hijacked signal
>those robots in crash 2 and crash 3 robotic lab assistants don't come from nowhere, so he's got robotics and simplistic AI down too
N.Gin is multitalented
Friendly reminder Crash is actually just a Fake Fake Crash
Then who is crash?
Willy the Wombat.
Crash is
Billy and Mandy in a Crash costume
We've hit bump limit.
You know what to do.
Fake Fake Crash
Lore-wise, N. Gin was a respected physicist in the defense industry before the accident that crippled him. He also built and designed the space station from 2.
He's got wicked piloting skills, too. Don't forget that.
I still think Nina works better as a kid, or at least a childish character. Cortex could use her to procure or subdue animal test subjects
>"there's nothing more cruel or pure than a child"
>Summer Themed
>TFW we could've gotten Swimsuit Coco if Sony wasn't being a douche.
We might
