Nintendo just released these guidelines around running a “community” tournament. In other words, an unlicensed tournament. Limiting the player cap to 200 (300 for online), no profit allowed, entry fees must be under $15 USD, must use Nintendo online servers (no Slippi), and some other stuff.
Not sure which major tournaments from this last year had a license and which didn’t, but I remember the Smash World Tour fiasco and Panda’s implosion. I know Hbox said he’s going to try to keep running Coinbox until Nintendo themselves tells him to stop in writing, but I wonder how this will affect other big TOs. How many of them are still trying to sneak under the radar unlicensed?
Honestly, it’s BS how Nintendo treats their competitive communities
I’ve given this a couple listens and it’s ok so far. Not an instant classic or anything, but it’s ok. I could see it growing on me over time. You can definitely tell this was cut from Vaxis 2 just by the instrumentation. I wonder if they finally cleared up some licensing issues with WB which is why we get an actual release of Deranged.
My main gripe with the song is the “I can be your joke tonight” motif. It’s just so similar to Toys and some of the other recent lines. Doesn’t really hit that hard and feels repetitive from a discography perspective more than just like the line is used too much in the song
