That's true if you go on Fire Emblem boards. I haven't really noticed it on board 8, though.


I'm trying to think of the internet in general here, not just Board 8.

I remember visiting the Melee section when Brawl came out on Smashboards.

Terrible, TERRIBLE decision...

Surprisingly, Link fanboys aren't really annoying. I suppose that comes with the territory of being a heartless automoton !


"heartless automaton" is such a perfect way to describe Link.

And Link is one of my favorite characters!

4. Super Smash Brothers

A million times yes.

Also, apparently Dragon Quest fanboys on the day they lost to Smash Bros.

And River City Ransom fanboys the day it lost to Pong.

I consider myself a diehard Sonic *and* FE fanboy. Maybe it's a good thing I don't interact with the fanbase...

Heartless automaton......it fits Link somehow, even though he has more heart than any character in this contest except Crono!

I have no idea what happened that day with DQ. They seem to be nice guys most of the time!

I'm conflicted between who I want to succeed myself. I want Samus > Snake, yet I want to see Pikachu and Shepard dominate the x-stats.

It's a tough situation.

The Power Hour ends with a 20 minute stall. Not what Snake fans wanted to see, and now they MUST rely on rallying or strange trends, because Cloud crushes this easily following traditional trends.

And the Power Hour essentially ends in a long stall.

Back to the fanboy discussion, do Anti-JRPG fanboys count? I don't mean the people who just don't like the genre, because well, I imagine nearly everyone just doesn't like a few genres. I mean the ones who just blast it as a totally irrelevant medium that is single-handedly killing the industry or something and has no redeeming qualities.

Unhappiest, unpleasable fanbase in existence. They're only below Sonic because they don't shower people with furry porn along the way.


If Sonic fanboys shower people with furry porn, I don't see why FE fanboys wouldn't. Are the Laguz acceptable since they're only 10% furry?

There's something to be said for the Fire Emblem fanbase - we translated four of our games into English because Nintendo didn't. That takes some major dedication for such a small series saleswise.

I generally don't like to visit FE boards, though. <_<
