New setup + collection update

So yeah... I know that I said I wouldn't make another one of these for a long time, but ya know, I ended up getting Wave 5 (and part of 6 for us americans) and thought that I may as well since you won't be seeing one of these for a whole 3 months (I think).

 

Speaking of Wave 5, I've customized Ganon and Palutena already. They were given some minor details and are hardly noticeable, so I haven't put up pics of them.

 

Anyway, I'll put the nicknames section here like normal...

 

LAST UPDATED: 7/28

 

NEW ARRIVALS: Wii Fit, Olimar,

 

//////////////////

Kirby - Kitby

 

The nickname originated from when I first got on flickr. Deku Scrubster pointed out that I misspelled Kirby's name, turns out, this is what happened.

 

Liked it ever since.

//////////////

Fox - Speedster

 

He's fast, what else can I say? I can hardly keep up with the dude. You could almost say he's fantastic.... (EH?!?!?)

/////////////////////

Mario - Madio

 

Still a pun off the original name.

///////////////////

Donkey Kong - Konkey Dong

 

My Sis mispronounced his name one day and it got the whole family a laughin'. I've loved the name ever since.

////////////////////

Pikachu - Spark

 

He has electricity. 'nuff said.

///////////////////

Link - SirCourage

 

Simple enough, I thought this gave him a more 'knightly' attitude.

///////////////////

Peach - Peech

 

Help me plz, I have no idea what to name her.

///////////////////

Zelda - WisdomWiz

 

Can you see the trend I have going here? It'll probably be Powerhouse with Ganondorf (spoiler alert).

////////////////////

Samus - Huntress

 

Since she's also a bounty hunter, I thought this suited her pretty well. Also a homage to the DC superhero of the same name.

/////////////////

Luigi - Weegee

 

Weeeeeeeeeeeeg.

/////////////////////

Yoshi - Demolisher

 

Nothing much here, just thought it sounded cool and ya know, made his appetite stick out more.

//////////////////////

Diddy Kong - TheMangler

 

Monkey Flip.

 

Bruh.

///////////////////////

Little Mac - MegatonMac

 

Sakurai himself did say that his smashes hit at "megaton" levels... That's pretty strong...

/////////////////////

Marth - Mars

 

Original translation of Marth's name into the short lived anime. Thought it sounded cool as well.

////////////////////

Captain Falcon - Turbo

 

In the F-Zero games, you go at mind bending speeds. I figured this well represented his franchise and Falcon's character really well.

///////////////////////

Pit - Captain OPG

 

Captain of Palutena's Guard.

 

Pretty much the long and short of the name given to him in the Punch Out! boxing stage.

 

I find it incredibly interesting how I managed to give Pit and Dark Pit different playstyles - Pit just so happens to be more defensive and ground based than his gloomy counterpart.

//////////////////////

Bowser - Bruzer

 

Pun off the original name as well as referencing his hard-hitting attacks.

///////////////////////////

Toon Link - LooneyLink

 

Toon Link's name in other languages.

////////////////////////

Lucario - Hound

 

Pretty much me thinking he looks a lot like a dog.

////////////////////

Rosalina - Star Queen

 

A better name I came up with. She spends most of her time in space, so why not?

 

(For those of you who don't know, her original name was Rosielina)

//////////////////

Sheik - Illusive

 

This nickname both sounds cool and has reminds me of how mysterious and quick she(?) is.

 

Probably one of my favorites.

///////////////////////////

Ike - Brawn

 

He's really strong.

 

'nuff said.

/////////////////////////

Sonic - The Blur

 

He's really fast.

 

'nuff said.

///////////////////////

Shulk - Swift

 

Thought this described his playstyle pretty well. I also think the name is cool in general.

//////////////////////////

King Dedede - MonarchDDD

 

Fun Fact: "monarch" is another word for "king".

 

Google told me so.

////////////////////////////

Mega Man - Android87

 

This both references his human looks and his date of birth in 1987.

 

FNaF anyone?

///////////////////////

Meta Knight - Hawk

 

What can I say? I trained him to stay in the air and swoop down when he needs to. Plus it sounds pretty intimidating!

//////////////////////

Gold Mario - Goldio

 

With great power comes great stupidity... A line that Gold Mario goes by. Unlike the rest of amiibo I own, Goldio is customized. It's to the point that his attack power and speed are insanely high.

 

However, with all the power and speed comes incredibly awkward A.I. and held back defensive capabilities. He's definitely a kick from normal Madio though.

///////////////////////////

Villager - Major Fear

 

The eyes... THE EYES!!!

//////////////////////////

Wario - Scoundrel

 

....

 

WAHAHAHHAHHAAHHAAA

//////////////////////////

Lucina - Lukina

 

Lucina's name in another language. Korean I believe.

/////////////////////////

Robin - Mr.Enchant

 

Minecraft reference... Plus it gave him a sense of maturity while also showing off the fact he has magic that grows more powerful.

///////////////////////////

Charizard - Heat Wave

 

One of my little bro's robot toys are named this. Personally, I think the name was pretty cool and thought "why not?"

//////////////////////////////

Ness - PsychicKid

 

I could really use some suggestions for this one. I couldn't think of anything else...

//////////////////////////////

Pac-Man - Gobbler

 

NOM-NO....uh I mean WAKKA-WAKKA-WAKKA-WAKKA

//////////////////////////////

Jigglypuff - Pigglywuff

 

What? I really like Jigglypuff's name. I didn't wanna change it all that much....

///////////////////////////

Ganondorf - Powerhouse

 

He shatters my shield instantly, how can I not give him this name?

///////////////////////////

Dark Pit - Dark Wings

 

I originally wanted to do something along the lines of "gloomy double" but I didn't have enough space, so he sounds like chicken wings instead :P

 

Dark Pit is more offensive and air based than normal Pit. It's pretty cool how he's usually the one to throw the first punch. I find it very entertaining when they fight just because even though they're fundamentally the same character, their playstyles are different enough to make every match interesting. I might have to upload a match sometime to show you what I mean.

///////////////////////////

Palutena - Lightning

 

Both because she is the Goddess of Light in the games and as homage to the Final Fantasy character.

//////////////////////////

Zero Suit Samus - Elastica

 

I heard she had enchanted DNA or something like that? Also a Brawl in The Family comic inspired me on this one. (If you don't know what 'BiTF' is, get out.)

//////////////////////////

Wii Fit Trainer - Miss Fit

 

Eh

/////////////////////////

Olimar - TBA

//////////////////////

--------

 

 

P.S. All the amiibo are in order from which I acquired them.

 

 

Uh, toodles!
