Yeah, this character sounds like a teenage wet dream, and not at all poorly represented in games.

I am way too unoriginal to think of game ideas, the only game in my head that probably will never get made is a new punch out for switch, but it is at least not impossible. I would like to see them do another game, similar to punch out 2009 but with a roster that looks something like this:

1) gabby Jay
2) piston hurricane
3) Masked Muscle
4) He ke kagore (I know I butchered that spelling)
5) Dragon Chan
6) Pizza Pasta
7) bob charlie
8) Mad clown
9) Mask X (who, when you knock his mask off is revealed to be bald bull)
10) Narcis Prince
11) Hoy Quarloe
12) Rick Bruiser
13) Nick Bruiser

Dream Fight: Mike Tyson
Bonus Fight: Mario or Bowser

Structured just like the wii punch out, but with all new boxers, complete with a title defense mode where everyone is ratcheted up to 1000 in difficulty.

And she's a psychiatrist.

I don't think a psychiatrist is the subject of many teenage wet dreams.

I used to literally dream Street Fighter Sequels with shockingly weird accuracy. The only thing thta hasn't been implimented was the Guilty Gear like shield.

I'd like to see a Punch out with not only every character there ever was, but the ability to play as other boxers. I have a blast playing all the Punch out games. The other day I was playing Super Punch out since it was just on Switch online.

Let's dream then:

Cereal Killers: General Mills vs. Kellogs (+others)
-It would basically be Smash Bros with cereal mascots. It would amuse me to no end. Bonus if they add bloody finishes to fit the title.

Another Zelda Metroidvania. I really like Zelda II; a modern 2d game in the same vein would be most welcome (with more magic options).

A randomized classic Final Fantasy game that has you choose any class combination at the outset. (classes would generally learn skills/magic as they level up, but each character is bound to that class for the whole game.
I just miss the magic of my FF1 playthroughs.

Cyber Empires (DOS/PC game), but with more than one map. Maybe let's you customize robot building for better cost and options.

Classic space shmup that builds levels to your own music tracks/mp3's.

That's all I have for now.


Punch-out that let's you use the other boxers does sound fun. I second that.

Seriously puddin?

Harley was an Intern Psychologist

My character is a Psychiatrist meaning she's a doctor and went to medical school and holds two doctorates. Her IQ is 170. How does any of that equate to typical Video game babe?

How would your character diagnose how pedantic you're getting?

You are correct, that is what DC says she is. Though I should say, you have to have a PhD to be a psychologist, too (Ask JT). Further, in the comics, she dabbled in pharmacology at times, which is something psychologists aren't trained or allowed to do, which suggests DC themselves don't really fully appreciate the difference between the two. And I am going to guess that the difference between the two plays zero role for your imaginary character in your imaginary game. Hot chick who is also really smart and who is snarky and irreverent is basically a complete and total trope, regardless of the actual details.

Just accept that your teen self was generating something that appealed to your teen self, and that you have now (hopefully) grown as a human being and can acknowledge that your teen self was likely pretty cringe-worthy in some regards, like many of our teenage selves, myself included.

And yet, here we all are, trying out darndest to hold into to the magic of our youth (or maybe I missed the point when I joined?).

I say keep that vision, even if others don't share it.
Does anyone really grow up anyway?
