People talk a lot about Nick hiring an underground cartoonist to make Invader Zim because of his comic with "Homicidal Maniac" in the title, but not about the main protagonists of Catscratch originating from a dystopian mecha battle comic.

I think a lot of times people don't consider the length of remixes when submitting them to creation threads - like I feel 3/4 minutes or so is fine, but a six minute long song or a 5 minute medley that lingers on its first song for a minute? Not so much.
I think a Cappy throw would be really cool as an aesthetic change for Mario's cape, where Mario just spins Cappy around him like his side taunt, but not as anything beyond that - though a projectile that reflects other projectiles or can be used as a spring could be pretty fun for a less conventional character.
Sonic is in a really weird situation with Smash because if he got a second rep it'd probably be as confusing for Japanese fans as Sonic not having a second rep is for Western fans.
I think Bub & Bob in Smash should be alts and not a duo, mostly because the bubble trapping mechanic combined with a climber duo would be hell to fight.
I would unironically like Talking Tom as an Assist Trophy in Smash - can't really see him as a fighter though, unless the cartoon version has more to work with I don't know about.
Clippy in a Microsoft crossover is kinda weird because he would by all accounts fill the "wacky joke" criteria, but he's also an extremely obvious character it'd be a complete disservice to make the game without - makes it really hard to decide when in the pre-release cycle he should be revealed and how.
Let's take the moment to appreciate how much effort he puts into his content for us.Great job
WE ARE GOING TO BEA
AT YOU TO DEATH
I find it funny how every Vietnamese beef restaurant has the Laughing Cow cheese logo on it, like it isn't even a corporate logo anymore, just a universal symbol for a product it wasn't even intended to promote
I feel a trailer for an assist promotion that references the character's previous status as an AT would only work for Waluigi and maybe Sukapon or Dr. Kawashima. Everyone else it'd be kind of an an injustice to.
The Prehistorik Man box art really annoys me - they made this utterly breathtaking prehistoric scene, but then just had to shove in an image of the exact same character already on the art with sunglasses and sneakers that don't even attempt to look prehistoric leaning on the age rating that he's nowhere near.
I feel that "Microsoft Smash" and "Sega Smash" rosters often tend to just be Rare and Sonic rosters made by people who have never once considered the posibility of a non-crossover platform fighter.
It's kind of surprising how many times Wart has been portrayed as a friendly or otherwise non-malicious figure - like for any other kid friendly villain or rival it would be practically inevitable (you don't really get Tom & Jerry T-shirts where they're angrily grimacing at one another) - but for Wart they may as well be a majority of his appearances.

OK, maybe that last one isn't exactly as protagonistic as the others...
I made a cartoons-only Multiversus roster yesterday

and just now I decided to modify it a tiny bit, and for the fun of it I kinda want to go through the thought process of these 5 character changes
![]()
- Rosie: George provides pretty good moveset potential as a man of the future, but Rosie is a robotic maid - there aren't any robots on the roster (though there are tech users), and a maid fighter sounds extremely fun. Additionally she's an extra female fighter.
- Wakko alone: The Warners are slapstick team players and this is already a team game. The PPGs already have a trio tag-team mechanic and fit it way better thanks to their small size and flight abilities. Wakko was chosen since he has the most running gags of his own. (and is also my favourite)
- Ed, Edd, n' Eddy as a trio: The Eds are known to bicker and fight, which makes them a little more unique from the PPGs compared to the Warners, while having roughly the same size (and an extra member) distinguishes them from Tom & Jerry - that being said if this were just CN I'd want the Eds to be seperate
- Carl: I have never seen Aqua Teen so there may be something I'm missing, but the main 3 characters all strike me as super hard to adapt into a fighting game body-wise - but not in the fun way. Frylock's arms come out his head, Master Shake has stubby hands and no arms, and Meatwad is... a meatball.
- Pim alone: I felt I needed another small-bodied fighter, and in a fighting context being a duo wouldn't provide as much to the Smiling Friends as it would the other duos and trios in the game
When I was first making the roster I was also considering Baba Louie instead of Quick Draw McGraw for memes' sake, but an out-of-context voice clip from a radio show that most people don't even realise is tied to the character doesn't exactly give as much to work with as a Dragon Ball parody. I also had planned to include McWolf, but realised that outside of his role in Red Hot Riding Hood he's a pretty forgettable generic cartoon villain so I opted for the subject of his awooga-ing herself instead.
Even though the song jobs for the Mario Smash threads have been really hard to find a good system for, the songlists thus far have been really good - the only song I have any misgivings about the inclusion of is World Bowser for Bowser's Castle, not because it's a bad song but just because I feel it's not fit for this specific stage. That being said, I feel we'll eventually add a stage it's more fit for that song to go on. (speaking of which, I've gotta start documenting which stages and songs were added when so I can say which songs can be moved over to which stages)
If I were making Melee, I would've removed the boat portion of Rainbow Cruise and called it "Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts" then let Yoshi's Island be a Mario stage.
the good timeline

Mario Tennis Aces has the best Mario roster in recent memory IMO.
I like to think the new dragon Pokémon is Applin's Darwinian evolution.
The reason you only see Bigfoot recorded on shaky, low quality cameras is because he's an avid supporter of artists in poverty.
Getting mixed messages here - any double negatives I'm glossing over? Or is that the point?
I was looking up Fox Interactive Games to find out what gaming IPs Disney owns, I found out they released a series of sports games called "Actua" - which is likely the most savage(ly stupid) name a game franchise has been christened with.
The best Game/Film/Food Theory videos are the ones where MatPat doesn't even make theories and just recounts obscure facts with a bit of speculation thrown in - his Finding Nemo lawsuit video and the majority of Food Theory's videos for example.
On the Mario Smash thread we're submitting more reskinned stages and multiplayer modes - as well as voting on Wario's alternate costumes. If you have an idea for an alternate look for Peach's Castle 64; Figure-8 Circuit; or Golden Plains, now's your chance!
SmashBoards has created: Super Mario Smash Bros!
Music voting has closed for Cap Kingdom and Luigi's Mansion Cap Kingdom's tracks are two remixes of Bonneton, Horror Land, and Crescent Moon Village Luigi's Mansion has GCN/DS Luigi's Mansion locked in, but behind it a mega-draw of 5 songs - therefore I will be doing another elimination poll...

A retro DOS Doom stage would be so cool in Smash, but I heavily doubt they'd do that until Doomguy is a veteran getting his second stage.
I haven't seen much talk about NFTs in a while.
Good outcome: Corporations have figured out people don't like them
Bad outcome: I've become desensitized
Worst outcome: Corporations are rebranding NFTs to sneak them under our noses
One gimmick I think would be super cool in a platform fighter is a fighter who can be customised on on the fly - like, press Down B and a small menu pops up to switch your Up, Side or Neutral B individually as opposed to a regular stance fighter.
oh god damn it the new pokemon game is open world
what's he doing he's making the wrong face
pokemon scarlet overkill
Trying to get the music jobs in Mario Smash Bros. to work has been hell - hopefully lumping submissions as lists to be voted on will help.
I don't think the negotiations required to get Doug in NASB would be as steep as people say, but they wouldn't really be worth it either.
I think it's very likely that 7 Grand Dad will be referenced in some form if Fred Flintstone gets into Multiversus, but it won't be his entire moveset like Shaggy's memes are - the whole Vinesauce/SiIvaGunner stuff, while not exactly "underground" by any stretch of the word, is pretty niche compared to Chungus or UI Shaggy. A taunt or costume feels like perfect Grand territory.
The customisation options in PSASBR were really cool - especially the minions.
If KFC_ES became the norm for brand twitters, that would prove to me that capitalism can work. -
