This game's humour does not get better with age - however, some of the music choices are really based.

It's kinda surprising you don't see Diddy Kong Racing mentioned in the context of Smash as often as SMRPG. It's got a very similar situation and an equally as devoted fanbase. I guess a "kart driving fighter" is just hard for a lot of people to imagine - though I argue it could be done.
I've been continuing to work on my Mario Smash roster and well... I have betrayed my morals by adding...
Geno.
(Albeit as a Mii Gunner clone - just because I wanted Young Cricket as a Brawler clone really, I also retroactively made Peasley a Mii Swordfighter clone.)
RIP Pom Pom and Classic Wario.
Man, Greg Martin’s Bubsy and Blanka are really on point.
Playing casual SSBU stages with no items is way more fun than I'd expect. Probably would've never figured that out if Nick Brawl wasn't unfinished at launch, heh.

If I had known Mappy was coming to Arcade Archives I would've never brought the overpriced Namco Museum Archives V1, would've just waited for that and Dig Dug.

The fact that Nick's netcode is supposedly really bad compared to other fighting games makes SSBU's netcode even more pathetic.
The potential newcomers I feel the most confident in for a future Smash are Waluigi, one of the Splatoon idol groups, a 3rd Animal Crossing rep, and a gritty/realistic Western 3rd party.
Honestly, I feel a lot of regret for basically spending my entire teen years playing Smash. Wish I had branched out to other games and didn't get so caught up in the hype culture.
Saying Nick Brawl has too much 90s content is like saying a Sega crossover has too much 90s content or a Dreamworks crossover has too much 2000s content. The 90s were Nick's peak in terms of cultural influence, especially when it comes to cartoons given their high expectations and quick cancellations post-Spob. I'd frankly be more surprised if 90s stuff didn't take up a majority of the roster.
Note to self: don't use text as a PFP, especially long text.
Unevolved Rowlet > Decidueye
Majora's Mask > Skull Kid
Elderly Impa > Ninja Impa
Regular Waddle Dee > Bandee
Hills I'm willing to die on.
"Sex and gender are the same!"
Sex and gender:
I really don't get the "Nick Brawl shouldn't have acquired properties" mentality - you have a game with the Ninja Turtles and Garfield in it and you want them cut in favour of characters who barely lasted a decade on TV?
I have found the true Geno of Nick Brawl
On the Nick Brawl thread we were discussing how problematic and poorly aged 2000s Nickcoms are even while ignoring the real world controversies - and I felt it'd be fun to look up a "most innapropriate/poorly aged nickelodeon moments!!!1!" listice and...
Ah yes, that was certainly the most inappropriate and poorly aged part of this particular show.
This is a sad day for humanity
Cartoon Network's UK-exclusive YouTube Poop precursor that featured a black recolour of Dexter as its mascot is now lost media.
If Waluigi gets in Smash, I hope his tagline is a fandom wink like with Ridley's.
"Waluigi shows his potential!"
"Waluigi claims his purple prize!"
"Waluigi isn't just joking!"
"Too bad: Waluigi Time!"
"Waluigi WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-cut off by aspect ratio"
If there was to be a reremake of Mario 64 DS, I think Donkey Kong would make more sense as an extra character overall, to make a "Mario Avengers" sort of game; but I'd probably go with Waluigi to fulfil that rumour.
Dire Dire Docks is the only song in Mario 64 I feel sounds like it could've been part of a game released today. Probably because it doesn't use the pan flute.
Commenting a joke about the lack of a Mother 3 localisation and nothing else on an EB video or discussion screams "I know nothing about this series" in more ways than one.
I made this roster for a 70s/80s gaming crossover. Began as a Hack & Slash idea, but I kinda forgot about that half way though.
Nintendo bundling together the retro titles as a single app is really inconvenient filesize-wise.
If Nintendo were to do another Mario remake with extra characters like 64 DS, I think that'd be a good opportunity to give Daisy time in the limelight - I remember reading Daisy didn't appear in 3D World because she has an extremely similar silhouette to Peach, so having her be the female character while Peach is kidnapped would be clever if I do say so myself.
Pokémon is so big and Game Freak have so few series outside of it that Pokémon Unite could have two characters from every non-Pokémon Game Freak game and they'd still be considered guests.
So... Disney are making a little kids' show about Spider-Man, and that's kinda weird because Spider-Man wears a mask that's inherently unexpressive - generally shows aimed at that audience REALLY play up the expressions to make their emotions easier for kids to read (just look at all the Thomas and Peppa Pig reaction face memes out there and you'll see what I mean) so making a Spidey show seems really counterintuitive and very clearly marketing-driven.
It's super cool how Rushdown Revolt's official Twitter is calling out gatekeepy attitude about NASB.
In general it's awesome how quickly the platform fighting community has taken to Nick as a serious game in spite (or maybe because) of "haha funny spunch bop and nigel thronbery"Smash & NASB Communities:

I like the idea of a shared universe between the Black Box NES games.
I don't think it's in the game version's loop, but I love how Monkey Ball Banana Mania's poppy anime theme song has a rap section.
Nicktoons MLB is such a confusing game because there are 12 times more real life MLB players than there are Nicktoons. (I counted, 25 to 300)
Did the devs really think as many if not more people were buying for Justin Verlander as they were for SpongeBob, Aang, and Ren & Stimpy?
I will never get why people call Smash a celebration of gaming history. The lack of Sony content alone keeps it from even being considered for that status IMO, let alone 80% of the roster being owned by a single company.
People talk a lot about the Mario/Banjo-Kazooie shared universe through DK, but not a lot about the Mario/Rhythm Heaven shared universe through WarioWare - which has WAY more hints and barely any ambiguity over the connection.
