Intentionally or not, Nintendo making the character who's main if not only personality trait is liking their earlier games the worst character to play as is VERY on brand.

When I was a kid, I thought the Piranha Plant Pipeway track in Mario Kart 7 was really cool because it was a multiplayer game level that looked like something from the platformer series.
Oooh, if only I knew....
The atmosphere of the early WarioWares (up to Smooth Moves about) is underappreciated. They're to city life what Donkey Kong Country 1&2 are to nature - especially Mega Microgames.
Half-empty: Publishers are making devs finish incomplete games later
Half-full: A whole console generation of prototypes archived forever!
Those TTS SpongeBob videos are actually getting absurd now - how do the people who make these video keep finding foreign words that sound vaguely like "sus" or "penis"? Surely if you put "sus" into Google Translate detect-to-English it'll only show one recommended language... right?

Dr. Mario was chosen for Melee just because Sakurai liked his music.
If he kept this selection process up today, we would've got Voodoo Vince instead of Banjo or Steve.
Whether that's good or bad is up to you.
I do legit think it's kinda insulting to have a Balloon Fight stage in "celebration of gaming"-era Smash without as much as a mention of Joust.
I love how Nick Brawl has a bunch of different takes for every announcer call that it randomises between.
While not likely (as far as "likely" exists in this discussion) by any means, I think if any Nick Jr. character is to appear in NASB, it should be Robbie Rotten.
He's probably the only live action Nick character, Jr. or main, with no risk of controversy; would go down well thanks to his meme status; and wouldn't create any brand image conflicts on virtue of being a villain in a show that hasn't reran in years.
I should note LazyTown is currently owned by Time Warner so even if Ludosity had the points I'm thinking of in mind and Nickelodeon agreed to let Robbie in I doubt he'd have a shot.
I don't know if "filmed on a potato" originates from potato clock experiments or just random humour.
If I were Sakurai, I would not have been able to keep in my ****post urges, I would've cancelled the Sora deal mid-way to get Kermit, Mike Wazowski, or Homer instead, possibly ruining Smash forever in the eyes of many.
It might just be the algorithm, but I've been seeing just as much NASB content as Sora content on YT
This isn't just a good sign for Nick, it's a good sign for platform fighting as a genre.
If you ever need to anthropomorphise me, just draw Wario (preferably biker) with three vertically stacked faces. Not heads, 3 faces on a single long head.

Honestly I think Smash is the sort of game that having a story mode and lore is actively detrimental to. All these characters have different genres, tones, target audiences, fanbases, so on - it is impossible to incorporate even a fraction of them into a single cohesive narriative without either stripping them down to archetypes or making a cluttered story.
I would love to see more character interactions within Smash, but a story mode is not how you do it. Win quotes have always been my prefered approach, but most of these characters are silent so that could be for naught.
The roster curation thread really loses its fun when people make huge rosters you only have to remove 5 or 7 characters from.
This image speaks for itself.
r/Mario has some really good fanart and projects, but god damn are its users unfunny and misinformed about everything.
A lot of the music in Nick Brawl, especially the generic and Turtles tracks, gives me somewhat of a sleek Amiga-ey vibe, not sure if it's right for a game like this but I love that cool but atmospheric feel. Like stepping into an alternate reality as fun as it is dangerous.
I think I'm in more anticipation over whether the Infinite thread will allow the DuckTales Moon theme after Sora's reveal than I was over Sora's actual reveal.
This sounds like the most "preschool cartoon villain" thing to say, but I've always found hearts and yellow smiley faces unappealing, especially when put on a character design or logo.
I'll have to get that Alex amiibo.
I dunno why they saved Sora's Final Smash for post-Direct. I thought it'd be either 1. Disney characters, or 2. push the Switch hardware to its limits, but nope.
They must've have a strict length mandate or something.
Honestly I don't think Infinite's content cap is as unrealistic as people say - Smash is an AAA franchise at this point, getting the budget for something as big as Infinite, while still very hard, would be far from impossible - especially if it were built directly off of Ultimate. It's unrealistic, sure, but not ludicruous I feel.
I feel Sakurai's team may have slightly overestimated how popular Sora is, at least today compared to the time of the Ballot.
Doug.
Write the joke yourself.
It's the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!
You can't hide, it's genocide!
There is literally no reason not to have a Hazards On ruleset now.
I think Sora was a good choice, but I do still believe the fighters' passes had a horrible homogeny problem.
I have a friend who loves rubberhose stuff, can't wait to see what he thinks of TR Sora.
Today's a violent day to be a cartoon character.
They chose the best possible Sora world skin.
I can't believe I just saw Woody in a Smash presentation.

One last jinx... it happened with NSO Banjo, and I'll settle for Mii Costumes...
Putting Waluigi, Muddy Mole, Jill & Drill Dozer, Dr. Eggman, Tails, Knight & Ostrich, PaRappa the Rapper, Onix, Bubsy, Crash Bandicoot, Space Invader, Adventurer, Clippit, Knuckles, Tingle, Bonanza Bros, Ashley, Angry Birds, or Dixie Kong in Smash would be a STUPID idea!
Nick is so fast that a tool assisted battle would probably need a seizure warning at the beginning.
Trust me, believe the Nick hype. This game is special and it'll only get better as it grows.
No items, April only, Garfield's heaven litterbox.
I think not using Side Bs in Nick Brawl was a smart move - it makes the gameplay that slightest bit less centred around specials and will encourage casual players to learn how to use lights and strongs. The lack of fairs (and to a lesser extent bairs - air-turning erases the need really, but they could lead to strafe button monkeyshines) is a little questionable though
Hungry pink stars really do struggle in platform fighters, eh?
Unless it's Smash 64. -
