The Switch successor should have backwards compatibility, but I don't think it needs it, since the Switch is portable and as a result easy to keep around without having plug and unplug stuff to the TV

I find the "How did they clone Kirby" criticism of WOL's plot kinda funny, because there's a ton of duplicate spirits like "Tennis Mario" and "Graffiti Link", and given Kirby's whole deal is that he dons a ton of costumes, that's a lot of Kirbies to potentially clone. For all we know, those Lumas are inside the cloned body of... I dunno, Detective Kirby From That German Comic Book That They Intentionally Made Bad Because The Writer Had A Grudge With Sakurai.

Something I'm wondering for those of you who play HDR:
Can HDR be modded to have the vanilla SSBU stagelist? Or preferably, to have the new stages overwrite Omega and Battlefield forms instead of base forms?

i was gonna write a meme post where i presented scenarios from smash speculation as if they were about what animals pokemon are based on, but tbh i think crying tears of joy and thinking your whole life has been vindicated over finding out that they're making a llama pokemon is a fully rational response

I'm looking at a GameFAQs thread with the gimmick "Design Smash as if it were NASB" and they just keep putting out banger idea after banger

1. Make a swarm of angry wasps from Animal Crossing playable
2. Create an OC stage for Xenoblade
3. Greg Martin Sonic
4. Ridley as a stage you fight on top of
5. Playable Doc Louis
6. Playable Meloetta
7. Charmander replaces Charizard
8. Playable Zavok

You're supposed to be making the game worse, guys! How can you not find fighting on top of a dragon to be awesome?

Final Destination and its equivalents within other platform fighters are really underrated as casual free-for-all stages - there may not be much surprise to it, but it makes for a really silly and chaotic king-of-the-hill battle where the stage ends up feeling a lot smaller than it is.

that blue lobster meme only existed for 2 days yet it's burrowed so hard into my subconscious that i always associate Toccata & Fugue in D Minor with blue lobsters whenever i hear it

so glad to find out that the podcast about analyzing muppet babies to find out what why skeeter never appeared as an adult was an actual thing i listened to and not a covid fever dream like the monsters inc meme arg.

I just found out that Splatoon has a character allegedly named after the Commodore 64's SID chip, and ignoring the haha funny nintendo fans dont know what a commodore 64 is jokes, I am very mad they didn't name the female performer in Sid's band (Harmony) "Paula" after the Amiga's soundchip.

Back during the 2023 Cut Debacles, I often saw Lincoln fans on the NASB thread bring up how the choice to cut Lincoln but put in the castle stage was "missing the point of the movie" - I always just kinda disregarded that as "oh, it's significant to Lincoln's arc", but I just stumbled across this image on Internet McDonalds (AKA TV Tropes) and lmao this is such a blatant response to people thinking their main protag is boring. its like if aladdin 2 had a scene where aladdin mopes in front of a giant genie poster

3d smash bros would be the the grim adventures of billy and mandy the official video game for ps2 killer

why has nobody posted a video of the credits of the monopoly game 2 for super famicom. i need to tell the users of vgfacts that it was developed by a competitive monopoly player who did not do anything that an audience mostly comprised of nintendo fans would find interesting whatsoever.

Here's my "Ultimate sequel" newcomer roster, made with a "let's actually sell copies of this game" mentality (albeit without dropping my signature unconventionality) but not a "let's make something realistic" mentality - I dunno if I ever posted the base game set (left image) but I absolutely haven't posted the DLC set (right image) on the profile posts. It's an EIH roster, DLC is ordered by reveal (left to right, top to bottom) but base game isn't (I imagine the game having a Kratos, Master Chief, and Waluigi triple reveal as it's first trailer)

Small thing to note: I have "retconned" the base game list a little bit after finishing it - I now consider Modern Sonic the newcomer echo, with the classic design being the default. Eggman is still modern though. Additionally, since I couldn't really fit these details on the images: Agumon/Greymon is a stance fighter and Callie/Marie are alts, and may also include unusually tall Pearl and unusually short Marina. Yuka is a Koopaling-style alts character with some of the human Rhythm Heaven girls. (+ the Double Date boy and possibly a monkey) I have been thinking of expanding on this roster a little bit more by creating a fully fledged fake Smash game with items, stages, and such detailed.

Even though I'm personally an advocate for using Classic Sonic as the default in Smash, if Dr. Eggman ever gets in, he needs to use his Modern design, no two ways around it.

I think a significant chunk of the Assist Trophy stigma comes from the design of the item itself - the Smash trophy lore is already a bit messed up, and turning characters into nondescript blobs stranded inside a glass container does not help matters at all

The Brawl design was even worse about this with how cold and blue they made it look. I'm not sure what an alternative design could be, perhaps an instrument or remote control that attracts them from their universe instead of releasing them?

One idea I had that would probably not be compatible with Smash's modern tone at all but would be fun for a Smash that leans back into 64's pro wrestling influences is a megaphone to make an open call for audience participation. It implies that your favourite characters are cheering you on, and each character would get a cute "Hey!" or "Yoohoo!" voice clip

i just had the really stupid idea that if umjammer lammy was in a psasbr sequel she would have a command grab where she plays her opponent like a guitar just like she did the baby

So, what I gather from the Star Fox lore is that each game is the same story retold 50 times over except the one with dinosaurs and the one where they have kids and become depressed.

i'm trying to do a dlc sequel to my ultimate sequel newcomer roster and i'm really drawing a blank because i want to appeal to fan demand but the fan demand picks are uhh... ungood.

Global Smash Roster redirects to the Nintendo site now? What?

"Nope! no fridges I've seen around here lately, and certainly none that looked might appetizing!"

Number joke

i thought siivagunner made this up like the icarly rips

i saw an article title about "splatoon 3's greeting splatfest" and i concerned that they were going to do the war on christmas in splatoon.

I'm not gonna both-sides this, complaining about AI voice use for recreational fan projects is as stupid as all the YouTube Poop DMCAs going around in the late 2000s, I could not even begin to conceive why people side with the VAs in the situations.

i dont know why the vgfacts admins deemed yoshi's nose bleeding as nsfw

"Frozen 4 in the works" sounds like actual satire.

Nintendo fans think every first party series in Smash is some super iconic esteemed title except for Duck Hunt and Wii Fit, the actual super iconic esteemed titles.

is it just me or does everyone who does video essays about disney villains sound like a disney villain themselves

i cant believe vgfacts didn't have the alex kidd in shinobi world mario fact until now. i remember that being one of the definitive doki doki panic/puck-man type cliche facts back in the late 2000s/early 2010s internet

It's always funny how, whenever a gaming myth about "big nasty corporation forces meager nice corporation to make bad games!" gets debunked, the notion doesn't shift to "oh, we were wrong, hopefully someone else wants to make that game then!" but rather "Maybe it's OK to force people to make games they don't want to"

My only exposure to "The Brave Little Toaster" is the Worthless song and that one screenshot of the clown - and honestly, I love how the Worthless song randomly cuts to a fourth-wall-breaking Crazy Eddie parody without cutting out the somber music. I'm not sure if I like that in a "this is stupid" way or a "this is clever" way, I'd probably have to watch the movie for context.

Somebody played Pyjama Sam

In all seriousness, this looks great. A lot of the character designs remind me of the Hoobs. I really hope they don't make Light and the day entities the villains.

Is it true that the Mario RPG remake removes the Woolseyisms just to replace them with more Woolseyisms? If so, that is extremely based and gratitiouslocalisationpilled.

It. Is. Done.

Of all the non-FNAF mascot horror games, particularly from when FNAF first came out, the one that sticks out in my mind most is Tattletail. I don't know why, there's nothing special about it really, I just kinda think about that one a lot.
