I don't think fan rules are anything more than gatekeeping, but I also do think they've directly impacted Smash's roster (in mostly negative ways mind you) - especially in the case of the ballot.

The 32-bit era easily had the best startups of any one gaming generation, with only the directly following generation coming close - even the bad consoles like Jaguar; Amiga CD32; and CD-i had incredible startups - so it's kind of a shame that the N64 didn't have a startup, and when it did get one on the DD it was probably the least remarkable startup of the console market at that time.

I had a dream where Machoke got two new pre-evolutions: one that had green hair and a cyclops eye (never got the name though), and another that looked like Miltank but was drawn like a Hanna-Barbera character and had the build of Crash Bandicoot, officially named "Yabba Dabba Moo Headass". - also the first one was revealed in a toothpaste commercial.
In the same dream, I went on a Wallace & Gromit themed rollercoaster, which was a train with no floor that would drag your feet through hot coal paved with cold processed McDonald's cheese, and was - other than the car having a Jpeg of Wallace on it - decorated only with statues of Link picking up a penny.
Mainstream media, this is the 7th year in a row you've shown World War 3 in class
As much as I love obscure character comebacks, I hope Pac-Devil never appears in a Pac-Man game again. This is an absolute "the answers will ruin it" case - is Pac-Devil evil or just a wild guy? Is Pac-Devil just a Pac-Demon or the Pac-Satan? Is there a Pac-Hell? a Pac-Angel or even Pac-God? Is Pac-Devil a fallen Pac-Angel? Is this a transformation/costume of Pac-Man or a seperate character? Who came up with idea for this out-universe? Is he a cohort of the ghosts, a shared enemy, or even Pac-Man's ally? How can damnnation exist in a world filled with evil ghosts? Any official answer to these questions, no matter how wild or world-shattering, cannot compare to the reality of this beautiful anomaly.
Tried installing P+ on my laptop, did not go well - worst of all is that Windows took the opportunity of a crash restart to perform a system update.
I love the layout of Peach's Castle 64, but really wish it had a different aesthetic, preferably something directly tied to pinball like Casino Night Zone, Revenge of the 'Gator, or Waluigi Pinball.
I don't think Dunkey's Xenoblade 2 video having more views than the game has sales is necessarily a case of it scaring people away from XBC2 and more just a case of there being a bigger market for a snarky YouTube video making fun of a game like XBC2 than there is for a game like XBC2.
I had NES Punch-Out on my 3DS as a kid, and I had heard the original version had a real world boxer in it, so I looked it up and jumped out of my skin when I saw the 8-bit Mike Tyson jumpscare.
Unironically let Game Freak make Smash. They make banger platformers and understand their competitive community a lot better than the Smash team.
One thing that annoys me a little is when people have a mentality that basically amounts to "this person made something I like, so they must naturally have the same tastes and standards as me" - that may not be the best way to put it, but basically either A. feeling betrayed or upset (even mildly or jokingly) that a creator has expressed love for something you dislike or vice versa - see the replies to Kojima's Minions tweet - or B. assuming any design decision you disagree with was inherently a corporate choice or out of the artists' hands - see the constant moaning about Rare's shift in direction under Microsoft from Nintendo fans since 2002.
Even though I liked the idea a lot at the time, SSBU ending on a history character like Space Invader or an Atari rep wasn't really a good idea - even disregarding that Smash fans have an aversion to any game released before the late 90s, it wouldn't be earned like G&W in Melee was given SSBU isn't really a good "gaming history museum" in the way Melee and Brawl were "Nintendo museums". Sora on the other hand does feel earned given how much SSBU focused on fan picks - even if I disagree with that approach.
How could I forget? Today's the day!
why does amy sound like johnny 2 by 4 in frontiers
I don't really like the idea of Bentley Bear in Smash that much compared to other potential Atari reps, mostly because I feel he has too much of a personality/theme to him and it wouldn't make sense for him to pull out space or high fantasy-themed props, let alone such props with a retro aesthetic. It's kinda like making the wolf from Egg the Game & Watch rep instead of a generic silhouette, sure: the wolf has way more personality and is much more striking to the eye, but he also has a specific theme that doesn't blend well with being lifted up by firemen or transforming into an octopus - in a similar way, I feel Bentley's Disney-esque kiddie fantasy aesthetic wouldn't work well with showcasing all of Atari's lineup in the way a cube with an arrow or a triangle that shoots lasers would.
As DriDim goes on the franchises prompts are probably gonna get way more specific - which was what happened with SMSB too (early prompts being on the line of "Submit a Yoshi character" while later prompts were more akin to "Submit a clone of a Melee high tier")
It'd really suck if the only Microsoft content we got on Switch after Ori was just Minecraft and Rare.
Smash debates be like "Who's more iconic? Lara Croft or the Trillionage Sprout?"
There was a problem fetching the tweet
I have never made Ryu do a hadouken in a non-Smash game, but for some reason being able to do one with a single button in Smash just seems wrong.
if skyrim has a stage but not a character in infinite that means you can play the buck bumble theme while fighting atop a dragon,
I got the Atari 50 compilation.
Tempest 2000 slaps.
I do wonder why Lip's Theme was on PictoChat in Brawl instead of the Yoshi's Island stage - even if you ignore that Tetris Attack exists, the song fits way better on YI aesthetically and YI is pretty similar aesthetically to Lip's home in Panel De Pon. Would've gone well on Green Greens too, but Brawl was really weird about Melee stages.
Even as a non-Minecraft enjoyer, a second Minecraft rep is one of the most overlooked "general series newcomer" categories. Shouldn't happen before Chief or another homegrown Xbox character though.
I don't get why Smash fans are so obsessed with having a villain from every series, and also why the villains discussed are always mains instead of mini-bosses or goons.
Grassy plains make up roughly 20% of SSBU's stagelist - and that's not even including partially grassy stages like Battlefield and Temple, background grass like Great Plateau or Rainbow Cruise, or Astroturfed grass like the Pokémon Stadiums.
jk rowling accidentally giving daniel radcliffe basic empathy when creating him.
So, which character would be the profile picture of the Drifting Dimensions Leaks Twitter account? I'm betting on Pooka.
If I did end up doing an SSBU sequel thread, I probably would've done like 2 third party side-over-protag jobs in the base game alone.
this song is such an awesome way to start every morning
Banjo-Threeie may have been the most catastrophic "implies the existence of..." joke in human history
I don't understand why gamers have such a hard time comprehending (or at least accepting) episodic cartoon storytelling.
sorry for another ping but oh my God it looks like shaun the sheep from a distance

Put Handsome Squidward in NASB and make his moveset as derivative of Captain Falcon as Orka in Slap City is of Little Mac.
Though, if the game had throw animations I'd also suggest giving him Zero Suit Samus' down throw. -
