In my platform fighter I might make it so that jumping is instantaneous and snappy, no delay with jumpsquats, when you jump you immediately jump, there is still landing lag however. TBH I don't get jumpsquats in platfighters, either everyone has different jumpsquats, which just screws over the ones with very long squats, or everyone has the same jumpsquat to the point where it feels uncessary, like when I play a platfighter, or any platform, I want instantaneous jumping, since I feel more control over my character. The keeping of a landing squat already adds risk to jumping since you have to go on a cooldown to move again, but it also doesn't cause delay in how you move in the air.

If Battle of AGES comes back for the true final character, i would pick Frogger as a guest character. Sega published the original arcade game in all territories

Goht from Majora’s Mask often receives praise as one of the best bosses in the game, but there’s a very not often talked about trick to the fight.

If you just simply stand in the doorway of the entrance to his arena and shoot him with Fire Arrows every time he laps around to that area, you can take him down without him ever even being able to hit you. The pots that refill your arrows and magic even respawn.

This is the method I used the first ever time I fought Goht and I think it’s the kind of thing that overly critical people on the internet would make fun of the game and/or Nintendo for.

And if we’re being honest, it’s not a very fun method of fighting Goht with. It’s slow, it’s tedious, and it just feels cheap.

But it does present another thing I appreciate about the fight with Goht. It shows a great example of how even if there’s a lame way to cheese a boss fight, you don’t have to use it. I think it’s far better to just fight a boss with a method you enjoy rather than complain about a tedious method that you don’t even have to use being present at all.

Watching an MVS tierlist video and

1. Listening to someone seriously talk about The Rock's Black Adam as a fighting game character feels borderline like they're being exploited.
2. There's a nice irony to the best character in the 1v1 gamemode being Jake, a character who likely only got in (at least so early) because of the 2v2 focus.

I don’t really like mario rpg or paper mario. Every 40 year old nintendo youtuber wants to hang me now.
