If, in some hypothetical universe, Mario was a newcomer in a non-Nintendo-made Smash, they could do the music-changing thing Mementos does but for all the Mario subseries. You could have an NSMB theme for 2D platformers, SM64 theme for 3D platformers, then Mario Kart; Yoshi's Island; Wario Land; WarioWare; and DKC themes for those respective franchises - maybe even a classic DK theme for pre-SMB Mario games and a Dr. Mario theme for quirky (non-RPG) spin-offs.

I think I may have accidentally killed the Roster Curation thread by making a super long, extremely niche roster you have to remove 84 out of 148 entries from while also putting 16 of them into an extra category.

on the Disney platform fighter creation thread I submitted Monsters Inc. with the writeup being entirely just "Monsters Inc." - somehow it won, and I'm not sure if that's a testament to just how beloved MI is, or a testament to how uhh... lacking... the other submissions for the first repped Pixar movie were. (Brave and Onward got submitted, but not Toy Story or Up).

The thing about pipe dreams is that, should they come true, you'll more often than not find those pipes to be rusty and filled with asbestos.

Monika is probably the most ridiculous character I've ever seen request for Smash - and that includes ironic Shrek/Home Depot requests. Like, who plays an existential horror game about a teenage girl discovering the boundaries of her universe and brainwashing her classmates to the point of suicide so she can win someone's heart then says "put it in Smash!"?

If you want a "glitchy fighter", you would have better luck getting Nintendo to acknowledge MissingNo or approve of the Game Genie - because at least those characters don't fly past the lines of good taste in this context.

Also, I think that adding a character created by an ex-PM dev would be more of an insult than anything considering Nintendo have actively tried to indirectly kill that mod and Namco have learned nothing from its popularity.

Me realising Sora in Smash doesn't mean a rerelease of Uniracers.

Ah yes, this game has absolutely no dark greens.

I was watching a YouTube video of British kids' show intros, and I think this intro may have been the most bat**** insane minute of my life.

I bet that in a decade's time, zoomers will be debating "Nick Brawl vs. Smash Ultimate" like how their ancestors debated CTR vs. Mario Kart

Nathaniel Brandy's "How X TRIGGERS You!" videos are basically just your typical angry gamer schtick but with the basics of comedic timing replaced with a title that makes fun of PTSD victims.

I remember people saying that genetically, Hat Kid could be Mario and Peach's daughter - but I want to propose a counter-theory

Mario had a moustache in his early years - if we are to believe pre-pubescent facial hair is a genetic trait...

I googled "Donkey Kong Disney" to find out if I'm the only person who's noticed how Disney-esque the original DKC games are tonally... and found this.

I can't find the version of Amogus Bitcoin Bubble where Amogus has one eye instead of a visor. Help me.

The motion control dancing final bosses in WarioWare games are always inhumanly intense - they're not even hard, I usually get them first try, they're just... tense.

If Doomguy ever gets in Smash I really hope his stage is a retro stage.

Most instances where the word "sphere" is used are usually contexts where "ball" would be innapropriate.

Putting Sakurai himself in Smash in any form - be it as a Spirit, meta-boss, playable fighter, whatever - would have a catastrophic effect on Smash and overall Nintendo fandom. We'd have wars between "worshippers" and "haters", (very just) cries of narcissism, Nintendo fans learning what "consumerism" and "idol worship" mean the hard way, those aforementioned fans and detractors turning sides... It'd be worse than Byleth, worse than the Waluigi AT, worse than Federation Force, worse than Grinch Leak, possibly even worse than SwSh, it'd be HELL.

It's really sad how so many people like to warp the beautiful message of "different is good" into a more scummy "inequality is good" and vice versa.

Most things people use as evidence of "shared universes" seem more like evidence to the contrary.

The Charlie and the Chocolate Factory/Batman "Tim Burton shared universe" example for one - if Smylex (poisonous gas) came before Smilex (toothpaste), why would the company making it want to be associated with the poison gas? and if Smilex came first why aren't they suing the Joker for ruining their good name?

My least favourite trope - like, at all - is the forgiveness bait and switch. You can have the protagonist do that against any kind of villain, no matter how cataclysmic their actions are or how little remorse they show, and it'll instantly make both the villain more symphatheitc and the "hero" significantly less sympathethic

I really hope Namco get the rights to Ms. Pac-Man back soon, her most recent design is the best she's looked in history. A lot more distinct from Pac with a perfectly 80s colour palette. Only thing I'd change is her eyebrows and possibly the specific shade of yellow.

If NFTs were my only viable way out of crippling debt that could starve me to death if unchecked, I'd happily starve.

The Despicable Me DS game is one of the most bizarre instances of early installment weirdness I know - you would never see Minions this varied in a modern day DM product.

"Subversive" social media account managers must be having a nightmare with NFTs - the hip, edgy teen-to-20s youth crowd they're aiming for (who may even be the ones writing the posts) DESPISE these "things" (if you can even call them that) but they can't meme about it because they know the CEOs see big bucks there.

Everybody talks about the 30 billion SpongeBobs, but let's not forget the 1.5 billion Mike Wazowskis needed to defeat Goku

I do believe the slower post-HAL Smash gameplay style has competitive potential, but neither Wii U nor Ultimate have really embraced the chess-like strategy such a playstyle would focus on. If Nintendo wants a competitive game (which it seems they don't), they should either go full Melee or make a distinctly slow-paced and strategic game.

The thing I hate about Seth Rogen DK isn't that it doesn't fit... but rather that it does fit and I'm uncomfortable with that reality.

If you got illegally sold Project M for money, does that make it a hack fraud?

Wario Wario Wario · Oct 14, 2021

To me the problem with non-game characters in Smash isn't "losing the focus" but rather that it'd give Nintendo a bigger monopoly over the platform fighter genre than they already have.

One of the main reasons people were hyped about Nick Brawl was because characters like SpongeBob, Aang, the Turtles, Ren & Stimpy, e.t.c. are popular enough (if not more so) to draw as much attention as Nintendo's cast of characters - that would've been lost if Goku got in Smash beforehand and SpongeBob was on the table.

Oh god... what does the one that isn't visual-only look like?

Since one of your most wanted fighters is the Creature thing you play as from E.V.O: Search for Eden.

How would it work as a fighter?
(Maybe Down Special makes you choose a body part to evolve in battle like a tail or horns?)
