I feel that if any 2010s show is to get a rep in NASB other than the already-featured Loud House and Korra, it will probably be Fanboy & Chum Chum (unless you count Barnyard) - their show is looked upon fondly with hindsight compared to the rest of the 2010s lineup, but its early cancellation also feels a little more justified given how loathed it was upon debut unlike Harvey Beaks or Welcome to the Wayne, which are shows people like and always have liked, but drawing attention to (and therefore indirectly drawing attention to the treatment of) would be bad for the Nick brand unless there was a megaresurgence with internet communities and fan conventions like there was for Zim.

I feel the reason people are quick to disregard characters like Waluigi and Hugh Neutron as "joke/meme picks" is because they're viewing comical franchises through the lens used to view action franchises - specifically anime.

If Jimmy Neutron were a shonen anime, Hugh would be an absurd choice for NASB - but Jimmy Neutron isn't a shonen anime, it's a slice of life episodic children's cartoon; where every character's primary function is to either tell or cause jokes and action setpieces are played entirely for comedy.

If Mario were an epic JRPG series, Waluigi would also be an absurd choice for Smash - but Mario isn't a JRPG, it's a primarily party game/platformer franchise featuring silly; whimsical characters who tend to be on good terms regardless of moral alignment and have generally the same powers and power level.

I feel that when YouTubers encourage viewers to start using their PFP as an "army" it just ends up making them look unprofessional when you eventually get recommended a video from the originator of that PFP.

I posted a few days ago about how the pose of an old Margaret Thatcher statue looks just like K. Rool's - and honestly? I feel there's a relatively low chance it could be intentional - but less in the sense of "haha k rool starves the kongs like maggie starved the miners" or any other political commentary and moreso a somewhat naive "K. Rool is a British character, we should use statues of British rulers for reference!"

I feel my next Fortnite creation thread submission (of a series/IP) should be either The Flintstones or Wikipedia. Dunno what the music for Wikipedia would be though - not sure if using an audio reading would work if it isn't the not-so-E10+-friendly CBT article. Guess I could find other uncomfortable but appropriate articles, or "swaggy" ones with "epic" or "win" in them.

I do wonder, if Smash was just a hypothetical game like the Disney and Microsoft platform fighters are, which weird, relatively obscure series or sub-brand would fanmade rosters hyperfixate on like Disney Channel and Rare stuff? My best guess is Mario spin-offs. 7 WarioWare reps and 3 Kremlings alone but only 4 Pokémon and Pit as the only NES rep

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 18, 2022

I feel a majority of modern Smash's problems are caused either by unneeded compromises (Schrödinger's wavedash, the on-and-off nature of the game's "celebration" status, Ultimate's online mode ruleset system) or pandering to fans for the sake of "hype" livestreams (comically large rosters, source-accurate movesets, lack of obscure/weird newcomers)

I like the idea of NASB having a show-specific announcer, but I don't think it should be Stick Stickly - his voice is too sweet to announce a kart racer, let alone a fighting game. Patchy's voice could work but I feel he has too much of a pirate tone (accent?) to represent all the shows in the game. Realistic Fish Head or one of the live action kid actors could be a really cool announcer.

The Illumination Mario movie job I have in mind for Mario Smash will probably be for the thread to decide what kind of content it gets, with the game getting a 51st fighter if one is chosen.

I am trying to delete project m arcade and project arcade plus. Nobody cared about these two projects because everyone thinks it is a troll or poorly made. I have tried to contact the moderator to delete threads. I refuse to let these mods rot on this server. Can you contact somebody for me? Or report these threads so they can be deleted?

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 17, 2022

I really dislike SSBU's Classic Mode. The mode comes off as super dull and hard to replay without that RNG element. At the very least 64's hyperconsistency made it fun to score attack and speedrun.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 17, 2022

It's kinda funny how on the Mario Smash thread we've already disconfirmed one of the top fan picks for a Mario RPG rep, one of the top fan picks for an arcade DK rep and probably THE top fan pick for Yoshi through ally contacts. Other threads are super conservative and strategic for ATs. (though that usually just ends with characters being conspiciously absent from base game)

I'd be really disappointed if a Disney platform fighter didn't have a Pixar Shorts rep

I fear the prospect that future generations will come across and gain anemoia for oversimplified logos and ASMR adverts the way mine has for 80s nightlife and 90s memphis aesthetics.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 16, 2022

I personally see NASB having competitive mechanics less as "aiming for the wrong audience" and more as the game trusting kids to use their curiousity and creativity - detached from Melee's version of wavedashing and the culture/taboos that surround it, how do you think an 8 year old would react if they learned they could slide fast by airdashing into the ground? Probably less "this is too hard, I give up!" and more "wow! I gotta show my friends how fast I can go!" - kids love the element of discovery and learning new things, (even if they won't admit it) so surely a game with tons of techniques to learn and use hiding within a simple control scheme is what you should be going for?

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 16, 2022

If you look at how Nintendo distribute their games and consider which games a younger generation would have easier access to, FLUDD is way more of a dated reference than Cape. And it's also just a bad move in general.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 16, 2022

It's funny how people are saying "I'm not a teenage girl, so I don't like/want to watch Turning Red!" when Pixar have made not one, but two, beloved children's movies with widowing vilomahs as the main protagonists.

Somebody posted on the Bad Smash Suggestions thread "give the men swimsuits, and the women winter outfits" and the general response was "YO! THAT'D BE RAD!"

Even ignoring the heteronormative implications of the original post, can anyone really tell me they don't love this itchy little thing?

The Nigel Ldair nerfs are really catching me off-guard. Gonna be hard to adjust to that.

People complain a lot about the lack of supers in NASB, but honestly... what would most of these characters' supers even be? Most super ideas that come to mind for this roster are either already in the movesets in some form (a fart for Ren & Stimpy, a scream for Oblina, Avatar state for Aang, Sandy's exploding lasso) or just a waste of a potential alt costume like Lincoln and CatDog's up Bs (Valkyrie Helga, Goofy Goober wizard SpongeBob, Robo-Reptar, Caped Avenger)

I'm honestly legitimately mad that the Mario Smash thread just voted to put Introducing Wario Deluxe on 9-Volt's Game Boy instead of Gamer.

I feel that if you have to take any extra measures to prevent vandalism beyond what's standard you may want to reconsider making a statue at all.

I love the Pixar short Boundin' (jackalope and sheep) because it's so unabashedly and sincerely cutesy - like what people who don't like Disney movies think Disney movies are. It's basically the exact same movie from the bait-and-switch Simpsons Movie bunny trailer

I feel we could do with more media that's just unashamed of its sheer whimsy without needing wisecracks or metajokes - give me teddy bears without guns and dancing flowers who don't get massacred in a wildfire. As you get older you start to appreciate sincere stuff a lot more.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 16, 2022

What I've seen of Homestar Runner has spot-on hillarious writing, but I just don't like that overly simplistic early 2000s webtoon aesthetic (more specifically how they handle their characters' limb proportions) so I can't exactly get into it - I understand the need for simplicity and easy-to-animate characters, but the limitation of Newgrounds stuff and such comes off more Atari 2600 than Hanna-Barbera or Jay Ward's NES compared to modern web (or its' own contemporary TV) animation. Understandable given these are unpaid teenagers in the dawn of a new medium, but still.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 15, 2022

I find it weird how a lot of fanmade hypothetical Smash content treats Super Princess Peach and Luigi's Mansion as paramount parts of their protags' representation, but actively tries to tie Yoshi closer to Mario than his own games.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 15, 2022

I find the trope in cartoons of adults just casually being friends with children they're not related to or working with (Mr. Dink from Doug as the most obvious example, Gazpacho from Chowder if you want to talk within the average profile poster's nostalgia range) really cute. I can kinda understand why people would find the idea off-putting, but the whole thing is relatable to me since as a kid most of my school friends were teens and as a teen most of my school friends were kids.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 15, 2022

Beyond Melee has Sonic, which is very good but not surprising.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 15, 2022

I feel the non-issue I've whined a lot about of Microsoft Smash rosters being too Rare-centric also applies to Disney XD/Channel cartoon stuff in Disney Smash rosters - thought at least with Rare I kinda get it, most if not all Smash fans are also Nintendo fans so their Microsoft knowledge starts and ends with Rare's stint at Nintendo, but the majority of Disney and Pixar's movies are so iconic and ubiquitous that even without all the acquisitions of major IPs (Marvel, Star Wars, Muppets, Simpsons) it seems weird to even give more than 1 or 2 characters to Disney TVA of all things, let alone such a big portion.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 15, 2022

Moveset jobs in creation threads are weird because you'd expect them to be a big deal, but usually they get less responses than stuff like "what colours should the players' shields be"
