I'm listening to the 158-track Big Chungus album. It starts with "We Don't Talk About Chungus" and ends on "One Winged Chungus"

I feel that when creation threads allow both game characters and non-game characters, things are often stacked unfairly in gaming's favour due to the nature of this site.
I love the fact that Master Hand isn't banned in competitive Melee because he's worse than Bowser.
Imagine if there was a Family Guy stage play and they had to do a scene change every 2 minutes
The stage lineup of SMSB thus far! Hoping for 200 by the end of base game, though I don't think we're on the speed to hit that exactly. (Haven't done the maths though)
EXPLOITS COPYRIGHT ISSUES TO RETROACTIVELY BECOME A MAJOR RECURRING CHARACTER
LIKE A #GIRLBOSS
Something I posted here earlier today may be a hint towards Friday's SMSB jobs.... unless I change my plans as I often do.
Since I don't want to make too long a double post, I will announce here that transformation item subs (not the stone transformations) and competitive stage voting will close in roughly an hour.

I'm personally of the belief that the Mario "main series" consists of the platformers*, Kart, and Party.
*sans the Land duology, Run, and the spotlight games marketed as sequels. I'd probably also be reluctant to count Mario 2 if it weren't for how heavily it impacted later Mario titles even if it never got a true sequel or successor.
It says a lot about fandom culture that subreddits like SaltierThanCrait and SmashRage need to exist seperated from their main subreddits.
SiIvaGunner got verified after Gilva got shut down and I somehow didn't notice until now.
I also don't know whether to feel happy or sad about that,
I feel the only remaining synonym for "fight" that could work for a Smash game is "Duel" - though I also only it'd work if the next game doubled down on 1v1 competitive play like almost all other platform fighters are.
If plastic dinosaurs are made of real dinosaurs they arent, that means the dinosaurs in the Game Dude's breakup re-enactment are more realistic than the dinosaurs in Jurassic World
I like to think of the "retro cutoff" this way:
U/One/4 and Wii/3/360 Era: Old ("The Recent Memory Zone")
SNES/Mega Drive through GameCube/Xbox/2/Dreamcast Era: Retro ("The Nostalgia Zone")
NES/Master System and earlier: Vintage ("The Fading Zone")
I feel the Wii/3/360 era is one of the edge of entering retro and the SNES/SMD era is on the edge of entering fading.
When I say "fading" I don't mean that younger gamers can't, don't, or shouldn't take interest in or seek out vintages titles, moreso that the people who grew up on them initially are losing interest in gaming and there's no more need to cater to their nostalgia unfortunately, which will only make these games harder to access (or at least discover) both legally and illegally unless it's a "your kids are gonna love it" situatuon like EarthBound.
We're submitting transformation items, voting on multi-part items, voting on an item that will lead into later jobs, and voting on competitive stages!

Slightly different take here: I'm not sure too about the Boxing Ring Stage, as that feels like it's leaking a little too much into Punch Out. That's probably the absolute most crossover I'd personally want. I'd extend the absolute extreme to Nintendoland at most. I'm probably in the minority...

I like to consider the Brawl version of Stickerbush Symphony a different song in its own right, known as "Bramble Blast".
The unpopular Smash opinions thread, to me, reads more as "Smash opinions I wish were unpopular."
It's kinda weird how PSASBR was criticised for being "too similar" to Smash back in 2011 despite being easily the least Smash-like platform fighter in recent history, but nowadays games like Rivals and Nick which are the exact same concept as Smash, just with different audiences and priorities, are criticised as "too different"
I do still believe Space Invader and Waluigi would've been equally as good ends to Ultimate as Sora.
One of the weirdest takeaways from watching the QuintonReviews Nickcom video essay saga is that there's an episode of Game Shakers that is supposed to be a crossover with iCarly, but they don't actually meet the iCarly characters - they just watch iCarly and then meet Freddy's actor to ask him who his character ended up marrying after the show.
Like, imagine if a SpongeBob episode started with SpongeBob and Patrick commentating over old Rugrats footage, and the bulk of the plot was them going to the surface to ask Kath Soucie what jobs Phil and Lil got as adults.
I'm starting to get the feeling creation thread players do not care much for competitive-legal stages, heh. I mean, I totally understand it, but either way the only competitive stages I can think of that have been actively voted into a thread with other, more casual stages as options in the same vote (as opposed to a job specifically for competitive stages) are Christmas Village and Star Road in SMSB and The Kremlin in the Another Universe thread, and jobs specifically for competitive stages tend to get barely any interaction.
Or maybe I just made the current SMSB stage job overly complex, I dunno.
If Lego was do a Donkey Kong expansion for the Lego Mario series, I think that instead of having an LCD screen in his chest and regular Lego arms, DK should have non-articulatable arms that are raised up as part of the square body shape with a screen between them so he can carry barrels, planks, animals, so on - kinda like those Minecraft piggyback skins
If I was to make a top 50 favourite games list or something to that extent, a majority of the entries would probably be games with one simple mechanic that the game encourages you to push to its limits and use in tandem with different obstacles and hazards without ever truly upgrading your skillset. It'd probably also not have many 3D games, with a majority if not all of the ones listed being Crash titles.
We are submitting locations and optional hazards for competitive legal stages + Penny's Final Smash + segmented items (think Dragoon/Daybreak) + a complex item that we can add more to later like Assist Trophies; Poké Balls; or Smash Balls.

If I had a penny for every time a crossover platform fighter launched without multiple extremely obvious no-brainer character picks, I'd have 4 pennies, which... is a lot actually considering how little history this subgenre has
To be fair most of the snubs have some sort of understandable reason, and the ones that don't probably have one we just don't know about. I also excluded Smash 64 and Multiversus due to their (base in the case of MVS) roster sizes - otherwise Bowser; Peach; Mewtwo; Daffy Duck; Harry Potter; and a second serving of Wario + Banjo would also be here.
The only two things you'll ever need in life
I think that regardless of whether they think the misconception is a reason for or against a massive Smash roster purge to make a true gaming history celebration, a lot of Smash fans don't understand that such a game would still have room for deep cuts (in a BCS) considering how many major parts of gaming history have faded into obscurity with the increasingly Americanised nature of internet documentation; declining interest in generations leaving the nostalgia zone; and how many genre innovators are overshadowed by more polished or even outright better releases of a similar type weeks or months later.
And even in the WCS, this is the sort of fandom to use terms like "Call of Duty Soldier" and "GTA Thug" so really any character can be a deep cut to Smash fandom.
If there was to be a human Pokémon rep in Smash, I'd rather they come from one of the niche spin-offs like Todd Snap or Lucy Fleetfoot.
I was about to say that I feel Multiversus should've been a Lego game to give it cohesion, but now I think about it I'm not too sure since Lego characters all have the same proportions.
That being said, a customisation-centric Lego platfighter with a ton of licensed IPs who's characters are purely cosmetic and can be applied to any archetype and/or weapon? Bring it on.
The one good thing about "dead game" circlejerk is that it's only relevant to consumers and not the big businesses in charge of a game's fate since they only see the money from initial and DLC purchases and not playerbase size, (at least for premium titles) meaning that future DLC really isn't effected by all the clowning and mockery so long as sales are good.
The fact that Yakkity Yak is more wanted on the NASB RTC than Plankton is so funny to me.
The Stork is here! Moveset and alt costume subs are on! + music subs for the Airship stage.

I'm watching Quinton Reviews' Victorious video and WOW - I really, REALLY do not like Ariana Grande's character. (Cat) I'm sure Grande is a way better actor that you'd think from this show, but the direction she was given just comes off as grating yet uncomfortable at the same time
A casual stage concept that's been on my mind for a while now. Red platform is soft, black platforms are hard.
