I feel like the Bubsy series is in this weird situation where the games' reputations are totally deserved, but there's also a lot of harmful misinformation about it and an overwhelmingly bad stigma towards it's fandom (ableit one usually not born from malice but rather from the assumption it doesn't exist)

When Duck Hunt comes on the Expand-A-Franchise thread, I might go all-in on Tin Star content, discovered the game through a Mugen character and I just love the style of it. Created by the guys behind Plok too.

Of all the Smash roster, Bayonetta seems like the one most likely to enjoy Family Guy rip-offs.

Whenever I see casual players criticise Ultimate it's always for the weirdest reasons - like, the lack of Break the Targets is a deal breaker for some people? Pandering: The Game somehow doesn't have enough popular fan picks? Like I'm glad people are criticising this mediocre, behind-the-genre game, but those definetly aren't the reasons I'd go for.

The amount of vitriol I've seen aimed at a one off cartoon villain from 17 years ago who's worst crime was licking icing off a cake will always be baffling. Like, the way wannabe-Mr. Enters talk about him you'd think he broke a hole in the wall or something at best, but no - he left crisps on the floor and wore dirty boots indoors.

I really dislike the idea of Monika in Smash - not only is adding a character from a game about teenage suicide in poor taste, but it'd also suck if they added a character created by an ex-PMDT without actually taking mechanical cues from PM.

TikTok Hercules will either be the objective best or objective worst LA remake. No inbetween.

"Hmm, this game is low profile; really old; and has a weird concept, I wonder how much it'd cost to get the license to make a new-goddammit it's owned by the Godzilla guys" - me, 5 minutes ago, researching 'Mecarobot Golf'

The environments in Sonic Frontiers look really bad - not in the sense of "bad Sonic environments" or "realistic games = bad", but moreso just bad. The "real world" is too barren and the cyberspace levels are too cluttered. I'm 99.9% sure it's an intentional juxtaposition but that still doesn't excuse looking hideous IMO. I can appreciate the environments of games like 06 and Shadow despite not thinking they suit a rubberhose-inspired furry with a monoeye, but these wouldn't work even with a character design suited for them.

I've finally played Fractured Furry Tales, and TBH people seriously exaggerate how bad it is - it's not good by any means, but it's also one of the stronger Bubsy offerings. Bubsy controls better in it than CEOTFK, but out-of-nowhere enemies are a bigger problem than in it too. Though, if Bubsy was slower, like a Mega Man X sort of heavy feel, possibly with a projectile or some other attack that isn't his standard bop, I would be willing to call it a good or at least decent game - the game's level layouts seem well fit for that sort of physics.

VB Wario Land is so good that IMO it alone gives the Virtual Boy a better game library than the N64 and GBC.

The dark and edgy tone of Sparks of Hope REALLY puts me off. I'm sure it's a great game but I can't look past the damn neon-haired sword Rabbid and tragic Rabbid backstories.

I feel like a NASB "story mode" should be structured like Slap City's - basically Melee adventure, but every character has their own route and dialogue, you can save, and the mode teaches you their mechanics.

I like how this Smash Bros. website is the only place where you can call Smash Bros. a dumpster fire of a game series and not get crucified.

Pirahna Plant is a great regular character pick, but a horrible substitute for a "special surprise character".

Imagine how epic it'd be if Chuck E. Cheese and FNaF joined Drifting Dimensions at the same time

Also, funnily enough, I was planning Chuck E. as my submission for the "solo wheels" job

If Sylvester and Tweety were in Multiversus, I feel they should be more hit & run fighters than the zoners Tom & Jerry are - with the player being able to make Tweety fly away from Sylvester, and then have Sylvester track him down either when he is cornered or a foe is zoning around Tweety as a teleport-style move.

Game journalism websites will publish opinion pieces titled "How white supremacy paved the roots for gaming tribalism" then immediately publish an article titled "INFERIOR MARIO TENNIS IMPOSTER SHREK BADMINTON PLAYER COUNT DWINDLES TO 20 IN A MONTH"

I wonder what it's like to be someone used to GameFAQs/Smash Twitter/any popular Smash discord or subreddit/e.t.c. and visit Smashboards to immediately be greeted by me posting about how Smash should reveal every character in the span of 7 seconds or Smash 64 was the only Smash game with a good aesthetic. There's definetly a wider overton window here than any other Smash community I know of.

Smash gives every single individual character the marketing budget of a blockbuster movie and people somehow can't figure out why fans get extremely mad over specific choices.

(Yes, I am aware that vehemont Smash roster discourse dates back to Brawl - that's my point really, that they made no attempt to quell such discourse when it began to pop up, not that they didn't magically predict such discourse would exist)

While I don't want either, I'd much prefer a Chip N' Dale-esque "hey look, Mario just said damn and beat up Cloud!" Smash movie over one that takes itself even 10% as seriously as SSE did.

I'm honestly not all too comfortable with one of Batman's tracks in DriDim being a mental hospital, but it is an iconic locale and the track that was voted in, so I guess I should respect that.

So, apparently SSBU's offline input delay is partially due to the lighting system?

Great, more reasons to hate the desaturated look.

Gamers calling Pitfall and Space Invaders "Atari games", Final Fantasy 7 and Crash Bandicoot "Sony games", and Banjo-Kazooie and Mega Man "Nintendo games".

Gamers when grandma calls the Xbox "a Game Boy".

I don't get why people see "making a platform fighter better than Smash" as some unthinkable Hurculean trial, even from a casual "characters are characters" perspective.
