All the characters I think could reasonably be Nintendo's first rep in AU Sony/Microsoft Smash. Maybe throw in Inkling as well.

(i was not aware of the similarly-themed post below this when i was making this)

I had the idea of doing a sort of semi-RTC thread where want and exclusively want are talked about instead of speculation, perhaps with different subcategories of want such as whether they should prioritised over other characters, how fun their moveset could be, how much you'd be willing to settle for an AT or other minor nod, so on.

just found out the etymology of "snafu"

People using the classic Sonic games in any side of the "what tone should Sonic be" race is ridiculous because they're 16-bit video games. Even games from that period that had complex stories and lengthy dialog leave a lot up to the imagination.

OK, so imagine: Cross-series stage cameos.

If Smash was to have a "universal alt costume" like the evil costumes in NASB2 and CNPTEXL (or I guess, if you count NPC costumes, the polygons in Smash 64 and PSASBR), "so retro" voxel alts seems like a good one to go for. Not sure how Steve would handle it though, maybe a limited colour palette

ok so the pokemon newspaper comic is the kamp koral conspiracy theory but real.

Wario Wario Wario · Feb 1, 2024

I don't think the Rhythm Heaven character in Smash should be Wandering Samurai or Karate Joe, because their themes are well-trodden and they couldn't work as composites - but I don't think an RH character inherently has to be a composite like Yuka or Barista. MC Adore with a rap/musician moveset or Lumbearjack with an axe moveset would be pristine. Hell, I wouldn't mind Dog Ninja as a duel-wielder swordsman if it needs to be an edgy Japanese warrior.

Wait, pocket calculators weren't a thing until 1970?

OK, "you won't have a calculator everywhere you go!" makes a little more sense now.

So is Shadow Generations just a Bowser's Fury type thing?

Also, I never realised until now that Shadow's run cycle is kinda... dainty and feminine? Maybe I've just been too obsessed with the public domain and now I see everything in 1920s-era stereotypes.

Something funny I realised while looking up info about MissingNo is that it's actually... kind of a vaguely cohesive character? At least by glitch standards. It's found in water and one of its only moves is Water Gun, it's classified as a bird and the other move is Sky Attack while one of its forms is Aerodactyl's skeleton, and it clones your items in RB while it clones yourself in Yellow - there's 3 very solid character traits supported by multiple elements of the glitch: it's a bird, it's aquatic, and it has cloning powers.

BANNED FORBIDDEN PUBLIC DOMAIN CHARACTERS THE PUBLIC DOMAIN SUPERHEROES WIKI IS HIDING FROM YOU

missingno
spot (odie)

(in all seriousness, I totally understand the decision to remove my page on MissingNo, even though i don't agree, given that it only really became a "character" through fandom content - but the Spot removal is a little harder to justify I feel, since the reasoning given was simply a single factual error that could be easily edited out)

WHAT THE **** GARFIELD (jon 1976 version) IS ON THE PUBLIC DOMAIN SUPERHEROES WIKI

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 28, 2024

I don't get the "Game Freak take notes" sentiment with Palworld, isn't everything in this game that doesn't involve sweatshops or guns already in Legends Arceus? Like, I think Palworld has real time battles, but I'd argue turn-based gameplay is just an inseperable element of the Pokemon franchise in the same way that "not having human slavery" is.

i dont think i've laughed this hard at a video game's mere existence since i found out about eastenders on zx spectrum as an 11 year old

I completely forgot that Butch Hartman has like, a weird curing-autism scam charity - as in, I forgot that he was actually a Bad Man and not just a narc who can't take criticism very well

The harm caused by "faking autism" (which literally nobody does, but let's assume they do for the sake of this post) is insignificant compared to the harm caused by accusing people of faking autism.

I was about to post "idea: minnie mouse style pink girl variant character, but it's of an already female character" and then I had an epiphany

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 27, 2024

I think this video is the closest anything has given me to the feeling of stepping into the multiverse and seeing alternate dimensions reflected through shards of glass.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 27, 2024

Callie and Marie are really obvious locks for the next Smash, and I have no clue why they are never brought up, even in a negative light, in speculation. It's equivalent to if nobody was discussing or asking for Bowser between 64 and Melee.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 26, 2024

early-2000s kids will say "THIS IS PROOF THAT THE GAMING PRESS IS CORRUPT AND BIASED!" and then the screencap is a really mundane, harmless warm take like "Rayman 3 was a little underwhelming as a sequel, but still good in its own right." from 2007.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 26, 2024

If Melee had more dev time, from an actual speculative standpoint and not a check-out-my-cool-mod-pack-guise perspective, it'd probably just be 4 more clones and also Little Mac or solo Charizard or something.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 26, 2024

nooo they removed some of my nasb facts

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 25, 2024

If all 7 NASB1 facts I just submitted to VGFacts are approved, it will have as many facts as SSBU, and more than Minecraft and Undertale. It's already exceeded the G1 Pokemon games; Mario 64; Mario World; Overwatch; Street Fighter 2; EarthBound; Skyrim; GTA San Andreas; Final Fantasy 7; Metal Gear Solid; Dark Souls; and League of Legends - and those are from the first 2 "most trivia" pages alone.

Shoutout to Tornado Outbreak.

I watched a YouTube video called "Pizza Tower's Early Music" and the first song is called "Final Boss Part 32" and is a Ran Ran Ruu mashup.

This is gonna be fake as hell lmao

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 25, 2024

I used to be on the "You shouldn't add female/black/e.t.c characters just because they're female/black/e.t.c." train for crossovers until I realised how weird it is that wanting to have a villain just for being a villain or a sidekick just for being a sidekick is considered acceptable and not adding a female or minority character for the exact same reason.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 24, 2024

They should've renamed Palworld to Chompchompworld for the European market

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 24, 2024

holy **** power pro kun in smash. my sequel roster predicted something already.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 23, 2024

I'm kinda tempted to an alternate trophies list for SSBU, where each character not in gameplay has to have at least one official 3D model (with exceptions made for early sprite-based games and stuff like Paper Mario) - I'd probably do it running off of the assumption that Nintendo has all the old DKC/Yoshi's Story/e.t.c. pre-rendered models in their vault, and reuse trophies from Melee..

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 23, 2024

This is gonna sound really petty, but I feel I'd probably be gassing up NASB2 more if people weren't acting like it renders the first game irrelevant or the only reason to go back to the first one is the cut characters.

Wario Wario Wario · Jan 23, 2024

My favourite piece of weird-Mario-lore-with-really-major-implications-that-is-never-discussed-again is easily the Super Happy Tree. I think the idea that matured Yoshis are inherently depressed unless they have a garishly late-90s-kidcore antidep-agent-spewing fruit plant in their proximity is very fascinating.
