DK's stage representation in Smash is so weird to me - jungles are only really that heavily featured in 3 of the main DK platformers (DKC, DK64, and DKCR), yet they take up all but one of DK's stages. Why not use the crystal mines? the neon pirate theme park? the bramble maze in the sky? the balloon-filled lava cavern? the pirate ship's stormy mainbrace? the giant beehive? and those are from one game alone! DK is a series that lives and dies on atmosphere so having every DK stage be in a jungle and a majority of the music be either jazzy jungle music or a boss theme makes them seem more like a representation of Donkey Kong merchandise than Donkey Kong itself.

Here's how I would handle a new Yoshi game:

Cut out (no pun intended) the arts and crafts look. I'd personally go for something more Disney or Ghibli-esque.
Bring back tough-but-fair difficulty - I'm not worried about isolating the kid audience, have you seen how much kids go crazy for Cuphead? This would also include giving mellow mode the axe, though wings could come back as a power up.
Expand Yoshi's base moveset beyond just the YI moveset, albeit only slightly. His headbutt fair from Smash could work quite well I feel.
Give the vehicle forms a little more prominence, but make it so any obstacle you can overcome while morphmated you can also tackle in dinosaur form, even if it's a little trickier.
Bring back the Mario 2 and Yoshi's Story casts and have them coexist with the existing Yoshi's Island cast - maybe even have Wart as the villain instead of Kamek. The Story characters would require major redesigns however, given they're very tacky design-wise.
Bring back the Yoshi rescuing system from Woolly World and having multiple babies like in DS. I'd love to add Baby Daisy and Baby Waluigi in some form
Try to have individual stages be memorable for certain non-aesthetic aspects, such as a surplus of a rare enemy or a one-stage-only gimmick.
Reduce the amount of backtracking, especially in castle levels.
Ditch the flutter jump. It can still be animated as Yoshi flapping his legs, but make him more nimble and easy to control when double-jumping
Likely the most potentially controversial change here, but give players control over their eggs' aim rather than having to wait for it to line up.

Jim Henson: "The Muppets are not made for children, they're made for adults but just so happen to be appropriate for children to enjoy"

18 years later

Jim Henson's son: "OK, so what if... we did the Muppets... but they kill each other and have sex? I am willing to commit to 10 years of development hell as to make sure this project sees the light of day."

As we all know, the Muppets never had any sex and violence before that point.

MVPerry is the YouTube equivalent to Kim Kardashian - famous just for being famous. You wouldn't think that'd be remotely possible on a platform that prioritises content over who makes it or how, but showbiz finds a way.

I love how the credits version of Will Smith's Friend Like Me implies that the genie not only directly contributes to climate change, but that he does it intentionally and that is a good thing.

I hate how Alpharad popularised calling Vince from Art Academy "Vincent".

OK, there's actually a lot of things I hate that Alpharad did, but this is #1.

This showed up in my recommended, and for something clearly made by a pre-teen it is extremely impressive - might be one of the best takes on the Mario Party DS Anti-Piracy/scary disclaimer meme I've seen. I still think the Nintendogs and Teletubbies ones are the best though.

I don't watch football, so I can't really speak for the culture and such, but I don't get why people root for their country's team and not the team they think is the most talented.

Started that creation thread I said I shouldn't do. Hope it gets some attention.

SmashBoards creates: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: The Stages Pass

Sakurai is done with Smash for a good decade, but Nintendo wants to keep the ball rolling, so they've hired new recruits - Sakurai isn't trusting enough to let us make new fighters, so we're making 50 stages instead and releasing them under the shared umbrella of the Stages' Pass! The current...

I want to start a "Smashboards Creates: SSBU Stages' Pass" thread but I'm having a hard enough time running the Animated Smash Bros. thread so I'm not sure if having a second (active) thread would be good.

I just realised "Ice Capades" is a pun on "escapades" and there is actually no such thing as a "capade".

Instead of making Space Jam 2, they should've just compiled an hour and a half of the HBO Max Looney Tunes Cartoons, put them in theatres, and gave them the advertising budget of a full feature length film.

There is a reason I'm not the CEO of a soulless conglomerate.

Most instances of "flanderisation" when it comes to Japanese characters are just said characters getting more accurately localised when people have adjusted to their American versions. Whether that's for better or for worse is up to you, but don't call it flanderisation.

A character I think would have a really interesting effect on the speculation scene is PaRappa the Rapper. He is, in my eyes, the one character who would most clear as day illustrate "Smash is no longer just about Nintendo." as not only is he owned by Sony with no Nintendo appearances, but there is also a relatively popular Nintendo IP with the same genre and a similar aesthetic to PaRappa. PaRappa would also break a lot of Smash fans out of the console war trance of Nintendo being the "only innovators" and "the only ones who don't make gritty shooters all the time" given how historically significant PtR is to gaming and its cute, silly style.

Every time I watch the Space Jam 2 trailers, I can recognise some sort of blank spot where Pepe le Pew was probably supposed to be placed in almost every group shot.

I'd love to see more serious (or at the very least actually funny) videos talking about topics like multi-game cartridges; used game boxes; demakes and cross-generation releases; so on.
