Nintendo Power Andross:

Two times orphaned incel who was once one of the most respected medical minds in the planet.

Canon Andross:

Invented weapons, got angry his weapons weren't actually being used by anyone, started a war because of it.

ClayMates and Jelly Boy have the exact opposite problems - one's too fast with its "Blaze Processing" and the other is too slow.

I made a roster for an alternate universe first Smash game, and sorted it into the trailers each character would be revealed in

Spoiler

REVEAL TRAILER (the utterly mandatory heavy hitters, plus two iconic yet unexpected retros to shake things up)
Mario
Link
Mewtwo
Kirby
DK
King Hippo
Inkling
Scent Hound

SECOND TRAILER: (more heavy hitters, but not as big as the first reveal - a few crowd pleasers but no true surprises)
Samus
Bowser
Peach
Zelda
Ganon
Fox
Olimar

THIRD TRAILER (a mix of surprising and expected picks, no real "hype" reveals)
King Dedede
Prince of Sablé
Muddy Mole
Yoshi
Onix
Mii

FOURTH TRAILER: (the most strange and surprising inclusions of them all for the most part, along wih a popular Pokémon so people with surface level knowledge can still get something out of the trailer)
Andross
Bubbles
Who Are You Running From?
Jill & Drill Dozer
The Amazon
Squirtle

FINAL TRAILER (the cult characters a lot of players would have wanted but not expected - ending with Villager as the final reveal to resolve the inevitable "could an Animal Crossing character fight?" debate right before launch)
Wario
Chibi Robo
Mike Jones
Tingle
Genesect
Paula
Waluigi
Villager

"Ugh, Game Freak were so lazy using low-poly trees! Why couldn't they be more like hard working Daddy Sakurai?"
"Daddy" Sakurai:

I should also bring up how weird it looks when you stage morph into Battlefield Mario Maker, though I couldn't find an image of it.

The negative impact McDonald's deals have had on outside media is immense,

• McDonald's got Sonic 3 split in two
• McDonald's censored Batman Returns and prevented Tim Burton from working with the IP in future
• McDonald's got Camp Lazlo cancelled
• McDonald's is supposedly responsible for sexing up Lola Bunny

There are probably tons of other examples of this sorta thing I don't know about.

Damn, people on the Smash Infinite thread genuinely believe letting people pay for something when they don't know what they're paying for isn't inherently predatory.

A lot of my most wanted Smash fighters you could never do the heart emoji "let X fans be happy!" thing with because they literally do not have fanbases. If you try to tweet "let Mole Mania fans be happy! " you'd be written off as insane by even the most toxic optimists and devoted Mole Maniacs.

In hindsight I really don't understand why 1-year-ago me brought the Min Min DLC. At least with Byleth I can say I got suckered by capitalism and take a little less of the blame, buying Minjamin Minjamin was 100% on me.

I think that if there was to be an Xbox crossover it shouldn't be a platform fighter, or a fighter at all. I think it should be the first earnest attempt at making a true competitive kart racer (that isn't a mod at least)

Digimon fans realising it's scientifically possible for a human brain's neurons to create a more positive reaction to an anthropomorphic garbage bag than it does for a bipedal tiger with 5 eyes and 20 gattling guns on its knees alone.

One thing that makes me a bit happy is that Bowser's Nintendo does seem to listen to backlash - Skyward Sword and the Zelda G&W aren't limited, and they haven't touched competitive Smash to my knowledge since the Big House drama, even cancelling their official Smash tournaments they have no clue how to run. It's probably just for damage control money, but just as good intent doesn't justify bad actions, ill intent doesn't dull the effects of good deeds.

I've been writing an achievements list for my planned game, and I feel I may have to explain the "beat the game in a single sitting without pausing, idling, going to the home screen, taking damage or dying while using a negative-effect cheat code" achievement in court some day

•

I was just thinking "why don't they make a game where cheat codes are a central mechanic?" - but almost instantly realised that'd just be a traditional fighting game.

I've been watching Nick Knacks by Poparena a lot - it's basically a retrospective of Nickelodeon history that reviews all the shows, original or aquired, and analyses their place in a corporate television ecostructure, it's doing every show and hasn't even got to the Nicktoons yet! - and honestly it is such a breath of fresh air to see someone give equal amounts of both criticism and praise for all these shows that people either worship on a pedistal or brush aside as timeslot filler. It'll likely be years from now before he gets to these shows but videos for stuff like Breadwinners, Fred, and Butt Ugly Martians will be really interesting.

Smash needs more remixes like this. Unlike anything you'd ever hear in its origin games to give people who like the Splatoon stage but not the music an option, a genre rarely seen in games at all (Ska), and energetic without being overly "hype"-r.

Making attacks for Peach and Zelda back in Melee must've been pretty hard. Fighting game attacks need to be distinct and recognisable in silhouette so doing that with a long dress must've been a pain. (This applies to a lesser extent Rosalina in 3DS/Wii U - she floats and has a slightly shorter dress so she wouldn't be as hard to desgin for I imagine)

Perhaps that's why they held off on giving Daisy any unique moves.

If I had more patience I'd try playing every Smash stage with every possible number of fighter to determine the optimal playercount for them - as I've often stood by a lot of the infamously bad Smash stages as being more fun with the right number of players (75M is better with 8 players and Pac-Land is better with 2 or 3 for example)

I think that if CP11 is delayed and we don't get them by 2021, I can almost gaurantee it's an ActiBlizz rep. Probably Tracer or Crash, but Captain Price could be possible too. Spyro has a snowball's chance in hell though given his unique JP situation.

People who think the actions and culture of certain employees and higher-ups of ActiBlizz should have any impact on potential Activision content Smash content are stupid - yes, it's insulting, but it's also the truth. I'mma go through a few reasons

1. Not all Activision employees are bad - in fact, that's the whole crux of this controversy: Acti employees getting harassed by other Acti employees. It's not fair to disregard their hard work and characters just because of this temporary lawsuit that will likely be resolved eventually, even if it takes years.
2. Crash/Spyro/Tracer/Price in Smash would be pocket change to 72 billion dollar Acti - and that's if individual sales even go to Bobby and co. I frankly don't know whether companies pay Nintendo for their characters and keep the sales profits or Nintendo pays them and keep the sales profits, but either way this will make no change for better or worse to the ActiBizz "empire" and just be a tiny bit of money for a company that's always gonna make lods of emone no matter how big the boycott. Smash is big, but CoD is bigger.
3. Nintendo are also terrible, at least from an external treatment of customers standard. You've already fed the mouths that bite you, and there's no shame in that. Corporations are scummy, that's systemic and requires a systemic response - I'm not saying ActiBlizz'z crimes should go ignored or unaccounted for mind you, but rather that we as customers can't achieve much more than a futile victory that causes temporary change unless we aim for the entire industry structure and not just Activision/Valve/Nintendo/EA/whoever the punching bag is this month.
4. This is Crash specific (could apply to Spyro too): Crash may be Activision's property, but he isn't a character who comes to mind when you think Activision. Adding Crash would not be honouring Activision - it would be honouring Naughty Dog, Beenox, Traveller's Tales, Vicarious Visions, Toys for Bob, Radical, King and all the other talented development teams who have made Crash the legend he is today, not the corporate guys who tell those devs what they can make and when. As far as I can tell the harassment has only happened at Acti and Blizz, not Acti's subsidaries - and Acti's subsidaries deserve to have respect on their names.

I didn't grow up with Minecraft, so the short Enderman in Smash doesn't come off as that weird to me, in fact regular Enderman is weirder if anything
