I hope there's a boss from Yoshi's Island. This is the last chance to not let me down!!!

Ok, here's a fun slightly depressing game we can play:

Imagine (for many of us, this is a reality) that your favorite(s) are Spirits. How do their battles play out?
Who is the playable character standing in for them?
What costume?
What stage?
What modifiers?

Spoiler: Not too hard to imagine what my most wanted would look like with the red eyes...it is directly from his DLC art.

Versus: , default costume
Stage: Summit
Rules: Simon has high knockback on attacks. Assist Trophies are the only items and spawn infrequently containing only Rathalos

For Tails:

Versus: (orange costume) or (Gunner, 2222, Tails costume)
Stage: Windy Hill Zone
Rules: Character favors aerial attacks. Character has lower gravity and powered-up aerials. Character also has a permanent super leaf.

For Urbosa:

Versus: (Purple/Cyan dress)
Stage: Gerudo Valley
Rules: Paly favors her counter. Lightning (like Pika's dSpecial) strikes the battlefield randomly. Koume/Kotake do not appear.

Demi-fiend:
Vs. Wolf: blue costume
Stage: Find Mii (Omega)
Rules: Wolf is set to 66.6%. His percent cannot be increased, so you have to kill him in unconventional ways. Only combatant assist trophies will spawn occasionally.

Doom Slayer
Vs. Samus: green costume
Stage: Norfair (Battlefield)
Rules: Stamina match. He has 999 hp. Your own HP is set to 666 hp. All hits do twice the damage. Guns spawn throughout the arena, which Samus will pick up. "Demonic" or "Evil" assist trophies spawn occasionally. Samus will not use them. Your side will have 1 HP animal characters spawn indefinitely on your team.

So it turns out this does indeed have a small bit of issue...hmm hope they censor it.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Don't really agree with all the people saying it's not that big of a deal imo... please don't flame me.

Fun fact.

I own the Game & Watch machine that the move is based on.

 

[JacobLeBeauOFFICIAL]

I did some digging on Resetera, and people were saying that if they patch this out, they'll have to patch it out of every region of the game too.

Well duh... that should be obvious.

Was that a pun?

Anyway, I actually agree that I think it might be best to move away from a sensitive topic like that. I think Nintendo should remove the feather, though this is the final build so it would have to be a day 1 patch.

They probably won't change it to a minor removal, otherwise the reference is lost. Best thing to do would be to just revert G&W back to just himself.

 

[Shroob]

No, not really, since certain Switch games have a different build between regions.


Ultimate has one, single build, and other regions probably won't care as much as us in America.


This really will come down to how loud people get.

 

[perfectchaos83]

It seems that characters are either being repped with assists or costumes, not both. Lip, Chibi Robo, Ray, and Saki are all costumes. This could explain why Saki and Ray have been cut, and why an Isaac Mii outfit hasn't been seen

Skull Kid has a Mii Outfit and is an Assist

They say it's easily patchable, but..

I don't know. Whether or not it's actually easy to patch, if you ask me, is dependent on whether or not all of forms are actually flat, or they're still 3D models.

I think Ashley is already a spirit battle...

So here we have the Disney route (ignoring the past) versus the Warner Bros. route (acknowledging the past, but realizing the mistakes and errs in depictions of other races in the past). I don't want to get that much into it since I really don't like discussing this type of stuff.

But seeing as they censored the Inkling Girl "up yours" gesture in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (as with Bowser in Mario RPG), I won't be surprised if they remove the feather.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, here it is

Spoiler: May be obscene to some

 

[Robertman2]

I have now seen one planty boi doing the Fortnight dance.

Yup, I can officially die now. I have seen everything.

you can't say something like that and not link it

 

[PsySmasher]

I don't think Mii Costumes share that same realm of decreasing chances. At this point, almost all of the Mii Costumes, or at least significant ones, have been promoted in some shape and form. Here's a graph from my "Case of Heihachi" post.

We saw the Toad outfit during the direct. It's in the Nintendo Switch Mobile App section.

Savage indian chefs? So indian versions of Gordon Ramsay?

Imagine thinking to yourself that of all characters would be involved in a race-based issue, when the game was first revealed. I wouldn't expect it, and I want this issue to end soon...

 

[CroonerMike]

I hope they don’t patch the Mr. Game and Watch animation.

 

[Atlas2398]

I'm hoping other various modes just haven't been discovered by us yet, like break the targets

I won't be disappointed if they censor it, but at the same time I really wish people didn't get so easily offended by everything nowadays. ResetEra needs to stop trying to police the rest of the Internet and Nintendo. Most people don't care about them.

 

[Deleted member]

Apparently Spawn is gonna talk about The Game Awards. Y'know, for potential DLC fighters for Smash Ultimate.
To be clear, I don't know when. He said he'd talk about that during Smash talk.

We live in the best possible timeline.

 

[Shroob]

Honestly, the thing is, it's really only an issue here in the states. I showed it to several of my Asian and European friends and the reference was completely lost on them.


It'll really come down to how much of a stink this causes here stateside.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Heh, I took (from what I can deduce, anyway) being ignored pretty lightly, but honestly, it is a little disheartening, and there probably are others that have done that, now that I think about it. Oh well, that's what happens when you're infatuated with a green character, and constantly express your love for them... wait.

Please burn this.

I'll be honest, I also don't want it gone. I'm fine with the reference, but I can understand why others don't. The only thing I don't like is that it is understandably unable to be fixed by release, which will possibly make others flame up the company for "ignoring" them or whatever.

I don't quite get what's wrong with it? Some Native Americans were pretty terrible so it shouldn't be a big deal if they have an homage to some dumb old game. What's next? Portraying Germans as Nazi's in WWII games won't be allowed? Oh wait they already banned the swastika in the new battlefield so Idk anymore

 

[JacobLeBeauOFFICIAL]

If they patch it out, the reference would be lost. If they don't, then a lot of people would probably get upset over it.

Pick your poison.

Yeah, I wish people wouldn't get offended over stereotypes that dehumanize and **** on them, the cowards!

 

[Nekoo]

Well... Spawncast are all laughing and talking about the fall about the Grinch leaks and they all says and seems to confirm that Geno is indeed a spirit-

 

[Shroob]

If it gets too bad, they can just change it like they did in the Game and Watch Gallery remake.



But I'm also not super touchy-feely about this kind of stuff to begin with.

Although I do see why some people would be upset...

I wish people didn't get offended by every little reference.

I think I just started hell

 

[Will]

Hate to burst your bubble but Germany actually censors that stuff. It's the same scenario here but the Native Americans are in the Nazi's place because historically we were more ***** to them than the times they were to us.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

No, I did that a long time ago.

Imagine being a spirit!

Yeah, would rather lose a reference instead of leaving a ****ty stereotype in there

 

[SuperSceptile15]

Yeah, I wish people wouldn't get offended over stereotypes that dehumanize and **** on them, the cowards!

Or maybe you and others from ResetEra can learn to grow thicker skin.

 

[Iridium]

I really like to stay away from any topics in games that involve race, as complaints can be wildly inconsistent. Seriously, that animation, from what I hear, is 2 frames. Maybe that fact is wrong, but not everyone around the world is taking this in any amount, but just us, it seems.

Heh, I took (from what I can deduce, anyway) being ignored pretty lightly, but honestly, it is a little disheartening, and there probably are others that have done that, now that I think about it.

What's wrong?

I mean, I get where you're coming from but, should we burn every old Western movie about cowboys and Indians while we're at it.

I'm not saying the past is nice looking, but to just turn a blind eye to "This never happened" is equally just as bad.
