somehow my notifications stopped for this thread, and I’m finding it hilarious that we got Photo Man (I’ve always liked the idea, and it’s actually the exact EarthBound assist I would have submitted, with roughly the same effect)

Submit an echo fighter originating from the Earthbound series. Please submit the echo fighter and who they’re an echo of.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Kumatora

Lucas' echo. She's stronger but slower and heavier, and of course has more of a mean attitude. She borrows Duster's wall staples for her throws. Her disguise is featured as an alt cosume, complete with a unique "Violet!" announcer call. She appears slightly older than her SSBU iteration, but not as a fully grown adult either. She summons Duster and Salsa for her PSI Starstorm

i was thinking the magypsies for her fs cameo but... you know

[Champion of Hyrule]

Actually Duster would be the assist because he got more votes.

You’re right, sorry everyone. I just got confused while counting the votes because they were on seperate pages, Duster will be the assist trophy

Anyways with that, we’re finished with Earthbound content and onto F-Zero content. You all can submit up to four music tracks and here’s the voting for the echo fighter:

Should F-Zero Get An Echo? - StrawPoll

What is your opinion? Vote now: Yes, No

And here’s the next job:
Job #55: Submit An F-Zero Stage
Submit a stage originating from F-Zero. Please submit a location and a layout.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Job 55:

Outer Space (F-Zero AX)

​

Outer Space is a track from F-Zero AX and it takes place in outer space, possibly near Earth or Earth-like planet. It was used to be a space colony, but it turned itself into a racetrack.

The stage would take place on the aforementioned course. The players fight on F-zero cars and it would be similar to Mute City SNES, but with Mute city melee physics. Also the meteorites can hit the track, damaging cars and players. Each meteorite deals 10% damage.

I think this stage could make sense, since another space-based stage wouldn't be bad idea, especially it's a F-Zero one.

 

[Northsouthmap]

Job 55: Hailing from the F-Zero universe is Red Canyon, an iconic track usually associated in conjunction with Samurai Goroh. This could obviously be the potential home stage for a playable Samurai Goroh, so not much else needs to be said there.

Your main platform will be the central F-Zero racer, which will change among various cars throughout the series. Since many have different designs the platform itself can change considerably depending upon which car is available at that moment. Some have "fins", curved wings, rounded hulls, splits, or are just plain flat. You never know what to expect, so the arena is always fluid, keeping you on your toes.

Cars will speed up or drop back alongside the main car, acting as extra platforms, which allow the area of the battlefield to expand. However, if a car appears to be speeding up make sure to switch out before it drops you! Sometimes other racers will "accidentally" bump into another, causing the car (and thus platform) to shift and sway. So always be mindful of the surrounding racers. Thus is the nature of high stakes racing.

At certain points in the stages cycle the racers will jump off ramps which will reduce the gravity. Allowing characters to jump higher/fall slower similar to Pirate Ship/Tornado and Pokémon Stadium 2 "Flying" mode.

[Champion of Hyrule]

Okay so since we’re close to the point where we do Ice Climber content, I was thinking we would make it so that Nintendo 80s arcade games that didn’t spawn into series later down the line would be eligible, would everyone be alright with that?

I have some ideas for future series that aren’t that big too, R.O.B. would be nintendo hardware, Wii Fit would be all Wii series games, and Duck Hunt would be lightgun games that aren’t part of bigger series. Would that be alright too?

 

[Champion of Hyrule]

We will give F-Zero an echo fighter. Here’s the poll for stages:

Job #57: Submit An F-Zero Assist Trophy
Submit an assist trophy from the F-Zero series. Please submit the assist trophy and how it works.

 

[Deleted member]

Pico
He'll run around with his blaster and shoot, firing out classic sci-fi style beams.

 

[Northsouthmap]

Assist trophy: Octoman
As an Assist Trophy, this anthropomorphic cephalopod begins to dance, gyrating and waving his tentacles. If an enemy gets near, he angrily grabs them, lifting them as he continues dancing. The grabbed character takes no damage in Octoman’s grip, but, in their state of restraint, they can be attacked by other players. Just make sure that, if you’re one of those other players, to not get too close to Octoman. He has four arms; one for each player (okay, he has six, but they’re retractable).
