Smashboards Creates: Pop Culture Clash

[ssbashworld]

Harry Potter

Not much to say, huge franchise with lots of material to pull from that could translate great to a fighting game.

 

[AlRex]

The Mario poll further up on page 3 still needs votes, currently we have a threeway tie of one vote on three options each. Also more ideas for Mickey's moveset, though we can probably get more back to that after I put up the voting options for book characters, so as to not muddle everything together. If not, I may just default to my original Mario super idea + a mix of two deviantArt movesets for Mickey.

 

[AlRex]

I think I've finalized Mario and Mickey, unless anyone has any objections. Now for the vote on book characters.
Tankman from Newgrounds Gandalf (Lord of the Rings)
Champion of Hyrule Sherlock Holmes
@Darkonedagger Dracula
Yiptap Greg Heffley (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)
evanwoo10 Martin Brody (Jaws)
BonafideFella The Headless Horseman
Wario Wario Wario Velociraptor (Jurassic Park)
AlRex Miss Frizzle (The Magic School Bus)

My personal votes
1. Dracula
2. Gandalf
3. Sherlock Holmes
There are a lot of good options here, though.

I think, just about, I can call this for Dracula now. Congrats, once again, to @Darkonedagger !

Now Dracula is pretty tricky. The book, the Universal Monsters series and its various permutations, Castlevania, Hotel Transylvania, Marvel, DC, etc. all paint a pretty different picture. I would say when submitting content related to him, mostly focus on things that have a primary focus on Dracula, either as the major protagonist or antagonist. You could maybe submit stuff related to Blade, but I wouldn't use that as an excuse to start submitting every Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, Defenders, etc. member. Moveset could be a mix of versions and his generally agreed upon powers, and, hypothetically, if we ever want to talk about alt. costumes, there's definitely a lot to work with.

Now for...
Job #11: Submit an item from any of the currently represented series.
We have no items yet! So we could submit an item, of any sort of kind, from Superman, Mickey Mouse, Dragon Ball, Mario, Muppets, Star Wars, or Dracula media. Depending on how this goes, we could end up with two added from this job, but we'll see.

 

[AlRex]

Lightsaber (Star Wars)

These are pretty much the Beam Swords from Smash Bros., but now they are officially what they were referencing instead of being a cheap knock-off. They make the proper noises and everything.

Senzu Bean (Dragon Ball)
A rare, highly-effective healing item. These will heal at least 90% of damage, proportionally, and will rid you of any status ailments, as well. However, they're small and somewhat easy to miss, adding to them not being the easiest to get.

 

[AlRex]

Dracula-related profiles I’ll add to the OP in a bit.

1. Dracula (Fighter Profile)
2. Renfield
3. Dracula’s Brides
4. Van Helsing
5. Mina Harker
6. Frankenstein’s Monster
7. Dr. Frankenstein
8. Igor
9. Bride of Frankenstein
10. Imhotep (The Mummy)
11. Rick O’Connell [Yes, indeed, Brendan Fraser]
12. Larry Talbot (The Wolfman)
13. Gillman (The Creature from the Black Lagoon)
14. The Phantom of the Opera
15. The Invisible Man
16. The Belmont Clan
17. Alucard (Castlevania)
18. The Grim Reaper
19. Count Orlock [AKA Nosferatu]
20. Blade
21. Blacula
22. Count Chocula, FrankenBerry, and Boo Berry [because I can]

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Job 11:
Super Mushroom (Mario)

It acts like in Smash, which you grow higher and you become more heavier.

Kryptonite (Superman)

The item could make anyone weaker when thrown at someone, like it could make Superman weaker and unable to fight for seconds.This item can weaken you by accident when you do misinput for throwing Kryptonite at Someone.

[AlRex]

I did some alternate costumes, may add to this as time goes on, or as more characters get added. People can feel free to submit their own ideas, especially when more characters are added. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Jd0xHLg7GE4tuTc_ZZvTerQsjOjAohDxZSSq4QQTfuQ/edit

Gonna leave items open for a few more submissions, but will most likely close it some time tomorrow.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Can I submit song for Others category like Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny?

 

[Oddball]

Thinking up costumes for Dracula, I was trying to come up with designs that weren't just "guy in a black suit" looks where you can tell who you're playing ata glance and won't get confused when the action sets in.

Here's what I came up with. Granted, some of these are a bit obscure.

Spoiler: Bela Lugosi

I wants the blacks on him to be slightly faded, giving him a more black and white movie feel.)

Spoiler: Christopher Lee

His blacks are blacker, his skin more skin toned, and a bright red lining will help seperate him from Bela

Spoiler: Vlad the Impaler

Spoiler: Marvel's Dracula

Done in a comicbook styled vibrant blue color.

Spoiler: Gary Oldman in Armor

Although I'd still want to add a cape to it. Dracula just needs a cape

Spoiler: Little Dracula

The bright green skin, purple highlights and yellow cape are original, although he should probabaly have the same human proportions as the others

Spoiler: Real Ghostbusters figure

Still easily identifiable as Dracula, but the blue suit and light blue skin set him apart from the rest

Spoiler: leather Dracula

leather pants, no shirt, long hair, this is by far a more punk Dracula than the others. I'd also add a ragged torn up cape thrown across his shoulders like Tetsuo in Akira.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I feel that instead of Blacula, we should use Billy and Mandy's Dracula - heavily inspired by Blacula, but more recent and therefore easily recognisable to the teen-to-young adult audience that generally plays games like this (even if less historically significant) - also more distinct with his grey hair; red cape; and cartoonish art style

Disregard this, I feel this is a bad idea with a bit of hindsight as Blacula is a more important part of the overall Dracula film canon than B&M.

For a Mario alt submission, may I suggest the Mario 3 version of Fire Mario? That's one of the alts I'm surprised Smash has never done

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

For my submission, I could want to see Builder Mario alt and Clark Kent outfit (taken notably from Fortnite).

 

[AlRex]

Added a lot of the costumes suggested here, as well as a few new ones to that doc.

I suppose we’ll also have a vote for items now:
AlRex Lightsaber (Star Wars)
AlRex Senzu Bean (Dragon Ball)
Tankman from Newgrounds Super Mushroom (Mario)
Tankman from Newgrounds Kryptonite (Superman)

Vote for 2 of these. I think only one will be chosen for now due to the small amount of submissions.

My personal votes
1. Kryptonite
2. Lightsabers

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

1. Lightsaber
2. Mushroom

 

[AlRex]

Can I submit song for Others category like Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny?

I’ll open things up for “Other” songs, as well. Probably not “Other” profiles until the roster’s fully decided, though.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

1. Lightsaber
2. Super Mushroom

Some Songs for Others:
1. Weird Science - Oingo Boingo
2. Gangsta's Paradise - Coolio
3. PSY - Gangnam Style (Screw BTS anyway)
4. Duck Hunt Medley (SSB4 & Ultimate Mixed together)
5. One Punch Man opening theme
6. Married Life - Up

[AlRex]

I could not forgot good old Soulja Boy.
I think the way things are currently trending will remain steady, here are the votes as of now:
Lightsaber: 14
Kryptonite: 2
Mushroom: 6
Senzu Bean: 1
So I think, for now, the Lightsaber and the Super Mushroom will be added in a bit. Congrats to Tankman from Newgrounds , as well.

As for Sonic, I’ll probably save all of his songs for later and if/when he gets added. For now…

Job #12: Submit a stage for Mickey Mouse and/or Mario.
For Mickey: anything from his cartoons, comics, or other media is eligible. Theme park locations could be, as well, provided they aren’t specifically tied to another, very different series. The Electrical Parade, perhaps, but Star Tours or even Pirates of the Caribbean? Probably not. For Mario: anything from his games, or outside Mario-based media is eligible. Probably hold off on spin-offs like Donkey Kong or Wario for this, and it goes without saying Zelda, Metroid, Pokémon, etc. aren’t eligible here either.

 

[Butters Stotch]

Job 12:

Submitting World 1-1 as the Mario stage. It's the same as Mushroomy Kingdom from Smash, except the World 1-2 section is gone and the graphics are sprite-based to match the original game.
