Players: 206/240. I missed: Vidjogamer, Captain Jack, Masashi, Adam, Calle W, Makenshi, Poilon, Wife, Lambchops, Colbol, Forward, NES n00b, Chexr, Tink, Falcomist, DEHF, Zgetto, Hack, Aldwyn, Faab, Weon-x, Teczero, Eddy Mexico, Bizarro Flame, DoH, G$, Vwins, Bladewise, Frootloop, Eggm, and DJ Nintendo. My strategy was to think of each top-mid tier character and then think of the major players for each one.
Stages: 27/29. I missed: Onett, Fourside. I thought of each franchise and then what stages it has, but I totally forgot about Ness, rofl. I would let the person add "64" to the end of the stage for the past stages to work btw.
Items: I did not read the stipulation of items not spawned by normal means being included, so yeah, I didn't try any of those. But I got 29/41, which means 29/34 of the normal items. Missed: Super Mushroom, Poison Mushroom, Freezie (remembered its existence but couldn't remember name, kept thinking Mr. Freeze l0l), Warpstar, Lip's Stick (remembered its existence but couldn't remember name...). Also Barrel Cannon is missing. It's a separate item from Barrel.
Anybody wanna be sadistic and do trophies?

. Actually I think the official names of Special Moves could be fun. I'd own that ****
