Except his hands/wings are thin in the Star Fox games... Also, he can't fly without an ship, helicopter, or plane... >_>
64 (3D). This and Adventures had the most human-like hands.


Adventures. I really, really wished he had an alt of this.


Assault which is the only one that comes closest to his Brawl and Smash 4 chubby hands. Even then, his fingers are just longer and more spindly than normal people's.


Command which is basically 64 outfit-wise, but with a red jumpsuit and Assault's long fingers. Also, Also, the start of Falco's fingers being more wing-like where starting from his index finger, each finger is shorter than the previous unlike humans whose longest fingers are the middle, ring, index, and pink; Falco's is index, middle, ring, and pinky. This is also the game where they settled on Falco's "hair" (from Adventures's design) and head size until...


Zero with this big-headed bird thing which also has spindly hands instead of long and spindly like in Assault and Command or flat and chubby like in Brawl and Smash 4.
Melee has the wing-styled fingers, but they're not as flappy. This is the closest to Falco's design in Star Fox hands-wise.


Brawl: The Flappy Bird Rises. Look at those flat, chubby fingers. LOOK AT THEM.


Smash 4: Fall of the Flappy Bird.
I kind of don't know why the developers made his wings so flat and chubby. They're funny-looking, but it's kind of weird since the developers don't really change characters that much except for artistic liberty stuff like Captain Falcon's scarf being out instead of tucked inside his suit, the flora designs on Peach's dress, or Meta Knight's collared cape. The only except that I can think of is Wolf, but if you consider Roy's design in Smash 4, then it could be considered a combination of their different designs from different games. For Roy, it's his original design mixed with his Awakening design while Wolf is his Assault design mixed with Star Fox 2's concept which was realized in Project M.

I can only think of one reason and that's to show attacks more easily. I guess it's a way to explain why Wolf wore fingerless gloves to emphasis he's a claw fighter instead of slashing in a weird way with gloved hands if he kept his Assault design. It's a way to show this is what the attack is and this is what it looks like. Then again, Wolf using his claws
would mean he can't wear gloves unless that had claws... Back to Falco, remember Fox's jab? That's kind of small... Now, remember what changed from Melee to Brawl? Falco's jab, Utilt, Side Smash, and Nair all became hand moves instead of kicks. Then comes to issue of his moves are close to his body and they might be afraid people wouldn't be able to see where he's attacking, especially in a game where 4 players can be on-screen and stages can be giant... This problem I blame on the developers giving him moves like this, but whatever. So, how do you fix this? If Falco was taller, his moves might be more visible as he would have more range - Falco's kind of shorter than in Star Fox - or if Falco's attacks were "larger", they would be more visible... And thus, flappy bird Falco was born.

Here's the other thing: in previous Smash games, attack trails were mostly for weapons and elemental stuff like magical moves like Zelda's Utilt or fire moves like Captain Falcon's Raptor Boost... It wasn't until Smash 4 where attack trails were introduced for all characters. So, that kind of begs the question of why now? Falco doesn't need his flappy hands anymore, but then again, almost all of the characters are copy/paste jobs unless they really needed an uplift like Marth "needed" to fit his remake's look. Falco's hands being thinner wouldn't change the "range". It wouldn't change anything except aesthetically. With the trails and Falco's slash hands, Falco's basically Leona and she has attack trails... for her specials and not all of her moves.


There's also another problem... disjoints... Falco's only really got 2: Dtilt and Fair. For Fair, it's kind of not that big of a deal; Fair's landing hit is, but that's another story I'll drill into your heads later. Dtilt kind of is... Falco's already short tail grows during Dtilt, but there's still a disjoint about a third of his tail's length. People don't expect that... People don't expect a thin tail to even have a hitbox. I mean, has anyone been hit by tail feathers? You'd be tickled at best. I don't think it's fair at all for him to have a hitbox like that... Why wasn't it ever changed? Like they could have just reused Wolf's Dtilt animation or something. Hell, borrow Captain Falcon's Dtilt and slap it on Falco. There you go, a Dtilt whose range looks the part. Animation changes are probably never going to happen, but if it was and they needed a quick way to do it... I think Ryu's heavy Dtilt could work.


It's just - I know I'm oversimplifying things - a leg thrust unlike say, resizing Captain Falcon's Dtilt onto Falco. At worse, I could see the disjoint being removed entirely which I think is a fair trade off if they fix Fox's Dtilt hitbox - the tip has no hitbox vs. Falco's tip has a hitbox and some.

Messing around with various customs for Brawler

I think you may be able to true combo UAir into Piston Punch at kill percents. I don't think Helicopter Kick is 100% the best.

I like how most of the customs for the Mii Fighters all have one option that's pretty much garbage.

Morning girls. How's everyone doing? :4zelda:

Had a rude awakening this morning, my throat suddenly started to feel sore, and I couldn't get back to sleep. So I pretty much unintentionally got up early no thanks to a cold. Hopefully I get well soon enough that I don't pass it over to my TA that'll be visiting in a few days. :V

Also, I dunno which matches I should upload that I had against Macchiato Macchiato . D:

Hooray! A gif of Barakamon. :yeahboi:

Also, I might've triggered someone on Miiverse. Because I told them someone took an image of their profile and put it onto KnowYourMeme. :secretkpop:

This is the response I got from him:
https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAAAEVHhosolFtQ (Funny thing is. This guy hates anyone who uses grabs in Smash. I have no words on how salty he is about grabs which are a core mechanic in Smash. He must really hate Mario, Falcon and ZSS then. When he should obviously be learning on how much Zelda needs to be banned. :secretkpop: )

It disappoints me how Detective Pikachu acts nothing like a Pikachu.

Still looks like it will be fun. I'll be picking it up when it (hopefully) comes out in the U.S.

I kind of feel like that's the point like how Meowth in the anime doesn't act like other Meowths. In Detective Pikachu's case, I really, really want Ving Rhames or someone with a really deep voice to voice act him in the NA localization. I hope they don't go high-pitched on us... That'll kill me.
