So like I'm a bit late to the party but why do you think Nintendo just released 7 whole games for NES NSO, usually they just stick to two or three.

Are they upping what's being added at a time due to fan demand?

Did they forget they had like 5 good to go NES games laying around and just paste them onto what would've been a purely rare game update?

Is this a last hurrah for NES NSO games? And if so why couldn't they get Battletoads?

Am I thinking way too deeply about this?

What's your hypothesis?

The Angry Birds Movie gave me trust issues

I can't tell if I'm being too nice to Funko Fusion because I'm desperate for a new game in the TT Lego game style or if people are being too harsh on it because Funkos are obnoxious.

A while ago I had a dream that I watched a Musical about the Video Game Crash and I'm so glad I can't remember any of the songs cuz like I can just tell it would be the most cringe inducing thing on the planet from concept alone.

Mario?

Would a platform fighter where you only have 3 HP work

Been having the worst luck today

Did you know David Hayter, voice of Solid Snake, WROTE the first xmen movie (and co-wrote the second)

A lot of public domain talk seems to be going on so I have a great idea for how to improve it.

Every year each major company has to submit 5 major properties to a wheel, it's spun three times and whatever it lands on becomes public domain.

And it's a huge six hour live event

MartianSnake · Jun 6, 2024

They should add Atom Ant to multiversus

MartianSnake · May 31, 2024

I think a "smashboards creates a live service platform fighter" would be a fun thread, despite the controversy with live service games.

MartianSnake · May 29, 2024

I really thought people would be really interested in indie stuff but ever since I started Indiepalooza in the Brawl of Fame thread I feel like it's taken a serious dip in interest.

MartianSnake · May 26, 2024

Consider a pokemon trainer platform fighter moveset that contains no pokemon, and it's about throwing pokeballs at opponents, ramming your bike into people, and using EXP share to boost the strength on yourself and allies in a team match.

MartianSnake · May 26, 2024

I wanna talk about alt costumes in my next Disney Platform Fighter Thought Dump™️ but I'm worried it'd be too boring or something.

MartianSnake · May 26, 2024

If I were in charge of MultiVersus the majority of Scooby-Doo Content would hail from Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed and I'm NOT kidding.

Don't tell me the Coolsonian Criminology Museum wouldn't be an amazing stage and Shizzy McCreepy wouldn't be an amazing skin for Shaggy.

MartianSnake · May 23, 2024

I had the best idea for a smashboards createss thread but it's sadly seasonal.

MartianSnake · May 23, 2024

I said this in the Multiversus thread but there's something off about how Multiversus writes Velma and I can't fully articulate what it is.

Anyone else feel similar?

MartianSnake · May 21, 2024

One roster-building mindset I occasionally have that's hard to break out of is an insistence that iconic duos need to share a slot when they could easily work as individual fighters.

MartianSnake · May 20, 2024

Would it kill for the major multiversus trailers to include gameplay?

MartianSnake · May 20, 2024

Ok I'm making a Roster and I need to ask

How would you handle a Shark in a platform fighter, a normal shark

How would he move?

MartianSnake · May 20, 2024

They should put me in multiversus I could beat up the joker

MARTIANSNAKE'S BIG DISNEY PLATFORM FIGHTER THOUGHT DUMP PROJECT. Part 6:

It is now time to talk television. Specifically, the Disney Afternoon! A programming block with a lot of nostalgia tied to it, enough that a handful of characters originating from it (or simply propped up by it) can feel like obligatory inclusions for big crossovers like a platform fighter.

Looking at things from a realistic POV, a disney afternoon rep fits perfectly in a venn diagram between "obvious inclusion" and "fans will campaign for this character endlessly". Especially the first character I've got lined up...

Darkwing Duck - He is the terror that flaps in the night! He is the Yellow Devil that interrupts your fight! He is Darkwing Duck! ahem. A fairly obvious choice, I feel. If you had to pick just one television original character for the game I feel the choice would quickly narrow down to Darkwing and a certain egg-laying mammal of action. His moveset wouldn't be too out there outside of various moves utilizing different types of gas from his Gas Gun. Most applying some sort of status or effect on the opponent.
Negaduck - Here's a fun pick. I'm growing rather fond of discussing "parallel characters" for this project, so here's another. Negaduck shares his physical attacks with Darkwing, but most gadget-using moves would be swapped with guns, chainsaws, stuff of that sort. Negaduck's a fun choice for a Roster if you're looking for a slightly deeper cut for the Disney Afternoon, but you don't wanna get too deep or use too much dev time.
Goliath (Gargoyles) - So Gargoyles is a popular show, I see it brought up a decent amount in disney platform fighter discussions. Goliath wouldn't be a complicated character gameplay-wise. He's a big heavy hitter with wings and sometimes that's all you need.
Baloo (TaleSpin) - Earlier I passed on repping Jungle Book with a character, fully intent on going with the Talespin side of things instead. Baloo would have a few moves/taunts/alts based on jungle book, but the large majority is based around Talespin. A lot of his moveset would revolve around throwing and placing propellers around. These would create windboxs able to push around opponents and recover yourself and allies. I'm rather fond of essentially casting Baloo as some kind of wind elemental for this.
Wildwing Flashblade (Mighty Ducks: the Animated Series) - Yep, I'm doing it. This bulky character would bring a hockey inspired moveset to the table, along with some much needed EXTREME 90s aesthetic. Mighty Ducks isn't a show with a particularly strong nostalgic following, but look. It's funny. I think it'd be a welcome surprise if presented correctly.
And finally, the moment you've been waiting for...
Doug (Disney's Doug) - Ah yes, the Cloud of disney platform fighter. I just think it's really really funny to put Doug in a disney game. Disney owns Doug, they gave him a second show, they gave him a movie, they gave him a play in the disney parks. But everyone and their mom associates Doug more with nick, Disney included, probably! I'm gonna be real. I don't have a single gameplay idea for him. I just couldn't resist adding Doug regardless.

And there you have it! Gizmoduck was considered for the longest time, but I just wasn't feeling it in the end. Hope you like my ideas! If you have any thoughts, let me know! Thoughts motivate me.

MartianSnake · May 19, 2024

My most wanted character for Multiversus is probably Weird Al

I don't think he has any super big warner connections but he shows up anywhere and it would be funny

MartianSnake · May 18, 2024

Selections for the next part of my disney platform fighter thought dump have been finalized

MartianSnake · May 18, 2024

So I was wrong about Multiversus having themed seasons, no biggie. I still think it'd be a cool idea

MartianSnake · May 18, 2024

The lines preventing me from adding a mighty ducks animated series character to my Disney Platform Fighter project are getting frighteningly thin.

MartianSnake · May 17, 2024

It just hit me that the Create a Crossover Fighter thread has specific rules regarding roster size and such on the first page that everyone (including the thread creator themself) has elected to just ignore.

MartianSnake · May 17, 2024

Anyone feel like platfighter fans are wayyyyy too eager to call something a joke character?
Especially from within smash, I've seen people say Wii Fit Trainer, Game & Watch, and ROB are all joke characters when like... no? They're not? Am I crazy one here?

MartianSnake · May 17, 2024

Oh wow https://youtu.be/sT1zXiYqcfA?si=SQM2UY-yeFEFBuSz

MartianSnake · May 14, 2024

After Brawl of Fame is done who's up for Smashboards Creates: Brawl of Fame Tennis

MartianSnake · May 13, 2024

This is the only who would win scenario that matters.

Presented in the context of a traditional Looney Tunes style short, who would come on top in a clash?

Bugs Bunny or Road Runner?

This is not a death battle, I am not looking for a list of feats. When two looney tunes clash, one must come out on top, who can make a bigger fool out of the other?

HyperSomari64 · May 12, 2024

Is obvious that your Disney Platform Fighter project will have guest characters.
But, are they going to be biased random stuff you like, or, the most obvious option, the ones that had history with Disney?

Inspector Gadget: for a short period, Disney acquired DIC after getting ABC/Capital Cities.
The Power Rangers: They also had at one point, after acquiring the original Saban.
Woody Woodpecker: Apparently he was the first (and only) character that was approved during the disastrous pre-production of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

MartianSnake · May 11, 2024

Gonna pull a cloud in smash 4 with this upcoming Disney Platform Fighter ideas post

Just not in the way you'd expect.

MartianSnake · May 11, 2024

If you wanna make a realistic platform fighter roster first you need to find a character that fans are going to view as essential to the game, even if that's not really true.

Take that character, and don't add them to the game, always leave them wanting more.

MartianSnake · Apr 28, 2024

Concept: Kirby Fighters but with Mario

Like, all the characters are forms or personas of mario, nobody else is playable until the sequel and even then it's just Luigi Bowser Peach Toad and Wario

MartianSnake · Apr 26, 2024

I don't care what anyone says, to me Air Bud is the Banjo-Kazooie of Disney Platform Fighters.

I will not elaborate.

MartianSnake · Apr 26, 2024

One of the last things I remember disney infinity doing was announcing Baloo for the game, but fans could vote on whether they wanted classic animated baloo or live action baloo

I am downright miserable Animated baloo won, I would've given my lungs and liver to just see a photorealistic bear in disney infinity

MartianSnake · Apr 26, 2024

Making a realistic typical smash roster seems like a real burden, which I why I don't bother and instead try to find dumb gimmicks that'll give me an excuse to add Kamek to the roster.

MartianSnake · Apr 25, 2024

Platform Fighter with a paper mario-like audience mechanic, they reward you super meter charges in exchange for cool combos and throw pity items to you if you're doing poorly.

Occasionally the audience will request specific actions of you, do them successfully in time for extra special rewards.

MartianSnake · Apr 22, 2024

Fortnite news reminded me of when the devs behind one of the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games (I think) asked Nintendo to feature Fox and Samus (again, I think) as guest characters on Nintendo systems but it got rejected because they showed Nintendo the prototypes for the characters on a playstation system.
