FLUDD is the most important move in Smash because it teaches new players not to overrely on offensive manouvers.

wish i had musical knowledge (specifically in relation to obsolete consumer-grade midi formats) because my siivagunner rips would be fire.

If Ganondorf gets reworked, he should stay a bruiser, just a different execution of the same concept.
I like how the aesthetic and theming of Antonblast feels like it's intentionally trying to be "a 7 year old's superficial idea of what adults like". "Yeah, there's beer, and casinos, and Satan, and graffiti, and butts..." it's kinda sweet in a bit of a twisted way.
where is that youtube thumbnail where it's mickey screaming and at the top it says "WII GAME"
getting back to playing antonblast and oh my god is the mall level a tribute to keystone kapers? rad.
haven't finished this yet but so far it's complete fire
Discussing the ethics of Smash's marketing feels like trying to convince kids that cheeseburgers are made of cows
TIL that I don't know how to make grilled cheese.
I think it's funny how the Tom Scott Batman video has probably contributed to the very cultural phenomena it commentates on. No doubt in my mind that kids are watching that video and spreading "Robin laid a gun" like the plague, probably in Jacksfilms' exact cadence.
wikipedia featured article today is very based.
We haven't forgotten about Bubsy. We were busy getting new key art made by @AdamBryceThomas 😻

Maybe this is me being British speaking, but a lot of 1P Smash discourse in relation to "iconic factor" feels like "game 10 people played vs. game 5 people played". I don't think the difference between Metroid and Chibi-Robo in popularity is all too significant.
oh wow this really is a smash site. source accuracy 100
House Improvement: A show about Tim Allen convincing Hugh Laurie to not be an acephobe.
smash fans will look at a game called "REPTILIAN VAMPIRE DINOSAUR DOGS FROM THE SUN" and say "yeah, i want the main protagonist Hugh Mon Withergun in smash"
Mr. Misali released this at a strangely convenient time
what even is a video game? version 2
no nuance. no "it depends". for as many of these examples as you feel like answering, ask yourself if you think if you think they are "video games" or not. this is a sequel / expansion to another poll I made recently, with more examples added from suggestions and replies people gave to the...
docs.google.com
Making a poll I may or may not post about side-over-protags, and facing an immense logical dilemma:
So, we can all agree that either Morrigan or Felicia is the mascot of Darkstalkers, right? They weren't intended as such, that was Dimitri, but they were the ones who resonated with the public. You could argue a similar situation about Sans, Undertale used Flowey for promo stuff back in the earliest days.
So... does that mean these guys are all retroactively... and INHERENTLY the main protags of their games?

is goku from dragon power elegible for smash
"simon cowell from shrek" is technically elegible for smash
I once remember a time when Pixar was renowned for rarely if ever making sequels.
So like... do Clippy detractors have third eyes? I get actual arguments against Bubsy and mooks, I have never recieved an argument against Clippy once semantics are overcome, just vague gesturing to some kind of common truth I'd surely be aware of.
It really sucks that every discussion of Clippy in Smash has to devolve into semantics absolutely nobody would be discussing if Clippy was from the DS Browser or something 1P like that.
"Lucario is a Mewtwo clone" and "Lucario has nothing to do with Mewtwo" are both equally as insane takes.
The Disney+ shuffle button only being for the Simpsons is funny because it implies that Pickle & Peanut has deep lore you'd miss out-of-order.
That could be true for all I know, I've never watched Pickle & Peanut.
why is the goemon stage with the dumb wall on the competitive stage select screen in smash remix.
"I don't joke about meme picks, I want them, if I don't want it, I don't bring it up."
I think people who complain about "undeserved" redemption arcs in media - at least those with a cartoonish light tone or little in the way of serious stakes - must have never actually forgiven someone in their life.
"Uhhh... are we good now?"
crickets chirping
"OK."
"I need £5."

"Pinkie Pie married and had a baby with Weird Al" is like the good-ending mirror version of "Q*Bert married and had a baby with Josh Gad".
jigglypuff dair would be terrifying with slime cancel.
just found out that "le epic bacon" was a corporate forced meme.
it's no afro circus, but it's certainly better than pickle rick.
"I don't like that Smash's roster appeals to fan demand and movesets stick to the source material"
"You don't get the point of Smash, it's to give people the pleasure of playing as the iconic characters they love, not educate them about gaming or make an intricate fighting game!"
"OK, if I am to see Smash eye-to-eye on its own intent, having mass-recognisable throwbacks that fans want, then I think it severely lac-"
"Why are you treating Smash so superficially?"
While I'm not the biggest fan of how Smash Remix handles its boss classification, I won't lie that "Slippy Toad is the ultra-secret all-powerful boss character" is probably the most on-point primordial-internet-rumor thing in the entire mod. -
