The idea of it is actually supposed to be the final boss room. The long staircase leading to the highest point of the castle is like, an iconic setup for the series.
It's actually the boss room at the end of Castlevania on the NES complete with the stairs...just suspended in midair, with the other wall knocked out, a couple extra platforms for spice....and it might also be mirrored from how it is in Castlevania, but I don't remember.
Yeah that makes sense. I hadn't played Mario Kart DS yet when Brawl came out so I was always under the impression the stage was based on SMK's MC2 and that was ingrained with me until I noticed it in... was it in Smash 4 or Ultimate that changed the name?
Star Fox Zero would've been on the Switch a long time ago if it wasn't so intrinsically created around the gamepad.
Really? Because if I had to pinpoint a specific location, I'd say it's actually supposed to be Medusa's boss room from CV1.
Especially after getting an Alola-based Fighter.
This but for Rhythm Heaven for me basically, would've loved to have seen if the Switch's massive install base could've brought in some numbers for it since it kinda needs them lol
Yeah, since I don't think the Ultra Wormholes led to like other locations until USUM (so something like the Ultra Megalopolis wouldn't have been possible), I think using the Altar of the Sunne/Altar of the Moone would have been a good use of it in the meantime, since you could go between them using an Ultra Wormhole in even the original Sun and Moon after becoming Champion.
I know what you mean. and we had some decent locations for potential stages
The room just before it has that same clock tower and crescent moon in the background viewable from the staircase, and there's even a dropdown onto the floor that leads to the room. The coffin is also there which I think means that the two rooms merged.
Technically both. It was known as "Mario Circuit (Brawl)" in Smash 4
I didn't realize how much I liked getting new stages until we only initially got four new ones.
Damn, just a few months off from getting it right.
Yeah for the most part, DLC was self-contained to the Challenger Packs.
Oh, that's a coffin in the middle? I thought it was just a pedestal.
This was a thing?
I don't see a reason to think a port will take precedence over new games. For Elma to have a chance, I think you need an XCX2.
Eh, barring the token "new Pokémon from an upcoming generation", the base roster focuses on what's current and popular at the time of proposal rather than what may or may not happen in the future.
I never said anything about the port in my post.
Totally fair point. I suppose my mindset was that Monolith was still using Elma in promotional materials and having her make guest appearances in other games such as XB2’s challenge pack. But you are right that he doesn’t really future-proof outside of Pokemon.
I say if somehow we don’t get Elma at least she should be an assist trophy. And yeah i seriously hope there is some Xenoblade X music this time. I need this at the very least https://youtu.be/xOeb7StJlRc?si=VF3VWR1hda6hCBCX
Well in that case Sakurai's evaluation of her future prospects are going to be even worse than they are in reality.
I think she def has popularity, but she's definitely not one of the top dogs in that department, either. XBCX has always been a very niche entry to the series, so I think without an extremely astonishing performance from this current port, her popularity is not likely to overcome that. As has been said, ports like these don't tend to change the equation very much for older characters, not to mention this one is going to be put out in the dying days of the Switch and is therefore not likely to have that surprise jump in sales or notoriety. And when you compare Elma to other older characters, it would just be a very odd and niche choice in light of the other options IMO.
This list is reminding me how stupidly the XCX soundtrack is named.
The game is actually 30GB in size, which is too big for a Wii U disc. Switch carts hold even less data.
That said, Monolith Soft is made of wizards or crazy people or both, because they're adding content to Definitive Edition, and somehow it only clocks in at 15GB according to Nintendo's website store page for it lmao
People at Nintendo in general are compressions wizards, not just Monolith Soft.
Well... they had 32gb carts, several years to advance compression technology, and Nintendo's proprietary tools.
The size of carts is deceptive. There's always a portion of its memory size taken by basic things that allow the cartridges to function as intended.
It's a higher ceiling.
It really isn't. I looked at my own laptop to be sure because the logic is the same and the 500 GB memory drive it comes with has a whole 25 GB taken out by default just to function properly.
You don't have to compress much if you're aiming for a 32gb cart in the way you would if it were a 16gb cart. It's a higher ceiling. It would be completely feasible to do given the advances since 2015.
I mean all you have to do is put her in Smash Bros and she'll have 5 times more popularity. And that's not even taking into account the characters who's Smash appearance practically became the reason for their popularity, like LttP Zelda, Wii Fit Trainer, Mr. Game & Watch and Ice Climbers.
Depends on how it's optimized, I guess? I don't really know the specific numbers for that stuff.
I put Tank Hangar/Warhead Storage in bold and italics, because why not give that a new remix too?
You could say that about a lot of candidates, though, unless they're someone hypercasuals already know like say Toad.
They don't make Switch carts in 20gb. It's 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32.
