@@MegaPokefan97 It wasn't a glitch, L-canceling came from Z-canceling in 64. Z-canceling cancels all landing lag. It was made that way so shielding from a jump would be easier. The landing lag cancel was just a side affect which they changed to half the animation frames in melee from 64.

I love how Super Smash Bros., a 2D fighting game series, has Z axis collision detection, even though it has absolutely no relevance at all.

[@DekFocs]

Actually, the error with Bowser’s DThrow isn’t connected to character weight at all! But it also is! It’s because, in Melee, Brawl and Smash 4, the duration of throw animations are based on character weight, and Bowser’s down throw against Jigglypuff and Mr. Game and Watch skips over the one frame that actually does the damage. How light they are doesn’t fuck up the damage calculation (I think. I’m 99% sure weight doesn’t affect damage.), but rather it speeds up the animation in a way that removes the damage hitbox.

[@TheMalikp1]

I will always remember Melee for the fun times. And as fun as these facts are, it shows the issue of rush developed games. I'm glad Sakurai learned from this and continue improve on his beloved series.

[@matthewmspace]

This game was developed in only 12-18 months, so I think we can forgive the Melee team for any mistakes. But neat facts nonetheless.

[@queuedjar4578]

Likely some coincidence in calling a random number from memory. Kind of like how the game randomly pulls a number from memory whenever it decides whether or not luigi's cyclone should be charged at the start of the match.

I still like Melee, but I gotta say, it's a miracle the game manage to do well when it came, it still managed to be fun to play (casually), and it functions well, too. It could've ended up being Smash Bros' "Sonic 06" and killed the formerly small franchise earlier due to the small develpment time, but it didn't. Sidenote: Even as a kid, I managed to spot some of the oddities before.

Strangely enough, some of Nintendo's rushed games are actually their best. The original Majora's Mask and Melee are just two examples. Their skill ceilings are way higher than their usual titles and I feel like that's because Nintendo had less time to obsess about dumbing things down for general audiences.

I don’t think being able to hurt yourself in the rest area is necessarily an oversight. It may have been changed in later games, but at the time they probably just figured it’s on the player if they choose to give themself a disadvantage for some reason.

5:14 Wrong. The trophy title reads "マグナムキラー", which is the Japanese name for the Banzai Bill. The trophy description begins with a description of the bullet bill enemy, true, but that description only serves to emphasize the differences from banzai bill enemy, which is described in the 2nd half of the trophy's text. Is there really nobody that knows Japanese on the DYKG team? Edit 5:28 "But the game origin wasn't fixed." The game origin in the Japanese version is correct, reading "スーパーマリオワールド(SFC)", the Japanese name for Super Mario World. The US release made it wrong.

Want to know who the very fastest tiny melee characters are without normal speed boosting items?

[@guitaristwilllane]

ahh so that's where the joke in terminal montage's subspace emissary came from

[@LilacMonarch]

which one?

[@hoohah5067]

I'm assuming the grab

[@MultiMadgeek]

I love melee :) good game that I made so many friends from :)

[@Veecy]

You're right, Marth's grab really was a mistake.

[@M644theawesome]

Tbh thought it would be more of gameplay mistakes like Marth's grab range and the such, but it is very interesting to see all these mistakes here

[@xOblivionAbyssx]

Terminalmontage: *makes video* DYKG: Yes.

[@AGZhark]

... what

[@PPablinho]

Terminalmontage is always a parallel universe ahead us

Them addressing the platforms on Hyrule Temple stage just relieved me from years of torment.

Hearing asumsaus be mentioned made me smile

[@randomuserlol1110]

Thankfully we do live in a time that stuff like this can get patched.

[@Sir_Robin_of_Camelot]

That's a double edged sword. For pure bugs like the Whispy bug sure, but Melee as we know it would not exist if Nintendo got their dirty hands on it after release. Same goes for a lot of fighting games that are over patched.

[@gatorssbm]

I think in the case of fighting games I think patches are for the better but for things handled by the Smash dev team looking at the European patches for 64 and Melee they were prob worse version of the games to play imo even to this day Ultimate has a lot of changes that makes me scratch my head that were either unecessary or just worse for the games meta (not to say there arent any good balance changes) but thats kinda subjective all in all

Extreme nitpicking is actually entertaining, who knew?
