[@GmNdWtchr96]

SEGA seemingly really don't want Sonic to be any color aside from blue or to an extent black. Yellow being exclusive to his Super form

[@fwg056]

I had an idea where Sonic’s alts took the approach with the NiGHTS alt and used Sonic’s body to represent a character while his cuffs represented each Chaos Emerald(beside the dark blue one since that would just be his default appearance).

[@alicon852]

7:04 fun fact, Steve's hitbox DOES ACTUALLY CHANGE when he's using the enderman alt. The arms and legs have thinner hitboxes than normal. This is the only example of this happening in the entire game.

[@watersofdynami]

Another fun fact, Cloud's "Advent Children" alt costume's final smash has slightly different knockback to bystanders than default Cloud's! :o)8

They really missed out on having an alt with Old Snake from MGS4

[@nutball3756]

Snake has a lot of potential for alts. He could have MGS2 Raidenwith the name change like Olimar and Bowser Jr, Iroqouis Pliskin (not Snake, but still), Old Snake, and of course, Big Boss (either MGS3 or MGSV) Going a Wario route and alternating between Solid Snake and Naked Snake (MGS2 and MGS3 appearances respectively) for recolors so they could have unique camos would probably be the most likely way they do it, though.

[@mrvaporiz]

I think Sonic could have an alt with the rings on his hand, and his final smash could be Darkspine Sonic. As well as a Black Knight skin with Sonic having a gauntlet whose final smash is Excalibur Sonic.

Great costumes! You're scratching that itch of missed opportunities I have when it comes to smash alts!! I'm a Bowser main, and something that always feels criminal everytime that I boot up smash bros is that there aren't any interesting alts for his character besides recolors. I really wanted to see something like Dry Bowser or Dark Bowser from Bowser's Inside Story, or even his wedding outfit from Odyssey!

[@AncroAnnaki]

I love that you actually drew art of the characters instead of using the Ultimate renders, a very nice touch. Would definitely love to see a sequel to this video. 😍

[@TLAO777]

these are cool, but personally, I've always had a dire need for Sonic to get a Metal Sonic costume.

[@swanemployeeoftheyearflyer7583]

[@tumultoustortellini]

[@noyz-anything]

a metal sonic recolor would end up looking like sonic.exe, which i for one fully support

[@ViktorErikFade]

Oooo, if they didn't do classic sonic due to size difference I could see that fitting real well

[@KirbyIsANerd]

I'm really in love with the portrayal of Sonic as a streamer with the exact same chat dynamic as Jerma. Also these were really fun! I've always had problems with how the Smash alts have been done for ages so it's really cool to see a series that's really gonna dive into it. Even more cool to see it's from a more "realistic" NIntendo-ish perspective so it's gonna be a lot different compared to the take in stuff like Project M. I do wanna mention that Kirby DOES have an alt that references a character who is playable in game- That being his Meta Knight alt, but that's arguably a special case since Meta Knight himself doesn't have a maskless alt in-game, or really any reference to it whatsoever. Also Bowser should have an alt for Dark Bowser from Mario and Luigi I don't know why he has a Blueser alt and not one for Dark Bowser- OH HEY THAT'S ME IN THE CREDITS!

[@LuigiFan04]

Blue Bowser is a reference to Bowser's Brother. No joke, an actual character in the series, look it up.

[@KirbyIsANerd]

@@LuigiFan04 Yeah !! Bowser's brother is officially referred to as Blueser, so that's who I was referencing specifically It is really interesting that there's actually unused Blueser sprites in All-Stars, I wonder what made them decide to drop the guy when redoing the Lost Levels

[@zacharystewart4394]

I’ve been saying this forever. Smash’s last true missing piece is having different actual costumes vice just color pallet swaps.

[@KinaliBZP]

The lovely unique art for the characters was unexpected and really takes this over the top beyond many other takes on this I’ve seen, super excited to see what other ideas you’ve got to show!

[@lued123]

"A skin cannot reference another series." If you ever get to them, I would suggest making a (partial?) exception to this for the Xenoblade characters. They already have what are probably Xenogears and Xenosaga references in Ultimate, they're just kinda subtle because Nintendo doesn't own those IPs. Blade is a spiritual successor to Saga, which is itself a spiritual successor to Gears, so they're sometimes considered part of a larger meta-series. I think that's fair game as long as the Gears and Saga references maintain plausible deniability.

[@MT_Rift]

I love the philosophy behind your decisions because it shines light on the subject in a way many haven’t considered until now. I think Pac-Man and Lucario should definitely come next due to their underwhelming skin selection. I’m also personally not a fan of Palutena’s costumes so that would be cool to see down the line too.

[@smg680]

This is probably one of the best Smash Bros videos i've ever seen. From the idea of fixing smash costumes to actually creating art for the characters colours and costumes, it was such a joy to watch as well as seeing the origins and reasoning for the colours like the different locations in Majora's Mask was unique and clever. I really hope this becomes a series as I would love to see you tackle a lot more characters

[@Liggliluff]

You've the only one so far who has explained how Classic Sonic would work as an alt. Other people just seem to assume changing size is something they would do, even though Sakurai has explicitly stated that this isn't allowed and why they had to make Lucina a separate character

[@MrRedGreenBlue1]

My philosophy with alt characters is if Iggy can work for Bowser Jr then anyone can (in theory) be anyone else's alt, no matter how many discs nintendo needs to remove/add...

[@cosmiclikesminecraft]

Isn’t Lucian the same size as Marth?

[@MrRedGreenBlue1]

@@cosmiclikesminecraft You mean the blonde guy from Fire Emblem Blazing Sword? I mean... I'd believe it, but I honestly don't know. Edit: That's Lucius, I'll bet you ment Lucina lol. In that case, yeah probably!

[@ArmaBiologica35]

For Samus I think her alts are fine but they should have gone the extra mile and have each color alt actually resemble the design of the suits she wears in those respective games and replace the green and black and yellow alts with a suit based on Metroid Prime's phazon suit and Metroid Prime 3 Corruption's PED suit respectively.

[@pennysantana247]

Tbh, the Green Samus is a reference to the previous Smash games, as a sort of tradition in the games. Though with the new suit she gets in Dread, replacing it with the Metroid Suit is probably the best way to go for that one

[@GoliathSmoke]

I would absolutely dig the idea of having R.O.B’s costumes resemble every major nintendo costume. not only would it be distinct but great variety.

[@TurbopropPuppy]

I would've swapped Amy and the Werehog, to be honest. Amy is a separate hedgehog character like Shadow and Silver while Werehog is just a transformation form, and Werehog has chunkier proportions anyway which would fit the Classic Sonic alt as you described it just as well as it would Classic Amy

[@emilstoqanov3270]

@LlEUCU. BEAU× Sonic doesn't have big yellow rings on his arms unlike Amy tho

[@LairScavenger]

I appreciate where your thoughts on proportions are going, but I think we skipped a step where *Classic* Sonic is a *Werehog.* It sounds funny, but I could only imagine the neverending confusion from fans.

[@kirbyofthestarsfan]

The choice to use Amy on Classic was probably to use the palette of Classic Amy instead of the pink/red from Modern That said, I'd replace the Werehog one for An Espio palette to keep some synergy of purple on his alts, since he's a speed-type character paralleling Sonic in Heroes

[@cooki1875]

same, as well as replace the yellow and red alts as they feel too random and out of place, which, to be fair, smash does have a lot of, but that doesn't really excuse it as the problem's still there, just on someone else I would easily go for stuff like mighty or espio, but that's against the standard biza had set so idk

[@cooki1875]

@LlEUCU. BEAU× bruh, amy wears golden rings and boots with a different pattern than sonic's shoes, their modern designs look nothing alike so it would be easy to make the alt look distinct even tho there isn't even a need for it as they're just alts, not costumes

[@hambughrr8186]

Have you ever thought about remaking Chrom's alts? They're all aggressively mid and dull, to the point where 3 of them (default, purple and black) are almost indistinguishable from each other

[@castform7]

I swear, I feel like all his alts change him in some way but I find it so hard to pick any of them. Whenever I pick Chrom, I scroll through his colours, realise they all feel like they're just there and go default.

this episode makes me want to get into smash modding, and just add these alts in myself. This is something that I've genuinely wanted from the game for the longest time, and I think these are the perfect reference points for making something like it!!

[@CHEESEPUFF_7]

I liked this a lot. I personally think Cloud and Sephiroth deserve Kingdom Hearts inspired colour schemes or costumes because they looked great in the first Kingdom Hearts

[@edwardgamerx9061]

They don't deserve KH inspired colors, but the actual outfits. I mean is not like the Kingdom Hearts franchise isn't in Smash Bros, hell if you hey dropped them when Sora came out and only brought 3 Mii costumes so two more of these could've been Cloud and Sephiroth Kingdom Hearts costumes. Even if they charged more than a Mii price.

Young Link's blue outfit is actually based on Breath Of The Wild Link, noted by the beige-coloured legs to represent BOTW Link's pants. It's the only alt that makes his legs a different colour than his skin. It's actually my favourite Young Link colour to use.

[@ttxx99]

[@123silverslash]

I love these new costumes, though I feel that not including non-hedgehogs for Sonic’s colors missed the opportunity to have a Blaze inspired palette, which makes much more sense since she’s a literal parallel to Sonic, and her colors are meant to be complementary to his already.

[@Duskool]

Oh, wow, I'd love to see a series of this, especially if you're gonna make cute art for the alts~ The biggest letdown for me in the costumes department was Pac-Man, but there's a bunch of legal garbage that's going with him right now that simple things like Professor or Jr. being referenced would be impossible being realistic. The second best disappointment would be Olimar's alts, which could've covered all bases if all the alts were costume model swaps. Louie, President, Alph, Brittany and Charlie could've been model swapped and bam everyone's there, at least all the playable ones. Also, Shoutouts to Isabelle not getting a Digby model swap or even a color swap, geez

[@DittoMaster6]

I see this take with Olimar's alts a lot, and I honestly really don't like it. Smash already has such a big problem at characterizing Olimar as an inept, scatterbrained, emotionless coward rather than the curious, thoughtful, compassionate everyman that he actually is in the games. The fact it drags Alph down with him already adds insult to injury, I don't want the entire cast of the series to suffer the same fate. They don't even give him and Alph separate render poses, whereas they do so for the majority of alternate costumes for different versions of the same character, like Robin, Corrin, and Byleth's female alts. People point to the Koopalings a lot as a counterargument, but the Koopalings are at least 2 dimensional enough to where Bowser Jr's already accurate characterization doesn't feel as jarring on them, but Olimar and Alph don't even have the luxury of having separate voices, let alone in-character animations. It also somehow makes Alph's alts even worse, because his green and pink alts have tints on his spacesuit that Charlie and Britany don't have, so the selection of colors ends up looking less distinct than before. I get this is just me, and seemingly everyone else in the fanbase wants this to happen, but it gives the same energy as people who want characters like Dark Pit or Daisy to be alts for their original characters. Why would you want these distinct and memorable personalities to be completely erased by having them act like the exact opposite of their canonical selves? Is it really worth the reference to bastardize an entire franchise worth of characters?

[@Duskool]

@@DittoMaster6 I would appreciate the fanservice cuz i'll take what i can get, because that's just a problem with Smash in general, how it either simplifies the character to a specific portion of the franchise like Wario, or gets things wrong altogether like you said with Olimar. It's still so dumb that it happens to previous characters and to new ones as well, there's no consistency in this freaking series that's supposed to be about celebrating the characters and their games....

so unexpected yet so full of creative ideas! i really loved this one, ty! glad to be supporting you. here's to your channel rising in popularity!

[@SpritelyBard]

These are so wonderful~!! Especially the Sonic ones, they're so much fun~ Tho, I think pink keaton Link should've been purple as a Kafei reference

[@jangelorum]

AMAZING, this would definitely be a good series. I'm rooting to see Zelda cause the only recolor that's good on her is the one based on Twilight Princess Zelda, I swear. Ringing the heck out of that Bell 👁️👄👁️👌

[@jadethenidoran]

Please make a part 2!! This is really good

[@castform7]

I never played Majora but I was always confused to why none of the game was referenced anywhere in Yink's reintroduction. Having costumes based off masks I feel would be a nice middle ground and you showed that off nicely. As a big fan of Sonic though, this is what I've wanted for the character (well, one of the things). I love the costumes you made for him and think it would be a good step to make him feel like a well respected third party in this game.

[@Left4Cake]

I personally think Mario could have a luigi skin to spefically refrence Luigi orgins as just the player 2 but that's like the only acceptable exception to the "not being another charater" rule But yeah onyl Luigi should have the waluigi pallet.

[@MrLobster-sc5lx]

With characters like Luigi and Pac-Man, in their respective games, they have so much variety in style and look. Its a shame they didn't use like Mr L or Classic Pac-Man

[@OverflowingWithIdeas]

8:50 you missed an opportunity for a “Ness is Sans” joke. But otherwise, great vid!

[@Gravel_TheCart]

SANS

[@PeepDaPip]

That was the joke, a subversion of expectations

[@benrich622]

With this being one of my favorite channels, and the fact that Smash is one of my favorite franchises of all time, I would absolutely LOVE to see more of this series. SUPER well done, in my opinion.

[@TaterrBugg]

This is everything!!! I’ve always wanted the mario princesses to have a costumes!! Hopefully you can get to them!

[@jazzyfuture]

9:09 Actually I'm pretty sure Mario having the Waluigi alt is a reference to TTYD when you wear both the W Emblem Badge and L Emblem Badge, which is why the M is yellow on Mario's alt but the L isn't on Luigi's... for some reason. Mario also had a Wario alt in Brawl with a lighter blue M on his cap than Wario, which is the W Emblem badge. Dunno why they made the M Green in the Smash 4 version of the alt, but whatever.

[@jazzyfuture]

Also the White Young Link alt is actually a reference to the Blue Ring in Zelda 1 which turns your tunic (and everything that shares Link's palette like Zelda's dress, the Wooden Sword, the Merchant's clothes etc) white, not blue like the name implies or later Zelda games would do, which is why it goes back as far as Smash 64.

[@anitabath8315]

This was really cool! I think a cool next up for this, if it does become a series, would be Ganondorf. As much as I think his alts are good, I think maybe replacing some of the uglier ones with different costumes would be great. Maybe a demise one. (:

[@BigGnome]

Gut feeling is that that one awful attempt at a Yarn Yoshi costume is going to be in here

[@Dass727]

You mean the shitty crafted yoshi in ultimate cause its not yarn

[@jmurray1110]

They should have never cut black yoshi Also Pac-Man’s entire wardrobe needs reworked

[@Dass727]

I’m gonna be mad if she changes Lucas’ Bony alt

[@RadicalKongsyom]

Sonic’s 7th alt I believe is an unintended reference to sonic 1 for the game gear.

[@cooldudemcswagcooldudemcsw4697]

The Goombas got Back reference instilled an emotion I can’t quite define, but it wasn’t a positive feeling lol

[@ironmuro]

23:16 Awww I love the orange socks on the Amy alt, I don't think it looks gross at all!

[@antoniomendoza8305]

Based on the rules, does that mean Jigglypuff's alternate based off Kirby's sleeping ability will be changed?

[@Wyrmington]

PJiggles: (disintegrates)

[@antoniomendoza8305]

@@Wyrmington That's so true lol.

[@goodhelmetjunior3399]

1:05 As Poppt1 once said “YOU CAN’T BEAT BLUE KIRBY!”

[@leik7728]

8:34 Bayonetta references devil may cry and pit and dark pit both have a dark and light color scheme for each other

[@planetless_moon]

I swear every video you make is always so high quality! I love the homages you included in your designs!!! These always make me laugh and it’s be cool to see more of this series! I’ll look forward to whatever you happen to pursue and pose next

[@zabdyztar6521]

9:03 Little did she know, Fox's purple Wolf alt still exists

[@AsterlaynaR0se]

And the meta knight Kirby-

[@hatefuleyebrows]

[@hatefuleyebrows]

I GUESS I SHOULDVE SAID I ***DONT SEE*** WHAT YOU DID THERE

[@jademonass2954]

this made me realize my main and secondary main both have nothing but costumes, kekw

[@thespacebetweenrealms5934]

I really love the Majora theme you chose for Young Link's alts! They fit super well and are really well designed! I would love to see more of this
