Smash Bros. Ultimate Update: F-Zero Remix, Peach's Castle, Falcon, ROB, Custom Moves Gone?! - Week 7

[@cosmelia652]

I’m just surprised no one talks about the stage builder. ;/ I hope it returns, but it’s like a mesh of Brawl’s and Smash 4’s where you can make your own platforms, but add elements to them to make them unique.

[@cCO2324]

Master Rosie stage builder please

[@thatoneguywhomainsthechara91]

So much yes, stage builder FTW

[@amirgarcia547]

Master Rosie I just hope it’s better than Sm4sh’s stage builder, which succed.

[@timothybemer2351]

indeed and I hope that the mii fighter costumes are there because I want to play smash bros ultimate as a ninja or samurai

[@chuckcheese7747]

Master Rosie I’ve been thinking about that since March but I never said anything about it lmao, let’s hope it returns

[@maxshapiro078]

Shrek The Ogre Hey, I’d love to have Trump in Smash so I could Falcon Punch the shit out of him

[@maxshapiro078]

Oldschoolgamer Yeah....worth it 😆

[@salj.5459]

Oldschoolgamer It’s okay, he’s Ben Shapiro’s son

[@johna8670]

Maxwell Shapiro I'm going to make a Trump Mii fighter and whoop everyone's butt just like 2016 B-)

[@maxshapiro078]

Sal J. Yeah...don’t associate me with that guy

[@cofagrigusfan24]

i just realized, Captain Falcon has a gun he never uses, not even in a taunt

getting casual name drops in a gamexplain discussion? Honored good sirs 8:40

[@Purple_Sloth]

Why is it whenever someone who has at least 100k subs always get comments that say nothing more than “hi!” Or “I love your vids” instead of relating to the actual comment @-@

[@silverblade0011]

Would you rather Game Theory to do a two part story on why this is the most important stage to smash history?

[@Fizzshock897]

It’s been a while since I’ve watched GameXplain, and I gotta say that intro brings me back! :)

[@gumbo64]

ikr the intro and the footage and the music changes on new topics make the discussions such good quality

[@regularrandomperson7108]

The F-Zero medley is one arrangement I personally enjoy. It reminds me of those wacky Japanese action shows I notice from afar. And that vibe I get just meshes well with the overtop futuristic designs the F-Zero cast has. Bonus points for also including an arrangement of Fire Field.

[@jacobs.9661]

Just wanna say, the F-Zero medley is hands down my fav f-zero music track in the series.

[@SanjiTyloxion]

The composer is also the singer for the Fzero Medley. And they're also the composer for Daytona so it makes sense.

[@ProjectFreelancer64]

How the hell are you guys going to drop references to Burning Rangers but miss the obvious fact that the F Zero medley is a sendup to Mitsuyoshi's work in Daytona USA, lyrics and all. He even yells F-ZEROOOOO the same way he yells DAYTONAAA

[@spindash64]

I will be sad if there is no reference to the, “GAME OVER YEEEEEAAAAAAAAH”

[@TechnoSyndro]

It's almost like they only really know about Nintendo games

[@akaimizu1]

spindash64 actually. That was from Sega Rally. Daytona's was even funnier. "G A M E O U E R, G A M E O U E R, Gameoba Gameoba Gameoba Gameoba". Yep. They pronounced the V as "Ooo".

[@akaimizu1]

I actually mentioned the Daytona thing to them before they put this video together. I guess they just didn't feel like it. A part of Sega history they weren't as familiar with.

[@calb_honkman]

Can we just talk about the fact that the Mii Brawler has a counter that throws the opponent?

[@Kirbyfan87827]

Welp, time to make a Geese Howard Mii. *PREDICTABO!*

[@voidfields5065]

The legend of the God tier mii gunner ugjupppy whos just a denial crieg mii it ugly cloths

[@shieldlesscap6124]

That or Mii Fighter grab has super armor which is a scary thought

[@Bulldozer4000]

The F-Zero remix is a match made in heaven, have you guys never heard the glory of "ROLLING STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART" or "DAYTONAAAAAAAAAAAAA LET'S GO AWAY"?

[@akaimizu1]

Bulldozer I even want to Flyyyyy Sky Hiiiiiigh... Let’s Gooooooo Togethaaaaa!

[@PsymonM]

I get that the Miis aren't the most popular of characters, but the way Andre's always dismissing the fighters he doesn't care about and even asserting "nobody would care if they were cut" is not very pleasant, even if it's just hyperbole.

[@lilmrb1276]

I agree. I mean, what gives? It hurt me a little inside when he said that because I care about the Miis.

[@villageemerald8899]

I spent way too much time into the miis, they were one of my favorite parts of smash 4. I have like 50 of them I'll never get to use in the new game

[@tacosalvapor9264]

Not to be an ass, but you wouldn't last a day in the real world with that personality, lmao.

[@PsymonM]

HEHEHEY NOW, I AM ALLSTAR Maybe not wherever you live, but I'm doing just fine expecting people to be considerate over here!

[@tacosalvapor9264]

Simon Lucky son of a bitch. lol

[@DragonRagovi]

Honestly, the changes to the Mii Fighters don’t bother me as I don’t care much for them. I’m just glad they look like actual fighters instead of defenseless children roped into a battle for their lives.

[@theredblooper]

Not gonna lie, the lyrics in the F-Zero medley sounds hype as hell for me! It gives me heavy tokusatsu vibes and I think that goes well with F-Zero and its interesting character designs, especially Captain Falcon.

[@absentheart2521]

David Baron I love it!

[@bioniclebros]

Y’all comparing the FZero remix to Burning Ranger instead of Daytona USA which is the more obvious inspiration and feel it’s going for, especially with the “F ZEROOOOO” at the beginning.

[@yoshi1981]

The person who composed the F-Zero Song is the same guy who composed the Daytona USA music. it's in English and its meant to sound like that on purpose. the vocals are meant to sound like Daytona

[@maxbyer]

Custom moves from Smash 4 seem like the easiest way to crank out movesets for Echo characters

[@villageemerald8899]

Good point

[@jaydongYT]

Imagine how smash fans who look like Hitler would feel if Nintendo banned Hitler mii fighters

[@Goldblume]

132 days left, boys and girls!! 🔥 In other words: 19 weeks or 4,4 months.. Waiting for the release of Smash is still horrible, but it‘s going to be bearable. I‘m happy to have the video stuff from GameXplain incidentally.

[@Herozonex200]

Goldblume I just need 7 weeks to get a switch.

[@vessel9018]

THE WAIT IS KILLING ME

[@mightygraham]

But it's going to be more horrific when it comes out

[@creapyalbinofish]

for more common folk 3168 hours or 190080 minutes or if you really don't get it 1.14e+7 seconds or 1.14e+10 milliseconds or if you don't understand that 1.14e+13 microseconds or 1.14e+16 nanoseconds

[@shadowclonemaster]

Goldblume you're still counting?

[@jrcsmash2150]

Finally the Miis get the respect and recognition they deserve. I always thought it was stupid that they weren't allowed online.

[@maibignutt6434]

glad mii fighters are back. that way, goku and superman would be playable...

[@davidnewbon4385]

senpai sama they never left

[@maibignutt6434]

David Newbon what i mean is that before e3 i was worried that they wouldn't return. glad they did though

[@davidnewbon4385]

senpai sama ok they are iconic character so they had to be. And i love how they have been upgraded (graphics)

[@mx4159]

Oh, how ignorant you are, thinking that Goku’s only chance for Smash Ultimate is a mii fighter

[@mx4159]

Young Urkle oh the irony...

[@fivedfiva]

Counter for Mii Brawler looks badass, not gonna lie.

[@bobertcheeseboy3111]

I actually loved the Mii Fighters in Smash 4 (especially the Brawler) and I’m thrilled that they’re back. I hope that them being in Smash Ultimate means we’ll get an actual Mii Maker rather than the crappy little hidden menu. And now that K. Rool has been announced, my most wanted (realistic) newcomer is a new Mii type, other than Banjo Kazzoie of course.

[@ModelAAA90]

Why is everyone treating the Mii Fighters like they were the most hated characters in Smash? People like us loved playing AND making them. It was so cool being able to bring essentially anyone to Smash through Miis or hey, make your OWN fighter or OCs in Smash! It’s really unfair, I’m GREATLY excited for the Mii Fighters & all the new stuff that’ll come with ‘em.....

[@Adrian-ty7pc]

MegaMan Model AAA well bayonetta has the most haters actually

[@maxshapiro078]

I’ve got to say that I haven’t found this blog nearly as exciting as the websites for Brawl and Smash 4. Because unlike with those, every single update aside from music that we’ve gotten has been about stuff we’ve already seen.

[@turnip4557]

Maxwell Shapiro With all the stuff they've already shown at E3, it'd be kinda hard to do that. They can't reveal any veterans and I doubt they'd casually reveal newcomers in a blog post.

[@maxshapiro078]

Turnip But there are probably still plenty of new stages, items, and Assist Trophies we haven’t seen yet.

[@venomknight7031]

who wants smash ultimate to have a story mode

[@Alnix2]

Me

[@amirgarcia547]

Lava Flow ME

[@chuckcheese7747]

Lava Flow who doesn’t lmao

[@Herozonex200]

[@garyluckson3482]

Jalalious yes exactly ,I doubt its happening

[@NightFlyStudio]

Oh my balls, Magicant is gorgeous! Please...Please Nintendo remake the Mother games!

[@MegAmi24]

AbsentHeart how about this instead *eats fire flower and burns you*

[@benshapirohamburgerhelper1239]

No. Lets start small. Give us mother 3.

[@rayminishi689]

Ljink itoi is done with the Mother series. Sorry not sorry

[@NightFlyStudio]

+RayMinishi I know Itoi is done...but it's not Itoi's IP anymore. Nintendo could do anything they want with the IP, they just seem to respect Itoi's wishes at this time. He says he finds no desire to continue or make a sequel, that doesn't rule out remakes. Besides, there are plenty of developers who leave companies and their baby, the series they've put the most work into is still continuing on without them. Metal Gear, Sonic (although that one is a bit tricky), Kirby, etc. I don't even think I'd want a Mother 4, but simply a remake with updated graphics, music, and presentation wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for Nintendo. Do I think it'll happen, probably not, but a man can dream.

[@karabirb]

Not gonna lie, Magicant is one of the most visually unappealing stage imo. I love pink as much as the next guy, but OOF that's way too much. Not to mention the song kinda makes me sick tbh. Maybe it'd be different if I were a fan of Mother but yea, that's definitely a stage I'm gonna be avoiding

[@JosepiThe13th]

I honestly miss Customs and wish they could return. Not knowing what specials my opponent had always made things exciting for me. It left me shaking in my boots wondering if my opponent playing DK had his OP Storm Punch or a different neutral B. Other people just don’t understand how much potential customs had. Instead, they were just mad because everyone used DK and Sheik with occasional Villager, Mii Brawler (who is busted AF), and Wii Fit Trainer. Not like today’s meta is any better since everyone uses Bayo and Cloud with occasional Fox, ZSS, and Marth. I also love the Mii Fighters, and I’m glad they’ve returned. They’re far too underrated.

[@LOLManArchives]

I love F-Zero Remix they did for this game, so I gonna have to respectfully disagree with you guys. And by respectfully, I mean slam you guys on it. *WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T LIKE THE LYRICS* The lyrics add to it I feel. Sure, they're goofy and what have you, but that's what makes it great to me! The fact that they got the same guy who worked on the Daytona soundtrack and Burning Rangers soundtrack...It's just...!

[@dnmstarsi]

Not everyone is a fan of Takenobu Mitsuyoshi. Or all of his vocals especially the Engrish. It's cool that he was included and all but do not "slam" folks for disliking this remix, fan or not.

[@LOLManArchives]

Ah, the slamming part was a joke. I do actually respect people's opinions! But yeah, I've heard a few people voice complaints over the vocals he did for other stuff he worked on. Of course I like it, but I can see why others might not.

[@dnmstarsi]

LOLMan Understood.

[@Granetdud]

Yeah they said it "doesn't feel like F-Zero" and I was just like, "WHAT!? HOW!?" F-Zero is all about taking things to the extreme! The characters are ridiculous, the speeds are insane, the world is crazy and colorful, how does it NOT invoke F-Zero!? So glad to find someone who disagrees with them in the comments. haha.

[@yoshedev5290]

Isn't it the theme song from the TV show?

[@TheKennethRyanShow]

This is very random but I hated when you would pick random from the character list in Smash 4 and how random selection would never pick the Mii's.

[@urineidiot6115]

I just really hope something interesting happens when you try to do snakes codec and palutenas guidance at the same time.

[@absentheart2521]

Chad the smelly hobo They will probably only work on their corresponding maps I’m guessing so you can’t do both at the same time

[@gengavari9460]

Chad the smelly hobo Eh id rather have a new Codec / Guidance type thing Preferrably Fire Emblem Supports Like maybe Lucina prays to Naga or something im not sure

[@Carobou_]

Maybe something with the inkling since they're new characters? With the squid sisters?

[@Rubberman202]

I'm kind of disappointed that custom moves might not be returning, but honestly, the way they were implemented in the last game were weak to begin with, not to mention if there's ONE character where custom moves actually makes sense, it's the customization Miis, so I'm glad to hear they still have SOME level of that, and that it's exclusive to them. Also, I would have complained if Mii Fighters were cut. They get an unfairly bad rep, in my opinion.

[@ChaosNew]

I love that the Miis this time will be viable characters and usable, what made them kind of outfitting in Wii U and 3DS was that literally they where too customizable, hight, weight, affecting speed, power, jumps and knockback, also the moves people wouldn't strictly use the sets, they would mix them up as they pleased and also add the extra buffs, now it's just pic a Mii, pick a set and go! It's like now we really have 9 new characters to try out. 😍

[@almondjoy4938]

ChaosNew Being customizable is a problem now? I don't really care for this "move set" nonsense, since it sounds more restricted now.

[@thefuzzypickle8277]

Almond Joy yes because all that didnt allow them to be used online

[@ChaosNew]

Almond Joy It's not a problem, but people who take the competitive aspect of the game couldn't enjoy them, and besides you couldn't use them online if it wasn't with friends only, so would you prefer again for them to not be playable or be able to use them, personally finally I can play with them If I choose to.

[@almondjoy4938]

ChaosNew What? That is not an option in the first place; Ultimate's main gimmick is bringing everybody back.The Miis was never in any danger of being cut. I don't give a fuck about the competitive goons( most of 'em hate the Miis anyway).All I care about is that customization still remains robust and that I can still alter their stats to my liking. The competitive scene means nothing to me.

[@ChaosNew]

Almond Joy Okay. Then play with your friends on the Wii U version. Where you can use all that then :) I'll be enjoy them in any kind of match on December 7.

[@UJEKakapo]

I actually liked Mii Fighters. I love that they are making them more balanced with preset movesets I hope the Mii Fighters would each get their own selection spot so you can select your different custom costumes via the way you select regular character costumes.

[@Kunimitsu877]

im glad mii fighters are back they were some of my favs in smash 4 hope their even better than before

[@Rubyfire41]

Kunimitsu877 Saaaame! I'm also hoping we get some more fighter types too! I just love the idea of more fighter types joining the fight!

[@mxm_prime2191]

Kunimitsu877 "Even better than before" though they are the worst characters in smash 4... Lmao

[@koatam]

Same here. Satan, Hitler, Dickface and Goku were my favorite Smash characters.

[@Kunimitsu877]

i dont really believe in tier lists also parts of the reason i just cant get into the competitive scene is there is way too many rules and restrictions such as certain stages and no items so i enjoyed using the miis alot which they can be useful if you master them(which goes for any character)

[@2000fiona]

Rubyfire41 One idea people had since Smash 4 was the "Mii Mage". I think that would be awesome, I love characters that use magic!

[@Caleb5Stars]

Only 19 weeks

[@PeacockLover127]

[@zack_9846]

[@chasepriest6059]

God am I happy the Mii fighters are back! even with 12 voice options! But I'm hoping and praying to god they don't remove the custom moves! It did say with 3 custom specials for them, but it'd be awesome to have every fighter have custom specials like how they did in smash 4!

[@reginlief1]

I think there was a missed opportunity with the mii fighters to pull a Wii Fit Trainer and actually make a character that references core games that utilised the miis. They could have had moves based on music, spotpass, and of course, sports. Only real difference is that you’d be picking how the character looks. I dunno, I feel like the miis are an important part of Nintendo’s history. They practically the face and identity of Nintendo for a generation or two. Mii fighters now just don’t really represent that.

[@iaopa3587]

i'm surely happy the Mii's are back, there is nothing better than customising your own character. I'm still sad that Mii's aren't in Tennis Aces though...

[@luism6290]

I always loved the Mii gunner. I am very happy that the Miis will be able to fight online. Just wait to show my spongebob Mii to everyone..

[@lastsonoftennessee9895]

I didn't care that much about Mii Fighters but seeing them again, I actually am really looking forward to playing them. I just hope you don't have to fight them as often as you had to in the first player mode in the last game.

[@TheMack625]

Nicely done, good sirs. I am happy that Miis are back. I played as them somewhat rarely in Smash 4. My favorite is the Brawler variation. Princess Peach's Castle looks so gorgeous. Similar to Kongo Falls, it was a stage that showed off the graphical power of the GCN back in the day, and looks _much_ better on the Switch. R.O.B. is one of my favorite fighters. He got a decent buff in power between Brawl and Smash 4, and it's nice to see further improvements to the robotic operating buddy. Captain Falcon is definitely a classic fighter at this point. F-Zero has never really appealed to me, but I love how Falcon is the perfect mix of speed and power. The zoom effects for his signature Falcon Punch makes him even cooler. While I play Smash Bros. primarily against the CPU, I have many fond memories playing with my older brother and sister and some friends. As Ash said, Smash truly is special when gathering the right group of people. It's really a grand celebration of Nintendo history in one goofy, cartoonish fighting game package.

[@KuroShiiiiro]

Omfg you have no idea how hype I've been. This is EASILY the most I've anticipated a game in my life.

[@MarioKartGamerDude]

I predict we’re getting something involving Smash Bros Ultimate in August!

[@Herozonex200]

MarioKartGamerDude I think it's either gamescom or EVO

[@Tsugumi_hi]

Story Mode BABY

[@brandonwilliams6119]

MarioKartGamerDude Theres a Geolyte leak going around that indicates we might get someone from the DS game Meteos. After all it is Sakurai’s creation.

[@shadowclonemaster]

Oldschoolgamer fuck no

[@ireallylikenintendo6366]

Brandon Williams meteos is a tetris like puzzle game that’s like asking for the tetris block itself to be in smash

[@Ceejay-gl9ld]

Wow. No appreciation for the F Zero Medly. It’s one of the best remixes in the game.

[@InfiniteGamesDenderotto]

Honestly, If a new F-Zero happens I would love the full soundtrack to be composed by Takenobu Mitsuyoshi

[@mystery8064]

Am I the only one who liked the custom moves. Edit: am I also the only one who cares about the Mii fighters.

[@EnvyDSin]

It was a meh experience, to unlock them all, but, no, you're not alone, when it came to play with custom specials.

[@WarioJim]

The F-Zero Medley has more Daytona vibes than anything. Also, Fire Field has ABSOLUTELY been remixed before, since there's a Brawl version and it's great!

[@OjK-tg7ub]

I hope we can customize the style of our mii to look like from our Mii maker

[@YoungWill163rd]

Has anyone noticed captain falcons new side smash attack?

[@Solibrae]

His jab animations look different too.

[@brandonwilliams6119]

I absolutely love it!

[@marche800]

Will_Nyc The backhand.

[@smartstuf1026]

why didn't they use wii music to play in the backround for the mii fighters

[@AshXXMayftw]

It's a lose-lose with Smash music, because I've seen several fans complain that the new Snake Eater rendition didn't have lyrics, and now some are complaining that the F-Zero remix has them. It's like, choose one or the other.

[@_elynas]

Thing is, the F-Zero music didn’t need to have lyrics, they sound horrible and ruin the song.

[@daisukedoi9284]

:] Not really, they make the song sound more complete. And it's not like there's other songs not all songs have to suit your very picky tastes

[@sgtwolf7391]

AshXXMayftw Well no it's not people being picky some songs sound good with lyrics some sound bad. "Choose one or the other" So every song has to have lyrics or no song is allowed lyrics? I don't think you are as smart as you think you are.

[@capngeeoff]

Well Snake Eater originally had lyrics and the FZero songs originally did not, so I think what people are complaining about is the change

[@brandonwilliams6119]

I’m just waiting to see if we will get tons more Final Fantasy music instead of just 2 songs. I hope Sakurai and Nobuo Uematsu can work together to decide which songs will be great for Smash.

[@jake0324demo]

The Mii fighters look so much better in ultimate than in wii u/3ds.

[@PeacockLover127]

I hope miis get online I really liked playing as them in offline mode in sm4sh

[@chuckcheese7747]

josh bellino hopefully

[@maxshapiro078]

The F-Zero song sounds like an anime intro...I love it.

[@sabdierz]

If Mii brawler was cut I would've been extremely upset

[@Pureheartt13]

"I think they're the only character they could have cut, and NO ONE would have complained." Hah... If only, Andre...

[@kyurei4478]

Custom moves were an interesting concept in itself but I think it was unecessary and more confusing than useful in a game like Smash. It was also difficult to collect each bonus and the fact that you can't use them online gave me the impression that I create fake and useless characters. Mii fighters are one of this things which you don't care but you know it needs to be in the game.

[@alexacosta4754]

Love watching these makes december not feel as long 💪

[@AlonsoRodriguez-yp6xi]

I love waking up to these videos, its like forget about breakfast I have enough GameXplain to keep me full 🤗

[@Bluedino152]

I did like the mii fighter dlc costumes so I could pretend they were actual other characters, and I did like the gunner's moveset, so I've been okay enough with them coming back. Though I do wonder so far if they'll just have the single default faces they have, or if you still can use your actual miis.

[@timothybemer2351]

indeed because I want to play smash bros ultimate as a ninja or samurai plus I hope that the stage builder for brawl comes back especially a story mode like subspace emissary from brawl

[@kirblicated5462]

That F-ZERO medley sounds like an anime opening

[@micahgarnett1924]

Kirblicated When Captain Falcon gets his new anime

[@ice_ice_gaming8673]

19:50 in the ROB trailer when he looks at the bomb, is that a reference to sub space emissary? Maybe hinting Subspace emissary 2?

[@alphajnitro0072]

3:25 This point makes no sense cuz you can already see people's miis online

[@wendigovanderblitz4823]

ROB is, by far, the best "blast from the past" character.

[@adammac.1342]

Could you add timestamps in the description for every new topic please?

[@Chinoshroom]

The custom move thing reminds me of how in Mortal Kombat X each character has the same basic moves but you could choose between 3 types of it

[@sherawat306]

Chinoshroom true dat

[@Nosretep]

I think they should use the default Miis size and weights for online battle.

[@OniiChanPls]

I love my mii fighters. I just wanna see Cloud and Link able to fight and lose to Hank Hill.

[@o.h.x-9064]

AznHoboOVER9000 Pro-pain.

[@OniiChanPls]

ironically that's the name of my mii brawler for hank hill lol

[@thedrunkapple838]

I love these videos it makes me look forward to the end of the week since I want to know everything about the game so having this recap helps

[@tracedayoshi196]

The custom moves better be back for the miis, having presets sounds boring and ridiculous.

[@santiagomanzur1698]

Trace da yoshi they are, the english translation of the blog just messed up for some reason

[@azurlune1877]

Trace da yoshi Be grateful you have them at all you brat. Actually be grateful you have the mii fighters at all their customs prevented them from tournament and online play and no one used them much in casual settings. So it's either presets or having them fade into obscurity

[@villageemerald8899]

Did you just call somebody online who you've probably never seen before a "brat?" ok

[@Eienias]

that's dev time they could spend on anything else glad to know ppl continue to assume to know how smash dev works in any form. gosh that is my biggest pet peeve

[@SoujiaSoldierKitty]

Eienias20 You said it.

[@carlocajigas3009]

mine too. People assume that Including an element prevents another fron being included

[@Yengozi]

Same

[@gengavari9460]

Eienias20 Obviously it takes up loads of time!!! because Sakurai makes smash all by himself without any help Duh

[@epm1012]

Eienias20 I would normally agree, but the statement here is so vague that it’s objectively correct.

[@akcalbumreviews3719]

I don't know why people hate the miis they have there on games and there part Nintendo like every other fighter in smash ultimate and they are a part of smash history

[@nuggets2597]

July 28 today.... December 7.... As a true smash Bros fan I must say... THATS TOO LONG I WANT IT NOW

[@jasonramirez1064]

Same

[@chuckcheese7747]

nugget s yee

[@nuggets2597]

anaiahlator m32 no I don't care I need it

[@AIM0001]

All episodes have been great but the blog needs some new announcements for we can give these guys something new to discuss. Even a New Donk City stage reveal would go along way.

[@chetbreister4770]

it’s already been revealed but idk if you mean an in-depth look at it

[@Herozonex200]

I'm going to make Deku from my hero academia as a miifighter!!

[@turnip4557]

MetalSonicGamerX200 that's a good idea actually. Time to make a Deku Mii

[@Herozonex200]

Turnip this is why. Anybody who watches the anime should know this part lol. 6:36

[@asherleviwoods6051]

And with the switch miis you can color their hair pretty much anything

[@2mccue4u27]

Oooohhh good idea.

[@WilfredCthulu]

Bonus points if you can make it look like he's crying!

[@brandonwilliams6119]

People who say: “How would this character play out?” Just look at Captain Falcon he just drives in his games But honestly I would love an F-Zero beat’em up game where you have to catch Criminals, he is a Bounty Hunter after all. He was also going to be the face of Nintendo at one point instead of Mario.

[@Rot8erConeX]

Captain Falcon isn't actually the best example. He got in because his *body shape* - before Smash was Smash, it was intended to be an entirely-new IP. And the moveset they eventually gave Captain Falcon was the one they programmed to test the game's mechanics, belonging to the new IP's titular character, the Dragon King. Captain Falcon just had the same body shape as the Dragon King, so when the game became an all-star crossover, he was given the origin moveset. Fox, from what I understand, is a better example of your point. He was never on foot prior to his inclusion in Smash 64, so that moveset is entirely new for him.

[@brandonwilliams6119]

Mathoo Rot8er_ConeX Isn’t it true that Starfox 64 had an on foot mode in the Vs mode?

[@mei-liwong51]

+Mathoo Rot8er_ConeX Dragon King? What Dragon King?

[@megalcro]

Mei-Li Wong Dragon King was what Super Smash Bros started out as. Generic-looking macho characters, with the launching mechanic we know and love. Sakurai's decision to make it a Nintendo crossover game was the greatest of brainwaves.

[@mei-liwong51]

I still don't know what that Dragon King thing was. What did he look like?

[@bhavanikempegowda3225]

Even though my birthday is over my parents said this can be my birthday gift

[@Twocoolman115]

This could be a Christmas gift. It comes out weeks before.

[@bhavanikempegowda3225]

Twocoolman115 well they said my Christmas gift could be different

[@shrektheogre4349]

Literally nobody cares

[@chuckcheese7747]

Twocoolman115 I’m getting it day one thank god, this game will sell like wildfire when it comes out

[@Chillwave6]

Mom said they probably WILL give this to me as a Christmas present. Now that's a wholesome present from own parents.

[@indigobrazy]

Ah yes. Another wonderful Saturday morning with my bois and some cereal. Hit me with it Andre 🙏🙏🙏 (commenting before watching lmao)

[@NinAmuro57]

Duel Peaks would be my pick for a BotW stage. I mean, look at the possibilities of having two mountains to fight on with a gap in the middle. Or maybe the top of the Hebra Mountains or Death Mountain.

[@villageemerald8899]

That sounds like it's been done before. What about gerudo valley?

[@NinAmuro57]

Village Emerald Hmm, didn't think of that. Great idea!

[@Jahranimo_]

No love for the F-ZERO medley No love for MITSUYOSHI No love for DAYTONA USA Disappointed! Lol

Right? If a new F-Zero happens I would love the full soundtrack to be composed by Takenobu Mitsuyoshi

[@symphonicsonic]

Custom moves aren’t gone the mii fighter entry says, “You can choose from the three types of Mii Fighter and select from a set of three specials for EACH type. “

[@thewapikmin280]

Alex Laubenstein for the Mii's not the other characters

[@carlocajigas3009]

What i dont understand is why they say you can select from 3 specials when characters in Smash have 4 specials

[@mythosinfinite6736]

+Carlo Cajigas Because GameXplain doesn't understand that the feature is exactly the same. You choose from one of 3 possible Specials, for all 4 Specials.

[@ademsahin6396]

I was thinking since you can use the amiibo from smash 4, which can be assigned custom moves, then custom moves could be returning. On the other hand, amiibo used in smash ultimate may have to clear their moveset data as characters such as link have had their specials changed.

[@Eevee860]

There were a few custom moves I liked, like bowser's fireball neutral b

[@alvarez7779]

glad to see there's an entire stage dedicated to my boi rob

[@bruhmanguy42]

I really like what they’re doing with the mii fighters, they’ll definitely be in for glory now and maybe even tournament legal

[@kylecouture1917]

They said they want mii fighters to be allowed in online play and tourneys. So thats why they took away some of the customization.

[@DeeJamari]

Do the Mii fighters um hold 1 character slot, or separate?

[@hylianro]

I just need smash run and subspace emissary

[@senateboi6039]

THE MIIS ARE GETING A VOICE I AM SO EXCITED!!!

[@dallinwalker2203]

2:45 why does Samus shrink

[@sombrego2260]

It wasn't even a question that custom moves could be back. It was more than obvious that it was scrapped entirely. Otheriwse it would have been announced during the big direct. They clearly said that Palutena and the Miis had a fix movesets, that's more than clear that custom moves are gone and it's not a bad thing it was so terribly handled.

[@Mephitinae]

Japan doesn't give a single flip about Hitler, Sakurai probably anticipated that players would make those annoying upside-down face miis, given the choice. Everyone hates those.

[@zonzyotea8815]

They said something about bullying people with miis which I don't understand because they're available against friends but not fighting random people online

[@Graphomite]

I feel like the bullying aspect was just Nintendo's excuse to leave Miis out of online play without admitting that they were just imbalanced gimmicks. On the other hand, I also think Nintendo has stopped caring about censorship as much. If we were still in the Wii U era, I'd doubt Nintendo would ever lax on their censorship, but I think taking a step back from being control freaks is something they now know they have to do if they want to successfully associate the Switch with modern networking and online video gaming. If they want to give players creative freedom online, there will be bulling, crude language, and dick drawings. As the saying goes, you can stop come of the dicks some of the time, but ya can't stop all of the dicks all of the time.

[@manuelalbertoromero9528]

Sounds very...dickish.

[@OrangeKyle91]

I kind of expected custom moves not to return in later installments when Mewtwo came out without them. I know I'm in the minority, but I actually really liked some of the custom specials. Most of them were garbage, I have no trouble admitting that, and I certainly understand why they're not coming back. But there were a few good ones. Charizard's Dragon Rush was a fantastic multi-hit without the self-damaging effect of Flare Blitz. Ike's Aether Drive gave him the ability to recover diagonally, something he normally doesn't have. Close Combat was also very nice for building up damage on an opponent. Ganondorf's Dark Fists had a lot more KO power than the Dark Dive, in addition to super armor and better horizontal reach. Marth/Lucina's Dashing Assault gave them better horizontal recovery, and Crescent Slash gave them diagonal recovery. I also love Mii Fighters just because of the ridiculous characters you can make with them. I'm so glad that they're more humanlike in size now. I hope all the outfits will return as well, including the DLC ones! My dream matchup is Ridley vs. the Black Knight...Samus's worst enemy against Ike's worst enemy. The level of badass in that match would be off the charts.

[@hewhoentertains4859]

Coincidentally, Captain Falcon and ROB were my mains in Brawl and Sm4sh and will be in Ultimate too.

[@thedrunkapple838]

[@countertopconfessions9975]

... Was that a misunderstanding of how coincidentally is spelled or a reference to HIMYM?

Still hoping for Spring Man to be in smash, he'd fit so perfectly.

[@o.h.x-9064]

Doubt it, ARMS is too brand new, so don't expect Sakurai to add Spring Man in Smash.

[@Eudaimonia7564]

O.H. X-90 he could be DLC.

[@o.h.x-9064]

ThinkingOfYou75 No DLC in this new Smash game, we have too many characters already. Sakurai clearly said that we should not expect too many new fighters, he means it.

[@Eudaimonia7564]

O.H. X-90 all the new characters could just be DLC.

[@o.h.x-9064]

ThinkingOfYou75 What part of "don't expect too many new fighters" do you not understand? If you think Sakurai would add more than 10 new fighters as DLC in this game, you are sadly mistaken, mindless kid. Sakurai decides whether to add new characters or not, you don't.

[@BoshiYoshi]

I don't know why everyone hates Mii fighters so much. Is it because they're not actual game characters like the rest of the roster? I never used them much personally because I mostly played online in modes where you can't use them, but I always thought they had really cool movesets and it was a neat gimmick being able to make your own version of fighters and random characters from literally anything. But in most reactions to the reveal trailer that I've seen, everyone groans and whines when the Mii characters are shown off, especially the pro players. I know their custom options made them not legal for tournament play, but it sounds like it'll be different this time. Also, what is the stage from the ROB trailer with the giant ROB in the background? I don't remember that from any of the previous Smash games and I haven't heard anyone mention it which is weird if it's a brand new stage.

[@ZeroJanitor]

your conversation about your memories of playing smash with friends makes me wish i had friends

[@gregoireseaman3746]

Also the guy who narrates that Metroid song from brawl was the same voice actor for Wolf in brawl .

[@jaxonpeterson6417]

What is that intro music?

[@OsamuWuVT]

"mildly annoyed when they could've been working on any other character" ....said every one that were upset about the echo fighters Andre. At least if they add the different types of mii classes from miitopia at least there not clones, cause i'm sorry i'd like to fight as a cleric or even an Imp class that'd be fun and kinda different at least.

[@villageemerald8899]

I feel like a magic mii would fit really well into smash, I find that the elf and the scientist are two more outlandish choices but could be really cool
