I’m an idiot nerd but at 24:53 when you say he’s the best of fighting game characters, Min Min technically also comes from a fighting game so…

[@adriansrsa90]

9:40 ayo that's literally how battles work in P5 tho because upgraded gun, OP items, and special mechanics (abusing Iwai and Takemi upgrades) unlocked throughout the game make Joker, and arguably all the other party memebers too, extremely compentent without a persona but i still get what you mean in terms of smash's gameplay i didn't see past this point in the vid yet but if I were you the BIGGER criticism would be why the hell up special is GRAPPLING HOOK, a Royal exclusive that doesn't appear in any other Persona media, while NO OTHER FEATURES FROM ROYAL ARE TAKEN AGHHH, (I Believe and Violet in Mementos would have been AMAZING

[@adriansrsa90]

oh shoot i missed to say that the Arsene timer is a GREAT point, like something along the lines of Hero's Mana would make INFINTELY MORE SENSE and be much more loyal to the source material

[@adriansrsa90]

10:08 AYO CORRECT OPINION ALERT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@Someguyidk5988]

I’m not sure how many people know this, but the reason SNK got so many songs is because sakurai pitched all 50 to SNK to put in the game thinking he would only get 10 or so. But SNK just said “Ok sure, we’ll let you use all of them.”

[@bonedude1286]

SNK is a true chad. Sakurai: "Hey, man, I'm trying to pick a few songs for the DLC, can you help me decide?" SNK: "Well, what do you have?" Sakurai: "Well, of the 50 songs we chose, we want to include at least 10 of them." SNK: "Fuck it, put them all in."

[@b-dog4777]

So for people who don’t know, Lord woo Fak Fak was named after how one of the banjo devs, always said, “Woo!! F*?k!” After something happens. So that’s why a boss was named that

Still can’t believe they casually included over 50 SONGS on Terrys DLC pack along with a fun af character and one of the best stages in the game period, so glad I got it

[@Bluebatstar]

I'd never heard of Terry before Smash or his games or even the company but that Pack was definitely the best, it's nuts. IN my opinion anyway.

[@bootlegboi66]

I'd say Terry is a distinct play style, it's fun factor is dependent on the player

[@InsertFunnyThingHere]

I also love how they went for an unconventional pick, but not too weird to be an unjustifiable inclusion

[@edgemaster334]

And the amazing background characters!

[@magmarxiogaming6717]

I think that's cause they knew he was going to be the only snk character in game so they wanted as much representation for it as possible

[@otopugpug]

I think Byleth's gimmick of having multiple weapons was done more for the sake of representing all of the Three Houses main characters, since he wields Dimitri's spear, Claude's bow and Edelgard's Axe, so he acts as a stand in for all of them at once. It's like Super Skrull in MvC3, where he represents all of the Fantastic Four in a single character.

[@WhimsicottFanatic]

Y'know, it never occurred to me that Super Skrull was supposed to be a stand-in for the Fantastic Four, and now that I've been informed of that, that makes me love him even more And also the idea of Byleth being the Super Skrull of Smash gives me the itty-bittiest bit of appreciation towards them That said, their gimmick still bugs me overall simply because it doesn't even commit in full, like all of Byleth's tilts and throws use the sword instead of following the whole "Neutral is Failnaught, Side is Areadbhar, and Down is Aymr" schtick And while I'm of the conspiracy that the only reason all of the tilts are the sword is purely with consideration for the pre-Femleth reveal in the trailer because sticking exclusively to a total of 4 attacks [Up Special, Tilt, Smash, and Air] until Femleth invites herself in would've been a nightmare, so having STilt and DTilt offers a bit more leeway, I stand by that the throws had no excuse

[@elmaionesosexo]

Never thought id see that comparasion

[@SonicTheCutehog]

That and so he wouldn't be another basic Fire Emblem swordfighter. Sothis even makes the "too many swordsmen" joke in Byleth's reveal trailer before giving them the House Leaders' weapons.

[@squallleonhart9387]

Byleth is the least ambitious DLC fighter by a mile, they're just a walking advertisement for an expansion for a game. Their most unique asset is their smash attacks having extra range and disjoint which most characters have. Kazooie was a spear before byleth had a spear is the only logic you could use to justify byleth. Heck even Piranha Plant has more new tech than byleth in the form of the poison cloud, extendable bite and the vertical projectile spike ball. Byleth just hits harder, has extra disjoint and has Pit Nair, Corrin Fsmash and Joker Up B.

[@lucg4005]

Agreed. To this day I am still baffled on why they didn’t make him like Pokémon trainer. Switching between dimitri with his lance, edelguard with her axe, and Claude with his bow. They did the switching mechanic with pyra mythra, WHY NOT HERE?! Would have been the first lance, axe and bow fighters in the game (fighters that ONLY use those weapons), that would have been super cool to see how they’re designed.

[@Eo22I005]

Another thing about joker is that in his game awards reveal trailer,we hear the instrumental version of life will change which is a certified banger. BUT I DOESN’T APPEAR IN THE GAME Bro they could have at least given us the regular song (which would have been better) It fits so much better than our beginning.

[@Astrojandro]

[@zichithefox4781]

Sakurai wanted to make a fun fighting game because of games like Fatal Fury, so of course he's going to show love for the character and his series. SNK makes fun games and Sakurai reflected that with Terry's inclusion 100%.

[@potato1341]

I guess it was also due to SNK's cooperation that they managed to get all the value for Terry. 50 full songs, tons of remixes, them allowing them to just casually include nearly 2 dozen cameos as background characters. I love that they just allowed Smash to represent the best of what they offer.

[@General_C]

"Xenoblade 1's theme is iconic, but woulf you want to fight on this?" *YES.*

I wish they would add Prologue 2. It's a more upbeat song that uses the main melody.

I really hope we see more stages like Terrys. I usually play competitive stages but occasionally I play more casually with my dad, who prefers fully flat stages, and this is the only one that doesn't feel as cheesable like normal walkoffs. It makes me wish I could turn these walls on for every walkoff stage.

[@jazzminrice]

It’s a rare case to see someone who ranks banjo high, I just loved how simple they were gameplay wise But outside of that they really have so much charm in the animations, the stage, and the fact that they got grant to do the spiral mountain remix showed me how much love they poured into the pack

[@pseudohippie55]

I really wish they added an Assist Trophy for each newcomer. Not many people care about items, but I think theyd be a nice little addition for each fighter.

I can see Mumbo Jumbo and the Creeper for Banjo-Kazooie and Steve.

[@weirdguy1495]

So here are my guesses for each of those. Joker: Jack Frost. Hero: A Slime. Banjo-Kazooie: Mumbo Jumbo. Terry: Iori Yagami. Byleth: The Death Knight. Min-Min: ...Spring Man's already in. But I guess to keep things more interesting: Helix. Steve: A Creeper or the Ender Dragon, not sure which. Sephiroth: A Chocobo. Pyra/Mythra: Tora and Poppi. Kazuya: Heihachi.

[@AlexDayz]

@kirb vibin definitely agree. If it weren’t for Smash I would’ve never tried a bunch of the franchises it represents. It got me into fire emblem making it one of my favorite franchises. I finally tried Zelda after ignoring it for so long. It allowed me to know who Kirby was before playing it for the first time. Etc.

[@Marabo77]

It’s just that compared to DQ, FE had 5 characters before hand, it just got everyone tired of the newest FE protagonist being added when a new game came out within the Smash 4-U time window. Chrom didn’t get much push back when he was revealed cause he wasn’t being used to promote a new game

[@galegopaulista4564]

I'm not a FE fan, but I know there are many other characters that they wanted over Byleth and Corrin (Corrin especially is really hated by the FE fanbase). So their inclusions in Smash don't feel like they were intended to make FE fans happy, and feel more like soulless advertisements. That really sours their inclusions in Smash.

[@empressfrozentoes5285]

@@galegopaulista4564 byleth already being a soulless blob hurt their inclusion as well, though it's good they have a bit more life in smash but they still feel so stiff

yeah the fact that they for absolutely no reason at all refused to port 2 extra mp3 files (god shattering star and a funeral of flowers) pisses me off to no end. it's first party, there's no reason they couldn't have added those. hell, byleth was announced on the same day as cindered shadows, we could've gotten a yuri alt in the place of that weird sothis one where her legs look jaundiced and gross, and a cindered shadows track like the shackled wolves since that was the only one that existed at the time

[@rouge939]

People complain that he’s too basic and mid tier but would they rather he be Pyra and Kazuya top tier because then they’d complain too

[@edgemaster334]

And even if people call his moveset “basic” he’s the one dlc character that it should be allowed as he’s a classic n64 platformer character like the moveset fits him Also what I don’t think is talked about enough are his animations bc if u rlly pay attention to his animations u would see how great and unique they are compared to other characters, hes just like a cartoon character with some of them

[@juanrodriguez9971]

The Smash fandom really likes to over exaggerate, like, almost all of them were considered for competitive ban, like, wtf? I don't know if was because of the Bayonetta trauma but they sure exaggerated a lot.

[@MexicanSheepMan]

Glad there's still some people out there that liked Banjo and Kazooie in Smash, I often see them getting a lot of flack for being simple (and for being zoners, which I can sort of get), but honestly that's the reason I main them, their simplicity is what makes them so appealing, and it's not even like their games are super complex or anything to warrant a million weird gimmick moves like Joker or Hero did, and the fanservice is on point, they're so well animated and goofy, it really feels like they made the series justice.

[@dogecoin9562]

As a lifelong Banjo Kazooie fan, their implementation is nearly perfect and I wouldn't have it any other way (the reason i say nearly is that rat a tap rap really should've been fair but that's being really nitpicky)

[@alijahaskew4644]

I do think Banjo & Kazooie could at least get the multiple eggs from Tooie and maybe switch Wonderwing for their Down B for the Turbo Talon Trot as their Side B. Other than that, Banjo-Kazooie are damn near perfect.

I agree with the fact that they implemented BAK incredibly well, I just find their moveset to be uninteresting.

@@Marshall.R The excuse was likely given so there wasn't a laser target put on C418 or Microsoft From what I've heard, Microsoft's been wanting the full rights to C418's Minecraft compositions, which he was not down for, and this has lead to Microsoft basically ghosting him, and it's also why for the past major Minecraft updates from 1.14 onwards, all new songs have been done by other people who did fork over song rights to Microsoft A kind of inverse of this is also why Hero's music selection was Like That, in that the main composer of the Dragon Quest games keeps a firm grip on his songs, which has been a problem for even SquEnix, so the best Hero could get in Smash was the overworld and battle themes of the games each Hero skin represents Just think, if Hero had been _only_ the Luminary, Yggdrasil's Altar could've had only 2 songs like pre-Sephiroth Midgar

Joker made a small impact for me. He gave me a bit of an interest in the series. Nothing major since I only played three games and they were all long after he was released. But when P5 Strikers got announced and it was on Switch, I prioritized that, and I had a lot of fun playing through it. Then a few years later (meaning now), I bought Persona 4 Golden on the PS Vita on eBay back in March. It's safe to say that it became one of my favorite games of all time. When I have the time, I'm doing a 2nd run where I attempt to max out all S. Links in one run. And for good measure I recently bought P4 Arena Ultimax on Switch and even though the lack of rollback on this port is a bummer, it doesn't change the fact that the game is really fun to play, and I consider myself to be average at fighting games. TL; DR, without Joker's inclusion, I would never have touched a Persona game in my life. And I thank Smash Bros for that reason.

Just gotta say that FE3H turned into one of my favorite games ever and I was craving for Byleth in Smash, but I thought it was impossible since there was already too much FE. I was that one of two or three guys who lost it with Byleth.

[@doctorbielen]

Yo same! I remember hoping that Byleth would be added to the second DLC fighter pack and thinking of a cool moveset for.

[@squallleonhart9387]

Imagine not already being into Fire Emblem since Marth and Roy in Melee, lol Zoomers.

[@massgunner4152]

I wish they did more to prevent Byleth from becoming the new corrin (minus the FE fans because they actually liked 3H and started a bloody flamewar that damaged the comunity for months over it), because they were released just feels like they didn't want to try. The DLC somehow was released at the ending of the fighters pack despite being worked on it before the both games were finished, rather than dropping the reveal they set up an annoying "mistery box" scheme, the trailer is a hazaphardly modded cutscene of the game with spoilers for the game and an unself aware mockery of their character issues, the presentation didn't have anything to talk about so you get Sakurai making programmer jokes, and the character itself is this Frankestein of attacks where they quickly switch weapons for each attack like a stressed Minecraft player in a pvp server. Jeez i could make a video of everything that went wrong that day.

[@squallleonhart9387]

@@massgunner4152 I remember around the time Ultimate Released, Sakurai tweeted that the DLC Lineup has already been decided which was still technically 2018 even if the year was practically over, so basically they were hell bent on forcing Byleth into Ultimate even if 3H flopped, It didn’t help that they had to give Sakurai an early build of 3H for him to play through, I kinda feel bad for Sakurai because so many other games were already available that people wanted fighters from, during the Byleth presentation I didn’t like how Sakurai took a jab at Zelda Fans saying “I played an early build of BOTW and thought hmmm we couldn’t make BOTW Zelda a fighter” meanwhile he made Fox, Captain Falcon, Ice Climbers, R.O.B, Wii Fit Trainer, and Duck Hunt to name a few work just fine, this is why people say he hates Zelda, I mean it hasn’t gotten a true newcomer since Melee. Don’t even get me started on Sonic and how Sakurai treats him.

[@doctorbielen]

Was there a "mystery box" scheme? Outside of "smash will be discussed on X day," there really wasn't anything else that I recall (and if we want to talk about disappointing mystery heroes, how about the really long set up of "who is the arms character going to be" only to know it was Min Min within the first 2 seconds). The trailer being a modded in game cutscene was kind of cool IMO (could have been done better, ngl). And the self aware joke is apparently different depending on the language (in Japanese, it was "not main enough to fight" then showing off FByleth). The move set is a bit frankenstein-esque, but I honestly still dig it since its uses the axe, bow, and spear, which is also not too different from other characters who use multiple weapons (Steve, Belmonts kind of, Pits with side B). Regarding talking about the game, its kind of hard when its a relatively newer game (Joker and Aegis both didn't talk too much about their games due to being relatively newer games, ARMS doesn't have a story so who cares, and all other fighters were from older games/series) Not to say it wasn't rough, definitely could have been better. A bit more work on the trailer would have been nice with like you said bit less first-half spoilers. Being the last DLC fighter also didn't help, which if it wasn't for it loosely tying with the end of the Ashen Wolf DLC for 3H, Byleth maybe could have been added earlier and move someone like Terry towards the end instead, or maybe even switching them out for an earlier DLC2 character.

[@maratby4364]

I'm personally very fond of the DLC spirits, since a lot of them introduce new exclusive effects for spirits. Such as the King Slime and Hero's Comrades on the Hero DLC board, which introduce Enhanced Weight up and Team power up which isn't available on any other spirit. It's a shame that most of them are unviable, but Max Brass' Critical Super Giant and the Sephiroth legend spirit (bahumat zero? i forgot the name)'s Final Smash up are really nice additions to the spirits gameplay. Some are completely irrelevant, like the ender dragon and Sora's legend spirit, but The Mighty Jinjonator completely replaces Medusa in spirits viability. I'm at least glad we got exclusive effects for some of the DLC spirits, so they do have reason to exist. I'm all over spirits and it made me happy to check the new DLC board and give the new spirit a whirl every time a new pack came out.

[@angelmendez-rivera351]

Yeah, exactly. I know that he said in the video he himself doesn't like the concept of spirits, but it's still very dismissive for him to actively pretend that no one cares about them. I think PJiggles still doesn't realize that, to most players, this is a party game, not a fighting game.

I think the main thing that makes Terry’s challenger pack great is that you can tell that Sakurai is a big fan of SNK. From stuff such as the stage cameos, the 50 songs and the background of the spirit board being Terry’s stage from Fatal Fury 2, Sakurai wanted to put all love for SNK in one massive package which he successfully delivered. With some packs you could tell that Sakurai didn’t seem as enthusiastic when talking about them (*cough* Byleth *cough*) but with Terry’s Sakurai was bursting with excitement which I loved to see.

Add to that ridiculous horizontal range courtesy of Ahreadbar, an amazing nair and up air, literally the strongest spike in all of Smash, and a really satisfying down smash and a ridiculously over-the-top down special, and you have an amazing, fun, unique, well-designed character that doesn’t feel shoehorned onto the character at all.

And for someone who claims that the gameplay is the most important part, he does an excellent job at almost completely ignoring the gameplay aspect the characters and not properly taking it into account in his ratings. It's very bizarre. There are several other problems with his analysis: he says he has no issue with Byleth being 8th Fire Emblem representative, while completely ignoring the very glaring problem that the main gripe people have is that 4 of those 8 fighters are just clones of each other for actually no reason whatsoever.

@@JacobPDeIiNoNi Sure, Byleth is technically unique, but that's a very low bar when you consider how many clones are in this game. You need more than uniqueness to make a good character. Mish-mashing a moveset together in a way that is incoherent isn't the way to go about things.

[@JacobPDeIiNoNi]

@@angelmendez-rivera351 That’s true, I don’t think uniqueness on its own counts for much. I just think it’s byleth IS mostly unique at the very least, and denying that is flat out incorrect

Banjo was second in the fighters ballot? Now that I think about it, I think I saw him in a list some time ago… Was this ranking officially confirmed by Nintendo in some way?

Seeing the hate Corrin gets always hurts since I personally loved Fire Emblem Fates

[@nyx3659]

I'll never understand why Corrin and Fates are so hated Corrin in smash is a really unique character moveset wise. He's not a zoner, he has nothing annoying, I don't get it Fates is just a great game bruh. Sure die hard fans may be complaining about the story and characters being more cliche compared to the pre Awakening entries. But as it stands it's still a great game and has the best gameplay in the entire series I just don't get it

[@BadAtGamesss]

​@@nyx3659 Yes! That'sexactly how I feel. Like, hands down, Robin is the most Unique FE character in Smash, but Corrin is DEFINITELY up there. On the topic of Fates itself, yeah, some of the characters and story beats have their issues, but so does every game. I think people are just mad that 1.) its another FE rep and 2.) They really only put corrin in smash 4 to promote fates, even though they did the same thing with Roy in Melee, and byleth to promote the new 3 houses DLC

[@orangeslash1667]

@@BadAtGamesss the Reason for fate's sloppy story, is because the writers where trying to achieve too much with not enough time. Intelligents Systems had an idea for Fate to have three stories to appeal to everyone, but they realized that they didn't have enough writers. So they hired an outside writer, Shin Kibayashi was that writer. Intelligent Systems wanted Shin to write the outline for each pathway, what happened instead is that Shin wrote 500 pages for each pathway. Nintendo knew this was too long so they cut the story into pieces without the writers permission and the fact the Nintendo demanded Fates come on the Fire Emblem Anniversary only made things worse. Which resulted in this hilariously mess of a story. The good news this that there is a manga based on Fates that is a little better. Its called Fire Emblem If: the Crown of Niberlung.

[@BadAtGamesss]

@@orangeslash1667 Yep. That's the saddest part honestly. The fact that Fates didn't have to be so... nonsensical...

[@orangeslash1667]

@@BadAtGamesss As for Corrin, he's meant to be smaller and weirder than the other Fire Emblem Manaketes so that Corrin can transfer well into Smash bros. I personally think that a Fire Emblem Manakete🐲🐲 would be too big or too Complex to be playable, as proven by Tiki being an Assist Trophy. Intelligent Systems confirmed that Corrin's Dragon form is based on a Kirin, which is a Chinese dragon.

For Hero's song selection, it makes sense, the licenses to DQ music are very complicated, not even the friggin games get to have the orquestal versions of the songs most of the time(I personally prefer MIDI format anyway). As for his final Smash, I don't know if you skipped it since it has to do more with the legacy of Dragon Quest (featuring all previous heroes that aren't alts) which is something you aren't familiar with. For me Hero is an 11/11 outright, not only is he my main, he also is super fun to use, I am very attached to every one of the heroes in DQ (aside from X) and everything that was put into smash was a dream come true! My all-time favorite DLC and a very close favorite character in the whole roster.

[@angelmendez-rivera351]

I personally think the DQ song selection is pretty good.

[@lolmaster1229]

I understand why you don't like songs without remixes in Smash Ultimate but songs like Last Surprise, One Winged Angel, and maybe a Kingdom Hearts song ere better off with no remixes since they're already so good how can you make them better?

[@JacobPDeIiNoNi]

Precisely. If you want to see what happens when you attempt to remix an already amazing song, just look at the tragedy of the counterattack remix. If it ain’t broke, don’t try to fix it.

I've had near 20 of my favorite characters ever added to smash and I am incredibly grateful for that, what's funnier tho is that Terry is the character I didn't know I needed, He is my main, have become a fan of KOF ever since and am now more in love with him/his stuff than ever before. Im genuinely so happy, and personally cannot wait for part 2 of these videos, I think some of your ratings are unfair (imo), but I understand that these are your reasonings are reasonable/acceptable. *About Terry* : To be completely honest, even if I didn't end up caring about Terry in any way somehow, I think its still a 10/10, first character to have a back special, Charge motion, a well balanced come-back mechanic, 50 FREAKIN SONGS, 17 remixes, they are nearly all amazing, his alts reference his other Titles and even the anime. Stage is a first in smash and so well done, Amazing final Smash, like honestly there is nothing bad about this pack, imo, its actually perfect I 100% agree

[@peeton4031]

Terry is my favorite Smash DLC character of all time. I’m a HUGE fighting game guy. I’ve played so many and KOF is one of my favorites. Terry feels great to play in smash and his stage is the best! I will say though, the smash remix of Stormy Sax 2 is the worst version of that song. It sucks how they completely butchered that song.

[@roboticminer8843]

As someone who got into fire emblem because of Corrin, I feel the need to defend them and Fates. Ok, mostly Fates. Yeah Corrin being added to promote a game that hadn’t even come out yet is very dumb and stupid and I can’t argue with that. However, I wouldn’t call Fates a bad game. Yeah the story is kind of a mess, but it’s a fun kind of mess. The characters are fun, the gameplay is great, and it was a fun experience overall. By no means is it an amazing game, but I wouldn’t call it bad either. I’d say it’s a good game overall. -Also I love playing as Byleth and Corrin sue me-

Byleth's moveset featuring a mix of sword, spear, axe and bow attacks is probably my favorite in the game. Yes, their "reasoning" for making the moveset the way they did was way over explained, but the end result is still to me a fun and methodical moveset. A thing a lot of us used to say is that this exact same moveset could have been put on another character (maybe a monster hunter) and people would have praised it, but because it's on Byleth it's "just another copy paste FE moveset trying to differentiate itself" (seriously, if you did not lurk Reddit back then, you have no idea how many people tried to argue that Byleth was a clone). Garreg Mach is still a garbage stage and nowhere near enough music was included though.

[@angelmendez-rivera351]

I agree with you that Byleth is not a clone, but the way they went about trying to make the character unique was pretty stupid. The gameplay turned out to be fun, but it is a very poor attempt at trying to represent the Fire Emblem franchise, especially when the fans from the very same franchise have been requesting for other characters which are _way more interesting and unique_ for years before Smash Ultimate even existed. And it seems pretty obvious they did not put anywhere near as much effort into Byleth's Fighter Pass as they did to all the others. People complained so much about Min Min, but the truth is, regardless of how much you might hate the game ARMS, they ended up putting way more effort and dedication into Min Min than they did to Byleth. And that is arguably just insulting.
