[@oblivionwyvern3933]

So Ricky is definitely making a movie about where he's been and what he was doing in his life and it's probably going to come out in 2020.

[@thewhatness]

Shout-out to Big Shofu for keeping the discussion grounded. Otherwise it will just devolve into wishlisting and what-ifs.

[@gabperma]

thewhatness happens too much in gamexplains discussions, mostly when roger guest stars in them 👀

[@dark-skinnedchefcurry7994]

And when I'm grilling outside, that's ricky propane

[@TheKotaCan]

It always made me happy to see Ricky... He always lightened the mood and made halarious jokes, he's my spirit animal. Ricky is love, Ricky is life.

[@christianfernandez7163]

Halo AE where is he I can't hear him

[@TheKotaCan]

Christian Fernandez we all hear him... In our hearts....

[@ciarzyx]

Lola Bunny conversation has to happen once every week

[@ShootEmUpStar]

Shofu's that realist who destroys all sense of hope, wonder and dreams but at the same time you know hes right.

[@presidentc4]

Shootemupstar49 lol, I love how upset he gets.

[@radiantburrito]

Lol that's why we love him

[@julianmanjarres1998]

Shootemupstar49 yeah but he comes off as aittle douchey sometimes

[@illusionofartYT]

Not all the time but yeah

[@linkonar7823]

Or he's someone who has a different opinion. mindblown

[@keero666pkmn]

"I WANT THE FACTS" Thank you Shofu jeez. All these wild baseless ass speculation and expectations only make people disappointed in the actual product

[@xenodo597]

So with Bowser Jr. riding the Clown Car in every game he's in these days, when can I see him riding the clown car, which will be on top of another cart, in the next Mario Kart? Car on cart action baby.

[@_elynas]

r.i.p bowser jr’s legs

[@reekhigh5789]

That’s hawt

[@BuNnyDuDeDaRoO]

@_@ jr. clown car appearances before smash 4 wii u New Super mario bros wii 2009 Mario party 9. 2012 New super mario wii u 2012 Paper mario sticker star 2012 Mario & luigi dream team 2013

[@rusty8311]

Xenodo Clown Car will probably just become a cart for everyone

[@presidentc4]

Jesus lassast no one said it didn't so you didn't need to go out of your way to list those games... There's also more games than that.

[@stealthskater66]

Smash bros at 17:26

[@KasperWalking]

thank you i was listening to mario tennis for way too long

[@BuNnyDuDeDaRoO]

Ey man tennis is a good game fuck off yo

[@laststep56]

"Don't give up on your dreams! Anyone can get in!" Damn, waluigi isn't even a person anymore then...

[@Katsuraage]

I wanna see a palutena's guidance where if you have snake, a star fox rep, and maybe inkling (maybe calli marie or pearl marina) in the same fight all the wires get crossed between conversations and it gets super confusing with all of the friend characters commentating

[@ash_sunday]

Viridescent Inferno chrom, otacon, peppy, and palutena all in one convo

[@gtzice]

hope shofu changes his avatar to wolf when smash ultimate comes out

[@girlweird833]

Personal Japan Tier List (I don't hate anyone in Japan Time btw) Shofu, Zef, MacDareth, Roger, Warchamp, and then Coast.

[@dwalkrun4718]

Yeah but there is also Ricky who was tier 0 so he was banned

[@bobby2643]

Didn't u leave off like 2 people at least

[@ChaddyFantome]

Where the hell is Ricky Cocaine?

[@Dr.Farewell]

Warchamp is easily bottom tier

[@radiantburrito]

Dr. Farewell U right

[@IceHammer872]

FYI, The New Intro is CLEAN AS FUCK *Pay whoever Edited it.*

[@nikkictu2049]

Dark pit does have the same moveset as pit in kid icarus uprising though. His staff is so irrelevant. I guess he uses his staff to snipe but literally everything else is the same. When you play as him, he functions exacty the same as pit when characters like magnus don't, so you can't say for simplicity sake he plays the same. That was an intentional choice that he plays the same in kid icarus. He's literally Pit's evil twin.

[@presidentc4]

*We want the facts.*

[@TheJayninja22]

Ndkauba came in smooth, and I was like "WHAT? My boy Ndkauba in the building?!"

[@cynical_perks8725]

"Fuck fun. I want the facts." shofu 2018

[@davidmcdavidson9931]

Boys better talk about simon belmont leak.

[@3gs.nation]

David Mcdavidson they better it has to be real at this point right?

[@maxshapiro078]

This is my prediction for the rest of the roster: Impa Lycanroc Waddle Dee Spring Man Isaac Rex Dixie Kong (echo fighter) Shadow (echo fighter) Rayman Crash Bandicoot

[@DeArisJinks]

What’s up with the hate for ARMS man....the game still has a huge community. Having an arms character will make it be seen by more ppl getting them interested. Nobody was playing fire emblem u till melee

[@presidentc4]

I think wedding Mario replaced fire Mario because they're both white palletes. I know they don't look alike but it defeats the purpose of the feature if the base color is the same for two attires.

[@sammy1025]

Love these bro keep em coming 😤💪

[@pointlessrat]

Most fitting character imo for the roster is banjo kazooie, glad someone mentioned

[@KandiKid87]

On the topic of music MIDGAR NEEDS MORE THAN TWO. Jenova’s theme, Costa Del Sol. GOLD DAMN SAUCER. Juno could get in too. Lol. But yeah, I’m psyched for Ultimate’s soundtrack. Hahahahaha. Music is one of the only things that keeps me going to Smash 4. That and it’s my favorite fighting franchise. Lol.

[@maxshapiro078]

Halim Colson Also Sonic needs WAY more remixes.

[@Godojira]

Bowser’s trailer has a remix from Legend of the 7 Stars.

[@DeejayTheMenace]

Shofu! Link my boy Ndukauba's KZbin channel in the description. Give him his clout!

[@iXiClub]

You guys need to figure out a way to get the audio levels equal. Shofu's mic is CRAZY loud compared to everyone else, and he's constantly "yelling."

[@YamashitaKoikeDS]

They really should give Ridley faster aerial movement. You can't say characters should add uniqueness to the game and then go against key element's that gives them their personality. I also hope that they give Samus the ability to turn into a ball and roll around. Project M did it though and they have the charge shot in the air as well so there really is no excuse

[@Neoxon619]

Real talk, if we were gonna get a Smash Ultimate reveal at EVO, Nintendo would have pushed for Smash Wii U to be on Sunday instead of Melee. It's not that Melee having an Ultimate reveal at the end isn't possible, it's just that I'd imagine that it's more likely that Nintendo would want the news to go with the more recent Smash game.

[@RaptorRM-MineCraft]

What’s that remix of AOT song called??

[@solototheyolo3535]

Oops, having the podcast image as episode 13 in the 14th episode, oh well what can you do.

[@toppothegodofdestruction6626]

You know how in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate website, it shows Sheik as #16 while Zelda is #17. Shouldn’t it be flipped? As shown in Melee’s intro, Zelda debuted before Sheik.

[@GigaMan91]

2 hours?! HOO boy!

[@peaceunreal4051]

Little Mac got buffed the most for this smash 😏

[@BuNnyDuDeDaRoO]

Alolan execgutor grass check. Alolan check. Nigga guna swing its neck and swipe the whole stage

[@MetalSnakeXIII]

I swear if people started spamming Smashville AGAIN I'm gonna stop watching Smash tournaments for good

[@j0gurt612]

Struggling to beat Blooper during video, wish me luck

[@JagrasSneedandFeed]

I still can't get over how clean the new intro is

[@comfy8246]

Hell yeah Comfy time

[@oblivionwyvern3933]

So who's excited for Jump Force?

[@amirfleurizard195]

“Waluigi is too tall for smash”

[@Bmacthesage]

RollingPaper, dont forget "ridley is too big to be in smash".

[@amirfleurizard195]

It was a joke

[@1982pokemon]

Didn't they announce mega Kang at worlds in 2013?

[@arcluz77]

Shovel Knight is already in a official upcoming fighting game. It's called #BladeStrangers.

[@Jqirus]

Why does Mcdareth sound like Arlo?

[@STRONTIumMuffin]

tasty

[@TheGloryXros]

1:25:45 THANK YOU!!! MY GOSH, I'm so tired of people saying Shadow should be an Echo Fighter for Sonic, when Shadow EASILY has enough to make himself a completely different character!!! SCREW Echo Fighters! Why settle for less?!! Neutral Special=Homing Attack; if he presses it more Shadow does the Chaos Attack from Sonic 06 Side Special=Chaos Spear Up Special=??? (Don't think the Spring Jump fits for Shadow) Down Special=Chaos Blast Final Smash=Chaos Control

[@TheGloryXros]

A ....Why does that CONFIRM Shadow would be an Echo Fighter...?

[@deadlyshoc]

14:25 ouch.. that hurt.

[@TheGamer279]

Can anyone find Dark Pit in the artwork?

[@kidbuumer4780]

Jayda0ne The pic only shows about half the roster.

[@TheGamer279]

ah I never noticed that lol

[@ShootEmUpStar]

I feel that although you can definitely make Sora work in smash bros, because you wouldnt be able to use any Disney references, the heart of his character would just be stripped out and he would just be more like cloud than other swordsman. And this is coming from someone who adores both the character and the series. I could see sakurai feeling a similar type of way possibly which could keep him out based on what hes said in the past.

[@nikkictu2049]

I mean he has spells he can use. Curaga would be interesting to see in smash and he would only need to reference characters in a final smash where he has his different forms right?

[@TheGloryXros]

Why not just have the Disney stuff in his Final Smash? But I'm not seeing why the Disney stuff is so vital to his moveset?

[@ShootEmUpStar]

The GloryXros well in my opinion, shying away from the Disney stuff would just feel really awkward because well he spends the entirety of his adventures with 2 prominent Disney characters. Like I said, it's possible but you're stripping part of the character away which also doesnt accurately represent the character to the fullest. All due to legal stuff. And in terms of the final smash, they would still have to get permission from Disney and that's the major thing regarding sora, would Disney let sakurai use their IPs for his game. I'm going to go off on a limb and say i dont think they have the budget for that and understandably so.

[@nikkictu2049]

What he's saying is even in the kingdom hearts games Disney isn't that much apart of his moveset. His forms would be the only exception to that. The summons are pretty important too but I wouldn't say that Sora's soul would be ripped out of him and that he's not Sora without his summons or forms. I see your point though.

[@thadream_13_10]

Shofu he talking about the dingdong combo it’s a true combo at around 50 that kills at 50

[@istalkkP]

It's not that far-fetched to think something could be revealed at EVO or some other major event. Trying to predict Sakurai using previous statements and reveal history is a grounded, realist way of thinking. But so was thinking that Cloud Strife would never be in Smash Bros. Don't be so quick to dismiss, the sky is ALWAYS the limit with Smash.

[@MaineMaineJr]

It was 358/2 on ds

[@kingofstuff8148]

I’m loving the attack on titan remix

[@laker249]

1:06:20 😂😂😂

[@scaryjokes3311]

i don’t think the snipperclips music is a cacophony, but this is probably slightly biased since bo en is my favorite artist lmao

[@e77gma]

But where is that Pokemon clock tower ep go

[@s0shu342]

365/2 days and dream drop distance too

[@oblivionwyvern3933]

So far in Tennis Aces I'm really liking Chain Chomp.

[@GreyRaj_YT]

I need Incineroar in this game, if he gets in, him and Mewtwo are like the closest to being ‘Pokémon villains’ in a sense, cuz u know dark type is evil and all that, and I love me some villains. He be fightin dirty, using his dick fire and shit hot damn

[@ninjaruss4205]

shofu didn't like pokken? i thought he loved it for a while lol

[@1982pokemon]

ninjaruss while looking like two weeks

[@ninjaruss4205]

i remember he loved it in the beginning but he was turned off by the ranking system. i wonder if it was that or he just got bored i guess

[@1982pokemon]

That, and the fact that the game falls flat as a competitive game. Literally all RPS. I really wanted to get into it, but put it down for good after a month or two.

[@s0shu342]

But duck hunt and Bowser jr had trailers._.

[@BigTurboTrucker]

but where's clockwork?

[@PintoBeans9637]

Ndukauba? Cool

[@AnImbecile47]

I like bowser jr. I’ve been maining him I’m smash for years.

[@Magnet_Chaos]

I Daisy is "real character" enough to be in Smash. Then s is Waluigi.

[@splash6882]

Damn thanks for the Mario Aces spoilers ._.

[@spectertheape6612]

Lmao *Who's Jimmy* that was funny XD

[@jayj3751]

1:24:00

[@prospect689]

Where is the Vegetarian Beef Patty!!😤

[@skoozy8614]

Am I the only one thinking First DLC Crash Bandicoot and Shadow?

[@493Darkrai]

Why would an echo fighter be DLC aside from Octolings.

[@skoozy8614]

A i mean, we don’t know that shadow will be an echo fighter

[@TechV02]

ok i need someone here who knows stuff about competitive we now have battlefield type of stages. why do people still dont want to use them in competitive when the game is gonna be out? arent they all legal in thoses ways?

[@kidbuumer4780]

Mister LN Probably because it makes it simpler to organize. Battlefield omegas were made so you could listen to more music on Battlefield, same goes for the new Final Destination forms. Tournament players don’t care about what music plays in the background, if they do they bring earbuds.

[@AdamSmasherReal]

I'm nessmain127 and I main Bowser JR.

[@A.E.S.R]

So will echo fighters have there own character slot on the character screen or will they be like Alph, be a "color change" for Olimar. still confused on that subject.

[@slowpokefriedrice]

Andres1493 Echo Fighters have their own slot. Alph is still just a color change for Olimar.

[@thebluePumpking]

Alph is a costume just like Pikachu Libre, Echo fighters count as own characters (they get an own slot in the roster)

[@MFPICKLEO]

to be honest i feel like shofu needs to be the host of japan time instead of roger

[@MFPICKLEO]

honestly no joke we need this man to takeover

[@Tonster869]

My preditcions 70 base characters and 5 echoes 1. King K Rool 2. Dark Samaus ( echo character) 3. Shadow (echo character) 4. Decidyue( I'd prefer mimkiyu) 5. Balloon Fighter or any retro rep 6. Any Xenoblade rep (I haven't played any one besides the shulk one sorry) 7.Simon Belmont My dlc predictions 5 total so it's at least 80 characters 1. Crash Bandicoot ( the best chance for a new third party, they are doing really well together and it's a hope of mine but I truly believe he's dlc) 2. Geno ( he's not going to be in the base game but he's going to be in smash ult) 3. Dixie Kong( Two DK reps sound crazy in a base game but one base and one dlc sounds like something that makes sense) 4. Issac( he will get the little Mac treatment this game but it's going to be dlc) 5. Chorus Kids( It's pretty much been confirmed they would have been in smash 4, I don't think they are in base game I think it's a dlc thing) My three dlc hopes 1. Waluigi (I made a whole moveset on another video for him) 2. Banjo Kazzoie ( my most wanted character) 3. Crash Bandicoot ( it's possible plus I want Mario vs Crash vs Banjo vs Sonic)

[@MsSoulBlader]

"really big, comes out quick" wait- pause!

[@PR0MAN01]

Stop talking about Geno. Nobody in the wider world gives a shit about Geno anymore if they did at all. If they revealed him before launch to get hype, it would be the most flaccid reveal trailer.

[@luke1stars1masher]

If fighting a character is not fun, why should I fight them??? Fuck if I care about your fun, if you dont care about anyone else's? I'd hit skip every time.

[@natoriousthehopeful2786]

What's wrong with seeing the character of the other players? I would like to see that in For Glory!

[@1982pokemon]

Jeremy Woodruff cause then you'd just choose who to not play against based on match up.

[@moedrak]

YEET

[@ScoopsMayCry]

I got killed by DK’s backhit. Lost a set for it. Yeah that shit needs to be removed. Anyone’s backhit needs be removed.

[@s0shu342]

I'm praying for fountain of dreams

[@ikonthehero]

Clout token cash in

[@timeweoya]

Waluigi will get his day...

[@shanelloyd853]

Do people really think we're getting more characters before release that aren't dlc!?

[@ninjaruss4205]

of course lol. he wouldn't reveal every character 6 months before release. i would say there's at least 2 more new characters and at least 1 echo.

[@shanelloyd853]

ninjaruss Idk. I find that kinda hard to believe honestly.

[@shanelloyd853]

A Not saying it's impossible. Just trying not to get my hopes up and potentially be dissapointed later.

[@ryanieyoub4870]

Dumb

[@Dellennickolis95]

Who said that we wouldn’t get new Characters that aren’t dlc? The problem with Nintendo fans is that they constantly pull false patterns out of no where and push them as fact. Your not Sakurai

[@lequanmungin8363]

this ep was wack

[@Brospokenerd424]

Sceptile shouldn't just be added, it should replace Charizard's overrated tail.

[@xxxconqconq3095]

First

[@anonwalkerr]

yo thats crazy

[@oblivionwyvern3933]

Roger is back :(

[@illusionofartYT]

OblivionWyvern so shady lol

[@Licw-Luxus]

Sucks that Roger is back... :/

[@shofuscoot4940]

It's so much better without Roger.

[@Treekco24]

It's really not
