    There are so many damn characters in this game that I just forget about some. I just remembered Meta Knight is in it.

    They shouldn't cut anybody from Smash.

    This is a good sentiment but it may also be literally, physically impossible

    Smash continuing to grow is hitting a breaking point where the people making it can't really keep up anymore
    Then let this be the Final Smash

    And if you lose as a character you can never play them again

    Though if actual cuts were to made I'd start with at least collapsing echo fighters into just being costumes and if any character has multiple entries then they only get one (though is that just Link at this point?)

    Characters that are currently not echo fighters but have similar moves/stats/mechanics would also be collapsed into costumes

    Significant differences could potentially warrant different slots but ideally each character would have moves that were as unique as possible

    So put all the star fox characters just become fox costumes, Marth/Lucina/Chrom/Roy just get collapsed into marth, Pichu becomes a Pikachu costume, Ganondorf either gets more mechanically unique versions of his existing moves or he gets cut because the weight and franchise difference means he can't be a Captain Falcon costume, Lucario and mewtwo average out their move sets, Isabell becomes a villager alt, Dark Pit is gone, Zero Suit stays or somebody inherits her moveset I don't really care, I guess Ike Shulk and Cloud stay separate but in a pinch I'd cut Ike, Luigi and Mario could also stay separate I think, Ness and Lucas are obviously combined, same for Ken and Ryu as well as Simon and Richter, and last but not least Young Link and Toon Link are replaced by Shovel Knight

    That brings it down to like 40 or 50 slots right

    I can only imagine a character gets cut due to licensing or technical limitation of the next console

    Not quite the case in the past. Wolf and Mewtwo were both missing from the following games they debuted in.

    I put that poorly - I was thinking more “technical change which causes rework, limiting what they can do” than “3ds can’t handle ice climbers”. Melee to Brawl you had an increase in graphical detail to the point that they put that in the announcement trailer, and 4 went to hd. I’m expecting the switch’s successor isn’t going to be 4k or anything that’s going to obligate them to significantly rework the characters they have

    Nintendo Crossing

    Mario calls you over to ask "Can you bring Mewtwo this shirt for me? I think he'd look very good in it!"


    Haha, I just realized we're bound to get World of Light comics by Katie Tiedrich. Roy can't ever catch a break from being vaporized.

    They could've tried a Smash Royale, put 100(or 20 even) fighters in a big Smash Run stage that slowly gets smaller and smaller until it's the size of Final Destination and whoevers left fights to the death.

    I mostly just wanted Smash Run back.

    Can we get the chemicals in. 'Cause anything's better than this.

    Apparently that amiibo is actually just a repainted version of the Cute But Deadly series figure that Blizzard put out two years ago with an amiibo base stuck on, lmao

    Went out to Gamestop and Target today and got my Gamecube controller and adapter. The controller is lighter than I remember, the buttons sound clickier too though that might just be because it's about 17 years newer than my other ones.

    No joke. Make a bluetooth Wavebird and I'd be 100% happy. I love the analog triggers.

    I need to get a spare controller or two for smash. But that’s gonna turn a $70 purchase into possibly a $200 one. Although, the one guy I know IRL who would play with me already has a GameCube controller for Wii U...

    Pokémon Let's Go apparently doesn't support Pro controllers?

    Like, it was kinda acceptable for Super Mario Party, but for the most outreaching game on the Switch so far? You're really not gonna honor your "so many ways to play" like that?
