Laharl may be a blue haired swordsman but he's such a hilarious douchebag I'll let it slide.
It should be noted that Diddy Kong Racing DS was handeled by Rare's handheld team, which, to be honest, never really made super great games, even when Nintendo and Rare were together.
The Donkey Kong Land games and Grunty's Revenge aren't necessarily bad, but they definitely feel like "C-Team" games, same thing with something like Conker's Pocket Tales. Ultimately I think there's kind of a reason they're not typically brought up when people are talking about how great Rare's games were.
Hoops. Now that's a game with a good roster and an aesthetically pleasing character select screen. I miss the days of Dixie and Birdo showing up in Mario spinoffs. Also, those FF characters are very nice and I love their designs. White Mage is almost, like, proto Rosalina.
Apologies if this has been posted before, but what are people's thoughts on this?

It's a long video, but basically it boils down to them using math to predict the fighter pass will consist of
1). Birdo (Yoshi echo)
2). The Prince (from Prince of Persia)
3). Sirfetch'd
4). Ryo (from Shenmue)
5). Monokuma and Monomi
6). Geno.
I of course don't think that will be it, but in terms of who was picked, it feels as unpredictable as FP2 is likely to be. But then I suppose one wouldn't be able to predict it with math.
Also, whatever happened to Crash? Didn't someone who predicted Byleth way before anyone was talking about them predict him next? Did that leaker get proven as false/lucky, or is it just that since they never leaked anything before they have no credibility really other than one correct guess?

Would probably be Laharl but either would be interesting despite not being to huge on the series.
But I know I say it shouldn't be a big deal often in these matters, but does Etna have ANY art that could make it in this game?
I'd be down for a Disgaea character so long as it's not a Prinny (not a fan of mascot characters when there are perfectly good actual protagonists).
The more obscure JRPGs we get, the less people can object to Estelle.
That Crash guy came out and admitted he wasn't real.

That has been discussed and it's still a terrible list.Apologies if this has been posted before, but what are people's thoughts on this?

Ah okay! Good to know on both fronts! Sorry for bringing up an old topic, or old topic(s) at that.

Strange choices, but I would love Birdo as a Yoshi echo.
As for Crash, the guy that predicted him said a regular direct was coming weeks ago. He was a lucky guesser or deleted old tweets before blowing up.
Such great art, style, vibe, visuals, music....Hoops. Now that's a game with a good roster and an aesthetically pleasing character select screen. I miss the days of Dixie and Birdo showing up in Mario spinoffs. Also, those FF characters are very nice and I love their designs. White Mage is almost, like, proto Rosalina.
But holy shit was it ever frustrating, the CPU were unforgiving

It's kinda weird we never got that more flexible cactuar design in the mainline Final Fantasy games, would stick out a little less than the one that basically has no animation frames in the hyper-real FFXV
But yeah I kinda miss Square Enix making Mario games, it was a weird fun time
Smash 4 has probably the worst opening theme in my opinion. For me it goes Ultimate > Melee > Brawl > 64 > 4
Ulitmate's theme is okay without lyrics but with them it immediately plummets to second-worst, just above 64's.
You know, I may have actually legitimately broken my own ds phat because of it, I'm ashamed to admit but this comic awakened an old memory
People hate on Lifelight way too damn much. It's a damn catchy anime OP.
It does that annoying "Let's translate a Japanese song that clearly wasn't intended to be in English and not bother to make it fit in with the inherently faster language" thing that so many other localized anime and games do.
Like there's a reason Utada Hikaru almost quit doing songs for Kingdom Hearts over this.
I know it doesn't bother a lot of people but it really gets on my nerves.
I do like Lifelight but there's something about it that just feels kinda manufactured to me
It feels like they saw the overwhelming postive reception toward Mario Odyssey's Jump Up Super Star and wanted to captialize on it by giving Smash its own vocal theme equivalent. Trying to make lightning strike twice, basically.

I mean for real, look at these lyrics
But sung in freakin' Latin
It's so cheesy it's amazing
It's Sakurai's magnum opus

I kinda got burned out on it because it was in a LOT of AMV's and such after Brawl but it's still good.
This feels like a stretch to me. Heck Smash had a vocal theme long before Odyssey.
Sure, but it was a weird unique latin thing. Whereas Lifelight is cleariy in English like Jump Up Super Star.
I mean a lot of lyrical theme's are in english.
It's just an anime theme.
The first Ultimate teaser trailer was released not really that many months after Odyssey and contained Lifelight in it
It didn't have lyrics, but I would be very surprised if they just added lyrics to a song not written for them because a song in another game was well received
And did it in 6ish months
In 2 languages

I don't know how good this game is, but the art style is FANTASTIC! Who's responsible?Hoops. Now that's a game with a good roster and an aesthetically pleasing character select screen.

Gen Kobayashi, apparently. Also did the illustations for The World Ends With You.
I don't think they added English lyrics to Lifelight because of Jump Up, Super Star but that does seem to be the trend with their big games now.
Three Houses also had Edge of Dawn which didn't have nearly the same amount of care put into it as the English version of Lost in Thoughts All Alone and was as similarly terrible as Lifelight.
I wouldn't be surprised if Xenoblade DE gets a poorly localized song too.

Yeah and it did it better than Jump Up Super Star. Actually it's kind of funny how many games during that string of releases had vocal tracks.
Square-Enix! Not sure which team. They also made Mario Sports Mix for the Wii, which might I add has a boss fight with Behemoth.
That explains a lot!
Didn't Sakurai mention he wanted a lyical motif from the beginning to surpass previous Smash themes? I doubt Odyssey had much of an influence.
Anyway, I thought Lifelight was so lovley I included it on a gaming music CD for my niece. Y'all haters are whack.

Smash only reaches peak corniness when it tries to have a plot
Brawl was just a taste, but Ultimate confirmed it beyond a doubt
Ah, I see the similarities between the two games.
Lol, that looks so silly. Kind of reminds me of Mario Party boss fights.
To be fair, NoA went out of their way to get a Broadway actress for Azura in the case of Lost in Thoughts All Alone.
Already done.
Except the poorly localized part, because I actually like this track.
