Plus if we're gonna count that Falco backroll we could also count Palutena who does a mini teleport so it could be difficult to tell right away which direction she's dodging (even tho in practice it's usually not hard)
It's a real shame that it's stuck in only that side mode. Also: Smash Flash 2 actually has the death sound for Pac-man when you Star KO him, so props to them
The reason why Steve doesn't place cobblestone is probably because it'd be pretty hard to tell how close to breaking cobblestone is in the heat of battle, due to its texture. Really, if Steve did place cobblestone blocks instead of stone blocks, everyone would probably be complaining about that.
I mean yeah? It makes sense since he just crafts them right then and there, and wood tools can’t really have silk touch without it being completely wasted...
9:34 Steve doesn’t drop his materials not because it would confuse players or Sakurai didn’t consider that, but because when Steve joined Smash, he turned on /keepInventoryTrue
@@why3994 i wonder how many comments say "i wonder how many comments say " i wonder how many comments say "Missed opportunity: [their most wanted character in smash"]?
as cool as that would be, i dont really see how it would be able to look good while being fast, and also rolling with a nonexistant hitbox makes me want to punt inkling lOl
@@env3lop that’s the one little detail I’m really surprised they didn’t do. There’s a fan moveset on YT that does that and I love it a lot. Idk, I’m glad they kept Steve faithful to Minecraft for sure, but they still definitely could have added more cool little things like that.
Inkling should also get their death sounds played, could even make it so they explode with ink and release the ghost thingy when they lose a stock in stamina mode.
@@toxichunter9 Yeah. Although the only problem with this is that it technically wouldn't count as a victory by that logic, since he just flees. But if he kept his death animation form most of the kirby games other characters can too, like Mario when spins around and falls when he dies, or Ridley starts friggin exploding for no reason
Here's a pretty simple missed opportunity: they should've added more special victory voice lines like with fox/falco, pit/dark pit etc. If Meta Knight beat Kirby he could say "Now I truly am the strongest," or Cloud could tell Sephiroth "stay where you belong, in my memories." There's so many they could do, maybe even interacting with other series like Sonic sneering at Mario or something.
Or if he falls off stage he it should say "Steve fell from a high place" or if he gets launched there it should say "Steve jumped off to avoid [Character]"
This one is sort of a stretch, but it's funny, using powered rails with the minecart onto water could show death.fell.accident.water (The way you do this is by falling onto the solid part of a waterlogged block like a top slab, in a minecart, via being pushed by a piston)
yeah! some of them could be the "olimar is down" music that happens when you loose all your health in pikmin 1, the mario death sound, and pac-mans death sound
Steve's Star KO should be "Steve fell out of the world" Also, I'm surprised the four Minecraft characters didn't have any unique death sounds, especially since there could've been one for each character. Steve: Classic "oof" Alex: Modern fall damage noise (which is technically in the game already) Zombie: hurt and death sounds Enderman: hurt and death sounds
I was hoping for those sounds in the game as well! Especially the classic "oof" noise, but I love the Zombie alt and wish I could hear some of it's growls.
Hot take: I think Steve's better off without the oof sound. As funny as it is, it'd be weird having him never make any sounds, and then suddenly say oof when dying. It would feel out of place.
Would also be neat if there were more visual differences between them all. Notably, have Zombie swing both arms for most of the normal attacks/have both arms up in idle and walk animations, and have Enderman’s dodges be teleports like Mewtwo/Palutena. Like everything has the same frame data and all, just slightly different animations/sounds
Missed Oportunity idea: When a Zelda character is using the Special Flag to recover a stock, the fanfare that plays when you get an Item from a chest would play. I think it would be more cooler that the fanfare would change to resemble the game where they are from, but that would make Sheik, Y. Link and Ganondorf have the exact same but whatever.
Very cool idea! Mario characters and Sonic could have the 1-up sound that plays from their respective games. I'm sure there are others that have reward/1 up sounds but those 2 series are the first to come to mind.
feathero3 every RPG has a minimum of 1 sound effect that is played as a reward, every platformer has a 1up, item collection, or stage clear sound. Fighting game characters could have the menu sounds from their games when you select them.
@@feathero3 Yeah, but what 1Up sound would Sonic's be based off of? The Sonic that's in Smash is most likely the Sonic from 06 as proven by his victory theme
@@pvzmariosonica8fan probably the modern one that was repurposed from the original chaos emerald jingle? it's been that since adventure and hasn't really changed much since
And bowser should have his weird yelling sound from Super Mario Bros 3 when dying using the bowser bomb at the bottom blast zone. Its situational, but cool. And botw link can make is “OUWAAAAA” when dying at the bottom blast zone assuming he isnt meteorsmashed.
My own idea for a missed opportunity: What if on firey volcano-like stages (like Brinstar depths) Steve mined netherite instead of diamonds. It would be a neat reference!
When Mario gets launched by the lava in Norfair, Great Cave, stage builder, etc. he should do his “I just burned myself” animation like in the 3D Mario games.
Some missed opportunities I always think of: -Young Link doesn't use the versions of the Bow or Hookshot from Majora's Mask, instead using the ones adult Link does in Ocarina of Time. In Ocarina of Time, Young Link couldn't even use those items, so it's odd that they didn't give him his Majora's Mask items when remaking him in Ultimate. Also, it's a shame they didn't give him a Fierce Deity Mask final smash. -Ganondorf's Warlock Punch is a backhanded punch that shoots out a wave of darkness. Before you fight Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time, he shows the Triforce of Power on the back of his hand and shoots out a wave of darkness. It would be a nice detail if the Triforce of Power lit up on his hand while charging Warlock Punch, giving the move a cool reference and making it more his own. -King Dedede is often fought in a ring in the Kirby games. His ring even appears in his final smash. It would be cool if his version of the ring could appear as a variant for the Boxing Ring Stage, similar to how there are Punch-Out and Smash Bros variants already. Maybe they could even replace the generic animated people in the stage with the Kirby and Mario characters in the crowd in Kirby games. While we're at it, they could even make a variant based on the boxing ring from Donkey Kong 64! -In Smash 3DS, the Dream Land GB stage had a choosable black and white variant in addition to the normal green tint. In Smash Ultimate however, they removed the black and white variant. It would be great if they brought back the black and white variant, and while they're at it, a variant based on the Game Boy Color look would be nice too!
Young link is substitute for the original link, that's why he uses those items. If they didn't replace link with botw then yes the argument can be made
3:20 When you brought this idea up a few seconds earlier, I immediately thought that the unlock method would be something like getting a 9.9 in classic mode as that fighter, and you get a unique costume, like one of Mario's different costumes on certain maps in early Mario Party games.
Missed opportunity: The Belmonts should be able to crouch and forward tilt at the same time. It's been around since the first Castlevania game and it's even more strange now that Min-Min can do it.
I feel like we could give the pokémon unique pokeballs for their stage entrances. Pokéball for Pikachu (He's the mascot) Love Ball for Jigglypuff Master Ball for Mewtwo Nest Ball for Pichu (A ball that works best or low level pokémon) Friend Ball for Lucario (Riolu evolves into Lucario with high friendship) Dive Ball for Greninja and Dusk Ball for Incineroar (Idk he's Dark type)
maybe a Heavy Ball for Incineroar, because he's tied with Charizard for the heaviest Pokémon rep in Smash. Also, a Luxury Ball would be better for Lucario imo, because it also helps with gaining friendship with a pokémon and looks cooler.
I like this idea! Especially Master Ball for Mewtwo since he is a legendary. Maybe since Poke'mon Trainer uses all standard Poke'balls, Pikachu could use a Quick Ball instead? I've seen that bundled with toy versions of him before. At the very least it would be cool if the Poke'Ball was simply random for each Poke'mon character at the start of a match.
@@NightFreeze9128 oh, ok. I mean... It's a cool idea, but since Mewtwo and Lucario are treated like some sort of actual character (they both speak, even if Mewtwo only does in the Japanese version), I think it makes more sense for them to have a unique animation...
From Awakening onward, each soldier in Fire Emblem got their own little voice line celebrating a victory in combat. It would have been really cool if Robin, Chrom, and Corrin's victory animations featured those same lines. You could also add the sound of the FE experience bar in the background - THAT would be an awesome nod.
Missed Opportunity: Kirby could instantly wear goggles when he enters the water like he does in several Kirby games like Kirby Star Allies, Kirby’s Return To Dreamland, etc.
@@AverageDoctor345 maybe they did not have the technology back in smash 64. then again, his dash attack was changed from that breakdancing attack to burning like in melee
To add fun and more food for posibilities 4:12 instead of 8 alts, make the koopa clown kart golden Or instead of gold, platinum or prismatic, so it's better for the team since many character have yellow alts or are mostly yellow
One missed opportunity I would’ve loved for Steve was him wearing iron armor when he grabs the metal box, since his metal model is super plain since he’s just a bunch of boxes
Missed opportunity: Not having Daisy saying "Hi I'm Daisy!" as one of her taunts. Hey, if Peach can have an annoying taunt, Daisy deserves one too lmao
@@MiguelMem This was the sole reason why the guys at the college hated when I picked Peach. I kept spamming that taunt when I'm the last man standing during a match!
since rex is generally a pretty positive guy from what i remember, so he would probably still at least flash a thumbs up or something, but yeah i can definitely picture him being worn out when using that taunt at high %
I feel like a big one was not remixing brawl themes, they started remixing n64 and melee themes since brawl but they still haven’ remixed any brawl themes? Just there should also be the original song alongside obviously.
It's so sad he got lumped in with the other Mario victory themes, especially with how drastically different his series is! We need more Dr. Mario representation!
@@squiddy1132 I actually had a few ideas to me Dr. Mario stand out more not just as a character but for his series in general: 1.) Make him feel more like a doctor by incorporating more elements into his moveset like changing the animation of his Forward Smash to better mimic a Defibrillator, using his stethoscope for his pummel, almost like a palm thrust to the chest, and have him inspect a clipboard in the style of the original NES game for his up taunt. 2.) Give both Mario and Dr. Mario different moves and animations to differentiate their characteristics and playstyles. Doc's dash attack would stay the same but Mario's would change to resemble the dive move from Super Mario 64 (and a few other Mario games too), to showcase how each of their launch angles aren't the same. Doc's Down Smash could be an electric palm thrust similar to that of his Forward Smash but on both sides of him like Lucario's Down Smash, only that it would be slower than Mario's but safer on shield and packs more of a punch. His down throw would stay the same, but Mario's would change to be the Ground Pound similar to Luigi's down throw expect launching behind Mario instead of in front of him. Make the throwing animation of Doc's neutral special reflect how he tosses megavitamins in his games, which would also make it travel more distance than Mario's. Lastly, the Final Smash should reference a game of Dr. Mario by having the pill's rain down from the sky; for fun, the background of the Final Smash could have a checkered pattern referencing his game as well. Those are my ideas at least.
Ike and Roy deserve unique victory themes based on their games just like the Awakening characters, Corrin, and Byleth. Ganondorf and Wolf could also do with personalized victory themes, and while I appreciate Bowser and Ridley at least getting their own remixes of the hero themes, they could’ve easily gotten the K. Rool / Sephiroth treatment of implementing their original villain music
@@ABAgamer_ I’m not very knowledgeable of their respective game OSTs - I know almost solely of the songs in Smash - so maybe there are tracks far better for it than my suggestions but off the top of my head I’d go for “Ike’s Theme” (pretty sure it’s originally called “Eternal Bond”) and “Winning Road (Roy’s Hope)”
For Pokemon Trainers second costume, it would've been neat to have a team full of shinys. Like the Boy trainer has regular and the Girl trainer has shinys
Missed Opportunity: Inklings should’ve gotten an extended victory theme, being the continuation of the Splatoon 1 victory theme, just like how Cloud has the full FFVII victory theme
I think it would be cool if Alph would have rock Pikmin instead of Purple Pikmin, since in Pikmin 3 you can't obtain Purple Pikmin (atleast in the main story). It would just be a new Skin and not change anything since Alph is only a costume and not an echo (for whatever reason).
yeah! I feel like louie would be a good olimar echo fighter, with an alt being brittany, purple and white pikmin being replaced with rock pikmin and bulbmin, and final smash being the titan dweevil. also purple pikmin should latch on like it does in the games
Getting rock Pikmin would push him over the edge into being an Echo. He's currents costume because he is 100% functionally identical to Olimar. Even as a reskin, I think the Rock Pikmin would be enough for that. But it's not like they had much of an actual reason for the number of playable characters from the beginning.
Missed opportunity: If Link used some other weapons for, say, his smash attacks. He's representing botw, and weapon switching sort of defined that game, so just having him pull out a spear for his f smash, or a club for his down smash, would be a super clever reference.
I feel like that's what was originally planned, since there was a rumor when Byleth released that another character was going to have his moveset, but they changed course when they were running short on time
One example of a sonic related missed opportunity is his victory theme. Smash uses the one from 06, which in that game, an acoustic version “His World” played on the results screen. They should have made this happen in Smash, like how cloud’s result screen music is different from the smash default.
Easily one of the biggest missed opportunities for me was giving Young Link a unique Final Smash. Even if it was functionally the same as Triforce Slash, it would have been awesome to see him wear the Fierce Deity mask and transform. But no, just the same-old same-old with no distinctions...
If it helps, they do this in Hyrule Warriors, where the Fierce Deity is Young Link’s unique mechanic. He builds up a meter that, when used, allows him to put on the Fierce Deity mask for increased damage, and he uses it for his special and magic attacks
Would have been cool to see an update to Lucina's idle pose to be more unique like Chrom has, where she uses her stance from FE: Awakening instead of the Marth idle animation.
There is a bunch of art of Mario doing his forward air with his fist on fire. It would be cool if they made his forward air have the fire effect (similar to some of Roy’s moves).
They referenced that in Charizard's trailer in Smash 4, which means that they definitely acknowledge it. Or maybe that trailer was what inspired all the artwork, idk. But yeah, that would be a really cool detail to add in future games
Missed Opportunity: When the match starts and someone is playing as steve, Instead of his mining entrance, have him just appear from thin air and in the bottom left it says "Steve joined the game."
This makes me realized how much opportunities is there to add cool small feature in the game. Sadly Nintendo probably won't do any details fixing to Smash beside adding dlc and changing Cloud Omislash that one time
When he dies it should say "Steve left the game". And when he respawns it will say he enteres the game again. It would also be cool if you could add your minecraft skin to replace over Steve but that will probably never happen.
I hate Steve's entrance so much. It could have been a Nether Portal, an ender pearl in, appearing with a notification that "Steve joined the game", landing with an elytra or a water bucket, or any other cool reference. But no, we get him lazily mining a few blocks that don't even line up with the Minecraft stage
Other than the ones that were shown in the video, here are some of my ideas: "Steve discovered the floor was magma" (When dying to lava on Great Cave Offensive) "Steve saw Mimikyu" (When dying to Mimikyu) "Steve was squished too much" (When being crushed, such as on Midgar when the stage fuses back together) "Steve fell out of the world" (When falling into the bottom blast zone)
Steve experienced kinetic energy This could be used if he dies to the road/walls on Mute City, Port Town Aerodive, the Pirate Ship, and the Spirit Tracks stage
One missed opportunity I think would have been nice was having a color of the original 12 characters with their 64 look, since the 64 stages kept that same 64 style. This could possibly work with Melee characters and maybe even Brawl characters as well.
I wish Steve had his old hit sound when he gets hit, I guess they didn't add it cause Alex doesn't have a hurt sound besides the universal one. Also the Zombie hurt sounds and Enderman hurt sounds would be cool too.
Even if they wanted to do that they probably couldn’t cause I think the old OOGH sound was a copyrighted sound Notch selected and didn’t have the permissions to use :/
When any pokemon character gets an effect that either increases or decreases any stat (Run speed, attack power etc.) The red or blue increasing or decreasing status effect from the pokemon games could play. The opposite however would be applied if a pokemon picks up a poison mushroom because it would play the red increasing effect for have more avasiveness similar to the move minimise from the pokemon series. (Opposite for mega mushroom)
Here's a neat idea. If the Minor Circuit theme (from punch out Wii) is playing in a 1 on 1 match, if you have the stock lead (or player 1 in the case of local play) The sound of getting your opponent knocked down will play, however, if your opponent (or player 2) is in the lead, the sound of little mac getting knocked down plays. Normal theme plays if Stocks are at an equilibrium.
Truly the most memorable moment in World of Light was when you could control Master Hand against a mob of fighters. A shame it isn't a regular mode like Mob Smash.
*(I don't know if someone has already done this, but I still want to share this "missed opportunity")* On Sonic's 30th anniversary they could've add Omochao as an assistant trophy. Omochao would be a troll. Instead of helping you, it will only bother you for a while talking non-stop, telling you things that you already know. "Did you know ..." "you can do ..." "you got a ..." He would only tell you _"useless facts"_
@@zenix6467 Huh? He was talking about separate roll mechanics. You might have some move names confused, because those two mechanics would be Bat Within and Foresight.
@@g.g.6623 oh then my bad I’m stupid lol but Foresight is Seeing the Future and Bayonetta uses Bat Within in her games to teleport not as far but still
nah the crits should be when he hits you with a falling aerial, just like minecraft. although if it doesn’t actually crit than it would probably just be confusing (in which case they might’ve already thought of that and decided not to add it)
I can just imagine litte Timmy picking the mouse with the detective hat on and freaking out when he hears a grown man's voice coming out of the mouse when he spams his neutral B
I've always thought mario's footstool should deal a bit of damage, since his main way of attacking in the mario games is by stomping. I know they want to keep him simple, but just having it do a tiny bit of damage would be a nice reference
@@YounesLayachi I mean, crouching isn't an attack either but that doesn't stop piranha plant. It wouldn't change Mario's playstyle at all, it would just be a nice little reference
Missed Opportunity: Diddy Kong should have a victory animation where he holds a boom box and wears sunglasses and his hat on backwards like in the dkc 2 level complete animation
*HIDDEN MESSAGE AT* 1:28 "I mean uhhhhhhh, it's one of the greatest games I HAVEN'T played haha. How could I have played it, it never released outside of Japan, and I'm European hahaha. Don't worry Nintendo, it was just a small joke, I definitely have never played Mother 3, since no English version exists and I can't speak or read Japanese. Anyway please ignore the English Mother 3 footage that's about to come up. I, uhhhhh... I had a Japanese friend of mine translate the footage and I edited the English text over it, yeah that's it, that's what happened haha. Also be sure to NOT check out the description as there is NO link to the origin of the video I used for said footage since it of course doesn't exist haha."
Sonic's entire moveset is a missed opportunity lmao. I have a fool's hope that Sakurai might some day update his abysmal moveset...like that's ever gonna happen. Also, why does nobody seem to remember that Sonic can run on water? He does it more than Luigi. He should be able to run on water, rather than Luigi.
Inkling has a special death animation when she dies from the scythe, Like in splatoon the squid floats up Imagine Pacman dying like he does in the game, Sonic going the special death animation, etc.
They would never do that because the Colonel's Japanese voice actor passed away, so the character was retired from the series out of respect to him. The Colonel appears prominently in Snake's CODECs, so it would be weird to have a bunch of new ones that don’t feature him at all, and they also couldn’t change his mentions of "Brawl" to just "Smash".
Leet 1337 they could have still had Otacon, Mei Ling, Naomi, Miller, Liquid, Raiden, Meryl, DeepThroat, Natstasha do calls. Or reference Big Boss with Zero, Sigint, Eva, The Boss, Para-Medic, Huey, Ocelot, etc. Snake's voice is still around so they could have recorded new lines
I’d like to see the characters completely gold, instead of clothes (expect for Yoshi, Kirby, etc, who don’t really have clothes). I like the idea of shining, also maybe a gold tint to the Player’s or CPU’s name tag.
The potion effect thing is actually a really neat idea. Really like that one. Tho I do think you'd have to keep the extra stuff like the cloud with jokers Poison just so players can quickly tell if someone was hit it with it
Another thing I‘d love to see would be the two sheep in the background of the Minecraft stage having different colors like in the original game, where certain colors have different chances of spawning. I‘d imagine the possibilities would be carried over, meaning, for example, that when you enter the stage, there‘s a 0.164% chance for one of the sheep to be pink.
It's more overused to say something is overused. Yes, that means I just used an overused term to say said overused term is overused and more overused than things that are considered overused, andnow I am overusing said overused te- *That's enough.*
It would make sense if ender man had warped wood, however they didn’t include anything from the latest updates in Steve. That was partially because it wasn’t finished when steve was being brainstormed. This would make there only 6 types, which could still be possible if some of them shared
Missed opportunity: Since Isabelle's final smash resembles the town's hall based on Animal crossing new leaf it would be cool if Tom Nook had his clothes from the same game
Missed opportunity: Link could go in to bullet time when he shoots with his bow inthe air. Or he could do a little flurry rush when doing a perfect dodge.
This isn't that related but when I first played Ultimate I totally thought that Link's final smash would be a flurry rush or his original triforce slash thing but instead of the triforce he would use stasis
A missed opportunity with Hero is that whenever he picks up something in dq 11, it plays a sound effect. I think it would be cool if it played that sound effect when he picks up an item
Steve could get the little pop. Also, it'd be hilarious if the links held their item over their head for a second (you could cancel it like incineroar poses)
Missed opportunity: At the end off luigis final smash he shoots whoever was sucked in it will release some ghosts from luigis mansion it wouldn't do any damage but it would be cool Ps: sry im late
Missed opportunity: When Joker loses a stamina battle on Mementos a navigator’s (Morgana, Futaba, or Akechi) voice line should play and his death animation from Persona 5 should play.
One of the things I think is a missed opportunity is that more stages don’t incorporate the gimmick that Boxing Ring has, where it changes it’s appearance of you hold L on the stage select screen. New Donk City could change from Day to Twilight like durning to New Donk City festival for example.
It’s a small thing but in Awakening when you cast magic there are these golden incantations that circle your character I’d have liked to see that with Robin since they gave Hero something similar referencing his games magic animations. Edit: Also after killing someone with his final smash pink flower petals could float down in reference to his class line's unique special Ignis.
This just might be me being a Panel de Pon fan, but when Kirby does his Stone transformation and if you decide to do nothing Kirby will just turn back on his own. Well what I would love to see is if Kirby transformation into Lip's garbage blocks it slowly turns into colored panels just like it does in Panel de Pon when you connect three or more panels of the same color touching the garbage block to make it disappear. It will act as a timer to show the player when Kirby's turning back on his own.
I got some ideas for missed opportunities for my favourite fighter: Inkling! Though Inkling already has details that reference Splatoon, there are some more that really aren't a big deal but would be cool to see. 1. The third alternate costume of Inkling (the yellow one) references the gear the player uses as Agent 3 from Splatoon 1, it would be cool if instead of keeping the normal weapons (Splattershot, Splat Roller, Inkbrush, Blaster and Slosher) Inkling also switched to the Hero variations (Hero Shot, Hero Roller, Herobrush, Hero Blaster and Hero Slosher). I understand if it didn't make sense to change all the weapons since Inkling in Smash mostly references Splatoon 1 and that game only had the Hero Shot, but hey, at least that weapon could be changed. 2. When you Super Jump in Splatoon a little marker appears on the ground showing where you're going to land. If the player lands directly on the stage and doesn't grab the ledge, a little and subtle marker would appear on the floor at the location of landing. 3. Similarly to the idea of messages displaying when Steve looses a stock and the effect Mega Man has when he also looses a stock, something like that could apply to Inkling. When you splat someone in Splatoon, a marker appears on the location where the opponent is splatted. This marker could appear on the blast zone if Inkling manages to KO an opponent, additionally a little text box could also appear maybe over Inkling's percentage saying "Splatted ! A similar message box could also appear when Inkling gets KOed saying "Splatted by " What do you think? Just some ideas I came up with for Inkling, hope you all like them.
10:04 When he talked about the zombie that could drop rotten flesh and the enderman dropping the ender pearl why not have it a rare chance of the ender pearl dropping. Like how rare they are in Minecraft?
Missed opportunity: Adding a stage where you can pick from any of the boss stage variants in WOL. The ones where it’s just an open field with no changes other than backgrounds
"The only charecter with a unique dodge is Terry."
Bayonetta:
Also Mythra
I think you meant Mythra
he then speaks about mythra right after lol
I had no idea Terry had a special dodge
Plus if we're gonna count that Falco backroll we could also count Palutena who does a mini teleport so it could be difficult to tell right away which direction she's dodging (even tho in practice it's usually not hard)
What makes it even more odd is that Pac-Man's death sound DOES appear in StreetSmash from SSB 3DS, but not the main game...
Yeah.. its really weird
It's a real shame that it's stuck in only that side mode.

Steve should not place stone blocks, he should place cobblestone blocks. He is not using a pickaxe enchanted with silk touch.
Exactly lol
The reason why Steve doesn't place cobblestone is probably because it'd be pretty hard to tell how close to breaking cobblestone is in the heat of battle, due to its texture. Really, if Steve did place cobblestone blocks instead of stone blocks, everyone would probably be complaining about that.
I mean yeah? It makes sense since he just crafts them right then and there, and wood tools can’t really have silk touch without it being completely wasted...

@@toxichunter9 Yeah. Although the only problem with this is that it technically wouldn't count as a victory by that logic, since he just flees. But if he kept his death animation form most of the kirby games other characters can too, like Mario when spins around and falls when he dies, or Ridley starts friggin exploding for no reason
“Go mythra! Go mythra!”
“Go pyra! ( gets demolished”
The outro was stellar
Here's a pretty simple missed opportunity: they should've added more special victory voice lines like with fox/falco, pit/dark pit etc. If Meta Knight beat Kirby he could say "Now I truly am the strongest," or Cloud could tell Sephiroth "stay where you belong, in my memories." There's so many they could do, maybe even interacting with other series like Sonic sneering at Mario or something.
This
Isn't the voice actor of Meta Knight dead? They could've thought of this in Brawl. :(
Sonic to Mario
"Sega does what Ninten-Don't! Haha"
Like overwatch voice lines at the start of the games where they give lord details and little jokes to each other
@@lval7778 What is a lord detail or do you mean lore?
When getting hit by Thwack: "Steve died to intentional game design"
y e s
yes
"Steve got outplayed."
Or if he falls off stage he it should say "Steve fell from a high place" or if he gets launched there it should say "Steve jumped off to avoid [Character]"
This one is sort of a stretch, but it's funny, using powered rails with the minecart onto water could show death.fell.accident.water
(The way you do this is by falling onto the solid part of a waterlogged block like a top slab, in a minecart, via being pushed by a piston)
I would've loved a "Game Over Theme" for any character when losing a challenge, almost every game has one, just like the victory themes
yeah! some of them could be the "olimar is down" music that happens when you loose all your health in pikmin 1, the mario death sound, and pac-mans death sound
It’s an interesting idea, but when would it play?
Missed opportunity: having piranha plant lullaby play when plant is asleep, along with a big bubble coming out oh it, as an homage to Mario 64
you're
goddamn
Correct!
Man!
Out oh it.
Steve's Star KO should be "Steve fell out of the world"
Also, I'm surprised the four Minecraft characters didn't have any unique death sounds, especially since there could've been one for each character.
Steve: Classic "oof"
Alex: Modern fall damage noise (which is technically in the game already)
Zombie: hurt and death sounds
Enderman: hurt and death sounds
I was hoping for those sounds in the game as well! Especially the classic "oof" noise, but I love the Zombie alt and wish I could hear some of it's growls.
Hot take: I think Steve's better off without the oof sound. As funny as it is, it'd be weird having him never make any sounds, and then suddenly say oof when dying. It would feel out of place.
Would also be neat if there were more visual differences between them all. Notably, have Zombie swing both arms for most of the normal attacks/have both arms up in idle and walk animations, and have Enderman’s dodges be teleports like Mewtwo/Palutena. Like everything has the same frame data and all, just slightly different animations/sounds
Maybe have the Totem of Undying sound for getting KO'd when they're not on their last stocks.
Enderman screaming in his death like in game would be funny asf 💀
Missed Oportunity idea: When a Zelda character is using the Special Flag to recover a stock, the fanfare that plays when you get an Item from a chest would play.
I think it would be more cooler that the fanfare would change to resemble the game where they are from, but that would make Sheik, Y. Link and Ganondorf have the exact same but whatever.
Very cool idea! Mario characters and Sonic could have the 1-up sound that plays from their respective games. I'm sure there are others that have reward/1 up sounds but those 2 series are the first to come to mind.
feathero3 every RPG has a minimum of 1 sound effect that is played as a reward, every platformer has a 1up, item collection, or stage clear sound. Fighting game characters could have the menu sounds from their games when you select them.
Only if they also have the animation

Missed opportunity, King k.rool should make the "auuggg" sound whenever someone footstools him, just like in his first Boss fight.
And bowser should have his weird yelling sound from Super Mario Bros 3 when dying using the bowser bomb at the bottom blast zone. Its situational, but cool.
And botw link can make is “OUWAAAAA” when dying at the bottom blast zone assuming he isnt meteorsmashed.
If they put that sound effect in I would die of laughter
I would love that! Very nice detail.
My own idea for a missed opportunity: What if on firey volcano-like stages (like Brinstar depths) Steve mined netherite instead of diamonds. It would be a neat reference!
oh shit netherite tools
I actually suggested something kind of similar back when Steve was first announced! But it wasn't taken too well...
In order to make the game less unfair, they would have to make it so diamonds and netherite do the same damage, which is inaccurate

Some missed opportunities I always think of:
-Young Link doesn't use the versions of the Bow or Hookshot from Majora's Mask, instead using the ones adult Link does in Ocarina of Time. In Ocarina of Time, Young Link couldn't even use those items, so it's odd that they didn't give him his Majora's Mask items when remaking him in Ultimate. Also, it's a shame they didn't give him a Fierce Deity Mask final smash.
-Ganondorf's Warlock Punch is a backhanded punch that shoots out a wave of darkness. Before you fight Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time, he shows the Triforce of Power on the back of his hand and shoots out a wave of darkness. It would be a nice detail if the Triforce of Power lit up on his hand while charging Warlock Punch, giving the move a cool reference and making it more his own.
-King Dedede is often fought in a ring in the Kirby games. His ring even appears in his final smash. It would be cool if his version of the ring could appear as a variant for the Boxing Ring Stage, similar to how there are Punch-Out and Smash Bros variants already. Maybe they could even replace the generic animated people in the stage with the Kirby and Mario characters in the crowd in Kirby games. While we're at it, they could even make a variant based on the boxing ring from Donkey Kong 64!
-In Smash 3DS, the Dream Land GB stage had a choosable black and white variant in addition to the normal green tint. In Smash Ultimate however, they removed the black and white variant. It would be great if they brought back the black and white variant, and while they're at it, a variant based on the Game Boy Color look would be nice too!
These r cool
For the last one, it'd be cool if they also added 1-2 for mushroomy Kingdom. I thought that was really cool
The dedede boxing ring is already a part of the gameboy stage though
Young link is substitute for the original link, that's why he uses those items.
If they didn't replace link with botw then yes the argument can be made
haha he said boxing ring funny haha
3:20
When you brought this idea up a few seconds earlier, I immediately thought that the unlock method would be something like getting a 9.9 in classic mode as that fighter, and you get a unique costume, like one of Mario's different costumes on certain maps in early Mario Party games.
Missed opportunity: The Belmonts should be able to crouch and forward tilt at the same time. It's been around since the first Castlevania game and it's even more strange now that Min-Min can do it.
That would make there bad MU’s so much better because there bad MU’s are the small characters

I feel like we could give the pokémon unique pokeballs for their stage entrances.
Pokéball for Pikachu (He's the mascot)
Love Ball for Jigglypuff
Master Ball for Mewtwo
Nest Ball for Pichu (A ball that works best or low level pokémon)
Friend Ball for Lucario (Riolu evolves into Lucario with high friendship)
Dive Ball for Greninja
and Dusk Ball for Incineroar (Idk he's Dark type)
maybe a Heavy Ball for Incineroar, because he's tied with Charizard for the heaviest Pokémon rep in Smash. Also, a Luxury Ball would be better for Lucario imo, because it also helps with gaining friendship with a pokémon and looks cooler.
I like this idea! Especially Master Ball for Mewtwo since he is a legendary.
Maybe since Poke'mon Trainer uses all standard Poke'balls, Pikachu could use a Quick Ball instead? I've seen that bundled with toy versions of him before.
At the very least it would be cool if the Poke'Ball was simply random for each Poke'mon character at the start of a match.
Lucario and Mewtwo don't come out of Pokéballs
@@videogamesleague629 in the current version of the game they don't, but in this theoretical version of the game they would.
@@NightFreeze9128 oh, ok. I mean... It's a cool idea, but since Mewtwo and Lucario are treated like some sort of actual character (they both speak, even if Mewtwo only does in the Japanese version), I think it makes more sense for them to have a unique animation...
From Awakening onward, each soldier in Fire Emblem got their own little voice line celebrating a victory in combat. It would have been really cool if Robin, Chrom, and Corrin's victory animations featured those same lines. You could also add the sound of the FE experience bar in the background - THAT would be an awesome nod.

I feel like a big one was not remixing brawl themes, they started remixing n64 and melee themes since brawl but they still haven’ remixed any brawl themes?
Just there should also be the original song alongside obviously.
🎶all star rest area🎶
Brawls music is already good enough quality to use in a modern game
Remixing themes is a sin.
They remixed melee battlefield in brawl and put this remix in ultimate instead of the original
I said “also there should be the original song alongside”
Dr. Mario’s victory theme should be that of the Vs. Mode victory music from the original Dr. Mario on the NES (or Dr. Mario 64).
It's so sad he got lumped in with the other Mario victory themes, especially with how drastically different his series is! We need more Dr. Mario representation!
@@squiddy1132 I actually had a few ideas to me Dr. Mario stand out more not just as a character but for his series in general:
1.) Make him feel more like a doctor by incorporating more elements into his moveset like changing the animation of his Forward Smash to better mimic a Defibrillator, using his stethoscope for his pummel, almost like a palm thrust to the chest, and have him inspect a clipboard in the style of the original NES game for his up taunt.
2.) Give both Mario and Dr. Mario different moves and animations to differentiate their characteristics and playstyles. Doc's dash attack would stay the same but Mario's would change to resemble the dive move from Super Mario 64 (and a few other Mario games too), to showcase how each of their launch angles aren't the same. Doc's Down Smash could be an electric palm thrust similar to that of his Forward Smash but on both sides of him like Lucario's Down Smash, only that it would be slower than Mario's but safer on shield and packs more of a punch. His down throw would stay the same, but Mario's would change to be the Ground Pound similar to Luigi's down throw expect launching behind Mario instead of in front of him. Make the throwing animation of Doc's neutral special reflect how he tosses megavitamins in his games, which would also make it travel more distance than Mario's. Lastly, the Final Smash should reference a game of Dr. Mario by having the pill's rain down from the sky; for fun, the background of the Final Smash could have a checkered pattern referencing his game as well.
Those are my ideas at least.
Ike and Roy deserve unique victory themes based on their games just like the Awakening characters, Corrin, and Byleth. Ganondorf and Wolf could also do with personalized victory themes, and while I appreciate Bowser and Ridley at least getting their own remixes of the hero themes, they could’ve easily gotten the K. Rool / Sephiroth treatment of implementing their original villain music
@@KidAL0 What would you use for Ike and Roy?
@@ABAgamer_ I’m not very knowledgeable of their respective game OSTs - I know almost solely of the songs in Smash - so maybe there are tracks far better for it than my suggestions but off the top of my head I’d go for “Ike’s Theme” (pretty sure it’s originally called “Eternal Bond”) and “Winning Road (Roy’s Hope)”
For Pokemon Trainers second costume, it would've been neat to have a team full of shinys. Like the Boy trainer has regular and the Girl trainer has shinys
are you even playing the game
Missed Opportunity: Inklings should’ve gotten an extended victory theme, being the continuation of the Splatoon 1 victory theme, just like how Cloud has the full FFVII victory theme
inkling's victory theme is so underwhelming
Missed opportunity: the FFVII summoning animation should play whenever Cloud or Sephiroth uses an assist trophy
That's actually one of Cloud's taunts. The green glow when he puts his sword on his back. It would have been neat though.
That's the materia use animation. The summoning animation is the one used in midgar when you use a red materia orb.
@@Herobrine100x I don't know that game so I don't know u!
@Kurai Productions the materia orbs spinning around them instead of just holding up the assist trophy
Joshua Kent that wouldn't make sense as the energy effect is from using Materia specifically, it's not their innate power
I think it would be cool if Alph would have rock Pikmin instead of Purple Pikmin, since in Pikmin 3 you can't obtain Purple Pikmin (atleast in the main story). It would just be a new Skin and not change anything since Alph is only a costume and not an echo (for whatever reason).
yeah! I feel like louie would be a good olimar echo fighter, with an alt being brittany, purple and white pikmin being replaced with rock pikmin and bulbmin, and final smash being the titan dweevil. also purple pikmin should latch on like it does in the games
Getting rock Pikmin would push him over the edge into being an Echo. He's currents costume because he is 100% functionally identical to Olimar. Even as a reskin, I think the Rock Pikmin would be enough for that. But it's not like they had much of an actual reason for the number of playable characters from the beginning.
Missed opportunity: If Link used some other weapons for, say, his smash attacks. He's representing botw, and weapon switching sort of defined that game, so just having him pull out a spear for his f smash, or a club for his down smash, would be a super clever reference.
I feel like that's what was originally planned, since there was a rumor when Byleth released that another character was going to have his moveset, but they changed course when they were running short on time
Gruz Mother for smash
@@AshenDust_ That's the dream I have and know will never come true.

Missed opportunity:
Love for sonic in smash
Literally, his whole presence is a missed opportunity
Missed opportunity: Love for Min Min/Arms in general
lol
Missed opportunity: not having byleth in the game or having more characters of other franchises other than fire emblem or mario
One example of a sonic related missed opportunity is his victory theme. Smash uses the one from 06, which in that game, an acoustic version “His World” played on the results screen. They should have made this happen in Smash, like how cloud’s result screen music is different from the smash default.
Easily one of the biggest missed opportunities for me was giving Young Link a unique Final Smash. Even if it was functionally the same as Triforce Slash, it would have been awesome to see him wear the Fierce Deity mask and transform. But no, just the same-old same-old with no distinctions...
Honestly they could have kept the Triforce Slash Final Smash and simply given him the Fierce Diety transformation right when he does it.
If it helps, they do this in Hyrule Warriors, where the Fierce Deity is Young Link’s unique mechanic. He builds up a meter that, when used, allows him to put on the Fierce Deity mask for increased damage, and he uses it for his special and magic attacks

Oh my gosh, that would be perfect.
They referenced that in Charizard's trailer in Smash 4, which means that they definitely acknowledge it. Or maybe that trailer was what inspired all the artwork, idk. But yeah, that would be a really cool detail to add in future games

Missed Opportunity: When the match starts and someone is playing as steve, Instead of his mining entrance, have him just appear from thin air and in the bottom left it says "Steve joined the game."
And if he loses all his stocks in a free for all it can say Steve left the game
This makes me realized how much opportunities is there to add cool small feature in the game. Sadly Nintendo probably won't do any details fixing to Smash beside adding dlc and changing Cloud Omislash that one time
Or just keep his mining entrance while adding "Steve has joined the game"
When he dies it should say "Steve left the game". And when he respawns it will say he enteres the game again. It would also be cool if you could add your minecraft skin to replace over Steve but that will probably never happen.
I hate Steve's entrance so much. It could have been a Nether Portal, an ender pearl in, appearing with a notification that "Steve joined the game", landing with an elytra or a water bucket, or any other cool reference.

Here's a death message for Steve:
Steve died from a 0-to-death combo by a Luigi main.
Other than the ones that were shown in the video, here are some of my ideas:
"Steve discovered the floor was magma" (When dying to lava on Great Cave Offensive)
"Steve saw Mimikyu" (When dying to Mimikyu)
"Steve was squished too much" (When being crushed, such as on Midgar when the stage fuses back together)
"Steve fell out of the world" (When falling into the bottom blast zone)
Steve forgot how to fly (when he sd’s with his upb)
"Steve burned to death"
When He Dies To A Fire Based Move
(I'm Looking At You Pyra)
Steve tried to swim in lava
Great cave offensive 100 percent lava
Steve experienced kinetic energy
This could be used if he dies to the road/walls on Mute City, Port Town Aerodive, the Pirate Ship, and the Spirit Tracks stage
One missed opportunity I think would have been nice was having a color of the original 12 characters with their 64 look, since the 64 stages kept that same 64 style. This could possibly work with Melee characters and maybe even Brawl characters as well.
I wish Steve had his old hit sound when he gets hit, I guess they didn't add it cause Alex doesn't have a hurt sound besides the universal one.
Also the Zombie hurt sounds and Enderman hurt sounds would be cool too.
Maybe they could have given steve the classic hurt sound & alex the current hurt sound?
steve goes œuh
The Zombie and Endermen alts are supposed to be players using the Zombie and Enderman skins.
Even if they wanted to do that they probably couldn’t cause I think the old OOGH sound was a copyrighted sound Notch selected and didn’t have the permissions to use :/
I wished he turned red like he does in the actual game whenever he gets hit
When any pokemon character gets an effect that either increases or decreases any stat (Run speed, attack power etc.) The red or blue increasing or decreasing status effect from the pokemon games could play. The opposite however would be applied if a pokemon picks up a poison mushroom because it would play the red increasing effect for have more avasiveness similar to the move minimise from the pokemon series. (Opposite for mega mushroom)
Here's a neat idea. If the Minor Circuit theme (from punch out Wii) is playing in a 1 on 1 match, if you have the stock lead (or player 1 in the case of local play) The sound of getting your opponent knocked down will play, however, if your opponent (or player 2) is in the lead, the sound of little mac getting knocked down plays. Normal theme plays if Stocks are at an equilibrium.
Truly the most memorable moment in World of Light was when you could control Master Hand against a mob of fighters. A shame it isn't a regular mode like Mob Smash.

They would never do that because the Colonel's Japanese voice actor passed away, so the character was retired from the series out of respect to him.

Leet 1337 they could have still had Otacon, Mei Ling, Naomi, Miller, Liquid, Raiden, Meryl, DeepThroat, Natstasha do calls. Or reference Big Boss with Zero, Sigint, Eva, The Boss, Para-Medic, Huey, Ocelot, etc.
Snake's voice is still around so they could have recorded new lines
I’d like to see the characters completely gold, instead of clothes (expect for Yoshi, Kirby, etc, who don’t really have clothes). I like the idea of shining, also maybe a gold tint to the Player’s or CPU’s name tag.
The potion effect thing is actually a really neat idea. Really like that one.
Tho I do think you'd have to keep the extra stuff like the cloud with jokers Poison just so players can quickly tell if someone was hit it with it
Another thing I‘d love to see would be the two sheep in the background of the Minecraft stage having different colors like in the original game, where certain colors have different chances of spawning. I‘d imagine the possibilities would be carried over, meaning, for example, that when you enter the stage, there‘s a 0.164% chance for one of the sheep to be pink.
One idea when sonic is drowning you can hear the music of drowning from the sonic games!
At the very least, it should play the final sound effect if Sonic dies that way.
When the world neede-
You know what, that's overused. I'm just glad he's back again.

It's more overused to say something is overused.
Yes, that means I just used an overused term to say said overused term is overused and more overused than things that are considered overused, andnow I am overusing said overused te-
*That's enough.*
What if instead of having the wood change depending on the stage, each Steve alt had a different type of wood? 8 alts, 8 wood planks.
It would make sense if ender man had warped wood, however they didn’t include anything from the latest updates in Steve. That was partially because it wasn’t finished when steve was being brainstormed. This would make there only 6 types, which could still be possible if some of them shared
@@thetwizard9290 zombie should have warped and ender have crimson because gren and puple
@@da_xbox360 he’s saying endermen should have warped wood because they spawn frequently in warped forests in Minecraft
@@rileyguymon388 but still
gren and puple
Big brain move
Missed opportunity: Since Isabelle's final smash resembles the town's hall based on Animal crossing new leaf it would be cool if Tom Nook had his clothes from the same game
Missed opportunity: Link could go in to bullet time when he shoots with his bow inthe air. Or he could do a little flurry rush when doing a perfect dodge.
Both: everyone is always in real time.
That would make link a bit busted.
Basically getting free damage for dodging and messing up timing with bullet time
@@ender5358 Well yes, but we aren't making an actual character to smash. Just pointing out missed opportunities.
This isn't that related but when I first played Ultimate I totally thought that Link's final smash would be a flurry rush or his original triforce slash thing but instead of the triforce he would use stasis
A missed opportunity with Hero is that whenever he picks up something in dq 11, it plays a sound effect. I think it would be cool if it played that sound effect when he picks up an item
Then they'd have to do that for many characters
@@YounesLayachi like link
Steve could get the little pop. Also, it'd be hilarious if the links held their item over their head for a second (you could cancel it like incineroar poses)
Missed opportunity: At the end off luigis final smash he shoots whoever was sucked in it will release some ghosts from luigis mansion it wouldn't do any damage but it would be cool
Ps: sry im late
Missed opportunity: When Joker loses a stamina battle on Mementos a navigator’s (Morgana, Futaba, or Akechi) voice line should play and his death animation from Persona 5 should play.
And remove haru from appearing in mementos or jokers final smash. She cannot have anything close to screen time.
Basically the same thing I wanted with the links
On that note, why not have a Metal Gear Solid character shout, "Snake? SNAKE?! SNAAAKE?!" when he loses a stamina battle?
feathero3 they do that if he loses a stock in any battle during a codec call
His animation is just him falling to the floor and weakly raising a hand. That can't really play when he's been launched
WHY DOESN'T DAISY, SAY "HI IM DAISY" WHEN SHE ENTERS?!
SHE ISN'T THE REAL DAISY
That would be great
Because it’s annoying
@@flyingcats9931 I agree. Really freaking annoying
@@circuitbreaker_644 Agreed. It was REALLY bad in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.
12:07 And Gravel for some with grey floor!

To fix your problem of dropping items and other players picking it up, instead Steve could drop xp that would go away after like 2 seconds.
"A lot of Steve related ideas" "I promise that's all them"
Dammit
One of the things I think is a missed opportunity is that more stages don’t incorporate the gimmick that Boxing Ring has, where it changes it’s appearance of you hold L on the stage select screen. New Donk City could change from Day to Twilight like durning to New Donk City festival for example.
Dream Land GB actually USED to have that gimmick on 3DS but they got rid of it
maybe new donk city hall could switch to nighttime when jump up superstar is playing, kinda like how mementos switches colors based on music
For me the most missed oportunnity, was not having All-Star and Boss Rush...and Sonic as a whole its a missed oportunnity
Boss rush was one of my favorite modes In brawl, and I hate that all star now is just multi man smash but you fight every character
@@EllieMiller510
Im fine with the multi smash with every character, but I do wish they had the original version as well.
It’s a small thing but in Awakening when you cast magic there are these golden incantations that circle your character I’d have liked to see that with Robin since they gave Hero something similar referencing his games magic animations.
Edit:
Also after killing someone with his final smash pink flower petals could float down in reference to his class line's unique special Ignis.
This just might be me being a Panel de Pon fan, but when Kirby does his Stone transformation and if you decide to do nothing Kirby will just turn back on his own. Well what I would love to see is if Kirby transformation into Lip's garbage blocks it slowly turns into colored panels just like it does in Panel de Pon when you connect three or more panels of the same color touching the garbage block to make it disappear. It will act as a timer to show the player when Kirby's turning back on his own.
When Luigi kills Steve with his down taunt, the text box should say: "Steve was humiliated"
Then when steve kills luigi within a span of 15 seconds, it can say “steve got his revenge”
I got some ideas for missed opportunities for my favourite fighter: Inkling! Though Inkling already has details that reference Splatoon, there are some more that really aren't a big deal but would be cool to see.
1. The third alternate costume of Inkling (the yellow one) references the gear the player uses as Agent 3 from Splatoon 1, it would be cool if instead of keeping the normal weapons (Splattershot, Splat Roller, Inkbrush, Blaster and Slosher) Inkling also switched to the Hero variations (Hero Shot, Hero Roller, Herobrush, Hero Blaster and Hero Slosher). I understand if it didn't make sense to change all the weapons since Inkling in Smash mostly references Splatoon 1 and that game only had the Hero Shot, but hey, at least that weapon could be changed.
2. When you Super Jump in Splatoon a little marker appears on the ground showing where you're going to land. If the player lands directly on the stage and doesn't grab the ledge, a little and subtle marker would appear on the floor at the location of landing.
3. Similarly to the idea of messages displaying when Steve looses a stock and the effect Mega Man has when he also looses a stock, something like that could apply to Inkling. When you splat someone in Splatoon, a marker appears on the location where the opponent is splatted. This marker could appear on the blast zone if Inkling manages to KO an opponent, additionally a little text box could also appear maybe over Inkling's percentage saying "Splatted ! A similar message box could also appear when Inkling gets KOed saying "Splatted by "
What do you think? Just some ideas I came up with for Inkling, hope you all like them.
10:04 When he talked about the zombie that could drop rotten flesh and the enderman dropping the ender pearl why not have it a rare chance of the ender pearl dropping.
Like how rare they are in Minecraft?
Missed opportunity: Adding a stage where you can pick from any of the boss stage variants in WOL. The ones where it’s just an open field with no changes other than backgrounds
