    Adding bomberman without the amazingly cool bombs he gets in Second Attack is a missed opportunity, definitely the coolest thing to come from the Bomberman franchise with the possible exception of the soundtrack for Hero. In this timeline, I'd hope Viewtiful Joe could make it in too. Then maybe I'll vacation to this timeline sometime.

    So, if you're willing to do a brawl video, is there any chance you're ever going to cover the other Non-HAL smash games? Personally, something like if Smash 4 never came to the 3DS interests me, if they never had to put the resources into that version and had the manpower of both games' dev teams, as well as not needing to account for the 3DS' limitations, how would the game have turned out? That's always something I've thought about.

    Toon Link being a fan favorite when 2 other Links existing
    Blazekin being in the game when there is another fully evolved fire starter right next to it.
    Palutena has a moveset, who unlike Pit wasn't playable and didn't have much to work with.

      1 - Nintendo would realistic want to promote wind waker, Sakurai likes to add clone characters to make the roster bigger, Toon Link is a safe pick for both sides.
      2 - I don't think Nintendo characters about which type of Pokémon they add in the game, if they did, we would had Decidueye instead of Incineroar in Ultimate (also a Ghost type, because it's baffled that till this day Smash never had a Ghost type Pokémon).
      3 - I agree with Palutena, but Sakurai could make something for her if he want to, but the chances of the moveset being the exact same of Smash 4/Ultimate are kinda low.
      4 - It depends on the development time, if it has enough time to develop both, i think they would add both, but yeah, adding 3 Castlevania characters could be a stretch, but if they had extra time, sure.
      5 - Snake is also from an M Rated game, so, i don't see the problem with Sub-Zero, unless you mean something else?
      6 - It was said on an interview that the issue with Sora getting in Smash was not Disney, but Square, there's also the fact that Sora is a character that need both companies to agree on everything for the character to be added, which must be awful, it's not too unrealistic for Sora to get in, i think the bigger problem is to have both Sora and Hero/Erdrick at once, 2 Square characters with Square being so problematic to work with might be a stretch.

REASONS, weren't as spread out and as big as it is nowadays because of only few people having acess to internet, 2006 was a whole other world pretty much), and Nintendo would more likely choose him over everyone else, i think even Sakurai would, it's just the more likely outcome, it sucks, but it is what it is, although i don't think Blaziken is a bad inclusion overall, there's just better options.

    Consequences of the blessed timeline from the previous video (What if Melee was the first Smash game?)
    * Microsoft's buyout of Rareware is butterflied away, as Banjo's appearance in Smash Deluxe implies that either Microsoft's offer fell through, Activision made a better offer, or Nintendo outright bought out Rare. As a result of this, Diddy Kong Pilot and Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge are released on the GBA as first-party titles (alongside Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Kameo and Viva Pinata onto the GC and Wii, if they aren't butterflied away), Donkey Kong Racing gets finished and released on the GC (butterflying away Donkey Kong Barrel Blast), and Banjo-Threeie is a more traditional platformer, as Nintendo convinces Rare that the ideas for Nuts and Bolts are too divergent of the traditional BK formula. (Nuts and Bolts' engine and mechanics get used for an original property that doesn't exist in our timeline)
    * Square and Enix's merger still happens as in IOT (since FF: The Spirits Within still likely happened), but Squeenix's relationship with Nintendo is improved with Cloud's appearance in SSB, with the ports of FF1 through FF6 on the GBA happening earlier than IOT, as well as graphically enhanced ports of FF7, FF8 and FF9 on the GC with post-game bonus dungeons and bosses and maybe versions of FFX and X-2, FFXI (compatible with the GC broadband adapter), Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 (based on the Final Mix versions) and Dragon Quest 8. (DQ4, 5, 6 and 7 get remakes on the GBA and DS). Geno's inclusion
    * Ryu and Ken's appearance in Smash Deluxe likely build up interest for SFIV, which gets released around the same time as IOT, and gets a slightly downgraded port to the Wii.
    * Metal Gear Solid is ported to the GameCube, and is much more of a straight port than The Twin Snakes, and is followed by a port of MGS2. (which contains a bonus campaign focusing on Snake's perspective that is later included in the Greatest Hits rerelease on the PS2) MGS3 gets a port on the Wii as well.
    * Mother 3 is finished earlier for the N64, as HAL had more time to work on it with Smash 64 being butterflied away. Unlike IOT, it does get an international release as EarthBound 64, due to the drought of JRPGs on the system and is somewhat darker than our timeline's version of the game. Mother 1+2 on the GBA also gets an international release, and has a slightly updated translation for both games, for consistency with both EarthBound and EarthBound 64.
    * As a result of these butterflies, the Nintendo GameCube is more successful than IOT (though still not even coming near the PS2, saleswise), with Nintendo's kiddy image being further shattered and their image of being hard to work with being shattered, with many PS2 or Xbox exclusive games IOT getting GameCube ports. Microsoft's Xbox, while still successful thanks to the popularity of Halo, has to settle for third place.

    Some of the characters here wouldve been cut or replaced, like young link being replaced for toon link, and pichu being replaced for plusle and minun who were a part of the forbidden seven.
    Speaking of the forbidden seven, i could see dixie kong being added as a semi clone of diddy, just like how toon link and wolf were last minute smei clone additions
    And now that wolf was already added in the last game, maybe they could put krystal in this one, since in our timeline she actually was considered but decided against as it was easier to add wolf as a semi clone with the time they had.
    Now that this is the second game and im assuming this is after the first game was a massive success in the blessed timeline, square would probably be fine with cloud joining the roster
    Sub Zero is too much of a pipe dream pick even for this timeline
    I dont see toon link being a highly rquested zelda newcomer when midna, skull kid, impa and even tingle are probably the ones u hear most often when it comes to zelda newcomers in our timeline
    No lynn is kinda odd since she's a fan favourite
    I dont see black shadow being highly requested, he would probably be a toon link or wolf situation where its a bonus semi clone character added late into development. The only reason ppl ask for him in our timeline is so ganondorf can get a new moveset with black shadow using his current moveset but with the brawl/sm4sh smash attacks instead of the sword
    isaac i can see being added in, as well as andy or sami from advance wars
    I wouldve added classic megaman over X

    A blessed timeline Brawl that played like Melee would require Sakurai not being involved or him going back on his stance on Melee being too competitive. Again I have to dunk on Sakurai here, don’t hate him but he made excuses for excluding Ridley. Lastly, Banjo arguably doesn’t belong because his latest game back then (geez it’s still his latest game) soured fans on the franchise. If he was put in I think he’d have his Nuts & Bolts appearance because Rare actually preferred it, I imagine you threw him in there because the mod was available.

    • @davidvkimball
      @davidvkimball  Год назад +1

      First of all, this isn't true! Sakurai only changed his stance on advanced mechanics in fighting games after 2004 or so when he left HAL, so if he were to start a sequel immediately after Melee's release, it would have likely adhered to the same rules of his previous title(s).
      Also, Nuts and Bolts came out in 2007, well after Wii's launch in 2006. In this universe, the pair would be returning fighters, so they'd have their appearance as you see in this video.
      Lastly though, like I say in the video, this is all just for fun anyway.

The first 3 games are either the exception or it’s vague which character it is.
      In the original Smash it’s probably Jigglypuff, it gives off the most joke character vibes of the cast. In Melee it might be Pichu for similar reasons. In Brawl there is none or it’s Sonic since he was very unexpected, Sonic was still partially perceived as Nintendo’s biggest rival. SSBWU’s is obvious, it’s Wii Fit Trainer.
