Things YOU hate in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Daisy not having "Hi Im Daisy!" as a taunt is criminal

Fun fact! While Dedede’s hammer is the same for all alts, the files are actually copy-pasted 8 times in the files- they’re not shared between alts, so it would literally just be as simple for the dev team as grayscaling a few textures and being done

I love Olimar's deep voice yet I never realized until now that he hasn't been talking. Which is pretty crazy.

Fun Fact:, Charizard's Shiny in Gen 2 was actually purple but in Gen 3 they changed it to black because Charizadd does not get enough attention so technically speaking Charizard does actually have a Shiny Alt.

What’s weird is that Charizard used to have a purple shiny, which IS actually a costume in smash, but it’s new black one isn’t

7:52 The worst part about the replay feature is that every time you save it will be deleted after a new update comes around.

Honestly, Isabelle is pretty substantially different from villager. While some moves are shared, there’s a lot of different moves that completely change how they play.

The fact that the Mii characters aren't in the Random rotation is kind of a missed opportunity. I forget that the Miis are there most of the time, so having the Random option select one of your Miis would have been a nice touch.

I think Ken is classified as an echo because in a sense, he's the "original" echo of fighting games as a whole. So his echo status is more symbolic than anything else

I honestly think Ken was classified as an echo fighter solely to have the only two SF characters next to each other, instead of having several characters between them

I don't think echoes were named that way due to any game design reasons, but for development reasons. Sakurai originally described them as being built from another character, and I think he meant it literally. Ken might play very differently to Ryu, but you can still clearly see the Ryu skeleton underneath him, and Isabelle's model is very different from villager's to be a direct port. The only hole in this mindset is Dr. Mario though, I really have no idea what they were thinking with that. Guess that's why they gave him so many new animations in Ultimate.

"Echo characters" is a neat concept IMO, but they should have some actual noticeable differences, otherwise they are basically alternate skins. If Daisy and Dark Samus count as "echo characters" then Alf may as well have been one as well. Like you said, Chrom and Lucina are great examples of well done echo characters. They could have done something similar with Simon and Richter with one of them getting a sweet spot on the ball of their chain and the other having consistent damage. Samus/Dark Samus could have been differentiated with one of them having slower but more powerful moves and projectiles (same goes for Pit/Dark Pit). I think with Daisy, it would have been neat to see her with a higher risk/reward kit, like give her a higher chance of pulling bombs/stitches but with a slight chance of an empty pull that gives her nothing, or give her more powerful kill moves but with longer end lag.

I genuinely hope Sonic gets a complete rework in the next game. Along with a roster rework. Since Ultimates roster is really just a one time thing. He reasonably should be in the next game since Mario vs Sonic is so timeless.

16:40 he actually doesn't just make you loose a life, he makes you game over

Removing Daisy's float but making her substantially faster on the ground would be a simple but great change honestly. Maybe even give her old Peach moves like her Melee Up-tilt or Up-air, and perhaps changing her turnips to match her new attributes?

To add onto the whole "Sakurai is biased towards the Kirby games he made" thing, it's also worth noting that he also didn't work on the Nightmare trilogy of games (Dreamland 2/3 and 64) and those games are also barely represented besides a couple of songs.

Was not expecting Olimar to have such a deep voice

14:55 Honestly, Dark Samus’s smash attacks not being the same as her assist trophy attacks from SSB4 is kind of a missed opportunity. I mean, they basically come out like smash attacks if you think about it, and it would help differentiate her from regular Samus a bit more.

Olimar’s antenna has a bright light to determine which Pikmin he has out mainly and this isn’t in ANY Smash game he appears in.

Hearing you prefer the aesthetic of Smash 4 over Ultimate is nice. As much as I do like how Ultimate looks, the use of color is significantly better in Wii U in my opinion. I also think that character representation (particularly for third parties) was more balanced in Smash 4. These are two things that help keep SSB4 as my favorite Smash game.
