Also it had best pokeball system where you can throw so many pokeballs and chaos just happens everywhere. Now it's like two pokeballs only with Brawl and Smash 4. At least, they allows three this time tho.

Missing opportunity to make fun of it's bitter flavors tho.
With the option to turn off individual items it's fairly easy to bring the item balance back to Melee levels so I would really say Melee was more balanced in that regard.
Only Smash for 3DS suffered in the items department cos you couldn't change the frequncy (one of the few things Smash for Wii U had over it).

Well to balance it out we can also have two assist trophies running around alongside them.
I just got done watching the DQV movie, and it'd be really cool if Five was an alt.
He's got a neat appearance, and actually uses Woosh to move through the air in the movie!

I've been watching lv. 9 CPU matches lately. It's such a great way to appreciate all of the nuances to the animation and design.
One character that continually impresses me is Bowser Jr (and the Koopalings). Sakurai packed the Clown Car with all kinds of weaponry — the drills, buzzsaw, fork, wrecking balls, boxing gloves, tongue, propeller, cannon, go-kart, mecha-koops, etc. They're the very embodiment of cartoon violence, lol.
But I was wondering: Does Junior and his ilk still have the two hit boxes, where they takes less damage if you hit the car vs. the pilot? Or was that never a thing in the first place? I seem to recall that being part of his design in Smash 4.

Yes and it was buffed in Ultimate
In Smash 4, when taking damage, the game would prioritize Bowser Jr's hurtbox over the Clown Car, so it made the armor useless against attacks with large hitboxes. In Ultimate, the Clown Car's hurtbox takes priority, so it's a lot more reliable as armor.
It could be related to the recent hot water situation companies like EA and Activision have gotten themselves into. Where putting that in may have kids think they have to buy it no matter what.
I could see them trying to avoid current/future legal issues.
Yes, Junior and the Clown Car still have separate hurtboxes.
Fun fact; the Duck Hunt dog and duck also have separate hurtboxes.
I don't see how it does it any more than having a DLC exclusive spirit board button with even shinier dlc board customzied to each one
or alerting you to every dlc character and costume hat comes out
or just seeing them online
Oh, "hurtbox." I like that, lol.
Any other changes to Bowser Jr from Smash 4 to Smash 5? Playable Koopalings in Smash was a dream-come-true for me, and ever since they were made playable in Smash and MK8 I've also liked Bowser Jr since I no longer begrudge him for taking their place, lol.
BTW, they're -totally- Bowser's kids -- I don't care what Miyamoto says. :-O
And Kazooie only has a hurtbox when running. Other than that she's basically treated like a sword
Kazooie is such a badass that her very existence is weaponized, lol
Note: This is all me speculating. I may/probably be wrong.
1) That's an area you can't access without the dlc vs having it appear in a single player/local mode
2) Notification vs In-game content
3) Players choosing to use the content vs game "shoving it in your face"
That's my guess as to what Nintendo is thinking.
Another use for the feathered freak,
makes good use of her pointy beak!
The bad guys know that it's no joke,
just press B to give 'em a poke!
I think they just want people without the DLC to not really have any content they can see but can't access
They even let non-DLC owners get the DLC Board spirits via the shop/random rewards from tournaments
The only content DLC players can see but can't actually obtain are the fighter spirits for the DLC characters. Those are just holes in the spirit list for them.

God, Smash Flash 2 Waluigi is really fun, and I hate that I enjoy playing as him. Getting cheap meteor smashes with up-air is the best.
Makes me excited to see their takes on other characters that won't be getting into an actual Smash installment anytime soon, like Kumatora and Andy.

Also it's undeniable proof that Madason can, in fact, use a sword.
Aren't the DQV and movie protagonists completely separate characters?
Nope, it's a retelling of the story of V.
He uses a sword 99% of the time in the movie. His staff is a blink and you miss it cameo.
I thought I read somewhere that the main character has a different name from the game and that he's just a VR avatar or something.
The "player" in the movie names the character and is them, well kinda I guess.
He's the protagonist of V, but in this particular version of V in the movie, whoever is playing it becomes him
His name is Luca in the movie, which I think is a semi-official name for the character at some point?
I think he's Abel in the game and Lucas in the Related Media
Maybe they should just add Madason as his own character.
Hey, if they stick with the cast from the movie and bothered dubbing him, it wouldn't be hard to get Yuri Lowenthal back in.

It's his name in a few places; like the audio drama and novelisation.
Abel - Japanese name
Madason - English name
Luca - Name in the novel, movie, and other places
All are the same character.

Well there is a major twist behind the movie but we could equip Madason with swords if we wanted to. His powerful weapon is Metal King Sword, iirc?
Yeah, the issue isn't that he can't use swords -- it's that his main promotional weapon is the staff, which he wields in all game-related appearances and merchandise.
I mean, he uses the staff in Hero's Final Smash; that's all I need to see. I really wouldn't have minded if they just gave him a sword though.
On a related note, if they actually went through with adding 8 Heroes, I wonder who the unlucky 3 (+ 4 female) heroes who missed out would've been.

Yeah, I know. It's just odd that they would had to forced to stick with canon weapon due to promotions and merchadises. I guess it was done in order to difference him from other main characters which mostly used swords.
Seven is far too short, Two can't use magic, so those two at least
Not sure on the last one to miss out would be. Nine I guess?
OP
OP
I think Nine is slightly taller than 7 but shorter than rest of them.
Nine is kinda the odd one out because he has a default appearance, but... not really and his default appearance has wings anyway which might not work. And he's slightly shorter, but not to the point where they couldn't fudge it
I don't really know anything about Six other than he's ripped as hell for a Dragon Quest Hero.
I'd say Ten on the basis that his game is Japan-only. But also for the fact that he's just a placeholder character for the player character like the Derplander in FFXIV.
Dragon Quest X is too good of a game to leave out (also VI sucks).
Anlucia would be a 10/10 addition and she's become the de facto main character of X to the point of becoming the main focus of promo material and crossovers (I would compare her as the Elma to Ten's Cross).
Also her official class is "Heroine" so the name isn't even an issue.
Can't ever imagine them using an MMO player character anyway honestly.
XIV WoL would be neat I guess if they opted to go for something akin to what's shown in the ShB intro, doubt they'd do it but it would be pretty sick looking atleast.

Inkling is one to talk lol
They were doomed to be a Mii costume in Smash 4
