Spencer's MansionWhat are some stages for characters you'd like to see as DLC?
Scuttle Town
N. Sanity Beach.
The Ark
Deepsea Metro
the Katamari - scrolling platform like Sunshine stage but just watch the size grow from being on the floor of a living room to being in space
GR in general would work so well for Smash. Its such a perfect fit.I cant think of any good Halo or DMC stages so ill post a Gravity Rush one instead
Jirga Para Lau from Gravity Rush 2
Basically anywhere would work though, Gravity Rush stages make themselves. Maybe the optimal solution would be to make it travelling.
The iDOLM@STER:
Concert stage:
This is the obvious location since this is where they perform. I'd love to see a gimmick where the audience cheer along with the music like this and glowsticks of the winning player's colour are waved in the foreground (much like Jedd indicates the winner in the Splatoon stage). Some probably wouldn't like it since it would be a walk off stage (exit stage right). I could see platforms come down from the ceiling or from the ground (heck, if they're trap doors, they could result in a hole in the ground) so it isn't just flat.Concert stage:
The 765 Pro Office:
This is basically the home location of the series. Even the anime ends the OP with this shot. Only problem is it would feel a bit like Onett 2.0 I fear. The interior would probably be a bit too cramped to make a location out of lol It's pretty much an office with dividers, desks and sofas.
Shame its such a pipedream though. Gravity Rush would be the first Sony IP I would add to Smash, even if its not the most "deserving".
Touhou's Hakurei Shrine. With changing seasons!
Samurai Shodown II's Northern Country.
Or the first Samurai Shodown's Kamui Kotan/Hokkaido.

With those examples, then Smash Wii U had its fair share still as well.
-Mushroom Kingdom U is just based on general NSMBU aesthetics rather than anything in particular
-Great Cave Offensive takes elements from the full map but it's no one location and no one gimmick
-Colosseum is just Some Arena and also it has mechanized platforms?
-Woolly World takes some cues from a few levels but on the whole its just Aesthetic: The Stage
-Palutena's Temple really doesn't line up 1:1 with Palutena's actual temple, even less so that GCO. It just takes the aesthetics of the temple & sky world as a whole and slaps a "dungeon" area. I'd put it in rough proximity to Temple or Brinstar
Gamer is...arguable. Like the gimmick and backdrop is absoluteley 1:1 but we're on a table hiding among toys. That seems about as vague as something like Arena Ferox or Magicant but I won't push it too hard.
But anyway they still took concepts & visual aesthetics and expanded them into an original stage that's far less 1:1. Like I look at Palutena's Temple and I don't get the same vibe as Garden of Hope.
Where do stages like Corneria & Pilotwings fall into this paradigm for people, actually? Because you ARE literally flying through those locations, but they're just the backdrops and you're not dropping into the stage like traveling....I guess this discussion is less binary and more a gradient
Coliseum and Wii Fit Studio are the same stage, with the direction the platforms come from reversed.
Wake up, people!

TIL that Ganon's boss fight arena in the singleplayer modes actually yanks assets from the Reset Bomb Forest stage
Naw. I don't really mind the waiting between the updates since I would able to focus on finish the backlog.
I think I'm almost done with Dragon Quest (again I think). I decided to take a looks at the arts. I was blown away with the fact that DQ1 MC is a blonde! I always thought he had black hairs.
I wouldn't say this is anything definitive. DQ 1 and 2 characters have had their hair color changed in the past (DQII hero has been depicted with dark, blue, and white hair). Though I would say almost all versions of the DQ1 hero with his helmet on has him with dark eyebrows.
Sakurai has often shown affinity for classic desings. Just look at Erdricks model in Smash. He has the bangs under his circlet, while many modern designs of Erdrick have the bangs omitted. Yet, Sakurai went with the classic boxart version with the bangs, so it makes sense that he went with an allusion to the DQ1 armor design.
I was wondering why did Ganon get its own stage based on his game while not all did but… Actually even his stage is clone lolTIL that Ganon's boss fight arena in the singleplayer modes actually yanks assets from the Reset Bomb Forest stage
Is the floor taken from somewhere too?
Erdrick is the only one with 5's cape style, so if they wanted an alt for 5, they were kind of limited to just Erdrick
That would be amazing. He walks in and out of doors, and in and out the background/foreground with the stairs. His theme plays anytime he shows up.
I wonder how many Solos we're going to see online
Probably not many compared to the other 3 alts, I assume
Even though DQ4 was my first Dragon Quest, I'm using Erdrick. I've been playing DQ3 over the last week and wandering around in circles while fighting enemies for an hour is oddly relaxing.

I'll probably use all of them to a certain extent but I'll definitely be mainlining the Guv.

Yeah, I definitely noticed those eyebrows since that's why I assumed that his hairs were black. I think him being blonde is kinda permanent thing now.
Yeah, Solo got DQ1 Hero alt so I guess it kinda made sense because he kinda have those horns (but it's more of dragon ears or whatever it is.) Maybe I will find out what it was when I play Dragon Quest 4 someday.

Yeah, I think Enix is being serious about them retconning Dragon Quest 1 Hero's hairs since he was a blonde in Dragon Quest Anniversary Collection; and like you said, Dragon Quest Battle Victory. Now Smash Bros have him as a blonde as well.
The screenshot I took from Smash Bros trailer (Final Smash obviously)
My god those Final Smash models look awful
They don't even pretend to match Ultimate's artstyle.

Erdrick's Descendant has been retconned to be blonde since the GBC days I believe. I don't mind it too much since that helps with differentiating him from Erdrick proper.
Nah, that design was junked in Smash bros so it basically no longer exists
OP
OP
I think they probably reused the assets from Battle Victory since most models really looks similar to their.
Someone literally pointed out he's still blonde above you.
Considering they had four different models to work on for playable purposes, I can't get too mad about this.

OP
Do anyone still have any access to the image map where people pointed out the Erdrick's Smash model were taken from both version of Erdrick?
OP
OP
Right. That's why I'm happy that they actually included them in final smash to make it even more exciting. And it's pretty cool that they are going to make the Hero exchangeable for any hero models in final smash.
What would Heroine's Final Smash be if they added her as an echo, with female Erdrick, Sofia, Female Nine and Female Ten(?) as alts? That's like... all the female playable characters in the series.
Female party members, I guess? Alena, Jessica and Jade come out and beat up some people?

If I pick Solo it'll be for the DQ1 color.
None of the color choices are tied to story relevance or anything, just certain design similarities. They all fit well enough, though Angelo is a fairly loose fit for the Luminary in terms of color distribution.
If they had added an heroine skin you'd presumably just get the other ones there too for the Final Smash animation for both male and female characters, rather than it being gender based.
Huh? In his moveset code there are references to SimonWhip, and like other clones Richter has FIGHTER_SIMON status code.
A Monster Hunter stage with some platforms on wooden pillars overlooking a grass field in the back where random turf wars between flagship monsters happen that can shake the stage and knock down some of the platforms until the palico rebuild them.
And Konchu as enemies that ruin the whole stage in that special Yellow Devil/Other M Ridley kind of way.
Dracula's Castle 2.0 with constant Medusa heads flying across the screen.
I'm glad they've toned down the stage hazards from base game 4 stages. 4's DLC stages and Ultimate's stages thus far are a big step up. Like I think of the Ultimate stages thus far Moray Towers is the only one I flat out dislike to play on, and that's due to the unorthodox platform layout.
"Because of its unique place in Nintendo history, Monster Hunter Tri holds a special place in our hearts. So, periodically the stage will flood and the characters will move very slowly and lose access to half of their moves."
It's still so frustrating that hazardless Wily's Castle loses the platforms. They couldn't have thought a little bit why people wanted to turn off hazards instead of just opting for Omega mode?
I gotta say I'm much warmer on Byleth then when we first knew about them.
Whip sword and female alt? Sounds good.
They don't even need blue hair.
For Byleth's Divine Pulse, rewinding time, imagine being knocked way off stage -- too far to recover with jumps -- but you have the ability to rewind time, just for your character, which plays out an animation where you fly back onto stage in reverse, lol.
It could be a Down Special or something, but there could be limits on how it's used, for the sake of balance.
That, plus a sword that shape-shifts between a blade and a whip, would make for a well-justified eighth addition to the FE reps.
Put Byleth in an all-first-party Fighters Pass - Season 2 that also includes Spring Man (upgraded from AT), Pearl & Marina, Rex & Pyra, etc.

Yeah, the Wii era featured a bunch of fresh redesigns for the Erdrick trilogy. You're not wrong, DQ1 Erdrick looked like this (SNES remake)
And Gwaelin was straight up Toriyama Daisy:
Yeah I said this several times in previous threads. Crazy! Maybe because 5 is popular so they wanted to include him somehow?
Anyway, this made me realize just how on the ball that original 2ch leak was. It said we were getting Erdrick with 3 alts, Luminary, Female Erdrick, and Anlucia each sporting an alternate color. It ended up being half right. Seems totally plausible that might've been the original plan.
must be pretty hard to do when you keep leaning away from your hands before striking forward
