Sakurai also said that Bayonetta and Palutena could've easily survived Galeem but their movesets were too hard for a beginner Also, Bayonetta surviving also would've been controversial considering how broken she was in smash 4 and effectively killed the game and its meta. Who had the insane idea of adding a zero to death ladder combo that kills at 20%??? She was a league of her own, possibly even better than Smash Melee Fox She was frankly, too lore accurate to her actual games. Bro kills angels on a daily basis and killed God twice. And now we have a multiverse villain in the 3rd game and she STILL manages to defeat them (at the cost of her life i guess) Kirby also dies to falling apples in the game lmao, but aside from that, he and Bayonetta could probably solo the entirety of the roster
@@oreochicken4218 I heard it also wouldn’t make sense for Bayo or Palutena to have escaped cause there are spirits of characters that reside within the areas the two would’ve teleported/escaped to (meaning Galeem’s light reached these areas if it managed to make those residents as spirits so why would Bayo and Palutena not be affected), Kirby worked cause the warp star quite literally took Kirby out of reality (he essentially didn’t exist for the moment) which worked well both narratively and also gameplay-wise (good beginner character) hence why he was the chosen character
@@Charlie-hu9jq the light engulfing the universe happened a LONG while after the beams went out. if he had pikachu in his arms, he probably would've been outta there. i honestly believe that even if he couldn't time travel (Sonic CD, the signposts are gameplay mechanics and have nothing to do with it) or open a portal (Sonic Rush via Special Gimmicks) with his speed, he would have seen kirby also surving and parkoured/ramped up to him.
Actually she was gonna use her Up Smash to survive, in Smash 4 her Up Smash (If released at the right timing) gives in invincibility for as long as the up-smash it active
Late comment but it is canon lore that 3 gods protect link and if you look at the cutscene again he tanks 3 hits before he gets dusted. Another ex is when palutena gets hit then pit and pittwo loses power because palutena is the one that gave them power. Thats what makes ssb beyond great even the little details are put into consideration.
Triforce of Courage baby. I know it's the Hero of the Wild Link, who doesn't wield any of the triforce, but the 3 goddesses of Hyrule still protect and guide the Hero of the Wild iteration
Well i mean, who else? He literally has a warp star, the only other survivor could be snake because it would be funny if his box disguise actually worked
It’s even something you are taught to do at times in Splatoon story modes of staying in your ink so that you duck under objects or enemy fire, unfortunately Galeem aimed at the ground
9:23 that is one of the creepiest bad endings to a game. Seeing Mario collapse was terrifying as it wasn’t played for laughs. It doesn’t help that the scene with Dharkon looking at the screen intently has many unfortunate implications. It almost feels like Dharkon himself is taunting the player, telling them that they have failed to stop him. A really chilling example of how scary bad endings can truly be.
Isn't that what happened since Smash Bros 64 two hands messing with figurines, they used their imagination and thus a legendary series was born. Master Hand symbolises Creation Crazy Hand symbolises Destruction
I can’t believe that everyone could not escape from the light but Kirby flew on his star to space and survived and came back to save everyone from the Light.

3:04 oh my Hylia, the hylian shield was able to block this thing, not even Palutena could, and Link also has the mirror shield which is even stronger and can repel atacks
i was pretty disappointed that there was no voice acting in any cutscenes besides the opening. it makes the characters feel so much more empty without the voices, that was one of my biggest issues w subspace emissary (although it was a much bigger problem in that for a couple orf reasons). even just having mario grunt when he falls to his knees would've made him feel a little more alive
Yeah the Final Battle kinda made up for it though, the campaign is long like 20 hours total, I like Subspace as much as the next guy but the Great Maze is literally padding.

The fact that Link could not only block the light with the hyrulian shield, but cut straight through it is extremely impressive and shows how powerful Link actually is
you know, I wondered how non fighting type of characters would act in a story mode. Now I see, Villager is panicking, Duck Hunt is scared, and Wii Fit Trainer continues getting fit.
Father Balder really should have been a boss in this game along with Doctor Eggman, missed opportunity Nintendo, Galleom was the only rehash and Giga Bowser, only Galleom should have been replaced, Metal Gear Rex should have been the boss instead.
@@Dusk_Mightyena it's the only way Sonic could've died with all the other characters. Otherwise, he will just outrun it and you'll have to show his death when the universe gets destroyed. [it also fits his character to save helpless tiny animals in need because that's what he does in the classic games]
He tried to save Pika. It's understandable that Pika can run that fast (agility, quick attack, double team, the speed stat in Pokemon) but Sonic was definitely running slow to save him
Holy hell why haven’t sonic and Pokémon had a crossover of any kind whatsoever? Sonic and Pikachu make just as good of a team as Mario and Sonic maybe give them an anime
3 actually. A nod to how the Hero of the Wild Link (botw version) doesn't wield any of the triforce like the past Links, but he's protected by the 3 goddesses of the triforce. Hence why he took 3 on the shield before going down
Just for the hell of it, here's how I think the rest of the base game fighters (non-DLC) were obliterated in the intro: -Mario, Yoshi, Peach: Mario hops on Yoshi and they speed off. On the way, Mario grabs a startled, frozen Peach by the hand and pulls her onto Yoshi before the light decimates all three. -Donkey Kong, Little Mac, Incineroar: DK roars and pounds his chest while Little Mac, in a fighter's stance, shields his face with his gloves and throws a punch. Incineraor leaps into the air above them, roaring and attempting to claw at the light before they're all hit by a beam each. -Dark Samus, Mega Man: Both fight different beams of light next to each other, shooting at the rays with their respective guns before they're defeated. -Fox, Wolf: Both pilots hop into their individual arwings. In flight, Wolf abruptly cuts off Fox, causing a beam of light to vaporize Fox from behind. Wolf looks back and attempts to speed up, but is ambushed by another beam from the side. -Luigi, Daisy: Luigi cowers and trembles in fear with his head in his hands, while Daisy next to him summons Toad in front of her. A light attack hits them each. -Ness, Lucas, Pichu: All three simultaneously launch themselves upward in an electric flash; the PSI boys utilizing PK Thunder and Pichu performing Agility. Three different beams of light catch each one. -Jigglypuff, Olimar: Jigglypuff balloons up and floats away into the sky. Olimar runs away with a horde of Pikmin following him until a group of them grab ahold of Olimar and propel him upward. Olimar grips onto a chain of Pikmin dangling beneath him as he catches up to Jigglypuff until both are hit by a light attack. Each of the Pikmin's ghosts can be seen floating away after they're destroyed. -Ice Climbers: The duo utilize Belay; as Nana is launched into the air, she is suddenly hit by a light beam and vaporized. With the tether that connected them now detached, Popo screams and claws wildly at the air in a panic as he falls, before being struck himself. -Marth, Lucina, Roy, Chrom, Ike: All five are lined up in a row and draw their blades simultaneously, ready to face the light together. They proceed to dash forward valiantly, each slashing a beam of light until they're eradicated one-by-one. -Young Link, Toon Link, Robin: Young Link draws his bow and arrow and aims at the light while his fairy companion flies wildly around him, while Toon Link next to him unleashes his boomerang. Robin nearby sends out a Thoron attack. As soon as all three projectiles are released, a beam of light rushes forth and evaporates them all. -Ganondorf & Corrin: Ganondorf transforms into his Demon King form and Corrin transforms into his dragon form, both emitting a massive roar, but are eliminated before they can attack. -Mr. Game & Watch, King K. Rool, Isabelle: Isabelle runs in circles in a panicked frenzy while Mr. G&W jumps erratically side-to-side next to her. K. Rool nearby attempts to escape on his propellerpack. A beam of light catches all three. -Meta Knight, Ridley: Ridley roars and flies around, dodging several light attacks and expelling plasma from his mouth, while Meta Knight similarly swirls around him in the air, slashing at the light with his sword. A light beam hits them each. -Wario, Pac-Man: Wario attempts to ride away on his motorcycle. Pac-Man reverts to his classic form and races off, trailing closely behind Wario, before a beam of light hits them both. -King Dedede: Dedede is quickly whisked away on a palanquin carried by several Waddle Dees before the light catches him. -R.O.B., Bowser Jr.: Both launch themselves into the air, with R.O.B. using Robo Burner and Jr. in the Junior Clown Car. Each are hit with a beam of light. -Shulk: Shulk activates the Speed Monado Art and runs off, narrowly dodging light attacks using his foresight. He miscalculates the next light attack, however, causing him to stumble, and a second beam of light pierces through him. -Ryu, Ken: The street fighters are back-to-back, both in a fighter's stance and each facing an approaching beam of light head-on. They throw a punch and a kick respectively until the two beams meet in the middle, vanishing them both. -Cloud: Cloud pauses to focus on charging his Limit Gauge, then screams and unleashes a massive energy beam from the Buster Sword at an oncoming light attack. The light vaporizes the beam and overwhelms Cloud. -Simon & Richter: Both fighters battle side-by-side, with Simon wielding his whip and Richter flinging a silver cross until both are subdued.
I like how sonic was one of a few fighters that could have actually avoided the light or whatever it's called but only got caught trying to help someone else
I'll never forget the moment when Nintendo pulled an infinity war. First it was our favorite Marvel characters, and now our favorite childhood Nintendo characters as well. 😭
Those CGI cutscenes are awesome! If there would be more of them... My heart has been broken when I saw Sonic and Rosalina being caught, especially knowing how kind they are and that they will be free only after a long moment... And those cutscenes where everyone dies are just sad and appalling...😢
Wanna hear my theory on Hero's trailer? It takes place in the ending where Dharkon wins and instead of everyone dying a few survived. Link and the Heros where some of them. So Link is fighting his possessed friends until Hero saves him.
@@wayverleesoulsong it's just gets better! The Sepheroth trailer could be in Galeam's ending! It's actually more likely since in his ending he doesn't need to absorb Master Hands to send the wave of light and that heppens in Seperoth's trailer
I’m an ice climbers main so I have bias toward them but in the Galeem cutscene in world of light if ice climbers were there, I have 2 ideas 1. They see light coming toward them, and popo throws nana up using up b (belay). Then popo gets struck by the light, nana screams, and then the light hits nana. 2. Again popo uses belay and gets struck, but instead nana disappears because in the game if popo dies, nana just vanishes
A thing that gets me a little unsatisfied is not being able to see the characters after we get the true ending, instead we got to see sprits just forming something, I just want to see them all celebrate.
tbf it IS called "the WARP star". Nobody else could've survived. Palutena and Bayonetta couldn't because heaven and hell are in the same universe. Super Sonic couldn't survive either because it's never shown to warp Sonic to other dimensions in the games. Sure the chaos emeralds can warp you back in time as shown in Sonic 06 but Sonic still would not have survived even if he went back in time. Link can't just travel to the dimension of the goddesses, he needs their premission.
@Chuck [The Yellow Angry Bird] also Sonic couldn't really go to space to save himself as the plant was covered in the light. And the light killed the triforce goddesses (hence why the Hylian shield took 3 hits, because the triforce goddesses protects this version of Link, the Hero of the Wild), so Link couldn't do that even if he wanted to. He could've done it before the light, but that isn't really fitting for the Hero Link is
Yep. Me too. I was hoping Kirby wouldn't be the ONLY one who survived(maybe he could've grabbed a friend or two while he was riding his star like in Brawl), but at least SOMEONE survived the ordeal. Imagine if EVERYONE was consumed by Galeem. Then all would have been lost.
Honestly, I get why some people were disappointed at WoL when compared to Subspace Emmisary, but the way I see it, it was either this or nothing. It's already a huge task to even bring all these characters together in a single game, I can't even imagine the contract hell it would be to write a more extense story with all of them. Smash has deals with many different gaming companies, and all of them could be picky about many things that could difficult the development
You know it’s fun jumping from one hyperfixation to another when you notice the main character of your current hyperfixation standing in the crowd Tldr: Me going crazy when I noticed tiny Sonic in the bottom right corner standing next to Inkling
Once the two evil spirits are defeated all the fighters cheered for Kirby and went to peaches castle to celebrate and the spirits who died form Galeem and Dharkon long ago go to heaven
@@RoachCatJr no where. But the circumstances are the same as if we were to be nuked. No matter how hard we try to escape, we will all get caught in the catastrophy.
Chaos X ur right lol. kinda existentially depressing when i think bout it. everything i've done, or other people have done, could jus be erased in a matter of minutes
The Light beams to Sonic, Pikachu, Captain Falcon, and Falco: WHERE YOU GOING? The 4 fighters trying to escape: Uhhh, to get the milk? The beams: I DON'T THINK SO!
Pit and Pittoo canonically only have their powers because of Palutena. The 3DS game was actually headed by Sakurai, who headed this Smash Bros too and created Kirby, so he knew exactly what he was doing
I know Kirby is the creator's favorite, but canonically it makes sense for him too. He knows how to hyper warp and dimension jump. It DID actually fit him.
Bayonetta and Palutena also but said: "They are too hard to begginers", it would be cool to start with the 3, being Bayonetta the one that represent the darkness, Palutena the light and Kirby the balance
Sonic and Kirby would be my bet for the strongest heros. But for the strongest character in the game? It's a tie between those 2 and Sephiroth no doubt lol
I mean he technically is Kirby Sonic Mario and Luigi Sora, cloud and sephiroth and Bayonetta Lore wise those guys are probably the most powerful characters in my opinion

Also, Galeem and Tabuu share many similarities such as being associated with light and having the goal of rewriting the world in their image.

So the point of smash 4 was they were getting more fighters because they were preparing for this. This is a better explanation for echo fighters
I would agree, ties into Tabuu's chain of light
Also it would make sense if Tabbu was galeems "enmisary". Kinda like a silver surfer/Galactus thing
That’s a neat theory
tabuu was the subspace emissary all along
imagine if world of light was like brawl, that would’ve been amazing
Brawl's PVE is legendary
If only 😔
Or smash run
The fact that Link could not only block the light with the hyrulian shield, but cut straight through it is extremely impressive and shows how powerful Link actually is
It wasn't Link actually, it was the 3 Godness of Hyrule that protect him, if you watch the cutscene he parry/block only 3 times

8:38 I just love this scene
you know, I wondered how non fighting type of characters would act in a story mode. Now I see, Villager is panicking, Duck Hunt is scared, and Wii Fit Trainer continues getting fit.
Meanwhile the side characters are confused and just get vaporized

3:14 damn bayonetta got really nerfed
Father Balder really should have been a boss in this game along with Doctor Eggman, missed opportunity Nintendo, Galleom was the only rehash and Giga Bowser, only Galleom should have been replaced, Metal Gear Rex should have been the boss instead.

Zelda and Pit: *Lip-sync to english pretty darn well*

3:11 are we going to ignore the fact that pikachu can almost run as fast as sonic
Actually Sonic just slowed down to save Pikachu
@@Dusk_Mightyena it's the only way Sonic could've died with all the other characters. Otherwise, he will just outrun it and you'll have to show his death when the universe gets destroyed. [it also fits his character to save helpless tiny animals in need because that's what he does in the classic games]
Yeah
He tried to save Pika. It's understandable that Pika can run that fast (agility, quick attack, double team, the speed stat in Pokemon) but Sonic was definitely running slow to save him
Holy hell why haven’t sonic and Pokémon had a crossover of any kind whatsoever? Sonic and Pikachu make just as good of a team as Mario and Sonic maybe give them an anime
3:12
the fact that sonic tried to help pikachu...
4:41 I love this voice
I never noticed that voice until I read this comment.
Can we talk about how Link deflected one of those MFs before it took him?
3 actually. A nod to how the Hero of the Wild Link (botw version) doesn't wield any of the triforce like the past Links, but he's protected by the 3 goddesses of the triforce. Hence why he took 3 on the shield before going down
@@Take_this_pleasedamn, not even the 3 golden goddesses couldn't protect link from galeem
If Kirby survived
*its a Kirby game again*
I wasn’t expecting that but I’m not surprised
I can imagine minecraft steve surviving with Kirby just by switching to creative mode
Plot Twist: Galeem was a mod that Steve downloaded in Smash
Galeem it's just a boss version of /kill@everyone
Lol
XDDD
Just for the hell of it, here's how I think the rest of the base game fighters (non-DLC) were obliterated in the intro:
-Mario, Yoshi, Peach: Mario hops on Yoshi and they speed off. On the way, Mario grabs a startled, frozen Peach by the hand and pulls her onto Yoshi before the light decimates all three.
-Donkey Kong, Little Mac, Incineroar: DK roars and pounds his chest while Little Mac, in a fighter's stance, shields his face with his gloves and throws a punch. Incineraor leaps into the air above them, roaring and attempting to claw at the light before they're all hit by a beam each.
-Dark Samus, Mega Man: Both fight different beams of light next to each other, shooting at the rays with their respective guns before they're defeated.
-Fox, Wolf: Both pilots hop into their individual arwings. In flight, Wolf abruptly cuts off Fox, causing a beam of light to vaporize Fox from behind. Wolf looks back and attempts to speed up, but is ambushed by another beam from the side.
-Luigi, Daisy: Luigi cowers and trembles in fear with his head in his hands, while Daisy next to him summons Toad in front of her. A light attack hits them each.
-Ness, Lucas, Pichu: All three simultaneously launch themselves upward in an electric flash; the PSI boys utilizing PK Thunder and Pichu performing Agility. Three different beams of light catch each one.
-Jigglypuff, Olimar: Jigglypuff balloons up and floats away into the sky. Olimar runs away with a horde of Pikmin following him until a group of them grab ahold of Olimar and propel him upward. Olimar grips onto a chain of Pikmin dangling beneath him as he catches up to Jigglypuff until both are hit by a light attack. Each of the Pikmin's ghosts can be seen floating away after they're destroyed.
-Ice Climbers: The duo utilize Belay; as Nana is launched into the air, she is suddenly hit by a light beam and vaporized. With the tether that connected them now detached, Popo screams and claws wildly at the air in a panic as he falls, before being struck himself.
-Marth, Lucina, Roy, Chrom, Ike: All five are lined up in a row and draw their blades simultaneously, ready to face the light together. They proceed to dash forward valiantly, each slashing a beam of light until they're eradicated one-by-one.
-Young Link, Toon Link, Robin: Young Link draws his bow and arrow and aims at the light while his fairy companion flies wildly around him, while Toon Link next to him unleashes his boomerang. Robin nearby sends out a Thoron attack. As soon as all three projectiles are released, a beam of light rushes forth and evaporates them all.
-Ganondorf & Corrin: Ganondorf transforms into his Demon King form and Corrin transforms into his dragon form, both emitting a massive roar, but are eliminated before they can attack.
-Mr. Game & Watch, King K. Rool, Isabelle: Isabelle runs in circles in a panicked frenzy while Mr. G&W jumps erratically side-to-side next to her. K. Rool nearby attempts to escape on his propellerpack. A beam of light catches all three.
-Meta Knight, Ridley: Ridley roars and flies around, dodging several light attacks and expelling plasma from his mouth, while Meta Knight similarly swirls around him in the air, slashing at the light with his sword. A light beam hits them each.
-Wario, Pac-Man: Wario attempts to ride away on his motorcycle. Pac-Man reverts to his classic form and races off, trailing closely behind Wario, before a beam of light hits them both.
-King Dedede: Dedede is quickly whisked away on a palanquin carried by several Waddle Dees before the light catches him.
-R.O.B., Bowser Jr.: Both launch themselves into the air, with R.O.B. using Robo Burner and Jr. in the Junior Clown Car. Each are hit with a beam of light.
-Shulk: Shulk activates the Speed Monado Art and runs off, narrowly dodging light attacks using his foresight. He miscalculates the next light attack, however, causing him to stumble, and a second beam of light pierces through him.
-Ryu, Ken: The street fighters are back-to-back, both in a fighter's stance and each facing an approaching beam of light head-on. They throw a punch and a kick respectively until the two beams meet in the middle, vanishing them both.
-Cloud: Cloud pauses to focus on charging his Limit Gauge, then screams and unleashes a massive energy beam from the Buster Sword at an oncoming light attack. The light vaporizes the beam and overwhelms Cloud.
-Simon & Richter: Both fighters battle side-by-side, with Simon wielding his whip and Richter flinging a silver cross until both are subdued.
Bro your scaring all the chicks off, this is cringe and all the chicks seen you type this, im gonna need you to calm down brother
Idk what the guy from 9 months ago was saying, this is actually kinda cool to imagine, keep cooking 👍
This is probably the best comment i’ve ever read on a video about smash holy😭
Ngl this was nice to read
I honestly forgot that in this part 9:15 Mario just fucking dies, not even of injury or anything else, he just gives up.
I like how sonic was one of a few fighters that could have actually avoided the light or whatever it's called but only got caught trying to help someone else
Falco's containtment was PERSONAL 😂
Fr he was consumed by like 5 at once like dayum
Everyone: Run, attack or something like that.
Inklings: Hide!!
Snake: B O X!
It’s the optimal method in mgs, he’s just putting his experience to use
I'll never forget the moment when Nintendo pulled an infinity war. First it was our favorite Marvel characters, and now our favorite childhood Nintendo characters as well. 😭
Those CGI cutscenes are awesome! If there would be more of them...
My heart has been broken when I saw Sonic and Rosalina being caught, especially knowing how kind they are and that they will be free only after a long moment... And those cutscenes where everyone dies are just sad and appalling...😢
Wii Fit Trainer trying to user her 1 second of invulnerability was a nice touch
If you look at the end scene of subspace emissary it’s the same place as the beginning of the cinematic
Fan theory
When kirby turns into all of those stars, hes going back in time to Melee’s opening to temporarily escape galeem
astro bear For now on this is canon
Wanna hear my theory on Hero's trailer?
It takes place in the ending where Dharkon wins and instead of everyone dying a few survived. Link and the Heros where some of them. So Link is fighting his possessed friends until Hero saves him.
@@RinsableCurve oh we’re bringing in timeline branches? I like that
@@wayverleesoulsong it's just gets better! The Sepheroth trailer could be in Galeam's ending! It's actually more likely since in his ending he doesn't need to absorb Master Hands to send the wave of light and that heppens in Seperoth's trailer
what?

Am I the only one who had to rewind a million times because everything was happening so fast
magical barriers get wiped instantly
a blue shield stops light
Shiny metal=reflect
Light still gets through magic barriers, so...
It's just a theory of mine
I’m an ice climbers main so I have bias toward them but in the Galeem cutscene in world of light if ice climbers were there, I have 2 ideas
1. They see light coming toward them, and popo throws nana up using up b (belay). Then popo gets struck by the light, nana screams, and then the light hits nana.
2. Again popo uses belay and gets struck, but instead nana disappears because in the game if popo dies, nana just vanishes
there names is lazy as hell
I’d go with option one
A thing that gets me a little unsatisfied is not being able to see the characters after we get the true ending, instead we got to see sprits just forming something, I just want to see them all celebrate.

Am I the only one who's likes that Kirby is the only one who survives and is the only on to save the universe
dropkick he’s thanos
Hell yeah
@brown box r/wooosh
@@necrozma5639 oh yay u did it
No
I’m surprised that Kirby was able to avoid those light beams and the only way he escaped is because he has the star
tbf it IS called "the WARP star". Nobody else could've survived. Palutena and Bayonetta couldn't because heaven and hell are in the same universe. Super Sonic couldn't survive either because it's never shown to warp Sonic to other dimensions in the games. Sure the chaos emeralds can warp you back in time as shown in Sonic 06 but Sonic still would not have survived even if he went back in time. Link can't just travel to the dimension of the goddesses, he needs their premission.
@Chuck [The Yellow Angry Bird] also Sonic couldn't really go to space to save himself as the plant was covered in the light. And the light killed the triforce goddesses (hence why the Hylian shield took 3 hits, because the triforce goddesses protects this version of Link, the Hero of the Wild), so Link couldn't do that even if he wanted to. He could've done it before the light, but that isn't really fitting for the Hero Link is
@@chucktheyellowangrybird2134
But in Bayonetta’s game, Paradiso and Inferno are in different realities to the universe she’s already in
@@chucktheyellowangrybird2134 actually bayonetta and palutena were confirmed they couldve escaped by the creator
We need Ian Flynn and IDW to make a comic adaptation of this. And no, no Penders because he would turn it into a bad twilight story.
I mean, Archie Sonic could’ve defeated both of them by himself
As long as I get to see my beloved comic Mega Man again 🥲
In the opening scene you never actually see little mac get hit
3:04 "Your Hylian Shield is badly damaged"
"Your Hylian Shield Broke!"
i love how the only one who survived was the cute pink ball
Yep. Me too. I was hoping Kirby wouldn't be the ONLY one who survived(maybe he could've grabbed a friend or two while he was riding his star like in Brawl), but at least SOMEONE survived the ordeal. Imagine if EVERYONE was consumed by Galeem. Then all would have been lost.
Me: *is going easy on a new player
New player: Wow, you are trash at this game!
Me: 3:00
Lmfao
At least mario got consumed off screen.
A lot of characters, like King Dedede, Wario, Ness and both of the Mario Brothers are consumed off screen.
i love the detail of pit and dark pit losing their flight once palutena gets consumed
10:24
*when your view in a car turns to the sun’s direction*
3:41 the dog cowering in fear while the duck tries to fly them away. 🥺
Galeems hands are right-hands but dharkons are left hands
So you say Nintendo is telling us left handed people are evil? Yes ik Galeem is evil too but Dharkon has a more evil vibe
Honestly, I get why some people were disappointed at WoL when compared to Subspace Emmisary, but the way I see it, it was either this or nothing. It's already a huge task to even bring all these characters together in a single game, I can't even imagine the contract hell it would be to write a more extense story with all of them. Smash has deals with many different gaming companies, and all of them could be picky about many things that could difficult the development
I kinda like how Sonic and Palutena are the only ones who tried to save someone
I Wish Peach And Daisy Would Join The World Of Light Too
Yeah, and Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, Rouge, Omega, Sliver and Blaze. Also Eggman too.
@@arberihoxha2211No, its a bad idea
Anime
I still miss the level of story that Subspace Emissary from Brawl had.
You know it’s fun jumping from one hyperfixation to another when you notice the main character of your current hyperfixation standing in the crowd
Tldr: Me going crazy when I noticed tiny Sonic in the bottom right corner standing next to Inkling
Once the two evil spirits are defeated all the fighters cheered for Kirby and went to peaches castle to celebrate and the spirits who died form Galeem and Dharkon long ago go to heaven
This isnt just an adventure mode, it's a prophecy of our world.
lol how
@@RoachCatJr because, we're all going to die from nukes
Chaos X where are the nukes in this video
@@RoachCatJr no where. But the circumstances are the same as if we were to be nuked. No matter how hard we try to escape, we will all get caught in the catastrophy.
Chaos X ur right lol. kinda existentially depressing when i think bout it. everything i've done, or other people have done, could jus be erased in a matter of minutes
Farewell Sonic... Forever.
I like how Dharkon makes sure Galeem suffers in its ending, while in Galeem's ending it just fucking murders Dharkon.
The Light beams to Sonic, Pikachu, Captain Falcon, and Falco: WHERE YOU GOING? The 4 fighters trying to escape: Uhhh, to get the milk? The beams: I DON'T THINK SO!
Captain falcon trying to get outta dodge is great.
Dude was like “fuck this” and tried to run 😂
Seeing every character with red eyes is just…Downright scary as hell.
I love how falco just gets hit with 6 different beams
Pit and Pittoo canonically only have their powers because of Palutena. The 3DS game was actually headed by Sakurai, who headed this Smash Bros too and created Kirby, so he knew exactly what he was doing
So several literal gods didnt survive the light but a pink sphere riding a star did. Gotcha
Their magic shield thingies also happen to be weaker than some hobo kid's toy shield he found off a giant skeleton.
the pink sphere literally slays Gods for a single slice of cake regularly so it's not that suprising
@@mylam658 Everyone says that, but couldn't gods slay other gods too? Also idk if the people Kirby "slays" are gods...
I love how much the spirits that Galeem and Dharkon create resemble the oyrflies from FFX.
3:31
Fox: Falco, are you okay? Falco! *FALCOOOOOO!!!!*
2:39 dammit pit
I know Kirby is the creator's favorite, but canonically it makes sense for him too. He knows how to hyper warp and dimension jump. It DID actually fit him.
Bayonetta and Palutena also but said: "They are too hard to begginers", it would be cool to start with the 3, being Bayonetta the one that represent the darkness, Palutena the light and Kirby the balance
Galeem's light beams= COVID-19

When you think about it, Kirby probably is the strongest out of all the heroes
Sonic and Kirby would be my bet for the strongest heros. But for the strongest character in the game? It's a tie between those 2 and Sephiroth no doubt lol
@@Take_this_pleasesephiroth is literally way too op, he needs to be nerfed
I mean he technically is
Kirby
Sonic
Mario and Luigi
Sora, cloud and sephiroth and Bayonetta
Lore wise those guys are probably the most powerful characters in my opinion
