The fact that Bill Nye has a connection to Smash Bros is the greatest thing ever.
Everything has a connection to Smash.
I love it

For real tho.
@Corbin Terry Snake has been in another fighting game called Dream Mix TV World Fighters. Optimus Prime was also in this game, and he and the rest of the Transformers have crossed over with Marvel. Marvel has the Sky Fathers, beings that rule over their real life respective pantheon. One of them is Zues, and that means there's Hades somewhere in that pantheon. Or if you wanted to be a little less convluted, just say Kid Icarus or Persona.
French Jigglypuff is the best thing ever XD

the “grab the coins” voice clip sounds like a villain from an 80’s cartoon yelling commands at his minions
Get a friend that hypes you up the same way the Melee announcer hypes up Ice Climbers.
Lol what are friends every anime character keeps talking about them. Seems like a popular man since lots of other people wish they had him.
get ready to be wobbl'd
"What has two eyes, scaly skin, and has wierd tongue?"
"My uncle"
*What*
“No! Reptiles!”
“Like I said”
he's mark zuckerberg's older cousin
Its bowser form the mario movie
@@arasey I can't believe Jack Black is scaly and has a weird tongue.
3:14 I will have a burning fire of disdain in my heart forever for you, for bringing this to my mind.
You're

Lol
When I was a kid and played Melee I didn't know English so I always sayed "mili".
Cause that's how he fucking says it lol.
To my surprise, years later when I entered the scene, everyone pronounce it more like an "e". And I mean like the "e" in "elephant"
AYO ITS PKSPARXDAHOTNESS
Can we talk about how he says "IIINICNEROAR!"
God damn he even rolls the r a bit
I know right? Every single time I pick Incineroar, that voice clip just brings so much hype
@@pressatopound6029 As an Incineroar main I totally agree
Announcing him like in a wrestling match.
He announces incinerary as if he was a wrestler announcer which makes sense
I love it when the Smash announcer calls me a Failure every time I lose, classic!
CLASSIC!
ALLLL-STAR!
He's right though.
But it feels like a hug when he says WOW, INCREDIBLE!
@@andandampersand8202 Like dad is finally proud of me
Man i get pumped when dean says "READY? GO!"
Fun fact: Xander mobus also voiced the conductor in a hat in time.
I was waiting for Alax to mention that but then he didn't and now I'm just disappointed
WHAT
PECK-NECK!
A-A-A-A-A MEEEERRRDUUURRRR? ON MYE OWL EXPREESSS????????
He also voiced Freddy in FNAF The Musical
I think the Brawl announcer gives Luigi plenty of respect. Gives me the vibe of "Oh, didn't expect to see you here, but DAMN, welcome to the fight!"
This plays into his cowardly personality. It's like the announcer is surprised that Luigi had the courage to show up, but he's stoked that he did! Honestly, I love this delivery.
Exactly
Bill nye
i was gonna say! that's not disappointed voice, that's INTRIGUED voice!
Precisely, as a Luigi fan I love that presentation
Luigi gang
Ganondorf Ganondorf Ganondorf....

Alex Alex Alex...
Luigi Luigi Luigi....
STEEEEVE
Ugh my heart. It hurts.
I think that when the brawl announcer says "Luigi" in brawl he sounds somewhat intrigued, like if he was surprised by Luigi's abilities after judging him hastily, which makes sense as Luigi is an underdog character
Maybe for you it's different, but I sincerely can't hear it's pronunciation as something other than that
6:35 Brawl Announcer's "Grab the coins" has the same energy as Mephiles' "Tilted at the towers"
I heard it immediately 😂

He should make a full version of the 'Alex, Ganondorf, Luigi' song
i agree strongly
agreed
if you listen to the brawl announcer through a wii remote, you can hear "gooigi"
GOOIGI FOR SMAAAAASH
Oh yeah, I forgot they used the Wiimotes like that!
I almost forgot they even _had_ speakers on them.
@@cobwebinthecorner I remember going to a friends house to play Brawl and being absolutely confused as to why I heard Kirby say “hiiii~” through the Wiimote.
Someone pointed out that it sounds like someone greeting their friend and a party and then seeing they brought along their annoying little sibling, and I can't get enough of it.
We can’t forget about the time in Brawl after the announcer says the fighters name, that the character screams from your controller if you’re playing with the Wiimote, especially if you pick Captain Falcon
Literally the only reason I main Ike is because he'd say "Prepare yourself."
YEERRRRAAGHH!!
DOCTOR MICHEAL MORBIUS "ITSHHAAHMORBINATIAUGAHAGHH"
Yo I always LOVED the way the announcer said “Gannondorf” in Melee. Sounded like he was straight up terrified to be in Gannondorf’s presence. Such a small touch left a big impression on me in this weird way.
Alax is going to be the next Smash announcer and he's going to say every character unenthusiasticly until he screams "ALAAAX!" at the top of his lungs.
Don't forget Ganondorf.
And Luigi
Imagine the announcer doing finger guns when he says “Alex”. That might help.
Thank you so much lmao
ngl, I like how they announced Luigi's name in Brawl, sounds mysterious
Fits his weirdness and connection to ghosts... Also his final smash in that game.
@@igyl2867 EXACTLY

Fun fact : Melee's announcer also said the French and German name of jigglypuff. And hearing him struggling to say "rondoudou" is one of the funniest thing in this game.
What if they announced ”the announcer” for smash? That would be an epic announcement!
Announcement.
sub to me
In the Smash Wii U 50 fact extravaganza, you can hear Xander say, "The Announcer!" so that's kind of close I guess lol
they can use the same sound from *Mii*
Im thinking about how that would work. Maybe have it be a sort of meta fighter, playing as the character select token, and fighting using ui elements and text. The final smash could be placing the token on an enemy and dragging them around.
Oh yeah also when they get selected the announcer just says "Me!"
Imgonnapissonthemoon
Honestly, hearing how Xander said "Enderman" was just
wow
5:51 thank you for recognizing the cleverness of french localisation for Pokémon names. Also Blastoise's french name is litteraly "Tank Turtle" and it's the best thing
Xander as a father:
"This is my wife, *CINDYYYY!!*
My daughter, *Amber~*
My sons, *RYANNNNN* and Alex."
Why does no one acknowledge the sheer boredom in Xander’s “Zelda” read
It fits because Zelda's such a boring character to play against
Twilight Princess Zelda looks bored out of her mind half the time, the announcer just replicated that lol
Because Zelda's playerbase does not deserve the announcer to be preppy because of their garbage playstyle
@@lucylu3342 Toilet Paper Zelda is not in this game though
Maybe he did the reads in alphabetical order, and by the time he got to Zelda he really wanted lunch?
the way that xander mobus says "sephiroth" became my favorite announcer line the second i heard it. so much power and evil behind that line. i love it.
2:43 I hate and love that I can point out this song anywhere.
It's "Calling to the Night" from Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops. Alex truly is cultured.
I like how Brawl's announcer said Luigi. It has a sort of, curiosity to it that's just unforgettable to me
My favorite announcer is Xander Mobus. Other than his upbeat way of saying certain fighter names, I enjoy that he has a more conversational role in the 50-Fact Extravaganza on Wii U. He also did a similar presentation for Ultimate, although I like the 50-Fact one just a teeny bit more.
The way he says "Alex" is like "Oh yeah of course Alex is here too ok then"
Almost thought this was a Steve know your moves
Can’t blame you, the JoJo Steve would definitely fit the thumbnail
Everytime a new DLC character was out before I’d select the character for the first time I’ll try imitate the announcer’s voice to how he might possibly say it then select the character to see whether I was right. I did come close on some but failed most of the time 😅😂
I was waiting for him to talk about Xander voicing joker and the announcement
It’s a shame that shouting the game’s title wasn’t a tradition that carried on after SSBM
*_"Super Smash Bros. for Wiiiiii UUUUU"_*
I remember when I played melee as a kid, the announcer would always pronounce the name weirdly. Instead of “bowser” I would hear “bumser” and instead of “Samus” I would hear “sose” or some shit
Who your favorite fighter? Mine is Sose
This is a ytp in the making.
Bumser in german is a naughty word
For me I always heard psalm us.
i still can’t believe there’s a game where I can fight minecraft Steve and joker from persona 5.
The way the announcer says your main will forever be ingrained your head. It feels really powerful when starting a match and it's a way to hype up b4 it if your friend isn't there watching
Every so often you come across a UA-cam video and from the title alone you think “this is the content I’ve been waiting for”
R O N D O U D O U is going to live in my head rent-free now. Thanks, Alax.
My favorite announcer line is melee's: A NEW RECORD!!!
So fun thing about Joker and Xander Mobus being the announcer. In an interview, he mentioned that he's given a list of names to say that has both real and fake entries so he can't spoil anything, and when he saw "Joker" one day, he thought that was one of the fake names. He was rather surprised when Joker was actually announced later.
This video brought me back to that old YTPMV, "Mario Wario Lucario". Man was that good.
*flashes footage of Ann Coulter while saying a really bad word*
I think my favourite voice line of Xander’s has to be the way he says “INCINEROR!”
I love to crush Persona 5 Joker Fangirls' hopes and dreams. I've seen too many times them telling me "oh my god, joker's voice is so hot", and then I show them a picture of his voice actor, Xander Mobus, who just looks like a huge dork.
I love it.
But Joker barely speaks in Persona 5
7:47
Wow,a petition with thousands signatures to have the announcer's voice changed.
"The announcer was so different from anything else i had heard"
*"SMASH MELEE WAS MY FIRST GAME"*
2:49 *GANONDORF. >:(*
As a french guy, I really appreciated the Rondoudou joke. Made me laugh out loud thank you
I absolutely love how he says megaman. It's like he's still reeling from the hype of him getting announced
"Sounds like a stern parent at a grocery store. "GANONDORF!" "
Idk why that's so godamn funny, but THAT is godamn funny
In my opinion, I think it was Smash 4's 50-Fact Extravaganza that made people fall in love with Xander's take on the announcer, since it allowed him to show some character besides just being an announcer.
Ok but can we talk about how cool Xander Mobus' name is because god damn that is such a epic name lmao
When the announcer said the "tiny mey-mey" I burst out laughing in freaking tears for like 2 minutes
Brawls announcer sounds so surprised luigi is even there
i will never get over the voice clip in Melee when the announcer has to say Rondoudou, its just so goddamn funny to me
If memory serves, when recording the names for Smash 4 and Ult, Xander actually got a lot of "dummy names" so that even he doesn't know who's really in or not.
I love how the Reocurring joke with Bowser Jr. being a one-sided character, makes me appreciate how he evolved in the Mario games over the years. If you try to make an analysis on the little guy, check out the spinoff like the RPG and Mario+Rabbids game since he is a lot more tamed and mature in recent games. He even asked Mario to help him in Bowser's Fury too.
-Announcer is announced for DLC
-Announcer now announces Announcer when Announcer is selected
2:20 ironically in the japanese version of smash he says "Game Set"
I always thought Xander Mobus saying STEVE sounds like when you’re talking shit about your boss but you don’t realize that they’re right behind you.
Announcer is such a chad he got his own game as a Japanese chad schoolboy and shot a god cuz there can only be one
And he did all that because he's a Chad.
@@UNSCMarine117 Such a Chadly Chad
How dare you call my boy junior like that (I love how you went from angry demonic red eye to a rainbow flower field by junior with the announcer in the background)
6:04 as a baguette man i feel attacked
I wouldn't mind having your mime impression of all character. That was funny as hell!
I love how Xander says Greninja, it gives off this sneaky vibe that perfectly fits the character.
also at 8:24 he sounds like professor membrane from Invader Zim and I just find that hilarious
I can’t on hear it now. Thanks I hate it. LOL. JK. Invader Zim was my childhood.
I still don't get what's notable about the way he says "ganondorf" or "alex", but the editing still made me laugh every time.
Luigi? Alex. Ganondorf.....STEEEEVEEEEEEE!
Alex making videos that are gonna explode
Man you really know what video topics people wanna see videos on, but don't even know they want those vids so badly! Keep it up!
Did anyone just see buff steve and click immediately, no reading the title, no questions asked.
The funniest smash announcer is the SSB Ultimate Italian one
"Link Bambino"
Lmao that mom at the grocery going “Ganondorf” lmaoooooooo
The way the Brawl announcer says Luigi suggests intrigue.
"Oooh, Luigi..."
The smash announcer just likes Steve a lot more.
I actually love the Luigi one in Brawl, looks like he just discovered that luigi was in the game, and he somehow was surprised about it
I think he is questioning bowser junior because he still is confused about his mother.
But that’s just a theory. A GAME THEORY
Says a different name in the *exact* same tone and volume*
“ITS BIASED! HE HATES ME!!!”
3:34 *BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY*
the ganandorf name part was the best
My favorite Sonic voice actor is quitting.😭😭 I'm having a moment right now(not rlly but still sad low-key🙃) , thanks for uploading Alax👍🏾
The ending cracked me up. I usually don’t laugh out loud or even smile during some UA-cam videos even if I find it funny, but this had me laugh even during the ad that followed.
And the way it just OBLITERATED the frame lol
Imagine the announcer just saying random things. I'll let you picture it.
"WINDEX WIPES!" "Lego Brick." "DOG!!!!!" *"TAX EVASION!!"*
Thanks for another Great video, man. For me, those melee announcer clips are pretty much permanently implanted in my brain.
3:28 After it was revealed why he's a legend I spontaneously got hype.
My favorite thing about the announcer is usually how he says the name. Whether it is emphasis, enthusiasm, or distress. My favorite announcer lines are:
"Ganondorf" in Melee.
"Meta Knight" in Brawl.
"Zero Suit Samus" in Smash 4.
And
"Banjo & Kazooie" in Ultimate.
Not gonna lie that Steve was pretty intimidating.
I think they say Alex like that as she's often the forgotten minecraft protagonist.
I've always liked the French Pokémon names because I can get the jokes more easily, and sometimes, they're just pure genius
Also RONDOUDOU
Duuuude. For a while, me and my older sisters only had a GameCube and we played Melee almost excessively to the point where Dean Harrington’s voice is engraved in my memory and thinking of “GAME!”, “STAMINAAA!”, BRRREAK THE TARGETS!”, and “READYYY?... GO!” when I’m tired and burnt out just makes me feel all warm and toasty inside and I know I have this big, stupid grin, but god damn.
i didn’t even know Joker was the smash announcer
MARIO! FOX! Luigi.
"Wait, can you repeat that again?"
That brawl announcer brought nostalgia unto me
I think we're all thinking of the same video every time he does the Ganondorf thing.
thank you
