This is what Smash needs more of. I will never understand why they moved away from this kind of story mode in Smash. Every character is full of personality despite never speaking, the introduction shots are iconic, there are hints at a deeper lore to the Smash universe. Everyone starts off acting like they do in their regular game series doing their own thing, but quickly get drawn into this big end of the world plot and slowly team up until finally you have every character working together. The idea of everyone turning into a trophy when defeated that can only be revived by another fighter is genius. It's perfect. As a kid I didn't know who some of these characters were but because of the way they were all given good moments in the story I liked them anyway
Well they can’t really do something like this ever again. Ultimate has too many characters. It would be impossible to do a story like this with 76 characters. That’s literally over twice brawls roster, and subspace didn’t even use the full roster. Too many cutscenes to animate, too many characters to work in, too many levels that would need to be made for all those characters, etc. It’s a lot of time, effort, and money to spend on what is ultimately a side mode. So yeah, pretty easy to understand why they never did it again.
@@jonahj9519 You're right that there are too many characters for a story exactly like this following individuals, but it would be relatively easy to make a story with the same kind of scope where everyone starts off in their own franchise's world and go from there. It would be much more manageable if all the Zelda characters started off in Hyrule etc etc, maybe the villains and heroes don't work together immediately but pretty soon they do, and so on. you could do it, it would be hard but you could
@@jonahj9519 You definitely got a point but honestly.. I think I'd be willing to wait for a new Smash for like 10 years from now on if we'll get a SSE2.
My favorite part about this story is that it does a fantastic job of personifying certain aspects of heroism and villainy. The heroes exemplify virtues such as teamwork, fortitude, willpower, and forgiveness. The villains exemplify vices such as deception, greed, and betrayal. All of that without a single word of dialogue. Really impressive work.
The best part of this? Even if you have no clue who these people are, you can still get a general idea of their personality, goals, rivals and motives, simply by watching this. Great all around.
Except Mario and Luigi, they didn’t interact at all. Like some cutscene before the great maze where they hug or something like with Kirby and King Dedede, but absolutely nothing
47:55 best moment in the whole thing. Dedede doesn't do any of the 'villain begrudgingly works with the hero' stuff, he just straight up tackle hugs Kirby and drags him off to go save the world. What a guy
48:08 is still one of my favorite parts. Having Link, Zelda, and Ganon all setting aside their timeless battle against one another to battle a shared enemy is really kind of amazing.
I’m pretty sure this and WOL are the only times in any story where we actually have the tri force wielders working together and WOL is a stretch admittingly
I love when Samus saves Pikachu. She didn't have to, and it would have given her location up but she saw someone suffering and had to help. It says a lot about her character.
Name a more iconic duo than Samus and Pikachu. That's right, you can't. If Smash was allowed to be canon to other universes, I would absolutely want Pikachu to be Samus's sidekick for the rest of the Metroid series.
14:55 Luigi's cutscene will always be my favorite in the entire game, no matter what. That variation of the Luigi's Mansion theme in the background just makes it...perfect.
@@Ldragon18 You're acting like Luigi isn't rather cowardly unless the situation calls for it. It's how he's always been. He scares easily, but is able to put his fears behind him when enough is at stake. Here, there's nothing at stake (at least, to his knowledge) so he has no reason to make much of an attempt to swallow his timidity.
@@NoobsailerRBH your right, but it wasn't that serious I was just saying if he had to end up as a statue he could of at least been in a fight with king dee dee dee

I realize it makes no sense for all of these characters to exist in the same universe but it is still so cool even today. The dark and dreary settings for the beginning, The crazy spectacle fighting cutscenes, the amazing music. I miss the smash world that was like this. I still like the world of light but the cutscenes really helped this game out.
@@TitanusJase621 and if I remember right Tabuu in subspace emissary is a kid (possibly the same from the original smash bros) that grew up and now thinks its embarrassing (or maybe TABOO) to play with his toys hence why his goal is to make them all just figurines to have standing around instead of playing with them
Subspace is one of the main reasons why Brawl is one of my favorite video games of all time. The cutscenes are so beautifully animated, you can sense what the characters are saying. I just love how mature the characters look.
Yes. That and the soundtrack. It was really intense, especially if you compare Final Destination with the tracks from Smash 4 and Ultimate. The game really took a mature approach to the series and I love it
@@JustChllin agreed there's like no cutscene and THEY HAD VOICE ACTING IT HAD POTENTIAL TO SURPASS SUBSPACE BUT NOOOO LETS WASTE IT WITH POINTESS FIGHTING
I remember the good old days, playing Story Mode with my brother all day. 6 years later, I'm playing Ultimate by myself, with no company by my side. Brawl days were the best; as they say, 'time flies when you're having fun'.
I'll always love how Diddy just yanks Fox and Fox is like "great guess I'm doing this now". Then when he grabs Falco he just shrugs as his friend's giving him the most annoyed look
I love how Wario is an absolute jerk to literally everyone for kicks and giggles, he's arguably one of the characters that was... well in character the most.
One of my favorite things about this game was Peach just giving half the time. Giggling at how serious Shiek was, walking along the firing guns, offering tea, fixing her dress before the boss fight when everyone was ready to fight
@@flargarbason1740 I mean considering all the Mario games she’s been in and the Bowser plots she’s desensitized to all the violence on this level, all Mario characters should be,they go on cosmic level adventure against cosmic enemies all the time the Marioverse characters might have the most experience dealing with big crossover events like these
@@hello-kx8gx Yet in other games he is potentially a very difficult boss or really annoying. I think the hardest Bowser Boss I ever played was Paper Mario and the Thousand Year door. He shows up right after you take down the main baddy of the game and since he was super hard to deal with you're literally softened up for Bowser to just steamroll ya. I died so many times to him more than the final boss against the Queen of Darkness.
It’s not THAT ooc. Mario ditches or otherwise treats Luigi poorly all the time (including the infamous scene of Mario grinding his heel into Luigi’s foot for daring to win in one of the sports titles.) So…this actually is pretty on-point for their relationship…unfortunately
This is why this game will FOREVER hold a special place in my heart: No game or movie EVER combined so many characters and had them interact with each other so uniquely. And yes, I'm here because I'm disappointed with Ultimate's cutscenes.
@@SaneZoomer you are kinda the reason were not getting another story mode, also smash ultimate only took 2 years to make and WoL took at least 4 months, there was little time, YOU GUYS WANTED THIS GAME EARLY if you want a story wait a couple of years until base progress is complete
Unpopular opinion: I prefer the lack of voice acting. Reason 1: Creates more room for visual story telling. Reason 2: Removes the possibility of cheesy dialogue.
@Ben Florez If we got something like Subspace or even better, then, of course, I would have rather waited 3 more years. And they could possibly add more content with that time as well. From the wise words of Shigeru Miyamoto "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." I'm not saying smash ultimate is bad or rushed, but you get it. I mean, look at Ocarina of Time. It was delayed multiple times and was eventually an amazing game.
@@dostwood5103 Yes but Ultimate's development time was there, just in different ways, the game has infinitely better and more balanced fighting mechanics and many more characters that all add development time. Theres also the entire spirits thing and world of light that while I dont like it nor care for it at all probably took some time to do. Dont get me wrong I would've preferred a story mode like this a lot more since this was easily the best part of Brawl but Ultimate was not a rushed game by any stretch of the imagination and it is a quality, finished, 60 dollar worth game. I dont think I wouldve want to wait several more years for them just to add a story mode even if it was like this since I mostly just play online and the game is a lot of fun. Having said that I would easily pay $30 for a dlc story that is the same quality as Brawl's that can be played online, that would be fun af, but it would be unfair to say "iT sShuuLD hAVe bEenN iN tHe gAEm" because the game is already pretty good with a lot of content. Outside of the story ultimate is light years ahead of brawl in everything else.
You know whats funny though. Everyone was aware of what was going on exept Yoshi. Every cutscene he was in he looked high. I mean Yoshi, woke up saw Link said whats up and just followed him. For no reason. Thats true dedication fighting so you can go back to sleep
Sonic Unleashed had better Curscenes, Gaming and Everything, so, kinda nope, Still, don't misunderstand me, I love Smash, even while it is... N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O.
@@Raven-yv6di Yeah! I couldnt play ir completely but with what I played: Windmill Isle mostly, I cant remember right now everything, it was a year ago, I saw how BEAUTIFUL it was, and still is, when I saw the Intro I was HYPED, how Sonic crushes everything (altough no sign of Crush 40 haha), the Werehog, The Dark Gaia Awakening, I wanted to see it infinitely, I really love it and I would like to be able of getting it mine, but well, Endless Posibilities.
Anyone else notice how badass Mario was in this story? It's the most serious we've ever seen him. Honest to god, I think this is Power Star Mario when he's not possessed by Boos.
I definitely understand why people praise this game's story so much, it's absolutely amazing! The personalities, interactions, side-quests and plot twists were all great! I do understand why they no longer invest so much in the story since it'd be hard to do now that there are so much more characters. For an all-out battle type game like Smash Bros, the story isn't usually the main thing to begin with. But I would be a fool not to give Brawl the credit it deserves. Big thank you to everyone who recommended this to me!
2:17 I love how Piranha Pete’s first thought was to take care of Mario as fast as possible. Since he didn’t know who Kirby was, he just saw Mario as the biggest threat, and had to take him out of the equation before kidnapping the princesses.
Have you ever wondered who has the most screen time in Subspace Emissary? Probably not but I roughly figured it out. Now keep in mind that I only used my iPhone timer and this video so it isn’t perfect but it’s something! Zelda - 3:39 Peach - 3:28 Lucas - 3:19 Diddy Kong - 3:11 Bowser - 3:07 Kirby - 3:00 Pit - 2:59 Samus - 2:39 King Dedede - 2:36 Mario - 2:31 Link - 2:23 Meta Knight - 2:20 Ganondorf - 2:20 Ness - 2:19 Pokemon Trainer - 2:16 Fox - 2:15 Luigi - 2:13 Wario - 2:12 Donkey Kong - 1:54 Pikachu - 1:52 Marth - 1:42 Lucario - 1:35 Captain Falcon - 1:33 Yoshi - 1:32 Olimar - 1:17 Snake - 1:15 Ike - 1:14 Nana - 1:13 Popo - 1:12 Falco - 1:11 Galoem - 0:59 Tabuu - 0:55 Master Hand - 0:54 Sonic - 0:41 Ridley - 0:29 Rayquaza - 0:27 Palutena - 0:15 Toon Link - 0:08 Wolf - 0:07 JigglyPuff - 0:07 Petey Piranha - 0:07
Dedede actually coming in clutch. Just like in a bunch of other Kirby games he is always the misunderstood hero. Also 46:44: Dedede actually wakes up Bowser, kills him, reawakens him, and then bitch smacks him afterwards for being annoying. What an absolute Chad.
Here’s what I love about Subspace. All of our favorite Nintendo characters uniting to fight the big fight but mostly how characters interact. Lucas goes from being a scaredy-cat to developing and becoming more brave. He showed absolutely no fear when him and the trainer were about to fight Galleom. He would be scared out of his mind if he was back at the zoo. Lucas misses his friend Ness but realizes he must stick with the trainer to save him and after Meta Knight saves them both, (another awesome moment) Lucas shakes his hand. Another one is Diddy working with the Star Fox pilots to save his uncle DK. I love the team up of Samus and Pikachu. As well as the two captains of Olimar and Falcon. Lucario lifting Snake’s box is always a classic. Snake’s reaction to Game & Watches, lol. Mr. Game & Watch, a 2D man holding a 3D umbrella object in its 2D hand like WHAT? Haha. Ike being the only person to actually stop a Subspace Bomb. Luigi interacting with Waddle Dees. And I love how the story never reveals what Bowser does to everyone he turns into trophies. It’s just self-explanatory. Every character he turns into a trophy, he likes to lock up somewhere for no reason lol. I guess all Subspace worlds are linked together since Luigi, Dedede and Ness all woke up and immediately freed everybody. Same thing with Wario being freed by Kirby. Also gotta love King Dedede petting Kirby. Zelda and Link, freeing Ganon for the fight against Tabuu, a teamup we never thought was possible. The classic group of 5. Mario, Link, Pit, Kirby and Yoshi. The 2 on 2 battle during The Lake Shore level was just so epic (I feel like this team was a little weak however, since they let Bowser get away, couldn’t stop Dedede themselves, didn’t even revive Ness and Luigi when they had the chance (despite 1. them being the necessary plot points to save everyone from Tabuu and 2. covered in rubble, but they weren’t covered in rubble during the cutscene of their revival) and they also couldn’t stop the ancient minister from dropping another subspace bomb, but it’s okay) I also love how R.O.B., a newcomer in brawl technically isn’t a living game character since he originated as toy. But the Subspace Emissary feels like it gave R.O.B. his own origin story and actually gave life to the character. The ancient minister revealed to be R.O.B. was just awesome. Idk if I’m the only one that caught this but why is it that the two Mario Bros Plumbers are the ones to get launched into the sky and turn into a star and then trophy? First Mario at the Midair Stadium and then Luigi by king Dedede. I also like the touch of character introductions making a certain sound for when it’s a normal good guy and a villain. Zero Suit Samus was the only one with a unique sound for her intro and idk why or what the case with that is. And of course, I love two of Sakurai’s characters being the heroes with Dedede’s badges feeding Ness and Luigi and Kirby himself too to free more people. He also destroyed the Subspace gunship. And of course, a Sega character saving everyone from Tabuu
I personally enjoyed where they ALL teamed up together. But, what taken my heart was when Lucas went on even when Ness was missing. They all teamed up to take down one guy.
The funny thing is, the lack of cage escape is actually completely consistent with how Zelda's up B works in gameplay. SSB gameplay that is, not LoZ's.
The reason why I love this game so much is not just the fun and amazing story mode, it’s the grittyness of it, the animation had this violent like aura to it, and the tension in each cutscene, it’s hard to explain but some people get what I mean by when I say these things about this game, there’s more I want to say, but I don’t want a essay. This game tops smash ultimate.
I totally get what you mean. The overall feel of this storyline is dark… the graphics have a dark gritty tone compared to the cutscenes in WOL and I partially think that’s due to the graphic quality of the time… but it made for an amazing adventure with some hidden sinister tones.
@@jaygreene3070 Uh... The cutscenes in WoL are in CGI... and they're very nice. The animation is better because it's CGI. The grittyness and violence in the trailers (like the ones from Sm4sh) are clearly present. I know Subspace Emissary is better than WoL, but don't overdo it either. Ultimate's storyline is dark too, even more than Subspace Emissary (all characters imprisoned and spirits enslaved by 2 deities opposed by light and darkness), it's just its way to present the story which is problematic. If there were more cutscenes and presented like the Subspace Emissary did, it would be easily better.
I think it was because Lucario challenged Meta Knight to a friendly duel, unlike the rest of the story where characters actually had beef with each other for various reasons
Ultimate had a better animation with its awesome CGI, and dialogues, yet it's less good than Subspace because of its way to present the story like a simple classic mode and not a story mode.
43:05 this moment will always give me goosebumps. How Meta Knight sacrifices his beloved Halberd, which he spent almost the entire game trying to reconquer, is so cool. And it also shows how good of a pilot Olimar is. He’s able to keep up with Samus’ Gunship, Captain Falcon in the Falcon Flyer and Falco in an Arwing AND able to outmanoeuvre the canons, and he is flying a Hocotate Freight Steam Ship. I’m not very familiar with Pikmin lore, but I can’t imagine in any lore freightships being fast and agile. Still, he actually manages. That’s impressive.
It's actually suggested most of the time through almost all the Pikmin games that the Hocotate ships Olimar gets are usually total garbage, so yeah, pretty much.
@@definitelyarealperson248 Yeah, how exactly did his leg get there? He would’ve had to step normally and, for whatever reason which makes no sense in a life threatening situation, move his foot backwards to get it stuck 😂
If they ever do a Smash cinematic universe i would love they do an adaptation of the Subspace Emissary, everything here was just perfect, the characters interactions, the lore, the villian, the cameos, the darker tone of everything, damn this was so epic
I didn't know a whole lot about Nintendo when I first played this game, but looking back, I gotta say Meta Knight is definitely fucking PISSED that they took his ship.
The amount of money I would pay for them to make a continuation or another story like like this is unexplainable. My childhood. :( I cried so hard watching this again.
@@benjackson7872 yeah. I liked Luigi's and Yoshi's too. Luigi was literally a timid being who has never seen a waddle-Dee, and Yoshi is just being cute as ever sleeping on that stump while Link walks past him.
After watching the mario movie and then imagining the future of Nintendo movies, I can confidently say a smash bros movie based around the subspace emissary story in brawl would be a dream come true hands down!
Bro... Thanks for piecing this together. This was my childhood. Nintendo was at their cinematic epitome at that time. Whilst I'm still very pleased with the products they dish out today, I miss the cinematic flare their games used to have such as Brawl. But yeah, these cutscenes are just delightful. I think we all know what the best moment is.... When Sonic comes in and saves everybody. 🖒
I also just wanted to say that, the cutscenes with Lucas are just sad af. I truly remember watching them as a kid, still not knowing who the heck he or Ness was, but knowing more of his backstory now and just knowing too that he is just a scared kid in this situation, just makes things a bit more sad for me, but i also do love how through the story, he clearly grows more and more, driving himself to find Wario so he can bring back the friend that helped him when he needed help the most
Low key, Kirby seems to be the main hero/ lucky hero in the whole storyline. Ultimate he outruns the light, brawl he gets dededes timed release badge thingy as well as saves the princess you picked from ending up like wario AND he takes out the main cannon on the dark ship with a single flyby.... or through... Kirby is an insatiable god of destructive power.... and cuddles
36:42 Look at how badass Peach is here. There's a ginormous explosion behind her, and she's just STANDING THERE with her umbrella not moving a single bit. Peach isn't worried AT ALL! I'm 100% sure she just let's Bowser kidnap her because she probably just doesn't care.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Peach's Parasol work as a shield against projectiles in Mario games? Maybe that's why she feels safe? Edit: Googled it, her Parasol is a magic item, allowing her to defend agains't enemies attacks and glide through the air.
@@KonkeyDongkey It might also be the fact that every statue is actually their pose when you select them in the normal Smash mode. Luigi is an exception for some reason (after Dedede smacks him into oblivion)
14:00 one of the greatest sword fight cutscenes in gaming history. Two of the most talented swordsmen dueling it out, only to find with a single attack that they are on the same side... And On top of that, if you watch in slow motion, every attack is actually deflected, no shortcuts at all!

I remember the good old days, playing Story Mode with my brother all day. 6 years later, I'm playing Ultimate by myself, with no company by my side. Brawl days were the best; as they say, 'time flies when you're having fun'.
It was the only Nintendo game my bro was actually cool with playing with me.
Broo same 😔👌
Yeah...there's a reason why Brawl is my favorite smash game.

Fox: Yeah, this happened to me too. *-_-*

I love how Wario is an absolute jerk to literally everyone for kicks and giggles, he's arguably one of the characters that was... well in character the most.
He’s a character we all love to hate.

And he also shows his love for cheating when everyone is going up the stairs in the end, Wario just uses his bike.
thats why i love him so much
Wario: we do a little trolling *fires arrow gun*
One of my favorite things about this game was Peach just giving half the time.
Giggling at how serious Shiek was, walking along the firing guns, offering tea, fixing her dress before the boss fight when everyone was ready to fight
My favorite part as well
Peach is just iconic😋💅🏾
Honestly I think this is the best characterization of Peach across any games. Just casually strolling while explosion go off around her.
I also loved her just walking up to the Game and watch trophy and just immediately reviving him just to lightly scold him lol

Very surprising.
Haven't even seen them in the same frame, not once.
@@jonathanwade3882 Why did i read ride into a dirty stuff (help PLS-) 💀
Exactly, as if they aren't brothers in Smash !
It’s not THAT ooc. Mario ditches or otherwise treats Luigi poorly all the time (including the infamous scene of Mario grinding his heel into Luigi’s foot for daring to win in one of the sports titles.)
So…this actually is pretty on-point for their relationship…unfortunately
This is why this game will FOREVER hold a special place in my heart: No game or movie EVER combined so many characters and had them interact with each other so uniquely.

Unpopular opinion: I prefer the lack of voice acting.
Reason 1: Creates more room for visual story telling.
Reason 2: Removes the possibility of cheesy dialogue.
Ben Florez I will gladly wait for five years maybe more
Shut up
And who are you?
@Ben Florez If we got something like Subspace or even better, then, of course, I would have rather waited 3 more years. And they could possibly add more content with that time as well. From the wise words of Shigeru Miyamoto "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." I'm not saying smash ultimate is bad or rushed, but you get it. I mean, look at Ocarina of Time. It was delayed multiple times and was eventually an amazing game.
@@dostwood5103 Yes but Ultimate's development time was there, just in different ways, the game has infinitely better and more balanced fighting mechanics and many more characters that all add development time. Theres also the entire spirits thing and world of light that while I dont like it nor care for it at all probably took some time to do. Dont get me wrong I would've preferred a story mode like this a lot more since this was easily the best part of Brawl but Ultimate was not a rushed game by any stretch of the imagination and it is a quality, finished, 60 dollar worth game. I dont think I wouldve want to wait several more years for them just to add a story mode even if it was like this since I mostly just play online and the game is a lot of fun. Having said that I would easily pay $30 for a dlc story that is the same quality as Brawl's that can be played online, that would be fun af, but it would be unfair to say "iT sShuuLD hAVe bEenN iN tHe gAEm" because the game is already pretty good with a lot of content. Outside of the story ultimate is light years ahead of brawl in everything else.
36:41 I love how Peach is just casually walking along the ship while its literally blasting Fox. She’s just vibing and I aspire to be like her.

Mario and Kirby were the main characters in my opinion
@@archerzombiemonrealwell I think it was just Kirby but I can see why due to Mario being the mascot for Nintendo
He was also very serious in the Mario movie like in the scene where he battled Bowser and DK.

I definitely understand why people praise this game's story so much, it's absolutely amazing! The personalities, interactions, side-quests and plot twists were all great! I do understand why they no longer invest so much in the story since it'd be hard to do now that there are so much more characters. For an all-out battle type game like Smash Bros, the story isn't usually the main thing to begin with. But I would be a fool not to give Brawl the credit it deserves.

This mode is the reason why Brawl will forever be my favorite smash game.

I started on Melee. Had a helluva time on Wii U kicking ass. But Brawl was most memorable for me.
I remember playing this back in elementary school
Dedede actually coming in clutch. Just like in a bunch of other Kirby games he is always the misunderstood hero.
Also 46:44:
Dedede actually wakes up Bowser, kills him, reawakens him, and then bitch smacks him afterwards for being annoying.
What an absolute Chad.
Dedede is one of my absolute favorite video game characters
In Ultimate, when your playing as King Dedede, hold down, then King DDD wil straight up seduce you
I thought king dedede flicked him
Dammit now you made me wonder why TerminalMontage hasn't made a moment when Dedede slaps Bowser yet XD
@@squaretoff don't worry, the way TerminalMontage Bowser is treated, everyone is gonna slap him at some point.
Here’s what I love about Subspace. All of our favorite Nintendo characters uniting to fight the big fight but mostly how characters interact. Lucas goes from being a scaredy-cat to developing and becoming more brave. He showed absolutely no fear when him and the trainer were about to fight Galleom. He would be scared out of his mind if he was back at the zoo. Lucas misses his friend Ness but realizes he must stick with the trainer to save him and after Meta Knight saves them both, (another awesome moment) Lucas shakes his hand. Another one is Diddy working with the Star Fox pilots to save his uncle DK. I love the team up of Samus and Pikachu. As well as the two captains of Olimar and Falcon. Lucario lifting Snake’s box is always a classic. Snake’s reaction to Game & Watches, lol. Mr. Game & Watch, a 2D man holding a 3D umbrella object in its 2D hand like WHAT? Haha. Ike being the only person to actually stop a Subspace Bomb. Luigi interacting with Waddle Dees. And I love how the story never reveals what Bowser does to everyone he turns into trophies. It’s just self-explanatory. Every character he turns into a trophy, he likes to lock up somewhere for no reason lol. I guess all Subspace worlds are linked together since Luigi, Dedede and Ness all woke up and immediately freed everybody. Same thing with Wario being freed by Kirby. Also gotta love King Dedede petting Kirby. Zelda and Link, freeing Ganon for the fight against Tabuu, a teamup we never thought was possible. The classic group of 5. Mario, Link, Pit, Kirby and Yoshi. The 2 on 2 battle during The Lake Shore level was just so epic (I feel like this team was a little weak however, since they let Bowser get away, couldn’t stop Dedede themselves, didn’t even revive Ness and Luigi when they had the chance (despite 1. them being the necessary plot points to save everyone from Tabuu and 2. covered in rubble, but they weren’t covered in rubble during the cutscene of their revival) and they also couldn’t stop the ancient minister from dropping another subspace bomb, but it’s okay) I also love how R.O.B., a newcomer in brawl technically isn’t a living game character since he originated as toy. But the Subspace Emissary feels like it gave R.O.B. his own origin story and actually gave life to the character. The ancient minister revealed to be R.O.B. was just awesome. Idk if I’m the only one that caught this but why is it that the two Mario Bros Plumbers are the ones to get launched into the sky and turn into a star and then trophy? First Mario at the Midair Stadium and then Luigi by king Dedede. I also like the touch of character introductions making a certain sound for when it’s a normal good guy and a villain. Zero Suit Samus was the only one with a unique sound for her intro and idk why or what the case with that is. And of course, I love two of Sakurai’s characters being the heroes with Dedede’s badges feeding Ness and Luigi and Kirby himself too to free more people. He also destroyed the Subspace gunship. And of course, a Sega character saving everyone from Tabuu

This game tops smash ultimate.
I totally get what you mean. The overall feel of this storyline is dark… the graphics have a dark gritty tone compared to the cutscenes in WOL and I partially think that’s due to the graphic quality of the time… but it made for an amazing adventure with some hidden sinister tones.
seeing these gritty graphics makes me feel like i'm gonna see gratuitous violence a la the boys
The game has some dark tone and graphics. It was so cool seeing Characters like Mario, Link and Sonic In a darker color and gameplay.
@@jaygreene3070 Uh... The cutscenes in WoL are in CGI... and they're very nice. The animation is better because it's CGI. The grittyness and violence in the trailers (like the ones from Sm4sh) are clearly present. I know Subspace Emissary is better than WoL, but don't overdo it either. Ultimate's storyline is dark too, even more than Subspace Emissary (all characters imprisoned and spirits enslaved by 2 deities opposed by light and darkness), it's just its way to present the story which is problematic. If there were more cutscenes and presented like the Subspace Emissary did, it would be easily better.
The violence of the animation is also present in trailers of 4 and Ultimate.

41:54 is still one of my favorite video game cutscenes of all time
The way this game had subtle choose your own adventure type things will always be one of the best parts of it
37:28 I love how Fox’s tail wags
thats adorable
@SuperMarioWilliam you can see him on the deck after and his tail isn't shaking
Why is no talking about king dedede hugging kirby at 47:57
That was so adorable!!😌😍
Well they are friends
It's cute seeing these two """Rivals""" interact in this game, and the part where Dedede just drags Kirby is adorable.
@@ProctorDorkchop just like how Diddy drags Fox and Falco, right?
@@thegreatmysterys kind of
If they ever do a Smash cinematic universe i would love they do an adaptation of the Subspace Emissary, everything here was just perfect, the characters interactions, the lore, the villian, the cameos, the darker tone of everything, damn this was so epic
😊
*When you realize that the last scene at the end (the sunrise) was the start of Ultimate’s World of Light*
Ikr!
Liam Cooney Man Link Changed His Clothing Very Quickly During That.
Some of the character reveal trailers settings for smash for wii u look like the rocky terrain in world of lights cutscenes
I know that
That glow at the final scene foreshadows Galeem
I didn't know a whole lot about Nintendo when I first played this game, but looking back, I gotta say
Meta Knight is definitely fucking PISSED that they took his ship.
Can you blame him? XD
****ing ****ed
He just paid that off!!
I love this so much, it’s literally perfect how the characters got there own personality
All of them have their reasons to arrive to this exact point 41:50
I like Dedede's portrayal, that plot twist that he did it because he knew what was going to happen and the way he hits Bowser are so badass
The amount of money I would pay for them to make a continuation or another story like like this is unexplainable. My childhood. :( I cried so hard watching this again.
I wish that smash ultimate had more character interactions and cutscenes 😗
I wished Ultimate had this hype high quality story mode
It be cool af to see the newer characters interact
@@Meracog yesssss
It's not that easy tho
It still shocks me to this day that when King deedeedee was trying to pick out people to come back later and save everyone... He picked Luigi
Hey! That’s Luigi, show him a little respect.
@@donkeykongisytpooping3002 you mean the king of second bananas?
Do not disrespect the superior brother.
Look at that pale skin. He's been living in his brother's shadow for too long.
@@amarigrover2685 That’s a low blow Colonel.
Ike has the best entrance in this. You just see the spinning sword and then BOOM 14:37
GREAT AETHER!!!
Diddy and Donkey Kong’s were cool too.
@@benjackson7872 yeah. I liked Luigi's and Yoshi's too. Luigi was literally a timid being who has never seen a waddle-Dee, and Yoshi is just being cute as ever sleeping on that stump while Link walks past him.
Being a huge Fire Emblem fan, I highly agree.
Facts
After watching the mario movie and then imagining the future of Nintendo movies, I can confidently say a smash bros movie based around the subspace emissary story in brawl would be a dream come true hands down!
Agreed!
Also, it's funny how Mario and Pit were partners in the Subspace Emissary, and yet: Mario played Kid Icarus in his new movie/film.
@@SebastianGMSFB wow, I didn’t noticed that!
I would love to see a Super Smash Bros movie as well.
Who else wishes that there was a cutscene of Ness and Lucas reuniting
LIKE HECK YES
lucas was always thinking on him and when they didn't get to see again, i was like " WOOOT
Me. They are the coolest!
True. That would add some closure.
Ness and Lucas are in whatever game they debuted in?
@@Sketchie_Arts318 ....they're not from the same game. Lucas is from mother 3 while ness is from earthbound (mother 2)
Bro... Thanks for piecing this together. This was my childhood. Nintendo was at their cinematic epitome at that time. Whilst I'm still very pleased with the products they dish out today, I miss the cinematic flare their games used to have such as Brawl. But yeah, these cutscenes are just delightful. I think we all know what the best moment is....
When Sonic comes in and saves everybody. 🖒
If anything, Nintendo is ten times more cinematic than they used to. Brawl is like the only one from those days.
Guys there is dialogue, captain falcon says “FALCON PUNCHHHH!!”
Snake says "Kept ya waitin huh"
And Ike says “AETHER!!!!”
Captain Falcon says “come on”.
And Mr Game & Watch says *beep*
Ness says “PK Thundaaah”
37:26 is so funny the way peach was able to Make peace with both Fox and Shiek
But where tf did she get that tea?
@@flargarbason1740 she’s British
Brawl literally had the best story mode who agrees?!?
ITz Mystic
um every sane person?
Yes
If better than the ultimate board game.
Meta knight is my best kirby evil villain
Story mode is why Brawl will always be one of my favorite games ever. Childhood....
43:03 I remember as kid thinking that was the most epic moment of the entire game.
Thats because it was, all of us thought it was the coolest thing ever. We where lucky to be born in this generation.
@@TasteMyBlade0 hell yea
Me back in 2012 when I was 11 😂. I'd litteraly record it on my shitty phone. The memories man 😩🔥.
Yes. You know wassup
I don't bla me you
Mr Game and Watch never got a title card and it still bothers me to this day.
Wait I never noticed that oh god wtf
As a game and watch main, same and it hurts
Me too
ive noticed that too omg
@@evanverplank7242 same
I also just wanted to say that, the cutscenes with Lucas are just sad af. I truly remember watching them as a kid, still not knowing who the heck he or Ness was, but knowing more of his backstory now and just knowing too that he is just a scared kid in this situation, just makes things a bit more sad for me, but i also do love how through the story, he clearly grows more and more, driving himself to find Wario so he can bring back the friend that helped him when he needed help the most
i ship them so hard
Low key, Kirby seems to be the main hero/ lucky hero in the whole storyline.
Ultimate he outruns the light, brawl he gets dededes timed release badge thingy as well as saves the princess you picked from ending up like wario AND he takes out the main cannon on the dark ship with a single flyby.... or through...
Kirby is an insatiable god of destructive power.... and cuddles
daniel puttre probably since the creator of smash also created kirby
daniel puttre Dont forget DeDeDe, without him everyone would be screwed
KiraKiraAna what about Sonic?
ThatArtistAnimator him too
@@rengokuscrunchytwattreats3045 eh his role of the story was just asspull
This story has zero dialogue, yet it was still easy to figure out what was happening.
Yeah
That's how you know that the story is good
10:33
25:52 31:46
34:38 10:52
14:41 30:51
41:06
Yeaj same i was so little when i played this game and i didnt even know english
@@Player-p4k bruh
36:42 Look at how badass Peach is here. There's a ginormous explosion behind her, and she's just STANDING THERE with her umbrella not moving a single bit. Peach isn't worried AT ALL! I'm 100% sure she just let's Bowser kidnap her because she probably just doesn't care.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Peach's Parasol work as a shield against projectiles in Mario games? Maybe that's why she feels safe?
Edit: Googled it, her Parasol is a magic item, allowing her to defend agains't enemies attacks and glide through the air.
Or maybe she feels sorry for Bowser
:D
This was the most anime like scene ever with Peach offering the tea and sheik is already drinking it while thinking “jsut go with it”
@@KonkeyDongkey It might also be the fact that every statue is actually their pose when you select them in the normal Smash mode. Luigi is an exception for some reason (after Dedede smacks him into oblivion)
If only Ultimate had such an intricate story mode with so many cutscenes :(
14:00 one of the greatest sword fight cutscenes in gaming history. Two of the most talented swordsmen dueling it out, only to find with a single attack that they are on the same side...
And On top of that, if you watch in slow motion, every attack is actually deflected, no shortcuts at all!
Calm Down
