Super Smash Bros Ultimate - Did You Know Gaming? Feat. Scott The Woz

just a quick update before the video did you know gaming is giving away a Nintendo switch and three games check the link at the top of the description for more information [Music] did you know smash Ultimates project plan seems to be dated around December 16th 2015 hardcore fans may know the significance of this date as it was the same day as the final smash broadcast for smash 4 3 DS and Wii U Sakurai stated in an interview with Dan famine eco gamer that this was just a coincidence as he'd been working on the plan for quite some time before smash 4 3 DS and Wii U were completely finished secreto gaming magazine Famitsu that his next project was already decided and that he'd be taking a short break actual work on the next installment of Smash wouldn't pick up until Bayonetta and corn were released as DLC interestingly Sakurai considers smash ultimate to be these six entry in the series this is because while the roster is the same between the 3ds and Wii U games there are different stages and features make them unique speaking of rosters when SEC refers presented the idea of bringing back every character in Smash history he was met with complete and utter silence from his team saccharide was one of the few people outside of Nintendo who saw the switch in its early development stages he was surprised by how great the system screen became the advancement in screen quality from the early prototype stages meant that Smash ultimate could keep the same menu UI in both handheld or portable mode the project plan for Smash ultimate was quite ambitious and was over 200 pages long this is because Sakurai used a lot of graphics and simple text to convey his vision the top graphic represents what was in his project plan images a micro men in various poses for attacks and the bottom graphic represents the final version of that move with a little under three years of development time the team had quite a challenge while the number of newcomers in new original stages is the lowest it's ever been in the series ultimate saw an expanded roster of 11 new characters and several veteran characters who were missing from smash 4 3 DS and Wii U in addition nearly every single stage from smash history was brought back however there are 18 missing stages from smash history two stages from smash 64 5 from melee 4 from brawl 2 from smash 4 3 DS and 5 from smash 4 Wii U some of these stages were just replaced by newer versions for example flat zone and flat Zone two were combined into flat zone X however as of this video's debut we aren't sure why stages like pokey floats orbital gate assault or woolly world are missing in order to make his project planner reality Sakurai used two advantages first he decided to work with bandai namco again bandai namco developed both smash 4 3 DS and Wii U and we're already equipped to handle the massive undertaking of smash ultimate in addition Sakurai decided to directly build upon smash 4 Wii U in order to devote more time to new content there is some evidence of this within the game's files as the internal name for smash ultimate is crossed to the Wii U version was internally named cross sucker would send daily pictures to his team in order to share progress and to motivate them this is something he started during the development of Kid Icarus Uprising and it has continued since then even claims to have sent pictures during the weekends in a fem into column titled smashes special Sakurai spoke about how difficult making smash ultimate was Sakurai said for starters bringing back every fighter drastically increases the cost of development even something that looks like a simple port has a huge number of man-hours behind it moreover in the case of smash we can't simply create whatever we want I have to receive approval from the original creators of the characters and I need to reflect their feedback contractual agreements and other legal issues can also make development exceedingly difficult in reality it was quite a challenge to bring every fighter back and I apparently made it work frankly it almost didn't happen speaking of cut or missing content smash ultimate features a wealth of new additions that were cut from earlier smash games one of these additions is sue coupon as an assist trophy sue coupon was planned to be an item in melee but was cut due to complicated circumstances most likely copyright issues another piece of cut content from melee was the ditto pokeball ditto was finally realized in smash ultimate taking on the appearance of another fighter and joining the battle within smash ultimate itself there are three spirit categories that are unused these are blasts core jet force Gemini and Devils third it's unknown why these franchises are unused but it may be due to copyright or licensing issues while some information for the game is leaked out Sakurai and his team went out of their way to prevent any major leaks this included using a huge screen at e3 instead of paper materials many people within the Tendo themselves had no idea the game was under development reflecting on the e3 presentation Sakurai stated he could hear the cheers of the Nintendo employees as well while there were some minor leaks before Ultimates unveiling at e3 the leaks didn't get major traction making the concept of everyone is here a well kept secret to keep things from leaking the team decided to announce all the characters before the game's release however of role aspects of the game were leaked ahead of official announcements the first major leak was by a bandai namco employee who stated the studio was working on the title Nintendo also accidentally leaked the existence of Castlevania content and smash ultimate before the official Simon and Richter reveal by accidentally renaming the Galaga melody on youtube to bloody tears well oh it's fixed before the Castlevania reveal Laird many Internet spectators had already noticed the change in addition the game was leaked a few weeks before released due to stores in Mexico selling the game early this allowed hackers and data miners to gain access to the game before its official launch in terms of music smash Altima has an impressive amount of it the team used a new compression technique in order to fit all 850 tracks into the cart without this the price of smash ultimate would have risen severely or many songs would have had to been cut some of the game's tracks ended up being heavily altered or in some cases redacted entirely the beloved DK rap is missing verses for lanky cranky and chunky despite the song being used for lanky and chunky spirit battles fans have noticed this and started a campaign to restore the track called hash tag expands song on Twitter interestingly the Japanese vocalist for the game's main theme LifeFlight was only 17 years old when she was chosen for the role arena Koko was referred by ultimate composer Hideki Sakamoto after seeing her in an television singing contest Sakurai also wrote the lyrics to LifeFlight himself during the development of smash with 3ds and Wii U Nintendo ran the smash ballot to see which characters were most requested by fans for ultimate the team used these Balor results to help decide new characters the newcomers chosen from the ballot were king K rool Ridley and Simon and Richter Belmont Sakurai wanted to add a new third party universe into ultimate and thought castlevania was an ideal fit however he struggled with choosing a character and considered Alucard at one point he decided that Simon and Richter were better candidates in part because their whips are a conic to the series when deciding Ridley Sakurai and his team landed on the concept of pure evil this is evident not only through his moveset but his initial reveal trailer where he straight-up murders Megaman by stabbing him in the chest in center or was the only character whose inclusion was decided at a later point a spot was left open for a new Pokemon rep and after seeing the new Pokemon from Sun and Moon Sakurai felt he had two choices in sin Aurora or decidua after mulling it over Sakura decided if I with a wrestling motif would be interesting and decided on in cinah roar in cinah roar was voiced by own show ishizuka who also voiced Professor Oak in the Japanese Pokemon anime unfortunately ishizuka passed away in August before the character was revealed the creator of Bomberman show gene Mizuno also passed away before it was shown that Bomberman would make it into Smash as an assist trophy spirits mom was developed as a result of limitations set by Sakurai and the development team they wanted a single-player mode that could utilize the game's plethora of stages music and characters however they didn't want the mode to drain too much of the team's resources fighting quick battles themed after a variety of video game characters allowed the team to make a sizable single-player campaign without taking too much focus away from the core game it also allowed characters who wouldn't be playable in the game to have some representation one interesting tidbit about spirits is that a fan-made version of the masked man's spray from mother 3 was used in Smash Ultimates the spray was originally made by warp star X on deviantART the sprite was eventually changed in version 2.0 to be the actual spray from mother 3 smash ultimate surpassed the lifetime sales of every other smash game in Japan in less than five weeks and as of this video has sold over 12 million copies worldwide ultimate was also Charles Martin A's 100th voice actor credit the Chi mihn earned Martin a again his record for most voice credits in a video game the game also credits for smash players for their help with the game's development tomoyasu yamakawa renewed Ohio she knew you rocky and Messiah chicka moto were all credited for their help with testing and quality assurance when thinking of what's next for smash sakura is unsure he said that bringing back everyone is probably a one-time thing and trying to top smash Ultima will be something he'll need to address if he's asked to come back again however smash ultimate isn't finished yet there is still DLC to be made the production of which is underway the first two DLC characters have been announced piranha plant and Joker from persona 5 Joker's voice actor Xander mobis also serves as the announcer for smash ultimate as well as smash 4 3 DS and Wii U so not only is this the first time a smash announcer has also voiced a fighter it's also the first time an announcer

Hey ya'll

[u/Onkel_Kogoro]

That was some intrusive adverstisement.

[u/GuardMightGetNervous]

I'm so stoked for Scott! I love his videos, and I can only imagine how cool it was to be able to voice the video for this.

[u/Volerikan]

So is the difference between that fanmade and actual mother 3 sprite just one pixel? I looked at it for long enough and couldn’t find any other difference.

Edit: One on the helmet, and two miscolored pixels on the top

[u/BrandOfTheExalt]

I can't believe they got JonTron for this

[u/doctordonez]

Surprised this wasn’t a Madden 08 video...
