Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl Predictions
Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl is a new platform fighting game featuring characters from Nickelodeon's history. Here I try to make a prediction roster... which is very hard to do. I eventually dialed the roster down to 35 characters which is quite huge for a first fighting game (for reference, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale only has 24 characters).
I made my choices based on various elements.
- How important is the show in Nick's history/present?
- Have they been featured in previous crossover games?
- The Nicktoons Unite! series, the most ambitious crossover games,
- the recent Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 with which the game shares the same publisher,
- and the online Super Brawl series which this game is a spiritual successor to.

Smultimate Current Predictions (August2018)
Like, this is my current prediction for the game, albeit it probably already pushing the limit of newcomers. While they also are characters I hope that will get in, they are also based on hints, leaks and rumors.
- Bandana Dee is my top priority. Seeing that Kirby is still Sakurai's baby and it only has three reps compared to for example Metroid which now has four reps. And besides Bandana Dee has been a main character of the series ever since Return to Dreamland, he's important.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Final Smashes
Let's start with me saying that I love the new Final Smashes, quicker, strong and straight to the point (and I am a sucker for cinematics).
The only complaints I have is that Jigglypuff still has the same Final Smash which doesn't fit her (as it isn't even a move) and easily avoidable. Ice Climbers and Bowser Jr. could've been upgraded a bit as well (Iceberg could've been upgraded better).
Donkey Kong's new Final Smash is cool and all, referencing how you defeat a boss in the new games. However it is very similar to that of Little Mac, and I rather would've seen a cinematic in which he pulls the opponents into 25m and throws a barrel at high speed at them. But nothing that can be changed here.
Now the character that have a transformation Fina…
