Okay, my first review in over two years, where I’ve grown older and wiser. Smash Ultimate is possibly the best in the series. Every previous character EVER plus a handful of varied newcomers (including the clone-like-but-not-exactly Echo Fighters). Let’s go over my thoughts on this game in a nutshell: +As mentioned before, the roster largely consists of every fighter in Smash HISTORY. +The long-awaited Ridley and King K. Rool are part of the selection of newcomers, and they’re A BLAST to play. +We get Adventure Mode in the form of World of Light, where you constantly fight unique opponents with kinda-Sticker items called Spirits, which are PNG’s of characters across Nintendo’s history and then some with unique abilities. +Classic Mode has been revamped in a way; each fighter has a unique path that ends with a boss. Some fighters battle Marx from Kirby Super Star, others fight Rathalos from Monster Hunter, etc. +Some long-missing stages have returned, like Kongo Falls, Great Bay, and FOUNTAIN OF DREAMS, just to name a few out of over 100 stages! +The DLC characters so far are really fun! I am HYPED to see what Banjo’s like when he comes in the fall. +There are nearly 1,000 music tracks to play, including over 100 new remixes. Just take a listen to Gangplank Galleon, Divine Bloodlines, Guile’s Theme, Beneath the Mask, etc.! +Piranha Plant. Just Piranha Plant. -The AI is practically a Mary Sue sometimes. When it’s not a perfect little muffin who can read your mind, they just kinda…give up when recovering. -Some of the remixes are just…bad. Mostly it’s just remixes of songs that already had (much better) remixes in Smash 4 THAT ARE EVEN IN THE SAME GAME. -The graphic quality is kinda weird. Most of it looks beautiful, while others, like Bowser’s model, looks just butt-ugly. Bowser’s the only example I could think of off the top of my head, though. -Some of the victory themes are either cut short (like the Ice Climbers’) or changed needlessly, like Ness and Lucas’s. Theirs has to be the worst Smash victory theme I’ve heard in my life. -The Legend Spirits can go die in a hole and never come out (not that they’d be able, since they’re DEAD). -A lot of modes were cut because of WoL (Target Test/Smash, Home Run Contest, etc.). Stage Builder is back through an update, though, so maybe Home Run Contest will too? -The way Classic Mode ups its difficulty ruins the concept. The only you can do so quickly is to rush the stage and take little damage. Even when you do it PERFECTLY, in 5 seconds, you just get a .6 for your troubles. I don’t have an online subscription for the online matches, so I can’t really comment on THAT front. But simply put, despite its flaws, Smash Ultimate is possibly the best game in the SERIES!

As a kid, I used to enjoy this game a lot, especially the CG cutscenes. Looking back, it's not as bad as most people say it is. Overall, 7.1/10. +Relatively simple plot +Likable characters +Replay value +Creative level design -At-times jerky camera -Bad dialogue and voice acting -Comparatively outdated graphics (COMPARATIVELY outdated.)

This game is viable at best. The story drags on a bit, but you can make it go faster with 0 AP. As for the pulls...well, it's a bit **** compared to the Japanese version (WHICH I WISH I **** HAD. Sorry.), but most Medals are very useful if you how to use them. Most of the Raid Bosses are easy, too...with some excpeptions (I'm looking at YOU, Egg Master). Overall, this game isn't BAD or **** just gets a teensy bit repetitive after a while.

Kingdom Hearts 2.8 is nowhere near as bad as people describe it. It's a bit short, yes, but the experience is still worth the wait. Dream Drop Distance runs at a crisp 60fps, 0.2 has...well, great graphics (although the Sleeping Beauty level might need a bit of work.), and Back Cover, while nothing too new, was an exciting movie from start to finish. All in all, this game, along with 1.5+2.5 on the PS4, is virtually everything you can have while you wait for Kingdom Hearts 3.
