Pac-Man’s death sound effect should’ve been added. It’s MUCH more iconic than Megaman’s

[yobin]

Dark Pit's wings DO glow with Viridi's colours: green at full speed, then blue as he slows down, and then red when he's stopping, as opposed to Pit's glowing blue at full speed, yellow when slowing down, and red when stopping. In fact I'm pretty sure that the entire point of canonising Dark Pit's alliance with Viridi was to enable this.

You know how Mario always makes everyone lose coins with his up B? Well i've always thought that Sonic should lose rings instead, it would be a nice little detail

[MegAmi]

Here's one I've had for a while:
Since the Fire Mario alt was cut to make room for Wedding Mario, I think it would've been cool if Mario's final smash had him temporarily turn into Fire Mario while he unleashes his fire spiral thing, even if it's only for a couple seconds. Would've made it look a bit more appealing.

I am still salty pacman at no point makes his iconic "errerrerrerr woink woink" noise. It is the perfect star-ko sound for him.

[hanshysher]

They should put a Steve has died text in the screen whenever he dies, just like in minecraft.

[YuQissu]

When Sonic loses a stock he loses rings simple as that.

[crispyrange]

“Moving on, we have Link, Link, and Link. Let’s talk about Link first before we get to Link and Link”

Spoken like a true gamer

[reritheguy]

If Steve gets Star KO'd it should say "Steve fell from a high place". If they don't put that in, we riot.

[Switcheroo]

The monado not changing colour is a missed opportunity but having the coloured aura around Shulk is obviously for gameplay purposes, to tell the player what art Shulk is in at a quick glance

[melaninnrice]

Here's another thing that Smash fumbled the bag with: having Byleth's crit animation as the FS

[BlitzzSolar]

#1 missed opportunities in smash, giving sonic a cool moveset

[evo]

Okay that idea with the special attack backgrounds is actually so incredible. That would add even more personality and charm to the game.

[tattersthebat]

"Morgana is a cat-"

Morgana: "Looking w r o n g, Joker!"

[H_RZ]

Mewtwo not having his armor from the first movie as an alt.

[pizzawonderer]

They should've added Mario's crawling animation from super Mario 64

[abashedalice]

The biggest missed opportunity is Pokefloats not being in the game.

[shrekfather]

If young link had the masks that would be fire.

[die-sas]

Missed opportunity: pacman makes a death sound when star KO'd

[kestrel]

Ganondorf
That's like 90% of all of smashes missed opportunities right there

I Kinda forgot about sonic and FF rep... welp now we have sephiroth and more than 2 songs so thats good to see!
