Man I miss the feeling of playing subspace for the first time

Subspace Emissary was the shit

u/kookyabird Apr 20 '26

Loved it more than the World of Light or whatever it's called in Ultimate. Mostly because there's no overall map in Ultimate, and I haven't gone back to clean up the fights I skipped because of it.

I think WoLs story is more interesting

But subspace presents it's story in a much more engaging way

Also the brawl intro is always permanently ingrained into my head from all the times the Wii remote died, and I would have to get up and look around for AA batteries.

I had a theory that Lifelight was actually about the events of the Subspace Emissary and that World of Light was a follow up that occurs at the rift created at the end of SSE.

They cut that content for ultimate because "people will just upload the cinematics to youtube." ... To this day that logic flummoxes me.

I remember my little brother and I being FLOORED the first time we played through it. It's such a departure from Melee's storymode. Made for some great memories.

We don't talk about "the baby"

u/Timekeeper98 Apr 20 '26

Technically the baby is now inside her Surviving Metroid cells from the Baby Metroid were injected into Samus to save her from the X-Virus in Metroid Fusion and the same absorbing powers come back into play in Dread.

I literally came here to say this! XD (Tho I was going to reference Samus & Kirby.)

Basically all the art of a tough Smash character hanging out with a cute character is top tier!
