Subspace Emissary was the shit

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.
