Is there anything more mindlessly consumerist than having a Smash collection? A 64-inspired one, I get that but fucking Ultimate? The in-game roster looks cluttered and corporate as is but needing to dedicate space in your house for a physical replica of it? Not a single person that does this actually loves each IP's characters that much. Pic related is not the worst example though as you can find greater visual overload at Reddit.

Yeah, I have a smash collection of my own but it was basically built upon stuff I casually bought over the years, I could not care less for adding fire emblem or splatoon shit or needing a fucking Kazuya mishima or Fatal Fury Guy. I rather add videogames characters that would fit the theme like Chun li or knuckles than buying characters from ips I don't care for

It fits anthony customs a lot, he only know these characters from a wiki.

As someone who failed a Marvel Vs Capcom collection back in the Toybiz days, a Smash collection was a better stroke of luck since companies just happened to make Mega Man and such before even being announced, and then we got good Sonic toys later.
BUT i still wont buy everything. I love P4 and MGS, but I dont really want toys of them. Also Steve is the worst addition to the roster ever. I still want Ridley, K. Rool and a proper Ganondorf though

Popular game, especially compared to all the boomer slop in your image

Minecraft is hardly established as a Nintendo property compared to the others, especially since it was just one game. Also Steve is a setup fighter, which means he'll spend most times crafting a strong item while being attacked directly

Getting literally everyone to just have everyone certainly is. However putting together a bunch of one of videogame figures in the form of a smash set up is decent way to have some cohesion. Like imagine you have a Link, a Samus, a Megaman, Ryu and you like those series but don't have anyone else from those series. Throw in like a Mario and Kirby and you now have something that sort of cohesive with a bunch of unrelated video game figures.

Funny you say this because I recently started a Smash display. Goodsmile has been reissuing a lot of their rarer smash characters over the past year.

pacman is capcom, pokemon is gamefreak, kirby is hal soft, sonic is sega, banjo is rareware, shut the fuck up boomer

why do americans need to adhere to a strict guideline on what childrens toys can be put next to each other is this a mental illness?

Roster/Team building it's a collectionism classic what the fuck are you on.

Because we're not children who just throw a bunch of nonsense together with no rhyme or reason. Having a cohesive theme that makes sense to you is what gives each toy a purpose as opposed to them being clutter.

Ironically, this is the theme of Smash Bros.

Pacman has a better recognition of being a Nintendo game than other platforms, Banjo has 2 N64 and 2 GBA games, Sonic's been Nintendo exclusive more times than being 3P since the Dreamcast died. Kirby and Pokemon? You know nothing about video games

technically by the time Steve was released in October 2020 there'd been three distinct Minecraft games released on the Switch(Minecraft, Story Mode, and Dungeons) so I'd say the franchise was quite established on Nintendo by that point(indeed of the five distinct Minecraft games that have been released as of this post, only one hasn't seen a Switch port, that being the discontinued Minecraft Earth)

That's the theme of Ultimate. The rosters before it weren't perfect but most of the additions added to the series had some logic to it from beginning with the main heroes (64) to villains (Melee) to the next more important characters to each IP besides the main heroes (Brawl) while also adding reps to debuting IPs in general (Ice Climbers and Fire Emblem for Melee, Pikmin and Kid Icarus for Brawl, etc.)
>>
>>11753249
No I mean the game since N64 has had the theme of a disembodied hand getting a bunch of unrelated toys and making them fight.
>>
Why they never made a Pyra figma is beyond me

>>11753136
This. I have more of a vidya shelf than a Smash shelf, even though a good portion of the characters are in Smash. I just collect characters from games I really enjoy. So yeah I have Mario, Link, Samus, and Kirby but I also have Gordon Freeman, Master Chief, Doomguy, and Geralt of Rivia up there too.

>(Minecraft, Story Mode, and Dungeons)
these werent even exclusive. In fact, Minecraft was mostly PC/mobile until the Switch came out.

Neither was FF7 relative to other FF games and they still double dipped before even considering other titles.
I know it's the most popular, but we're talking about Steve here after all.

Final Fantasy was still as much a Nintendo IP. Certainly not 7, but various orthers were. Same goes for DQ

Kek and true
