@@juanb2363 Before people could reliably look up stuff on the internet, unlocking Sonic in Melee was a popular playground rumor often tied to some really difficult task like getting 20 KOs in Cruel Smash.
@sonicandgodzillafan This was back in ye olden days of the internet, too. Pre-TH-cam, and most people had dialup or VERY early broadband. People's sources were mostly message boards, text guides on GameFAQs, and word of mouth from friends. Rumors of hidden things in game like this could really carry for a while since people didn't have ways to provide video proof easily.
3:02 - "This move is a reflector?" THIS LINE RIGHT THERE! XD Its hilarious how this move is used in EVERY SINGLE OTHER WAY, besides its designed purpose... to reflect.
@@Haymdahl So basically there's this company that makes April fools magazines and one day they made one that makes it sound like sonic is in the game. It had EVERYONE FOOLED. It also say that you need at least 20 K.Os in cruel smash to unlock sonic and tails.
a lot of people forget but the characters atacks are suposed to reflect they in game movements, so fox move set is based on his arwing, the balster is suposed to represent the spaceship shoots, the shine is suposed to represent the ''barrell roll'' (and how op this is even in star fox games), the ''fire fox'' are suposed to represent the arwing ''boost'', the ''floating'' is suposed to represent the arwing brakes, and the ''flash'' the arwing fly, so tecnically all fox movements are related to flying because of the arwing and that's make him op because well, spaceships fly so he must fly a little either lol!
Finally we have sakurai designing the best character from each game: kirby (smash 64), fox (melee), meta knight (brawl), bayonetta/cloud (smash 4), and last but not least steve (ultimate).
I find it funny that I was watching a Smash Iceberg where one of the entries mentions a rumor where you can unlock Sonic by defeating 20 enemies in Cruel Smash and then I watch this video. What a weird coincidence lol
I know this video is mostly in jest, but I do want to clarify certain points about Fox and Melee here since this video attracts a wider reach: -Fox is NOT a meta-centralizing character in the same vain as Meta-Knight in Brawl or Bayonetta in 4. He's only 26% of all other characters in top 100 (compared to Meta-Knight's 75%), and a solo-mained Fox hasn't dominated since 2017 (Cody Schwab's pretty close, but he's deep in a meta with a variety of mains in the top 10). -Fox is NO LONGER in a tier of his own (the official tier list was updated 3 years ago). Some even argue that he might not deserve to be considered best character because “playing to his full potential” is just not humanly possible (just look at Hax) and that rushdown tactics stopped being popular. -Final Destination is usually a bad stage for Fox due to platforms helping to reduce his landing time. -Fox was relatively unchanged coming from 64, save for a few minor tweaks. Jumping out of reflector was just THAT good. -“Shine” is not an official nickname for the reflector. -There's a difference between “Invincible” and “Invisible”. The reflector's 1 frame of Intangibility makes him “Invisible”. -Melee was developed in 13 months, meaning that decisions like cloning characters were made to save on development time and stress.
@@legrandliseurtri7495 Invincibility (in Smash terms) means that your hurtbox is immune to damage and knockback. You can still be hit, therefore subject to hit lag, but is otherwise meaningless. Intangibility means you can't be touched at all, like a ghost.
And for his upsmash, he does a spindash, except he spins backwards only once. And for the down b, he does a spindash that's stationary and reflects projectiles. And the side b is a spindash without the spin.
It’s supposed to reflect projectiles!
Well now it can reflect people
People can also be projectiles if you throw them hard enough lol
introverts: "Is it possible to learn this power?"
For his neutral B, He wields a gun. They'll never see it coming.
@@darkheartplays007it’s a persona reference, it’s the “you’ll never see it coming” song
@@darkheartplays007how did I mess that up.

Caught me off guard, XDDD
Nintendo broke so hard his italian showed.

3:46
“HOW IS THAT FAIR WHEN HE GETS TWO MORE?”
“Because 3 is an odd number. Just like one.”
🤣🤣🤣
WHAT KINDA LOGIC IS THAT??
Sakurais VISION is getting clearer by the day
“To make things fair” is when you know he’ll not make things fair

Plot twist: Sakurai when designing clone characters in melee.
"You want me to design some dog with a jacket?" Bro violated Fox💀💀💀💀
Lol💀
"What? No, dude. That's Fox!"
"Oh! I see. So what's this fox's name?"
"Fox."
XD
As soon as they said Fox, I knew we were in for a treat.
“Geez, Sakurai. I don’t know what could be more broken than Fox.”
“Well, how about, *Two Foxes?*”
*Falco*
“It’s a bird.”
@Superemie401”It’s a Plane”
Oh yeah this is happening 4:29
That was just *Chef's kiss* a beautiful reference. Kids nowdays don't know about it
@@faby6515 I can see you slobbering all over yourself as you wrote this. Nah we get it you are just too much of a dimwit to get that we get it
@@faby6515 I never grew up with Melee because I wasn't even born back them but I still understand the reference.
@@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies same
@@faby6515 Cruel Smash was also in SSBB but I don't know what it unlocked previously
3:22 Nintendo with an Italian accent is something I wasn't expecting 💀
His inner Mario came out
0:22 dog with a jacket got me rolling on the floor 😂
love sonic reference "sound like somebody didn't get 20 k.o in cruel smash"
I don't get the reference.

I drop everything for this guys uploads Hahah
MY GOATTT 🙌🙌🙌
I love how half this video is about the down special. The move is just that borken it could probably handle the video all by itself.
Borken
...fuck it, I'm not fixing it.
"HIYAAAH!!!" - 🦊
3:56
3:21 sakurai being so absurd that even mario had to step in
"This game is jam packed with all kinds of different characters"
proceeds to mention the original character and their clone
2:05 Danny Phantom? 😂
3:28
Sakurai: We’ll just give him another recover tool
Nintendo: 2 recovery moves?
Sakurai: 2? Don’t you mean 3?
Nintendo: *WHAT DO YOU MEAN 3?*
Oh we are so back!!!!!!
3:22 😂 Mario Accent is coming.
When Nintendo called my main Mario 2 be like:
👹
4:21 love the reference LOL
Same lol 😂
The Year is 20xx, where everyone mains Fox and only play with no items, Fox only, Final Destination
I wonder how sukurai designed kirby and jigglypuff
The Kirby video is literally linked at the end of the vid lol
In melee tho

Common Melee sound effects: WOAAHHH MISSION COMPLETE HAUAGH COME ON HA HIYAH
Honey! A new UR2SLOW video dropped!
Finally we have sakurai designing the best character from each game: kirby (smash 64), fox (melee), meta knight (brawl), bayonetta/cloud (smash 4), and last but not least steve (ultimate).
I love how he says "seems like it" like he didn't design it himself.
Reminds me of the twitter melee player that forgot Fox’s reflector reflects.
"I want fox but to be thic"
-Sukurai.
Meta gonna be talking bout this one for years.
0:17 I thought he was about to say “my *vision* “
"Why would you make 3 out of 4 of his specials recovery moves?!"
Meta Knight: KNOW MY POWER!
Sakurai when designing terry i need him mashing buttons to use the are you ok move
Naw Nintendo Was So Flabbergasted He Turned Into Mario
The best part frame 1 spike killed me 💀💀💀2:48
Fr Though
The music and then Fox just saying, “Hah” 💀🤣
LMAO!!! Another great video I am every excited to see. I am excitedly waiting for the DLCs. COMPILATION TIME!!! We need more people reacting to these!
0:11 I guess marth 3 is Lucina
you know you're about to hear the most unbalanced and broken thing ever when sakurai hits you with the, "to make things fair"
I find it funny that I was watching a Smash Iceberg where one of the entries mentions a rumor where you can unlock Sonic by defeating 20 enemies in Cruel Smash and then I watch this video. What a weird coincidence lol
0:49 I knew it😂
How convenient that right when I remember this series exists, he uploads again
“To make things fair” he says wow
This is exactly what i needed to get me out of a slump. Always appreciate your content
Hell yeah, these videos are super funny and I have been waiting for it.
happy feet
wombo combo
Yo I can't wait for more Melee designing videos to come out.
I was waiting for this.
Same man
I understand why the Reflector makes Fox float. It reflects the air.
I love how you’re putting more energy into nintendo
Everytime a video drops that sakuria making a character I always watch it
Nintendo got so much shocked he changed of nationality from American to Italian.
That cruel smash line unlocked a core memory
holy shit I love this series so much, these just get better and better!
This is unironically literally every melee player ever
W vids bro I been waiting for dis
Take a shot whenever Sakurai says “to make things fair”
best youtuber 100%. makes my day every time!
*3:13* well you can say "its on fox"

you must be really fun at parties
@@bloodofphantoms This video is fine. And my comment is not meant to be an “um actually” to that, just a side note.
What's the functional difference between invincibility and intangibility.
@@legrandliseurtri7495 Invincibility (in Smash terms) means that your hurtbox is immune to damage and knockback. You can still be hit, therefore subject to hit lag, but is otherwise meaningless.

I LOVE FOX IN MELEE FAYAAAAH
0:32 I can't tell if Sakurai is being sarcastic or not... 😅
0:41 I got some bad news for the future
That sonic unlockable at the end. Good job guys.
3:22 Please, UR2SLOW, I want this to stay. Nintendo gets so mad that he goes full Italian.
3:14 You’ll float too!🦊🤡😈👹
as a real life fox, I approve this video
" isnt sonic the fastest ? "
sakurai definitely know the future
Missed opportunity to call Luigi Mario 3.
20KOs in Cruel Smash, sounds legit.
I like how energetic he sounds in melee yet he sounds dry in ultimate, like he is just tired
And for his upsmash, he does a spindash, except he spins backwards only once.
And for the down b, he does a spindash that's stationary and reflects projectiles.
And the side b is a spindash without the spin.
Finally!!, a Super Smash Brothers Melee video!!! pls do more of this game.
The only thing that made me click faster to this video is Fox’s shine.
Frame 1 invincible spike is hilarious 😭😭 down B you are an ICON
Yes! It finally happened!
The reference with the sonic rumor at the end though
Sakurai was so happy sonic was in the game because when he appeared in brawl, it killed his genius creativity. It all comes together
I look forward to the day we're we have a video for every character
Fox: I can walk through walls disappear and fly. I’m much more better than the other guy.
We need a Multiversus video
I love how Nintendo gets progressively more and more unhinged with Sakurai's decisions in each episode.
He turns into the human torch, with only 6 frames of landing lag!
Sakurai's logic in giving Fox 3 recovery tools is about as creatively genius as Terrance Howard's 1x1=2 theory
2:00 "HE'S INVINCIBLE!?"
"No, i just made so that he can't take damage."
"Thats called being-"
*Invincible Title Card*
"Which browser do you use?"
"HIIYAAA!"
The amount of references in this video makes my brain hurt. And my sides😭
Love that half of the video is about shine entirely.
Bro reflected air and started floating
I want 5 of what Sakurai was smoking while making melee fox
Sooo, in order to make things fair
I love how 2/3 of the video only covers the shine
I want him to go back to making multiversus videos, cause it’s back baby
Someone send this to Nairo and Light lol
