With 96 tracks in all after the Booster Course Pass has finished. There's so many cups in the game already. But I thought it'd be fun to make a thread for perhaps making your own personal cups. The default is of course 4 tracks, but don't feel restricted if there's more that fit that sort of...

The Booster Course pass is now finished! You can now vote for all your favorites! I think my favorite from the final pack was DK Mountain

Yeah when they used that music it made me think at first they were remaking both games in one package at first. But unless this is a Bayonetta 2 situation where purchasing some versions of the Thousand Year Door remake also gets you a code for the first game. They probably would have titled this...

I've added the Wave 5 courses to the Poll. Unlike most of the others, I didn't have a huge favorite but that didn't mean I hate this wave or anything. I think my favorite part of this round is just them adding Kamek as a character, just based on how he's been screwed out of it since Mario Kart 64.

Lucario and Corrin are now covered, and thus the list is complete! Once again a big thank you to everyone who voted and hope you enjoyed seeing the list grow overtime. I even included how each game's pool of characters would look by themselves with their ranking number in the full list. All...

TERRY Fighter Number: 74 Fighter Group: Ultimate Newcomers/Fighter’s Pass 1 Franchise: King of Fighters Game of Origin: Fatal Fury: King of Fighters (Arcade, 1991 (US/EU/JP) It’d be disingenuous of me to say that I knew everything about every franchise into Smash. While I did go on this...

I have now added the Wave 4 courses to the poll. As for my favorites from this wave, I'd say it'd be the new Yoshi's Island track as well as Waluigi Stadium ^^

JUST A QUICK HEADS-UP I will be delaying Roy and Richter's coverage in the Shroom to April, and thus also move the finale to May. A power outage in the last week of February plus the loss of Wi-Fi just a few days killed many days I wanted to be productive in enough to meet the deadline for this...
