That makes sense. But Master Hand is getting old in Classic mode and all that, at least he wasn't the Final Boss of SSE. The one thing that confuses me is that the story doesn't tell just who the hell Tabuu is and why he's so evil and all that, or IF he's evil.

AWESOME REMIX!!!!!!!!!

Well, what if it worked out as if you had to attack a green flashing spot on part of his face or one of his faces (his background changes in the game a few times whileb fighting him).

DarkLink9393 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

That's what I'm saying. There's no specific spot where you could hit Giygas in the Earthbound, but it didn't matter because it was an RPG and all you had to do was choose what to do. They'd be able to change him a little so he'd be fitting, just like they did with some of the bosses in Brawl. That is, if they ever do.

I'm sure they could, but it's just as well that the Pokey statue didn't act it's source out, because there is no way anyone would put up with having to chip away a million hitpoints. Anyone sane, at least.

DarkLink9393 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

Well, I'm pretty sure they could find a way to put him in somehow. I mean, they've had bosses that really didn't COMPLETELY act like the originals. Like take the King Statue for example. It was impossible to run from it at all in Earthbound 2/Mother 3, but that entire boss battle (if you could even call it that) was running away from it. I'm pretty sure they'd be able to change Giygas to fit as an SSB boss.

FretsawOrion (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

Meh. I guess I'm just overthinking this.

DarkLink9393 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

Giygas would have the same exact look as the game, except that he wouldn't be pixelated. Why is it even a question what he'd look like? He'd cover the entire stage. You'd have to find certain spots where you could hit him (since the SSB games aren't RPGs, you can't just choose to attack something). He would attack with red rings and they'd do different things (like cause a lot of damage or use PK Thunder). It's supposed to be a difficult boss.

FretsawOrion (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

Plus, I imagine it'd be difficult to put him in as a boss. The Devil's machine, I can see in a Smash game somewhere. But as for Giygas himself... What would he look like? Part of the reason the original fight is that frightening is because it's difficult to nail down exactly what he's supposed to look like, and even when you can, it's in brief glimpses. More importantly, how would the characters fight him if his physical form is indeterminate?

DarkLink9393 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

Well, at least Tabuu has one of his attacks. I'm pretty surprised that it's that annoying sudden death ring, though. Then again, I'm pretty surprised that they had those two Earthbound 2/Mother 3 bosses in there. Now all that's left is to add Ninten in the next SSB game (the Masked Man would also be a great character too).
