I Finally 100% Smash Ultimate after 3,000 hours. Sort of... 

THIS IS THE GUY WHO DIDNT KNOW WHO SEPHIROTH WAS DURING HIS REVEAL

33:59 Sakurai hates Daisy confirmed.

Seeing this made me realize that there is so much dedication that can be put in a single video game. Props to you for 100 percenting this!

The best part is this is now TWO things Nick can hold over brent's head in smash.

A great way to test your friendship with someone is to get 9.9 with every character in classic doubles

That face of the realisation at 36:47 is so fricking funny

Nick setting up a Daisy team on the tourney mode, and having NONE of them win against any other CPU (besides herself) is both funny and sad 31/32 Daisy CPUs and the one ZSS wins, that's crazy

The 100% list is genuinely crazy, i can't believe there are some people who have the dedication to fully 100% the game, props to you dude!

As someone who attempted to get 9.9 with every character, I legitimately doubted whether or not mewtos and byleths were humanly possible

aint NO way this guy actually 100% the game. my lordie lord this guy is HIM

As someone who also beat Classic Mode 9.9 with every character, boy did I feel good hearing about what a nightmare some of these characters can be. I would like to also give a special shoutout to Byleth for me personally. The last 2 rounds are absolute hell to get through. The Corrins are blood and basically require cheese and the 3 house leaders can screw you over if you're not careful. Also Hero's specifically cause of that Charizard. If you are at like 50% or low mana, that giant Charizard basically has a free 2 shot for any mistakes you might make.

Nick loves ultimate so much that he dedicated to go through the pain of 100% this game, it's so bad that it's not even worth it for the achievement itself. For the content tho? WE FLEX.

There's still another condition I can think of and it's _beating_ every spirit. You can also obtain spirits by purchasing them or getting them randomly in solo modes, but if you look in the upper left corner of a spirit battle menu, the game actually specifically tracks which spirit _battles_ you've completed. I don't think there's any way to know which ones you have missing other than randomly encountering them on the spirit board (I'm not sure whether the spirit collection refights are the same thing) but that is still something to complete.

15:27 "But I'm not lucky" *Insert Hidden Block*

0:27 beside the Elite Smash part, I can proudly (or maybe ashamedly depending on how you look at it) say that I have done all of those things

All spirit to level 99?

5:14 this is literally anakin killing the younglings

Now do spiritless and skilltreeless Dr.Wily💀💀💀. I'd watch the whole stream series

As a certain Announcer would say: CONGRATULATIONS! 🎉

35:35 YO IS THAT KING OF SKILL I SEE?!?!?!

i have nothing but respect that ya did all this good lord

As someone else who beat every Classic Mode 9.9, watching you play through and complain about some of them was incredibly cathartic lol

16:13 you know u can cancel it, right?

In the spirit collection, you can refight spirit you already own. When you do so, you gain a score depending on the spirits you used. To have the highest score, you need to beat a spirit without any spirit equipped (and no skill tree either since you're not in WoL) . The game even track your combined score, at 35:17 you can see you have 7300 points. So yeah you still have that to do. And yes it's possible, my friend did it on his save, and I also did it on my save, but in co-op with my friend. Which is actually harder because every spirit gain hyper armor in co-op, making a lot of cheese strats useless.

16:43 THATS MY BOI THE PRESCRIBER

The amount of classic you did in one try is genuinely INSANE. The amount of times I get hit like twice or one of them runs away and makes the fight go on too long and I end up getting a 0.7 on a crucial stage only to end up at 9.8 overall, nick popped tf off.

5:33 "Editor cover up me selling the fight with a montage of me winning"

As a spirit mode enjoyer, i am close to 100% the game, only having elite smash left, and, something i added as my goal, to have 999 of all spiritsnack, only having 200 left of small snacks

For the record, now there are 1528 spirits in Smash

The game just removed all of Nick's luck for the Daisy tournies 😂

Seeing him go to the WOL shop for the fighter spirits instead of the main shop physically hurt me for about five minutes 💀

4:44 Nick: We obtained the “penguin” Wait so you know obtained yourself?🧐🤨🤔

My completionist brain couldn’t beat World of Light without 100% it, so it’s crazy it took you this long😂

SSBU is a 60€ music collection with a free fighting game attached

Fighting a Kirby with the rng to get TWO power stars to avoid KO should be its own achievement

Haven't finished the video yet, but what I'm missing on your list is getting the perfect score in the spirit list, which can only be achieved by beating every spirit fight there without having any spirits equipped. Good luck! I promise it's doable, just tedious.

deathless true final boss is literally free with autoheal and lifesteal but you just had to destroy your dignity with very easy mode

36:06 YOU PICK MII SWOOOOOORDFIGHTER

BREAKING NEWS: Smash player plays Super Smash Bros for the first time ever

I'm shocked Nick never 100% World of Light. That is literally the first thing I ever did in the game lol

That ganodorf montage needs an ellipse warning. nicks just too good with the sticks!

Now idk who my favourite Crasher is anymore because..... i like them all.

Funny casually I got all the Spirits so far 1528, beat world of light, all classic mode with all characters and all achievements I'm just grinding getting all the main spirits to 99 have one awake and unwaken one as well

Little mac, Isabelle, falco and the others waiting for more than 2 years to be saved

Byleth is hands down one of the hardest classic modes to beat. It’s just insane how difficult it is to win some Of these frights with the percentage hp

I've done this too and there's only one tiny problem: they keep adding spirit from new games, so I think you can truly 100% the game when the new smash game will be out

That 16:41 clip has to be the best Dr Mario combo video!

Yo Tam! There’s some clean ass edits in this video! Let’s go, boy!!! And Shavi! God speed on tackling the hours long footage scour! 😂 thank you for your sanity! Great video, Nick! This is such a wild thing to take on 😂 I would have given up in WOL just from being lazy 😅😊

I like how the 3 day reveal is meant to be this huge thing when he has a world record for doing exactly that lmao

Since I saw that tweet you posted about 100% all runs in classic mode I was waiting for this video let's goooo

Well, can't wait till the 3 day long VOD of Nick just playing Super Self Destruct Bros Ultimate releases. I'll be honest I wish I'd the balls to do this

10:52 "If you have your right stick set to Smash, get some help" -Failboat

Getting Daisy against Galeem was Fate! Also of course plowing through the Finale with Lucina! xD Huge congrats to that dedication there!^^

2:20 this was so freaking funny with the star😂

2:10 Vernias just out here trolling Nick in spirit (no pun intended).

32:47 holy moly i'm dying over here

Hey. You forgot about two.... Getting every style learnt on every spirit. And rebeating every spirits.

Im only missing a few 9.9s and about 300 spirit refights (without spirits) to finally 100% the game. Congrats on this achievement

Ending a video with The Whims of Fate is a cherry on top after this gem

I dont think you want to know this, but there's also defeating every single spirit battle in the collection tab completely spiritless and without boosts as that gives you the max score, and there are some very hard ones like the 13 centinels. Still, very awesome.

Finally, someone who has become familiar with the pain of trying to max all classic modes. There are so many that definitely were not playtested for fun.

7:19 I was like that Nick. I am still missing that .33% Thank you for showing me.

20:20 it was in this moment I had lost faith… my child shall never be disrespected

What I learned from this video is that Nick "Doesn't tech those."

Wow, 3000 hours is insane! 😳 I bet you could speedrun a nap at this point too, lol. But seriously, the dedication is next level! Can't wait to see what your next challenge is! 🎮

Shoutouts to the editor for the music choice in this, INCREDIBLY based

dang can't beleave you 100%ed this game i foght i whold never see it till now good job big fan

I did all the spirits without using spirits in the collection menu (since it gives you ‘score’) but I draw the line at getting everyone into elite smash, that is a skill level or two above me :( Kudos to you on that

I love that Nick made up a rule he had already completed before even making up the rule. I agree all in Elite smash should be part of 100% Smash Ultimate. it's just funny!

The dedication needed for this is actually insane

33:33 i knew about this shop because i wanted the mii fighter costumes im ngl 💀

I 100% Smash Ultimate myself recently by getting: All 89 fighters, 124 achievements, 140 Mii costumes, 1,068 music tracks, 1,528 spirits, and complete World of Light twice (New Game and New Game+). My completion was different and it was worth it. From a Smash Ultimate completionist to another, congrats.

Congratulations on 100%ing the game! The absolute dedication to doing this is insane!

Watching all the Daisyies loose was both the funniest and saddest thing ever

Nick not knowing how to get the other fighter spirits id hilarious

Feel like they could've definetely added Piranha Plant to work with Ivysaur for Greninja's route in one of the updates

I haven't done all of that, but I've got all the spirits. But with a game like Smash Bros, can you truly 100% it? Also I got all achievements without the hammer, it's stupid that there's no big reward for completing them all

I love your content nick. Once I hit around 5K hours I had this idea. Luckily I already did all spirits, 100% WOL and 9.9 on all. Thank you for letting me know I’m not alone on wanting this.

Petition for Nick to trick one of his friends into getting all the milestones by challenging them to try to beat his world record on his Switch

Bro I wouldn't even be surprised if you went and got all the milestones anyway just for that sense of satisfaction, and honestly I wouldn't even blame you

At least a Mii Sword Fighter spirit was *your* last spirit. I had to wait months for this rare spirit that was one of last in the entire game. I forgot the name, but it was three starter pokemon for the new game.

Another banger video from my favorite Daisy main ❤ thank you for the amazing content as always Nick!

This is my favorite game of all time. I finally 100%d it too about a month ago.

The dedication pf Nick to pull this off is too good… and kinda stupid… good job anyway!

The things content creators do to make videos. At some point, you have to just respect the mad grind and dedication they have.

To make it more 100% you could get ALL spirits in your inventory while being level 99 (unevolved and evolved, so you also have to do the story mode for 2 times) and then also refight every spirit in the collection tab WHILE HAVING NO SPIRITS for the maximum points

29:27 missed opportunity to put in the grandma screaming clip

Don't worry about the milestones. Not even Melee 100% runs take them into consideration since Melee has one for ONE MILLION versus matches. The text reading "1,000,000 VS. mode matches! Never thought you'd see this!" basically as a confession that the devs thought no one would ever realistically see it. Smash Devs are nuts when it comes to "milestones" and set unrealistic goals.

One thing that I endeavor to do when I play (I hardly claim to have 100%-ed it by anyone's standards, and I realize that what I'm about to suggest is way beyond what anyone should reasonably expect, but I'm going for it whenever I pick up the game) is having all the spirits that can train in dojos learn every style. Like, they can only have one style at a time, and then to teach them another style you have to take them to slowbro to have them forget their current style. But if they've learned it in the past then sending them back to that dojo means that they instantly remember the style, so you can have a spirit "know" every style, even if they only can use one. Also I'm going for a spirit living dex, so for spirits that enhance into something else I want both the enhanced version and the unenhanced version. All spirits at max level, of course. Eventually a goal would be that in addition to all my spirits knowing every style I would have multiple copies so that I have a version with each style active at all times (as well as a copy with no style active of course). Again, that's beyond 100%, and I only want to do that because that's just the weird kind of neurodivergent person I am. But at present I don't even have a full collection of spirits, and I'm bad enough at the game that I fear I may never get 9.9 classic mode scores for everybody (but it is on my list of "maybe someday if I have the time and am in the mood for smash bros"). But, thought I'd mention some of the additional goals one could set for oneself with spirits. (I also want to have at least 1 core of every spirit that can be turned into one, and for those used for summons I want enough copies of their cores that I could potentially summon 1 of everything summonable in a single go without having to dismiss anything more and still be left with exactly 1 of every spirit core. But again, these are long term "ideal complete save file" goals, not things I actually expect to achieve.)

This is a huge accomplishment, huge respect. After years of playing this

My geometry dash corrupted mind going crazy at 1:48

Nick Can't Tech: The Movie

Ok hear me out. George, Steven, Esteban, LL Cool J, and Butch all in one video either for a competition or a challenge.

As someone who's also recently done this (minus the Elite Smash part, but plus the Milestones you can get) I can confirm that Dark Samus's Classic Mode route is a living nightmare. And so is Byleth's route which I don't think is in this video?

"she's [Daisy] so beautiful" TCNick3, 2024 9:14

My personal opinions on those conditions: Elite Smash status is not needed. I'm not counting multiplayer that's locked behind an additional paywall in the essential completion list unless directly stated as such (and thankfully I took care of the "online" page of challenges during a free trial). Elite Smash with everyone, even not counting DLC, is not part of that. 9.9 is also not needed due to the conditions that affect it being completely arbitrary. 9.0 is what I'd consider required. For World of Light... I stopped playing when I became unable to continue my Spiritless LP (got up to Dracula before capture card failure and his own cheapness stopped me), and while I always intended to finish playing that game even if Spiritless is off the table... there's just always been something else. Same goes for even starting Mario Odyssey, Luigi's Mansion 3, and plenty of other games I'm looking forward to.

Another banger of a video 🔥 been a subscriber for years and always look forward to your videos

You may have obtained every spirit, but have you leveled them all up to lvl 99 ?

1:04 man got the strat right. (own note here, I found a Nipper Plant somewhere, and evolved it into Petey Piranha after getting Bowser. ever since then, it was all just Bowser Drop Kick, later on evolving Medusa and letting Petey retire in favor of her. eventually I ran into a troublesome stamina spirit and grabbed Tabuu and other similar spirits to make a combo specifically for spamming PK Fire. good at stamina, great if they're giant, even better if they're metal.) also also in Melee, there's a 100,000 battles milestone that literally tells you to go outside lmao

I just love it nick screams "what do you mean!!"
