Reacting to SORA in SMASH, the BEST CASE SCENARIO 

I know when he arrived in his KH1 gear you lost it! Great reaction bro!!! 💯 Sora is finally here in Smash Bros Ultimate!!! ❤️‍🔥

Your reaction was so wholesome and honest it made me cry. Keep up the great work man

I’m so glad I decided to binge this game series after years of only owning KH2 and Days. It’s really culminating in a way I never expected. What a ride!

Im with you on switching mains Pat. I main zelda currently but ive been saying since Smash 4 that if Sora ever got in I would switch in a heartbeat. I am SO hyped for his release. I seriously almost cried as soon as Simple and Clean started playing.

Not sure if you'll see this comment, but Regular Pat do you think you'll make a video explaining how you'd fix the Disney Worlds as a follow-up to your last video?

Technically he used fire raid lol

that moment threw me for a short but severe loop honestly, like: "Huh? What?? Dark souls? Guilty gear??? KH-- nah... WAIT WHAT--?!"

"Take that!"

He is tired of getting stomped on by all the newcomers so he found out how to abuse kh 1 strike raid

I hope they feel right stupid rn

I try not to let the salty people bring us down, it's our victory today

Dude. I’m not overly shocked. Sakurai proved that the seemed impossible is possible. First Steve and then Sora.

What was their issue with sora in smash? Genuinely curious. I'm guessing some kind of legal issue or thematic issue

@@adverterb just to be rude imma guess, almost every argument on twitter just seemed like they didn't want Sora in just to annoy kingdom hearts fans

And the stage is KH1 HB

Isn’t it technically every Sora since we have his KH1, KH2, DDD, and KH3 outfits?

@@DexterousRed yeah, but the attacks are all KH1 attacks, some appear in other games as well, but they all originated in KH1. I love the alts though, I'm torn between 1, 2, and TR.

Huh, I didn’t know aerial sweep came from kh1

@@crazyfire9470 yeah, for years I thought a lot of stuff originated in later games cause I never used it in 1, even though I played 1 religiously, haha.

sakurai is a nerdy white KH challenge runner youtuber watcher confirmed

*Throws an L*

Oh God damn it, Sakurai. Amazing s.o.b.

Be glad it isn't 358/2 days.

I heard the patch version will be 13.0.0

@@EqualityEarth it is, and sora comes with 13 spirits

You could build a successful integrated moveset for sure, but it was not a bad call to keep it KH1. I think Ripple Drive or something would have been a way cooler down b than the counter tho.

@@tenworms ripple drive omg the sexiest ability... I keep wanting to switch to shield for my kh1 playthroughs, but ripple drive is so fun

@@tenworms it would've been dope but people are already dealing with busted DLC characters enough lol

It is pretty clean

I would have wanted something as a mix of 1 and 2, but I’m still happy I finally got me boy in general!

That Game Informer April Fools Joke from all those years ago has achieved ascended meme status

Really puts the fire in _Fire_ Emblem

Off the top of my head, Peach, Bowser, Zelda, Ganondorf (I think? Isn’t he king of the Gerudo?), Marth, Roy? (He’s a marquess, does that count?), Dedede, Lucina, Corrin, Daisy, Chrom, and K. Rool. Worth noting that Robin and Byleth can both marry into monarchies in a couple ways, but aren’t monarchs themselves by default (IIRC). Also, Terry is the King of Fighters. Does that count?

@@MisterZebra42 I know he used fire on other non-royalty authority figures, so Roy would be included potentially with Metaknight (the head of the Meta Knights and commander of the Halberd's crew) and the Pokémon Trainers (might be a stretch but they command creatures that are shown to have human levels of sapience)

@@MisterZebra42 Shulk becomes a god, Byleth is a teacher, Olimar is a captain and leads the Pikmin, Wario is the head of his own company, Ridley is the leader of the Space Pirates, Sheik is Zelda, Rosalina is pretty much the mother of all of the Lumas, Bowser Jr is Bowser's son and the Koopalings are important leaders in his army, Palutena is a goddess, Dark Pit is a general in Viridi's army if Palutena's Guidance is to be trusted, Ike is a general, I think DK is a king in the DKC cartoon, Fox is the leader of the team Star Fox and Wolf is the leader of Star Wolf, Villager is the mayor of a town (if we're talking about New Leaf, at least), and Kazuya is the head of a company when his dad isn't there to take charge, so those are kind of authority figures. Does that count? I may be misremembering some details and I might have missed some fighters. Then there are the assist trophies... I don't remember all of them, though.

@@MisterZebra42 Technically Robin is also royalty on account of their dad becoming the king of Plegia after Gangrel's death. Probably not officially recognized, though, since Robin being his child wasn't public knowledge.

He lost the bet twice

Also from yeeting Pooh and Larxene.

Nomura probably insisted on that.

@@BJGvideos definitely not the character one though

They’re all just Kingdom Haters Yup, hater is an anagram of heart >.>

@@EqualityEarth makes sense

Sakurai must feel like that Norman Osborn meme: "Do you have any idea what I have sacrificed?!"

those same people whining about sora will bitch and moan about how they didnt add another villain character from a franchise thats already in the game, or some random asshole that has no place in smash like Goku or something. Just ignore them

Same

I think the animation is also used for Whirligoof and the sentinel reaction command, maybe other places too.

That’s exactly what he said

@@tenworms It reminds me of some of the flowmotion throws he performs in DDD on the larger mob enemies.

I can't imagine fighting Lingering Will or Yozora with frames of lag.

I'm hopiiiing that the pre KH3 stuff will do fine via cloud since they aren't too demanding, but KH3 is gonna be basically unplayable. Switch's remote play stuff is like, not great.

@@PikminandOatchi not my point. My internet is plenty to run them fine. It just isn't optimal compared to actual cartridges or as a digital releases. The switch is also a console to be taken away from home, where good wi-fi is much harder or impossible to obtain. Also i've already played all of the games so i'm just speaking on behalf of people who haven't.

@@PikminandOatchi Even on fast internet cloud versions run like shit on Switch, they are pretty severely compromised when you compare them to like the Stadia for instance. Not to mention that in most places on Earth getting fast internet is literally impossible because the infrastructure doesn't exist. Like, there's nothing someone living in a town of 2000 people in fucking Nebraska can do about their internet.

@@PikminandOatchi says the urban city slicker.

I don’t think so but Kirby is

He didn't just touch it, he manifested it.

Well true, Sora isn't associated with fire.. But it works. After all, in this scene, the fire was the light in the darkness. The light that saved them all.

@@SoraKingdom3 that’s definitely true, I think I just thought it was Dark Souls so it seemed super out of left field lol

@@joeyjose727 Ah yeah me too! I really though it was going to be either the main protagonist of Dark Souls, or Solare (I think that's his name? The guy who praise the sun?) But no! It's our boy Sora!

That's exactly why it was so good.

The short version of how I interpreted the cinematic: The Heart of Smash was burning out but the last embers formed a Kingdom Key that Mario wielded to summon new hype into the series.

I was thinking that while watching too

We tolerate swordfighters when its a character we actually care about and recognize.

it feels weird to say this, but it didn't sound right for the victory screen :o i'm not sure why though. something about it ending upwards sounds off

Same

Same and I'm 41.

@@BJGvideos same and I'm 27.

I mean, everyone can wield a keyblade at this point

Well Mario was able to use what looked like Strike Raid so...

@@Jojo-on7pk Yeah but it seems like he manifested it rather than just touching it.

Well...she doesn't yet have a Station of Awakening in the series. Wait! A Station of Awakening exhibit does have one with her and Sora. No solo ones, though...

A scattered dream is like a far off memory A far off memory is like a scattered dream I want to line the pieces up Yours and mine

Pokémon is the one series I love to see a lot of because they all have different move sets and designs. I will say though the game is currently stacked with them though and I’d take franchise variety over them.

Pokemon already has a solid roster in Smash, as well as a fighting game, and a MOBA, they have plenty of places to shine outside of Smash that wouldn't come at the expense of franchise diversity

I mean like, I just can’t think of literally one good reason for ending off this 3 year long dlc cycle with a character from an already represented series lol like sure for those who LOVE pokemon it’d be exciting but it wouldn’t really excite the masses or do any justice to fan demand/polls

Idk I'm a huge Pokémon fan but I would have felt let down by that. Unless it was something REALLY out of left field like Cynthia or Giovanni or something. You know, a human character.

It would've been Byleth all over again. I'm a massive fan of both Pokémon and Fire Emblem but the timing for Byleth was very wrong and the timing for a new Pokémon rep as the final character would've equally been as wrong.

Lol and of course Regular Pat remembers it as soon as I comment 😂
