What if SSBU had a 25th anniversary rerelease?

[Perkilator]

Let's say Nintendo's next console came out in, say, 2024, and Smash Ultimate got a rerelease (with all the DLC on the cartridge or disc) to celebrate the series' 25th anniversary. What new content would you add to the rerelease? For me:

Spoiler: Fighters

• #83. Waluigi
• #84. Raven Beak
• #85. Bandana Waddle Dee
• #86-87. Noah & Mio
• #88. Dr. Eggman
• #89. Crash Bandicoot
• #90. Spyro the Dragon
• #36ε. Dixie Kong
• #40ε. Alph
• #82ε. Riku

Because this would even out to exactly 100 fighters (counting Echoes and transformations as separate characters), I'd make the subtitle of this rerelease The Top 100

Spoiler: Bosses

New Bosses added in various modes that include them:

Mother Brain (Metroid series)
The Boss round for Samus in Classic Mode. This is her second form from Super Metroid. Samus' Classic mode route is adjusted: Mother Brain replaces Master Hand as the Boss battle, but it is moved to Round 6. Ridley will be Round 7/Final battle due to being Samus' arch nemesis and the iconic main villain of the Metroid series.

Porky Minch (Earthbound/Mother series)
The Boss round for Earthbound/Mother characters in Classic Mode. Porky replaces Master Hand as the Boss battles.

Black Shadow (F-Zero series)
The Boss round for Captain Falcon in Classic Mode. Black Shadow replaces Bowser and Giga Bowser as the Boss battle.

Death Egg Robot (Sonic the Hedgehog series)
The Boss round for Sonic in Classic Mode. Sonic's Classic mode route is adjusted: Death Egg Robot replaces Master Hand as the Boss battle. Round 6's battle replaces round 5's. Eggman is added for the new round 6 battle.

Grima (Fire Emblem series)
The Boss round for Fire Emblem characters in Classic Mode. Grima replaces Master Hand, Crazy Hand and Rathalos as the Boss battles.

Dr. Wily (Mega Man series)
The Boss round for Mega Man in Classic Mode. Dr. Wily replaces Dr. Mario and Mewtwo battle.

Metal Face (Xenoblade Chronicles)
The Boss round for the Xenoblade Chronicles characters in Classic Mode. Metal Face replaces Master Hand (and Crazy Hand) as boss battles. Also used as a boss for Noah & Mio.



I'm aware that characters have their own villains (especially Fire Emblem and Xenoblade Chronicles) but I've had to limit it to one per franchise.

Other Classic Mode adjustments:
Donkey Kong
Master Hand will be in Round 6, King K.Rool will be the Stage 7 opponent, since he's the main villain of the Donkey Kong series.

Dark Samus
Boss stage will be removed, replaced with a supercharged Samus battle (Giant Ridley as an ally). Stage 6 will be solo Giant Ridley (in his Meta form).

Zero Suit Samus
Boss stage will be removed, replaced with Giant Ridley battle.

Cloud
Boss stage will be removed, replaced with Sephiroth battle.

Ridley
Samus battle will now be Round 7 (but Samus is stronger), instead of Stage 1. Boss battle with Master Hand will be stage 6 instead. Zero Suit Samus will be moved into Round 7, so Ridley will face Zero Suit Samus first, then Samus. Zero Suit Samus stage will feature Sora instead - Ridley's Classic Mode features battles with characters who pilot their own spaceships, and Sora uses the Gummi Ship in his games.

Work in progress...

Character Costumes

Mii Costumes
