I’m convinced they only decided to Buff Jigglypuff in Ultimate because of the Everyone Is Here Slogan.

Fun fact: Sakurai actually patched a few custom moves. He only stopped after the community banned them from competitive, so a lot of the "Silly ones" that were found later like DK's Up B could have been nerfed if they continued to be legal. Makes you think 🤔

I loved the idea of custom moves, made the characters feel more unique and personal. Especially Ganondorf's Wizard Dropkick, on the ground it made him go high enough at the start to avoid projectiles, and in the air massively helped his recovery. They definitely shouldn't have been so hard to unlock though, especially since you could get custom moves you ALREADY unlocked. Wouldn't mind seeing them returned, if they're better implemented

I liked custom moves cause it gave charecters an edge in a certian area. Bowser in particular. I know plenty of people can use him great but my biggest problem was he was slow and had no projectiles. I added a custom move to replace his fire breath. Instead of the short litle flamethrower he could launch three huge fireballs at an oponant. It had range and speed. Another small change I did for Link was replacing the gale boomerang with a standard one. It just botheted me the gale bolmerang drew items too you and getting exsplosive items like a bombomb was anoying. it may have changed up how charecters wer used and I understand some felt that was bad for the games but being able to add some changes you wanted in a charecter was good for some.

Worth noting, Palutena has so many unique customs bc she uses a large majority of the custom equipment skills in Uprising, which made her a good candidate for the "tutorial" character on how custom moves worked. Like you mentioned, Mega Man had a similarly large pool of reference material that also made him a good candidate

I feel like some custom moves could've been applied to some echo fighters' movesets to make them more unique, like for Daisy and Dark Samus. And yes, I totally agree that Wizard Dropkick should have been Ganondrof's new down special.

In my opinion, Daisy and Lucina should've gotten one of their base character's customs to differentiate them more. This would've been a way to make them a little less like complete reskins (especially in Daisy's case), while still keeping the workload of making an echo fighter low. I personally would've gone with Crescent Slash for Lucina and either Heavy Veggie or Light Parasol for Daisy.

@@brendanhughes5679 The problem with a lot of custom moves wasn't that they made the character they were on busted. It's that a lot of them were spammable to the point of being braindead, and were usually really fucking unfun to play against because of it. Again, let's look at Kong Cyclone. On any stage with platforms, it gave DK the ability to just mash it, because it autocanceled incredibly easily, was massive and effectively impossible to contest, and would combo on hit. Unless he fucked it up and failed the auto-cancel, he could just keep doing it, over and over and over again. You really didn't have to think that much, and it made the character incredibly bad for the health of the game. Same thing with Trip Sapling, or Sonic's alternative side and n-specials.

​​@@brendanhughes5679 Yes, they can change the character immensely. Kong Cyclone alone made DK from bad to insanely strong and hard to deal with because of how stacked it was (And it was on prepatch DK. Imagine it on DK with the Ding Dong) Villager with trip seed and exploding baloons was extremely toxic to fight too since all he did was camping at the ledge and 95% of the cast had no way to deal with it. I could go on and on but most custom moves were extremely toxic, polarizing, led into infinites, promoted non interacting etc. Or were outright useless. Some of them were genuinely creative, healty and helped the character a lot, but was a big minority Also customs were a pain to unlock (I had over 2k hours on Smash 4 and still don't have all custom moves. Is that hard), add this to how unbalanced they were and banning them was the best solution overall.

Custom moves are technically still in the game, albeit only Mii Fighters have them now. Still I wish more characters had moveset changes that reflected their custom moves like they did with Palutena. Ganondorf could of have been slightly better with Wizard Dropkick for example.

I wish they kept the custom moves for Kirby and Mega Man since they both have a array of abilities.

King Dedede's Bouncing Gordos was the most fun custom move in the game.

I remember having a the 3DS version and I was able to unlock all the custom moves playing the challenge thing, it was Grindy asf still but really fun to mess around with all of them

I loved the custom moves because it gave the game more life to me. I’m not all about competitive tournaments. I actually played Smash as a party game, and custom moves gave so much more variety to it.

It honestly feels like Custom Moves would be possible if they had more work put into balancing, or maybe a system that allows you to block them from a match. Imagine that the way to get them is by either fighting a boss based on the characters game, or playing through a single-player campaign whete you have to complete certain quests to find them or must find them along the way

TBH they were just an excuse to bring cut characters back Before Lucas became DLC, Ness had PK Freeze

Imagine a custom moves but it only replaced one move and it was balanced allowing more variety for moves.

Plautena was basically the poster child for custom moves and mega man

I would love to be able to mod the custom moves to actually be representative of their home games/series; much as what Sakurai and the other devs did with Palutena and Mega Man. Though it sucks that in a fair bit of cases, I'm forced to either leave some moves or even entire characters alone or go by moves or references that only came to exist after Smash 4. Being able to balance them for at least some competitive use also would be interesting, but it probably wouldn't be terribly possible to do that. If it's possible, it could even be cool to give the DLC characters their own custom specials, but Ryu I probably wouldn't be able to do anything with given his whole style. I can't even think of anything for Ryu outside of referencing Ken, Dan, or maybe even Ryo Sakazaki from Art of Fighting.

I really don't know what Nintendo was thinking giving Ganondorf a better recovery as a custom move. That's something that should've been stock for him, considering how bad his base one is and how slow he is

if theres something modern mortal kombat did right (and probably the only thing as well) its the variations rather than having character alts like alph/richter, we shouldve had a set of alts ( either colors or characters like doctor mario/lucina) that had different properties, like a heavy hitting sheik (aka melee sheik) instead of the weak multihit sheik. wouldve taken more time to make for sure but it would've been interesting

Uhh... So I did unlock all the custom moves in the 3DS version of SSB4. It's absolutely something I never want to do again.

i hope this comes back in the new game with new development

I remember charizard actually being viable with custom moves on, because they got some ridiculously good customs. In particular, I remember dragon rush being pretty decent

I think customs could work in super smash bros 64 and melee, as long as it isn't possible to obtain duplicates

In the 3ds version, the easier way of getting these moves is through Smash Run

im just 2 mins (2:01) into the vid, but yeah now i see why they banned custom moves even more-so now.. not just cuz some of the moves are powerful/broken.. but because they're difficult to get because you need to grind for them (? right?)

Hey, at least Custom moves are still technically in ultimate, because Mii Brawler can use it to be a more dedicated counterpick... What do you mean there's other 2 miis outside brawler?

Even if I didn’t get all of the custom moves, I still wish I could get all of the hours wasted grinding for those moves

Imagine if Hero's menu had 2 other Custom move versions with completely different spells :^)

Ganons down b in super smash flash 2 is the wizards dropkick. Im upset it didn't come back in ultimate.

To this day I'll never understand why TOs banned Palutena's custom moves. They are already unlocked from the start. Or maybe Sakurai's team is at fault for not having them all unlocked in the first place. Such a missed opportunity.

do a series talking about interesting custom moves

Between trying to make essentially 8 more mores for the entire cast of like 50+ iconic characters and trying to keep it relatively balanced, custom moves- as far as Smash goes- were always going to be kinda all-over-the-place. I say for Smash specifically because they CAN work and I have played a game where it's a pretty similar situation (4 special moves, each move having two other alts to switch to; albeit it's a standard fighter with a roster of about 20-ish), and in that case the game is still fairly balanced. (If anyone is curious what game I'm talking about, it's called Touhou Hisoutensoku, or just "soku" for short. And it's... a different experience, even for 2D fighters. XD ) Even putting aside balance you can tell they struggled to even make distinctly different moves which is why so many of them are forgettable to begin with (if they're not just completely unusable). Even if it was just only one other set of specials instead of two, they'd probably still struggle a lot in that department. (Case in point, just look at Mario, who is supposed to be the typical beginner-friendly shotoclone: His neutral- and up-special, which are arguably the two most defining moves of any character's moveset, are of the cookie-cutter "same exact move but trade range/speed/recovery for power and vice versa" rule that goes for nearly every custom move in the game.) Then you add balancing as well as the possibility of future fighters coming to the game and you have a recipe for ambivalence right there. (And balancing in itseld is a whole other can of worms.) And it's not like I don't want this to work either but the idea was heavily flawed to begin with.

I was asking that with a friend

Time constraints. It’s a lot harder to code different movements into side B than to just give Link a slower boomerang. Let’s say they changed Link’s boomerang to the Twilight Princess ball and chain. Link would need to now have a different animation, and that would take a LOT of work because he’s essentially a different character now. Imagine the loading time. Not to say it can’t be done, but they just can’t put in that kind of work especially when a majority of their players aren’t going to use them. I would…but I’m the minority 😂. I loved the custom moves.

Yeah they were pretty useless while they were around

It's 100x more work, but I think a smash bros with just the smash 64 characters, but each character having 3 move options per special would be way more fun than the hundreds of characters in ultimate. Each character would have like 81 different possible combinations, meaning there's so much opportunity for creativity and player expression.

Things like custom moves and echo fighters could have been better and more unique if Nintendo didn't make consoles one after another and Smash wasn't on such a dumb deadline to pretty much be the release game. Smash games NEVER have enough time to be good and balanced at the start of their release and everything is so rushed.
