Sakurai acknowledged that they were putting a Microsoft-owned property in their Nintendo game on last night's Nintendo Direct and encouraged everyone to go and play Banjo games on Xbox. Mortal Kombat is viable

There's no decapitation in the game because four of MK1's fatalities are altered on the SNES port (and Genesis too technically but you just had to pop a code in to have all the blood and violence fully intact).

Originally:
Sub-Zero - Rips your head and spine out
Raiden - Electrocutes you so hard your head explodes
Kano - Rips your heart out and then holds it up
Johnny Cage - Uppercuts your head off

SNES:
Sub-Zero - Freezes you and then uppercuts you to pieces which was so awesome it became a regular one for him
Raiden - Electrocutes you so hard there's nothing left but a pile of dust and a skull another one that is legit good despite it being changed and returned in a more explosive way in MK2.
Kano - Punches you really hard and then raises his arm up
Johnny Cage - Kicks you really hard in the chest causing you to have a heart attack and drop dead

I had no idea, interesting changes though and not even that bad.

That edited Cage one just sounds like something you would do as a kid when you couldn't input the Fatality correctly, so you told all your friends "Nuh-uh that was totally a Fatality see Sonya fell over dead!!"

Minecraft is a lot like Animal Crossing in that respect actually as they're both sandbox style games that give you a world to mold to your liking. In regards to Smash, Sakurai stated at one point that a stage would be the best fit for representation in Smash, so I guess that's also true for Minecraft. The biggest issue I have with a Minecraft stage is music as I don't think Minecraft as any memorable tunes.
Nah, minecraft's soundtrack is phenomenal, it's just not in the wheelhouse of frantic battle music that smash goes for nowadays. It focuses on atmosphere and eeriness rather than speed. Alpha, the music that plays during the epilogue (regardless of how stupid the epilogue is) is incredible. It's a musical rendition of an average "day" in minecraft, wake up, adventure, slow down for a bit more adventure, night falls, go to sleep"

Anyways, speaking of music, is there a way to buy the music tracks that come with the dlc characters at all, I don't want to use my switch as an ipod, it wouldn't survive the week

I don't think there's any official releases of the Smash music outside of the game. You'd probably be best off using a Youtube downloader or whatever.

I don't care about Undertale but I do love watching how happy these new characters are making people in their respective fan communities. I'm honestly down with any new characters at this point if there's a sizable group that would flip out over it, like Sans fans, or Latin Americans wrt Terry.

Which is why I want Touhou rep because the amount of community works that would result would be insane. The music remixes alone would be unbelievably dope.

I don't even have smash ultimate but I still get giddy like a little kid on all the big announcements, it's so heartwarming and brings a smile to my face watching videos of nerds freaking out over a character nobody expected for the game.

I kinda like the idea that Sans received a Smash invite, saw how much effort that would be, and then just mailed them a mask and hoodie.

Going by the game the Smash invitation would still be in his mailbox that he never checks and so Sakurai had to do the next best thing

I am not digging the new Megalovania remix. I know this is insane to say since it was remixed by the composer and he has modified it several times across several projects, but my issue with it is the fact that it is at once too similar and too different from the Undertale version that made the song so popular.

The Smash remix is nearly identical to the original for the first 3/4 of the song with the notable exception being that every 2nd or 3rd chord is changed, functionally different. Similar, but with a different note in the bass, and in some cases, a changed melody note. It reminds me of hearing a cover of a song where the musicians butcher a few of the chords but otherwise turn in a respectable cover.

I wish that it was either completely re-harmonized and re-orchestrated so it could exist as its own unique remix or that it was just the original sound file.

Hate to be a Negative Nancy about what is undoubtedly a triumph for one of my favorite video games getting representation in this living video game museum but man, it just totally baffles me. Why change those chords?? :(

I don't have a particularly strong opinion on the remix yet but I know there's bits of Bonetrousle and Heartache jammed in there, at least.

Banjo's side-b literally does beat absolutely every other move in the game aside from grabs. It even beats final smashes and the home run bat. You basically have a starman for its duration

The downward wavery bit in the main melody of the mixed megalovania is really offputting to me, which sucks because the extra stuff he changed elsewhere in the composition imo rules.

He should've just gone with NUTDEALER
