We recently got my son a Switch, and as he was playing, I heard some very familiar music. I look up and I see Mario battling, Samus, Link and Pikachu, but the battle was taking place in Midgar! Now I haven’t been paying much attention to video gaming lately, due to cardb … I mean Kardboard taking over a vast amount of my time. And, I was surprised to see Midgar in Super Smash Bros. With Ramuh, casting Lightning Bolts, and Leviathan casting a Tidal Wave, as the train keeps on rolling around Midgar.
So, of course I did what any sane person will do. I walked over and started paying closer attention. He was having fun, and so was I. Just watching him cry for joy when he did something that he thought was super cool. Yes, he is just a four year old, excited with his new toy.
Then we started playing together. I noticed there were no Final Fantasy Characters on the Character selection screen, so I picked Samus to begin with. We started doing Team Battles, and every so often after a battle, there would be a screen that pops up, and says “A New Foe Has Arrived”. Some Character named Villager.
Who?
Now, I got to battle this guy?
Well, we lost the first time, cause we still were getting used to the controls. I had to change them up a little, because I kept hitting the wrong buttons as to what I would normally be pressing. Y is to Attack, not Jump. I thought the controls would have been similar to the old Super Mario games of my time. After some tweaking, I was ready to go. And, go we went. We started grabbing new Characters left and right. Princess Peach, King K. Rool, Lil Mac, Diddy Kong, Some guy with a sword. And, then it was bedtime.
I put the kids to bed and sat at my desk to finish up packaging some orders. I took a break and looked up Super Smash Bros had Cloud in it. Can’t stop now, I still have some orders to finish.
Finished up the orders, and I grabbed my son’s Switch and I started playing. Hoping to get Cloud. This has been going on for a couple of nights and still no Cloud in sight, but we did grab some cool Characters. Sonic, Snake, and Bayonetta. I can feel it Cloud is right around the corner.
