America's VA unions are really overbearing and sometimes you're forced to use one studio's employees instead of just the actors you want.

I sure said that!

Ah. So in an attempt to make things better, we looped around into fucking things up. Got it.

I seem to recall quite a few VAs not liking the union and specifically stating that they aren't a part of it. Now that I think about it, I think those tend to be the VAs that play one character and then stick to them.

I thought Palutena was the only one who had been changed - isn't Hynden Walch still voicing Viridi?

There's also the issue of a chunk of our big-deal VAs being headed out of California and another chunk of our big-deal VAs being headed out of Texas.

Uprising used a lot of big-name voices. I'm sure the reason they didn't return is that they are both really busy and that using big-name voice actors would cut into the budget quite a lot. And Sakurai would rather use the resources to polish the gameplay rather than putting in something that's purely cosmetic.

[up][up][up] Nope. It's Julie Parker now.

So I just learned that "Super Smash Bros. Kerfuffle" is not only a Fan Nickname for the fourth games but also so widely used that it'll pull up the official site and Wikipedia articles on a Google search.

I am now going to refer to the fourth game solely by that title.

For Palutena specifically, Ali Hillis just simply wasn't available at the time, and the new VA is a close personal friend of hers. I don't know about Viridi's situation.

Also, evidently a LOT of Nintendo's stuff is recorded in Seattle, where it's actually in close proximity to the company itself. So for lots of VA's, that an actual trip to record lines.

I don't see how distance could be a factor anymore. Not when we have high-speed Internet and digital storage.

Welp, guess I'll be glad at least Pit stayed the same. Not that I played the game or anything, but I can't imagine anyone doing a better job at Pit than this VA. He just sounds so adorably goofy, it's wonderful.

And the lack of a fourth wall continues. [lol]

On one hand, I feel bad for Chrom fans with this. On the other, Chrom is pretty funny near the end. Dang, you go, Viridi!

Watched a bunch of Game Xplain stuff. It's a damn shame there aren't any Sonic music remixes other than Brawl's Angel Island. Maybe unlockable...? Eh, I suppose I shouldn't expect too much. I mean, they picked Windy fucking Hill for the stage. Grr...

Lots of neat stuff, nonetheless. Hope they put up the rest of the Pit codecs.

I think I'll have to stay away from the Smash threads outside of the one for multiplayer while you guys are getting so hyped about music and Palutena Guidance. So... I'll be out for a while tongue

So there's 323 songs listed in the video showing all the starting songs...

But the Direct showed the total song list as being 437. So that's 115 CD's to collect.

The soundtrack already looks amazing as is. I can't wait to see what else is hidden in it. Maybe some more Kirby Triple Deluxe music. Moonstruck Blossom is a bit too slow and serene for this game, but Sectonia's other two fight themes could both work.
