• (53:51) Plumokin: “If you could choose any other 3rd party character to be in the game, who would you choose and why?”
• (58:18) GoldenSandslash: “I noticed that the Lucas trophy in Brawl spoils various plot twists in Mother 3, but the Lucas trophy in Smash 4 doesn’t. Curious about where you stand on this. Do you think that trophy descriptions should be allowed to spoil plot twists for their native games? Or do you think that trophy descriptions ought to remain spoiler-free? The former is better for those that have played the games, the latter is better for those who haven’t.”
