• (1:10:36) RubberCyborg: “I know many gamers, including myself, love the music in our favorite games. It is a large part of what makes them so memorable. Out of all the franchises in Smash Ultimate announced so far, what are 2 or 3 of your most wanted songs for the game? Personally, I am really going to die if something from Tropical Freeze is not in. Maybe Deep Keep. I would also really love Inkoming from Splatoon 2 and also maybe Oblivia – Day theme from Xenoblade X.”
• (1:16:54) Itsabughuntman: “Almost as sad as not having a fighter, it stinks when certain games don’t have any music representation. With over 800 tracks this time, which currently unrepresented series do you want to see? I’d love to see some remixes of Chibi-Robo tunes.”
