• (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.”

• (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.”
