I'm sure Board 8 has already discussed it, but what's up with the hugely disappointing lack of Final Fantasy in this game? Konami and Capcom both gave us a family-size stew of nostalgic goodness, but Square is almost invisible. Is the company just that difficult to work with?

Everyone thinks Square is very stingy and that we're lucky to have even Cloud back. The total list of Square stuff in the game:
- Cloud
- One stage
- Two songs
- Two spirits, both of which are from Mario RPG
And Cloud's fighter spirit is a render from Smash, unlike everyone else, who use in-game or manual artwork from their games.

I've heard that it's a trickier legal tightrope to work with Square because you need the permission of several different people involved with the old games. Who knows what's accurate and what isn't, but I've been really enjoying watching random Spirits pop up during the game, so the complete absence of FF material is the biggest bummer so far.

I wonder who's beaten her legitimately.

Considering how early she shows up in the game with her stats level, and has that completely absurd defense bonus combining with the time limit, probably not a whole lot.

I managed it with Pikachu on my second try after failing with Snake for at least a dozen. I can't remember the exact strats I used, but I think Pika's a decent counter because the AI didn't seem quite as effective against him.

If you play around in Spirit Board enough to get some good spirits, she's really easy, especially if you use someone who likes flat stages like Little Mac. Really the only issue is overcoming her power level, which can be done with a good number of Legend spirits. I used Cutie J my first time through (have to unlock the Ace-level Jeanne first, who appeared on the spirit board, then level her to 99 to get Cutie J).

I did. Simon Belmont's keepaway is strong enough that you can keep her down from a distance. I had some trouble, especially when she uses her final smash, but when I beat her, I ended up with a sizeable life lead. You honestly just spam projectiles enough and hit her with the whip when she falls into a holy water. And if she gets too close, tilt down to roll and/or jump away.

Yeah, I wasn't touching the Spirit Board, so I couldn't match her stats.

Enjoying spirit world immensely. I don't remember my fight for The Boss, but pretty sure I did it legitimately and in only a few tries. I didn't do it when I first found it, though -- iirc you can just leave it until later when you have a more powerful party.

So far the hardest fights for me have been the 9-Volt fight, and a fight for a spirit I don't remember where Yoshi, Duck Hunt and Lucario all had beam swords, where I was just being really stubborn on using a weak party because I felt like I should be able to do it.

<100 spirits left for me obtain... most of which are just Classic clears but yeah the lack of FF spirits was a depressing realization. All other 3rd parties have such incredible representation, like even just noticing so damn many Bayo spirits through the game was amazing... and just nothing from Square. =/

Are there any legendary (****) primary spirits from series that don't have playable representation? I thought it was neat to see Shantae and Shovel Knight as decent ace spirits.

Don't say Geno because he's still Mario.

There are at least a couple, like Akira from Virtua Fighter. Isaac's Spirit is Ace but it can be leveled, so I assume that will become a Legendary one as well.

Rayman

Rayman's only an ace, but from looking at the spirit list, I see the annoying Assist Trophy in Rayman's spirit battle is a legendary.

Also I just got Zeke's spirit and yeah, it's a Cloud battle. Also I'm offended he's only a novice spirit!

I realllllllly hope that Square will let them put a DQ rep in as one of the DLC characters. It would be very smart for them to do so considering that theyve been trying to grow the series popularity in the west for a long time, but the lack of other Square stuff probably doesnt bode well for my hopes.

The Miis are only available in standard Smash mode as long as you have one that is created. They don't have a Classic Mode, and in Adventure Mode they have to be unlocked like any other fighter.

Unlocking them in Adventure also adds the "default" of each Mii type to your created Mii Fighters, so they'll also appear in Smash mode if you haven't created any on your own yet.
