Did you know that Piranha Plant was initially imagined as a tri-jumps character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate? Researcher Meshima discovered that the team lowered the amount of maximum jumps from two to three in the day one. Why this happened is unknown.
Interestingly, the game’s motion folder still has the unused third jump animation. Here’s a look:

Last week’s issue of Famitsu had a different type of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate interview. While we’re typically used to hearing from director Masahiro Sakurai, the magazine caught up with two people heavily involved with the music side of things. Hideki Sakamoto (who wrote the main theme song) and Erina Koga (who sung the main theme in Japanese) chatted with Famitsu. There was talk about the creation of the music, what the recording session was like, and more.
You can read our full translation of the interview below. We do also have a brief comment from Sakurai as well who commented on his approach to the main theme this time around.

PSA: Playing as Piranha Plant in Smash Bros. Ultimate’s All-Star Mode can corrupt save data
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo added Piranha Plant to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tonight. It’s not just a new playable character, as it can also be used across various game modes. However, you may want to hold off on playing as Piranha Plant in one specific mode.
We’re hearing that save data may become corrupt after going through All-Star Mode with the latest roster addition. It’s currently unclear why this is happening, but multiple player reports are out there. Nintendo will likely be preparing a fix very soon, so it’d be best to hold off until a patch is made available.
