Good ol' Nintendo decided to throw everyone off-guard with a sudden reveal, so I figured I might as well share some first impressions! I'm curious to know what you all think about the console at the moment. I'm a bit more interested to see the games, as usual.
Since that's over, back to the usual! A certain type of Mario Maker level may or may not be coming soon. Hint hint.

![Clouds Fight for Glory - Smash 4 Online! [6]
After a bit of waiting since the announcement trailer, we finally get a feel for Cloud! From my first impressions, hes super fun to play as and seems to be a pretty good character. Naturally, after testing him out for a couple of minutes, I had to tackle For Glory with him!

![Tough Shulk - Zelda For Glory! [2]
More Zelda For Glory matches! W00t!
In my course of improvement, Ive started to focus less on coming up with creative combos, and more with how reliably I can execute them if I manage to win the neutral. I seem to really suffer in that regard, and only manage to use my best options every now and then, so thats one goal in mind.
Im also unsure of how to tackle characters like Shulk, other than air dodge jump to close in. Geez.
These replays span about the the course of two months. I guess you can see the difference.

![Destinys Force (Kingdom Hearts) - Game Suite Zone
After two months without a Game Suite Zone cover episode, Im very pleased to bring you this analysis and recreation of Destinys Force from Kingdom Hearts, composed by Yoko Shimomura!
Here are the sections covered.
1) Tempo & Time Signature - 0:33
2) ??? - 1:50
3) Contrabassoon - 3:29
4) French Horn Ensemble - 4:46
5) Cymbal & Gong - 5:40
6) Viola Ensemble - 6:38
7) Trumpet Ensemble - 8:58
8) Pianos - 11:40
9) The Big Transition - 13:46
10) Other Strings - 14:56
11) Snares - 15:40
12) Organ - 16:33
13) The Opening - 17:48
14) Ending the Piece - 18:59
15) Panning & Mastering - 19:21
The piece itself took forever to cover (with over 64 patterns), so Im thoroughly surprised I managed to condense all of this into 22 minutes. Making this entire video was a huge challenge to overcome, but Im glad I managed to. We dont have an orchestra with us to cover this piece, but luckily we have virtual instruments! This can be a nice introduction to orchestra stuff.
I hope you learned something new today, and will possibly look forward to future episodes! If you have any suggestions on what I should tackle next, feel free to let me know! I cant guarantee I can pull it off, but you never know.
Sonic, Knuckles, Cream, and Amy sprites (from thumbnails) were ripped by Dave [Hypero] Edwards, and Chao sprites were ripped by Psychtaygar both from The Spriters Resource!
