If the World of Light cinematic in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate left you craving a proper story set within the Smash universe, this new fan-made mini-series might be worth keeping an eye on.
As Nintendo seemingly has no intentions to release its own movie or web series based on its all-star cast in the immediate future, a talented animator and modder, known as King Bob Gaming on Twitter, has decided to create their very own Super Smash Bros. mini-series.
According to the creator's Reddit post, it took them "forever to model the city of Onett" from the EarthBound series in the below 18-second sample featuring Ness zipping around on his skateboard.

In the same Reddit post, the talent behind the project explained how the original idea was to get all of the characters to "organically" meet up in the series. It's also required a lot of research:
"I like the idea of the characters organically meeting in their respective games as opposed to them just being trophies! So I’ve been working on a story to make that happen! It’s been fun, there’s so much about the character’s worlds I never knew about as I’ve studied each of their backstories!"
As for the finer details, a good portion of the first arc will be set within the Mushroom Kingdom and will feature the original eight fighters. In saying this, certain characters might appear sooner than expected:
"Certain characters may appear earlier! For example, a good portion of the first arc will take place in the mushroom kingdom. (4 out of the original 8 come from there) So there’s a possibility of some extra"

I love the gaming community because you can discover so much talent out there, this seems to be one of those cases.
Free advertising for Nintendo. Fans doing what Nintendont.
Love these fan videos, keep going guys.
Beautiful, keep it coming!
Looks amazing. Great talent
Did it say when we can expect some finished videos? This looks super cool!
That looks cool! Nice rendition of the music, too.
That was gorgeous. I hope y’all will make an article when he finishes the video
@Ryan_Again Unfortunately not, as far as I know.
@MH4 Probably!
My prediction is that Fox McCloud crash lands outside of Onett and meets Ness right before the alien attack. At least that's what I'd like to see.
I did not know about the "World of Light" video. That song they chose for the ending was...uh...crud. Any suggestions?
@Liam_Doolan Did you seriously just change your user icon to Undo Dog already?!
It'll probably get a cease and desist unfortunately.
@forgottenarctic Um...yes!
This makes me pine for an HD remake of Earthbound.
@Liam_Doolan Now that's commitment!
This looks nice and all, at least until Nintendo sues the creator for stealing their intellectual property
Absolutely amazing.
And to think of how dreadfully cheap CGI television series tend to look.
Why are these people not in the field and upping the standards within the industry?
@thesilverbrick ILL TAKE THE ENTIRE STOCK
Can't wait for the full version.
does his research -> gives ness a skateboard... could've done the game justice with a bike
Lucas has the saturn board as his stage entrance though
Looks pretty cool.
