Super Smash Bros. Fans Miss Subspace Emissary

thegamer.com:

Super Smash Bros. fans are feeling nostalgic, hoping that the next game brings back elements from Brawl. More specifically, fans want to see aspects of Subspace Emissary make their way into the next Smash game, having been absent from the series since 2008.

This comes as Smash fans look back on Subspace Emissary's enemy designs, appreciating the wild designs that never got used again. Even though Nintendo has since ditched them, fans still appreciate them fifteen years later, prompting them to share other aspects of the iconic story mode that they'd love to see make a return.

Dozens of fans are in agreement, feeling that the Super Smash Bros. series hasn't quite managed to recapture the magic of Brawl's bizarre campaign mode since 2008. For some, this is all down to these unique enemy designs, as the devs opted to bring in something fresh, rather than use enemies from other Nintendo games as Super Smash Bros. Melee had.

Anyone who tried to 100 percent the mode will remember going up against swarms of these enemies at higher levels, desperately trying to dodge all of their attacks. Worse yet was trying to get all of the trophies, as this involved keeping enemies alive long enough to have a trophy stand lobbed at them. While they keep attacking you, of course.
