Travis Touches Down In Super Smash Bros.

The final battle against Damon inNo More Heroes iiiis done in the style ofSuper Smash Bros.,with the ii fighters stuck on an Omega-fashion stage, with a 2D perspective, and a percentage meter for health. The fight even ends with a "Game" message, to further cement the connection, once the enemy is thrown off the side of the stage. What makes this fight so special, aside from the humor itself, is that it givesSuper Smash Bros. Ultimatefans a chance to play equally Travis in a battle directly out of the fighting game. Since it's unlikely that Travis will be the final SmashDLC character, this is probably their only run a risk to do so.

The reason Travis is unlikely to exist a full Smash character is that he's currently a Mii Swordfighter costume, which pretty much rules out his chances of taking a spot. This wouldn't be so bad if some of the DLC slots hadn't been blown on characters like Piranha Establish, Min Min, or Byleth. A lot of theSuper Smash Bros. UltimateDLC representatives have come up from Nintendo Switch exclusives, but despite Travis being but as deserving of a spot as Pyra/Mythra, he was relegated to Mii Fighter costume condition. In the terminate, Suda51 did what Masahiro Sakurai didn't, and gaveNo More Heroesfans the chance to play Travis in aSuper Blast Bros.battle.
