Super Smash Bros. for Wii U & 3DS Discussion

I've been going through the textures of SSB4, and I noticed that Dark Pit's images are literally labeled "Pitb", as in Pit being "Pit A" and him being "Pit B". Not even Nintendo had respect for him.

I don't think its a matter of respect as much as it is, Dark Pit is literally Pit B. His in-game joke name is Pit2. A second Pit. He's a clone character that is literally a clone of Pit in his game. He's called Black Pit in the jap version and Dark Pit in the others, pitb is more universal.

The rest have the Japanese names, though (the Pokemon, Bowser, Villlager, etc.) and I don't see why they wouldn't have just called him "Blackpit".

Are there really placeholder files for King K. Rool?

 

[Time Turner]

There aren't any texture files for him (besides the trophy), if that's what you're asking. At the very least, they're not labeled.

I'm I the only one that hates those giant skull things from Kid Icarus (haven't played any of them sorry) that 1HKO
you in Smash run? It reminds me of the SA-X.

Do you seriously think they were going 'lets call him pitb to make fun of him huehuehuheuue'? It's a file name, a name that nobody would normally see. His model is literally Pit's with a few very minor tweaks, Pitb works fine for a character that was made to pad out the roster. It isn't a matter of respect, it's just a minor choice in file names for characters with minor differences.

File names are nothing more than a means of organization for the developer or group of developers working on a project. They don't have to make sense to the people who are not involved with the project.
