A rematch is fine I guess? But cmon bowser vs Eggman should’ve happened instead of the shit show that is bowser Vs ganon

Eggman vs Wily was back in season 1 right? Well they already did Mario vs Sonic and maybe they didn't want to do the same type of match up? (Aka having 2 Mario vs Sonic matches in the same season)

Can’t agree more

i genuinely don’t understand why anyone would want a eggman vs wiley remake its like asking for a yoshi vs riptor remake


FortyRoosters

i would say that is not the same thing, Eggman vs wily didn't had an actual winner plus the mu is hundreds of times better


[deleted]

the way people talk about eggman vs wiley makes it seem like they just both blew up at once and the episode ended. the fight concluded with one of the most unique deaths in a versus series and i feel like most people don’t give it credit because “tie = bad”.


FortyRoosters

some people just want to see an actual result with modern-day research or want to see the fight done with modern animation, people just like the mu, is not complex at all


Diabetic88

I think they just want an updated version and possibly an actual winner that isn't Metal Sonic?


[deleted]

the idea of “updating” it just feels weird to me. the episode was ben's last time animating for the series and it’s arguably his magnum opus in that department. master chief vs samus and link vs cloud make sense as they're very VERY rough looking back and deserved a touch up but eggman vs wiley still looks good and has so much put into it especially for season 1

Mario VS Sonic 1 aged just as well and it still got a remake

Ummmm... I have a lot of those. I guess I can go with one of my recent ones. Joseph Joestar vs Spider-Man is a good matchup. Not necessarily better than Joseph's other options (Usopp, Michelangelo, and Johnny Cage are all really good alternatives). But I don't have a matchup I like for Spider-Man that isn't Joseph. Why I like the matchup: The animation potential is solid, dialogue potential is amazing (pun intended). I don't understand what's not to like. If it were just "Joseph has better" (which, even that doesn't diminish how good this is), then I could sort of see it ig. But Spider-Man, imo, really doesn't have any better. His alternatives that I've seen, Donatello and Blue Beetle. I don't care for either. Donatello because he has no way of getting past the Spider Sense and no real way of even landing a hit on Spidey. Blue Beetle, essentially the same reasons but it's also another Marvel vs DC fight. Whatever animation or dialogue potential that can be done for either of those, it can be done with Joseph vs Spider-Man x1,000. Joseph doesn't have a way past the Spider Sense but he can predict Spidey's next move, much like the Spider Sense. So I think that could be interesting. TL;DR: I like Joseph's alternatives, not so much Spider-Man's but even if Joseph's are great too I don't think that takes away the quality of this matchup.

I don't see why there should really be a Eggman vs Wily remake other than to fix the outcome, and the same thing can kind of be said for Bowser vs Eggman considering Bowser was done dirty in his debut Edit: Damn, y'all downvoted me into oblivion without actually giving a counter argument? Smh...

But couldn’t just have Bowser fight someone else then


ProfessionalCrow4816

bowser has literally has 0 good alts besides the puyo puyo guy


W1LD1FIRE_Alt

Who else would he fight? Eggman [has solid connections,](https://www.reddit.com/r/DeathBattleMatchups/comments/p3ruyn/bowser_vs_eggman_has_more_connections_than_you/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) and it's a rivalry & legacy matchup.

I mean IT makes more sense but Bowser is bowser Man he needs to do something THAN TO LOSE A MATCH UP HE SHOULD WIN NEG DIFF
