I’m confused on what the “Nintendo” series refers to?
Also Shantae isn’t represented by an Assist Trophy but by both Spirits and a Mii Costume.
I’ve updated Nintendo to say Wii. I think that’s what was meant.
And thanks for catching that with Shantae. It should’ve said ‘As a Mii Costume’ instead
Isn’t a master chief Mii costume in game? Is that halo?
NVM, my bad. I mixed halo and doom up. 😅 Sorry!
