Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Created by Big Game Productions, member of the Smash Bros. machinima group SmashingXIII, Delusions of Grandeur is a Machinima filmed in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The series is The Remake of a series by razanak7, which was originally in filmed in Super Smash Bros. Melee.For years, Fox McCloud was the undisputed champion of the Smash Bros. tournaments: his impressive winning streak led to him proclaiming himself the "King of Smash." But one day, he loses. He dismisses it as a fluke and is a bit miffed, but for the most part he gets over it. Then it continues: month after month, year after year, Fox gradually begins losing almost every single matchup. The constant losses contribute to a steady Sanity Slippage, and he suddenly vanishes after suffering one defeat too many. Then suddenly, fighters who were known to have defeated Fox begin mysteriously disappearing... and it all goes downhill from there.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The series would go on to release 6 episodes, the finale of the series being released March 14, 2021, a full year after its debut. The series can viewed here. And for those interested in viewing the original version filmed by razanak7, the completed series can be found here.

comment
Adaptation Expansion: The series greatly expands upon plot points and character developments in the original series, adding in a plethora of new or recontextualized scenes. The most immediate change is that everyone talks now. The original series filmed in Melee conveyed dialogue through text and the occasional in-game voice clip. The original series makes it quite blatant that it's set in a video game, with several characters commenting on mechanics specific to Melee. The remake removes all traces of these mentions, although it remains set during the period in which Melee was relevant (2001-2006, with the main events occurring toward the end of 2005). Characters who had minor roles in the Melee series, like Link and Roy, are given more development. The remake also gives roles to characters that played no part in the original, like Falco and Mario.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

The original series has Razanak abduct every fighter except for Fox at the end, including Mewtwo. For no given reason, though, Mewtwo magically reappears in time to help Fox defeat the entity. The remake keeps Mewtwo and Fox paired up for the entirety of the final battle, and the duel with Razanak comes after a lengthy battle against several corrupted fighters.

comment
In the original series' finale, Fox and Pichu are brought back to life following a complex ritual. To maintain a Bittersweet Ending, the remake keeps both of them dead (though their spirits briefly appear as Mewtwo prays for them in the Temple's cathedral).

comment
Razanak, aka the entity controlling Fox for part of the series, is given slightly more background. In the original, he was simply a recolored Fox with no motivation beyond wanting to be a god. In the remake, Razanak is a demonic creature of unknown origin (his appearance being updated to that of a red-colored Ridley reflects this) who has conquered and destroyed countless other worlds by manipulating others to his whims.

comment
Fox's Start of Darkness was only explained through a brief Info Dump in the original series. In the remake, it is conveyed through two separate montages—Fox maintaining his winning streak for several years, followed by the string of continuous losses which embittered him.
