Welcome to the ninetieth episode of the Hidden Details blog!
Have you found some obscure reference or detail in this comic? A JoJo reference? A sneaky little Loss? A callback to a previous comic? Let us know what you've found in the comments! Every detail that has been found will be added to the list below. Once everything has been found, this comic will officially be marked with "all details found".
Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!
There ONE Loss, ONE Balthazar, and NO JoJo reference. Bonus panels don't count.
1: A few names of fighters are visible on Incineroar's note. He does indeed seem to use the order as on the website, Dirtydan8991!
2: Incineroar is wearing tiny glasses while in research mode. He indeed must have bad eyesight, Phloxiana!
3: There's indeed a little doodle of Balthazar on the whiteboard, lillbro64! Whether he's part of the team I'm not sure, but it's a nice doodle nonetheless.
4: Speaking of doodles, seems like Incineroar and Kazuya drew some nice self-portraits too.
5: You're right Zach. On the "PLAN DE CAMPAGNE" whiteboard, it seems like they have no idea where to start after counting the bodies.
6: There's a cliche "HOME" sign visible in the second panel but it's not THAT cliche because it is, indeed, made from letters from the Mario, Pokémon, Metroid and Zelda logos, respectively. Good eye, John Hattan.
7: There's a "Lakitu Productions" sign next to Lakitu's front door. He provides services like creating reveal trailers, 3D platformer camera work (Mario 64), karting rescue services and annoying enemy services. These are all, of course, references to his appearances in past games. Thanks for noticing, Marwan Abunura!
8: Lakitu has a family! You can see them in the fourth panel, on a shelf above his computer. Good catch, Luke.
9: The loss this week was upside-down and kind of blurry, but you found it Tejayes! It's in the final panel, on the sheets on Lakitu's desk.
10: In the fourth panel, you can see a film real with "final fighter trailer". Kind of hard to spot, but Trigger got it. Seems like the trailer is already produced...
11: On Lakitu's cloud, one can notice a small metal hole. That's where the camera goes in the official Lakitu render for Mario Kart TV in Mario Kart 8 (Deluxe). Found by Jake Lyde.
After one week, I'll reveal all the details that haven't been found. These ones are written in italic.
