Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[praline]

Oh just wait a day. We'll be out of the... "drought", and then be right back into it 10 minutes later.

The drought never ends, boys!

 

[SmashChu]

If I was going to make a prediction it would probably be a new Pokemon. Seems about time and it lines up with what we've seen on the site.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

Alright, I'll bite.

I wish that Morrigan was a newcomer.

Granted, but since she's sexy and is a bat, there's no downside.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Would help if we got some gameplay videos or something to pass the time.

We got two videos showcasing 2 of the new echoes and K.Rool. Would be neat to see the same for Simon and Richter.

Would also help if the blog (aside from new music) wasn't just a summary of:
- Stuff we've already seen
- Content already on the website itself

At least we know they'll eventually run out of confirmed characters, unless they do another huge dump (which is unlikely).

The drought never ends, boys!

So, like coming across a bottle of water in a desert? Sounds accurate.

Granted, but since she's sexy and is a bat, there's no downside.

Cool, though I would have expected her 3-D model being recycled from the Vs. Capcom series.

 

[Pyra]

I'm just patiently waiting to be right about Yink's and Peach's and Daisy's final smashes so I can finally take that line out of my sig.

 

[T-Hell]

I'm watching the latest GameXplain prediction video for the Direct and Jon thinks Isabelle could be a full fledged newcomer with a moveset based on summoning other villagers. Maybe if you add to that stuff based on her job (books, projects, etc), it could be interesting enough.. And her final smash could be the same as Villager's but with a Town Hall instead of a house.

Since you guys were too busy discussing gay characters AGAIN, I'm reposting this. Thoughts?

 

[Ra-Ha-Horakhty]

Time for a fun bet:

If Shadow isn't announced as playable in Smash tomorrow I'll donate £1 to cancer research for each like this gets within the next 24 hours. pic.twitter.com/x5bP9yHOAT

I kinda hope OP loses this bet.

 

[LetterO]

Said it once and I'll say it again.

If Isabelle gets a unique moveset while Dark Samus, Dark Pit, and Shadow (assuming he's in and an aecho) are echos, then that's going to hurt me deeply.

 

[Sleeps with Butterflies]

Methinks he doth protest too much.

 

[Pyra]

Cool. Unlikely.

 

[Iridium]

Granted, but since she's sexy and is a bat, there's no downside.

I guess you like this kind of bat too?

Sorry, I just had to show this again.

YIKES! to both of these.

 

[Iridium]

I can say most of us guessed this was a thing with Ridley's FS, but it seems characters don't get KO'd if they don't reach 100%, like Zelda and Bayonetta. They just plop down to the stage afterwards.

 

[Pyra]

YIKES! to both of these.

If you aren't confident in your predictions you shouldn't make 'em

Be confident no matter how ridiculous. Good rule.


Also, don't be jealous of the TRUE Batman, Gen 1 Golbat

I think that compiles to all characters

K rools probably on that boat too 100% or higher is ko

If not they just fall back on the stage

 

[Deleted member]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

 

[Zinith]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

100 due solely to Yoshi's Crafted World

 

[Pazzo.]

We are not ready.

Spoiler: Less than one day remains...

 

[JustCallMeJon]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

Over 9000!

 

[Deleted member]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

68. Because that's our next fighter number.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

50. It could go either very good or very bad.

 

[Originality]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

Gonna give it a 73

 

[Hydrualic Hydra]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

69

For real though, hard 85. Not being certain of what to expect holds me back, but I'm strongly confident on Smash info and hearing more details about awaited games like Metroid Prime 4.

 

[Chrono.]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

45.5.

Exactly that.

 

[Pyra]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

100.
I feel good about this direct.

 

[Potato_]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

Now, about an 80.

If the direct starts with a smash reveal though? It'll be at 100.

 

[SquashiniKun]

So on a scale of 1-100, how excited is everyone for the Direct tomorrow?

89

I'm wondering what non smash stuff is gonna gonna show up in it.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

What do you think ZSS smells like? You know, just for the laughs haha

 

[Luigi The President]

Delete this right god damn now

100.

Cool! I’m personally at a 75. If we get anything related to a Smash reveal though, it’s going straight to a 100.

 

[Chrono.]

What do you think ZSS smells like? You know, just for the laughs haha

Let's not.

 

[Arcadenik]

Since you guys were too busy discussing gay characters AGAIN, I'm reposting this. Thoughts?

If Isabelle is an Echo Fighter, I just hope that her Final Smash summons Reese and Cyrus to build a Pocket Camp amenity instead of Tom Nook and Timmy & Tommy to build a house.

 

[Pyra]

Well, now that's definitely happening.

 

[Ra-Ha-Horakhty]

If she were real, she would never go out with you. So quit while you can.

 

[Venus of the Desert Bloom]

I do hope Isabelle would have alt costumes using her Spring and Fall uniforms. I was happy with the alt costumes in Smash 4 and even more so in Ultimate but I was really hoping for alts like Evil Ryu, Outset Toon Link, Mr L, Sporty Peach, etc.

 

[Pyra]

What do you think ZSS smells like? You know, just for the laughs haha

I'm sure if you tried she'd smell like a restraining order

 

[Zippo]

Tomorrow: Last general Direct of the year.

November: Smash Direct.

December: Game Awards Reveal.

That's how I see the rest of the year going, wouldn't expect anything else. Savor this hype, y'all.

 

[Luigi The President]

I do hope Isabelle would have alt costumes using her Spring and Fall uniforms.

Oh this would be too cute for words

 

[PSIguy89]

The REAL question is what does Ridley smell like??

 

[Radical Bones]

I can say most of us guessed this was a thing with Ridley's FS, but it seems characters don't get KO'd if they don't reach 100%, like Zelda and Bayonetta. They just plop down to the stage afterwards.

I wonder if that's how Bowser's punch works too. Cos from the footage, it looks like if it hits, you just die.
