Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Michael the Spikester]

What do you guys think the chances are that we get a direct this week?

Slight chance but probably won't. Wishful thinking.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Joker doesn't have a belt, don't make pull out concept art for his school's uniforms.

hey, it ain't a dumb smash theory without a few painfully obvious holes that we'll just nonchalantly ignore for the sake of proving the argument

 

[Dark Bagel]

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

A fully-fledged boss rush mode selectable from the main menu, as well as a couple of extra DLC bosses from various franchises already in Smash. Said boss lineup could look something like this:

1. Hades (Kid Icarus Uprising)
2. Titan Dweevil (Pikmin 2)
3. Balder (Bayonetta)
4. DJ Octavio (Splatoon)
5. Kefka Palazzo (Final Fantasy VI)

And DLC boss #6 could be some twisted fusion of both Tabuu from Brawl and the Master Core from Smash 4, bringing back two Smash final bosses for the price of one.

Her name is Lulu you uncultured swine

Pft. Whaaaat? I-I knew her name! I just...gave her a title so the peasants would understand.

...Yeah.

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

- COSTUMES! This is a goldmine for Nintendo yet they refuse to do it. IMAGINE if they gave every character an additional costume... they'd be rolling in dough.
- More items in Stage Builder
- Every stage NOT in Ult added in
- Squad Strike added to online

 

[Deleted member]

then I’m guessing the only option left is probably Dragonborn (Skyrim).

Ribbit ribbit

[Michael the Spikester]

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

-More Modes notably Break the Targets/Boad the Platforms, Boss Rush, All-Star Mode, New story mode like SSB or at least WoL expanded/turned in that.
-Additional bosses.
-More new stages

Would it be funny, that if Sakurai, trying avoid another " female Corrin is the cannon version" situation and made female Byleth the default

(to combat the "criticism" of how the DLC is a "sausage fest" and try to predict would be the fan favorite again)

But years later, Male Byleth becomes the cannon version

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Aw yiss! Gimme my ludicrously large, low-res Corneria!

I'd prefer male Byleth as the default, but I don't care as long as they're fun to play.

Ehhhh that wouldn't work as there's significantly more Femleth fanart. Remember, most Fire Emblem fans are either horny, women or both

Gwen spitting fire facts

 

[Night Gale]

What do you guys think the chances are that we get a direct this week?

I'm not sure about this week but this month seems very likely. Although I wouldn't be shocked if we got something this week.

Street Fighter, Tekken, Dead or Alive, Dbfz, Samsho, and Granblue Fantasy Vs all got December reveals and or releases. This is Super Smash's anniversary month and it is the holiday season. It makes too much goddamn sense.

 

[Guynamednelson]

It makes too much goddamn sense.

You say that like that matters.

 

[CureParfait]

- Arc System Works rep, but not Sol Badguy nor Ragna -> no other character is possible imo.
- Spike Chunsoft rep, but not Monokuma -> no other character is possible imo.

For Arc System I think Noel Vermillion might be possible given how Arc seems to treat her. Also for Spike Chunsoft I think Naegi Makoto ,Hinata Hajime, or Saihara Shuichi might be possible along with Monokuma.

 

[Night Gale]

Claude win.

 

[Dark Bagel]

That's it, that's Smash speculation in a nutshell.

Ah yes, 3 of life's certainties:

1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Ungrateful Smash fans

as long as he makes the male version an alt, i dont give a damn because I like male byleth way more but they are the same character anyway but if people wanna play the "I like female corrin because shes cute and boy is ugly" I can pull the "I like male byleth because hes cute and the girls clothing is awful" too

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Claude win.

Wrong again ***** most women I know in the FE fandom are gay as ****

You dig claude von riegan

I've yet to meet a female FE fan who was happy.

 

[Will]

Jokes on you

Women and Men alike would fall for Claude. That was his master scheme the whole time.

 

[venomthebest]

Question, where did the idea of Kos mos getting in smash come from?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Gay as in 'would be happy if we got to smooch other girls' you hetero

 

[Will]

process of elimination plus the BASED leaker people somehow not being able to cut down her when asked about her

she's the trend of the month

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

My guess is that they couldn't think of what the Battlefield/Ω form would look like. My idea for it would be that the main platform is an Avalugg baloon, and the smaller platforms are Stunfisk balloons.

As for the other stages with issues:
-Jungle Hijinks could have barrels appear around each fighter in the background so that they're blasted into the foreground before the Stage Morph kicks in.
-PAC-Maze could color the retreating ghosts the same color as the player's position (P1 is red, CPU is grey, I don't know the other colors 'cuz I'm a hermit but you get the idea). If multiple players got a PAC-Pellet (or whatever it's called) then the colors will cycle. It's kinda messy but powered up players also glow so you'll just have to have faith that the player will learn how it works.
-Orbital Gate Assault could...well the issue with that one is development time and no one really likes that stage so maybe they should just not on that one.

Is it bad that I didn't get why Spongeboob was implying all female Fire Emblem fans were depressed until you said this?

She could very well become the King K. Rool of this speculation cycle. Hopefully not though, I'd really rather not get burned out on the character.

 

[StarBot]

Hmmm, while you do have a point, (espically how horny and female dominated the series is) there have seen alot more criticism of female Byleth design and characterization

And according to the replies, it seems alot more people prefer the male

But it would be more instresting if you are right, because then I'll be even more curious why the fandom saw Robin as a male, but the other Avatars as female

 

[Will]

I'm going to revisit Kamen Rider, probably gonna watch the original series, 98 episodes and all. Time to go back to Nazi-fighting times.

She could very well become the King K. Rool of this speculation cycle. Hopefully not though, I'd really rather not get burned out on the character.

I wonder if KOS-MOS fans are happy that she finally has attention at the cost that they're all just piggybacking Sabi and have no real interest in Xenosaga.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

I dunno about characterization, but she does seem to have different proportions from the rest of the cast. That's why she bothers me at least.

Newflash: there's more to FE than your Edelgard circlejerk.

Tell that to Intelligent System

Oh, IS knows there's more. But they only know the circle of Awakening/Fates waifus at most.

 

[P.Kat]

Just make Capcom Versus!

Sc- Capcom vs the World

If there’s a Pokémon it’s gonna be Toxtricity

Toxtricity is a good choice, I personally would like Cinderace

Not gonna happen but I'd want Sakurai to say "**** it" and just add Alcremie to Smash. I shouldn't like a sentient cream puff so much but here we are.

Alcremie is also another favorite of mine from the Galar Region. Plus when I'm playing as it, it'll give me a chance to change my name tag to the 'Fullmetal Alcremist'.

Edit: image didn't load.

 

[Koopaul]

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

To allow us to use any music from any series on any stage. And to fix some of the problems with the Stage Hazards Off switch.

These are the two things I've wanted since the game released.

 

[Guynamednelson]

And to fix some of the problems with the Stage Hazards Off switch.

Is it making it so it's an option you can toggle between when choosing the stage's form?

I don't think you should be allowed to play every song on every stage, but they should expand each stage's song list to include every single song that was in their music pool (IE: Together We Ride on Temple)

 

[Will]

Sc- Capcom vs the World

mega man vs obama

 

[StarBot]

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

You know in certain Spirit battles, moving and transformation stages can be stuck to a centrain part of stage

Yeah please give us the option to do that

 

[Ivander]

to liven up the conversation: what non-character addition would you like to see?

-As someone mentioned, actual Alternate costumes.
-And would also like Smash Run to return, with some new features like settings to change time, change the ending game, etc, like Air Ride's City Trial.
