Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

Has Ninty ever really gotten into the console wars, though? They’re still making stuff for the 3DS, and that’s getting close to 10 at this point. Nintendo’s new gen consoles have always been way offset from the others.

Also, the Switch just released last March. It’s still a bit early to be considering the successor so soon...
Less a successor, more an upgrade. I honestly think Nintendo should wait out the last of this gen and the entirety of the next generation if they can.

I want the Switch to be the Gameboy of the home consoles, long-living as ****.

Nah, it's gonna be the rest of the cast from Fire Emblem: Awakening
Due to FEA being the hottest **** ever and justifying infinity+1 characters, we are now renaming this game Smash Emblem Awakening.

If spirits deconfirm, King Boo and E Gadd are deconfirmed, which is really weird. Like, why wouldn't you want to promote Luigi's ******* Mansion 3?

To be fair, FEA rebooted the franchise to a new version of what it is today, so it definitely left an impact.

:ultrobin: should definitely stay for introducing the avatar gimmick and also being pretty faithful to what FE is. Maybe :ultchrom: if :ultroy: gets kicked out, but for an inbetween for :ultmarth: and :ultrobin: I'd honestly pick an FE7 character *cough* Hector *cough* for being the landmark that made FE international.

i was rambling about the minimum for a fire emblem roster in smash dont mind me

Oh ****
Also a Pit spirit
Confirmation that playable characters can have differently-styled artwork as Spirits, as I suspected. Wonder what that Spirit battle would be?

Which means Geno and others are still on the table.

N-No! It's just a different version of the character! Geno's deconfirmed, I swear! The guy said they were gone for good, it has to be true even if I don't speak Japanese! It has to be!

The funniest thing is we've never seen Geno as a spirit. He was just an icon. Lol.

But those icons might have represented attached Spirits, but like...

Where are the Spirits? Where are the Square spirits? We've seen them from legit every third party company in the game except Square Enix.

Geno is probably a Spirit because he was already licensed with the Mii costume and such.

This is why people simply need to stop discredting him.

He's the only Square character who has had any type of internal discussions we've known about and to what extent we truly don't know.

That doesn't mean they didn't discuss other Square characters, but people should probably stop glossing over this fact in case it bites them in the ass later.

Geno isn't confirmed as a Spirit yet, but he is an icon for multiplayer (and I think icons are just Spirits, so that could mean he is a Spirit). Some people took that to mean he was deconfirmed, along with any other character who had a Spirit, even if the art for the Spirit doesn't match whatever art they might have if they were a fighter.

Honestly I'd be insulted if my character wasn't a Spirit but was an icon at best.
Some Spirits can only be crafted, right? He may be one of those and we haven't had the access to view it.

To get Geno, combine Wood-man with Starfy.

Icons aren't spirits. Compare the art on the Majora's Mask Moon online icon to it's spirit. I made a post going into more detail yesterday. Somewhat related but I find it interesting that the only confirmed DLC character (PP) doesn't have a spirit.

You know I was kinda hoping for an argument to post this but whatever.
Anyone who cries about characters like Bayonetta or Corrin or whatever ruining the integrity of the Smash roster can **** off. This is the same game that has Mario In Different Clothes, Baby Pikachu, Samus In A Different Outfit, Link But A Child, Link But A Cartoon Child, you get the idea. If you still believe the character you didn't like made Smash lose it's spirit then you're honestly just a ****ing child

Let Gwen rant. It's for the best otherwise it stores up inside of her like bile and poisons her. She needs to let it out to save her life.

Plus she has a point, but you know it was a little out of nowhere and worded aggressively.
Fisher's right, if I don't say **** enough times during the day, I start suffering heart failure

Honestly?
The only thing good thing about Spirits possibly deconfirming characters means that almost every competition is eliminated as far as survivor candidates go.
