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.

There are many forms of rhymes, most common being an end-rhyme, but there are others.

Isn't Fatal Frame co-owned by Nintendo and Koei Tecmo? That would explain why a Fatal Frame Rep could happen before more iconic Koei Tecmo characters. Plus I think a Fatal Frame character has been considered before.

Sorta :4greninja:'d

Since E3 is in three days and no amazing leaks have came.
I am not surprised.

Also I doubt we are going to get any Smash news before E3.

The last one was localized though, and that came out in like 2015, I think? I don't think getting a fatal frame character is out of the question tbh. How did that game sell anyway?
The last one was on the Wii U. Also, Fatal Frame is just too dark to represent in Smash. It's a survival horror game .

I'm on the opposite side here, that we have already gotten smash news and it's a rumor that is going to be confirmed at E3. Whether it's verge's or someone completely different.

Implying a stealth game with heavy handed political commentary isn't too dark for Smash.
Metal Gear isn't as dark and bleak as Fatal Frame. Metal Gear is an over the top stealth game with comedic elements. Fatal Frame is a dark, bleak horror game. There's a difference between the two franchises.

"Fire Emblem has enough representation, another character wouldn't get in"
"Bayonetta is too risqué for Nintendo, she would never get in."
"Cloud didn't even debut on a Nintendo console, there's no way he'd get in."

I'm pretty sure that is a type of rhyme... or at least it is in spanish, dunno if english works different.
Traditionally, English poetry works as follows:

Cat and hat display rhyming.
Cat and lap display assonance.
Cat and fit and pet display consonance.
Cat and cup and call display alliteration.

Sakurai himself appear in front of me in a dream and told me what characters are gonna be in this new smash, but since he speaks japanese i didn't understand anything, so I'm gonna say that this Raptor from Jurassic Park is gonna be the next smash character:

And it will be confirmed in E3 of not this year, but from the year 2056, so save this message for then.

Wait, doesn't Fatal Frame use a camera to deal with ghosts? I can see whoever may be in to represent that series team up with Luigi and his Poltergeist vacuum in an Adventure mode if there was one. LOL

Which just makes me think he saw the ''These hints are too ez" and upped for **** and giggles. He's playing with people through and through and it shows.
I wonder if this newcomer has anything to do with that "P" character RelaxAlax hinted at. I bet they're connected somehow.

:p

Finally...

A new Yoshi rep is well deserved.

Alright. Just for curiosity.


You got to pick 3 Newcomers. One being the one you want most out of anything and anyone. The second a character just to please it's fans. The last will be the character you despise the most.
1: Dixie Kong - My most wanted character since I saw Smash for the first time
2: King K.Rool - Please "the fans"... would please me too.
3: Waluigi - I already dislike Wario enough. Waluigi is one character who inclusion would make me sad. For me his presence would literally turn the game in a worse game. Complete garbage.

Wait, this just occurred to me.

Is Luigi's Mansion technically an E for Everyone example of the horror genre?

Okay buckaroos. Assume that this roster is real and that Daruk is a stand in for your choice of the BotW Champions. How would you react?

Dixie, Elma, Ridley, Isabelle, Decidueye, and Mipha with icies, wolf and snake coming back? Yes PLEASE. And I'm cool with Toad, Celica, and Simon.

If only this had Bandana Dee and Impa tho.

Wouldn't then be an assonance rhyme?
blade and game ?
No, though I understand the confusion. While all rhyming is assonance, not all assonance is rhyme. In order for words in English to be considered "rhyming," the "stressed vowel sound in both words must be identical, as well as any subsequent sounds."

This makes "cat" and "hat" rhymes, but not "cat" and "cap".

Right. Rhyming is traditionally defined as both assonance AND consonance together.

However, many poems and works have taken heavy creative liberties with this.

Dissapointed in no Springman (or any ARMS rep) and genuinely surprised about the absence of a new Kirby rep.

But literally any roster that has Ridley and doesn't mess around too much with the original roster, is a perfect roster to me lol.
