Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

If you're watching on Twitch PS4, you can still go to their channel and have it ready for when they go online. That's what I'm doing.

Huh. I did not think of that.
Thanks.

 

[MoonlitIllusion]

My most basic expectations:

-At least 5 of the original 8 will be shown.
-At least two starters from Melee, Brawl, and SSB4.
-Three newcomers with one being third party.
-At least two veterans shown with major moveset revamps.

Considering there's a whole tournament happening I'm expecting to see at least 20 characters total, same as the wii u's invitational

OOH Masuda tweeted at Sakurai after his tweet this morning. Pokemon in Smash revealed today?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[TheWozny]

So a new Konami game got revealed silently...

If Ridley does get in, Ridley supporters should not attack Ridley opposers with "I told you so" messages and other things like that, and vice versa if he doesn't get in. If I see any posts antagonizing users for wanting/not wanting Ridley then I will report them to the mods and they will be dealt with accordingly.

No better shirt to wear today, if you ask me~.

I understand, Mr. Iwata, I understand....

 

[Curious Villager]

Lol I'm watching it on WiiU. wtf Nintendo I should be able to watch this on my Switch!

Same here actually, my pc sometimes crashes during live streams. And since I don't want to risk that, I'm watching on Wii U, thank goodness they haven't removed Wi-fi from that yet since you can't watch live streams on Switch yet.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Is anyone expecting a character reveal at the Invitational? We didn't get one at the last one.

How the **** you want Ridley supporters to attack if they will all die of an heart attack after seeing the big dragon on smash?

 

[monadoboy]

I had a nightmare last night that my stream crashed for 10 minutes after a Ridley reveal and I'm scared now

Interesting... I really hope they reveal the pokemon newcomer as thats one of the newcomer characters I assume we are getting that I have the most difficulty trying to predict which pokemon they'll choose.

Omg.. ATHLETE.

Ah, right, didn't consider that. They didn't allow dittos at the SSB4 Invitational so that'll probably be the case here too.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Time has slowed to a crawl. How is it the last 3 days went by so fast and these last 30 minutes feel like an eternity.

 

[?????????????]

On Sora...

It’d be perfect for this E3. Several conferences showing off Kingdom Hearts III, ending with Sora for Smash? What an awesome build-up!

 

[Jetsurge]

I'm back! I was going to watch the direct in the morning but I can't sleep, I'm too hyped! I guess the hype train doesn't stop for anyone.

 

[Bradli Wartooth]

Yeah, tbh I think having the Pokemon argument out of the way will be a major favor for all of us. That's one conversation I'm just tired of having.

 

[Burruni]

So. In our last hour, I wanna do two bits of roster.
"Open" which basically breaks down my ideas for slots for the characters I'm not truly confident in.
"Filled" which is what my bias would fill everything with.

Spoiler

2 clones, 4 other characters for new series or filling our existing ones, 2 3rd parties, and a retro that nobody ever guesses properly.

(Let me believe)
Dixie becoming a wolf-tier clone and Ribbon Girl being a more traditional barely-different clone seem like natural fits.

No, I don't expect cuts.

 

[Zeox]

The new game is called "Super Smash mouth" and it will have at least 10 Shreks.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Imagine that the Direct starts with the Splatoon teaser from before, but this time instead of cutting to the logo, it showcases all the silhouettes and then goes straight to gameplay.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I'm so hype right now.

I feel like Sakurai won't let us down. He's about to put on a performance.

 

[Bradli Wartooth]

The new game is called "Super Smash mouth" and it will have at least 10 Shreks.

Now that's an "All Star" roster

 

[Opossum]

With a half hour remaining, I've never related to Zephiel more than I do now.

Spoiler

 

[Superyoshiom]

I'm so hype right now.

I feel like Sakurai won't let us down. He's about to put on a performance.

He and Masuda have been hyping it on twitter. He says you need to watch this live. I'm shaking right now.

 

[T-Hell]

So what's the estimated time for the Direct at last?

 

[papagenos]

Yeah, tbh I think having the Pokemon argument out of the way will be a major favor for all of us. That's one conversation I'm just tired of having.

Yeah, I can probably name like 8 pokemon who all have a pretty good chance of being the pokemon newcomer rep. Theres not really an obvious choice this time theres like 4 or 5 most likely choices with another 3 or so also possible ones, its a headache trying to predict which one will be chosen.

 

[Mogu]

A little less than 30 minutes til it starts, I'm pumped!
Listening to this right now in the meantime.
Any predictions for Smash Switch's actual name?

 

[Jetsurge]

He and Masuda have been hyping it on twitter. He says you need to watch this live. I'm shaking right now.

Lucky I stayed up for it then

 

[Superyoshiom]

So what's the estimated time for the Direct at last?

Everyone's saying around 40-45ish, but I can see Nintendo reducing it to 20-25 at the last second

 

[A Distant Demon]

Emergency mode has activated.

30 minutes until cataclysm

 

[Superyoshiom]

Lucky I stayed up for it then

Where are you located, right here it's the morning and I'm watching this while at work.

 

[Wyoming]

I am having damn goosebumps, fellas.

25 mins!

 

[Bradli Wartooth]

Btw how has this not made its way here yet? Y'all are slacking.

 

[SquashiniKun]

Gonna listen to this song while i wait for the inevitable disappointment.

 

[Zeox]

Remember everyone to go to the bathroom so you don't have to do it in the middle of the stream!

 

[Nameless Kot]

So once the direct finish, what else will be there to see? Will it be the invitational? And could we see it from the same link for the direct?

 

[.Shìkì]

They have actually managed to bring it home without massive credible leaks... This is Madness!

Lol holy **** will that "Athelete" leak end up being real?

 

[Superyoshiom]

So once the direct finish, what else will be there to see? Will it be the invitational? And could we do it from the same link for the direct?

I believe everything's streamed from the same link.

Treehouse as well throughout the day.
