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.

Of course he does! That costume has stayed there since 64 and it is relevant to a pretty important villain in F-Zero, so there is no way they would remove it.
You say that, but Mario has lost his Jumpman, Wario and Fire Mario alts. They remove alts for no reason all the time.

They gave Mario more vibrant and beautiful alts.
Like his wedding and Mario Maker outfit.

I love the new alts!

Nothing proves that's permanent when we're lacking preconfirmed alts.

On the topic of Alts, this is just a thought. But we saw a Meta Ridley alt in his trailer, yet not at the demo, maybe unlockable, model changing Alts are a thing?

Well, they don't always follow the rule of 8 when it comes to alts.

Little Mac for some reason had 16...

I wouldn't trade Fire Mario for anything.

All signs point to 8 costumes a character. Hoping for otherwise is setting yourself up for a disappointment.

I hope we get more than 8 for some characters. A lot of people are assuming that Riddles' black color is a placeholder for Meta-Ridley, but it actually looks good in its own right. And look at that color selector for Little Mac - DLC anyone?

Especially for characters like the Zelda crew who have had loads of different looks.

Mario I'm a little annoyed that he lost Jumpman and Fire Mario, but kept Waluigi (which really makes no sense for him). Still, builder Mario is all kinds of awesome.

Another "leak." Nothing about characters though.

Got some new info for you smash ******. Don't expect anything substantial since there's nothing about playable characters.

Assist Trophies:

>The "Everyone is Here!" motto applies to Assist Trophies as well.

>FE: Ryoma and Xander

>Mother: Duster

>F-Zero: Jody Summers

>SF: Charlie Nash

>Other: Ayumi Tachibana


Stages:

>Metal Cavern is returning as a properly playable stage.

>FoD, Brinstar Depths and Poke Floats are returning. The latter is the same stage, but with Mimikyu added to represent Gen 7.

>Pirate Ship and Hanenbow are retuning.

>Orbital Gate Assault is returning. Pyrosphere is up in the air right now, but my source is leaning towards it being but, based on their own, personal speculation.

Off topic: don't be surprised if Stealth ( S Stealth___ on twitter) is right regarding a Direct in the second half of August.

Yeah, well, go to heck.

They actually updated it so it's equal to Blood's real suit.
Oh awesome. You know what, if he wasn’t demo playable (which I assume he wasn’t after reading that costume wiki page) and they made that change, I’m going to hope they at least give it a little different announcer voice and make him a koopaling type alt if not an echo they accidentlaly revealed.

You say that, but Mario has lost his Jumpman, Wario and Fire Mario alts. They remove alts for no reason all the time.
I can live without jumpman, it’s a shame and I picked that a lot. But I can live. I understand getting rid of Wario, he’s in the game. But man, getting rid of Fire Mario just burns.

The reason was wire frame Mac. It’s a pretty good reason.

If you're proven wrong I will do the biggest glow up in history. :roll:

Who's ready for 16 player Smash?
And 32 Ice Climbers.
you're reminding me of the weird ways melee let you do tournaments by interconnecting other gamecubes to let other players join

Really they should have at least one Fire Emblem Assist Trophy per Fire Emblem character... like Caeda for Marth, Azura for Corrin, etc etc... It's criminal that Lyn is the only FE Assist.

I just noticed something. Yoshi is the only one of the 10 original franchises (of Smash 64) to not have Assist Trophy representation. Hoping for Poochy, Huffin Puffins or Toadies
The best we can hope for is that they reuse Kamek from Smash Run.

Yeah, to be fair, it IS pretty hard to participate in the Olympics when you're in jail for committing tax fraud.
Yoshi just can’t stop with the tax fraud

It’s criminal that Lyn isn’t playable

At this point here's how I feel talking to others about Lyn
View attachment 151556
I'd honestly love to see Lyn in Smash Bros. She's the most popular lord based off of the first Choose Your Legends poll (Which the devs thought Lucina was going to win) and could definitely bring something new to the table with her fast and flashy fighting style. She can also use a bow, which opens up more possibilities.

Lyn for Smash Ultimate DLC. Lets make it happen guys.

Young Link is in today's update, guys.
>Fourth of July
>Young Link and not Captain Falcon

Sakurai has failed us.

DK really should have at least Rambi (who's just like Gogoat but better).

Also, Cranky Kong, who appears on a Rocking Chair and moans at you like Mr. Resetti, except he rambles about how much better games were in his day, and how much better he would be at this game. Naturally, you can't get rid of him until he leaves on his own.

I think every franchise in smash should have at least one assist trophy. ATs exist so characters who didn't make the cut can still be represented, every series has a few of those.
